“You will never regret hiring, Arlene. Your pet will feel like they are being cared for by their own and may even want to stay with her. Arlene has been our dog walker and caregiver since 2019. She's the best we have ever had and this is coming from a previous dog sitter.”

“Asja did great with Lincoln. We could tell when we got home that he had a good long walk and he was very happy and relaxed for us for the evening. He is a big dog so to know he was taken care of so well is such a gift! Thank you!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats, as well as other animals like horses, otters, and seals! I love caring for and ensuring the well-being of all animals, regardless of size or breed. I am a marine biologist currently applying for graduate programs and have lots of availability! I spend lots of time working or walking which either cats or dogs would fit perfectly. I like to take notes and ask questions to ensure all logistics are taken care of when in a clients home. I prefer meet and greets prior to booking to make sure me and your fur baby are compatible as well as become familiar with the home.

About: I’ve been caring for pets since college, starting with dog walking, house sitting, and providing care. I have experience with puppies, including basic training and helping them establish good routines, as well as caring for senior dogs who may need extra attention or medication. I’ve worked with dogs of different ages, personalities, and temperaments, and I’m comfortable adapting my care to each dog’s individual needs. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. * I have children in the home, so I can only accept dogs that are friendly and safe around kids Being a stay a home mom, I am able to provide continuous care for your pet! Whether it be early morning walks, middle of the day potty breaks, or late night play time; I’m ready to provide loving care to your pets while you’re away. I have a small fenced in back yard and access to a larger fenced dog park, plus our neighborhood is perfect walks! If caring for your pet in their home, no need to worry about a thing! I have the ability to come over at any point during the day and am confident that they will be comfortable and happy!

About: Hello, my name is Sonia! I have worked with various organizations throughout Monterey County, where I received training in animal behavior and boarding. Over the past five years, I’ve gained valuable experience creating daily routines that help animals feel comfortable and cared for. I am currently a volunteer at the SPCA clinic as a vet assistant, and help at the cat and dog adoption center. I have also worked at a local veterinary clinic and am now a full-time Rover sitter! I am CPR certified and comfortable administering both oral medications and injections. During my time on Rover, I’ve had the pleasure of meeting so many wonderful pets and building great relationships with both them and their owners. I love sending daily photos and updates so pet parents can feel at ease while they’re away. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns—I’m always happy to help. Thank you! :) P.S. My pup Tommy does not accompany me to visits or house sittings, so no worries if your pet prefers to be the only animal in the home. :) Hello, welcome to my page! A little about me: I have a degree in Molecular Biology from California State University, Monterey Bay (CSUMB) and am currently pursuing a degree in Diagnostic Medical Sonography. My school schedule is Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 6:00 AM to 1:00 PM. Outside of those hours, I have flexible availability, including Tuesdays, Thursdays, weekends, and most afternoons and evenings. I’m available for house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walks. I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine, so I always like to schedule a meet-and-greet beforehand. It gives us a chance to make sure everyone feels comfortable and helps me provide the best care possible for your furry family member. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I have 9 years of previous experience with boarding animals and work well with sticking to the specifics of every pet's needs. I have experience with all different breeds, including those requiring extra medical attention. I am trained in administering injections as well. I can also care for reptiles, birds, and any other pet in the household.

About: I started off my Rover journey in Seattle for a few years until COVID hit, and continued to watch pets offline for military families while living in Japan for the past 5 years. Now that I’m back in the US, I’m eager to start up my Rover services again! I am mostly experienced with small-medium dogs, with breeds like terriers, poodles, chihuahuas, corgis, and shelties. I grew up caring for hamsters and parakeets, and started getting more involved with dogs and cats in university as I volunteered with local shelters and rescues. I’ve raised 2 dogs of my own, and also took in a stray kitten for a few weeks until finding a permanent home for her. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages, but more recently I’ve learned a lot about caring for senior dogs as my own dog has entered the geriatric age and needs more patience and empathy. If you have a senior dog that needs special attention, I’m happy to accommodate their needs so you can have peace of mind that your pup is being cared for while you’re away. I’m currently in between jobs so I have plenty of flexibility during the week to drop by your home for some play time and exercise! I respect that every dog has individual needs. Whether they need extra time to warm up or want space from other walkers when out and about, I will learn and your pet’s preferences and advocate for them in public spaces to ensure they are safe and comfortable.

