Kat is great! Bruce has been on two walks with her so far and has had a great time. Kat is extremely responsive and communicative, and we felt totally confident in sending Bruce off with her. She's good at using the app and giving updates, which we appreciate. Bruce seemed so happy when they got back, and we will definitely be booking again!

First time using Tonya. She is responsible and I totally trusted her while my dog was in her care. My dog also seemed to warm up to her right away.

Megan was our first walker on Rover for a puppy Lola and I was more than reassured with her excellent care. Megan was on time, provided plenty of updates and made sure Lola was comfortable and safe. She even offered to check on our other dog in the yard. Thanks again Megan! We will be rebooking :)

About: Your pup will receive plenty of love, care, and attention during every visit! We request that your pup is up to date on their vaccinations, are clean and flea free. Having grown up with dogs and cats since my teenage years, I have extensive experience caring for pets. Friends and family have also trusted me to walk, feed, and house-sit their animals. I have a Golden Retriever who is full of energy and enjoys making new friends. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to provide visits, walks, feedings, and check-ins throughout the day, ensuring pets receive consistent attention, care, and companionship when their owners are away. I create a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or cuddles, I make sure each pet receives plenty of attention, follows their normal routine, and is cared for as if they were my own.

I can’t say enough good things about Crystal. I have a very picky and often difficult Bully...he loved Crystal from the moment she walked in! Ace is very wary of new people, and he definitely could sense that she was a friend. I had never used Rover before, and she has answered all my questions and responded quickly to every message. I am so grateful that she was available when I moved into the neighborhood and started looking for someone to walk him when I’m stuck at the office. I was only expecting to come home to him safe and having gotten a potty break, but I get adorable pictures and nice comments on top of it. Definitely book Crystal, but not so much that she can’t fit Ace in...he’ll come looking for you!

About: I have been surrounded by dogs my whole life. I enjoy being active outdoors, all year round, and would love to bring your dog along for a run or hike. I have over 20 years experience handling all types and sizes of dogs. I’d be happy to discuss how to tailor the daily routine for your pup for maximum comfort and enjoyment.

Communication is key during your time away and I can provide daily texts and/or calls and emails with pictures and updates of how your pet(s) are doing. My goal is to allow you to be away from your pets with peace of mind and complete trust that your dog(s) are being taken care of at a high standard and in a loving and caring manner. Thank you I work M-F with a flex schedule. I’m in the office 2-3 days a week and then WFH the rest of the week. Depending on your dogs needs, I can rearrange my schedule to suit your dog! I will keep your space clean and spotless. I will follow all your rules and work to build trust with you and your pet(s). Please let me know things like crate schedule (if you have one), furniture rules, potty schedule, etc.

About: I’m a biology major in college moving towards a degree that will help me spend my life working with animals. I’ve pet sat for family, friends, neighbors, and strangers regularly ever since I was old enough to. I’ve watched animals of all shapes and sizes, dogs being the most common. Anything your pet needs to have a fulfilling time, I’m willing to do. I can match your sweet pup’s energy and give them a calm, quiet time or a fun, energetic day. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet! I have experience administering oral medicine, insulin, and other medical services. Check out my cat-specific profile! I’m a full time college student and a part time nanny but, have no fear, my schedule allows plenty of time to give ample attention and love to your pets. Evenings, some afternoons, and weekends I’m completely free to dote on your fur babies. My top priority is always safety above all else. Your pet’s comfort, health, and safety are what matters to me. In your home, your pet will be kept in designated areas and I’ll keep them company and give them enriching, fun memories. On walks, your pet will always be kept on a leash. We’ll go at your pet’s pace and they’ll stay engaged, well exercised, and happy!

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and started helping care for family, friends, and neighbors’ pets when I was around 8 years old. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs with all kinds of personalities—from shy or reactive dogs to dogs that love everyone they meet. I’ve also looked after multiple dogs at the same time and am comfortable handling different energy levels and needs. I’ve cared for cats as well, including both territorial cats and super affectionate ones. I’m comfortable giving medication to cats and dogs and am always willing to learn about the needs of other animals. I genuinely love being around animals and treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. My schedule is pretty open and flexible right now. Open to: • Quick walk • Long adventure • A drop-in visit • Overnight care I can usually accommodate a variety of schedules. I care for pets in their own home so they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and keep their normal routine. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and lots of love while you’re away. I always take the time to learn each pet’s personality, habits, and needs so I can provide care that feels safe and stress-free for them.

About: My husband has taken care of dogs since he was 5. We adopted a cute bichon in 2022, and he is so friendly and adorable. We want to make him more friends. Please let me know if you need a dog sitter. We are flexible throughout the week and can have at least one of us at home. We have a dog park nearby, and we can walk your dog as much as you love to. We also have a cute doggo at home, and they can play with each other! We have a bichon that lives his best life as we are flexible with working remotely and regularly take him on walks around the parks. I have a bichon in a townhouse that is quiet and nice to walk around with the dogs. We have a small yard area and lots of greenery in the front.

I cannot recommend Laura highly enough. I used her for the last two weeks to walk my mom’s dog after moving my mom to a memory care facility. I needed fairly quick help and Laura pulled through. She was fantastic with the dog and is a super energetic and friendly person. Every time I got my text that she picked up the dog (which was always on time), it put a smile on my face and eased my mind. I had 100% confidence in Laura from day one! I can only think of amazing things about Laura and highly recommend her. Thank you so much Laura 🥰

Anne is truly the most amazing dog sitter we could ever ask for! She’s incredibly kind, super responsive, and always flexible with our unpredictable schedule—which makes our lives so much easier. Not only is she reliable, but she is always sure to share a ton of photos and videos of Finn having the absolute BEST time. This gives us so much peace of mind knowing he’s happy, safe, getting plenty of exercise and most importantly well loved. Anne goes above and beyond by working on trick training with him and even surprising him with new toys from time to time. And the cherry on top is that Finn gets playtime with her sweet dog Roxy, who Finn is completely obsessed with. Their little family helping us out has been so special. Thank you for all that you are Anne, Bryan and Roxy!

FAQs for Dog Walking - San Luis Rey

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in San Luis Rey on Rover is $26.75 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 7,552 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across San Luis Rey. 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 Luis Rey. 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 Luis Rey.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 Luis Rey. On Rover:

  • 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
