Iâm comfortable with walking, feeding, bathing, and administering medication. Your pup will be cared for like family đ¤ I currently work part-time and attend school full-time, with three completely free days each week. However I am flexible and I plan my schedule carefully to give pets the time and attention they deserve. I make sure feedings, walks, playtime, and check-ins are always a priority in my routine. Making sure pets are safe, comfortable, and happy is always my top priority. Whether in my home or a clientâs home, I carefully follow all care instructions and stick to their usual routines. I have a large, fenced-in backyard with plenty of space for safe playtime and zoomies! I maintain a clean, secure environment and treat every pet like my own so they feel loved and at ease. đžđ¤
About: I have an extreme interest in EVERYTHING about pets specifically dogs! I have trained my own dog from a 2 months old who is 3 now! I take him everywhere with me! I have worked very closely with a dog trainer at my previous job and gained knowledge from it including from my own experiences and research! I also cared for a wide range of pets! I have 1 dog named Charlie! 3 ferrets and 1 bearded dragon! I care for them around the clock whatâs a couple more added to the list to love and care for like my own?! My schedule is very flexible! Iâm very young and active! I would love to bring your dog along with me or be a couch potato if they have a more chill vibe! Iâm along for it all!! I have my own dog as well if they need a buddy!
About: My extensive experience in pet care is founded on a deeply rooted love for animals and a commitment to providing top-notch service. What sets me apart from other sitters is my personalized approach tailored to each pet's unique needs and personality. Whether it's walking a puppy, or providing gentle care for senior pets, I have a versatile skill set that ensures every furry friend in my care receives the attention and support they deserve. My ability to adapt to various situations and my keen understanding of animal behavior enable me to create a safe and comfortable environment where pets thrive. Don't think I just stop at Cats and Dogs! I was a professional pet sitter for years and have watched and cared for Guinea Pigs, Hamsters, Fishes and a Pigeon (yes even a pigeon). I currently have 8 year old cat Begbie (gorgeous, grumpy and full of sass) 2 1/2 year old cat Dexter (always has his tuxedo on ready to crash events and full of spice) 3 guinea pigs (Norman, Joel and Donnie), they currently reside in their own room (with fences around the outlets), where they have plenty of room to forage, hide, run, whatever their tiny hearts desire. In essence, my passion for pets, sets me apart as a pet sitter who goes above and beyond to exceed expectations and provide peace of mind to pet owners. One of the biggest perks of having a flexible schedule right now? I have plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve! I currently have very flexible daytime/nighttime availability, which means I can accommodate a variety of pet-sitting needs, including drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of companionship. Iâm also able to spend extra time with pets who need a little more attention or simply donât enjoy being left alone for long periods. Need someone to stop by during the day? Iâm your person! Have a pet who needs multiple visits? Letâs talk! Have a senior pet who needs a little extra TLC? Absolutely! Have a furry friend who thinks a 20-minute visit is simply unacceptable? I understand their demands. đ Because my schedule is flexible, Iâm happy to work with you to create a routine that keeps your pets comfortable and maintains as much of their normal schedule as possible. Your schedule may be busy. Mine is currently wide openâand your pets are more than welcome to fill it! đśđąđšđŚ Availability varies by day and booking, so please reach out and letâs see what works best for you and your pets. Whether Iâm caring for your pet in their home or caring for my own in our home, my number-one priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and completely spoiledâin the best possible way! I believe keeping their routine as normal as possible is key. I follow your instructions for feeding, medications, walks, litter box care, playtime, and any special routines your pet has. I also make sure they get plenty of attention and companionship because I know pets can miss their humans just as much as humans miss them. I pay close attention to behavior and look for anything unusual, such as changes in appetite, energy, bathroom habits, or mood. If something doesnât seem right, Iâll let you know promptly. Iâll also treat your home with the same respect I would my ownâclean, secure, and exactly as you left it. I have experience with cats and small animals and understand that every pet has a different comfort level. Some want to play, some want cuddles, some want to explore, and some would prefer to stare at me from across the room while silently judging my life choices. I respect all of these personalities! đ Most importantly, I donât believe pet sitting is simply checking a box on a to-do list. Itâs about building trust, providing companionship, following your petâs routine, and making sure they feel happy and secure while youâre away. You enjoy your time away. Iâll handle the treats, belly rubs, zoomies, and occasional feline attitude. đž
About: Iâve helped care for dogs belonging to friends and family, including those of my last three roommates. From daily walks and baths to playtime and cuddles, I loved being part of their routines and building a bond with each of them. Since moving from NYC to Philly, I no longer live with dogs, and I really miss their company! Dog walking feels like a lovely way to spend time with animals while helping other pet parents. Iâll take the time to learn your dogâs personality and routine, and give them the care, affection and attention Iâd want for a pet of my own. Iâm a freelance designer currently looking for a full-time role, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to spend with your pets. I can fit walks, drop-in visits and playtime around my design projects, giving your pet attentive care and company while youâre away. Iâm also available on weekends and can often accommodate short-notice bookings! I take the time to learn each dogâs routine, personality and boundaries so they feel comfortable in my care. I believe in paying attention to their body language and giving them affection, space or reassurance when they need it. For a year, I walked my roommateâs lovely beagle three times a week for an hour each time. I also cared for him for several weeks at a time while she travelled home, keeping up with his routine and making sure he had plenty of exercise, play and company. My most recent roommate had a five-pound toy poodle, so I also have experience providing the extra gentleness and attention a very small dog needs during walks, baths and everyday care. In your home, Iâll follow your instructions and respect your space. If your dog stays with me, Iâm happy to welcome them onto the bed for cuddles, provided thatâs something you allow at home too!
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and bunnies since I was younger. I currently have two bunnies of my own. Friends and family have relied on me to watch their pets, walk them, play with them, etc. Pet lover at heart. I do work from home mostly so I can work around my schedule. I currently work from home 8-4, so I have relatively open availability for all of your needs. My schedule fluctuates week to week based on meetings, etc. Open to walks and drop in visits as long as my schedule allows. I currently have two pet rabbits that are in a gated area. I have enough space in my apartment to accommodate your pet if needed. My apartment complex has a fenced in dog park and lots of areas for walking.
About: Iâve had cats my entire life and have always helped out taking care of my friendâs cats and dogs. When it comes to taking full care of other peopleâs pets Iâve done a couple of pet sitting jobs in the past year or so. While home from college I have free time almost everyday for most of the day! While I may need to go home to check on my own pets or family I can usually spend most of the day with your pets. Iâm a bit of a night owl so morning can be rough but I thrive in the late morning and afternoon! I canât have pets come over to my house because of my cats, but when at your house I can always be there for your animal! Whether they are playing or just want company while lounging at home!

