About: As a dependable and detail-oriented professional, I bring a calm, nurturing energy and a high level of responsibility to pet sitting. My background has instilled in me a deep respect for routines, cleanliness, and clear communication—meaning your home will be kept immaculate, and your pets will receive their meals, medications, and exercise exactly on schedule. Above all, I am genuinely attentive to animal behavior, ensuring your dogs or cats feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you are away. I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own, giving you complete peace of mind. Because I have a completely flexible, open schedule, I am available all day to dedicate my full attention to your pets. Unlike sitters who rush out for standard 9-to-5 jobs, my day revolves entirely around your animal's needs. This means I am consistently on hand to provide frequent bathroom breaks, maintain precise feeding and medication schedules, and offer plenty of daytime companionship and play. Your pets won't have to spend long hours waiting alone, giving them a stress-free, comfortable routine and giving you total peace of mind throughout the day. Because I am available throughout the entire day, I can dedicate my full attention to maintaining your pet's exact daily routine right in the comfort of their own home. I strictly adhere to their familiar schedules for feeding, exercise, and medication so they experience zero disruption while you are away. Additionally, I keep a detailed, daily log of their activities, meals, and behavior, keeping you fully connected and informed. With me, your pets receive constant, reliable companionship, and you get the total peace of mind that comes from knowing their day is structured, safe, and fully accounted for.

About: Hey! I’m Yokra but I go by Shira :) 🐾 I’ve always loved animals and have 7 years of experience caring for my own dogs, including two Chihuahuas and a Goldendoodle. I’m caring, responsible, and love giving pets plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone you trust, and I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. I’m excited to meet you and your furry family! 🤍 I work part-time from home, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention, care, and companionship they need. I’d love to spend my free time caring for animals and making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for just like they would at home. I keep up with their feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and any routines their owners provide. I also make sure they get plenty of attention and love, while keeping their environment clean and safe. I have two Chihuahuas and a Goldendoodle of my own, so I understand how important it is to treat every pet with patience, care, and lots of love. ❤️

About: I have worked as an office coordinator in a veterinary clinic when I was younger and have always had a extreme LOVE for animals. We have always had pets in our family and would love to show some love to yours, while bringing you peace of mind. I am not currently working, so very flexible when it comes to schedules. I can do a last minute pop in, if need be. Happy to help out in what ever manner you might need. We live in a townhouse, so if your fur baby is here, I will have them on a leash at all times. I love walking, so if they need lots of excersize, that is what I would do with them. We do have a dog and a cat in our home.

About: I’m that person who greets the dog before the human. 🐾 Whether it’s working on puppy manners, giving extra care to seniors, or long walks for high-energy pups, I tailor every visit to their personality. My goal is simple — happy, tired, and loved dogs (and totally stress-free owners). I'm currently working part-time, so I have a very flexible schedule to meet your and your pet's needs! Taking care of animals fits easily into my week; it’s something I truly enjoy doing, not just a task to check off. I look forward to my walks, feedings, and hangouts with each pet like they’re my own. I am very detail-oriented and excel in organization so whatever uncommon requests you have, count on me to follow them! Patience is a strong suit, as well as caution, to ensure your pet's safety is my number one priority.

About: After years of caring for pets, I’ve learned that every animal has their own personality, routine and needs. I grew up in a household of cats and dogs. (Can’t forget about the fish too!) I take the time to make sure your pet feels comfortable and understood. I am currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups!! I am available for dog-walks and drop-ins. I am flexible and reliable. I always like to make sure I familiarize myself with your dogs surroundings and his/her home. I make sure to carry basic milk bone treats with me, as this usually helps calm situations. You can expect clear communication, updates and plenty of photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing while you’re away.

About: I enjoy walking and playing, and all the animals I have had the pleasure of taking care of benefit from that. My bloodhound /lab up north had high anxiety and high energy when we took her in, and after a few weeks of long walks twice a day she calmed down. My jack Russel was also high strung until her walks and playing. I live close to a park and to a trail which I walk to daily. I live in a peaceful area and my back yard is a bird haven. I have plenty of time, room, and love for your pet. I have taken care of friends, neighbors, and relatives pets for many years up north, and now I am ready to be your pets friend in the south. My house is set up to have plenty of room for any size dog. We are always outside and I live very close to a park.

About: I have been involved with foster dogs for many years and managed health issues, resource guarding, and leash training. I am comfortable with the needs of senior pets and can lift my dog Lilly at 70+lbs to prevent joint damage. I also went through the potty training phases and am no stranger to frequent walks or surprise messes! Additionally I am familiar with basic training through positive reinforcement and meeting activity needs for many different breeds! I am a student with the whole summer off, so I’m able to pay around-the-clock attention to your pets. I’m up early in the morning for breakfast and walks and would love to spend time with your four legged friend. I live an active lifestyle so I am capable of providing exercise and playtime for energetic dogs! I’m also familiar with seniors and can relax with some older companions and assist with frequent potty breaks.

I understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable with the person caring for your dog. I will treat your pup like family, keep you updated while you are away, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for until you are back home.

About: I’ve been a dog owner of Cairns and Westies. We have a two year old German Shepherd. I just love the companionship of dogs. Love helping seniors with walking dogs or housesitting their pets for their trips away from home. I have recently moved from Colorado to Venice. I love walking dogs and caring for them. Weekend and overnight care is also available with some notice. As an owner of a German Shepherd I’m fully aware how difficult it can be to kennel your bff (pet). I love caring for pets as if they are my own. Give me a call and allow me the opportunity to take care of your pet dog. I will walk and feed your dog (s). Stay with them and play, pet and cuddle to ease any anxiety they may have in your absence.

FAQs for Dog Walking - South Venice

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in South Venice on Rover is $21.4 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 1,591 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across South Venice. 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 South Venice. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in South Venice.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 South Venice. On Rover:

  • 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 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.
