“I'm a type A worry wart when it comes to my furry family members. I am so very thankful that Kayla was able to help us navigate a last minute request to look in on my dog and cat. Kayla was super sweet with both our dog and cat (our dog was super sad to have them only for visits!) and we are so thankful for their help!”
About: I am a lifetime animal lover, pet owner and pet shelter volunteer. I have a lot of experience with pets with behavior problems and/or reactivity. My best self comes out around pets. I already love yours. I am a 'stay-at-home' mom so all my tasks are flexible. I am available for dog walking and cat/dog/other check-ins. I have a fenced yard but will not be doing Rover dog visits at my home. If requested, I would love to take your dog on field trips like the park, beach or a hike
“5 Stars!!! Cameron made my vacation worry free by taking care for my German Shephard for 4 weeks. Cameron absolutely the Best. We will book Cameron again and will recommend to our friends. His service greatly appreciated.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals - specifically cats and dogs - who were injured and/or abandoned out by the pound. It can be hard to ask for help with your pet! They’re your family! But I love them like they’re mine, too. Nothing made me happier growing up than sending needy animals to their happy, safe, forever homes. Writing is what I’d love to consider my day job, but it only really made the bulk of my income one year. That’s the year my taxes say I’m a writer! So I have a lot of time between chapters. I love getting to speak with the client first and ask them what areas the pet’s things are most commonly in. I like to stick to only the locations I’ve been told are of use/need to me and I always try and leave some treats behind for a deserving furry friend (and they’re all deserving)!
“I had a great experience working with Darian. He walked my pooch for a full week while I was busy in meetings and couldn't walk him myself like we normally do. My buddy boy was happy and tired after a good strenuous walk (which he needs and loves!) and Darian even set his food dish down for me after the walk so he could have his breakfast. Thank you Darian, looking forward to the next time!”
“Travis is wonderful - he kindly met me before regular walks started so that I felt comfortable giving him keys & he could meet my dog Charlie. He has been super reliable, takes photos & gives excellent, thorough updates. It’s wonderful to know Charlie is in such good hands. Thank you Travis!”
About: Hey there! I’ve sat for cats, dogs, fish and I’m open to sitting for more types of animals. I worked and volunteered at the Oakland Zoo for 8 years. I love nature and animals! Both your home and furry friend will be treated with care and respect. I love all animals and treat them as if they were my own best friends. I walk, feed, play, give pets, hugs, and lots of attention! I’ll communicate with you and send lots of photos. You can trust your pup is in safe and caring hands with me. 🐾 I’m a part-time pet sitter so feel free to reach out! I work from home during the week. My full time and attention is dedicated to your animal. Safety and trust are important to me. I am dependable and good at communicating. I will keep you updated from when I arrive and I’ll let you know how your pet did during the visit.
About: I’ve always loved animals, and I’ve had cats and dogs throughout my life (wishing I could have all the animals!). When I was younger, I would cuddle up with my pets and even read to them. Back in high school, I worked at a local grooming salon, where I bathed dogs and cats. Since then, caring for animals has continued to be something I truly enjoy. I’ve been pet sitting for the past 7 years and have loved getting to know not only the pets, but their owners as well. I’ve also trained my own cat to do all kinds of fun tricks! I deeply understand how much our pets mean to us, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I know how important it is to feel comfortable and confident leaving your pets in someone else’s care. I look forward to getting to know you and your pets and giving them all the love, attention, and care they deserve. Starting October 6th 2026 my availability is pretty open. Please take a look at my availability because some days may change or send me a message. My cat has feline herpes and daily I give him oral medication to help calm his outbreak. It's not curable but I try to manage it. I have taken care of pets who need medication 1-3 times a day. I do my best to make pets feel comfortable as much as possible.
About: *MEET & GREET IS REQUIRED FOR FIRST TIME BOOKERS WITH Me* I have been working in the field as a vet assistant for almost 4 years now. I have immensely enjoyed caring for animals, and would love to continue that even outside of work. Both cats and dogs are welcomed; I do have 2 cats of my own. I grew up surrounded by cats, so I would say I have that feline touch. I understand that cats have vastly different personalities and may not want to be touched or played with. But if your cat happens to love playing and being petted, then I will happily meet those needs. I believe that open communication and transparency is important, so you’ll receive regular updates on your pets well-being while you’re away. I am skilled at administering oral medications and even subcutaneous injections, if needed. As well as caring for special needs and or elderly pets. I am trained in understanding body language and how to recognize signs of illness in pets. I am mostly available for walks, drop-ins, and house sittings. I have a part time job, and I am a student, so I will update my calendar regularly to reflect my availability to properly care for your pet. The safety of your pet is important to me and is a task I take very seriously. Your pet is in safe hands with me.

