About: I have taken care of pets all my life and I love animals. I hold a special place in my heart for seniors. I have fostered several senior Golden Retrievers over the years and I can’t resist those frosted faces. Making your pet feel safe and happy while you are away is my main goal. I can make myself available for house/pet sitting at your home overnight, sticking to your established routine and making sure everyone is happy. I love getting to know each family and I’m happy when we bond. I believe when a pet parent is away it’s important to keep pets on their normal routine, or as close to that as possible so they feel safe and happy with me. I keep pets on leash anytime they are outside, unless they are in their own yard- then I keep a watchful eye out. Your pets safety is important, and my safety is too. Please let me know ahead of time if there will be people in the house with me overnight, I will need to meet them ahead of time. Also please let me know where cameras are in the house for my privacy. I book clients that are upfront and honest, patient and easygoing. Please no drama, no snooping neighbors, no surprise visitors or surprise roommates. I absolutely will not tolerate dishonesty and/or unkindness.

About: I grew up with and cared for all kinds of pets, even farm animals! I currently have 3 cats and 2 puppies. I've also cared for pets in clients homes as a caregiver. I'm currently doing school online so I have a lot of free time to hang out with your fur baby and a flexible schedule for consistency. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routines, and needs. Whether that means long walks, playtime, cuddles, or quiet companionship, I adjust my care to what makes your pet happiest. I closely follow all care instructions, including feeding, walks, medications, and any special needs. Communication is key so of course you'll be getting updates and some cute pics of your babies.

About: I love animals. All my life I have had at least one dog growing up. I have my own mixed Australian Shepard who I love very much. I got her during the pandemic as a puppy and completely trained her on my own. I am currently studying for the law school entrance exam. I have a flexible schedule so I can drop by as needed and have my own transportation. Please do not hesitate to get to know me and consider me to take care of your best friend. I am currently only focused on studying and have a completely flexible schedule. I like to maintain an organized schedule and keep my appointments in an agenda to ensure I am on top of my pending appointments. I make sure to keep a clean environment for my clients and their pets. I also respect the dog’s space, as some pets may be hesitant in trusting strangers at first, and slowly building their trust. Most importantly, as a dog owner, I understand the stress of leaving their fur baby with a sitter. I try to alleviate this stress by send updates and pictures to the client to reassure their pet’s well-being.

Bethany did a great job taking care of our dog, Mia. She arrived everyday, twice a day on time. She posted when Mia’s walks started and ended. She sent multiple pictures and videos so we knew Mia was OK. I will definitely recommend Bethany and we will be rebooking with her when we need a dog walker.

About: I’ve loved and taken care of dogs since I was a child myself! From Pomeranians, to terriers, to huskies, I enjoy caring for them all. Your dogs will love hanging with me and going for walks. I have a very quiet, stress-free home (just me and my husband) which will especially be great for dogs that are sensitive to loud noises. I will do all I can to make sure they are treated like family and feel comfortable with me. I’m currently off work for the Summer as I am employed in a school district. I don’t go back until late August so I have pretty open availability aside from some events here and there over the Summer. Whether you need overnight care or just a couple hours of day sitting, I’d be happy to help. I have a one bedroom apartment with pretty open space. It’s just me and my husband (who works until 5pm). We’re in a neighborhood where I can safely take your dog for walks or outside to use the restroom. We do not have a fenced yard… but there is a grassy area for your pets to use the restroom right outside.

About: I absolutely love animals, especially dogs and cats, and have dedicated 17 years to caring for them. My experience includes working at various pet hotels, where I provided loving, attentive care. Animals bring me joy, and I’m passionate about ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well-cared for every day. My pup that I had for 16 years passed in March 2024 and I can’t find the heart to get another pet of my own, but I would love to help others take care of theirs. I work from home and I’m very flexible. I also have reliable transportation, it is also a large vehicle so I am able to transport large dogs/pet equipment I have a very large property that is fully enclosed and double gated… The front gate facing the street is an iron 6 foot gate.

About: Hello! My name is Layla and I am currently a full-time college student with extra time on my hands, my schedule can be extremely flexible on the days that I am available. I feel being a pet sitter suits me because a. I love animals, b. I’m very attentive and organized, and c. Earning a wage by hanging out/taking care of your fur babies sounds like a dream! I currently have two big dogs and one cat that I care for almost every day. I take the dogs for walks, play fetch with them, and take them out to go potty. I love spoiling my cat with new stimulating toys, cat trees, and lots of cuddles 🥰 I’m currently a full-time student with some spare time, a part-time job seems too much for me to handle while also engaging in school. I adore animals and it would be amazing to earn money while spending time and caring for them 🥲 A list offered of how you want me to care for your pet is preferred. I understand pets can have different quirks and I’m totally adaptable to anything that’s thrown at me. I love animals and their unique personalities! I’d like to follow your routine to care for your animal, just like you never left!

