Dog Walkers in Redwood Park, CA

“My dog, Shannon, is excitable and leash-reactive, but Sarah wasn't phased. Sarah was punctual and quickly became acquainted with Shannon before heading out for a walk. No issues during the walk. I received a detailed report card and sweet photo afterward. I'd feel confident hiring Sarah again.”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine one-on-one attention I give each pet, making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. I have been around dogs for most of my life and have been caring for them for about six years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me with their pets, and I genuinely love getting to know each dog's unique personality. Whether a dog is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace and lots of cuddles, I enjoy making them feel comfortable and cared for. I especially enjoy spending time with senior dogs and understand the extra patience and attention they sometimes need. I am currently a college student, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, and spending quality time with your pets throughout the week and most weekends.

About: I’ve been a compassionate counselor/ caretaker for human children, and am taking a break to get back into caring for animal children instead! I have taken care of friends/ neighbors cats and dogs for around 4 years, but never through Rover. I am hoping to increase my work via this platform! I recently moved to the area, therefore I have a very flexible schedule and can meet the needs of your animal with whatever schedule works best for you. I am open to staying where you and your animal live if needed! I am flexible to either take your pet to my home or to stay near/ at your current residence.

About: My Pet Care Experience Growing up, I had the joy of sharing my life with a variety of pets, each teaching me something unique about responsibility, empathy, and companionship. Over the years, I’ve cared for hamsters, cats, dogs, fish, bunnies, and turtles, and every one of them left a lasting impact on me. As a child, my hamsters taught me patience and attentiveness through their delicate care needs. Feeding them the right diet and cleaning their habitat were my first lessons in responsibility. With dogs and cats, I learned the importance of building trust and providing unconditional love. They showed me how meaningful the bond between humans and animals can be. Bunnies and turtles required different forms of care, from maintaining specific diets to creating environments that matched their natural habitats. These experiences taught me how to adapt and tailor my care to meet the needs of each pet. Even caring for fish required a level of diligence, as maintaining a clean tank and balanced water conditions was essential for their well-being. Now, as an adult, I deeply appreciate how much these experiences shaped my understanding of what it means to care for animals. Pets aren’t just companions; they’re beings that rely on us for their health, happiness, and safety. This realization drives my dedication to providing the best care possible for my current and future pets. Whether it’s ensuring they receive proper nutrition, regular vet check-ups, or just spending quality time with them, I believe that having pets is both a privilege and a commitment. Caring for animals has not only made me more responsible but has also brought immense joy and fulfillment into my life. Pet care is an important part of my daily and weekly routine, and I always make time to ensure pets are happy and healthy. Currently, as a student on vacation, I have plenty of free time during the holidays to dedicate to their care, including playing with them, grooming, and keeping their spaces clean. During the semester, I usually have classes in the mornings, but my afternoons and evenings are free. This gives me a flexible schedule to provide attention, exercise, and care for the pets. I enjoy creating a balance between my responsibilities and spending quality time with them, as I believe this is key to building a strong bond and keeping them content. I am very responsible when it comes to caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s home. I always prioritize building trust with the pet, creating a bond that ensures they feel safe and comfortable with me. The place where I live is fenced and quiet, making it a safe environment for pets. However, I understand that pets often feel more comfortable staying in their own home, surrounded by familiar smells and routines. For this reason, I am more than happy to care for them at their place if that’s preferred. Regardless of the location, I make sure to follow their specific routines, provide plenty of playtime and attention, and ensure their needs are met with love and care.

“Josh was amazing. He took great care of both my dogs. His communication was great and I felt really safe leaving both dogs in his care. I will absolutely be booking with him in the future.”

About: From childhood to present, I’ve had dogs at home, as well as living near a dog park at my local elementary school, so being near puppies and bigger, older dogs alike is nothing new.

Whether you’ve got a small, large, young, or older dog, I would be happy to ensure they continue to thrive in my care!

“Esmeralda is wonderful with our golden retriever! She is calm, attentive, and engaging, gets in sync with his personality, and lets him enjoy being outside for an adventure, read the daily doggie news or just hang out listening to music. She is a professional when it comes to her canine care so we are confident when we leave our pup with her. Thank you Esmi!! 😁”

“Sandy was great! I had an unexpected neck/back strain and she was able to walk Charlie on very short notice for a few days. It was the first time for Charlie to go on a walk with a stranger and I was surprised to see how with only a little encouragement he followed Sandy without issues. Sandy was always right on time, kept perfect communication, and took pics of Charlie during the walk. Charlie was happy to make a new friend and liked Sandy from the first day. I will be booking more walks with Sandy when I need some extra help.”

About: I started by taking care of my moms 4 dogs when she would go on vacations and needed a dog sitter. That really taught me how to feed them efficiently and when to take them outside to go potty. From there I learned how to hang out with them and play with them efficiently. I am a college student with classes Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday I am available for the entire day and night. On Wednesday and Friday I'm available at night, Monday I'm not because I have a night class. Staying over night is not a problem, along with check ins during the days even on school days. I love dogs and am really good at feeding them, taking them outside, and playing with them. I'm not a trainer, but someone who is good at taking care of them while you are away. My mom has 4 small dogs so I'm very familiar with smaller dogs, but I have also watched bigger dogs as well.

“Margot is amazing, she is a great communicator and does great with my dogs. Always on time, really cares to make sure they get a great walk in and get their food, and let’s me know if anything is amiss! Really appreciate her :)”

About: What sets me apart as a pet caretaker is the genuine attention and patience I give every pet I care for. I have hands-on experience caring for dachshunds, and much bigger dogs, including both a senior dog and a younger dog, so I understand that every pet has different needs depending on their age and personality. I am a student at UC Santa Cruz, but will be home for the summer working a part time job, ready whenever to take care of your pet. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets in a client’s home. I always make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and kept in a clean, calm, and secure environment. I have experience administering medication carefully and following specific care instructions to make sure each pet stays healthy and comfortable. I’m also familiar with crate training and maintaining consistent routines that help pets feel safe and reduce stress. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior, needs, and comfort level so owners can feel confident their pets are being cared for in my care.
