“"I couldn't be happier with their service. I was nervous about finding the right walker for my kids pup, but they were incredibly patient and gentle. Fantastic service! They are dependable, trustworthy, and go above and beyond to make sure my dog gets plenty of exercise I will be back in the future”
“Ilse did great with Xena. She was attentive to Xena’s reaction to other dogs . She kept her under control and calm. Xena was happy to see Ilse when she came. She was on time and was needed for a week after I had hip surgery. Good job.”
About: I’ve always had a special connection with animals since I was a child. Throughout my life, I’ve cared for rabbits, ducks, chickens, fish, hamsters, dogs, and cats. My beloved Chihuahuas and kitties have since crossed the rainbow bridge, but I truly believe they would want me to continue sharing my love and compassion with other animals. I’m a caring, gentle person who enjoys talking to, playing with, and spending quality time with animals. I understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs, and I look forward to making your fur baby feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I hope to meet you and your furry family member soon! I'm currently retired and I have time for a drop in visits, feedings and exercise for your pets during the week and weekends. My preferable hours would be 10:30am - 8pm. I may might be able to rearrange my schedule if needed. I provide loving, attentive, and personalized care for every pet as if they were my own. Having cared for animals most of my life, I understand that each pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort needs. In my client’s home,
“Jenna is WONDERFUL !! Its been a life saver to have her help with my dog. Instead of me having to rush home to let him out during the day or him being alone while im at work all day , jenna gives him great walks, love, and attention !!! She is always great and I feel very lucky I found her !!! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone!!”
“Marlette was available for a very last second walk with my dog. She kept safety and exploration at the top of list in choosing a walk. Not only does she reply quickly, she shows up on time, has a beautiful kindness she emanates, and my dog loves her! Highly recommend!”
“Thank you so much Adam!! You are simply the best!!! Adam is my go-to every time, and he never disappoints. My dogs love Adam!! I am so happy I found him, and so are my dogs!! Thank you!!!”
About: I have had dogs all my life. And I have a 7year old chocolate Lab named Mocha. I have experience dog seating for friends and family. I have been taking a break from working in a corporate setting and I’m home for all or most part of the week. I will look after your pet, as one of mine. I have a fenced yard, that will allow your pet to run around. I also have a very friendly and energetic chocolate Lab named Mocha. She sure will be very happy to welcome your pet.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life. Puppies, middle age and the seniors. I have experience with all breeds and ages. I’ve worked with many dogs in the past and was lucky enough to have dogs in my house growing up. I already have a set schedule with my dogs. We walk twice a day. They are fed after the first morning walk and fed after the second walk in the evening. And of course playtime all day. I put my dogs first they’re my priority. I have a nice big fenced yard that is very shaded. I live downtown, walking distance to the marina and dog park. I do allow dogs in my bed and on the furniture. But I have lots of dog beds around the house if they that’s what they prefer!
About: Hi, I’m Joe — a lifelong dog lover who treats every pup like my own… right down to the love, the cuddles, and the occasional meatball. I’m home all day, so your dog gets constant attention, companionship, and plenty of affection. My home is relaxed and dog-friendly, with a big, fully fenced yard for safe play, sniffing adventures, and stretching their legs. Inside, pups can lounge wherever they feel comfortable — the couch, their bed, or right next to us. At night, everyone’s welcome in the bedroom, whether they prefer their own spot or decide mine looks more comfortable. (It usually does.) Being home all day means your dog gets frequent potty breaks, a calm routine, and tons of quality time. I send regular photo updates so you can see exactly how well your pup is settling in. Along with boarding, I also offer drop-in visits, in-home sitting, and dog walking, giving you flexible and reliable care options. If you’re looking for someone who will genuinely love, spoil, and treat your dog like family — with all the comfort and maybe a meatball or two — I’d be honored to welcome them. I am home full-time, allowing me to provide constant supervision and care. Pet care seamlessly fits into my routine through regular walks, attention, and companionship. In my home, dogs enjoy a large fenced yard, supervised play, and full comfort—allowed on furniture, loved like family, and welcome to sleep beside us.
About: Hi I'm Bibiana, a reliable attentive pet sitter with a background as a pet portrait artist. I take a calm personalized approach so every pet feels safe, understood and genuinely cared for. My approach to pet sitting is intentional and detail oriented. As an artist I have spent years closely observing animals - their expressions, energy and subtle shifts in behavior. That trained awareness carries directly into how I care for pets: I notice the small things, responding intuitively and create an environment where your pet feels safe, understood and genuinely cared for. I specialize in providing calm, consistent and personalized care tailored to your pets needs-whether that means engaging playtime, relaxed companionship or gentle approach for more sensitive or senior pets. As a complimentary offering, I create custom pet portraits for clients who would like a meaningful keepsake. This is always optional and never part of the care itself - simply an added creative service available if desired. If you are looking for dependable intuitive sitter who will treat your pet with genuine care and respect, I would love to connect. I am a professional multi-media artist and currently have a flexible work schedule. I am available everyday for morning or evening visits and overnight stays. I am available to stay overnight with your furry friends. I have experience with older dogs and cats. I especially enjoy watching kittens and puppies.
