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! :)
“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!”
“I didn't get to meet Halona in person, but my wife said she was very nice. Also, she was quick with responses when we were planning the walk for my dog. I will definitely contact her again! Thank you!”
About: Hello, my name is Abbi! I would love to help lighten your load and cherish your pets! I have owned cats and dogs. I also have worked as a caregiver for developmentally disabled adults as well as babysitting jobs when I was younger. That being said I am well versed on administering medications and keeping grooming standards. I have a slightly flexible schedule that I hope will be convenient to your pets needs. I’m willing to negotiate. I hope to hear from you and work together soon! I work from home and live in a facility with a fenced in dog park. There are no other animals or children in my home. I like to keep my full attention on any animal in my care whilst they’re awake. I keep animals close by to me so I can monitor them. I don’t keep anything in my home that is hazardous to them.
About: I offer calm, personalized care in a quiet home where your dog is treated like family, not one of many in a busy boarding facility or a home with multiple dogs. I typically host one household at a time, so your dog gets my full attention, genuine affection, and all the cuddles they can handle. My home is the right fit for friendly dogs who love companionship, walks, and settling into a peaceful routine. I'm especially drawn to dogs who thrive with one-on-one attention rather than the noise and energy of a busy multi-dog environment. I'm certified in Pet CPR, Healing Touch for Animals, and Reiki. And beyond the credentials, I'm deeply attuned to each dog's personality and energy. That attunement is what helps them settle in quickly and feel genuinely at ease. My connection to animals runs deep. I spent five years volunteering at Lindsay Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, working in both the mammal department and wildlife hospital with injured and recovering animals. That experience sharpened my understanding of animal behavior and reinforced something I already believed: animals feel safety before they understand it. My goal is always to create that feeling from the moment your dog arrives! Because I work from home, pets in my care are rarely left alone for long periods and receive plenty of attention, walks, and companionship throughout the day. When pets stay in my home, they become part of a calm and comfortable daily routine. I primarily host dogs from 1 household at a time so each pet receives plenty of individual attention. Dogs here enjoy daily walks, playtime, and relaxed downtime, and I’m home much of the day since I work from home. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs so they feel safe and settled. For drop-in visits or walks in a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, walks, litter care for cats, playtime, and companionship. I’m happy to send photo updates so owners know their pets are doing well.
“We hired Diane for drop-ins and for walking our senior dog and we were very happy with her service. You can tell she has a lot of experience with dogs. I recommend her to anyone! Thanks, Dede!”
About: I have had pets my entire life. I raised my two (now adult) children surrounded by animals including multiple dogs, cats, chickens, goats, bunnies, guinea pigs, hamsters, parakeets, geckos, etc... This is the first time in my life that I do not have a furry or feathered friend to care for, as my fiancee and I are still getting settled in our home. This is a perfect way for me to get my animal fix and love on your doggies who will get my full attention. I'm a part time college art student with a pretty flexible schedule. I am home most of the time. My fiancee also works from home. I have a fenced back yard and walking trails right by my home. My home has plenty of space for a crate or any other accommodations your pet might need. I do not currently have any pets of my own, so your babies will get my full attention.
“Aileen was responsive, on time, great at communicating, followed instructions, and did a great job walking my Malinois long enough for her to get a bit of exercise and much needed potty break while we were out of town on a day trip.”
About: Hi! I’m one of those people who can’t walk past a dog without saying hi. If I see a dog while I’m out, I’m probably the person asking, “Can I pet your dog?” My child is exactly the same way! We’re both naturally drawn to dogs and genuinely enjoy having them around. Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Three of my own dogs were with me for 16, 16, and 18 years, and they truly became members of the family. I understand how much our dogs mean to us and how important it is to feel comfortable with the person caring for them when we can’t be there. Our current dog, Pancake, is a rescue and a small, friendly girl who enjoys having company. She’s an important part of our family and will be your pup’s little host during their stay! I also volunteered at two animal shelters, where I spent time caring for dogs with different personalities and needs. I am patient, attentive, and respectful of each dog’s individual temperament. I have a large, fully fenced yard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time. My home is a good fit for dogs who are comfortable around children and other dogs. Because I have a child at home 50% of the time, your dog must be comfortable and safe around children. I also want every dog who stays here to feel comfortable with Pancake, so I take introductions and meet-and-greets seriously. ❤️ What I Want for Your Dog I want your dog to feel like they are staying in a home where they are genuinely cared for, not simply being dropped off somewhere for the night. I’ll take the time to learn your dog’s routine, personality, favorite things, and anything that helps them feel comfortable. Whether your pup wants to run around the yard, play with Pancake, follow us around the house, or curl up somewhere cozy, I’ll respect their individual personality. During their stay, I’ll provide: 🐾 A comfortable home environment 🐾 A large, fully fenced yard 🐾 Regular potty breaks and outdoor time 🐾 Attention, companionship, and affection 🐾 Meals according to your instructions 🐾 Their normal routine as much as possible 🐾 Photo updates so you can see how they’re doing 🌿 New to Rover, Not New to Caring for Dogs I’m just getting started on Rover, so I’m offering introductory pricing while I build my profile and get to know local families. While I’m new to Rover, caring for dogs is something I’ve been doing throughout my life. I’m looking forward to getting to know some wonderful dogs and their people and hopefully becoming someone you feel comfortable calling whenever you need a home away from home for your pup. I’d love to meet you and your dog and see if we’re a good fit! 