About: I am new to Rover, but dogs and cats have been central to my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, our home was a rotating little zoo — chicks, turtles, bunnies — but the loves of my life had four legs and fur. The first was Zhuzhu/Piggie, a Samoyed boy I got in middle school. If you know Samoyeds, you know: that cloud-like floof, that signature angel smile. I watched him grow from a tiny pup into a majestic, hefty pillow, and walked him through every kind of weather without a second thought. Then there are my two cats back at my parents' place. Bread — a white cat my sister rescued on a snack run when she found her shivering and stray on the street. She went out for bread and came home with something much better. And Xiaoxiao, an orange tabby my mom adopted — named "little" because he was the runt of the litter, though I suspect he's made up for it since. By luck, my husband and I had the opportunity to home a rescue cat, a tiny apricot baby only few weeks old, in early May 2026, and I have loved Mila like I had birthed him. I made milk formula for him 6 in the morning, fussed over his digestion and stool, took him to the vet multiple times, shopped products for him with the utmost meticulous manner. I know what your pet means to you. Your dog or cat won't just be in safe hands. They'll be fussed over, admired, and genuinely cherished. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your baby pet! I'm available for boarding, dog sitting/walking, cat sitting on weekends and weekdays before 4:30 pm. Due to my current living situation, I offer care in your home rather than mine, which honestly works out better for your cat anyway. Cats are creatures of habit and comfort, and staying in their own space, with their own smells, their own window perches and hiding spots, makes for a much less stressful experience than an unfamiliar environment. When I visit, I'll follow your routines to the letter — feeding schedules, litter scooping, fresh water, any medications or special instructions. I'm a respectful, tidy guest, and I'll leave your home exactly as I found it. My job is simple: keep your cat happy, safe, and well-loved until you're back.

About: Being a previous doggie owner who I raised from puppyhood, I have experience taking care of dogs at all stages of life, and of all breeds and sizes. I also have experience taking care of livestock, I owned a horse, and have lived on a goat and chicken farm. I connect very much with animals of all kinds and am happy to give them love, nourishment, exercise and comfort. I am unable to have a doggie or kittie of my own right now so having the honor of caring for your furry family member gives my life meaning and enrichment <3 I am going to school currently online through a college out of San Fransisco. The rest of the time I have free to spend with your animal and take care of your home! I like to wake up early and go for a walk and have plenty of time between study sessions to go on walks and care for your pet. I will give regular walks, feed at the same time each day and offer a lot of cuddles and support. I know sometimes animals can feel anxious when their person is away..being a previous dog owner I understand that and I will treat your pet with the upmost consideration for their feelings and do everything to help them relax while their people. :)

About: I am an experienced animal caretaker for pets with a wide range of needs. I had my own cat that later in life needed subcutaneous fluids, pills, and shots so I am experienced with the trickery of loving care while an animal is in a difficult situation. I have had my own high energy dog who needed a high level of engagement for the first six years of her life while also training through leash reactivity and fear behaviors. With clients I take care to listen to what will make the pet happy and the human(s) happy. My goal is that the guardian will rest assured when your pet is in my care. I am freelancing so I can offer a flexible schedule for your pet care needs. My own dog gets and early morning walk then an afternoon as adventure. She's happy to be flexible for my gigs and open to sharing if that's an option for you once I know your dog well. I have a number of local spots where I enjoy visiting. This area is rich with places to sniff and explore and I look forward to doing so with your pet! I have the option of a crate and personal room for your pet to stay with all the amenities for fun safe pet time

About: I grew up around animals, working on my grandparents’ ranch and helping to care for horses, cows, sheep, chickens, ducks, cats, and dogs. I’ve always found working with animals to come quite naturally for me. I first began pet sitting during high school, and in recent years I’ve fostered for local rescue organizations, taking care of and helping to socialize dogs who are up for adoption. My husband and I adopted our own rescue, Leroy, in February 2020 and are so grateful we did! I work from home during the week, and enjoy breaking up my workday with nature walks. Leroy and I love spending time with other dogs, and especially enjoy taking them with us to explore our beautiful neighborhood! I tend to talk often to Leroy and the dogs I’m caring for, and treat them more like little humans. The dogs I grew up with were treated like members of the family, and I’ll treat your dog with the same kindness and respect. Since I work from home, my schedule is flexible and adaptable depending on the needs of the animal I’m caring for. We have a big, grassy, fully-fenced yard and a doggy door for pups to enjoy indoor/outdoor access as they please. As an example of my routine for my own dog (and when I have furry guests!), I usually take Leroy for a morning walk, a lunchtime walk, and a hike or beach walk in the afternoon/early evening, plus a short potty walk after dinner. I prefer to visit for a meet-and-greet before scheduling any bookings, so that I can get to know you and your pet. I only board or provide doggy day care for dogs who get along well with other dogs, as they will be spending their time with my dog Leroy as well. I like to have an in-depth understanding of their typical daily schedule, so that I can stick to it closely during our time together. My goal is for your pet to be as comfortable and stress-free as possible, which to me means sticking to their usual routine and activities. I will follow your directions to a tee, and be in contact with updates regularly to keep you informed. If I'm house sitting, dog walking, or doing drop ins, I am happy to care for non-social pups as well. I'll treat your space with the utmost care and respect.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Seaside

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Seaside on Rover is $28 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $34 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 1,254 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Seaside. 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 Seaside. 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 Seaside 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 Seaside. On Rover:

  • 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 99% 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 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.
