About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, growing up with both cats and dogs and developing a deep, natural connection with them. I cared for and trained my own dog for 15 years, and after his passing, I adopted a close friend’s dog, who I now love and care for as my own. My experience includes working with dogs of all ages and needs from energetic pups to senior dogs requiring extra patience and support. I’m comfortable administering medication, preparing specialized meals based on dietary needs, and ensuring each dog gets the right level of exercise, structure, and attention. I treat every dog as if they’re part of my family because I know that’s exactly what they are to you. I work from home therefore, your pup will have all my attention! Walks are done every three to four hours in a day. Food is given based on your scheduled requirements. Since I have a dog of my own your pup will have a partner to play with! There's a dog park near by for them to run and play in as well.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attentiveness I give every pet. I truly treat them like family and pay close attention to their comfort, behavior, and routine. I have experience caring for senior dogs, including those with mobility challenges or cognitive decline, and I’m comfortable assisting with medications, mobility support, and maintaining a calm environment. I’m also patient with puppies/younger pups and can reinforce basic commands to keep routines consistent. I can also care for cats, though do not have as much experiences with them compared to dogs. You can expect reliable communication, regular updates, and lots of love while you’re away. I have an extremely flexible schedule, so please let me know how I can best accommodate your needs! I am available 7 days a week from 10am - 10pm and can do later night check-ins (11pm-1am) if needed. I tailor my care based on each pet’s individual needs and routine. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their established schedule — including feeding, walks, medications, crate time (if used), and any special instructions. I prioritize keeping pets comfortable, minimizing stress, and maintaining the environment they’re used to. I also provide regular updates with photos so you feel connected and reassured while you’re away. I’m always happy to conduct a meet and greet beforehand to make sure it’s a great fit for everyone.

We feel incredibly lucky to have found Willow and Tina as our dog walkers. They are attentive, friendly, and truly understanding of what both we and our dog need. From the very beginning, they communicated with us so clearly and consistently, taking the time to really understand our instructions and preferences. It’s clear they genuinely care, and that level of attention gave us confidence right away. Since we live in an apartment, there are a few extra steps and details involved for walks, but they were more than happy to go through everything with us and make sure it all worked smoothly. They were patient, flexible, and always willing to do what it takes to make things easier for everyone. When they first met our dog, he loved them instantly, which meant so much to us. It’s not always easy to trust new people with your pet, but they made that transition feel effortless. From day one, they made our dog feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. When we both started jobs that required us to be back in the office, we were really worried about leaving our dog home alone for long periods of time. Willow and Tina completely took that stress away. They stepped in with so much care and professionalism, and now we don’t worry at all knowing our dog is in such good hands. They’ve also gone above and beyond in moments that really mattered. When our dog was sick, they took such thoughtful care of him and kept me updated throughout the day. Getting those updates while I was at work was incredibly comforting and reassuring. Our trust in them has grown so much over time, and we feel genuinely relieved and grateful every single day. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing our dog is not only being looked after, but truly cared for. Our family is so lucky to have found Willow and Tina, and we couldn’t recommend them more.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for cats and dogs of different breeds, ages, and temperaments. I currently own an F2 Savannah cat, one of the most active, intelligent, and demanding exotic breeds, which has sharpened my ability to read animal behavior, establish routines, and provide both mental and physical stimulation for high-energy pets. I'm comfortable administering medications, managing feeding schedules, and handling pets that require extra patience or attention. My experience with an exotic breed means I'm unfazed by strong personalities, and I naturally create calm, structured environments that help animals feel secure. I treat every animal in my care the way I treat my own, with consistency, attention, and genuine affection. My flexible workday allows me to be present and fully available throughout the day, ensuring pets in my care are never left alone for long periods. I maintain a clean, calm, and pet-safe environment at all times. Every animal in my care is supervised, secure, and treated with consistency, patience, and genuine attention.

About: Hi everyone! . Since childhood, we have always had different dogs at home. Back in my home country, I have a big family, and we always had both dogs and cats. Sometimes my friends also left their dogs with me, so I already have some experience. I truly love animals and always treat them with great care and attention. Currently, I’m not working, which means I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pet — whether it’s walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company. I personally enjoy walking every day, and there are beautiful parks near my home where your dog can have fun and stay active. My husband and I live alone, and we don’t have any pets or kids. I would be happy to take care of your pets. You can be sure your furry friend will be in good hands. For your peace of mind, I can regularly send photo and video updates.

Yaisa was awesome for walking Toko and Arya when I was away at work during the day! She showed up on time and would take them for a nice long walk through the neighborhood. My pups were surprisingly well behaved with her and I loved all the pictures she would send me! They always looked happier on days after she visited. I will definitely book again when I need someone to check in with them if I'm out on a day trip or any long work weeks.

