“Maria has been walking our dog for over a month now, and she has been so amazing. She’s flexible with our ever changing work schedule, she always seems to go beyond the paid services, and always gives helpful tips with our dog’s behavior. As long as she’s willing, she’ll continue to be our weekly dog walker and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for her offered services!”

About: My pet care experience includes volunteering at non-profit animal rescue organizations and animal shelters! I have experience in working with pets of all sizes and ages! I am very passionate about animal care and have previously developed a club/organization revolving around pet care and spreading awareness of this community to students! Along with this I have cared for and watched families and friends pets since I was 9 years old. I am a full time college student but I love caring for pets during my free time! I find that pet care fits best into my schedule during early mornings or anytime on Fridays-Sundays! I love caring for pets of all kinds and will do all I can to help make them feel comfortable! I have a lot of experience in pet care and know how to handle different reactions.

About: I genuinely love what I do, and it shows in how I care for every pet I look after. I take the time to get to know each animal's personality — if your dog is high-energy and ready to play the moment I walk in, I'm all for it, and if your cat needs a little space to warm up, I'm happy to let them set the pace. Patience is a big part of how I work; I never rush an animal into feeling comfortable, because building trust is what makes the experience good for both of us. I also believe communication matters just as much as the care itself, so you can expect regular updates and photos while you're away, so you always know your pet is safe, happy, and having a great time. At the end of the day, I treat every pet like they're my own. I'm currently on break from school and working on projects online for the summer, so my schedule is super flexible! I don't have a set daily routine that pet care has to squeeze into — instead, I can build my day around your pet's needs. Whether that means early morning walks, midday check-ins, or being around all day for a nervous pup who needs company, I'm able to make it work. Since I'm home and online most of the time anyway, I'm available pretty much whenever you need me. When I'm caring for pets in your home, I like to keep things as close to their normal routine as possible — same feeding times, same walk schedule, same little habits they're used to, so they feel secure even with their owner away. I always do a walkthrough with you beforehand so I know where everything is (food, leashes, meds, favorite toys) and any specific instructions for your pet. While I'm there, I split my time between giving them attention/playtime and just letting them relax on their own terms, especially if they're more independent. I also treat your home with the same respect I'd want for mine: keeping things tidy, being mindful of noise, and making sure everything is exactly as you left it when you get back.
“Alexus walked our dog while we were away on vacation, which helped us keep up his routine. She was super sweet and kept us updated and sent pictures. She was quick to respond and did an awesome job !!!”

“Payton is really dependable and showed up on time. She sent me updates throughout the day. She made sure my dog was safe and taken care of! I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her.”

About: I have been around dogs my whole life. Growing up I’ve always been an animal person!

About: My name is Jaden and I am 23! I’ve never had a time in my life when I didn’t have a pet, specifically a dog, until now. My heart is still broken from the passing of my dog and I think now would be a great time for me to get on rover as a sitter! I’m great with all animals and will make sure they’re fed, walked, played with, bathed if needed, and have a cozy place to sleep. I have had senior dogs, dogs that require a med schedule and regimen, puppies who have full energy and dogs with other health issues. I promise your animals will be in great hands and a lovely home with a spacious yard (boarding). I can accommodate any special requests, do sleepovers, drop ins or anything else you may need. I am currently in nursing school. I will have clinicals once a semester starting next year, but until then I have more than enough time to pet sit! I am not working outside of Rover and school. I will care for your pets however you request! Every dog I have had has mainly been an indoor dog. We do have a dog door to go outside freely for the bathroom and sunbathing. We also have a pool but it is gated for the safety of my previous pets and your pets! I live in a great neighborhood near a lot of parks for walks as well. I will follow whatever rules you have set for training purposes, diet purposes, and preferences. I always treat animals with love and will give them lots and lots of attention while they’re in my care.
About: I've taken care of dogs at every stage of their lives; from walking to feeding to doggie play time to post-surgical care. Loving dogs is my heart's special joy. I'm retired so I am available any time your pet needs me. I am an early riser so I can get the dogs out for a walk before the heat of the day. There's always time for a butt scratch. :-) The most important thing to me is to find out how the client wants their pet cared for in their home and meet those needs. My goal is to have a happy, healthy dog when their parents come home.

I am prepared to learn your pets needs no matter how simple or complex they are- my top concern is your pets happiness and health! I promise any instructions discussed and or left for your pets and home will be followed to a T! This includes pets who are particular about how things are done, such as walks, meal time, Potty breaks, and etc (such as my own pets are- lol!) I understand that being welcomed into somebody’s home and taking care of their fur babies is a privilege.

“Anissa came and walked my dog for a couple days and agreed to a meet and greet to discuss expectations beforehand. She was very professional and kind to me and my dog Freya. She asked about all sorts of habits and made sure to give my baby not only the exercise but lunch and refilled her water, she also sent pictures of the walk. Literally the best experience I could have hoped for. I will be booking her again! And I would recommend her.”

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 Ripon. 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 Ripon.

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 Ripon. On Rover:
- 86% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