“Gerald has been a great dog walker/new buddy for our young almost 2 year old pocket/micro pit "Biggie". Biggie has lots of energy and gets a little wild sometimes but Gerald handles him well. Gerald has been great with keeping us updated with fun pictures and texts of their outings. I would highly recommend Gerald to care for your baby.”
“Emma is such a sweet lady, always on time, very responsible and gave us plenty of updates both photos, videos and texts! Very responsive and easy to talk to. And my dog loved her, she was clearly very excited every morning when it came to the scheduled time we arranged for Emma to pick her Ik and take her in her walk. Dogs don’t lie and my dog was ecstatic to see Emma. We could not have done our trip without her, we’re very grateful and I think we’re going to have to schedule with her more regularly so my dog doesn’t get depressed. If you need someone you can count on to take care of your dog (big or small, my dog is a 65 lbs very active husky), be responsive and always on time - Emma is your person. Book with her before she’s all booked up. It’s not easy finding people you can trust with your pets so I’m truly grateful we found Emma. Thank you!!!!”
“What a wonderful person! I was very worried because my son's dog is unruly and wants to eat other dogs. Kyla had the dog walking along as peaceful as can be. She was truely a blessing.”
About: I have worked at 2 dog facilities, The Meadows Canine Camp in Santa Rosa and I currently work at the Milo Foundation where I walk and adopt out dogs. I currently have a foster named Grayson (boxer) who is good with small dogs. I love animals and I am very qualified to take care of your pet while you are away. Cant wait to meet them! I work at the Milo Foundation in point Richmond Wednesday-Sunday. Your dog would need to be ok for 8hrs alone on those days or if they are small I can take them with me to work. Before and after work would be dedicated time spent with your pet and I am off on Mondays and Tuesdays. While walking, your pets safety is my number one priority and I will make sure to walk in areas deemed appropriate by clients. Having dogs of my own, I understand the importance on keeping them safe when out. I also like to use a harnesses when walking to avoid a dogs collar slipping and possibility of getting loose.
About: I offer calm, personalized care in a quiet home where your dog is treated like family, not one of many in a busy boarding facility or a home with multiple dogs. I typically host one household at a time, so your dog gets my full attention, genuine affection, and all the cuddles they can handle. My home is the right fit for friendly dogs who love companionship, walks, and settling into a peaceful routine. I'm especially drawn to dogs who thrive with one-on-one attention rather than the noise and energy of a busy multi-dog environment. I'm certified in Pet CPR, Healing Touch for Animals, and Reiki. And beyond the credentials, I'm deeply attuned to each dog's personality and energy. That attunement is what helps them settle in quickly and feel genuinely at ease. My connection to animals runs deep. I spent five years volunteering at Lindsay Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, working in both the mammal department and wildlife hospital with injured and recovering animals. That experience sharpened my understanding of animal behavior and reinforced something I already believed: animals feel safety before they understand it. My goal is always to create that feeling from the moment your dog arrives! Because I work from home, pets in my care are rarely left alone for long periods and receive plenty of attention, walks, and companionship throughout the day. When pets stay in my home, they become part of a calm and comfortable daily routine. I primarily host dogs from 1 household at a time so each pet receives plenty of individual attention. Dogs here enjoy daily walks, playtime, and relaxed downtime, and I’m home much of the day since I work from home. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs so they feel safe and settled. For drop-in visits or walks in a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, walks, litter care for cats, playtime, and companionship. I’m happy to send photo updates so owners know their pets are doing well.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Port Costa
Natalie was patient and kind with my somewhat awkward and nervous pups. They took to her right away (thanks, snacks!) and went right out. We are testing the waters to have them walked while someone is home to relive anxiety and she has no problems at all. Natalie is kind and respectful to the nervous mom, too. Thank you!
Once again, Fioa provided excellent care for my dog..I really appreciate her kind ways and willingness to work with my anxious pup. Fiona is responsible and communicates well.I feel very comfortable with her her respect with my home. I will use her services again.
Telena does an amazing job walking our 4-year-old collie with back and hip issues, even in our very hilly neighborhood. She’s very sensitive to signs that he needs to stop and head home, and I know that he enjoys his walks because he gets excited every time her car pulls up. She has a true gift with dogs!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Port Costa on Rover is $16.05 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Port Costa. 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 Port Costa.

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 Port Costa. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
