“Amanda has been walking my rambunctious little ShiChiPoo, Max, for the past five months, and I couldn’t be happier. She’s kind, reliable, and incredibly patient—even when Max is full of energy! He gets so excited to see her, and her updates after each walk are thoughtful and reassuring. It’s such a relief knowing Max is in such caring, capable hands. Highly recommend Amanda to anyone looking for a truly wonderful dog walker!”
About: We currently have a puppy, an adult Aussie, 3 cats, a bearded dragon, and 2 human children. I have experience training puppies and giving medications. I've had pets ever since I was a kid, including dogs, cats, fish, turtles, a snake and a lizard. I've walked many dogs for friends, family and neighbors, and watched many cats as well. I'm currently working part time from home so have plenty of time in my schedule to fit in walks and home visits. Let me know your needs. I will follow your instructions regarding your fur baby, just let me know your needs and expectations. Clear communication is the best way to work together!
“My poor dog was sick the day Brit came to walk him. She handled the mess like a professional and still got him out in the neighborhood to do his business. I definitely appreciate the lengths she went to caring for him and would feel confident about booking her for a longer stay.”
About: I’ve always had pets throughout my childhood and as of recently I’ve took on the responsibility of being a foster mom to an American bully named Kobe. His mom is overseas for the next couple of years and was unable to take her pup. So me and my family are watching him until his mama comes back. I have a big heart and pups love me. My schedule is very flexible Monday - Sunday until late June. Starting in July, my availability will be before 8am and after 5pm (Monday - Friday) & anytime on Saturday/Sunday. I do not mind last minute bookings 🙂 I have a huge yard with a wooden fence that’s 6ft tall. There is more sand than grass. The gates stay locked throughout the day. At a client’s residence, I will respect you and your property & make sure that your pets are happy and taken care of.
About: I have taken care of dogs (family, friends, coworkers, personal) for over 10 years. My lab-mix Cooper is extremely well behaved and loves making new friends! I am working part-time from home so I have ample time on the weekends and evenings to care. Also have opportunity for walks early in the morning, if needed. I have a large fenced in backyard, doggie door for easy access to outside and have a love for dogs. I will treat every visitor like my own.
“Danielle is AMAZING! My husband and I are taking a cruise next month and decided to try Rover. I found Danielle and saw she had multiple repeat clients and some pretty great reviews. We set a Meet and Greet, so she could meet our pup and discuss the services. She was super prompt, answered all our questions, and was great with Bosco. We ended up scheduling some walks so our pup would be more comfortable...by the second walk, Bos was super excited to see her. Danielle is very sweet, knowledgeable, caring and so far is the perfect fit for our needs. If you are looking for someone to treat your pet as his/her own, Danielle is it!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ridgecrest
Teressa is wonderful, going above and better to make sure my timid/scared dog is comfortable. I could not have been luckier to find such a loving and patient person to help me with my boy. I use T weekly a some additional visits here and there. She is phenomenal….. will absolutely use her regularly and recommend her.
This is our second time having Minda as our Rover sitter for our Frenchie Oscar. We were in a pinch with last minute travel and she was able to accommodate. She is again very reliable, responsible and trustworthy and looks after our home as well. We were happy to hear and get pics of a new means of play she brought (ball with stick) to play fetch with Oscar which he loved. It's nice to feel relaxed when you are away and would book Minda again for the next time we plan to travel.

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 Ridgecrest. 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 Ridgecrest.

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 Ridgecrest. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
