“Andrew did a great job walking our dog for a day while we were away! Very communicative and attentive, and gave great walk updates. It made us feel secure our dog was in good hands!”


“I had a wonderful experience with Jacquelyn. She was responsive and friendly in all our communication. She arrived at my home on time and sent me plenty of pictures of my dog during their walk. I would definitely recommend Jacquelyn and would hire her again in the future!”

About: Your pet's comfort and happiness are my top priority, and I believe the best way to achieve that is by keeping things as familiar as possible. I stick closely to your pet's normal routine - feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any medications - so they feel safe and at ease whether you are home or away. I am reliable, attentive, and genuinely patient with all kinds of personalities. Whether your pup is high-energy and needs plenty of activity or is a more laid-back companion who just wants some quiet company, I adapt to whatever makes your pet feel most comfortable. I have a special place in my heart for senior dogs and understand the extra care and patience they require. From managing medications and limited mobility to providing gentle companionship and a calm environment, I am experienced in making older dogs feel comfortable, loved, and well looked after. Communication is something I take seriously. I know how much you love your pet, and I never want you to wonder how they are doing. You can count on regular updates and photos throughout the day so you always have peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle. I am a freelancer who works from home with a flexible schedule, which means I am around the house throughout the day and can plan my entire routine around your pet's needs. When I am in your home, I follow your instructions carefully and treat your space and your pet with the utmost respect. My goal is simple - to make sure your furry family member feels loved, cared for, and right at home until you return. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. As a freelancer who works from home, I have the flexibility to structure my entire day around your pet's needs. Throughout the day I take regular breaks from work to check in, play, and spend quality time with any pets in my care. Your pet will never feel like an afterthought - they are always my priority. To give your pet the best possible care, I love learning as much about them as I can before we get started. Knowing their daily routine, energy level, feeding schedule, medications, and any special needs helps me make sure they feel right at home. I also like to understand their personality - how they interact with other dogs and people, any quirks or preferences, and what makes them feel safe and comfortable. The more I know about your pet, the better I can care for them the way you would
“Amy is always super sweet with our pups and communicates very well, especially when she spots anything out of the ordinary with the pups. Thanks for always taking good care of Mochi and Mimo 🥰”

About: I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely care about the animals I watch. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they’re safe and comfortable while in my care I have a senior dog of my own, so I’m very familiar with routines, medications, and taking things at an older pet’s pace. Over the years I’ve watched dogs, cats, turtles, birds, snakes, and just about anything else you can think of. I spent many years as a teacher, but recently made the decision to step into a slower pace of life. Now I’m available daily for pet visits or dogs walks. I love being able to give animals the calm, consistent attention they deserve. Right now I provide pet care (daily visits, walks etc) exclusively in my clients’ homes, allowing pets to stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I do not offer care in my own home.
About: For nearly two decades, my neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to care for their pets when they are away. I have extensive experience looking after dogs and cats of all ages and needs. Not only can I take your high-energy dog for a long walk or run, I will also slow things down to give your elderly pet the time and attention they need. I’m known for never refusing a belly rub and always loving your pets like my own. I am also happy to check up on aquarium dwellers (like my client who has goldfish!) I am a professional dancer and summer is the slow season, so I have flexible hours that can fit anyone’s busy day. I am available for daytime check-ins, walks, and daycare any day of the week. My schedule easily allows for pet pickups/drop offs and house sitting. I am home most of the day to keep your dog company. If I am out of the house it usually will only be for a couple hours and I have a very friendly dog who will comfort your dog in my absence. Because I am home most of the time, I can do exercise and potty breaks as frequently as you would like.
“Kyle is a great dog walker. He provided photos and updates on my pup. I trusted him to give my pup the best care, always looking out for his best interest. I highly recommend Kyle.”