She is free to roam around my house, no cage is needed. As a teacher with a structured schedule from 8 to 3, Iâve built a consistent routine around pet care, feeding, walks, and playtime happen before and after work, with weekends dedicated to deeper bonding and grooming. Itâs a rewarding part of my day that helps me unwind and stay balanced. I provide attentive, personalized care by sticking to each petâs routine, whether thatâs feeding, walks, playtime, or administering medications.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Riverside
Kim is amazing. She is calm, kind, empathetic and my dog is truly in love with her. Shes also always on time and extremely responsive via the app. I was super nervous about finding a dog sitter/walker after some bad experiences with our last dog and feel truly relieved to have someone we can rely on to treat our dog like her own. If she ever stops walking dogs, Iâm not sure what weâll do!

Wondered how I would find a dog walker my dogs know on Thanksgiving Day. Naomi to the rescue! I knew I could depend on her to come while we would be gone for several hours and the dogs just love her. They ate well but a little hesitant to walk. Naomi offered to walk a second time, but I knew they would be ok till we go home. And they were. Thanks so much Naomi and I know we will always contact you first.

The average cost of Dog Walking in Riverside is $26 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your petâs specific needs.

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 Riverside. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dogâs walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Riverside after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
The Rover Guarantee is Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 Riverside. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitterâs cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, youâll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
