“Alissa is truly the best. We have an 8-year-old goldendoodle, Baloo, who is a bit timid with other people, but she quickly warmed up to Alissa. Spending long hours at work, I would often stress about how long Baloo was at home alone. Now, with Alissa’s help, I have zero stress and know Baloo is being well taken care of. More so, I look forward to the daily lunch time pictures and updates. I am so glad I chose Alissa and hope you do too.”
“Caroline is an outstanding dog walker! She instantly built rapport with our dog Goldie and listened to my instructions (to not have her walk too close to other dogs).I felt Goldie was well taken care of during her walks. She also took and sent several photos. A+”
About: I've loved animals my whole life and have cared for pets since 2016. I had my own bunny for five years, which taught me responsibility, patience, and how much consistency matters in pet care. Over the years, I've helped roommates, friends, and family with their pets, including feeding, walks (rain included!), baths when needed, cleaning up accidents, playtime, and companionship. While I don't yet provide emergency or medical care beyond the basics, I'm very comfortable with daily routines and making pets feel safe and loved. What sets me apart is that I'm very good at following instructions. I know every pet parent has specific preferences, and I respect that fully. During the first visit, I may ask clarifying questions to make sure I'm doing everything exactly how you like it. I also keep your home tidy and send regular updates with photos so you feel at ease. I'm available weekdays during standard working hours and would love to spend that time giving your pup or kitty attention, movement, and care. I'm currently available on weekdays during standard 9-5 hours, which makes me a great fit for midday walks, drop-in visits, and weekday care. I'm not available on weekends at this time. Since I'm focusing on weekday bookings, I'm able to give your pet my full attention during visits rather than rushing between commitments. Your pet's comfort and your home's safety are very important to me. I carefully follow all instructions, double-check doors and leashes, and make sure your pet is secure before and after walks. I maintain a calm presence and respect both your home and your pet's boundaries. I clean up after pets, keep litter areas and feeding spaces tidy, and leave your home as I found it. Clear communication is important to me, so you can expect updates, photos, and honest check-ins throughout my time with your pet.
About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats of various sizes and temperaments, including large breeds like German Shepherds. I’m comfortable with daily routines such as feeding, walks, playtime, basic medication, and keeping pet areas clean. I am available in the mornings and evenings, sometimes could do afternoon playtime. I follow each pet’s individual routine and preferences and adjust timing as needed. I provide calm, reliable care in a safe, familiar environment for your pet, carefully following routines and instructions while keeping owners informed with regular updates.
“Chelsey was super responsive and accommodating on a last minute notice. I felt very comfortable and confident with Chelsey handling my 75 pound yellow lab having only met him 5 minutes prior to his walk. She’s a pro no doubt! Thank you Chelsey! Will definitely utilize her services again in the future”
“Miriam is the best dog walker! She is reliable, trustworthy, great communicator and most importantly, takes great care of our energetic Labrador, Cali, who she walks 3x a week. We don’t know what we’d do without her!”
“Molly is super nice and respectful, and has plenty of experience with dogs and other animals. She was very sweet and understanding of my pup and took their first meeting very well. They bonded and were friends pretty quick! I'm excited to have her as a new friend for my boy Bean, and I know they'll have a great friendship! Thanks for being flexible and so helpful with Bean!”
About: Cats have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I'm the proud cat mom of Louie, who has been my companion for the past 15 years. During my time as a travel nurse, Louie and I spent eight years traveling the country together, which taught me a great deal about animal behavior, routines, and helping pets feel secure and comfortable. I'm a pediatric nurse by profession, so caring for others comes naturally to me. Friends describe me as dependable, patient, and nurturing—qualities that I bring to pet care as well. Although most of my experience comes from being a lifelong pet owner, I have also cared for friends' cats while they were away and understand how important it is to know your pets are in good hands. I especially love cats and understand their unique personalities, but I also grew up with a dog and enjoy spending time with dogs too. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy and make time for in my weekly routine. My current work schedule is flexible, which gives me the opportunity to provide reliable care, attention, and companionship to pets throughout the week. I understand how important consistency is, especially for cats, and I strive to keep pets comfortable and happy while their owners are away. I believe pets are happiest when their normal routine is maintained, so I take the time to learn each pet's specific needs, preferences, and schedule. In a client's home, I provide feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, walks (if applicable), playtime, affection, and companionship while ensuring your pet feels safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I am also comfortable administering medications to both cats and dogs according to owner and veterinary instructions. As a pediatric nurse, I am attentive to details, patient, and experienced with following care plans carefully. I understand the importance of consistency and monitoring for changes in behavior, appetite, or overall well-being. Having owned cats my entire life and cared for my cat Louie for the past 15 years, I understand that every pet has a unique personality. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, senior and in need of extra attention, or shy and prefers a quieter approach, I will adapt my care to meet their individual needs. I will also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. My goal is to care for every pet as if they were my own—with patience, compassion, and plenty of love.
“We've been having Stacey walk our greyhound for the last 6 months and she is the best! She is very accommodating and always sends photos from during and after the walk. Our dog is always happy to see her and comes back tired and ready for a nap. We would happily recommend her to anyone!”
About: I have grown up taking care of my family yellow lab Hobie since I was 10 years old, as well as dog walked/dog sat for friends and other families in my neighborhood. The age of the dog and any special care needed is not something I shy away from. Other Experience: - Dog walker with my sister when we were younger - house sitting with dogs I am currently home from college for the summer until September due to being on quarter system. I have open availability right now and am very flexible with scheduling needs. I live in a cul-de-sac back home, with a fenced backyard with grass, as well as a front yard where my dog can easily play, pee, or sunbathe during the Spring and Summer. I live next to downtown as well as multiple creek trails. Whether it’s going on walks with dogs or staying inside keeping cats company and time to socialize and play, are all environments I enjoy being in.
“Ho So did a fantastic job looking after our dog Ddoddo for a week. We are particularly appreciative of his flexibility, working around our unpredictable work schedules. He was always very communicative and consistently posted updates and pictures of his time with Ddoddo. We highly recommend Ho So to anybody and would definitely ask him for help again in the future.”
“Courtney is very professional, thoughtful and gentle, with my energetic Golden Retriever. She helped us in an over heat week. She planned routes with shade, and kept a very close eye to the dog during the walks. We will definitely book again!”
About: Your pet’s comfort and safety are my priority. I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely love animals. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or companionship, your pet will be in caring hands. I have a flexible schedule and can provide reliable pet care throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I make time to ensure pets receive attention, walks, feeding, playtime, and loving companionship. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, maintain a clean and safe environment, provide regular updates, and make sure pets feel calm, secure, loved, and well cared for at all times.
“Lisa is hands down the most consistent and reliable person to take care of my dog Riley! I couldn’t dream up a better person to regularly come into my home and walk my pup when I’m at work! You will be lucky and honored to have her!”
“I was looking for someone to walk Zoey on a day that I did not have time. Blair was thoughtful, responsive, punctual, and conscientious, and our pug, Zoey, enjoyed walking with her.”
“Lee Ann is our regular dog walker and go-to anytime we need someone to care for our golden retriever, Lyla. Our dog loves her and she takes her on her favorite walk to the park. Lee Ann has always been flawlessly prompt and professional in her communications with us. It's been easy to book her through Rover last-minute if needed. She always sends a Rover card with a picture so that we know exactly where Lyla has been walking with her and for how long. Those of you with busy schedules know how important it is to have a reliable dog walker you can trust, and Lee Ann is that person for us.”

