About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I have for every pet I care for. I treat them like my own, taking time to make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I’m great with all ages—from playful puppies who need guidance and fun, to senior pets who need a slower, gentle, and caring touch. I always adjust to their needs and personality. I also love keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages so you always know your furry baby is safe, loved, and in good hands. Taking care of pets fits easily into my daily routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I love going on walks, playing, giving belly rubs and cuddles, and making sure every pet feels happy, safe, and loved. Caring for them never feels like work—it’s something I genuinely look forward to every day! I care for every pet like they’re part of my own family. I love getting to know their unique personalities and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s going for walks, playing with their favorite toys, giving cuddles, sticking to their feeding routine, or just keeping them company, I’m happy to do whatever helps them feel at home. I also love sending photos and little updates so you can relax knowing your furry friend is happy and in good hands.
“Ivan just started walking my dogs. He has been great, he came for a meet and greet and both of my dogs liked him immediately. He has been on time and his communication has been great. I have weekly walks booked with him already. Thanks Ivan!”
“Alyssa was wonderful and treated my 2 dogs so well! She showed up on time for all the walks and communicated information about each walk on the Rover website. She even included some cute pics! I will definitely book with Alyssa again!”
“So happy to have found Marisela. She is very accommodating and flexible and showed very gentle care with my pup, which I of course adored right away. She texts me pictures, videos and lets me know when she picks my doggie up and drops her off. I know my dog is in good hands and I can go to work without worry or feeling guilty. I trust Marisela to be here for my pup and that they have a great time. Thank you!”
“Meghann is personable and a pro. I have an insecure rescue pup and she was great with him and knew how to slowly establish trust. I would definitely work with her again when needed.”
About: Hi! I’m Grace! I’m a dog lover with experience caring for my own dogs as well as family and friends’ pets. I’ve cared for dogs with different personalities and needs, and I love getting to know each pup and their routine. I’m currently completing an online school program, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pup! I’m generally available Monday through Thursday and every other Friday, with flexibility throughout the day for walks and drop ins! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. For walks and drop-ins, I’ll carefully follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, potty breaks, medications if needed, and any specific safety requests. I’ll always make sure doors and gates are securely closed and that your pup is supervised throughout our visit. I’ll also treat your home with care and respect and keep you updated so you can feel confident while you’re away. I am also very open to meet and greets beforehand! Whatever helps you and your pup feel most comfortable.
About: Hi! I’m Victor! I love animals! Over the past 6 years or so friends and clients have hired me to pet sit, dog walk, drop in on their cat, look after the puppy, feed the bunny, you name it!! I’ve got tons of animal experience from being out in nature so often in my life. My older brother worked for the zoo when I was growing up, I held all sorts of reptiles and birds. I exercise daily, so adding your dog to the routine is a great way to spice things up! Although I’ll do my best to match your dog’s energy. Getting excited enough for a run is a good thing, but calmness has value too. I do command training whilst out and about with your dog reinforced with treats and/or attention. I try to care for your pet as best I can while you’re away. Currently I am enrolled in class once a week so I have availability to be certain your pet has attention all throughout the day, alone for 3 hours at the longest. Typically I walk the dogs I sit for about 1-4 hours over the course of 2 walks and 2 relief breaks to get outside. I believe it’s important for dogs to be outside and experience smells. It’s so cute to see them sniff around! I wake up to do exercises before taking the dog out on what aims to be a long morning walk. Especially if we didn’t get out the night before. This ranges from 3-6miles depending on how much time we have. Upon returning, breakfast, stretches and playtime. At this point, if I have work, I step out until I’m finished and then return for an afternoon walk, dinner, stretches, and a relief walk before zzz. Without work I’ll cuddle with the dog, clean up the place, cook some food, do various training exercises with the dog, or go out on extra walks. I don’t offer boarding services at my place unfortunately.

I know how to handle dogs of all shapes and sizes and temperament ranges. I own my own dog, Obie, so I am always caring. I am open most days of the week excluding Tuesdays and Thursdays when I have class. I am available mornings though on those days. I am well versed in adapting to the dogs specific environments it’s comfortable in, matching its energy level and always being comforting and loving no matter what.
About: I will deliver very gentle care with so much love and awareness. I truly love pets and I will keep them save and happy, active if needed and cuddled when requested I am available Friday through Sunday to I take care of little creatures. I live right beside a dog friendly beach and can accommodate long walks or hikes. I will follow all the rules provided by the pet owner. I love staying active and bringing pets with me on hikes and carrying for them in any other capacity
About: I have a deep care and understanding for dogs. I have taken care of young puppies as well as dogs as old as 16. I truly enjoy spending time with them and just making sure they are happiest they can be I am available for pet care on all days of the week and can work around my schedule for what best fits. I have flexibility I will ensure if there are enclosed areas that they are closed so make sure no runaways. I will also make sure that they are properly enriched with toys and treats.
“Chenyang is excellent with our dog! She stays tuned into him, matching his pace and helping him enjoy his walks despite his health challenges. We rest easy knowing our pup is in good hands!”
About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life, growing up helping care for my mom’s dogs and friends’ pups in the pandemic. I’m also an experienced side-groomer with my own dog, so I’m attentive to behavior, hygiene, routines, and individual needs. Your pup will get patient, reliable, loving care. I work part-time, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability, including early mornings and weekends. I’m happy to discuss what works best for you and can commute by public transportation or bike. I have a dog of my own, so please let me know upfront if you’d prefer our pets not to meet—we’ll respect your boundaries. I’m currently offering care in your home, not boarding at mine, though that may change in the future. I am open to traveling to anywhere in the SF area and as south as Pacifica, Burlingame/San Mateo area.

Cheryl was awesome and I highly recommend her! She walked our two pups Hiro (Shiba Inu) and Tucson (Mini Australian Shepherd) for a week straight while we went on vacation and she was great. Even though we had a very reactive Mini Australian Shepherd she was still able to handle him with care. It was a last minute request too and she came through for us. Our dogs loved walking with her and we will continue to use her services. I highly recommend her very professional and communicates well. We felt our pups were in good hands. Thank you Cheryl!
Marisela was wonderful! I was in town for a month for work and she was so helpful walking my dog regularly while I was in the office. She was very flexible and responsive, and I could tell she put a lot of care in what she does. My dog loved the walks and I really appreciated the frequent pictures and updates! I would highly recommend booking her for your needs.
Ivan stepped in to help walk our two large to giant sized dogs shortly after my husband had surgery, sometimes supporting after last minute notice. Ivan is a good communicator. He smoothly navigated our dogs’ different personalities and walking styles (and a talkative neighbor). Ivan was also conscious of how the recent heat wave may affect our dogs’ safety and offered potential solutions. Thank you, Ivan!
Rylan is an amazing dog walker who goes the extra mile to make sure your pet is happy. I appreciated that Rylan took extra time to make my dog feel comfortable during meet and greet. He also gave her a belly rub, played fetch and spent time with her after her walk. Rylan was incredibly kind, reliable and an excellent communicator. He informed me when he was on his way and he responded instantly to messages. I highly recommend his services if your pet needs care when you can't be there!

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 Pacifica. 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.

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.
