“My family and I highly recommend Alexis and Adam as dog walkers! They walked my two German Shepherd mixes early in the morning for 16 consecutive days for an hour each while we were on vacation. Always on time, always submitting report cards with photos and the route they walked. On top of that, my dogs, who are rescues with shyness or aggression toward strangers AND severe dog reactivity on walks, LOVED Lex and Adam! As a professional dog trainer and walker myself, I’m extremely careful with people who interact with my dogs, and Lex and Adam exceeded my expectations! It’s clear to me that they take caring for their clients’ dogs seriously and both are extremely nice and personable. Thank you Lex and Adam!!”

“Our neighbor has been a client of Annalisa for a while and gave her the strongest of recommendations. We needed an emergency sitter, and she came through! Top nothc and great with our pup!”

About: I am a dog-mom who loves caring for pets like they’re my own. I focus on keeping them comfortable, safe, and sticking to their normal routine. I also have experience with senior dogs and can give supplements or medications when needed. Additionally, I have experience with puppies too since I raised my fur baby since she was only 8 weeks old. I work part time, so I have several days off during the week to focus on pet care. I enjoy making animals part of my daily routine and giving them the time, attention, and care they deserve. Safety and comfort are important to me. I live in a condo with a balcony, so pets get regular supervised walks since there’s no yard. I do have a baby at home, so I’m very mindful about keeping the environment gentle, clean, and well supervised. In a client’s home, I follow your routine and make sure your pet feels safe and cared for.

About: I’ve had hands-on experience with animals my entire life, beginning with growing up surrounded by pets and later adopting my own dog at just 11 years old. From a young age, I’ve been pet sitting throughout my neighborhood, caring for animals of different personalities, routines, and needs. Over the years, this experience has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to make pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. My lifelong passion for animals once inspired me to pursue veterinary medicine before I discovered my interest in understanding the human mind, but my love for animals has never changed. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing attentive, loving, and dependable care you can trust. I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to prioritize pet care. I do not work, and I only attend college classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays for most of the day. Outside of those hours, I am fully available for drop-ins, walks, and sitting. I also have reliable transportation, so traveling to clients’ homes is never an issue. I’m committed to providing dependable, consistent care and making sure pets receive the time and attention they deserve. Creating a safe, calm, and trusting environment is my top priority when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. I follow all provided instructions closely, maintain consistent routines, and pay close attention to each pet’s comfort and behavior. I keep spaces clean, secure, and free of hazards, and I always make sure pets have access to fresh water, proper meals, and plenty of affection. I respect each pet’s boundaries and take the time to build trust at their pace, ensuring they feel relaxed, cared for, and safe at all times.
About: I'm very accustomed to all kinds of dogs! From pups to elderly dogs, small to large I'm the right guy for the job. I've raised all 3 of my dogs from puppies along with helping friends with theirs. I have tons of experience in cleaning and keeping them busy so I am more then happy to help with watching pups! I also have experience with elderly dogs that require medical treatment, as long as I get a detailed explanation on the steps to help I'll be able to follow them perfectly. I also live with very large dogs so I have all the experience with how to handle them no problem. I'm currently in College studying Mathematics. While I am still in the area I am a lot more busy on weekdays so as long as you are ok with me leaving for a little bit for classes then I'm down to help out. I have 2 very friendly dogs while my third is pretty territorial so while I can make sure your dogs are safe and acclimate them to the others, I feel it would be best to stay at your house.

About: Hi! I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 6 years, and honestly, I treat every pet like they’re mine. Not just fed and walked, but actually comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re gone. Every pet is different. Some dogs want to run and play the whole time, some want a slow sniffy walk. Some pets are shy and need to warm up first, that’s totally fine, I let them set the pace. I stick closely to your routine and instructions, because keeping things normal is what helps pets relax when you’re away. I also notice the little things, changes in mood, appetite, or energy, and I’ll always tell you about them. You’ll get photos and updates every visit, so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. Your pet’s in good hands. Can’t wait to meet them! 🐾 I have a very open and flexible schedule. I can easily work around your pet’s routine, whether that means early mornings, evenings, or multiple check-ins throughout the day. Since I’m not juggling a busy schedule right now, I’m able to spend more quality time with your pet instead of rushing in and out. If your pet wants playtime, company, or just someone to sit nearby while they do their own thing, I’m there for it. I’m very mindful of creating a calm and safe environment, especially since pets can be sensitive to changes. I make sure doors and windows are secure, feeding areas are clean, and everything stays consistent with what your pet is used to. I pay attention to behavior and give pets space when they need it, but I’m also happy to sit with them, play, or just exist in the same space if that’s what they prefer. Sometimes the best way to bond with a pet is to not try too hard. I treat your home with respect and follow your instructions closely so everything stays exactly how you like it.
“I am so thankful for Suzanne for doing such an awesome job walking my little buddy the last few days while I was at work. She is friendly and reliable and Bruin loves her. He was so happy when I came home at the end of the day on the days she walked him!”

