About: Hi! My name is Mary, and caring for animals is truly part of who I am. With over 15 years of experience, I have developed a deep understanding of pets’ needs, personalities, and routines. I provide a calm, loving, and safe environment where your pet will feel comfortable and cared for, just like at home. I am patient, attentive, and very detail-oriented, always following your instructions carefully to ensure your pet’s well-being. I have experience with both dogs and cats, including administering oral medication when needed. I also enjoy keeping pets active, happy, and emotionally secure. For me, this is more than a job—it’s something I do with love and dedication. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I would love the opportunity to care for your pet and give you peace of mind while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give your pets the time, attention, and care they deserve. I am available on weekdays and weekends, and I can adapt to your pet’s routine to ensure they feel comfortable and well cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment where pets feel secure. I carefully follow all instructions, maintain routines, and ensure your pet is always supervised, safe, and treated with genuine care.
About: I’m a dependable and attentive pet caregiver with experience caring for dogs and cats of different breeds, ages, and temperaments. I’ve handled daily walks, feeding schedules, medication administration, playtime, and overnight care while making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m especially good at adapting to each pet’s personality — whether that means keeping up with high-energy dogs or being patient with anxious or senior pets. My goal is always to give owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in caring and responsible hands. I’m currently a student and have a very flexible schedule and will be happy to accommodate you. Please feel free to reach out to me. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, calm, and pet-friendly environment with lots of supervision, exercise, and interaction throughout the day. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and energy level to make sure they feel secure, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Ayvan has been great with Goldie! She's prompt at responding and picking up Goldie, she's kind, and Goldie is so happy to see her. I really appreciate Ayvan's care for my pup.”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life including large dogs, small dogs, rabbits, ferrets, hamsters, lizards, and cats/kittens. Now as an adult I have 2 hilarious little pugs, who are my whole world. I have experience caring for senior dogs, puppies, and dogs with various health issues that require medication. I am currently a stay at home mom and home all week, so you can trust that your fur baby will never be left alone while you’re away! Due to already having 2 of my own dogs, I will only accept one additional dog at a time (or 2 if from the same family.) because of this, you can rest assured that your dog will not be around other pets that you are not aware of, and I will also be able to devote my time and energy to your fur baby.
About: Hi I'm Nita! Over the last 23 years I've had the pleasure of caring for the pets of loved ones, neighbors, and even my own. I'm experienced in short and long term sitting, walking services, medication management and injections, and of course playtime. Your pet's wellbeing is my priority and you can leave them in capable hands and enjoy peace of mind knowing they're receiving the love, attention, and expert care they deserve. Contact me today and ask any questions regarding availability or care for your furry friend.🐾 I'm currently a freelance worker and work mostly remote meaning that I can be available to pet sit or walk with the flexibility that you're seeking. I am extremely respectfully of others' property and dwellings. I want to create a comfortable environment for your fur babies, which is why I prefer to do onsite pet sitting at the clients' homes.
“Ilona is amazing. Very friendly and takes great care of Munchie on his walks. She also goes the extra mile to help out with anything she can while visiting. I highly recommend her, and I am very happy with her services. 5 out of 5.”
About: I've worked with special needs animals all my life from tri-pawds, deaf, and blind animals to those with dietary restrictions, behavioral issues, anxiety, and sensitivity to stimuli. Currently I am also employed by a farm that has working breads for dogs and barn cats. I work with a changing and flexible schedule and three days off per week, leaving me plenty of time for checking in on your furry friend. My animals have special dietary needs along with special care for allergies and sensitive skin. They receive joint supplements, specially vetted foods, special bathing requirements, and seasonal medications. I'm well versed at the care special needs animals require because of this.
“Gabriela was a great walker for our dog Ted. She sent consistent updates and was extremely friendly not only during the booking process but taking care of our dog. I would recommend her for booking!”
About: I know how important pets are and will make sure you feel at ease while away from your pet! I have been living with animals my entire life, including dogs of all sizes, cats, and bunnies. I currently have a large Akita mix so I am very skilled with walking and handling strong dogs. I also volunteered at a dog rescue for several years where I took care of and walked lots of different types of dogs. I am a huge animal lover and can’t wait to meet your pets! I am a school counselor and am currently off for break the rest of summer so my availability is very flexible! I am currently accepting requests for drop-in visits and dog walking services. I can provide any necessary care for your pets while pet sitting or dog walking. I’ve had many animals throughout my life including senior dogs with certain needs and cats with special health needs.
About: I love animals; always have! I used to come home from school and do homework in front of Animal Planet and when it wasn't doing that I was taking care of my neighbor's pets. They had cats, dogs and horses and I looked forward to it every time. My responsibilities included walking, playing, feeding and even reading to them (which I have on good authority was very adorable). I'm very excited to take care of your fur babies for you now! *Ask me about Active & Running services* **Ask me about Pet Portraiture Add-ons** I am currently taking online classes and looking forward to being with animals when I can part time. I am looking forward to meeting new pets and taking care of them in between bouts of homework and studying. I am available for most services! Including drop-in check-ins, letting dogs out to do their business or go on walks or play with your pets. I'm also available to pet-sit and keep them company while they relax in their space. After meeting your pets and learning their specific and unique needs, likes or dislikes, I am available to feed, walk, play most days.
