“Alexander has walked my dog for two walks so far, and he has been AWESOME. Super reliable, easy to work with, communicative, and very clearly cares for dogs. Highly recommend him, and I’m looking forward to working with him regularly! It’s my first experience using Rover, and I’m really grateful we found Alexander!”
“Miriam has been wonderful- prompt, reliable, professional and our dog is happy! I love that she sends us photos after every walk. So glad we found her as it has taken a lot of stress off our minds knowing we have someone to walk her that we can trust!”
“Chelsey has been great with our older golden retriever Milky. Chelsey’s started doing multiple dog walking sessions per week. Chelsey has been very punctual although we are flexible on walk start times. She’s very kind and responsible with our dog. Milky is starting to know the schedule and wait near the front door in anticipation. So that’s a good sign. Definitely will keep using Chelsey.”
About: My first pet friend is a mixed breed puppy my grandma found on street. He used to be my best childhood friend. When I went to college, I started my volunteer work at animal care shelter. I worked four years caring all kinds of dogs and cats there. Not only I acquired professional pet caring knowledge, I also stay calm and being patient to our fluffy friends. I found my first kitty (2 months old) on street at 2020, now she’s happily and healthily living with my parents. I moved to CA for graduate school, now I adopted my second kitty! I always help take care of neighbors & friends’ pet (since high school!), you can find some cute pics here!!! I always get along well with fluffy friends! For energetic kiddos, I’d love to play with them! I wont rush or scare them if they’re shy! You can always trust me to be your pets’ friend! Monday, Wednesday, Friday and weekends: let me know your preference! My schedule is quite flexible! Tuesday, Thursday: Generally I’d be free after 5pm But feel free to reach out for your preferred time! I totally understand your first concern would be: will my pet be safe with you? Of course they will! I’m super cautious when it comes to your kiddos’ safety! If they’re a bit nervous, I’d never rush them! Take their time to take me as a new friend! Let me know your pets’ personality and we will get along super good! By the way, for their safety, I’d only take leash trained dog for outdoor walk! I’m sure you’d understand!
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.
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.
“Hanna has been incredible for us! She is so good with our dog, and was even able to get him to take his pills much easier than he does with us! She sends detailed report cards with lots of great pictures, and even included how our dogs poops we’re looking when he was having GI problems. We have absolutely loved Hanna and will be enlisting her help again!”
“Anna is amazing with Chikoo! Anna is natural with dogs since she has had dogs since she was a child. She is caring yet firm with him. We absolutely loved her. Chikoo absolutely loves her. I feel that I can trust her 100% with him.”
“Fernanda was a great walker for our dog! She was on top of communication each day and sent of photos and videos of our pup enjoying his time with her. She was very flexible with her schedule and allowed for a last minute change for our walks to go from 30 minutes to 60 minutes. She even went an extra step and made sure that our pup has water after each walk. Fernanda is professional, knowledgeable about dogs, and easy going. I would highly recommend her for your dog walking needs!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! My love for animals brought me to complete a degree in animal science, as well as working as a veterinary assistant. I’ve taken care of all ages - from puppies and kittens to senior animals - and I enjoy every minute of it. I’m certified in CPR and can take care of special or medical needs animals. I can’t wait to meet your best friend! I am currently working part time, so my schedule can be flexible when needed. I’m available on the weekends, holidays, and nights. If you have a specific schedule in mind, feel free to reach out! I am not accepting stays in my home due to space. I am more than happy to do home visits at your home, where your pet is likely more comfortable. I stick to your pets schedule as best as I can and I treat pets as my own!
About: I've taken care of both dogs and cats from a very young age. I lived with two cats for most of my life so feel very comfortable being around and taking care of them. Recently returned to the US after living abroad. My schedule is fairly open at this time. If you have any questions feel free to ask. I’m very cautious and respectful of others’ spaces. While caring for your pet in your home, I make sure to follow all your instructions, keep things clean, and ensure your pet feels safe and comfortable. Your pet’s well-being and your home’s safety are my top priorities.
About: I don’t have TikTok🫡cuz I’d rather spend all my time with my “kids" , talking to them . They’re all the entertainment I need🫵🏻 Animals have always been part of my life 🐾. I can’t remember a time without them. My first companions? Two tiny turtles 🐢 who stuck with me for over 20 years—I even caught bugs for them! Then came a little rabbit 🐇, and later, my first dog, Tequila 🐶. She was by my side for 15 years. Along the way, I also helped care for two dogs, QQ and Niuniu. When I finally had a place of my own, I adopted my first cat, Twotwo. She was the tiniest, most fragile kitten in her litter. A few years later, I found Eighteen at a shelter—lost and in need of a home. Then came Seven, the weakest of them all. He had been abused, fed nothing but cat treats since birth, and was sickly and malnourished, weighing just 60 grams at one-month-old 💔. The vet said he wouldn’t make it. But I refused to give up. For a month, I woke up three times a night to care for him, and somehow, against all odds, he survived 🥹. And it’s not just cats and dogs—I even saved a hummingbird in Mexico after it crashed into a glass window. People think animals need us. But for me, it’s the other way around—I need them more. ✨ I'm home 24/7, always with my 3 cats🐱Every hour, I talk to them, play hide-and-seek, or chase around with them. It's not they need me, actually, I need them more🥲 I've cared for many animals💖I’m not afraid of mess and tailor my care to each pet’s unique personality, respecting their habits and needs💛Many think cats are more independent than dogs, but they’re actually more sensitive and need emotional companionship just as much.

Shobi is absolutely wonderful! So reliable, caring, and communicative. She’s been incredible helpful while my pup and I have adjusted to a new city and schedule. My dog loves her, and I always feel completely comfortable knowing she’s in good hands. Highly recommend!
Natasha is great! She took the time to really understand my dog’s health issues and made sure she knew what to do in the event of a seizure. He seems happy and relaxed with her right away. All smiles in the pictures I got from his report card. I’ll definitely be booking her again!
Stacey has been walking our 9 year old shepherd mix breed dog Moka, for almost 2 years now. She is dependable, flexible and easy to communicate with. She had a natural way of being with Moka since the beginning and their relationship has grown. Moka always seems excited to see Stacey. Moka has some resource guarding and fear aggression tendencies with some other dogs. These have definitely simmered down with time and training but Stacey was receptive to our explanation of these and always responsible, patient and kind when walking and approaching other dogs. The "Rover Cards" we received after each walk were full of good details about her care and pictures of their walking adventures. We often had last minute scheduling needs due to the nature of my job and Stacey was always down to meet our needs. We feel so fortunate to have met and been working with her over the past couple years. We are moving out of country, Stacey has definitely set the bar high for our next dog walker! Highly recommend hiring Stacey for all your pet care needs. She's a gem.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

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 .

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.
