About: Hi there! I’m so excited that you stopped by. What sets me apart from other dog walkers is my deep love for animals, my 30+ years of experience caring for pets, and my ability to truly connect with each dog I walk. I don’t just take dogs for a walk—I create a tailored experience that meets their unique needs. Whether your pup needs a structured walk to reinforce good leash manners, a slow-paced stroll with plenty of sniff breaks, or an energy-burning adventure, I adjust my approach to fit their personality. Beyond my experience, I have a keen understanding of canine behavior and body language, allowing me to anticipate their needs and ensure every walk is a positive and stress-free experience. If your dog is nervous, reactive, or has special quirks, I’m patient, calm, and skilled in handling all types of temperaments. I also prioritize safety and communication—I always keep a close eye on my surroundings, use secure handling techniques, and keep pet parents updated with check-ins, photos, or notes about how their pup did on their walk. Most importantly, I treat every dog as if they were my own—with love, care, and attention. Your pup isn’t just another walk on my schedule—they’re a part of my day that I look forward to. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine because caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s something I love. Every day, I carve out dedicated time to ensure that each pup gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. Whether it’s an early morning walk to start their day off right, a mid-day adventure to break up their routine, or an evening stroll to wind down, I make sure every walk is filled with care, fun, and lots of tail wags. I understand that life gets busy, and that’s why I’m here—to make sure your furry family member is taken care of while you handle your day with peace of mind. My flexible schedule allows me to prioritize the well-being of each dog, ensuring they get the movement, love, and attention they deserve. Every walk is more than just exercise—it’s an opportunity for your pup to explore, sniff, and enjoy the world, all while feeling safe and loved. I can’t wait to welcome your pup into my routine and make their walks a highlight of their day! Caring for pets is more than just a job for me—it’s my passion. While I no longer offer in-home care, I provide dedicated, loving care through personalized dog walks that ensure your pup gets the exercise, attention, and enrichment they need. Every walk is tailored to your dog’s unique energy level and personality, whether they enjoy a slow-paced sniffari, a brisk power walk, or a little playtime along the way. I believe that a happy dog is a well-exercised dog, and I treat every pup as if they were my own—offering patience, encouragement, and plenty of love while making sure they feel safe and comfortable. My goal is to give your dog a fun, engaging break in their day so they return home happy, fulfilled, and ready to relax. When you trust me with your furry family member, you can rest assured that they’ll be in caring, experienced hands every step of the way. I can’t wait to meet your pup and be a part of their daily routine!

“Rachel is amazing!!! I have booked daycare and dog walking services with her and she goes above and beyond to make sure my sweet Bumper dog is happy!!”

About: My name is Krista and I live in Ripon, CA. I love animals and have been caring for them, in my own home and for friends and family members, for years. I know how challenging it can be to travel, have a full time job, or simply get out of town when you have animals to care for. Let me help lift that burden. Not only will I make sure your pets are provided with their basic needs, I will ensure they’re loved extra well! I work remotely 60% of the time and travel onsite to the Bay Area on Tuesdays and Wednesday. On the days I’m not working from home, I am available to do home visits every morning and again in the later afternoon and evening times during the week. On the weekends I’m much more flexible. I’m looking forward to seeing how I can help you and your family! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

“Our dog had knee surgery and was 6 weeks post op and was on leash walking only for short periods. We have two dogs and Donna house sat and cared for our dogs for a little over two weeks. She did an excellent job of keeping the one restricted to short walks and taking care of both dogs. She sent pictures and video of both dogs and we knew that the dogs were happy, relaxed and well taken care of. She will definitely care for our dogs on the next trip.”

“Belen has been an animal lover for as long as I’ve known her. She has loving pets of her own that are absolutely spoiled silly. All the walks, all the toys, and all the play. Not only that but Belen has watched over my pup for when I’m gone for an extended period of time. Belen is a caring and kind person. She takes care of your pets like they are hers! Belen actively fosters, and helps find homes when possible.”

“My dog is very precious to me. I looked around several places and found Debbie. She was wonderful. Her house was clean and she has a dog of her own name Zoe. She has a nice Shih Tzu and played nice with my dog. I felt comfortable after I walked around and seen a clean household with a doggie door. She takes dog walks every day by her house. There is a bike trail. She also plays well with both dogs. She’s kind & considerate. I will definitely have her watch my dog again.”

“Jennifer was awesome with my boy. She was very attentive and was able to meet my dogs needs. Would definitely use her again! Thank you again 🙏🏻”

About: I’ve owned/been around dogs my entire life. About three years ago I got my own dog for the first time and since then have taken care of my families elderly dog until his passing recently. I’ve dog-sat for family for many years and absolutely love it! I’m also currently studying to become a veterinary assistant! P.S. Ask me about my availability, the selections on rover aren’t exactly accurate to my actual availability! I’m currently a stay at home mom looking to bring in extra cash to support my family. When checking in with your pets it would be preferred if I can bring my baby with me (please let me know if this is unacceptable). I will happily check in with your pets and play with them for as long as necessary! When checking in, i’ll happily able to any special instructions such as giving medicine. I’m happy to get their steps in as well on a nice long walk.

“Awesome! My dogs loved their walks with Kelsey”

“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.”

About: I've grown up taking care of cats and dogs, I also have experience with rodents such as rabbits, mice, rats, and hamsters. I also am fine taking care of reptiles if needed. I'm available almost everyday, so I have plenty of time to stay at your house and watch your animals. I can even stay the night if needed. I feed them breakfast and dinner everyday, clean litter boxes once or twice a day depending on how many cats, and I could walk the dogs two or three times a day.

“Melissa did a wonderful job taking care of my German Shepherd and Doberman. She did an overnight stay and walked them once a day. She gave them lots of love and attention. I will be contacting her for my next dog sitting job.”
