About: I love animals and I have my own fur baby, a gentle giant cane corso! I follow instructions given from pawrent and like to see other pets personalities. I’m currently working part time and full time student. Sundays are my only free days and being around pets would be a great way to not worry about school or work! I listen and follow instructions! As a fur parent, I know how important it is to have structure and routine in a pets life. Can’t wait to meet them!
About: I have a childhood dog that lives with my parents and two young kitties that live with me. I have experience with both and know how different personalities can be! I work Monday through Friday in a hybrid position but make my own schedule therefore can work around your pets needs. I am an active person that enjoys walks and playing with cats and dogs. I have a gated driveway that is used occasionally but remains closed if no car is going in or out. It is big enough for your pet to play in and there is a backyard where they can go potty. I will always be with them when outside and they can be in their crate inside or I don't mind giving them extra cuddles on the couch.

“Thanks Rebecca! Rebecca did such an amazing job! Rocket and Benji misses her already! Love all of the detailed info from the walk and how you took care of them by wetting the dog run area and giving them extra water.”
About: I really treat every dog like they’re my own — because I know what that love feels like. I have a dog named Ace who’s been with me for five years, and caring for him has taught me patience and trust is. I focus on making each visit calm, positive, and reliable so your pup actually looks forward to seeing me. I have experience training puppies, so I’m gentle and consistent while helping them build good habits. I also understand the extra care seniors need — slower walks, comfort, mobility support, and keeping an eye on medications and routines. My goal is simple: keep your dog safe, happy, and loved while you’re away, also keep you updated. I have lots of treats if allowed. FIRST TIME DISCOUNTS AVAILABLE My schedule is an open book. I do work part time so I do have plenty of time to respond and make due. Please feel free to message me anytime. I will respond as soon as possible. I provide attentive care tailored to each pet’s routine and personality. In my home or a client’s home, I follow feeding schedules, refresh water, clean litter boxes, administer basic medications if needed, and ensure a safe environment. I also prioritize playtime at the dog park or ate home, affection, and regular check-ins to keep pets comfortable. I have a fenced in yard and kennels if needed.

