“Natalie was wonderful with Brady. She responded quickly to my request, communicated clearly, and made me feel comfortable right away. She even asked thoughtful questions I might not have considered. ensuring Brady’s needs were fully met. She handled everything smoothly and professionally. I felt at ease leaving him in her care, and I’d happily book her again.”
“Sarah and Karl are wonderful to work with! They’re reliable, communicative, and always send updates and photos from each walk. My dog can be a little anxious around new people but they were so patient and understanding from the start. Now, she looks forward to her walks with them. It’s clear she feels safe and happy in their care. Highly recommend!”
“Jasmine was great with my 85 pound reactive dog! She took her time with him and made sure he and I were comfortable throughout her walks. Always communicating and giving great comments after his walk. What a trooper!”
“My baby Maggie just returned from her walk with Megan so happy!!! Megan clearly read the profile and followed our advice. We are very protective of our pet and so happy that we tried Megan. Fantastic!!”
“Shanice took my 5 year old Cavapoo for her first Rover walk today and she was great. Thank you! Can’t wait to use Shanice again and would definitely recommend her to any other locals!”
“Griffin and Tuck bonded so well - which isn’t always the case for Tuck (he’s always friendly, but gets anxious leaving me), so I was immediately impressed! When tuck got back to me, he was elated, but tired. Griffin played a ton of fetch with Tuck, too, something I specially requested because it’s Tuck’s favorite thing! My dog is happy, a healthy level of tired, and satisfied :) excited to have Tuck and Griffin play together again!!”
“Very professional . Josh made me feel very comfortable with handing him my 95 pounds malamute. I felt he had true experience with dogs. He has the zen- calm - confident demeanor that pack type dogs like huskies malamutes etc ... need to feel comfortable with their leader. He is punctual, stress-free attitude, communicates clearly and and overall gave a great friendly service. I will be happy to call for him again.”
About: I have 2 dogs: Milo, a 10 year old corgi-dachshund, and Libby, an 8 year old terrier mix. They don’t live with me (they’re at home with my mom) so everyday I miss having them around! I also cared for the sweetest pitbull mix during his senior stage. His name was Brewski and he will forever stay in my heart❤️ I’ve also volunteered for pet outings with the Humane Society where we take a dog out of the shelter on little adventures to help enrich/socialize them. I’ve also fostered puppies and a German-shepherd. 😊 I currently work from home full-time so I will have full flexibility to watch/play with your babies! We can go on walks in the morning, during my lunch hour, and after work. I am available for dog walking, day care, and boarding on weekdays and weekends. I live in a walkable community (next to the beach) where your fur baby and I can go on lots of adventures. We will have plenty of play time and of course, lots of cuddles!
About: I have had dogs my whole life. Right now I have a German Husky mix who is 8 years old and two cats, 6y and 8y. They are my babies, I will care for yours as I would mine. I have always dog sat here and there for friends, once for a family of three boxers. Not working currently, open availability. Will work around schedules. Open to long walks, bonus if my dog can come too, he is very friendly with other dogs. If this is not possible it’s also okay. :) It would definitely be best for me to care for pets in your home. Open to working out any situation, just let me know. Thanks

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 Playa del Rey. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 Playa del Rey.

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 Playa del Rey. On Rover:
- 88% 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.
