“Jinghong was a life saver! We had a last minute request and she worked with us to make it work and even made time for a meet and greet!! She gave multiple updates and made us feel comfortable trusting her with our pup. Cannot recommend enough!!”
“Jonathan was so great! He was communicative and punctual and did a great job walking my high-energy, large Pit mix. We came home to a happy and relaxed pup. Highly recommend!!”
“I have to start saying I’ve never hired a dog walker before, it was hard to trust someone else to take care of my pup. I had to find someone urgently a couple of days ago and Lillian was super accommodating with her needs and our requests. She was able to go to our place right away and kept us posted on every step of the way. She seemed pretty nice and I wanted to meet her as we’ll need more help with our pup in the future. We met a couple of days after and I have to say she was super sweet and loving towards my pup. I was happy she remembered all the things I told her about our dog. She even walked to the park and stayed with us for a while. She made it easier for me to trust in this apps. I highly recommend her.”
“Xavier was great! He was on time and patient. I have two dogs with special needs and Xavier took care of them with no issue. He sent plenty of pictures and they clearly were very well taken care of. He was communicative and very helpful!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years through family and friends, and I’m always the person they trust to watch their pets. I genuinely love animals, and dogs tend to feel comfortable with me very quickly. I have experience with small and medium-sized dogs, and I’m comfortable adapting to different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I’m especially patient with more anxious or sensitive dogs. I have an anxious dog of my own, which has taught me how to read body language, build trust, and create a calm, safe environment. I’m very attentive and detail-oriented, so I always follow care instructions closely, whether it’s feeding schedules, medications, or specific routines. I can also help reinforce basic training like leash manners and structure during walks. My goal is to make every dog feel cared for, understood, and happy while giving owners complete peace of mind. I treat every dog like my own and always keep communication open and consistent. I’m available Thursday through Sunday, with the most flexibility on weekends. On Thursdays and Fridays, I work part-time and am home by early afternoon, so I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and evening care. I prioritize safety, trust, and clear communication above everything. I follow each pet’s routine closely and take the time to understand their individual needs, behaviors, and comfort levels. I have a fenced yard for safe outdoor time, as well as a very friendly Shihpoo who is used to being around other dogs. I always supervise interactions and make sure every dog feels comfortable and secure. I also have a pet camera at home for added monitoring, and a baby gate if a dog feels more comfortable in a smaller, more confined space. I’m especially mindful with more anxious dogs, as I have one of my own, so I understand the importance of patience and creating a calm, safe environment.
About: I have experience caring for and training my own dogs. I had one dog growing up and currently have another that I’ve trained and cared for daily. I truly enjoy being around dogs, spending time with them, and making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I always prioritize their health, happiness, and well-being, and I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and attention when caring for pets. As a college student currently on summer break, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I absolutely love dogs and enjoy spending time with them, whether it’s going for walks, playing, or simply providing companionship. I am a very caring, responsible, and attentive person, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to make sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. In my home, pets are treated like family. I have a securely fenced yard with plenty of space for dogs to run, play, and get exercise in a safe environment. My home is very dog friendly, clean, and welcoming, and I make sure pets receive lots of attention, affection, and supervision throughout the day. I also have an extra crate available if needed, as well as plenty of toys to keep pets entertained and comfortable. I follow each pet’s regular feeding, potty, exercise, and medication schedule to help them feel at home and maintain their routine. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my priority is always their safety, happiness, and well being.
“I can’t say how comfortable we were with Diana coming to our house to watch our 3rd child ?. She is trustworthy and sweet. Diana not only took our dog on long walks but gave her the TLC that she needed when her family went away! I will be forever grateful for Diana and I will definitely ask for her services again!”
About: I’d be a great dog walker because I genuinely love animals and bring a warm, upbeat energy to every interaction. My bubbly personality helps dogs feel comfortable and excited, whether it’s an energetic walk or a calm stroll. I’m attentive, patient, and tuned in to each dog’s unique needs, making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for at all times. For me, it’s not just about walking dogs—it’s about building trust, creating joy, and treating every pet like they’re my own I am available Monday through Friday (weekends are available if needed). Mornings and afternoons are best :) Times/Dates can be accommodated upon request if need be. I prioritize every dog’s safety by staying attentive, prepared, and respectful of their surroundings. I use secure, well-fitted leashes and harnesses, keep a close eye on body language, and adjust our pace and route to match each dog’s comfort and energy level. I’m mindful of the environment—avoiding busy roads, extreme weather, and unsafe surfaces—while staying alert to other animals and potential hazards.
