“Kyle was a great dog walker for Pepper! He came over the evening before to do a meet and greet, which was so helpful and reassuring. He was friendly and communicative, punctual, and sent us an update and photo before dropping her off safely at home. Would love to have him walk her again!”

“Chris was great with our bigger pups. They were very comfortable with him as a new walker. He was able to easily handle them together, even when our younger dog got excited to see another dog walking by. I would recommend Chris to my friends who need a walker.”

“Erin was great walking our two dogs at the same time. They both needed some exercise so our house could be a little more peaceful with the family at the beach! Erin was great! She was always on time, professional and easy to get along with! Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been dog walking for about 5 years now and occasionally my friends’ parents ask me to pet sit for them when they go on vacation. One of my friends has 3 cats and 2 big dogs and I’ve been able to care for all of them without any problems. My friends’ parents always trust me taking care of their pets because I’m reliable and they know that on top of everything I have to do (like feeding, walking, and cleaning up after them), I always give them a lot of love and attention as well. I’m a full time college student. I’m also an acting major which means I film or have rehearsals on some weekends. I do only have classes on Monday through Friday for about 2 or 5 hours depending on the day. This allows me to be able to take care of or walk dogs between or after my classes or on some weekends. When taking care of pets I’m usually left with a list of instructions and I always make sure to follow that list closely and thoroughly.

In the past I have watched and walked all sorts of dog breeds, ranging from small to large and am very comfortable with it. Please let me know if you are interested. Thank you!

About: I am an educator and musician who loves animals and enjoys spending time outdoors. I’ve been taking care of animals since I was a child. As an animal lover and cat owner myself, I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Whether it’s a dog walk, a drop-in visit, feeding, playtime, or simply providing companionship while you’re away, I take pride in treating every pet with kindness, patience, and attention. I understand that pets are cherished members of the family, and I strive to provide the same level of care and affection that I would want for my own pet. My professional background has taught me the importance of reliability, genuine care, communication, and attention to detail—qualities I bring to every pet care visit. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work part-time, which gives me the flexibility to arrange my schedule around my clients’ needs and provide dependable care for their pets. The safety and well-being of your pets is always my top priority. I treat every dog and cat as if they were my own and take care to follow each pet’s routine, instructions, and personality needs closely. During dog walks, I use secure leash handling at all times and remain alert to surroundings, other animals, and potential hazards. I avoid unsafe interactions with unfamiliar dogs and always prioritize calm, controlled, and positive experiences for your pet. For cat sitting and drop-in visits, I ensure doors and windows are securely closed, litter boxes are cleaned properly, food and water are refreshed, and your cat is comfortable and stress-free. I also take time to provide companionship and gentle interaction based on each cat’s comfort level. I am reliable, punctual, and communicative, and I provide updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. In case of any emergency, I will contact you immediately and follow any instructions you provide, including reaching out to your preferred veterinarian if needed. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, cared for, and genuinely looked after while you are away.
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of Hunter. You did a truly wonderful job with both his morning and evening walks. I do not trust just anyone with him, so that means a lot to me. It was clear that the walks went really well, and I think this was exactly the kind of day Hunter could have wished for as an Alaskan Husky: attention, great time outside, and genuine care. I really appreciate it. Thank you again.”

About: I have been caring for dogs my entire life — it’s not just something I do, it’s who I am. I currently have two boys of my own: Basil, a French Bulldog, and Cashew, a Morkie. I also regularly care for a German Shepherd, a Chihuahua, and several other breeds, so I’m very comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments.

I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule that fits pet care naturally into my day. I’m available for dog walks in the evenings and for boarding or sitting on weekends.

At my home, I have a dedicated fenced-off area just for dogs, so they have a secure space to move around freely. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I do a full walkthrough to make sure all doors, gates, and exits are secured before letting any pup roam. I stay hyper-aware and attentive at all times — your pet won’t just be watched, they’ll be genuinely looked after.

About: I've grown up taking care of dogs. I know how to feed them, play with them, get to know them, walk them, and comfort them. Every dog I've met has loved my company and enjoys playing with me. I have a 4 1/2 year old Chihuahua Terrior that we've all been taking care of since was 8 weeks old. I socialize my puppy Scooby-Doo everyday and he goes everywhere with me. I can't imagine life without dogs, they mean the world to me. During one of my visits, I would play with your dog and have them feel safe in my company. Also, I would take your dog on potty breaks every couple of hours. My walks won't be too tedious but they'll be enduring. I'll only feed them the appropriate foods and treats I'm given and told to feed them. I'm extremely friendly, and I'm not afraid of barking.

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 Rancho Palos Verdes. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 Rancho Palos Verdes. 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.
