“Dorothy is indeed extraordinary. She is professional and really has a way with pets. She communicates every step of the way and goes the extra mile to ensure the pets well being. Believe me I am very selective with my precious doggie. He loves Dorothy and just gets so excited even when I say her name. What a special lady. We love her. She is amazing.”


“Amanda is fantastic! Tito loves her and so do we. We are so lucky to have found her and highly recommend her. She’s an absolute professional, extremely knowledgeable in caring for animals and a wonderful person!”

“Jennifer G was great. she is very professional but also thoughtful and kind to the fur kids. She took pics, and gave a good report. She showed up on time or early and was flexible around the edge times (when we left and were expected back). She is just a great sitter and while she is new to Rover, I expect she will get an established consistent group of clients quickly, because she embodies trust and love you want for your dog/cat.”

“I was looking for someone to drop in and give my dog some company and exercise for a little bit while I work long hours and Carter has been a great help. Carter is prompt, professional, and he provides detailed rover cards so you get to see your pets enjoying themselves while you're away. Definitely recommend.”


“Grace was patient with our dogs and a lifesaver as we were out for an extended period of time each day. Thanks for the services and thanks for providing comfort in knowing the dogs were being cared for in our absence.”

“Hannah was amazing with Coco! She was on time and everything was left in place! Coco loved her as well and she sent plenty of pics and followed all instructions and kept me informed the entire time. I can’t wait to use her again!”

About: Hi there! Growing up I was always an animal person, every year on my birthday when I blew out the candles I would always wish for 100 dogs. Now that’s probably not a smart decision but I feel like that wish has been granted with all of the dogs I’ve watched. I’ve been dogsitting for 6 years now and have loved every second of it. I’ve watched tiny Chihuahuas to large Great Danes, I also have a lot of experience with cats. I’m looking forward to meeting your furry friend! I currently work Monday-Thursday 9-4. I have a lunch break at 12 that I would be able to let them out as well. My weekends are usually free Safety is my number one priority. I am able to crate your dog if you prefer that and set an alarm if you have one.
About: I've taken care of a variety of animals for family and friends. Watched dogs, rabbits, fish, and a guinea pig for my aunt and cousins multiple times. Recently helped my friend while she and her family were out of town by looking after ducks, chickens, a pig, pigeons, horses, and let her dogs out. I also hand fed her cat to make sure he got all of his medicine that was mixed in it. I have a full time job but am lucky to have a flexible schedule and can adjust my hours to be available to take good care of your pet(s). All dogs that I've cared for were let out in a fenced in yard to relieve themselves but I am more that willing to walk any dog that needs more excerise or doesn't have a yard. I can crate your dogs if needed while I'm at work or taking care of my cats and let them back out immediately upon return.
About: How owners want there furry friends to be loved is how they will be expected and treated the best way possible! They will be cared for in the best way possible. I let out or walk dogs in the morning and during my lunch time I walk them again and right after work I walk them again. And right before bed I walk them again. How ever the owner wants me to take care of there furry friend I take care of them how they are expected to be loved
“Monica took great care of our dogs while we were out of town. She was very punctual and the dogs loved her. We have some webcams to keep an eye on the doggies when we are out and they were always excited when Monica arrived.”

