“Chris has been great with Stella, and she can be a handful. He’s very quick to respond and easy to schedule with! I would definitely recommend him.”
“Leonard was awesome to work with on all levels! He took care of my dog both as an in home sitter for overnight stay and for day sitting. He was extremely easy to work with as he would flex his hours everyday according to my schedule. My dog absolutely loved him! He took her to the beach and hiking and was always with her at home. He even bought her a toy on his last day which he let her select (not surprising that the toy closely resembles a squirrel :). Leonard also has a very pleasant and approachable personality - I would highly recommend him to take care of your dog. I look forward to Leonard and my dog reuniting on another stay!”
“Very reliable and a pleasure to work with. Would highly recommend.”
“Carla was so helpful with my old dog Reggie! She responded so quickly and last minute as well. She communicated super well and was very great with Reggie. It was a huge relief knowing Reggie was in such good hands.”
“Krystle has been great with my dog, who hates walks without me. My dog is happy to see her come to the door and enjoy the walks. Krystle is always on time and responsive to the needs of me and my dog. I’m so happy I found her on Rover.”
“Aria has watched and cared for Sierra prior to me joining rover. She has done a great job communicating with me and taking care of Sierra. This included overnights and giving her a pill each day. She has a dog of her own named Millie who gets along with Sierra.”
“Leyla was a great, reliable walker for us when we were in need. There was one day where the walk wasn’t recorded with Rover, but we are able to confirm she came via our home cameras. We would definitely feel comfortable booking her for a walk again!”
About: Having been raised around dogs and cats my entire childhood, as well as raising my own pets since adulthood, I am more than excited to take care of yours! I am wide open during summertime, but work school hours during the school year. I have open availability on the weekends and after school for both overnights and walks. During the day, I would be able to take your pup out in the am, at lunch and afterschool. My friends joke that my dog is my fourth child and they are definitely correct. I believe in routines first, of course, but also letting a dog guide you as the day goes on.
About: Hi, I’m Connor! What sets me apart is that I’ve been surrounded by expert-level dog care my entire life. My mom was a vet tech for over 10 years, and for the past 20, she’s been a professional dog walker, boarder, and trainer. Growing up in that environment, I’ve gained hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Whether it’s walking, boarding, or just giving them lots of love and attention, I genuinely enjoy caring for dogs like they’re part of the family. Pet care is my full-time job, so I’m available 7 days a week for dog walking, drop-ins, and house sitting. I have a completely open and flexible schedule, which means I can follow your pet’s routine exactly — whether that’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, evening feedings, or overnight stays. I’m reliable, responsive, and fully dedicated to keeping your pets safe, happy, and loved while you're away. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize safety, comfort, and respect for your space. I follow your instructions closely to keep your pet’s routine consistent and reduce stress. During walks and visits, I make sure all doors and gates are securely closed and never leave your pet unattended outside. I keep open communication with you throughout my visits, providing updates and photos to give you peace of mind. Your pet’s safety and well-being, along with respect for your home, are my top priorities.
About: I loves dogs. I have been lucky enough to own a few over the years, but circumstances have not let me as much as I would like (either because I traveled a lot, I rented and no dogs were allowed, or I have not been sure I could be there for them for 10-17 years as needed. Being a dog sitter and walker, I can give your dog the love I have and get outside and enjoy our wonderful locations with your dogs. I am recently retired and trying to determine my next move--which means right now, my schedule and availability are very open. I am hoping this will be a great addition to my days. I have 2 cats at this time--I feed them twice a day (dry food and wet) and clean their kitty litter on a regular basis. I also spend time with them (usually with them lying on top of me. My cats are ~12 years old. One cat needs medication every other day--and I give this to her. I also cut their nails whenever it is needed. I would take care of my client's animals how the client wants them cared for--I would feed them when they need it, walk them or play with them for at least a set amount of time, and I would respect their boundaries (I would not force myself on them--but I will not let them get out of control and chase other animals or people.). I love animals and always have--and they seem to know this.
“Rachel is very conscientious and you can see she really cares about the wellbeing of my dogs. She is comfortable handling my slightly reactive but otherwise docile pack. I would get her again.”

