About: I have worked at a Veterinary Clinic in boarding and daycare for 4 years and have been dog sitting for about 2 years. I recently became a Veterinary Assistant about 5 months ago, and I am currently attending clesses to become a Veterinary Technician. I know how to care for animals including tasks like feedings, walks, medications, and more. I hope to become a Veterinarian myself one day! I love being around animals especially dogs, and I would love to help care for your pet! I currently am working part time at the Lodi Vet Clinic so I would very easily be able to check in on your pets around my schedule I will take great care of your pets in the comfort of your own home, and I am very open to specific requests such as extra long walks etc.
About: Growing up, I cared for and showed horses for 10 years. We also had two dogs of our own. As an adult, I have cared for two dogs, one of which I trained from puppy on. I am obsessed with dogs. Their personalities, their commitment, their unwavering compassion. And I would be honored to love on yours! I am at work only a few days a week, leaving many days that I’m available! My “real” work schedule is sporadic, so be sure to check my availability calendar for updates. My goal is to keep your pet safe, and as comfortable as possible. I am comfortable using many tools, such as flat collar, slip leash, prong collar, harness, or E collar.
“Tricia has been wonderful with Cinco! We were a little nervous about hiring a dog walker for the first time, but Tricia immediately made us feel comfortable. She took the time to get to know Cinco, listened carefully to all of our instructions, and has been incredibly patient about letting Cinco set the pace and build trust with her. Cinco can be reactive to other dogs and can also be nervous around loud noises, so finding someone we trusted to walk her was very important to us. Tricia pays attention to her cues and adjusts the walk when Cinco is uncomfortable rather than pushing her. After only two visits, Cinco was already excited to see her! Tricia is also a great communicator and clearly cares about making sure both Cinco and we are comfortable. We feel very lucky to have found her and are looking forward to having her continue walking Cinco. Highly recommend!”
About: Dogs are my favorite people - I attract dogs wherever I go. I have owned two dogs in my adult life-English Bulldog and Goldendoodle. Currently, I have a 10 year old goldendoodle. She loves everyone. I am a teacher and have off during the summer. I enjoy hiking, camping, biking, running, reading, gardening, and cooking. I’m currently on summer break, so my days are very flexible. During the school year, I am available before 7am or after 4pm. I have a very friendly goldendoodle. I have a big yard. I am willing to provide lots of love, playtime, and walks for your dog. I can be active with your pet or sit with them and love them up. Whatever you need, I can provide.
About: I have been taking care of animals ever since I was little, between dogs, cats, reptiles, and even farm animals such as dairy cows, pigs, goats, chickens, rabbits, and guinea pigs. I have open availability so I can take pets anytime and any day. I can do both cats and dogs as I have experience in both and experience in different energy levels I have a fence for my pets, we play with toys, and we go on walks (depending on the weather). My dog will sleep where she is most comfortable and she always goes to the bathroom on time.
“Elizabeth was great with our dog Cash giving us updates with pictures and giving him nice long walks. Will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her.”
About: I have had experience watching dogs since I was 12. My neighbors often have me walk their dogs when they are unable, and about a year ago I started watching my family and friend’s dogs when they are out of town. I currently work part-time and I don’t have school during the summer so I am free most week days. I am also available on various weekends depending on my other job’s schedule. I create a safe environment in client’s homes by ensuring the dog has nothing dangerous within reach. Keeping a clean and safe space helps the both the dog and owner feel more at ease.
About: I enjoy caring for energetic dogs and love keeping them active through games like fetch and tug-of-war. I am a dependable and attentive pet sitter who is comfortable administering medications and providing any additional care your pet may need. I strive to build trust with every pet I care for, and I’m proud that many of my clients have chosen me as their recurring pet sitter. My goal is to ensure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I am currently available through the beginning of August and am happy to discuss scheduling to find a time that works for you. Please feel free to message me with any questions about my availability. I typically provide care in your home to help keep your pets comfortable in their familiar environment. I can also welcome your furry family members into my home for stays of up to two days, if needed. While I do not have a fenced yard, I make sure every dog gets plenty of exercise through long walks and trips to local parks. If your dog enjoys socializing with other dogs and you approve, I’d be happy to take them to a dog park for additional play and enrichment. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I carefully follow your care instructions and make sure every dog in my care receives plenty of love, attention, exercise, and responsible supervision. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

Tell me more about your pet to help me help them be as comfortable as they can be!
“Jimmy is amazing with Alton. He has a clear love for dogs and passion for doing what is needed to care for them. I’m always impressed at seeing the maps of the nice walks they take. Which I’m sure Alton very much appreciates when he’s pouty that I’m away. Jimmy is also very easy to communicate with and always responsive. 10/10 recommend.”

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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
walkers on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
