“Vanessa has been providing excellent weekly walks for my dog. She has a strong understanding of dog behavior and her love for animals is apparent. She asked lots of great questions to get to know my dog’s personality and has been very patient with her quirks. She also gives detailed updates after each walk that help put my mind at ease while I’m away.”
“Natalia was very patient with our border collie who can pull a lot during walks and is over all too energetic most of the time. Her walks really helped Millie be happier during the day before we came hom!”
About: 🧡🐶🐱🧡 As a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet parent, I’m passionate about providing top-notch care for your furry family members. Coming from a family that adores animals, I grew up surrounded by pets—dogs, cats, puppies, a parakeet, and even a turtle! This upbringing instilled in me a natural ability to care for animals of all kinds, understanding their unique needs and personalities. Whether it’s an energetic puppy who loves playtime or a senior dog needing extra comfort, I provide personalized care to ensure every pet feels loved and secure. 🐾 Dog walking with me is more than just exercise—it’s an opportunity for fun and connection! I’ll make sure your pup gets plenty of attention, mental stimulation, and excitement on every outing. When it comes to dog sitting, I go above and beyond to follow your special requests, from feeding schedules and medications to bedtime routines and favorite toys. I treat your fur baby as if they were my own. 🐾 Also currently, I am again a puppy mom to a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and enjoying every moment of it 🐶 My dedication to this process reflects the same care I bring to looking after your beloved pets. With me, you can trust that your fur baby will be pampered, cared for, and treated like royalty—because I know firsthand how much they mean to you! 🧡🐶🐱🧡 Any open slots and I am available for your fur baby. I updated my calendar. Looking forward to meeting you both 🐾🐾🐶🐕. Thank you! ☺️ Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. I create a calm, loving environment where pets feel secure and cared for 🐾❤️. I always follow any specific instructions provided, including feeding schedules 🍽️, medication needs, or preferred routines 🕒, to ensure their comfort and well-being. In a client’s home 🏠, I respect your space and your pet’s established routine, maintaining a familiar and safe environment. I pay close attention to detail, keep the area clean 🧹, and make sure your pet is happy and stress-free 🐶🐱. If caring for pets in my home, I create a welcoming and safe space tailored to their needs. I proof my home to ensure safety and provide additional blankets for comfort if needed . My shared backyard is secure and fully fenced, offering a safe place for pets to play and explore 🎾. The backyard is shared with my wonderful neighbors, who are all loving dog parents themselves 🐕❤️. I strive to make my home their home, where they feel loved and comfortable🐾🏡.
“Marlee is the BEST! Always takes the best care of my Billie! She helps me with last minute requests as well as future bookings, very communicative and always on time! Recommended her 100%”
“Thank God for Marlene! My last minute work trips she always books comes through works it into her schedule. She is the best with my super hyper Belgium malinois puppy. She always provides a pic she even will do clean up service for your puppy and give them water. She's just a solid dog walker!”
About: I’ve taken care of many different breeds and sizes of dogs. I don’t discriminate based on breed or size—I welcome them all! I have hands-on experience with dogs and can administer medication if needed. I’ll also make sure to stick to your pet’s usual routine, providing them with the care and comfort they’re used to. I’m a stay-at-home mom with a 10-year-old daughter and a 1-year-old son. Our beloved family dog was with us for 14 years before recently passing, so I truly understand how important pets are to a family. I’m home most of the time due to my toddler’s nap schedule, which means your dog will have plenty of company and attention throughout the day. We also have a fenced yard, so your pup will have a safe space to play and relax. I’ll walk and feed your dog based on your instructions and do my best to keep them happy, comfortable, and loved. We’re a dog-friendly household with a decent-sized fenced backyard—perfect for play and relaxation. If you’re okay with it, we welcome dogs on the couch and treat them like part of our family while you're away. My kids absolutely love animals, so I kindly ask that your pet be kid-friendly. I do daily short walks around the neighborhood, and I’m happy to offer longer walks or hikes for an additional fee.
“Alisha is the best! Very communicative, and Storm is always so happy to see Alisha. We are so happy to have someone like Alisha to help with Storm during the hours we can’t. Really great!”

