About: I strive to provide a welcoming, enriching home away from home for your dog. To ensure the best care possible, I only accept up to 2 dogs at a time. You can expect regular updates throughout your pup’s stay. Safety is a top priority. I check my yard regularly for potential hazards and do paw checks for foxtails after every walk. I have a large fenced yard with plenty of space for zoomies. Dogs can explore the garden, sunbathe on the grass, or lounge under the shaded pergola. Pets are welcome on the couch, and I also have extra dog beds and an indoor dog house for pups who prefer a little more personal space. My experience: I have a 6yo maltipoo named Chewy and 14yo shihtzu named Joey. They are very respectful of other dogs’ personal space. I trained Chewy using positive reinforcement and taught him many tricks and commands. I have been caring for dogs of all sizes and ages since I was 15. My senior dog experience includes fostering one who was adopted into her forever home and providing long-term care for two others. I’m very comfortable administering medication, preparing special diets, and grooming. Rover is a side hobby, and I ask for a little advance notice so I can prepare for my doggie guest. I follow the schedule provided by the paw-parents. If none is given then it’s usually a morning potty break, breakfast, walk, mid day potty break, dinner, and potty before bedtime. Playtime is sprinkled throughout the day or I may incorporate it with their meal time like food in a puzzle toy. I tailor care to each dog’s needs. Every day includes physical exercise or mental stimulation such as daily walks, fetch, tug-of-war, command training, puzzle toys. Let me know how your preferences during the Meet & Greet so I can match your dog’s routine.
“Maria goes above and beyond to make sure Leo gets a good walk and all his puppy needs are met. She even stopped in for a quick potty break when she was in the area on an extremely hot day. I trust her and highly recommend her!”
“So energetic and sweet. Went above and beyond to give my pup a good walk.Even though Leo is usually shy, he was excited to meet her during meet & greet. Thanks so much!”
About: Hi everyone! I am a UCLA student, in to the bay area. I've watched dogs for as long as I can remember. I have dog walked, bathed/dried dogs, and dog sat for many close friends. I have also volunteered at a dog grooming shop where I cleaned, dried dogs, and entertained them while out of crate. I have handled "easy" dogs, reactive dogs, large, medium, and small dogs. I absolutely love animals and especially dogs, I have since I was pretty much born. I have experienced atypical needs in dogs, and understand every dog is different. They bring so much joy to our days and I love making bonds with them. My schedule is flexible so please reach out, I'd love to make things work to meet your pups! Can't wait to hear from you! I work remote currently so my free time varies per day, but I am very flexible! Being with dogs, make my days so much better so any visits I love! When walking your dog, I can easily spot reactive dogs and will make sure we stay away, your dog's safety is my number 1 priority. I will always want to get to know your dog and its personality to know how to walk them safely. I will always be alongside your dog inside and outside the house. If I'm in your home that has a yard, I will always double-check there is no escape. I always go outside alongside the dog because you never know what can wander into the backyard, especially when it's dark.
About: Need someone you can trust to care for your furry family while you're away? I'm a lifelong animal lover and proud cat mom to Aster Blue, my sweet 11-year-old boy who loves other animals, too! I offer attentive, loving pet care, whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, or keeping your pets comfortable in their own home. I understand that every animal has their own personality and needs, and I'll treat your furry family with the same patience, affection, and care I give my own. Available seven days a week and around for holiday pet sitting. I'd love to meet your four-legged family! I currently work part-time, locally, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available mornings, afternoons and evenings as well as all weekend long. I have a fenced yard and a friendly cat to keep your fur babies company, as well as a park nearby where I can take dogs to play.
“Yulia was an all star! She is a wonderful communicator! She really took care of our dogs like her own! We really enjoyed the daily pictures of our pups! Will definitely hire her again when we are in need!”
About: No walk is too long with a four-legged companion! I've raised and walked dogs since they were puppies to "mature" adults. Also, dealt with large dogs with aggressive tendencies. I am currently a self-employed chef, so I have the freedom to make my own schedule. I can almost always be available with one day's notice. I love playing with dogs in their own yards and or homes. It shows you a whole other side of them. And, of course, feeding time is the way to any dog's heart! (or human) I am living in a 2-bedroom apartment so large dogs are not preferred. However, I have had large dog sleepovers with no problems. Just lots of walks! :)
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, from little puppies and kittens to older pals who need extra care. My own elderly cat and dogs have needed ear drops, oral medicine, and insulin injections. I don’t just fill the bowls and leave. I stay for real visits with play, treats, cuddles, or quiet time, whatever helps your pet feel at home. Every animal is different. Some want lots of affection and some need space. That’s fine with me. Even the ones who like distance still get attention in a way that feels right for them. I’m happy to care for birds, fish, bugs, or other small pets too, as long as you show me what to do. I can also water plants, bring in the mail, and help with other little house things. Your pets feel safe and loved while you’re away, and you feel at ease knowing they’re in good hands! I work remotely from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate visits throughout the day. I’m generally available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, with the only exceptions being occasional scheduled work meetings. I know my meeting schedule in advance, so we can coordinate visit times ahead of booking to make sure I’m available when your pets need me! I treat every client's home with the same care and respect that I would want someone to show my own home. I’m mindful of keeping things clean, following your instructions and routines, and making sure your pets are comfortable in their familiar environment. I understand how much trust it takes to let someone into your home and care for your animals, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to make your time away as worry free as possible, knowing both your pets and your home are in good hands.
