About: Hi! My name is Blessy, and I’ve always had a love for animals. As a cat owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your pets while you’re away. I’m patient, responsible, and dedicated to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I have experience caring for both cats and dogs, including feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning up after pets, administering basic medications, and following specific care instructions. I treat every pet as if they were my own and am happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, young, or senior, I’m committed to providing personalized care and attention. I currently work part time, which allows me flexibility to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. I am available for drop in visits, walks, and pet sitting before and after work, as well as on many weekends. I understand the importance of maintaining your pet’s routine and will always do my best to accommodate their schedule and needs. I provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special care requests. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality and boundaries to help them feel comfortable and secure. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important trust is, and I will treat your home and pets with the same care and respect I would expect for my own. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Cheryll is awesome. She truly cares about the dogs she walks. She gave my pups a great walk and was very responsive and followed my instructions perfectly. I will definitely use her again as a dog walker, and would highly recommend her to any dog parents out there.”
“Maya is a reliable and caring dog lover. She took great care in getting to know my shy dog and reassured me that my pet would be in good hands. I’ve gone ahead and booked her for much of May! Great experience.”
About: I have two years of daily, hands-on experience caring for my own dog, Kylie. She is energetic but can be shy in unfamiliar situations, so I have learned to read a dog’s body language, give them time to adjust, and build trust without forcing interaction. In addition to caring for Kylie, I regularly help care for my friends’ dogs when they are away. This has given me experience following different feeding, walking, playtime, and bathroom routines and caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels. I am patient, attentive, and careful about following each owner’s instructions. I will treat your dog with the same care I give my own and provide regular photo and message updates while you are away. I currently have a flexible schedule, so I am able to plan my day around pet care and provide consistent attention rather than rushing between visits. I am generally available on weekdays for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening care depending on the booking. I will confirm my availability before accepting each request and make sure I have enough time to follow your pet’s usual feeding, walking, playtime, and bathroom routine. I provide care in my client’s home, where pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment. Before the booking, I prefer to have a meet and greet to learn about each pet’s personality, routine, care instructions, and any special needs. I carefully follow the owner’s directions for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication. I pay close attention when entering or leaving the home and always check that doors, windows, gates, leashes, and harnesses are secure. I will never let a pet off leash or introduce them to unfamiliar animals without the owner’s permission. I respect my client’s home, keep the pet’s space clean, and maintain their usual routine as closely as possible. I also provide regular photos and updates and will contact the owner promptly if I notice any unusual behavior or health concerns.
About: Hey dog and cat owners 🐶🐱 Are you planning a vacation and worried about leaving your furry friends behind? I've got you covered 🐾 What sets me apart from other sitters is my love and hands-on experience with all kinds of dogs, from beagles and Jindos to mixed breeds and Retrievers. I ensure plenty of walks and consistent care, always showing genuine love and attention. I've cared for many friends' dogs, whether they're big breeds like Jindos or small ones like Pomeranians and poodles. You can count on me to be a reliable and caring sitter for your furry friends! I’m home almost every day unless I have an appointment. Both my husband and I work from home, so your dog will always have plenty of company, attention, and excellent care throughout the day. We also have a beagle who is very chill indoors. I’ll send pictures to ensure you are updated of your furry friend🐕 I would take care of your dog like mine. My neighborhood has 2 nearby parks where I can take them for a walk as well.
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and caring for them has always been second nature. I grew up with a dog and a duck, and have continuously lived in homes with cats and dogs through college and graduate school, so I’m very comfortable with their routines and behavior. I’ve also cared for pets for friends and family over the years, including feeding, walking, cleaning, and making sure they feel comfortable and well cared for while their owners are away. I understand the importance of consistency, attention, and keeping pets on their normal schedule. I also have three tortoises of my own, including one I’ve had for nearly 23 years, which has made me especially attentive to routines, environment, and long-term care. I am currently volunteering at the Kitten Nursery with the Peninsula Humane Society, where I help taking care of kittens too young for adoption. I have a very flexible schedule through freelance consulting work, which allows me to be available for pet care most days of the week, including weekdays and weekends. I can accommodate a variety of schedules, whether it’s regular visits or last-minute needs. The only consistent commitment I have is volunteering on Monday afternoons at the Peninsula Humane Society, but outside of that, I’m highly flexible and able to adjust to your pet’s routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, litter box or cleanup routines, exercise, and any specific preferences your pet is used to. I take a calm and patient approach, especially with shy or more independent pets, and make sure they feel comfortable in their own space. I also keep the home clean and organized, and treat it with the same respect I would my own. I’m attentive to any changes in behavior or health and will communicate updates regularly so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“Best dog walker ever!!!! You would be a fool to let anyone else walk your dog, she is so sweet and kind, Frankie just loves her. Responsible, on time, high integrity, a pleasure meeting her, and happy she was able to squeeze in Frankie last minute with huge smile, kind words, and plenty of pictures, she went above and beyond taking such good care of his special needs for pure love!!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for the past 5 years (maybe more). Neighbors, friends, and relatives have relied on me for walks, feeding, and grooming. I enjoy taking care of pets(in general) because I love seeing their personalities shine through and it’s rewarding to see them enjoy their time with me. As always I make sure the care I give is the same as their owners because I want to make sure the routine doesn’t change. I work from home which is convenient because my schedule is very flexible. I’m usually free in the afternoons from Monday to Wednesday (1-7pm). Thursdays are my busiest days at work as I have meetings all day until 5pm. And most Fridays I’m free as well(10:30am-6pm). For house sitting, since I have a pet of my own (a cat 🐱), I would need to be home by 6:30pm to feed her for dinner. So I would prefer to care for your pet during the day, leave around 6pm, then come back the following morning to continue care. I am open to staying overnight but it would have to be 2 nights at max. Any house sitting stays more than 2 nights I would need to leave to feed my cat dinner and come back the following morning. When doing visits, I will be attentive of your pet and their environment at all times. Every visit I’ll make sure they’re well fed, water is fresh, and play with them as needed. Please let me know if there are specific instructions that I need to follow when I’m at your residence. I’m also familiar with a bunch of parks that are dog/pet friendly in the peninsula so your pet will always be entertained and safe in my care. Also for house sits, because I wfh and work with patients, please let me know of any cameras in your place and make sure to mute the microphones as I do not want to violate HIPAA.
“Rylan is an amazing dog walker who goes the extra mile to make sure your pet is happy. I appreciated that Rylan took extra time to make my dog feel comfortable during meet and greet. He also gave her a belly rub, played fetch and spent time with her after her walk. Rylan was incredibly kind, reliable and an excellent communicator. He informed me when he was on his way and he responded instantly to messages. I highly recommend his services if your pet needs care when you can't be there!”
“Meghann was absolutely amazing with our dog! Our dog can be a bit shy, but she loved Meghann right away! Meghann gave our dog her daily walks and spent time making sure she was settled and taken care of. We will definitely book with Meghann again! ❤️”
About: Hi, my name is Emily! I have 3 years experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and needs. I own quite a quirky dog myself, so I am patient and understanding when dogs are moody or anxious, and I always take care to learn each dog’s unique personality. I am able to calmly avoid potential altercations and also reassure dogs who are nervous on walks. It is important to me to build a trusting relationship with every animal I work with, even if we are only meeting for 30 minutes. My goal is to help your dog feel safe and at home, get them some exercise, give them plenty of love and attention, and create the best time possible while they are missing you. As a remote worker, I have plenty of time to spend with your pet, whether that’s walking, playing, or puppy sitting, and along with having an instinct for what animals need, I will always be sure to follow your instructions for feeding, play, simple training, and bathroom schedules as well! While in your home, I will be sure to respect your privacy and standards of cleanliness, and I am comfortable discussing responsibilities of sweeping/vacuuming hair, taking out trash, and cleaning up animal-related messes, particularly during the damper seasons.
“Luke has been amazing with my stubborn bullies. Getting them to move when they don’t want to but also exercising patience and love. He truly is the dog whisper and grateful that we found him!”
“Gracy has been amazing. She started off doing weekly walks with our dog, Skye, and our son's dog, Loki. Skye is very independent so I wasn't sure how Gracy was going to handle it, but Gracy ended up being the perfect person for Skye! My wife and I went on a 6 day cruise and needed someone to take Skye out while our son was at work. Gracy eagerly agreed. Our grandkids also stopped by several times during our trip and told us that Skye was sad and didn't want to come out of her kennel. But when I saw the pictures that Gracy sent us while taking Skye on walks everyday, I knew that our girl was in good hands. Thank you so much Gracy, you are one of Skye's favorite people.”

