About: I adore dogs! I have cared for many pets and homes throughout my life, from small dogs and puppies to Brittanys and Labs. I am very experienced in walking dogs, playing with them, and providing their basic food and water needs. I genuinely love dogs, and can't get enough of them. I have also cared for birds, fish, and other small pets such as hamsters and Guinea pigs. I am an expert caretaker of homes, both apartments and houses. I have served as a long-term housesitter for friends and families, and while I am not a homeowner, I have rented numerous houses and cared for them meticulously. I also absolutely love gardening and am quite experienced, so I am more than happy to provide gardening and landscaping maintenance. I am a professor, so I have a lot of flexibility in the summer months until mid to late August. During the summer months, I teach a bit and do some activities, but I am able to be home as much as needed to care for pets. I am careful and conscientious with pets. I make sure they have enough to eat, drink, and enough exercise. I am good at taking dogs on walks, and I follow owners' instructions to the letter.
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover with two cats of my own, and I absolutely adore caring for pets of all kinds. Whether you have energetic dogs that need daily walks and playtime, independent kitties who want some extra snuggles, or any other furry (or scaly!) friends, I’m experienced and confident giving them the attentive, affectionate care they deserve. While you’re away, I’ll keep your pets happy and comfortable in their familiar environment, stick to their normal routines, provide plenty of love and exercise, and make sure your home stays safe and tidy. You can relax knowing your beloved companions are in trustworthy, caring hands! I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m highly available for drop-ins, overnight stays, and house sitting whenever you need me. Your pets will always receive prompt and attentive care! I prioritize your pets’ safety and well-being above all else. In your home, I follow your exact instructions and routines to the letter — from feeding schedules and medication to favorite toys and walk routes. I’m a responsible, non-smoker with a clean background, and I treat your space with the same care as my own.
“Thomas has been a life saver for us with our dog Guinness. He is always on time, he is reliable, he is patient with our somewhat moody, large dog, and he has become our regular walker 3x per week. Thomas is super responsive to messages and seems to genuinely enjoy spending time with Guinness. I highly recommend Thomas !”
About: I have loved animals all my life. I have a special place in my heart for all animals. I have owned and taken care of animals for 40 years. I have a way about myself that puts animals on ease and makes them feel welcome. I can not wait to take the best care of your loved and cherished pet. Thank you for your consideration. I am currently on a sabbatical so I have plenty of time to pet sit. I am available weekends, evenings, and mornings. I am available for long-term arrangements. I have a small fenced yard and I love to go on long walks. I give pets lots off affection and attention if they want it. I also just let them relax if that is what they need. Either way I am a very attentive caretaker.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, so caring for them has always been second nature to me. Over the past five years, I’ve pet sat for a variety of families and have experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I understand that every dog has their own routine, and I make it a priority to keep them comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away!! In addition to pet sitting, me and my family foster with Milo, where I’ve helped care for dogs as they transition into their forever homes. That experience has taught me patience, adaptability, and how to help dogs feel safe in new environments. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family and always aim to provide reliable, loving care, along with plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely at ease while you’re away!! I’m currently very flexible, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pets! Whether it’s morning, afternoon, or evening visits, I’ll make sure your pet gets lots of attention, exercise, playtime, and love. I’m also available on weekends and happy to work around your pet’s usual routine. I’ll always care for your pet as if they were my own! I’ll follow all of your instructions carefully, keep their routine as consistent as possible, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you know your pet is in good hands.
About: I have always love animals and have been volunteering at WildCare for two years. I love dogs and cats and I have owned multiple cats throughout my life. I currently have two black kitties, Calypso and Sylvia, who follow me around whenever I’m home. I have cat-sit many cats mostly through friends and always love meeting new characters. I love dogs as well and have had experience dog walking and sitting for friends. I am a college student home for the summer, so I have lots of time to care for your pet! I am free most weekends and weekdays apart from Tuesday and Wednesday mornings. I can do mornings or afternoons As a dog-walker I can take your dog around the neighborhood or in my car depending on the comfort level of the client! As a cat-sitter I am comfortable spending multiple hours with your house playing, petting, and just being near your cats.