Life is busy with work, errands, and family, so let me take care of your best friend while you accomplish your goals. You can be comfortable knowing that your dog is too. Please reach out to me with the details about your pet so I can provide the exact same kind of care you do. I’d love to set up a meet and greet!

I have done 20+ years of babysitting and childcare in my home and other peoples homes. Plus, I’ve had clients that I have worked for and have trusted me with their keys to their home for seven years.

About: While going to college I walked approximately 10 dogs (individually) per month with occasional 3 dogs at a time. I’m comfortable with all size dogs; Chihuahua to Great Danes. If the dog likes to run, I’m up for that too. I like to be active and I know some dogs need a good run to get out their energy. I’m open to pet care. My house is pet friendly, and has a backyard enclosed with a 6 ft fence, gate that locks and a grassy area. I care for pets as if they were my own. I can give baths, make sure they are fed on time - including medication, and bathroom breaks, and most importantly walks or runs.
About: I’ve had a few animals! They have been my babies I had a German Shepard! Now I have 2 amazing cats! I am a huge animal lover! I am look for a side job right now I do have another job at a retail store! I am looking to make some extra money and do something I enjoy doing! I am always making sure animals are happy and healthy as can be! Make sure they are fed, played with, and walked. Always cleaning up after playing/ eating:)
About: I’ve had a few steady pet sitting/walking jobs in the last few years. I worked as a dog walker for an amazing woman in Malibu for her 5 dogs and walked 5x a week ~3.5 hours a day. I’ve also done many overnight stays in people’s homes for their cats/dogs when they are out for weekend getaways or longer vacations. I have my own dog (Stormy, Chow 2.5 years old) and absolutely love her to death! I’d love to spend time with your pets whether they just want companionship, walks, playtime, or hiking/beach adventures. I’ve had experience with high energy, low energy, various breeds, you name it. Send me a message if you have any questions to see if I would be a good fit for your fur baby. I am a full-time graduate student at Cal Poly but will have free time in between to do some dog walking or drop in visits. Coming into your home I will treat your pets just as I would treat my own, with all the love and care in the world!(: Each individual circumstance depends on the client’s and pet’s needs and will be discussed on a case-by-case basis.
About: I grew up with animals and have always had a special connection with them. I have worked with animals of all walks of life in an animal shelter & truly enjoy getting to witness their success. When working at the animal shelter I used to take dogs on walks and to the play pens where they would socialize with potential new families and other dogs. While they were in the play pens it was my job to ensure things ran smoothly and to deescalate any situations that might arise. Being able to celebrate in an animals victories and see how much they have grown & learned over time is like nothing else! I am wholly committed to anything your pet may need during our time together, no interruptions unless there is an emergency. If you have any questions about availability outside of my specified time frames please feel free to reach out and I will see what I can do! I would never do something to put your animals in harms way, I am incredibly thorough and will follow any specified instructions. If I have any questions about your pets needs I will be sure to seek clarification before taking any actions.
About: I groomed dogs in 2022 & 2023 and developed genuine deep relationships that will last a lifetime. I truly appreciate each pets characteristics & personality. I’ve enjoyed thoroughly the time I’m blessed with in serving the communities furry friends! I’m available full time right now and am interested in short or extended stays I use the gym for an hour, 3 times a week but flexible there. Ready for new jobs to come my way. I’m always trying to insure pet safety 1st. I ensure they are heard and pay particular attention to changes in behaviors as these are tell tell signs of anxiety etc. Walking to bond and encouraging play is always pertinent . Talking in a loving way where they feel loved and ready to respond is vital to building trust.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Pismo Beach
Communication was great! Sarah is friendly and punctual. She was able to juggle my complicated schedule to get my dog out and walking. Also, she would call and let us know five minutes before she was done so we could greet her at the gate. She took some nice pictures during his walks. Highly recommend.
I was extremely impressed with Riley. From the moment she greeted my dog. I knew that she was gonna be a good fit. Our meet and greet let me to believe that she’s outstanding. She asked extremely valuable questions. She’s very well organized. I would highly recommend her for anything pet related.
I couldn’t recommend Shawn enough! He took such great care of my dog, was a great communicator, reliable, and sent updates everyday. I could tell my dog was in great hands and he looked very happy in every video or photo update I received. I would definitely hire Shawn again. Thank you, Shawn!
Met up with Hannah for a meet and greet with my dog and she was great. My husky is a tough guy to walk sometimes if you lack confidence but she took him on and had full control. I’m excited to continue to work with Hannah and for her and my dog to build a relationship. Can’t wait for the next walk!
I'm a type A worry wart when it comes to my furry family members. I am so very thankful that Kayla was able to help us navigate a last minute request to look in on my dog and cat. Kayla was super sweet with both our dog and cat (our dog was super sad to have them only for visits!) and we are so thankful for their help!

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.
