I love to give them belly rub. I spend most of my weekend at home so I have time to take care pet during the weekend. I like to take pet wherever I go, otherwise I feel bad for leave them at home for a long time. I live in a two story townhouse with 2 bedrooms, offering plenty of space for small dogs to comfortably move around and go up and down the stairs.

I am overly communicative and extremely cautious with your animals! Lots of pics and updates included! I would love to help you with yours! I am currently very flexible and would love to gain long term clients with regularly scheduled daily walks and then move to overnight visits once trust is established and I get to know your animal more! I would not be able to take any pets into my own home. I am happy to walk even your run pups or do mid day check ins for cats or more!

“Emily was great! I booked her day-of on a holiday weekend in a bind and she was super fast to respond, asked clarifying questions to make sure things went smoothly, and then sent lots of pics and reported back on how things went. She even stayed over a few minutes to make sure our dog went potty which was much appreciated. We will definitely use her again for dog walking!”

About: Hi there! I have taken care of 5+ different families pets that include dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, etc! I love taking care of dogs & cats especially and have experience in pets of all ages. I also have experience in emergency situations with elderly pets, that called for immediate vet attention, puppy emergencies of all sorts, and even reactive pets. I develop a deep care for animals and prioritize learning each and every pets personality and needs. My professional work consists of freelance work, so in between I love to surround myself with animals and nature. A lot of the time my freelance work is done from my computer. To balance that out, I frequently go out into nature as part of my routine when time allows so for those who have pets who need outdoor time, I'm a great fit for you! As long as I have my cup of joe, and my laptop I'm a pretty easy going person! My approach to taking care and building a trusting relationship with your pet would focus on prioritizing their needs by learning their personalities. Some pets who have separation anxiety require a lot of affection, some who are high energy require a bit more exercise, and some who need mental stimulation just need exposure to different smells or visual stimulation! It just depends on what your pet needs.
“Agne is wonderful! I was able to enjoy my trip without worries knowing that my dog was in such good hands. In every photo, it was clear that my dog was having a great time 💕 best sitter ever!”
“Mia did a great job walking our energetic boy Luka and always made sure he had water after their walks. He was always excited to see her. Mia left plenty of info on the report card and would send separate messages with more detail of Lukas walk which was always very helpful. Communication was always great and we would definitely book again in the future.”
About: I’ve been trusted by my family, friends, and friend of friends to care for their dogs and cats over the years. I love being able to bond with the animals I’m caring for.

I make sure all of their needs are met and try to keep them comfortable.
About: Need someone you can trust to care for your furry family while you're away? I'm a lifelong animal lover and proud cat mom to Aster Blue, my sweet 11-year-old boy who loves other animals, too! I offer attentive, loving pet care, whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, or keeping your pets comfortable in their own home. I understand that every animal has their own personality and needs, and I'll treat your furry family with the same patience, affection, and care I give my own. Available seven days a week and around for holiday pet sitting. I'd love to meet your four-legged family! I currently work part-time, locally, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups!

