About: I can take on the most hyper of dogs (I have one myself). I understand the high demand of a hyper dog and am ready to walk and play with your furry friend! I can also care for small critters! I work 2p-10p full time as a behavior specialist with individuals with autism. I am available most mornings and am available for overnights after 10pm! I always ensure that my pets have everything they need: lots of love, an extra long walk on sunny days, toys to play with, and food that meets their diets needs.

About: As a lifelong animal lover and pet owner, I understand that pets are family. I have hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels, including daily walks, feeding, playtime, administering basic medications, and providing plenty of love and attention. I have owned a Golden Retriever, yorkie, two Great Danes, and a pitbull. I am comfortable with everything from energetic exercise sessions to gentle care for smaller breeds. I pride myself on being reliable, responsible, and attentive to each pet's unique needs. Whether your dog needs a long walk, a quick potty break, or companionship while you're away, I will treat them with the same care and affection I give my own pets. My goal is to ensure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while giving owners peace of mind. I do work Monday through Friday from 9-1 which is about 15 minutes away from my house, but my hours are very flexible to where I can be home during the day. I have a fenced in yard, I have a pool if your dog is a water lover, lots of treats, I used to have many dogs but as of now I only have a yorkie in the house along with my two younger siblings who grew up with dogs and love dogs and my two parents.
About: I started taking care of dogs since I was 12. I have exp. walking dogs. Cleaning up after them, giving food/water, potty breaks. Cleaning cages. I'm not working right now. Trying to find something. Our house is quiet & laid back. I'm available during the day. Both my dogs are friendly & like to play. I have a 6ft privacy fence in yard. 2 spayed female dogs & 1 cat. They usually just hang out around the house. I let them out when needed & wander the yard.

About: Hi! My name is Toby! I've been active with dog walking and pet sitting ever since I was in the 6th grade. Spending time with animals is one of my favorite things to do! I love giving them the attention they deserve, as well as playing with them, feeding them and nurturing them. Being able to help take care of someone's pet is an amazing fulfillment and honor unlike any other! I have experience working with all different breeds and sizes, as well as special needs and senior pets. With past work experience in doggie daycares and kennels, I'm positive I can give both a professional, positive and exciting experience to you and your pet! I have plenty of time on my hands. I am currently looking for a part time job but at the current moment I am available almost every day. I can fit pet care into my daily routine with ease. I have a pretty large fenced in backyard so the pets can run and play freely and safely. I have a 3 year old dog at the moment who I put in the crate when I go to bed for the night. I try to spend as much time with the pets as possible, I feel as if they need just as much, if not more, attention as humans do
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have experience caring for both small and medium-sized breeds. I’ve successfully potty trained a puppy and have also cared for a senior dog, giving me experience with pets at different stages of life. As a pre-PA student, I am responsible, attentive, and comfortable following detailed care instructions, medication schedules, and feeding routines. I love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply extra cuddles, I will treat them like they’re part of my own family. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I currently have a very flexible schedule throughout the summer. I am available all day on weekdays and am also available on weekends with advance notice. This allows me to provide plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and companionship for your pets. I understand how important it is to have someone dependable caring for your pets, and I am committed to making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and get exercise, and I currently do not have any pets in my home, allowing me to provide your pet with my full attention. I also have a dog park nearby and live in a safe, walkable neighborhood that is perfect for daily walks and outdoor time. I will always follow your pet’s routine and any care instructions you provide to ensure they feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while in my home.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 9,308 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Penn Valley. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Penn Valley. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Penn Valley.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Penn Valley. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