About: Thanks for checking out my profile! Worried about your fur babies safety and care when your not home? Don’t worry I've been around dogs since I was a kid. I grew up around chihuahuas, huskies, pomeranian mixes, shiba inus, Korean Jindo dogs, cats, fishes, and more. Spending time with all of these breeds I have ample experience bathing, walking, and feeding our pets. Fun fact about me: I also graduated from UCSD with a B.S. in human biology and a minor in environmental systems. Two years ago, I adopted an adolescent 3 year old cat from a local shelter and have been caring for him ever since. He is a rambunctious kitty and I have learned fun and creative ways to get him to exercise and stay fairly fit. Just 7 months ago, I adopted my first personal dog, Luna a 1.5 year old puppy from Korea. Under my guidance and training, I've learned that she is incredibly talented and picks up tricks and skills so quickly. For example, I trained her to jump on rocks, benches, etc... on command, she can differentiate the differences between sit-pretty and stand on her hind legs. Basic commands like sit, down, stay, paw, spin, come, etc... I take her on multiple hour long walks every day, and would love the opportunity to spend time and dedicated care with your fur babies as well! I would love to dedicate my time to caring for your pets, either through long walks or pet check-ins, because they deserve to be well looked after while their parents are away from home. WHAT TO EXPECT: I will arrive 5-10 minutes early and get your dog ready for a walk. Your dog will get a full 30-minute (or 60-minute) walk. Then I'll drop your dog off at home, refill their water, and give any last-minute pets for 5 minutes. Rover cards and pictures will be shared once the walk is complete :D During the walk with your dog, I will always: 1. Ensure provided equipment and leashes are safe and secure to use (as well as bring my own in case of emergencies) 2. Ensure your dog's favorite treats are in my training pouch before the walk 3. Provide ample water for your pet during/after their walk 4. Scan and be observant of my surroundings to ensure your dog's safety 5. Cross the street to avoid any on-leash greetings or off-leash dogs During the pet (30-minute) check-ins with your pet, I will always: 1. Spend 5 minutes carefully entering your home and kindly greeting your pet with their favorite treat 2. Take them on a 10-minute potty break outside if needed 3. Spend 10 minutes playing with them inside your home 4. Spend the last 5 minutes giving any last-minute cuddles and love as I can More time will be spent loving your pet for a 60-minute check-in!

About: Back home in Atlanta, GA, I cared for our family's dogs that lived to ten and fifteen years old, with our youngest dog turning fourteen this year. From walks on the leash, to fenced yard time, to cleaning indoor accidents, every animal deserves the care needed to live a happy, healthy life. Now, residing in LA County, I'm on year two of taking care of my rescue kitty. She is friendly but can always be kept in a separate room for guests' comfort. I live in a quiet neighborhood with safe, walkable sidewalks and have an in-unit balcony for fresh air in between walks! As a professional actor & NBA dancer, my work schedule varies each week. I feel most grounded when I schedule daily walks or park time for myself and would love a furry companion to enjoy the fresh air with! In addition to the entertainment industry, I work a remote job that brings hip hop dance programming to youth in underserved communities. These flexible hours allow room for pet care at various hours throughout the day, so I may continue working towards my passions whilst ensuring the best care for your pet. In my home, I have an in-unit balcony that allows dogs to get fresh air in between walks. The large windows and cat hammock overlooking the balcony make for a great view as well. The unit has plenty of open space with no fragile items/furniture accessible to pets. Just outside of my apartment building is a quiet, walkable sidewalk for leashed walks.
“I was walking my dog Chase and ran into some neighbors that have had the pleasure of meeting Mike and only had great things to say about him!!! We really appreciate the time he spends with our dog. Thank you Mike 😎”