About: Hi there! I’ve had my own dogs and cats my whole life and have done pet sitting for over 10 years. I am also well-versed in dog training and have worked extensively with cats at a pet resort. They call me the animal whisperer. 😋 I am a freelance photographer so my schedule is very flexible. I am available on weekdays and weekends and you can guarantee you’ll get some nice photos of your furry friend while you’re away. I have a senior cat at home so I don’t allow other pets at my home but I’m available for drop ins and walk dates no problem.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life — volunteering with rescues since I was 16, getting my first sport dog at 13, working as a vet tech, and now professionally grooming and training my own dogs. I’m certified in pet CPR and First Aid, and I’ve cared for everything from senior pets to high-energy working dogs. I share my home with three dogs (including Belgians and a sport-bred mix), a couple cats, and I regularly foster for local rescues. I’m also deeply involved in dog sports and behavior training, so I understand how to meet each dog’s unique physical and mental needs. Whether it’s basic care, playtime, or handling special medical or behavioral needs, your pets will be in knowledgeable, loving hands. I am off earlier than the average person, which leaves my afternoons, evenings, and weekends wide open for pet care. I’m an early riser and often up late, so I’m available for early morning drop-ins, evening walks, or bedtime check-ins depending on your pet’s routine. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s specific needs — whether that’s a midday potty break, evening playtime, or overnight care. Pet care is a big part of my daily life, and I make sure every animal in my care gets the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. Pet care fits naturally into my routine — it’s a big part of my daily life. I also welcome last-minute bookings whenever possible, because I know life doesn’t always go as planned! Whether it’s a weekend trip, a last-minute meeting, or just some extra help with your pet’s routine, I’m here to support you and your pets with reliable, loving care. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I prioritize creating a safe, structured, and low-stress environment where each animal can feel comfortable and secure. In your home, I do my best to keep your pet’s routine consistent — from feeding schedules to walks, playtime, medications, and preferred potty spots. I take time to learn each pet’s needs, personality, and boundaries, and I always leave things clean and exactly how I found them (if not better!). In my home, pets have access to a secure, pet-friendly space that’s both stimulating and safe. I have experience managing multi-pet households and carefully supervise all interactions. Whether your pet is social or prefers more one-on-one time, I’ll make sure they get the attention, enrichment, and care they need. I also send regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you always know your pet is happy, safe, and loved.

About: I’m a full-time teacher, and I do dog sitting as a second job (during breaks) because I truly enjoy it.I’m attentive, reliable, and very comfortable following routines and instructions. I love spending time with dogs, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m especially good at reading behavior, providing structure when needed, and giving plenty of attention and affection.

I’m a teacher, so I have a consistent schedule and plenty of availability before and after school, in the evenings, holiday breaks and on weekends. I enjoy spending my free time caring for pets and making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. I care for pets by following their usual routines and any instructions provided by the owner.

Jaidyn has been amazing with my dog Canelo! She’s super sweet, reliable, and always keeps me updated on how his walks go. She’s patient, attentive, and genuinely cares about his well-being. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing he’s in good hands while I’m at work. I highly recommend her! 💕

I desperately needed a dog walker for the day due to a last minute cancellation, and Jingchun was very quick to respond and was also very reliable too! She did an amazing job caring for my pup and provided a ton of pics and videos to ensure my pup was in good hands. I will definitely use her again & highly recommend her to everyone!

The average cost of Dog Walking in Santee is $17 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $10 and $32 per walk.

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 Santee. 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 Santee 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.

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.

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.