About: I’ve taken care of my family’s cats and friends’ pups for years. I always offer plenty of snuggles, diligently take care of basic needs, and love to partake in house hangs or walks around the neighborhood! I’m currently in between finishing graduate school and my career in the medical field. I have much free time to care for and love on your fur babies! I greatly prioritize the safety of all precious animals! I always check for closed fences and safe streets before bringing a pup out to walk or play. I am highly aware of any open doors that could pose a risk to indoor kitties. Safety first!
About: I recently received my Pet Sitter Certification from IAP Career College and have over ten years of experience working professionally with animals. From 2011 until 2013 I entered the pet services industry as a volunteer at the CSRA Humane Society. The Humane Society is the only non-profit no kill shelter in our community. While volunteering, I would visit and play with both the cat and dog residents. My duties at the Human Society consisted of giving tours of the facility, assisting with donations, walking and brushing the cats and dogs, and catching the staff up on washing food and water bowls. From 2013 until 2014, they hired me as a cat caretaker, in which left me in charge of taking care of almost 200 cats at any given time. I left the Humane Society to start pet sitting for friends and family members. I have experience in taking care of a variety of dog and cat breeds. I began doing home visits and drop-ins in 2015 and have since added overnight stays to my list of services. My pet customers love me and I care for them as I care for my own. I have made pet care a full-time job and will book only the number of pets I can see in one day in order to stay on schedule. I am also flexible so that I can meet the needs of my clients. I can be counted on to always be on time which I think is important to keep the pets I serve on their routine. Trust is important and I am very honest and trustworthy. Before working with a pet I like to learn what it is the owner would like for me to do if keeping the pet in his or her own home and the safety precautions I should be aware of. I am also very up front and honest and can be relied on to do the job the way it needs to be done. I also have no problem letting my client know if the ability to work with a pet with special needs or care is outside my scope of knowledge. I ask my clients to keep a list of emergency numbers (such as Veterinarian) when I am on an overnight pet sitting stay. When taking pets for a walk, I always keep a portable water bowl and bottled water with me to keep the pet hydrated while being active. I am not certified in CPR, but my goal is to be certified within the next 3 months.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for 15 years now, when I was a kid the pets were my responsibility, including loving, feeding, walking, washing, etc. Pets have always been a part of my life and always will be! I currently work rotating swing shift my schedule right now for the first full week of the month Friday - Monday 6:30 pm to 6:30 am Off Tuesday - Thursday Friday - Sunday 6:30 am to 6:30 pm Off Monday Tuesday - Thursday 6:30 pm to 6:30 am Off Friday to Sunday Monday - Thursday 6:30 am to 6:30 pm Off Friday to the following Friday During these times I can visit your pet when I get off work and as I’m going in, plus I will use my breaks to visit your pet as they are a hour long so I typically have the time to give your pets the care they need I won’t be taking any pets in my home, but to ensure your babies safety and comfort, I will feed them and water them, after they’ve eaten and are ready to go outside for a potty break I will walk them if needed or take them into your backyard and let them do their business, and will clean up after your pet. Once they’re done I will play with them enough to tire them out so they have a nice long nap before I return to visit them again :)

About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 10 years old and have always considered animals part of the family. I currently have two 8-year-old cats, and until recently I also had two dogs, including a 12-year-old German Shepherd/Malamute mix who sadly passed away from heart failure this year and a Pit Bull who passed away the year before. Caring for pets throughout their different stages of life has taught me how important patience, attention, and love are. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, giving pets attention and companionship, and keeping their normal routines while their families are away. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I’ll treat them with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom, so I have a flexible schedule and am home most of the day. My only regular commitments are school drop-off and pickup. This allows me plenty of time for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I live in a quiet apartment community with a small dog park that I can use for appropriate dogs. I have two friendly 8-year-old cats who are comfortable around people and pets. I also have a toddler who loves animals and a 5-year-old who is more timid around very energetic dogs, so I’m especially mindful of each pet’s temperament and comfort level. I will only accept pets that are a good fit for my home and family, and I always prioritize safety, supervision, and following your pet’s normal routine
About: I absolutely love playing and taking care of animals. I grew up around animals since I was born. Any job required will get done and you will be more than satisfied with my services. I can help potty train, help with tricks, bathe the animal (if you want), & keep them happy during my visit with them or their visit with me in my home. I absolutely don’t like animal abuse so I will not hurt your love one or hit them for their mistake. I simply take care of the issue (ex: using bathroom in the house) by knowing to take them out every so often. I’m very nice and will take care and love on your pet(s) as if they were my own! Overall, please book me early in advance as my schedule can fill up. I also take care of your home as it’s my own and can help with watering plants, making sure trash goes out, getting the mail everyday and I will clean up my area when I stay at your house. I want to make you feel better when you turn home and have to do as little work as possible. I’m currently a college student onto becoming a nurse. I have plenty of time on my hand to accommodate your needs for your sweet pets I currently have a fenced in yard and have two smaller pups. One is more a senior so she’s constantly in bed but the other one has full energy and loves to be friendly with another pups to play with.

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 Martinez. 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.

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.
