“in short time, Adam has become a valued part of our family. I have an upcoming surgery and recovery, which means I can't walk our dog. Adam comes daily to take Maizy out (she knows his voice and comes running when he comes through the door). I can see us continuing with Adam regularly, as long as his schedule allows! Highly recommend!”

“This was mainly a meet and greet and we couldn't be happier with Jaren. HIs calming nature is a perfect fit for us and our dogs. We have an out of town wedding coming up in August and we will for sure be using Jaren to stay at our house with our pups as well as maybe take a little vacation before the wedding. We really enjoyed meeting and getting to know Jaren”

About: My husband and I have had taken care of dogs throughout our lives, but just got one of our own this past year. Kylo is an 3 year old goldendoodle and we love him! He loves playing with friends so we would love to take care of your loved pup as well! Your dog will be a member of our family and promise to make sure they leave tired and happy. We both work from home so are always available to take care of your pet. They will get our full attention and love while you are away. We have a fenced in yard and a park near by where we take many walks. Always on leash. Kylo is very friendly and gets along with most all dogs. We prefer them to be kenneled at night but we can accommodate your needs.
About: Our family has always had dogs, we love going out on walks and adventures, especially now that it’s summer time we’ll be able to spend the whole day home with them. My kids are older and have always been around dogs and love giving lots of belly rubs and treats if allowed. We know it's hard to leave a piece of your heart when you have to go and they cant come with you, so we would love to be the family that gives you peace of mind that your pet will be absolutely loved and taken care of until you can be with them again. Currently this summer we will always have someone home to make sure your fur-baby is taken very well care of. Lots of belly rubs, snuggles and adventures and your fur-baby’s safety with the heat is most important. Would be happy to let your pup sleep however is most comfortable for them. We also make sure to get them out every day whether it’s an early walk before the sun warms things up to much or a later evening adventure we’re happy to accommodate. And love a long walk in the evenings.
About: We first got our Aussie in 2020 (Ollie) and then we adopted a mini Aussie (Ana) in 2023. 😍 I’m a big fan of the breed…well all dogs actually 🤪 I grew up with a sweet pug that had quite a few health issues. It gave me a lot of experience and knowledge of caring for dog with extra concerns as well. I am a stay at home mom with little boys so we are almost always home and wanting to hang out with new doggie friends! We have a fenced backyard with plenty of room to run and play. Other dogs must be good with small children and dogs. We only except two dogs at a time (max), so rest assured we are not running a dog kennel and want to make sure your pup is getting the attention they deserve! Our Aussies are very protective of us so they can be very slow to warm up to other people - we usually our dogs in our room when your pup arrives so your dog has time to adjust.

About: I grew up with dogs and have been caring for other people’s pets since I was 12, building experience with a wide range of breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and keeping routines consistent to help pets feel safe and relaxed. My background in healthcare has strengthened my attention to detail, patience, and ability to stay calm in high-pressure situations, which translates directly into responsible pet care. I’m especially attentive to each animal’s unique needs, whether that means high-energy exercise, gentle care for shy pets, or extra patience with younger or older animals. I’m active, reliable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so your pet will get both quality care and plenty of attention. I currently work part-time as an ED medical scribe, and my schedule can vary with occasional night shifts. Because of this, I am typically available 3–5 days per week, with flexibility depending on my work schedule. I can adjust my availability with notice to accommodate consistent care or recurring bookings. I provide attentive, responsible care in a calm and structured environment where pets feel safe and comfortable. I follow each pet’s routine closely and prioritize consistency to minimize stress while their owners are away. I have experience with dogs of different energy levels and temperaments and am confident managing both active and relaxed pets. I can follow specific instructions closely, including crating if needed, and ensure pets are always supervised, safe, and well cared for.

About: With six years of experience in dog/house sitting and dog walking, I have cultivated a strong rapport with both pets and their owners. My journey began with a genuine love for animals and a commitment to providing them with the care and attention they deserve while their owners are away. Dog Walking: As a dog walker, I prioritize the physical and emotional well-being of each dog I care for. I understand the importance of regular exercise and socialization for dogs, and I tailor each walk to meet their individual needs. My approach includes: • Ensuring safety during walks by using appropriate leashes and harnesses. • Adapting routes to accommodate the dog’s energy level and preferences. • Providing companionship and engagement, making walks enjoyable and stimulating. House Sitting: In my role as a house sitter, I take on the responsibility of maintaining a safe and comfortable environment for pets and their homes. My services include: • Feeding, grooming, and administering medication as needed. • Maintaining daily routines to reduce stress for pets. • Keeping the home secure and tidy, including watering plants and collecting mail. • Regular updates for pet owners, ensuring peace of mind while they’re away. Commitment to Care: I am dedicated to fostering a loving and safe environment for pets in my care. My goal is to provide not only a service but also companionship, ensuring that each pet feels comfortable and valued during their owner’s absence. My experience allows me to handle various breeds and temperaments with confidence and care. Having 2 cats myself I dedicate myself daily to making sure they’re each happy and well cared for. Love playing with them and keeping them sharp! Stick to daily routines since animals tend to rely on schedules. Love to make sure everyone’s cared for as well as the space they live in.

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 Santa Clara. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.
