About: Hi there! I'm Louise, and animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember — I grew up with dogs and cats and have never been without a pet by my side. That lifelong experience means I'm genuinely comfortable and confident with animals of every age and stage, from bouncy puppies and curious kittens to gentle, slower-paced seniors who need a little extra care. I understand that handing your pet over to someone new can feel nerve-wracking, so I treat every dog and cat in my care the way I'd want my own treated — with patience, attention, and plenty of affection. I'm experienced in administering medication, so if your pet has ongoing health needs, allergies, or is recovering from something, you can relax knowing they're in capable hands. Whether your pet needs a calm routine, an active play session, or just someone to sit with them and keep them company, I'll take the time to learn their personality and quirks so they feel safe and comfortable. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages throughout our time together, because I know how much peace of mind that brings. Your pet's comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priority. I'd love to meet you both! I'm a full-time parent, so pet care fits neatly around the school day. I'm available for visits on weekdays during school hours, plus some Saturdays, giving pets a calm, consistent routine. I provide care entirely in your own home, so your pet stays in their familiar environment with their normal routine, bed, and belongings — no stress of travel or a new space. I take time to learn each pet's habits, boundaries, and any specific needs before I start, and I'm comfortable administering medication if required. I always follow the instructions you leave for feeding, walks, or house rules, and I'm attentive to small signs of stress or discomfort so I can respond calmly and appropriately. I keep the home secure while I'm there — locking doors, keeping gates closed, and leaving everything as I found it — and I send photo and text updates throughout the visit so you always know how things are going.

“Nicky is an absolute gem! She has been walking my puppy a few days a week for a month and my puppy absolutely loves her! Nicky sends photos and videos from every single walk and gives me any important feedback. She is very patient and loving with my puppy and has been 100% reliable. I would have no issue with leaving my pup with her for overnight visits as well.”

“Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our little guy during his walk! 😍 He may look like a big boy on the outside, but he’s actually very timid on the inside—and we are so grateful that you approached building a connection with him with such gentle sensitivity. 🙏🏻 Next time, we’ll definitely come straight back to you! 😉”

About: Hello! 🐾 Working with animals has been my passion for as long as I can remember. I have over a decade of experience caring for dogs and cats, including experience in dog grooming, working in a veterinary clinic, and providing professional pet-sitting services. I’m responsible, trustworthy, and truly dedicated to providing the best care possible for every pet I look after. I love going the extra mile for my clients and making sure their fur babies feel happy, safe, and loved while they’re away. Whether that means taking the pups on fun little field trips and adventures or simply staying home, cuddling, and keeping them company, I’m happy to tailor my care to their individual needs. 🐶💕 Your pets are family, and I treat them that way! 🐾🌸🩷 Feel free to send me a message so we can set up a meet-and-greet. I’d absolutely love the opportunity to meet you and your fur baby! ☺️🐶🐾💕 I have a very flexible schedule and am able to work around each client’s individual needs and routine. I’m happy to accommodate different schedules, whether that means daily visits, overnight stays, walks, or simply providing companionship and care while you’re away. My goal is to make sure every pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their family is away. When caring for pets, I like to learn as much as possible about their individual routines and needs so I can provide the best care possible. I like to know their feeding schedule, any medications they may be taking, and whether there are any behavioral or special needs I should be aware of. I also take into consideration their age, whether they are a puppy, kitten, adult, or senior, as some pets may need a little extra attention, patience, or care. For every pet-sitting arrangement, I also appreciate having an emergency contact and the information for their regular veterinarian or a nearby emergency vet, just in case something unexpected happens. My goal is to make each pet feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for just as they would be at home.

About: I have loved pets my whole life. When I was younger I rescued two cats, who I’ve solely taken care of and loved since I got them. Besides that I’ve taken care of and walked various dogs of family friends. I love all animals and would always treat your pet with the respect, love, and care I do my own pets. I am a post grad student who just moved back home trying to figure out what’s next! I currently work a retail job a few times a week with about 5 hour shifts, the longest I’d be away if doing overnight stays. Please always reach out and ask about specific availability as I get my schedules about 2 weeks in advance but can always plan ahead too with time off. Aside from this job I am completely free and available at most times! I am always attentive to any needs my pets or a clients pet would have. I will feed, walk, pet, and play with your pet as to your instructions. Most importantly, I would never do anything to put your pet in a situation of danger and will always treat them with the respect and love they deserve.

About: I have spent more than a decade caring for my family’s beloved dogs and cats and have been around animals for most of my life. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets with a wide range of personalities, ages, energy levels, and support needs, which has taught me to be patient, observant, and responsive to each animal as an individual. I especially value taking the time to earn a pet’s trust and learn the routines and little cues that help them feel safe and comfortable. My professional background in mental health has also strengthened my ability to remain calm, attentive, empathetic, and sensitive to subtle changes in behavior. I bring that same approach to animal care. I have experience caring for senior dogs with varying medical and mobility needs and am comfortable providing additional support to both cats and dogs while closely following their owner’s instructions and established routine. My schedule is currently very flexible, allowing me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pet’s individual needs. Whether your companion enjoys long walks, active play, or a slower pace, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care that matches their routine and personality. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your routines and instructions for walks, feeding, medications, and anything else that helps your pet feel comfortable. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Malibu

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Malibu is $27 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $62 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 15,264 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Malibu. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Malibu. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Malibu after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

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 Malibu. On Rover:

  • 86% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 90% 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 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 Meet & Greet.

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
