About: What makes my care special is the genuine attention and affection I give every dog who stays with me. I take time to learn each pup’s personality, routine, and what helps them feel safe and comfortable. I have experience caring for senior dogs, puppies, large breeds, multi-dog families, and pups who may be shy or need extra patience. Introductions are done slowly, and dogs can have separate spaces when they need quiet time or aren’t comfortable socializing. Because I work from home most days, I’m able to provide frequent supervision, outdoor time, cuddles, and one-on-one attention. My backyard has artificial turf for safe play and zoomies, along with cozy indoor areas where pups can relax. I provide regular photo and video updates so you can stay connected while you’re away. Drop-off and pickup times are arranged in advance so every arrival and departure goes smoothly. Most importantly, I truly love what I do and care for every pup as if they were part of my family. 🐾💕 Because I work from home most days, pet care fits naturally into my routine. Each pup receives frequent supervision, regular potty breaks, supervised backyard playtime, meals, cuddles, and plenty of time to rest throughout the day. Drop-off and pickup times are arranged in advance within agreed time windows so every arrival and departure goes smoothly. Safety and comfort always come first. My home has a fully fenced backyard with artificial turf for supervised play and zoomies. Soft background music may also be played at a low volume to create a calm, relaxing atmosphere while the pups play or unwind. I host a limited number of dogs and use slow introductions to make sure everyone feels comfortable. Separate areas and cozy indoor spaces are available for pups who need quiet time or prefer not to socialize. I follow each pet’s routine closely and provide regular photo and video updates so you can stay connected while you’re away.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I grew up with my childhood dog and cared for him for 17 years until he passed away. I now have three huskies, so taking care of dogs is a big part of my everyday life. I’m reliable, patient, and comfortable with high-energy dogs. I know how important it is to have someone you trust taking care of your pets while you’re away, and I’ll follow their normal routine, give them plenty of attention, and keep you updated with pictures along the way. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. I’m happy to coordinate schedules in advance and keep your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible while you’re away. I’ll follow the routine and instructions you leave for your pets and make sure they’re safe and comfortable while in my care. I’m careful when coming and going, especially with doors, gates, and leashes. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own and keep you updated while you’re away.
“We hired Dawna to walk our two labs while we were gone for 5 days. She did an excellent job taking care of them, feeding them and ensuring they got their exercise. She regularly communicated with us and provided updates and photos. She also was always on time. We are very pleased with her service and our dogs took a liking to her for sure. She has dogs of her own and was in her comfort zone. I highly recommend her and we will use her again if needed. Thanks Dawna!”

“I have never used a dog walk service before but was going out of town and thought it would be a nice treat for my dog who was already having someone come to feed and take him out for bathroom breaks. Vanessa did a great job and I just know my dog was so happy to have someone take him for his walks. Vanessa was professional, on time, communicative and took adorable pictures and wrote a description of each walk. She even offered to come meet Bruno the day before the walk. Thanks Vanessa! ?”
About: Welcome to our profile! We are Des and Treo Bell! When it comes to pet care, our combined efforts are unmatched. Des has been raising stray cats for 14 years. Treo has been working at a pet care facility for 12. Together they have adopted two dogs, a cat and a bunny, with many more to come! We know a lot of pets require 24 hour care but some pet sitters might not be unable to give that due to schedule conflict. A problem we have taken care of by offering our 2 for 1 pet sitter special! We have lots of experience with different kinds of animals and temperaments. From chickens to lizards, we have got you covered! We also have lots of experience with young pups, senior dogs, giving medications and other varying special needs! * We understand how important and stressful it can be finding the perfect person for your pet care needs and we want to support you however we can. With that being said, we ask that you please disclose prior to meeting if you have already booked with or are seriously considering another party. We gladly provide services for a large area of the bay, so physical meet and greets come at some expense to us. We’re very grateful for your understanding!

Des takes care of the pets in the day time; morning walk, breakfast, a bit of playtime. Treo is home for the evening routine; dinner, walk and lots of attention.

About: I’ve been surrounded by pets throughout my childhood and into adulthood, and caring for animals has always been a natural and meaningful part of my life. Growing up, I learned the joy and responsibility that comes with having a pet — from everyday care and companionship to understanding their individual personalities and needs. Over the years, my love for animals has only grown. I truly enjoy spending time with pets, giving them attention, keeping them comfortable, and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. As a lifelong pet owner and animal lover, I understand that pets are family, and I treat every pet in my care with the same patience, kindness, and affection I would want for my own. I work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility and availability to dedicate time and attention to the care and needs of your beloved pets. I’m able to provide the companionship, care, and consistency they deserve, while making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved in your absence. I understand how valuable and important your pets are to you, and I’m committed to treating them like family. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I take the time to create a calm, clean, and secure environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for. I follow each pet’s routine and any special instructions from their owner, while giving them plenty of attention, patience, and companionship. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big responsibility. I treat every pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own, and I want you to feel confident knowing they are in caring, responsible hands while you’re away.
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with over ten years of experience as a dedicated dog parent, plus years of caring for the dogs of neighbors, friends, and family. From dog walking to pet sitting, I treat every dog like they’re my own because I know how much they mean to you. When you book with me, you can trust that your pet will receive the best care possible, with plenty of love, attention, and respect. I have plenty of time to care for your doggie! I’m available Monday through Friday, and occasionally on Sundays just let me know in advance. Thank you for considering me as your dog or cat sitter, and/or dog walker. I’m very respectful of people’s homes and highly communicative. I will provide updates of your doggie if that is something you would like. I always ask about your dog’s routine so I can provide the best care possible.
About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them comes naturally to me. Since I was 10 years old, I’ve helped care for dogs, cats, fish, and other beloved pets — learning that every animal has their own personality, needs, and way of communicating. Friends and family trust me to walk, feed, bathe, play with, and lovingly care for their pets while they’re away. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, happy, active, and genuinely loved in my care. I’m reliable, attentive, calm under pressure, and treat every pet like family. As a gentle added touch, I’m also experienced in animal reiki, which I’m happy to incorporate during visits if welcomed by both pet and owner to help encourage relaxation and comfort. Whether your pet loves playtime, quiet companionship, or extra patience and reassurance, I’ll meet them where they are with love, warmth and care. I currently work part-time. I have plenty of time to play with your fur babies. I am available most days and weekends, including most holidays. I have a fenced dog-friendly where your dog can roam and play. I have a beautiful lawn and a beautiful tree lined neighborhood for long walks.
About: I have been taking care of pets (none professional) since I was in diapers, I also currently volunteer at Antioch Animal Shelter. I have more experience with pets 1 year+ but I’m comfortable with younger pets as well. I do have another job but we get to pick our own schedules so there will be no issues there. I can work with your schedule I treat pet sitting like babysitting, your baby, your rules. Whatever you decide for your pet is what I will do no questions asked. I would never want to come into someone else’s home and change the way you do things. If there is anything I’m uncomfortable with I will be sure to communicate it effectively and immediately.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I fill in for my daughter when she is on vacation. We also have 3 dogs, 4 birds and a cat in home now. Can’t ask for a more rewarding job. Animals just fill our lives with joy and love. I help my daughter with pet care in home and feel this would be a good fit for me. We have a well fenced and secure home for pets. Double gated entrance so dogs cannot get to the front door. Our animals get along well with others.

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 Oakley. 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. 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.

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.

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.
