About: I love all critters, large and small. I have two large dogs which I have both trained. They are incredibly well behaved, but I know how to give them space to be rambunctious and playful. It’s so important for pets to have a safe space to be themselves and show their beautiful, unique personalities. I know how to work with senior and leash-aggressive dogs. Kitties are wonderful with minds of their own. I give them attention when they want it, but distance if not. They are cats after all! I can take care of fish too, as I have a tank of them in addition to my dogs. My schedule is extremely flexible! I walk my dogs in the morning, but I can adjust my walk time as needed. For overnights, my husband will take care of our fur babies. I start off with an introduction to you and your pet. Treats are a great way to start off on the right paw! I ensure your pet feels safe and gets to know me. I am caring and loving, and I also know how to give space to your furry one when they need it.
About: I worked for a family friend in their home pet sitting business. I fed, administered meds, walked, played and loved on lots of different breeds of dogs. I’m currently a stay at home mom. I have a pretty wide open schedule at the moment. For now I’m leaving it wide open to see if there’s anything I don’t want to work and then can make changes from there, I’m flexible on times and days. I have an enclosed deck and a fenced in yard with grass and gravel. Plenty of room for the dogs to run around and enjoy some sunshine or some shade from our large oak tree.
About: I have owned cats and dogs since I was a child. Currently a cat mom to 2 boys- Tony & Ozzy! Experience with cats, puppies, elderly dogs & large dogs. I’m a part time student & have a part time job on mondays and tuesdays from 10-7 pm. School is 100% remote! Wednesday-Friday are open! I am a cuddle and zoomie enthusiast! Expect lots of kisses, cuddles, pets and playtime! Will pickup pet waste, messes & do any feeding/medicine for you! Walks are guaranteed!
About: I've been a pet guardian all of my (long-ish) life and I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. I’m reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented — I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. I'm currently not working full time, so I have time to help you look after your animals. My dogs (springer spaniels) lived very long and happy lives, and now I have a solo cat at home. I am available to visit your animals in your home, take them for walks, clean up after them and play with them. I can't have overnights at the moment due to my own pet.
About: I’ve taken care of medium-large dogs for the last 5 years. I’ve trained a puppy and feel very comfortable caring for them and know how important it is to get them out for their walks. I have 4 days off a week (varying days) that I’m very willing to spend time walking and visiting dogs. I enjoy runs myself so if the dogs are up for it we could go or just sit on the couch and relax. I can’t care for pets in my home as I only live in a studio, but I have lived in a house with a fenced in yard where dogs would go out. I have lived in an apartment with a puppy and got very used to going out frequently and running around at the dog parks
About: Hi! I'm Sherrie. I'm the kind of pet sitter who sends photo updates, and may leave your home looking better than when you left. Originally from Hawaii and now based in Ojai, yet travel to you elsewhere is no problem! I've spent years caring for homes, animals, and all the little details that help owners relax while they're away. Dogs and Cats seem to like me. Whether your pet is a couch potato, an adventure buddy, a professional squirrel observer, I'll make sure they get plenty of love, attention, exercise, and companionship. When you're away, I'll provide: • Pet care and companionship • Walks, playtime, and belly rubs (when approved by management) • Medication administration if needed • Home security checks • Regular photo updates My goal is simple: for you to enjoy your trip without worry. I treat every home with respect and every pet like family. Looking forward to meeting your furry, feathered family member. I own my own company so normally have nice flexibility. I can do last minute work at times as well. Happy to discuss. Just ask! I will follow your lead on how to care for them on your property. I always like a solid list of information. Email is fine too
About: Hi, I'm Emily! I will care for your dog just as I care for my own, with lots of care and love! I love getting to know your dog and creating the most comfortable and enjoyable experience possible for them. By the time a dog heads back home, I often feel like I’ve developed a bond with them, and this experience is a big part of why I do it. I have a playful, young cattle dog. I also had a sweet senior chow/shepherd mix. My cattle dog gets along well with seniors, since he was raised with one, just as much as he loves to play with high-energy friends. Currently I work a flexible schedule that allows me flexibility for dog walking/drop ins. Usually I can create time in my schedule based on your dog's needs. As a trusted sitter, I am careful to follow any instructions you have for your dogs needs and the care of your home as well.