About: Animals have always been family in my home. I had a Terrier who I cared for throughout every stage of life into their elderly years, which gave me experience with senior dog care, patience, and understanding changing needs as dogs age. I’ve also spent a lot of time around other family dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and anxiety needs. I understand that every dog has their own temperament and comfort level, and I make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for like part of the family. Whether a dog is playful and energetic or shy and anxious, I’m patient, attentive, and focused on creating a calm environment where they can feel comfortable. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home, so I am almost always home with the dogs. I absolutely love dogs and enjoy giving them attention and affection. My home is very family-oriented, and pets are treated like part of the family. I will be the primary caregiver at all times but there will be tons of love from my family as well. I have a fully enclosed fenced backyard where dogs can safely play, run around, and get fresh air. I also enjoy taking dogs on walks around Uptown or to local parks for exercise, stimulation, and fun. Since I spend most of my time at home, I am able to provide consistent care, potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, and a calm, loving environment where dogs can feel comfortable and cared for. I provide loving, attentive care for pets both in my home and in my clients’ homes. Since I work from home with a flexible schedule, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, walks, and companionship throughout the day. In my home, pets are treated like family and have a safe, comfortable environment with access to our fully enclosed fenced backyard for exercise and outdoor time. I make sure every dog feels comfortable, secure, and cared for based on their individual personality and needs. I’m available for dog walks, drop-in visits, dog sitting, and boarding. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, anxious, or a senior needing extra patience, I focus on creating a calm, caring experience and keeping pet parents updated for peace of mind.

About: Hello, new friends!!!! I don’t just watch pets I genuinely care for them like they’re my own. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and comfort level so they feel safe, relaxed, and happy while you’re away. I’m patient and attentive with puppies, helping reinforce basic training, potty routines, leash manners, and positive behaviors. I understand how important consistency is at that stage, and I’m happy to follow (or support) your training preferences. I also have a gentle, calm approach with senior pets, including those who need slower walks, extra reassurance, medication administration, or special care. I pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, or mobility and keep owners fully updated. Communication is a big priority for me you’ll receive regular updates, photos, and notes so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Above all, I aim to create a low-stress, loving environment where your pet feels secure, respected, and cared for every step of the way. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I’m home most of the time, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. I’m able to keep a close eye on feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and rest, rather than leaving pets alone for long stretches. Because of this flexibility, weekend boarding is my specialty. I love having pets stay with me over the weekend where they can enjoy a calm, comfortable environment, plenty of companionship, and a routine that feels like home. Whether it’s extra playtime, relaxed lounging, or sticking closely to your pet’s usual schedule, I’m able to adjust my days around their needs. Being home allows me to provide a more hands-on, reliable experience so pets feel safe, cared for, and never rushed. 🐾 When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and relaxed environment where they can truly feel at home. I have a large, fully fenced yard, which allows for frequent outdoor time and safe play. Pets receive potty breaks about every hour, along with regular exercise and supervised yard time to keep them happy and active. Inside my home, pets are free to roam and settle wherever they feel most comfortable whether that’s lounging, playing, or relaxing nearby. I follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walk preferences, and any special instructions, to help reduce stress. My goal is to give pets plenty of attention, movement, and care throughout the day while making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and treated like part of the family. 🐾

About: I've taken care of many breeds of dogs since I was 8. I've been told by friends and family that I am reliable when it comes to bathing, walking and playing around the pups. I'm currently working a part-time job with it being extremely flexible. So my schedule will be fitted around my availability around it. Aside from that, my availability would be typically In the mornings-mid afternoon as well as weekends. Just give me a message and we can go from there! If I were to care for pets in my home or someone else's, I would make sure to keep chocking hazards out of sight. As well as foods that could potentially be dangerous to said pets. If there were certain rules to follow, I would follow. I would also keep in contact with clients for any updates on their pets. If I were also to be in a clients home, I would make sure I'm not doing anything I'm not suppose to be doing other than take care of their animals

About: In the past, my dogs have had many health issues which means I had to give them the most attention and care. I have had big and small dogs that require lots of walks, feeding, and medicine. I go to school in Costa Mesa in the morning/day and I have rehearsal for theater at night. This leaves me with lots of time in between and I don’t want to drive home and back in that time because I live a bit far. I usually spend my time walking anyways. When watching over a dog on a walk or in the house, I make sure they are enjoying my company because I am a guest to them. I made sure they are safe at all times and are given attention and unconditional love. I like to stay on the pets normal schedule so that they like me and want to be my friend.

FAQs for Dog Walking - South Whittier

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in South Whittier on Rover is $27.75 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 22,450 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across South Whittier. 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 Whittier. 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 Whittier.

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 Whittier. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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 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.