About: I've had cats and dogs my whole life. I have experience with rescues. I'm an active sitter near hiking trails. Last minute availability is possible. I'm currently working from home part-time making pet care fit easily into my days. If you need daily drop-ins for feeding, walking, running or medications, or ball play, we can set up a custom plan for your fur babies. I treat every pet as if it's my own. If your pet has special needs, we can discuss how best I can make them feel at ease. I'm here to help and open to handling specific needs. I've been there myself with my own babies.
About: I have had dogs my entire life. My daughter and friends rely on me to take care of their fur babies. They know they are loved, cuddled and well taken care of. They are just like part of my family. I am retired and spend time walking several times a day and would love a fur baby friend to hang out with. I lost my fur baby a year ago. I have a large fenced in area and lots of places to play. No pool. I have lots of great walking areas as well as play areas. I allow dogs to sleep with me. If they need to be crated for comfort that is fine too!
About: I've grown up with many MANY dogs and cats, and am as used to caring for them as I am brushing my teeth. Very secure in loving and handling smaller dogs, as having grown up with three boston terriers. However, I have been a dog walker for small, medium, and large puppers. I take about 3 walks a day outside on my own, and could walk with a dog for hours if needed. Not afraid to clean any animal excrements and get my hands dirty ;) I am almost always free! I cannot do night walks (past 6PM), but am still available for house/pet sitting. My weekends are also almost always free. Starting the end of August this might change, but for now I am basically all yours! As someone who used to have a very anxious dog, I am experienced in creating a stress free environment. For example, I can easily notice when a dog becomes stressed, such as hackles and drooling. I am conscious of the importance of leashing, the importance of constant awareness during walks, and the importance of continued affection. Ready to clean up after any animal, feed any pet on a specific schedule, and also clean a home free of fur. Bonus: I love to give dogs a good bath; Cats too if they let me :)
About: I would love to meet and take care of your pup or kitty! I grew up with several dogs and cats in my house and have always been a huge animal advocate. I’ve been helping to take care of them myself for the past 14-17 years, and I have a cat and dog of my own currently. I love hanging out with dogs, taking them on walks or fun adventures, and snuggling with them in the mornings and at night. If you have any special preferences or needs I am more than happy to work with you on those! I can not wait to meet your fur baby! Ask how you can get $20 off your first booking with me! I currently work from home so I’m very flexible on where I need to be to help take care of your pups and kitties! I also am very flexible and love to go on hikes so I can step away and spend a good chunk of time outside with them! I love to cuddle with dogs, so I’m more than happy to give them all of the love they need. I let dogs on my bed and other furniture so if they need to be close by, they are more than welcome. If they like to keep to themselves in their own home, I’m also happy to give them their space!
About: Having grown up with dogs my entire life, caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’m active, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals — especially going on walks, which is something I personally love to do every day. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I treat every dog like family and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to giving each dog personalized attention and lots of love while they’re in my care. My flexible schedule allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. Because I have open availability throughout the week, I’m able to provide consistent walks, playtime, companionship, and attentive care rather than rushing through visits. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs, especially being active and going on walks, so I’m able to give pets the attention, exercise, and care they deserve while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine comfortable and consistent while giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and care. Along with having dogs my entire life, I also have experience with dogs outside of my own, making me comfortable with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels.
About: I grew up with a family dog and have been around dogs my entire life! I have around 8–10 years of hands-on care including walking, feeding, bathing, and spending time with pets! I also volunteer at my local animal sanctuary and regularly do so whenever I am back in my hometown; cats and dogs! I love, love animals and would love to make sure your pets are amazingly taken care of! I usually pet sit every week or so! 😊 I would love to take great care of your pets and treat them like my own! I would want to follow the owner’s procedures and rules regarding their pet in respect to their wishes and usual routine. I also would care for the pets in regards to their feeding times, bathing, walking, and more I will need to do!
“Highly recommended! Lexy took great care of our loved pet. She’s not only patient, but also kind. Received detailed photos and notes for each walk, so as the parents, we know what happened and we feel safe in mind even we are far from our pet. Will definitely ask Lexy for another favor if we needed in the future!”

Caleb was exceptional from booking to taking care of our dog, Sumo! Caleb responds very quickly, which I appreciate. He is very accommodating and kept us updated with our dog throughout the entire time! He played fetch with our dog, and we couldn’t be happier! I will definitely be hiring him again, outstanding job! 👏 Thank you Caleb!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Pico on Rover is $16.05 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 13,334 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Pico. 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 Pico. 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 Pico.

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 Pico. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