About: Hi! I’m originally from Ukraine, where I studied veterinary medicine for five years and gained hands-on experience working with animals. I’ve also been a professional groomer for over six years. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve been helping homeless and rescued animals since I was 13, so I have many years of experience with dogs, cats, and other small animals with different personalities, ages, and needs. I’m very comfortable handling pets and always focus on making them feel safe, calm, and comfortable in my care. In addition to pet sitting, I can help with bathing, brushing, nail trimming, ear cleaning, and other basic grooming needs. I’m also comfortable caring for pets with special needs and administering oral medications or injections when necessary. I treat every pet as an individual and always follow their normal routine and their owner’s instructions as closely as possible. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, loved, and at home while they’re with me. I currently work from home, so I’m able to spend a lot of time with the pets in my care and keep a close eye on them throughout the day. I can provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s usual daily routine as closely as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I have experience working with dogs of different sizes, ages, personalities, and temperaments. At home, I can provide a separate quiet room if your pet needs their own space, and you’re welcome to bring a crate, bed, or playpen if that helps them feel more comfortable. I always follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and interactions with other pets.
“Kateryna has been an amazing walker! Our feisty girl Eve loves her and really listens to her. Not only does she come back from walks fulfilled and tired I have also noticed a difference in her overall listening and leash training. 10/10!”
About: I understand that our pets are our family, so I always aim to care for them with the same empathy and patience that you do. I dedicated my career to becoming an experienced animal welfare professional because I love animals so much! I started working in veterinary settings, then handled rescue intakes and studied dog training. This background gave me the unique ability to truly understand cat and dog body language, ensuring they always feel secure and understood. Whether its managing large dog playgroups or administering basic medical care, I am highly experienced and comfortable with all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’m also happy to assist with any other unique pets in your household! I have experience working with exotics in vet clinics but I love all creatures and am happy to care for any non-traditional pets. I look forward to giving your animals a fun, loving, and mentally stimulating routine (: My current work schedule will allow me to be available mornings and early afternoons every Monday through Friday. Generally, anywhere from 7 am - 1 pm. I grew up with animals my whole life and often helped take care of them. Their happiness and love means the world to me, so I always make sure they’re fulfilled. Spending quality time together is important, I love cuddling or just hanging out with them whenever and wherever. I will follow their feeding schedule and always stay alert to make sure I’m there if they need me, so you can rest assured that your beloved babies will be treated well when you’re away.
About: I strive to provide a welcoming, enriching home away from home for your dog. To ensure the best care possible, I only accept up to 2 dogs at a time. You can expect regular updates throughout your pup’s stay. Safety is a top priority. I check my yard regularly for potential hazards and do paw checks for foxtails after every walk. I have a large fenced yard with plenty of space for zoomies. Dogs can explore the garden, sunbathe on the grass, or lounge under the shaded pergola. Pets are welcome on the couch, and I also have extra dog beds and an indoor dog house for pups who prefer a little more personal space. My experience: I have a 6yo maltipoo named Chewy and 14yo shihtzu named Joey. They are very respectful of other dogs’ personal space. I trained Chewy using positive reinforcement and taught him many tricks and commands. I have been caring for dogs of all sizes and ages since I was 15. My senior dog experience includes fostering one who was adopted into her forever home and providing long-term care for two others. I’m very comfortable administering medication, preparing special diets, and grooming. Rover is a side hobby, and I ask for a little advance notice so I can prepare for my doggie guest. I follow the schedule provided by the paw-parents. If none is given then it’s usually a morning potty break, breakfast, walk, mid day potty break, dinner, and potty before bedtime. Playtime is sprinkled throughout the day or I may incorporate it with their meal time like food in a puzzle toy. I tailor care to each dog’s needs. Every day includes physical exercise or mental stimulation such as daily walks, fetch, tug-of-war, command training, puzzle toys. Let me know how your preferences during the Meet & Greet so I can match your dog’s routine.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Pleasant Hill
Agne was wonderful with my dog! I had a malfunction with my door that normally lets my dog out, and she was able to meet my dog the day of Ann taking him for a walk later that evening, which I really appreciate appreciated! She was timely, friendly, and very good with my dog! Would definitely recommend her as a dog walker and I love the fact that she lives so close by!!
Stephanie is awesome! My big lab is pretty anxious and excitable around new people and she warmed right up to Stephanie. She is super calm, confident, and obviously an experienced dog handler, and I felt great about sending my big fur baby off with her for an adventure. Will definitely be hiring her again for dog walks!
We have had wonderful experiences working with Kelly. Our dog hasn’t had much exposure to new people and can be a bit nervous around strangers, but she was incredibly patient, kind, and understanding. She took the time to help our dog feel comfortable, and we were so impressed with how quickly trust developed. She was also extremely communicative, keeping us updated and answering any questions we had, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. In addition, Kelly has been very flexible and willing to help us coordinate dog sitting coverage during an important time for our family. Her reliability, professionalism, and genuine care for our dog has truly stood out. We are so grateful for her help and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate dog walker or pet sitter!

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 Pleasant Hill. 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.

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.

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.