“Allie and her husband were reliable, punctual, and followed all instructions carefully. Most importantly, my dogs had a great time playing with them at the dog park. I felt very comfortable trusting them with my dogs.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and pets of all kinds for over 15 years. From walking, feeding, and bathing to helping with senior care and even the more energetic pups, I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and happy. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to treat their pets like my own, because to me, pets are family 🥹♥️🐾 I am self-employed and primarily work from home, which allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day. I’m available to take dogs out for walks and care routines 2–3 times daily as needed. I can also board one or two pets overnight (for pets from the same household). My schedule is flexible, and I’m happy to accommodate requests unless I already have prior commitments. I treat every fur baby like family while keeping their routine consistent. My fenced yard is safe and supervised, and I use a natural spray to keep bugs away. Whether it’s walks, feeding, or cuddle time, your pet will always feel loved. And if they aren’t allowed on beds at home, the same rules apply here too, your house rules are my house rules. 🐾💛
“Crystal was amazing! It was my first time using Rover and I was super nervous, but she made it such a great experience. She kept in touch the whole time, even made time for a meetup, and was the sweetest with my little Chloe. I loved that she sent me picture updates too. I’d definitely recommend her if you’re looking for a pet sitter!💗🐶”
About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and caring for them like they’re my own. I have experience walking, feeding, and watching dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’m patient, attentive, and make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me a lot of availability right now. This allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine and give each pet plenty of attention. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. In a client’s home, I make sure pets feel comfortable in their familiar space, keep things clean, and give them plenty of attention and care.
About: I’ve been a nanny for 5 years now and while providing childcare, pet care is another responsibility I confidently take on. I do it all from pet walks, feeding, picking up waste and playing. I also grew up with a poodle that lived for 15 years, he was a birthday gift so he was my responsibility and I learned a lot about pet care at a young age. I’m doing school online so I have a lot of flexibility to help out. On my free time I love to hang out with my (furry) friends! My home is closed off with a large fence that’s the ideal environment for a small dog, possibly medium. I stick to whatever routines/schedules you have for your dog.
About: I have a love for dogs, I grew up owning dogs! From an early age I learned how to properly care for them as well as basic training. I am dedicated to keeping your pet safe and happy, just as you are. I will provide regular updates and can be a reliable sitter. I work from home so my schedule is flexible both during the week and on weekends. I love walking during the day as well as the opportunity to host your pet in my home. I do not currently have a pet in my home so your pet would be the center of attention. I have a great neighborhood for walking. I have grown up walking and caring for both small and large dogs on leashes and in the home.
About: Hi! I just moved from Boston to Costa Mesa. I have a hybrid role in finance so I have flexibility to hang out with your pet. I have worked with pets of all ages, sizes, and backgrounds for the last few years. I currently don’t have any pets of my own :( I am primarily on rover for fun to spend time with animals and I am so excited! Your pets safety and happiness is my priority. - experience with walking, washing, training dogs - dog sat for neighbors and friends since I was young - began officially dog sitting in my hometown doing house sitting with dogs, taking care of elderly dogs, dog walking - love to teach dogs new tricks! Available for boarding/drop ins on weekends. Available for walks/drop ins most days depending on the time (just let me know what works!). Typically available for anything else after 2 PM most weekdays. I am near a handful of parks and dog parks where I typically walk many dogs. My neighborhood has a lot of dogs that walk in the area.
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and my experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve raised multiple puppies, cared for senior dogs with special needs, and currently have three large rescue dogs at home. I’m patient, attentive, and confident handling everything from basic training to nervous or shy pups. I treat every dog like family, prioritizing their safety, comfort, and lots of love! I work from home and have a flexible schedule Monday through Friday, so pet care fits easily into my day. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day, and adjust my schedule around each dog’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their routine to keep their pets comfortable and stress-free. I can handle feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions they provide. I make sure each visit is calm, consistent, and focused on keeping their pet happy and safe (with lots of pets and cuddles!)
“Andrea is a amazing sitter and dog walker. My dog and cats love seeing her. She's caring, detail oriented, and just plain loves these animals. She even left a thank you card for us, highly recommend!”
Laurelhurst dog parents share their Rover experiences
Nao did an amazing job walking our dog, Morty. She was prompt with great communication and she was able to take our request on short notice around the holidays. Morty really liked her and we got so many cute photos of the walk. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Nao again!
Crystal was amazing! It was my first time using Rover and I was super nervous, but she made it such a great experience. She kept in touch the whole time, even made time for a meetup, and was the sweetest with my little Chloe. I loved that she sent me picture updates too. I’d definitely recommend her if you’re looking for a pet sitter!💗🐶
Jess is absolutely amazing! She took incredible care of Lowe while we were away — it gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Jess is responsible, communicative, and clearly loves animals. She sent us regular updates and photos, which we really appreciated. We can’t recommend Jess enough and will definitely be booking her again!
Mark was nothing short of amazing. From communication to effort to just his love for our dog Bubbles. Bubbles is a large dog and can be a handful and Mark was patient, caring and we had complete trust in him and his abilities. We 100% recommend and will use his services again in the future.
I cannot recommend Katherine enough. She has been walking my two dogs for the past three months consistently 3 days a week while I work in office. My dogs can be a handful, with their bad leash habits and bad manners… Katherine has never had any issues or complained. She’s been so patient, responsible, and caring towards them, handling their craziness with love like I would. She’s also incredibly thoughtful. One particular day, I canceled due to being home from work sick and wanted to give her her lunch break back - she offered to still come, knowing I needed the rest. That meant so much and just shows the type of person she is. Katherine is dependable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. Now that I dont need a walker with work schedule changes, I want to make sure others know she’s fantastic!!! Me and my boys are so thankful for the last three months with her 🐶🐶

Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in Laurelhurst.
You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:
- Start and stop times
- A map of their walk with total distance
- Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
- Cute photos and a personalized note