Before booking please make sure your pets had their flea and tick medications and their rabies vaccine on time! I will ensuring that my services are tailored to each furry friend! I have been a huge animal lover since I was little! I had a dog that I grew up with, but sadly my baby passed away from a tumor when I was 9 years old. Since then I've been learning a lot about animals especially dogs because I want to become a vet later on and help more dogs with tumors and cancer! In the past two years, I've volunteered at several animal shelters, I have taken care of so many cats and dogs and from that, I learned a lot about how to take care and comfort cats and dogs! Besides that, I often help my neighbors, my parents' friends, and my friends with their pets. Additionally, my specialty includes taking care of chinchillas since I have had a chinchilla for 5 years! I work part-time so I have a flexible schedule! I am available to walk and play with your dog every day from 12 to 5 if you need a dog walker! If you are planning to let your pup stay overnight or multiple days please message me at least 2 days in advance! (I would not be able to sit any dogs that barks excessively, sorry:( ) I'll ensure your pet receives the utmost care and attention, creating a stress-free experience for both you and your pet, Looking forward to pampering your pup! Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priority in my home! With a spacious backyard, free of children and other dogs, your pet has plenty of room to play and explore. While I do have a chinchillas, I make sure that they are safely housed in separate rooms during your pet's visit to avoid any potential interactions. To keep in touch with you, I promise to provide regular video updates every 1-2 hours to ensure that you can witness your pet's happiness and well-being throughout their stay!

About: Hi! I'm new to Rover, however, I've loved animals all my life. And I understand how important it is to ensure your fur baby is cared for ❤️ I have my own pup, Cloud (my goober bear) and fish at home. My family also has cats, so I’m very familiar with all kinds of personalities. I’ve also volunteered at a horse ranch and helped care for chickens, and one day I’d love to have my own little farm + animal sanctuary 🐾 My biggest priority is making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and as close to their normal routine as possible like you never left. I really take the time to understand what matters most to you and your pet, so I can mirror that same love, energy, and care while you’re away. I’m very active, mindful, and intuitive (I’m also a yoga teacher), which helps me tune into animals and their nonverbal cues. Whether your pet wants playtime and adventures, or calm energy and space, I’m happy to meet them exactly where they are. I’ll treat your pet like my own with so much love, presence, and care 🐾❤️ With a flexible, part-time schedule as a yoga instructor, I’m able to offer consistent, attentive care and be fully present with your pet. I prioritize quality time, routine, and making sure they feel safe and at ease while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and attentive environment, follow routines closely, and ensure fresh food, water, and care at all times. I’m mindful, reliable, and treat your pet (and home) like my own

My dog, Ivy, and I did a meet and Greet with Sean and his dog. The dogs were happy to meet each other and walked well together. Sean and I had a nice chat; he really enjoys dogs and is capable of handling Ivy who is a large dog and pulls while on leash. I agreed to have Sean come the next day and take Ivy with his dog on a walk without me. Ivy was excited to see her new friends again and eagerly went with them. It was evening time and Ivy came home happy and tired and went to bed early. We look forward to having Sean walk Ivy again and perhaps have a doggy play date with his dog.

Cindy is fantastic! She met with me and my dog Ivy today and did an incredible job. Ivy is an 80lb puller, but Cindy handled her beautifully. She’s professional, kind, and seems to be great with large breeds. We only need occasional help and I’ll definitely be using her services again in the future! Since I was on the walk with them, she didn't send any photos but we did communicate about how the walk and interaction went overall.

Kayla is an exceptionally attentive provider of dog walking services on Rover. Affordable, helpful, reliable and communicative are the words that come to mind about Kayla. She came over to meet our pup, was able to handle some hiccups with Rover giving her the wrong address. Our dog Coco loved her. This morning - after the scheduled walks - Coco was waiting for Kayla to show up - out on our porch. She was sitting outside waiting for Kayla. I might consider Kayla for a regular daily visit now - she was that good.

Dog Walking FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Rover

If you’re searching for a Santa Teresa dog walker for the first time, visit the dog walker’s profile and select the Contact button.

If you have an active request or have booked a service with a dog walker before, learn more about how to do this in the Rover app or on your computer.

Rover makes it easy to reach out to multiple dog walkers about your booking. Typically, dog walkers on Rover respond in under an hour.

Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in Santa Teresa.

You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:

  • Start and stop times
  • A map of their walk with total distance
  • Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
  • Cute photos and a personalized note

Yes! Dog walkers joining Rover must pass a background check before offering their services. You can also easily keep in touch with your dog walker through messages on Rover for delightful photo updates. The Rover team is available 24/7, and your dog walker has access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals. In the rare event of any issues during a booking, rest easy knowing your dog is covered by the Rover Guarantee reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care.

Note: If your dog walker requested to cancel this booking, then they need to cancel from their account. Please contact them via Rover Messages.

We get it—sometimes plans change and you may need to cancel your dog walking service. You can cancel an upcoming booking directly from the Rover app or your computer, in accordance with your dog walker’s cancellation policy.