“Mike was on time and courteous, and most importantly, developed an instant rapport with my skittish shepherd. He was great at handling her when she tried to bark at a little dog, and got her under control without being harsh. I feel good about him walking her alone.”
About: I’ve been taking care of cats and dogs since I was a kid. I also have been fostering cats and dogs for the past decade. I’ve taken care of animals with disabilities, seniors, and puppies / kittens :) I’m a photographer so my schedule is pretty free. Most days I am at home working on the computer, which makes it easy to spend time with your pups :) I’m a very loving pet sitter. I know basic training and will take them on really fun walks. They will also get all the cuddles!
About: Lifetime of love and experience taking care of animals. From guinea pigs, birds and large tortoises to 100 lb dogs and many animals in between. I will provide a comfortable and safe family home, large fenced yard, two 30 minute walks/day, and infinite love. Don’t mind administering oral meds if needed. I work full time from home all days of the week/end and have a flexible schedule. Happy to provide morning and afternoon walks in a family friendly neighborhood. Your dog will get to stay in a loving family home and will have full access to large fenced yard with plenty of sunshine, grass and shade. Your dog will be pampered with attention, belly rubs and play time. Lots of sunny napping spots for when they want to chill.
About: I am accustomed to living with pets of all sorts of sociability, health, and needs! This is my first year living without a pet, and I really miss it. As an outdoor educator, I'm always looking for an excuse to get outside, and absolutely love being with animals. I'm currently off-season with my guide job, and spend my time hiking, surfing, and volunteering. My availability is completely open, and I'd love to fill it by caring for some cute critters. As a former employee of the Santa Barbara Zoo, I've learned how to interpret an animal's feelings and needs. I am also (human) Wilderness First Responder and CPR certified, and spend much of the year working outdoors guiding children, so your pets will be in experienced hands.
About: I have worked as a veterinary assistant at an animal hospital that also administers emergency care. Because of this, I am very knowledgeable and experienced in medication administration, animal behavior, animal nutrition, emergency care, CPR, and all around animal care. I have owned many animals such as dogs, cats, chickens, a tortoise, and a bird. I also have been around many other animals as well having grown up in a small town with agriculture and having worked at a farm and a pet boarding facility. I have always loved animals and plan to become a veterinarian or RVT one day, caring for any and every animal I can. I am currently very free to spend time with your pet! I am available beginning around 9AM, possibly earlier if needed and discussed in more detail, until around 6PM, also flexible if discussed further. I am ready and excited to give your pets the best loving care throughout the day! In the client’s home, I can make at least 3 if not more daily check-ins and I will stay for at least 30 minutes during each check-in. Over the weekend, I generally am home unless I am running errands. I pay close attention to the pet’s needs and behavior to try to always make sure they are attended to and taken care of.

About: I grew up in Ojai. Both me any my partner have stewarded, raised, and provided care for many different types of animals, dogs, cats, horses cows, etc. I am gentle and introverted, and have good experiences even with animals that tend to be skittish and wary of humans, such as certain cats, rabbits, etc. As a professional pet-sitter, house-sitter, musician, astrologer and handyman, I make my own schedule, and have lots of flexibility. I tend to stay mostly close to home in my beloved Ojai Valley. I love walking and being outdoors, and can do my work from anywhere, which works well for overnights, as I like to work from home or from housesits that I do, and it allows me to be available for pet care around the clock. I can romp with big dogs, but I also really love working with shy animals, as they tend to respond well to my gentle, introverted nature.

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 Ojai. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 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 Meet & Greet .
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
