“I had a great experience with Mike. He really cares about doing a good job and clearly loves dogs. My dog was so excited to meet him to the point of craziness and he managed her over-excitement really well. We’re both looking forward to another visit!”
About: Hello I'm Linnea and I am a registered veterinary technician! As a graduate from Foothill College's Veterinary Technician Program, I have a passion for animals! I have been a dog owner since I was 10, have volunteered at the ASCPA and SPCA prior to the vet tech program, and have 13 years of pet care service experience. I work at a veterinary clinic as a registered vet tech and can certainly help take care of your loved ones if it fits around my schedule! I understand the signs and symptoms for respiratory distress, heat stroke, seizures, and many diseases, disorders, and toxicities. I am also CPR certified (both dog and human). I will be able to medicate dogs if needed as well. I can also trim nails and express anal glands for a fair charge as well! I’m currently working full time as a Registered Veterinary Technician and would love to walk dogs and do drop in visits on the side for some extra income Currently I am offering walks and drop in visits. Boarding does not work for me right now since I am working full time and my cat enjoys his own space
About: For 2 yrs, I was a volunteer for an animal shelter, Berkeley Humane, and took care of dogs & cats needs. I’ve also have plenty experience watching overs friends’ loved ones and had no problems at all. I’ve been and capable to watch, walk, play and make sure your loved one gets all the attention as if they were my own. I absolutely love dogs & cats. I’ve grown up with many pets before, and now I have a sweet, yet energetic of my own. I love to walk and I would love to get the opportunity to walk your dog. I’m currently a full-time artist at home. I’m almost home 24/7. I’m only gone for 2 hours to go to the gym. However, I do keep my dog inside the crate too so I would need your dog to be crate trained in case I need to leave the house. This provides a safety and peaceful nap-time for the babies so when I come back, we are all ready to play again! I’m very respectful and clean of one’s property and of my own. I follow instructions clearly and ask important questions needed to ensure I have all the correct info. All always update you and ensure your fur baby is happy & loved :)
“Oh my gosh!! When I tell you I had the best best best best experience with Aileen, I definitely did! She was outstanding with my little Lisa. I could just tell by all the photos and video updates I got of her while I was gone she was having a blast!!! She was definitely cared for like it was her own dog! Lisa was loved, cuddled, played, and well taken care of!! I wouldn't chose any other pet sitter then her! 1000000% would check her out! Loads and loads of photos and videos from the visit. Aileen does everything just like you so your doggy feels at home!! Lisa will definitely miss Aileen, and can't wait for her to go back when I need a sitter again!!!!”
“Anitra is very professional and took very good care of Nebula. This was my first time using Rover and she has made experience very easy and she works so well with busy schedules. I would absolutely recommend her to any new users.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 7. I grew up with dogs, took care of family and friends dogs. Currently I have 2 well behaved pups. I’ll have plenty of time available playing and taking care of your pups. I’m available for boarding on weekdays and weekends. We can’t wait to meet you! I have two friendly dogs to keep your pup company. I can easily create if needed. We love to meet new pups and are very welcoming.
About: About Jovelle: I’ve always loved animals and caring for them. I’ve taken care of multiple dogs and cats on different occasions; I love to walk, play, and give lots of care and attention to the animals that are trusted in my care. They are the best thing in this world, and I would treat your pets like family! About Jodie: I'm Jodie, Jovelle's sister, and I help out around the house with boarding and housesitting that Jovelle is unavailable for. We sometimes work together as a team to provide the best care for your pets! You can rest assured that your pets will be at the forefront of my mind when booking with me. I give all my attention to each gig I have! Every pet is different, with different personalities, temperaments, schedules, etc. Of course I would love to pet, play, and be around your fur baby most of the time, but a lot of animals have boundaries, and I would honor them. If you choose to have your pet stay with us, we have a huge, fenced backyard that is just waiting for pups to play around in. I live in a house with my animal-loving family. They are adverse to getting a pet of our own, but they don’t mind pet sitting at all.
About: I am 20 years old and I am a positive outgoing guy trying to earn some extra money on the side before I transfer to a university. I grew up with a family dog and every morning, I would take him to the dog park and let him socialize and play. We would play fetch all the time and my dad and I used to take him to the tennis courts. And he would essentially run around the court like a maniac trying to catch the ball while we were rallying. The most important thing you should know though is that I know how to let your dog have a great time, while at the same time, teach him obedience. I am also available mainly in the mornings.
About: Hello fellow animal lovers! 🐾 I spent about four wonderful years working at Joybound (formerly Tony La Russa’s Animal Rescue Foundation), where I cared for both cats and dogs—including those who were behaviorally “challenged.” From shy or undersocialized pets to those with high energy or reactivity, I created personalized behavior plans to help them feel more comfortable and confident in their environment. Working with animals has always been a true passion of mine, and I really miss that daily connection. I grew up in a family that always had dogs, and I raised my beloved black lab, Lily, for 12 amazing years. Over the years, I’ve also had many cats—two of my sweet senior cats passed away last year. Recently, I became a proud “foster failure” with a new kitten who has brought so much joy back into my home. During this last year, I’ve focused on pet sitting and helping friends and family with their animals. I currently work from home and can make time during the day for drop-in visits if you’re near Concord, CA. I’d love to help you! I truly love animals and want to support others who need trustworthy care for their pets. I know traveling or being away can be tough, but I’ll show your pets the same love and attention as if they were my own. At this time, I’m not offering overnight stays since I have my new kitten, but I’m happily available for drop-in visits and check-ins. Please don’t hesitate to reach out—I’d love to meet you and your furry family members! Anna Since I work from home, it’s easy for me to fit pet care into my daily routine. I start my mornings with walks or drop-in visits before work, and I often take a midday break to check in on nearby pets. I love having that time to get outside, give some love, and spend time with animals—it’s honestly one of the best parts of my day! Evenings and weekends are also flexible for me, so I can easily accommodate visits around my schedule. When caring for pets, I always treat them as if they were my own. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully to keep their routine consistent—whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or medication. I make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and comfort while you’re away. If I’m visiting for drop-ins, I spend quality time with each pet—checking food and water, cleaning litter boxes if needed, and giving them cuddles or playtime depending on their personality. I always prioritize their safety, happiness, and well-being, and I keep pet parents updated with photos and messages after each visit.