So appreciate having Stacey nearby to walk our dog—she’s friendly and nice to work with, reliable, and a great communicator. She confirmed arrival time each day as requested, and even adjusting walk times due to a heat wave (which we were grateful for). Lucy looked forward to her outings, and we felt comfortable knowing our pup was in good hands. Thank you again Stacey!
We have booked with Michael several times now. He is so reliable and easy to work with. I have one senior dog and two younger ones. All of them were given enough care and attention. Even one of them enjoyed “hide & seek” right before a walk, Michael didn’t message us immediately (would’ve panicked us because we’d thought he is missing 😂) but followed this little one’s ritual and patiently and playfully guided him downstairs to start the walk. It’s all these small actions from Michael made us dog parents can really be enjoying our trips while left our babies in such a good hand. Thank you!!
Ho So did a fantastic job looking after our dog Ddoddo for a week. We are particularly appreciative of his flexibility, working around our unpredictable work schedules. He was always very communicative and consistently posted updates and pictures of his time with Ddoddo. We highly recommend Ho So to anybody and would definitely ask him for help again in the future.
Thu was fantastic with my dog. She was prompt, reliable, friendly and enthusiastic. She even took my dog on extra walks in order to provide him with play dates with other, safe and friendly, dogs. When I returned from my vacation, my dog looked happier and healthier than when I left. Can't say anything better than that. I highly recommend Thu
We have two dogs who can be a bit reactive when walked by leash. My wife and I were instructed by professional dog trainers on how to keep them calm and under control when they see another dog. John picked up the training methods quickly and had both of our guys exhibiting their best behavior. John is a natural, and our dogs adore him. We are extremely pleased with his calmness and attention. Five stars!
Caroline is an outstanding dog walker! She instantly built rapport with our dog Goldie and listened to my instructions (to not have her walk too close to other dogs).I felt Goldie was well taken care of during her walks. She also took and sent several photos. A+

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 Mountain View. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Mountain View.

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 Mountain View. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 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.
