About: My family has had our dog Scooby since he was 3 weeks old and he is now 6 years old. I’ve trained him since he was young how to behave and he knows plenty of tricks too! I also used to dog sit/babysit for family members often. I currently have an internship and am busy Tuesdays-Thursdays but I’m available on Mondays, Fridays, and weekends when needed. My schedule can be flexible so let me know and I might be able to accommodate! I prefer to travel to clients within the East Bay Area. Safety is always my top priority in mind, for both your pet and myself. I understand that some dogs need time to adjust to new people and I always want to create a comfortable environment for them.

About: I grew up around animals and have always loved caring for them. I have experience caring for neighbors’ dogs and currently work part-time with a pet care company, where I help with walking and caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’m reliable, patient, and bilingual in English and Spanish. I’ll treat your pets with the same love and care I’d give my own! ❤️ I work remotely part-time for a pet care company and make my own schedule, so I have plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting.

I make sure doors, gates, leashes, food, and medications are handled safely, and I’m happy to do a meet and greet beforehand. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe and cared for.

About: I am a ER/ICU vet assistant who worked at an emergency vet hospital. I have been working in veterinary medicine for almost 10 years. My main priority is keeping pets safe but also keeping them happy and monitoring their wellbeing. I will be watching their behavior and keeping up with them to make sure they have the best care from me since they are apart of your family. From my animal care background, I will know if there is any distress or additional attention needed. I am familiar with medications, giving medications, and other animal health care needs. If there is an emergency, I am able to handle the situation as necessary. I hold it to the highest standard knowing I am left with that responsibility. I’m currently in school for a few hours a week so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups and give lots of love to your kittens! I’m available most weekdays all day except for Mondays and Wednesdays from 12pm-3pm. I have one small senior dog who is not aggressive to other pets. If needed, I can still keep your pup separate from mine. I also have a 5 year old daughter who takes after her mom and LOVES pets but I am always able to set boundaries if needed.

I am a dog mommy of a sweet Shiba Inu, and he is my cute BFF. When your furry baby is with me, I will treat him or her like my own, making sure that he or she is feeling as happy and comfortable as possible. I am pretty good at adapting to all of the unique dog personalities, and I'm very patient and gentle towards them. I will play games, take him/her on nature walks, and snuggle him/her. We have a huge dog park within 5 minutes of walking distance so they will sure to have a lot of play-dates! :) Your dog's well-being and safety are my priority. I ask that you bring any toys, water & food bowl, leash and/or harness, and food and treats (if you wish). I currently live in a house with backyard in Hayward. Let me know if you have any requests, and I will easily accommodate to your needs. Feel free to contact me with any questions, and I hope to see you and your lovely dog soon ♡ I'm currently work from home, which means your dog will always have human companionship throughout the day.

I try to maintain a consistent schedule as instructed, and provide plenty of playtime with them in my fenced backyard. My furbaby is always happy to be your pup’s new best friend!

About: I’ve had cats for about 7 years and have always loved caring for them. I’ve also rescued several kittens and helped find them good homes. One of the reasons I’m majoring in Veterinary Assisting is because I’ve seen how cats are often overlooked, and I want to help give them the care they deserve. I’ll treat your cat like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Since it’s summer, my schedule is very flexible. I do have a part-time job, but my shifts are usually only a few hours long and vary throughout the week. Outside of work, I have plenty of time to care for your pets and give them the attention they deserve. I will make sure your pets are well cared for while you’re away, and I’ll send regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re happy and safe. Your pet’s safety and well-being are always my top priorities. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely care about making sure pets are happy and comfortable. I make it a point to check on them regularly, give them plenty of attention, and make sure their needs are met. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your pets are in good hands.

About: I've had cats, dogs, rodents and fish my entire life. I have also worked at a dog boarding facility in the past. I'm dedicated to learning your pets needs and make sure they're happy. I work as a hairdresser so my schedule is mostly flexible with some notice, I have two cats that get fed twice a day that I would need to check on as well but otherwise your pet has my full attention. I learn their feeding and potty schedules, incorporate their playtimes in and keep them away from any destructive or dangerous behavior. I am very perceptive of animals and knowledgeable of their behavior so it comes natural to me.

Zoey is absolutely amazing! She comes to my home twice a week to walk my dog, Benicio, and I couldn’t be happier with her. She is always on time, dependable, attentive, and incredibly friendly. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about Benicio and treats him with so much love and patience. Most importantly, Benicio absolutely loves her! He gets so excited to see her, which gives me so much peace of mind knowing he’s in great hands when I’m not home. Zoey is trustworthy, professional, and goes above and beyond to make sure Benicio gets a great walk and plenty of attention. I highly recommend Zoey to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and wonderful dog walker. We’re so lucky to have found her! 🐾❤️

Naomi was great with our dog, Lulu! I needed someone to walk Lulu while my husband was out of town, since I’m not great on my feet. She came twice a day as scheduled and is very pleasant! Lulu can be a little temperamental with new people, and she only refused to go a couple of times toward the end, which had everything to do with her missing my husband (her person, lol) and not Naomi. I will book with her again next year, if she’s available!

Charlie did an amazing job taking care of Nova! He was so encouraging and patient with her, helping her feel comfortable enough to go to the bathroom during their walk. He took her on a lovely, calm walk where she was able to relax, explore, and get some good exercise. By the time they got back, Nova was completely tired out in the best way—happy, settled, and ready to go right to sleep. You can tell Charlie really cares about the pets he looks after and makes sure they feel safe and well cared for. I would definitely trust him again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in San Lorenzo on Rover is $32 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $48 per walk. walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 14,086 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across San Lorenzo. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Lorenzo. 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 dog’s 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 San Lorenzo 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 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 Lorenzo. 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 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 sitter’s 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, you’ll 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.