About: I’ve always had a genuine love for animals and enjoy giving them the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to make each visit feel safe, calm, and enjoyable. Whether it’s a good walk, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping your pet company, I’m dependable and attentive to their needs. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet is in caring, responsible hands while you’re away. Being retired gives me the flexibility to make pet care a meaningful part of my day. My schedule is open and flexible, which allows me to provide reliable, unhurried walks and drop-in visits throughout the day. I enjoy having a routine and getting out for walks, so spending time with pets is a perfect fit. I can give each pet the individual attention they need rather than rushing through a visit, and I’m happy to work with their usual feeding, walking, and care routines. When caring for pets in someone’s home, I treat both the pets and the home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I follow each pet’s routine and instructions carefully, making sure they have fresh water, attention, exercise, and plenty of affection. I’m also respectful of your home, keeping things clean and secure and making sure everything is as you left it. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust, and I take that responsibility seriously.
About: I grew up with animals, have cat and dog sat for friends for years. I also have experience with fish, lizards, snakes, frogs, etc. I always send pictures and make sure the details are right! Also my name is Alex - Rover won't let me change it ; ) Hi! My name is Alex. I am a writer and filmmaker with a flexible schedule and often work from home. Happy to stop by once or to build a longer dynamic with your pet and create a routine. I always make sure they are comfortable and happy and engaged. How varies depending on the pet! But I like to take it slow and make sure they are comfortable with me and know me.
About: Hi! I recently graduated from UCSB and have a very flexible schedule this summer before starting my full-time job. I’ve dog sat for family friends, and neighbors over the years and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I’ve cared for a Maltese for several weeks, looked after a German Shepherd, and watched other small and medium-sized dogs. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, going on walks, playing with dogs, and making sure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I always try to provide the same level of care and attention they receive at home. I’m also happy to send photo updates so you can feel confident that your pet is in good hands. I have a very flexible schedule and can provide care throughout the day, which means your dog will get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship. I’m available on weekdays and weekends and can easily adjust to your dog’s normal routine. Since I’m home most of the day, I can make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and never left alone for long periods of time. I live in a spacious townhouse with plenty of room for dogs to relax and move around comfortably. I also have a private porch where dogs can safely spend time outside and enjoy some fresh air. There is a coach outside for them to lay on. I understand that every dog has different needs and routines, so I always follow owner instructions carefully regarding feeding, walks, exercise, and any special care. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and at home while you’re away.
About: I have years of experience caring for pets and understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medications, litter box care, playtime, walks, and keeping pets comfortable and safe. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pets while you’re away. I’m patient, responsible, and happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind. I care for pets like they're my own — with patience, consistency, and a whole lot of love. I work full-time during the week, but I'm especially flexible on Tuesdays, Fridays, and weekends, and I'm happy to coordinate before/after-work visits to fit your pet's routine. I follow your instructions closely — including feeding, medications, walks, and daily routines — and I’m careful about keeping doors, gates, and other areas secure. I pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and will let you know right away if I notice anything unusual. You can also expect regular photo and video updates throughout the stay, so you always know your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
About: We're a family of four dog lovers who often take care of our neighbor's dog (and cats). We have one indoor cat who thinks he is a dog and plays with dogs and another indoor cat who likes to hide. We used to have a dog before, so we know how to train dog and teach dog tricks. We also have flexible work schedule and will not leave the dog alone for long time and will follow special instructions to meet your needs. We're doing this for fun and extra financial income to support kids' education. We live in a townhouse with a small enclosed patio area, therefore we only take dogs who are used to living indoors and are potty trained, we're very close to the Garfield Park, so we frequent the park unless we're told not to do long walks. Why I love dog sitting always a dog lover. We used to have a pit bull-lab mix and we are good at training dogs. About my yard very small patio in the front, with gate. My experience administering medication with instructions, sure. I work at home part time, so I have the flexibility to keep dogs company. I live close to the park and generally takes long walks daily. It depends on different dogs' needs. I often follow owner's instruction and try to keep the staying as close to as the dog's original home condition.
About: I've had many dogs growing up from a Chihuahua, Sharpei, Husky and now three of my own rescue mutts. Recently, I volunteered with a rescue in Agoura Hills bringing in dogs from Korea for a year, transporting them from LAX to an adoption center. Also, I have volunteered at the Pasadena Humane Society and North Central Shelter here in LA. Paying close attention to detail, I administered daily medication, fed a special diet (often cooking homemade meals) and had monthly vet visits for a senior dog all while taking care of my young toddler. Since I've been a full time mom, I have most weekdays free between school hours and some evenings. When I don't have to take my daughter to her weekly activities, I am also available weekends. I'm pretty flexible and could be available on short notice. I have 3 dogs who are all potty trained and do not need to be crated. I understand everybody has different needs and environments, which I am open to assisting. I strongly believe in mental and physical stimulation for pets and therefore can play with them, give toys, snuffle mats, fetch balls, go over basic commands and even give baths. Walks are ideal in their own neighborhood, or just letting them out in their yard if that's what they're use to. I am able to give treats, or food when needed and give medication. Most importantly, I want my pets to feel safe, given undivided attention, and loved.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - South Pasadena
Julien was absolutely wonderful with my little boy, Coco! I booked him four times, and from the very first walk, I knew Coco was in great hands. Julien was friendly, trustworthy, reliable, and so good with Coco. Coco can be VERY picky about who he likes, so the fact that he immediately took to Julien was a huge sign for me! It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Coco was happy and comfortable with him. I would absolutely book Julien again and again. He’s fantastic, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their fur baby! 🐾❤️

Helen is a dog walking rock star. We travel a fair amount, and knowing she has our pups is the reason we're not worrying the whole time we're gone. We come home to dogs who are calm, happy, and obviously well cared for, and that doesn't happen by accident — it's the exercise and the real attention she gives them. If you're looking for someone to trust with your dogs, it's Helen. AAA+++

This is me and my husband’s first time using Rover and with 2 dogs who can be reactive and have high energy, we had some reservations about picking a walker. Lauriane was very sweet and understanding of our dogs’ little quirks and the did great with her during our meet and greet and first walk together. She provided so many photos/videos which we really appreciated!! 10/10 recommend.

Jackie is incredible and soooo sweet and kind. She has been amazing with Leo and Juji! We absolutely love all the photos and videos she sends during the walk. It always give us peace of mind and make our day. It’s clear she genuinely cares about them, and they always come home happy and well-exercised. She’s reliable, communicative, and treats our pups like they’re her own. We highly recommend Jackie to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog walker!

Alejandro was fantastic with our dogs, Juji and Leo! He was reliable, communicative, and made us feel completely at ease while they were in his care. It was clear they were well looked after, and we really appreciated the updates and attention he gave them. We’re so grateful to have found someone we can trust, and we’re excited to book with Alejandro again in the future. Highly recommend!

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.