🐶❤️ I’m available for boarding at evenings and weekends. All-day-Thursdays are also available. Walks from 6-7 a.m. - Mondays and Tuesdays Walks from 5-6 p.m. or 6-7 p.m. - Mondays and Tuesdays My yard is fully fenced, my dog is friendly, and the dogs will be welcome inside the home and on furniture as well. I really want them to feel they are in they home-away-form-home
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for all kinds of pets. I’ve owned a wide variety of animals so I’m comfortable with all animals and their different needs! I currently have 3 cats and a dog of my own, and I also frequently house sit and care for friends’ pets. I’m responsible, caring, and always treat every pet like they’re my own. I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to have plenty of extra time to care for animals. I’m able to work around different schedules and am available for regular walks, drop-ins, house sitting, and giving pets the attention and care they need throughout the day. I always make sure pets are in a safe, comfortable, and clean environment. I follow each pet’s routine and any instructions their owner provides, and I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure everything is kept clean and secure.
About: Ive taken care of dogs since I was 9 and I’ve taken care of cats since I was in kindergarten. When going to friend’s homes I am respectful of special diets for their fur babies and follow the family’s list of requirements for their pets. I’ve taken care of pets for both friends and family. I’ve helped feed, walk and administer meds. Im working part time so I will have plenty of time to spend with pets to play, feed, walk and help enrich their lives while you’re away. I am playful, caring and gentle with furry friends. I like to make them feel as comfortable as possible around me so they know they can trust me. I like to also get to know the family and how they care for their pet in different circumstances to make sure I am doing things that your pet is used to.
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.
About: I’ve been trusted by my family, friends, and friend of friends to care for their dogs and cats over the years. I love being able to bond with the animals I’m caring for. I am a part-time college student at the moment, so I’ve got a flexible schedule when it comes to caring for your pets. I can work around your needs. I care for the pets I watch like they are my own. I make sure all of their needs are met and try to keep them comfortable.
About: Currently taking reservation for November and December!! Christmas sitting still available on calendar :) Hello! My name is Hosana and I am currently an undergraduate college student at UCSD. I have loved animals for as long as I could remember! Growing up in a smaller home, I was never able to own a dog of my own, but being obsessed with animals, I wouldn't let this stop me from being around them an gaining as much experience as I could by taking care of pets for friends and family throughout my life. Eventually I started working at a local doggy daycare/ pet boarding facility in Walnut Creek known as, North Main Pet Lodge. I have about a year's worth of experience working professionally with a multitude of different dog breeds and taking care of their daily needs. I've worked with both dogs and cats, and other small animals such as hamsters, rabbits, and such and know how to administer medication, bathe, feed, and do other tasks related to pet care. Staying flexible and knowing how to deal with all sorts of situations is something I have come to be very acquainted with through my work experience. Communication is of big importance to me and making sure all pet parents stay informed throughout their stay away from their pets. Currently I am working on my finishing my degree online and no longer need to attend classes on campus. Therefore I will be in the bay area permanently and am looking to work with those who need the occasional sitter. Have been actively sitting for my clients since 2025. Please feel free to contact me and help this college student out with your business, as I also look forward to spending time with your pets! Thanks for reading :) Currently taking online classes. Would be ideal for pet parents who want someone to be at the house often for daily routine, but also able to step away for up to 4 hrs at a time few days of the weekdays (usually Mon, Fri). Weekends I am almost always available all day. Almost always at home for morning, afternoon potty breaks, evening, overnight. When in a client's home, the pet's safety and health are my number one concern. With my experience, I have learned several tricks that help with a variety of temperaments and personalities that each dog has. I also believe in being respectful of my client's homes and will take that very seriously. Overall, any specific concerns or lists can be communicated to me and I will make sure to keep an open line of communication.
About: My grandpa blessed me with my first puppy when I was 5yo. I cannot recall a time when I didn't have a loyal furry sidekick ever since. I am determined to provide you with ease of mind by walking, sitting, feeding, caring and loving your 4 legged family members. I am currently working a full time job from home with available time from 10am to 2pm Monday to Friday; and anytime during the weekends. Saturday would be the one day I can dog sit over night. I am diligently taking notes of your pet's usual schedule, any medications or peculiarities and will attentively obey your instructions. Otherwise, I am known for responsibly spoiling doggos 😁

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.
