About: Hi there! I’m Logan and I thank you for giving my profile a look! My family has had dogs in our house since 2009, so I’ve taken care of multiple dogs in my life. I love any breed and size! I can’t work with cats as much family has a history of cat allergies. I can’t wait to meet you and your dog(s) wagging tail(s) My mom used to work at a school and asked me to take care of our two dogs for the day while she was gone. I made sure they had food, water, went to the restroom and had lots of fun! I treat all the dogs we have like they’re my child. I take care of them to make sure they live long happy lives! It’s nice to cuddle with them.

About: I’m proud to say I love pets more than people! 🐾 I’m currently the very proud owner of a double foster fail, so I truly believe every pet deserves all the love, attention, and belly rubs they can get. As a fire wife looking to get out of the house and make some new furry friends, I’d love nothing more than to spend my time loving on your pets while you’re away. Your pets aren’t just animals—they’re family, and I’ll treat them that way! My 6 year old mutt Rupert is my best friend. Daily life with him looks like plenty of walks, fetch, and cuddles - specifically under a blanket. My schedule is a bit irregular. My husband is a firefighter. He works almost every other day, so I’m looking to pick up shifts when he is home. I have his schedule for the entire year so I know my complete availability! Friends have trusted me to make custom meals for their pets - coconut oil, ground turkey, canned pumpkin, etc. They have trusted me to take and pick up from vet visits, administer flea medicine, and assist in grooming. Most of my visits are dropping in and feeding/ playing. I like to think I know when or how much the dog wants to play, puzzle stimulation, or relax. It’s extremely important for the pet to trust me and feel comfortable.
About: I've taken care of family pets for more than twelve years and had owned two chihuahuas. I can bath, walk, and play with them and keep them company. I am a travel medical assistant with open availability due to it being a slow season. I like to walk to farmers markets on Saturdays. If you have a fencing yard or crate, I can let them out for walks and for play. If you need help bathing or administering any medication, I'd be more than happy to help you.

About: Hi my name is Destiny. I am an animal lover. All sizes, breeds and species. I’ve been dog/house sitting for a little over 3 years but throughout my entire life, I’ve had pets of all kind. I’ll leave it up to you to decide what sets me apart from other sitters. I’m happy to help and I can’t wait to get to know you and your babies. I’m currently unemployed so I have plenty of time to commit and dedicate my time to do something I’m extremely passionate in, helping animals and others. My whole purpose of being a dog walker is to ensure safety for your animals and making the owners feel comfortable. I take much pride in being able to adapt to specific needs so feel free to throw whatever needs you have at me so I can earn your trust.
About: I have been rescuing dogs since my grad school and taking care of them. I bathe, feed, walk them and even taken them camping. Currently one of mine is oldie and I have to give him medicine and I know how to do so. He also requires patient slow walks but I enjoy them too. I am retired now so I have plenty of time to take care of your pup and walk him. I have four rescues of my own. I can walk your dog and visit him at your home. I can feed him and take care of water during these hot days. I like long walks so if the pup likes walks we can both enjoy them. I can handle two well behave doggies at a time even larger size as I walk mine in pairs. I can play with him or take him to doggie park if he is dog friendly. I have four rescues of my own so boarding is not possible.
“Aj was so great with my dog Archie! Aj was attentive to Archie’s needs, so kind to him, and Archie immediately loved him. We will definitely use Aj again!”

“Madeline saved the day again! She’s professional, passionate and considerate. Apppa loves her. Highly recommend her to everyone with a fur baby in the Monterey area”

“Sarah was the best! She walked our dog, Bella, for a few weeks. Bella can be tough to walk, and Sarah made it look easy. Bella absolutely loved her and waiting for her by the window each day. Will definitely book Sarah again!”

“They were awesome. My dog had a blast. She came home very well walked and very happy. I appreciated the promptness in which they responded to my request for services. Will definitely look into using them in the future”

“Jessica is amazing and took great care of my dog. I really appreciate the photos and updates, as well as Jessica’s professionalism and kindness. Thank you, Jessica!!”

“Nadya helped us with a last minute request and took Peanut out for a potty trip early morning. She responded very fast and kept us updated about the walk. We really appreciate her help.”

About: Growing up, my family and I have had 4 wonderful, healthy dogs! My family (parents specifically) have extensive experience in breeding as they are certified breeders. We are huge animal lovers and have always been passionate about giving the best life for our furry friends! I am currently working as a server, therefore I do occasionally work late nights (latest 10:00pm). With that, I am still always available to come before and after work as needed. When I take care of a pet in their home, my focus is on creating a seamless experience for both the pet and their owner. I follow the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, and any specific care instructions. I make sure to spend quality time with them, whether that’s playing, going on walks, or simply giving them attention and affection. I also keep the home clean and organized, ensuring food and water areas are tidy and that any messes are promptly cleaned up. Communication is important to me, so I send regular updates and photos to the owner to keep them at ease while they’re away. My goal is to make the pet feel secure and cared for, and the owner confident that their furry family member is in great hands.
About: Animals have been part of my life since I was little — I grew up with six dogs and started caring for them on my own around age 10. It was never a chore. I genuinely loved it. Since then I’ve looked after pets for friends, family, and neighbors, and that same feeling has never gone away. I do drop-in visits, walks, and boarding. Your pet is welcome to stay in my home, where they’ll be treated like family — not just watched over, but truly loved. I give a lot of affection and I make sure every animal feels safe, seen, and cared for. I’m trained in pet first aid and CPR, can handle oral and injected medications, and have experience with senior animals and pets with special needs. Whatever your pet needs, I’ll show up for them. I know leaving your pet with someone new can feel hard. I just want you to feel at ease — and I want your animal to feel loved while you’re gone. I’m currently studying psychology online, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet real attention. I’m available for boarding on weekdays and weekends, and I offer drop-in visits and walks in the morning or afternoon — any day of the week. Your pet is welcome to stay in my home, where everything is calm, clean, and safe. I can also come to your home if that’s what’s most comfortable for your pet. Either way, I’m respectful of their routine and give them plenty of love and attention throughout the day. I always clean up after myself and make sure your animal feels at ease the whole time you’re away.

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 September 2026, there are 10,342 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Poway. 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 Poway. 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 Poway.

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 Poway. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