About: As a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent to my dog Honey and cats Zoey, Fynn, and Toby I know just how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I bring not only personal experience but also hands-on training from fostering animals and volunteering at our local animal shelter. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets of all kinds—each with their own personality, quirks, and needs. From energetic pups who need long walks to shy kitties who need patience and a gentle touch, I tailor my care to suit every pet. Whether you’re looking for daily check-ins or dog walks, I provide dependable, loving attention to keep your pets happy, healthy, and relaxed while you’re away. I’m also experienced with administering medication and working with pets that need a little extra care or reassurance. Let’s connect and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away My current job is only part time, and I have a very flexible schedule to accommodate your pets needs. I am available almost every morning and afternoon. I provide fresh food and water at all times, clean litter boxes/ pick up dog poop and make sure to spend some time with each pet and provide enrichment activities.
“Jenna was available last minute to walk my pup when I was in a bind. She even made the time to walk my puppy twice! Jenna sent pictures and updates from their walks. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of and had many different pets. I often take care of two senior pets who get medication and need extra help. I have a puppy of my own and have taught him many tricks. I can do morning, night, and check ins during the afternoons. I have class mon-thurs, and able to check in afterwards. I walk my own dog twice daily and take him to the dog park often. I can easily crate your pet if needed and am able to watch your pet to make sure they don’t get into anything. Doors will stay closed if needed and gates put up.
About: I love dogs and have a beautiful 13 year old Staffie Terrier. Have a great sense and calm with dogs. Would prefer to come to your home for overnights or visits. My dog can be territorial so I will not bring your dog(s) to my home. I have a busy job and love it. I do have flexibility as I can work from home on some days. I have flexibility in the evenings and weekends. If I come to your home, I will love your dog and give it lots of love. Lots of cuddles, too! Thank you for considering.
About: Hi I live in beautiful Walnut Creek next to the Iron Horse trail. It is very peaceful and safe here. I live in a very dog friendly area which is heaven on earth to me. My home is clean and cozy and I will take very good care of your pet while you are not with them. They will have plenty of space to run and play out on my patio or grass area, or I can take them on a walk on the trail, if that is what they are accustomed to. I am very confident that your fur baby will love me and I will love and take great care of them. Lots of Hugs and snuggles coming your pets way. I am home everyday and would love to spoil your little fur baby while you are away We love to play and keep your pet company. I have a fenced in patio yard and lots of space to roam and play when going for a walk. I can also feed special diet if need be
About: Hi there! I have taken care of 5+ different families pets that include dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, etc! I love taking care of dogs & cats especially and have experience in pets of all ages. I also have experience in emergency situations with elderly pets, that called for immediate vet attention, puppy emergencies of all sorts, and even reactive pets. I develop a deep care for animals and prioritize learning each and every pets personality and needs. My professional work consists of freelance work, so in between I love to surround myself with animals and nature. A lot of the time my freelance work is done from my computer. To balance that out, I frequently go out into nature as part of my routine when time allows so for those who have pets who need outdoor time, I'm a great fit for you! As long as I have my cup of joe, and my laptop I'm a pretty easy going person! My approach to taking care and building a trusting relationship with your pet would focus on prioritizing their needs by learning their personalities. Some pets who have separation anxiety require a lot of affection, some who are high energy require a bit more exercise, and some who need mental stimulation just need exposure to different smells or visual stimulation! It just depends on what your pet needs.
“Elizabeth walked my dog for three days in a row while I recovered she was patient with Stanley he looked forward to the walks every day. She put up with his gopher hobby and squirrel addiction.”
About: I trained my reactive childhood dog at 16, and had great success! After he passed, I began volunteering at my local shelter. I can’t afford a dog right now, so I have much love saved up to share with everyone else’s dogs! I work part time, and I’m in school. I’m free Mondays after 2pm and Wednesdays after 2pm - Thursday before 4pm for an overnight stay. I have a separate unit in my home where my cats stay when dogs come over, so don’t worry if your dog isn’t cat friendly! I have a large fenced yard, with lots of things to sniff and squirrels to chase.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Pacheco
Stephanie is awesome! My big lab is pretty anxious and excitable around new people and she warmed right up to Stephanie. She is super calm, confident, and obviously an experienced dog handler, and I felt great about sending my big fur baby off with her for an adventure. Will definitely be hiring her again for dog walks!
Máire has been walking our senior pittie for a few weeks now and I can really say Máire has been doing a great job. Super communicative. On time. And my dog loves Máire. My dog can be pretty people selective when it comes to actually liking people and she never has a problem leaving with Máire. Maire is very understanding of my dog’s senior shenanigans and her health problems that have caused her to slow down as she’s gotten older. I have continued to re-book with Máire consistently.

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 Pacheco. 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 a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Pacheco after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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.

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.
