“Just wow! Julie provided the utmost in care, above and beyond expectations. She was so caring and loving for my dog. He loved her attention and love. Not a doubt who I'll use in the future.”

About: I've taken care of animals since I've graduated high-school. I'm an animal lover and have taken care of the smallest animals to the biggest. I am willing to go the extra mile for your babies and give plenty of updates. I currently work part-time, allowing me to offer overnight stays as well as morning walks and morning and evening feedings. If your pet requires additional care during the day, I can also accommodate drop-in visits. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I do my best to keep their routine familiar, comfortable, and stress-free while you're away. I provide care in my clients' homes to help pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment. During the first few days, I make an effort to spend extra time with your pet to build trust, learn their routine, and help them feel secure while you're away. I follow all feeding, exercise, and medication instructions carefully and maintain a clean, safe environment. I prioritize your pet's well-being by providing companionship, regular potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention while respecting your home's rules and routines. For overnight stays, I ensure pets have consistency, comfort, and supervision throughout the evening and morning.
“Susan was amazing! I had a last minute cancellation from my typical dog walker and was scrambling to find someone available to walk Theo. Susan quickly agreed. I didn’t have a spare key readily available so I arranged for Susan to go to the leasing office to retrieve a key. She did so without hesitation and was able to take my boy for his walk. I highly recommend Susan and will definitely use her for our dog walking needs again!”

About: Over 20 years as a dog owner. I'm semi-retired. I've been watching friends' and friends of friends' pets for years. I've been the only house/dog sitter for a pair of Dalmatians for the last 5 years. I've handled puppies that are still working on becoming housebroken as well as senior dogs that need regular medication and extra care. I do in-home tech support/ IT work. When a customer's animals have warmed up to me, I've been asked if I did pet sitting as well. It feels good when the pet picks you. My working schedule is very flexible, I'm usuably able to adjust it to make sure I'm available to see to your pet's needs. If I commit to caring for your critters they will be my scheduling priority. I don't have pets in my own home. When house/pet sitting, besides feeding, walking and picking up after the pets I'm capable of handling household issues that might come up.
“Honestly one of the best walkers we’ve ever had. Timely, communicative and understanding. One of our doggos is a rescue and has trust issues, so it can be challenging for new people to walk him. Sandi, however, has been incredibly patient with him and seems to have earned his trust. You won’t regret booking her!”


About: I have always loved and cared about all animals. I currently own 3 cats, a bearded dragon, a tarantula, and fishes. I am currently a veterinary assistant student and will be pursuing a vet tech degree right after! I have taken care of dogs since I was 12. Family friends would let me walk their dog around the neighborhood. Although I don't own any dogs currently, on my free time i go to the san martin animal shelter and do doggy day out. I take dogs on a field trips out of the shelter whether it is a hike, a day at the beach, or just a walk at a park. I am currently not working during the summer and am taking only online classes, so I have enough time play with you pups or kittens! As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. I provide a safe, loving, and calm environment, follow all care instructions closely, and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection! My goal is to help pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away.

About: I have had dogs all my life and a good pup brings me joy. I have 1 dogs of my own that I love to take on long walks, hiking, and to the beach. I would love to share those experiences with your loved ones aka dogs!! I know we live in busy world and sometimes we need just a little help keeping the pups happy, please let me help so you don't have feel guilty for not taking your buddy out. A few things your dogs will experience while in my care are attention, love, affection, and of course some treats if you will allow. I am a very out going person and your pups will be in good hands. I am here to help. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to care for your pets to take on walks and more. I am available on weekends and weekdays. All dogs I for care will receive walks, snuggle time and more throughout the day, rather they are in my home or their home. Thanks

About: We’ve had dogs in our family for 10 plus years. We feed, bathe, and walk pets. We love to help with neighbors pets while away. We are home all weekend and enjoy having extra friends.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. From looking after neighborhood dogs as a young girl to caring for my own pets and those of family and friends, animals have always been a big part of my life. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home in Morgan Hill and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to be available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I enjoy spending time with animals and can easily adapt to each pet’s individual needs and routine. Whether your pet needs a midday walk, extra attention while you’re at work, or reliable care while you’re away, I have the flexibility to provide dependable and attentive care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow the pet owner’s instructions and routine to help their pet feel comfortable and secure. I make safety my top priority by ensuring doors, gates, and leashes are secure before going outside and by keeping a close eye on each pet during walks and playtime. I provide plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, and care while respecting the client’s home and their pet’s established routine. I also send regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pet is happy and well cared for while they’re away.

About: I’ve had a love for animals since I was able to walk. I treat every pet like my own, ensuring their daily routine is strictly followed so you can enjoy total piece of mind while you are away. I’m currently on break from a job assignment that finished, and when I’m not working, I dedicate my time to dog boarding, dog walking, and volunteering at the shelter just to spend time with animals. Due to my current routine, it allows me to have open availability and flexibility with pet care. I have a fenced yard with lots of space for your fur baby to potty and play in, as well as two friendly dogs to keep your pup company. I can easily crate or separate your dog if personal space is needed!
“Debbie is absolutely the best! She is so very gentle, kind and patient with our shy girl. When we met her she got down to Blossom’s level and slowly introduced herself and Blossom come to her. In the pics we receive from the walks we can see our girl is relaxed and enjoying her walk. I cannot stress enough, Debbie is the best.”

About: I’ve taken care of family and friend’s dogs and cats: for 2 years now. Often times I would have their dogs stay with me. I kept them safe, cleaned, fed, and happy with play time and walks. I also have spent time with cats, doing drop-in visits, and feeding them. In addition I have an 11 year old cockapoo, so I can confidently say I have experience with animals and dogs that are different breeds and ages. I enjoy being around friendly animals. I’m currently off of school for the summer, so I’ll have lots of free time to take care of any friendly cats or dogs, happily! I enjoy taking morning walks with my dog, and would love to share this experience with other dogs! I am an owner to an 11 year old cockapoo who has a unique personality. I can confidently say I have great experience with taking care of pets. In addition I’ve taken care of 4 other dogs with different personalities and breeds, so I’ve gotten the hang of being adaptable. I offer dog walking and check-in services, providing exercise and care. Your pet will receive personalized attention, ensuring their happiness and well-being while you're away. I make sure your pet is well-fed, has water for hydration, and is being taken out for walks, bathroom breaks, and provided play time. I think it’s important for dogs to let out their energy, as storing energy can cause anxiety. In my eyes your dogs, are your children, and during my time and visits, they are my number one priority!

About: I’ve had my fair share of dogs since birth & found caring for dogs is a win/win, I get the therapy and they get the royalty! It’s in my nature to care for them and give them all the lovin they deserve. My friends come to me when needing a few day sitter or even just to come check on their pup when gone for a long day.

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.