About: 🐾 What Sets Me Apart I offer something most sitters can’t—true flexibility and consistent availability. I’m available evenings and weekends now, and once summer hits, I’m fully available every day, giving your pup reliable care without gaps or last-minute changes. I love building real connections with dogs, not just quick visits. Whether it’s a high-energy walk, playtime, or just keeping your dog company, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for like they’re my own. I’m dependable, patient, and detail-oriented—so you can trust that your dog’s routine, safety, and happiness always come first. I’m also happy to meet ahead of time so you and your pup feel completely comfortable. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I’m available for walks and visits during evenings and weekends right now, and I make sure to plan my schedule so each dog gets my full attention and care. During the summer, my routine becomes completely open, which allows me to provide consistent, flexible care throughout the day—whether that’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or longer visits. I enjoy staying active, so dog walking and spending time with pets is something I genuinely look forward to and prioritize in my day. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets feel right at home. In my apartment complex, we have access to a dog park, which is perfect for exercise, playtime, and socialization (if your dog enjoys being around others). I also have a very friendly and playful dog who loves the company of other dogs, which can be great for pets who enjoy having a buddy to play with. Inside my home, I keep a calm and structured space where pets can relax, stick to their routine, and feel secure. I make sure they get plenty of attention, play, and affection—while also respecting their individual needs and energy levels. Whether your dog loves being active or prefers to lounge, I adjust to what makes them happiest. I prioritize safety at all times, keep a close eye on all pets, follow feeding schedules, and carefully stick to any specific instructions you provide. Cleanliness, consistency, and communication are very important to me, so you’ll always feel confident your pet is in good hands.

I can't say enough about Elizabeth! She was wonderful! I was so worried about finding a dog walker, and she eased my fear. She's definitely confident when it comes to larger breed dogs, the size and look of my dog did not faze her! The initial meet and greet went well! And I think it helped with the relationship between her and my dog.. I'm so relieved that we have someone that we can count on! And someone that my dog likes, and it comfortable to go on walks with! Thanks Elizabeth!! See you next time! 😉
Bryndon is great! Our dog usually barks at everyone that comes in the house. She did not bark at all with Bryndon. She met him at the door and after a few sniffs, sat down so he could pet her! Bryndon was very engaged in learning about Miracle's personality and quirks. He was engaged with her and at the same time maintained full control of her (she can pull at times). Bryndon was also very attentive to everything we shared with him about Miracle and we are very confident that Miracle will be in great hands on her walks with Bryndon.
Daisy trusted Michelle the moment she met her and is so happy when she drops in for her visits. She is very attentive to her needs, responds quickly to my messages and is flexible with me. She has a very calming demeanor to her which is exactly what my anxious Daisy needs. Highly recommend!
We’ve had such a great experience with our dog walker, Xavier! He’s been walking our two dogs, Koda and Miso, and I honestly couldn’t ask for better care. Both dogs have their own personalities, and he handles each of them so well—making sure they get the right amount of exercise, attention, and love. I always feel at ease knowing Koda and Miso are in good hands. Xavier is reliable, communicative, and clearly cares about the dogs he works with. You can tell he genuinely enjoys what he does, and it shows in how happy and relaxed my pups are after every walk. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring!
Jing was wonderful with Bailey. He was a little nervous today because it’s only a few days in our new apt, so he don’t finish his breakfast. Jing sat with him and hand fed him a couple morsels, helping him to feel comfortable and then he finished the rest on his own. I highly recommend Jing and will definitely use her again!
Yong was amazing!!! I’m always nervous about finding a new dog sitter/walker but Yong immediately put us at ease and my dog loved him. He was super dependable, gave lots of updates, always punctual and clearly loves animals and wants to take care of them. Will definitely reach out to again!

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Lodi. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Lodi.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lodi. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