About: I have owned a dog since I was 8 years so for 13 years I have lived with a dog. I successfully navigated college with a dog and became a dog walker two years ago for a full time job. I am best at building relationships with the dogs and gaining their respect. I have trained difficult breeds as puppies and I also have much experience with senior care, including bowel problems, joint and bone problems, and distributing medicine. Out of the 15 jobs I have worked since I was old enough to work, this is my favorite one! I find time every day to implement pet care because it has become a part of my own routine as I enjoy it very much! I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the space and the pet’s habits, whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate routines, or just giving them extra attention and playtime. I know every animal is different, so I try to pay attention to their personality and energy level instead of forcing them into a routine that doesn’t fit them. I also prioritize safety during walks and visits by keeping pets supervised, avoiding unsafe environments, double-checking gates/leashes, and making sure they have fresh water, exercise, and a calm environment (and of course cuddles and attention.) I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so I want them to feel relaxed and cared for while their owners are away.
About: I have always grown up with pets in the house! I’ve also sat a variety of animals, breeds and temperaments. Always been a big animal lover! I currently have a very flexible and open schedule. I love being active and outdoors and always love to have a pet companion for that! I’d like to make the client as comfortable as possible, adhering to what they want for their pet and their environment. Obviously welcome animals into my home with lots of love and care.
About: Over the past 7 years, I have had the incredible opportunity to walk and sit for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and breeds. From energetic pups to laid-back seniors who prefer a leisurely stroll. I am reliable, responsible, and trustworthy, and I take great pride in the trust that pet owners place in me. I would be thrilled to have the opportunity to care for your beloved pet and treat them as my own. I also have a dog-walking business license. My husband & I are both self-employed, so our schedules are flexible, we have plenty of time to take care of your pet and always have someone at home. I don’t have a yard, but I do have a balcony and deck. I have a child who loves playing fetch and running with the dogs. Additionally, I walk my clients’ dogs 3 times a week, so I can take your pet on a long walk with others. If needed, I can also run your dog or play fetch in the park or on the beach. I can also crate your dog if necessary.
“Samuel was incredibly easy to communicate with and was able to help with a very last minute request to watch our dog Steve! He took very good care of him, sent lots of photos and went over and above to make sure that he got the exercise and attention that he needed! Thank you Samuel!”
About: I am a person that has grown around dogs and I really care for each and every dog I have owned. I personally enjoy going out to walks and runs with dogs and having a great bond with them. I believe every dog shows a special connection to us and they are very caring so we should as well show our care for them providing our help when they need it. I have interacted with all types of dogs and even though you can have a favorite breed,every dog is important and beautiful in their way. I am definitely a dog person and would like to get to know more dogs of any type of breed and create a good bond with them regardless of their age.
About: I've fostered dogs in my home and cared for dogs and cats in other people's homes and am excited to do more of both! I got into housesitting several months ago and love getting to spend focused time and attention on animals while their people are away. While fostering dogs, I worked on light training - improving walking manners, comfort with strangers, and basic commands. I cared for my dogs for a few weeks to several months until they were adopted and loved getting updates from their new families about their progress. I make time for your animals as they need it! I work part time, which allows plenty of time for walks, playing fetch, cuddle sessions, and on-time meals. If temperament allows, I’ll take your pup with me to dog-friendly spots in town and along longer walking paths and trails. I'm new to California and settling in the area. I'm excited to explore different neighborhoods, meet cool people, and spend time with your furry friends. If I’m staying in your home, I’m in your best friend’s space. Whatever they’re used to, is what they’ll get, whether that’s permission (or not) to get on furniture, sleep with me in bed, and set our walking schedule.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - McNears Beach
Sarah was excellent to work with -- communicative, friendly, and great with our girls. They are each 40lbs of energy and not the easiest to control sometimes -- but she worked with them to earn their trust and be their walk leader. Additionally, even though most of the walks were scheduled during a heat wave, zero complaints from Sarah, and she smartly knew to make the sure dogs didn't get overheated by limiting the distance and making sure they had water. Highly recommend her for anyone who is looking for a conscientious person to take care of their pets!
Tyler G. did an excellent job walking my dog! He was very polite, prompt, dependable and kind. My dog enjoyed the walks Tyler took him on, and I could tell my shy dog really liked going with Tyler. Tyler spoke so nicely to my dog. followed the routine I asked him to, and he gave my dog pets and his dog treats. I highly recommend Tyler G. for caring for your pet’s needs. -Polly

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.

- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs

- 96% can help with daily exercise

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.