I am a remote employee and make my own schedule I can fit in walks or drops ins very easily walking and feeding schedules are based on the owners schedule and timeline I have been taking care of my own pets for over 20 years. Walking, cuddling, and taking care of your pet like it’s my own fur baby
About: I've spent more than 30 years caring for dogs and the past 6 years walking and pet sitting for families who trust me with their beloved pets. I have experience caring for senior dogs, dogs with cancer, and those who need medications or extra attention. I know every dog is unique, and my goal is always to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving owners peace of mind that their furry family member is in caring, capable hands. I am currently doing a variety of summer camps around the east bay. Fitting in walks before and after would definitely be my goal, as well as weekends. I have a fenced yard and 2 furry fluffy guys of my own, Georgie a labradoodle and Teddy an golden doodle to keep your furry friend company.
About: Being dog owners from a very young age, we have loved and cared for animals our entire life. We have a massive one acre property that is fully fenced and secure. This is the perfect spot for your furry family member to enjoy their little vacation! We work together to provide the best possible care for your pets while you are away. We want to make their stay an awesome experience for them. Our home is fully fenced and has beautiful and big garden. Your furry friend will be free to play around and explore the property. We also have a smaller fully enclosed doggy park in case any owners would like their dogs to have a smaller space or if any doggy wants to take a little break from playing.
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of different ages, personalities, and needs, including senior pets and pets who need a little extra patience and attention. I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, medication, potty breaks, and plenty of love and cuddles. I’ll keep you updated while you’re away so you can feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. My schedule is flexible, and I’m available for drop-in visits throughout the week. I can help with feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and giving your pets the attention they need while you’re away. I care for pets in their own homes, where they’re most comfortable. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and instructions, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and cleaning litter boxes. I’ll give your pets plenty of love and attention and make sure your home is secure before I leave.

My home is clean and cozy and I will take very good care of your pet while you are not with them.

I am very confident that your fur baby will love me and I will love and take great care of them. Lots of Hugs and snuggles coming your pets way. I am home everyday and would love to spoil your little fur baby while you are away We love to play and keep your pet company. I have a fenced in patio yard and lots of space to roam and play when going for a walk. I can also feed special diet if need be
“Sabrina put my mind to ease. I haven’t had a dog caretaker/ walker in a while and was hesitant to leave Angus with anyone new — thankful I took the leap of faith with Sabrina. Angus took to her pretty immediately; Sabrina is sweet, gentle and treated Angus with love. During his walk she gave me picture updates and gave me peace of mind that he was doing okay in my absence. I will definitely be using Sabrina again!”
About: I bring more than 20 years of professional experience in veterinary medicine and animal welfare, caring for pets and supporting the people who love them. My background includes veterinary hospital leadership and many years with the San Francisco SPCA, and I'm also Fear Free Certified. I have extensive experience with pets of all ages, personalities, and needs, including puppies, seniors, anxious or fearful pets, multi-pet households, medication routines, and pets who may need a little extra patience and attention. My Fear Free training helps me recognize signs of fear, anxiety, and stress and adjust my approach so each pet can feel as safe and comfortable as possible. My veterinary background also means I pay attention to the little things. I'm accustomed to noticing changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, energy, or overall wellbeing and communicating concerns promptly. Most importantly, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else's care. I'll treat your pets like they're my own, follow their routines closely, and make sure you get plenty of updates and photos while you're away. My schedule is currently very flexible, which gives me plenty of availability for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. I'm available weekdays and weekends and can accommodate morning, daytime, and evening visits. I also understand how important consistency is for pets, so I'll do my best to keep their normal feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime routines intact while you're away. With my experience in veterinary medicine and animal welfare and Fear Free certification, I'm very comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, behaviors, ages, and needs. When caring for pets in your home, I'll follow your instructions closely and treat your home with the same care and respect I'd want someone to show mine. I'll double-check doors, gates, leashes, and other safety details, keep your pet's environment clean, and provide updates and photos so you always know how things are going. I know you're trusting me with two things that matter enormously—your pet and your home—and I don't take either responsibility lightly.

The average cost of Dog Walking in Shore Acres is $21 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $34 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 Shore Acres. 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 Shore Acres 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 Shore Acres. On Rover:
- 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