“Christopher was awesome. My magnificent, high energy, but somewhat reactive two-year-old, immediately loved him. Christopher matched my dog’s energy and athleticism, taking him on long walks that left him ready to sprawl and fall asleep afterward – – which is exactly what he needs. I think Christopher would adjust to the needs of any dog, he genuinely likes them and understands them. I feel lucky to have found him to play with my boy while I am sidelined with a broken ankle. He has my complete endorsement, great guy.”
“We did a great meet n greet with Nicole on Lizzys tiggers and preferences. Nicole has a bunch of great questions and took time to understand Liz. We scheduled a couple of walks with Nicole, and Liz looks forward to more walks in the future.”
“Mari is AWESOME!!! Mari is the first dog walker I ever used. My dog is very needy and has his ways and routines. Mari adapted to his needs immediately. She is gentle. She loves to talk to my dog. (He understood everything she said.) She is conscious and in-tune with him. Mari put me at ease. (I’m a little overprotective of my pup.) I will use her again and again. I feel he’s safe with Mari and it gives me a feeling of relief. Thank you!”

Larkspur dog parents share their Rover experiences
Amber was super communicative, responsive, and great with our pups! Highly recommended her services to all.
Sarah was absolutely the BEST!! I feel so fortunate that we found her. I was nervous to leave my dog but when I started communicating with Sarah I knew our pup would be fine. Not only was our dog fine.. she had a great day with Sarah! I would 1000% use her again!
We hired Carolina to walk our dogs when we had to go out of town for the day. I always get anxious trusting my dogs and home to a new person, but Carolina was wonderful. She was friendly, punctual, and a great communicator. She followed all my instructions, was sweet to my dogs and sent lots of pics from their walk. I came home to safe and happy dogs. I’m so glad we found her and hope to hire her again!
Leyla was terrific with my dog Ollie. She provided lots of photos and a pre-walk report. Very friendly and responsible. Highly recommend!
Samantha is fantastic! She fit us into her schedule on short notice to do a meet & greet with our pups before traveling for the holiday weekend. Couldn’t recommend her enough! Great communication and the dogs loved her. Thank you!
Lydia was easy to contact and knowledgeable. My Max seemed way calmer and happier when he got home, was really happy to see it.
Jill gave me honest feedback about my sweet pup’s walk, was early, and available to chat about his walk.
Chris has been great with Stella, and she can be a handful. He’s very quick to respond and easy to schedule with! I would definitely recommend him.
Aria has watched and cared for Sierra prior to me joining rover. She has done a great job communicating with me and taking care of Sierra. This included overnights and giving her a pill each day. She has a dog of her own named Millie who gets along with Sierra.
Hannah was amazing. Super communicative, right on time, and she was very kind with Sky, our special needs dog. I’d work with her any time. I’m
Gretchen was super communicative and our dogs were so happy! Will definitely have her walk our pups again :)
So great with my rescue! She can be a bit timid at gist but Kristina worked on her until she warmed up
David has been a joy for our dog (Luna). Very intuitive, thoughtful and Luna is so happy when I come home. I highly recommend David, he’s responsible and communicates well!
Elizabeth was wonderful with my dog! She sent updates and photos each day, and I could tell my pup was happy and comfortable.
Mia is so responsible and communicative, and our dog is so happy when she comes to take care of her!
Allie was the best! She was able to come at such short notice - I was down with the stomach flu and she took my 4-month old high energy GSP for an hour hike within an hour of me reaching out. She was very communicative, punctual, friendly, and my GSP enjoyed a nice long hike with her. Thank you, Allie!
Enlin did a fantastic job walking my dog! She was punctual, kind, and clearly great with animals. My pup came back happy and well-exercised. I appreciated the updates and care she provided—highly recommend!
Mari is the best of the best. Our 3 year old cockapoo has a lot of energy and can be reactive on walks if not properly stimulated. But with Mari, we have zero worries because she is a dog whisperer. She is dependable and she genuinely loves our dog. We get great updates and sweet photos — it makes a huge difference knowing our dog is cared for and exercised when we’re at work. Thank you, Mari. You’re an absolute treasure.
Krystle is the best. My dog Bella loves her and she has been so great at helping us when we had last minute needs! Highly recommend her!
Thomas has been a life saver for us with our dog Guinness. He is always on time, he is reliable, he is patient with our somewhat moody, large dog, and he has become our regular walker 3x per week. Thomas is super responsive to messages and seems to genuinely enjoy spending time with Guinness. I highly recommend Thomas !
