“Madison came last minute to walk Tap with very short notice. She is amazing! She kept me updated and took him on such a long walk. She is very compassionate and I will definitely be requesting her again!”
About: Mostly all my experience is caring my pets, and friends/family. I am very in tune with my pets and other pets, sensing friendly or unfriendly pets. I'm currently retired and seeking to add 3-4 dog walking sessions per week. I will be available late mornings 10-1pm and late afternoons 4-7pm, Monday - Friday. I currently walk my 8 year old pet, several times daily, leashed around my neighborhood. He is friendly, yet cautious with other dogs. I am respectful with other dog walkers and dogs.
“Samantha took great care of Poppy and we really appreciate her coming over and walking poppy, letting her run around outside and giving her treats”
About: I've grown up with dogs and have taken care of them since I was a child. I am frequently the go-to dog sitter for friends. I just got laid off my job and want to do something that brings me joy. I have no pets and I will only watch one dog at a time (no cats). Your dog will get all the attention and peaceful environment. Free all day. Just got laid off my job and my days are wide open. Free for midday day dog walks or check-ins. Open to boarding on weekends. I frequently dog sit for friends. I'm just making it official with Rover. I live in a condo with my girlfriend, one block from Berkley Lake Park. Great trails and a dog park to explore.
“Darian was excellent with my Frenchie, Charlie. She stuck to his training and made him behave, all while getting out that puppy energy. Looking forward to working with Darian again.”
About: Hi! My name is Alicia but I go by AJ! I have had pets all my life (everything from German Shepherds to Pugs to Blue Heelers to poodles and every mix in between). I have 10 years of experience watching and walking dogs as well as time working at an animal hospital for 3 of those years. Each dog is unique and I aim to individualize their requested service by getting to know them and their family during our initial meet and greet. Whether it’s for a walk, house sit, or a drop-in visit, I want your dog to be as happy and stress-free as possible! I currently work from home, so my schedule is highly flexible. Your pet will have constant companionship, regular bathroom breaks, and structured walks right alongside my daily routine. Because of my flexible schedule, I can easily integrate walks and drop-in visits throughout the day to meet your needs. I treat your pets as my own. I love to know how they like to play and what they like to do based on their energy level. I always try to keep you up to date with pictures and text updates about their day. I like to keep their routine as close to their usual as possible to reduce stress.
“Lara was helpful last minute and very communicative. I will definitely continue to use her for dog walking and house sitting services in the future.”
About: Hi! I'm Casey! I've owned dogs for 10 years and have 3 years of pet sitting experience. Please tell me all about your pet and their unique quirks so I can treat them the way they want to be treated <3 I raised my current dog from 13 weeks old, and she's the light of my life, so I know how important it is to hire a sitter you trust to join your dog's pack. I believe that all dogs deserve rich and full lives where they get to explore, use their brain, and build lasting bonds with the humans in their life. I have experience working with high-energy dogs, rescues, skittish babies, and reactive dogs. I also have experience administering medication and caring for dogs with health and mobility challenges. I care for all ages, from puppies to seniors. My two dogs are fun-loving and very smart, so I know how important it is to provide not only physical activity, but mental stimulation. While on walks, I'll keep your pup engaged by having them practice commands and sniff in the grass for treats. One of my favorite things to do with my dog is practicing or learning new tricks using positive reinforcement and consistent practice, and I'd be happy to do the same with your pup! I also love taking photos of pets too and will gladly provide photo updates. Fun fact, my first ever job was at a kennel, where I took care of dogs and cats. My mom calls me a "dog professional" :) I work from home, so I can be flexible to accommodate your needs. I have 3 years of pet sitting experience so I already know how to make it work in my life! I always respect boundaries by reading your pet's behavior cues. Please tell me all about your pet's unique needs so I can make sure they are comfortable! I'll always leave your home exactly as you left it.
About: “Passionate dog lover with a lifetime of experience caring for dogs and cats! I enjoy taking pets on fun walks and making sure they’re happy and well cared for.” As someone who works from home, I can easily accommodate your pet’s needs throughout the day—whether it’s for walks, playtime, feeding, or just companionship and attention. Living in an apartment allows me to be attentive to your pet’s needs all day. I ensure dogs get regular walks on a leash, along with playtime and companionship.
“Marshall is always happy to see Baptiste. He is great with Marshall. We book with Baptiste whenever he is available. He always responds promptly to texts, is very reliable and very personable.”
