“Megan was very, kind, considerate and attentive with walking our dog Prescott! She’s was very thorough with his needs- as he recently injured his paw after swimming & hiking for a few days. She took it slow with him. Megan is also very organized in that she clarified walking times with me so I had the correct dates in for his walk. Appreciate you helping us out, would book with her again. Thanks a bunch Megan!”
“Camila has been great walking my Mom's dog. My Mom is 95 and does not always feel up to walking Luke, so Camila has been a great help. Very reliable, always prompt and gives Luke a bit of exercise twice a week. Very glad we found her!!”
About: I provide a calm environment in-home and exciting fun-filled adventures outside. Marin is my backyard and I love taking pups on hikes and to the beach. I have a 6-year old dog full time and she is great with all dogs. I've taken care of all kinds of dogs, from those that love to play to older dogs that need more one on one time. I'm comfortable with on and off-leash walks and am very attentive to dogs with unique triggers that need to be managed. I will provide a loving, caring environment with your dog where they can feel right at home and be their best self. I'm currently working part-time so I'm available throughout the day and evenings. I'm available weekdays and weekends. I live near a massive trail system, dog parks and the beach, so can customize your dog's stay based on what they love most. I have a 6-year old friendly dog, Chilli, in home to keep your pup company. I take Chilli on 2 big adventure walks each day and adjust that schedule for other dogs as needed, including additional potty breaks and play time. Dogs can be crated or not, depending on how they're most comfortable. Chilli roams freely in the house throughout the day and I often keep our patio door open for her to lounge in the sun.
“Marielle was great with our dog, Buddy, and such a help to both meet with me and take Buddy out on short notice. Great communication, highly recommend, and hope to have her care for Buddy again!”
“Connor was amazing! Needed someone to walk our dog after a recent surgery, and he was everything you want in a dog walker: polite, punctual, and positive interactions with your pet. Our dog would get excited every morning when Connor would arrive and clearly appreciated his morning exercise with Connor. Would 100% recommend.”
About: I have had dogs my entire life and spent the last year working as a veterinary technician, and worked alongside ranch dogs for two years before that. I am comfortable with dogs (plus cats and ranch animals!) of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My veterinary background also makes me comfortable with medications and specialty care. I really enjoy being able to get to know each pet’s unique personality! My schedule is currently pretty flexible, which gives me plenty of time for walks and drop-ins throughout the week. I can accommodate different days and times whenever possible! I am happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific care instructions. My veterinary background has given me experience with pet first aid, medications, and special needs, as well as recognizing changes in behavior or health. I am always excited to meet and spend time with new pets!
“Cat is a top notch dog walker! She is very caring and attentive. She listened to our concerns and she is very knowledgeable about dog behaviors. I feel that she is a great communicator, and felt at ease having her take care of our dog. It is clear that Cat is a huge dog lover, and I am certain we will continue to book with her!”

You can definitely trust that I'll do everything to give your dog the best!! I LOVE DOGS & CATS!! Not to mention horses, ponies and rabbits! I love to house sit and spend my time with any wonderful canine or animal! They'll be given the absolute best of care and companionship when I'm there 24/7 the rest of the week! I'm a retired teacher of 20 years, in great physical condition, and want to do this full time. I LOVE DOGS AND CATS!! I've always worked in the helping professions as a teacher and behavioral case manager for the homeless. Now I want to do what means the most to me....spend my time with animals and give them the best experience possible!! Number 1, follow the directions of the client relative to their animals. Number 2, be respectful of their environment. Number 3, do all the extras possible for the animals including companionship. Number 4, leave the house as nice as it was on my arrival date.

About: Hello there! Important: For dog sitting, I only accept dogs who are friendly with other dogs and able to join me for a morning 2 hour hike. Your pup should be comfortable spending time with the pack and enjoy an active start to the day! A minimum stay of 5 nights is required. Dog hikes: I offer small-group hiking adventures for dogs: "Andy for Dogs Marin". Dogs are picked up from home, hike and explore together as a pack, then are dropped back off afterward. It’s a social group activity designed to provide exercise, enrichment, play, and outdoor adventure beyond a regular neighborhood walk. Each adventure includes at least two hours on the trails, usually covering 4–6 miles. Pickup, transportation, and drop-off are on top of the hike, so your dog is typically out for about 3–4 hours total. During our adventures, I reinforce basics such as recall, sit, stay, down, check-ins, and good pack manners. It’s not just exercise—the goal is to give dogs both physical and mental enrichment.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Marin City
Gage cared for our two small dogs while we were on vacation and did an excellent job. From the start, he communicated clearly, arrived on time for every walk, and he was very reliable. We’ll gladly book with him again whenever we need someone to look after our pups!
Carter’s been great with my dog, Nellie. She’s a senior with changing needs, and he always adapts to her energy level and what she needs that day. He’s consistently on time, keeps me updated after every walk, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful dog walker.
Caroline was great to work with when coordinating a walk for my dog, gave very special attention to my dog (and got some great photos from their walk), and by the time Caroline brought my dog back from her walk, my typically shy dog was already ready to go out on a walk again with Caroline!

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 Marin City. 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 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.