Sarah was super great!! This was my first time leaving my dog with someone other than family and he’s more on the anxious side but she was extremely patient and understanding of his space and boundaries. In addition to sending mepictures from their walk she also included a detail report of their session which I loved. Will be booking again with Sarah in the near future!
We couldn’t be happier with the care Chaco has received. She is dependable, thoughtful, and genuinely loves animals, and it shows in the way she interacts with Chaco. We always feel confident knowing he is in such caring hands. She is great about communication, reliable with her schedule, and pays attention to all the little things that make him comfortable and happy. It’s such a relief to have someone we trust completely, and Chaco absolutely loves seeing her. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will care for their dog like their own! 🐾❤️
Samantha was on time, friendly, and Pinky went straight to her so that is always a good sign from my pup. She also kept me informed with her walk and a little giddyup I already knew about on her righ hip. Old doggie issues. Definitely will book with her again and recommend her to anyone else looking for someone to care for your fur baby.
Catherine has been walking Charlie regularly for a month and he absolutely loves her. He’s a big boy who can pull, but she is very patient and kind with him. She sends the cutest pics and keeps us up to date on anything she thinks we need to know about his behavior on walks. We highly recommend her as a dog walker!
She was really sweet with Foxy. We had great communication the whole time, and even though I didn’t get to meet her in person, she made me feel completely comfortable and confident that Foxy was in great hands. Foxy seemed really happy and excited when she came back from her walk, which I could see on the camera! I would definitely love to have her help walk Foxy again whenever I’m out of town. Thank you again! I really appreciate how kind and caring you were with Foxy.

Marisela was wonderful! I was in town for a month for work and she was so helpful walking my dog regularly while I was in the office. She was very flexible and responsive, and I could tell she put a lot of care in what she does. My dog loved the walks and I really appreciated the frequent pictures and updates! I would highly recommend booking her for your needs.
Esther did an outstanding job walking Mac who is very particular! She was kind and caring with him and communicated well when she and I needed to adjust the schedule slightly. I highly recommend Esther for your pet care needs!!! Thank you Esther for taking care of my fur baby MacGyver ❤️🎉😀

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 San Bruno. 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 San Bruno.

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 San Bruno. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