About: Apart from loving and taking care of my family’s three dachshunds and two cats, I also have years of experience caring for other people’s pets. I have followed detailed care instructions when handling multiple dogs at a time and have experience administering medications to elderly dogs. I not only make sure your pet’s needs are taken care of, but I think it’s important to give them extra love to keep them happy and feelings safe while their favorite people are away. I’m currently wrapping up my current position and am excited to focus more on growing my art business. I’m looking for flexible work that fits alongside my creative career, which makes pet sitting a perfect fit. My schedule allows me to be reliable, responsive, and able to spend quality time with the pets in my care. Whether it’s walks, drop in visits, or overnight stays, I’ll make sure your pets receive the attention, consistency, and care they deserve. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to get to know them and follow your care instructions closely. I strive to create a calm, positive environment where pets feel safe and loved while you’re away. I’m dependable, communicative, and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. I also treat every home with the same care and respect I would my own.
“Rachel was wonderful with my dog and extra communicative. She took her time on each walk and made sure to include detailed updates after. I will definitely rebook with Rachel in the future”
“Manny has done great with Amos. I wanted to start getting my dog more time out midday and Manny has helped a lot with that. He's kind, personable, gets along well with my little guy and is easy to communicate with. He comes recommended. Thanks!”
About: I jog and exercise often. By adding others beloved pets to the mix a great fit would be reached for all parties involved. I have an incredible amount of patience for animals, since I know they do not have malicious attributes, just badly placed instincts at times. I have supervised hundreds of employees as a warehouse coordinator in my time, so working with a few animals (who never have massive egos) is a breeze. I know I can talk freely with these pets and they will listen and never talk back. I have befriended several dogs in my lifetime that were considered "nasty or mean". I never used treats to gain favor, I just remained unwavering in pursuit of gaining trust without hostility or showing fear. I freelance doing a myriad of fun activities to make money. I am fortunate enough to have discovered many different ways, in a variety of industries, to happily make my way through life, I will have a direct eye of supervion on dogs the vast majority of time. I don't believe in "boarding dogs" (keeping them locked up or partioned off except when necessary for brief periods of time). I house dogs (they roll with me everywhere during stay).
“Lauren is the best! Clearly looks out for our dog, adjusting schedules with plenty of communication and care for the weather or other unforeseen circumstances. Thank you Lauren!”
“Yamilex walked my two small dogs while I was out of town for an extended period of time and was AMAZING with communication, and really took care of my babies!! Knowing my babies were taken care of while I was gone truly made all the difference. If you need your dogs walked book her!! 🫶🙏”
About: I'm active and have a flexible schedule that's perfect for dog sitting. I love to run with dogs, and take frequent walks around the park. When I work from home it's lovely to have some company. I dont mind specific diets if dogs have them, and have experience watching various breeds of all different sizes. Some examples are: King Charles Cavalier, English Springer Spaniels, English Mastiffs, Goldendoodles and Scottish Terriers. My flexible schedule allows for me to be highly attentive to dogs if necessary.
About: After I lost my first dog after 16 years, I took some time off from pet ownership. But I got my fill of pet love by taking care of a friend's pets who relied on me for walking, overnight boarding, feeding, and caring for their pets. Although I have a pet now, I still love to help others I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I am able to play and walk pets throughout the day as necessary. I have a teenage son who also helps me out as needed. I have a fenced yard. I am available to stop at the client's house and check in / play with pets. I can board a pet in my house as long as they are good with other dogs. I live close to a dog park and trails

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Mountain View
Maria was wonderful and took such great care of our 55 lb senior Husky and 115 lb Great Dane during their daily walks while we were out of town! Both of our dogs needed daily exercise, and Maria took them on hour-long walks each day. She also sent detailed report cards and pictures from every walk, which was such a thoughtful touch and gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. It was especially reassuring knowing she could comfortably handle both our senior Husky and our very large Great Dane. We had a fantastic experience and would absolutely recommend Maria to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring dog walker!
Evelyn was absolutely wonderful! I got sick, & last minute reached out. She was able to accommodate my request (grateful for the WFH dog lovers!!) & took Astro on his “big walk.” Astro seemed perfectly happy & TIRED (yay!!) when he got home. Highly recommend Evelyn!

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 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 , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

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 .
walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