About: As avid dog lovers with over 15 years of experience, we've cared for various breeds, including our own Shih Tzu who sadly passed away last year. We also frequently looked after our brother’s French Bulldog, who happily reunited with our Shih Tzu, and a Siberian Husky, along with other family dogs. Living in a pet-friendly community with ample grassy areas, your pups will have plenty of space to roam and play. Before your drop-off, we'd love to arrange a meet and greet to acquaint ourselves with you and your furry companions! This is not our first time on Rover. We have been dog-sitting on Rover for about 3 years. The first two years were under a different account with our mom because of age. So we did it together with our parents and were very happy with both animal and human clientele who were just as happy with our services. If you would like to see reviews from then I can send over those Rover Account details as well! We understand the importance of ensuring both you and your beloved pets have peace of mind while you're away, and we're dedicated to providing them with a safe and enjoyable experience under our care! We are currently completely free, accommodating both weekdays and weekends. Our days will be completely catered to the needs of your babies. We understand the importance of convenience, offering flexible pick-up and drop-off times, including same-day services. Whether it's a weekday, weekend, or holiday, we're here to ensure seamless care for your beloved pets. We offer a fenced backyard patio and expansive grassy areas within our community, and we're happy to provide photos of the surroundings upon request prior to booking. Alternatively, we can arrange a meet and greet so you can explore our dog-friendly and secure neighborhood firsthand. Our area boasts ample walking spaces and provides poop bags for your convenience. For crate-trained dogs, we recommend bringing their crate to ensure their comfort. Additionally, please bring any items that will help your dog feel at ease and secure during their stay. If your dog requires medication, be sure to bring it along. While we do offer some dog treats, feel free to bring your pup's favorites to ensure they feel right at home. Your pets' comfort and safety are our top priorities, and we strive to make their stay as enjoyable as possible!

“I highly recommend Zen for dog walks. She’s incredibly patient and has a great vibe and energy. I’ll definitely be using her for dog walks in the future. Thank you again for walking Viktoria!”
About: I’m one of those people who spots a dog and instantly wants to go play/pet it. I have a 2 year old super mutt pittie mix. I learned a lot about training and handling dogs through her. I’m great at being consistent with training, for example when my friends are training their dog I make sure to reinforce the rules to their expectations. So please just let me know what you’re working on and I’ll make sure to keep up the training when I interact with the dog. As long as I have a list of what the dog needs I can make it happen and show lots of love. I am comfortable with dogs of all ages and breeds. However, if a dog is easily agitated by other dogs I would need to know so I can have a plan for that. I will make sure to give your dog enough exercise, I love playing fetch and tug a war. I will do home visits to play with your pet or go to feed them. I can do this with cats too! I am off for the summer and have a pretty open calendar! So if you need a weekend just ask if I’m available. I love meeting new fur friends :)
About: Hello! My name is Tabatha and I've taken care of dogs for the past 10 years outside of having dogs myself for my whole life. I’ve used Rover for my dog too, so I understand the level of care pet parents look for! I also foster dogs from local shelters from time to time so I’m used to working with all kinds of pups. I recently started working from home more so I have more availability to hang with your pup. :) I currently work from home on the days I’m available & love to take the dogs out for a romp in the yard or walks in the neighborhood. There’s a doggy door to my fenced backyard so they can also come & go as they please. :) I have a fenced in yard and am familiar with walks and parks in my area. I also love playing and engaging pets with toys and training.
“Tira had such an amazing first week with Kate. She usually takes a while to warm up to people but I can tell she already loves her. So happy to have found Kate and am looking forward to seeing all of the cute pics from their walks!”
“Daria was easy to communicate with and was great with Juni! I appreciated that she wiled Juni’s paws after walking in the rain. Loved the action shots on Juni’s report card. Thank you, Daria! :)”
About: I love pets! I’ve taken care of family members pets by feeding them or playing with them in their house. I’m unable to do so in my own house, but in others I’m very reliable. I did gig work sometimes on an app called gig work and am out of college for the summer, so I will have plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while staying in their familiar environment. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any special instructions from the owner. For overnight stays, I’ll make sure your pets feel relaxed and keep their normal routine while also respecting and caring for your home. I also love sending updates and photos so owners feel reassured while away.
About: I have dogsat for different family members and even my significant other’s on multiple occasions since I was 11. I’m very observant when it comes to body language and behavior. I take pride in over-caring than under-caring. Your dog’s enjoyment is my top priority! I’m currently looking for a part-time job, so at this very moment I have plenty of free-time to get to know you and your doggos. I can bathe, brush, walk, etc. when instructed by you to do so. My daily routine can be flexible but will eventually changed due to career managing. I’m happy to communicate and accommodate! I have a small Honda Fit Hatchback car for transportation that can be used to go to the park. I will also supply water, wet wipes (dog friendly), and a small ball or two for playing! If the doggo wants a joyride, I can provide!
“Briana has been wonderful with my pup, who can be difficult to walk and has had an injury recently. My dog loves her, and Briana's been so responsible, responsive to requests, and has taken great care of my dog.”

Angelica walked my 2 dogs this week while I was out of town and my husband, who works overnight, was asleep. I was worried as my dog Cali can be a bit feisty to new people but she seemed to warm up to Angelica very fast! Both dogs seemed to have a great time on their walls from the pictures Angelica shared with me. She is communicative, responsive, and responsible, and we will definitely book with her again!
Daria is an exceptional pet sitter who has a remarkable ability to connect with our pups. Her patience, love, and compassion are evident in her interactions with them. She has a keen understanding of our dogs’ unique training styles, and they readily follow her lead. I highly recommend Daria for any pet care 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 your San Leandro. 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.

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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in San Leandro. 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.
