About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats, and have experience volunteering at a local cat sanctuary! I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs with medical conditions and can administer medications (including aerosols) if given instructions. Some experience with teaching basic commands (ex. sit, stay) to dogs. I’m a recent graduate looking to fill my summer with some extra joy! I love spending time with any and all animals, and would be happy to accommodate your scheduling needs. Currently available full time. Safety is my number one priority, whether in your home or out and about on a walk! I want to meet your needs, so that you and your pet(s) are happy, safe, and comfortable.
About: My very first job was caring for my neighbors' dogs and cats while they were away on vacation. I was just 10 years old, and I'm so grateful they trusted me with their pets. That experience not only taught me responsibility but also sparked a lifelong passion for pet sitting. I've always been a dog lover and grew up with two dogs in my home at all times. Over the years, I've cared for breeds including Akitas, Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs, and Entlebucher Mountain Dogs, giving me experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. One of my proudest accomplishments has been training my own dogs, Kona and Remy, starting when they were just 10 weeks old. That experience strengthened our bond and taught me the importance of consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement. I understand that every dog has unique needs, and I strive to provide the love, exercise, structure, and attention they deserve. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy, and cared for while you're away, giving you peace of mind that they're in good hands. I’m currently working part time so my schedule is flexible. I make my own hours so I can pet sit anytime of day and night. Your pets deserve the utmost amount of love and attention from their pet sitter even when you're not there. I will take care of your pets as if they are my own. If there’s specific instructions, I will absolutely make sure they are followed exactly how they should be.

About: I love dogs and I began taking care of them when I was about five. Since then I’ve always enjoyed walking and looking after my own dogs, my neighbors’ dogs, and my friends’ dogs. I’m currently doing a part time internship for the summer, so I have plenty of free time. I’m available on Mondays, Fridays, weekends, and after 5pm on Tuesdays to Thursdays. In a client’s home, I follow your dog’s normal routine, make sure they get fresh water, exercise, and attention, and keep your home secure and tidy. I send updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. If I’m caring for a dog in my home, I provide a safe, calm space, stick to your feeding and care instructions, and make sure they get plenty of walks and playtime.
“Wendy is fantastic! She is so nice, professional and was extremely flexible when we had to change our plans which was incredibly appreciated. When she first came to our apartment for a meet & greet she came with a folder she had put together herself which I was very impressed by (and shows she goes above and beyond). Our dog Nola instantly felt comfortable with Wendy and I could tell Wendy was someone we can trust. A few days after our meet & greet Wendy took Nola for a walk and Nola absolutely loved it! Wendy was also extremely communicative which I thought was really great. I was away at the time so it was so nice to get updates and I really appreciated how she kept me informed along the way. I plan to book again. 5 stars! :)”
About: I have taken care of dogs for most of life. Whether it was family dogs or friends dogs I have been trusted to walk, feed, and entertain many dogs. I am currently a full time student and will be continuing classes this fall. I am available during the week and the weekends to walk and watch dogs. I care for pets with love and respect. I can crate if that is an option or entertain and hang out with if needed or wanted.
About: I have been taking care of all kinds of animals since I can remember! I grew up on a farm and worked for other local farms, taking care of animals ranging from large dogs to barn cats. My own dogs are high-energy, intelligent breeds, including a Border Collie and an Australian Shepherd, that I have trained myself. I also had a beagle who had many medical problems that required extensive senior care. I am available and flexible anytime on Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays for pet care. I am less flexible on Saturday, Sunday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, but may have options if need be. To ensure a safe and trusting environment in my client's home, I will always be extremely attentive to the animal's needs, while having a fun, engaging time! I will also be sure to alert my client if anything is wrong or out of the norm for their pets.
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 13 (helped the neighbors walk theirs and care for them overnight). I'm very patient and caring when it comes to any canine. I'm currently a full-time student studying for a couple of IT certifications so I'm available at almost any time to help you with your pet care needs! I've cared for my pets in my home by making sure they're happy, healthy and cared for. Pets can be a lot to manage so help me help you.
About: I've been taking care of animals my whole life. As a child, wife, mom and teacher, I have taken care of and loved many animals over the years. I have experience with dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, frogs, turtles, birds, fish. As an educator, I have open availability during the summer. I'd love to show your pet some extra TLC during your workday to ease your mind! I have all of my security clearances as an educator. I hope this helps provide you with peace of mind when I come to take care of your pet.
“Tierney is great with our dogs! Molly and Bo are always glad to see her for their regular walks, and they always come back tired and happy. Great communicator, very punctual and responsible. Would definitely recommend!”
About: Growing up on a farm I was surrounded by all different types of animals at a young age and I am comfortable with almost any breed or type of animal! I’m home from college all summer so I have a lot of flexibility when it comes to my schedule. Whether you need early mornings or even late nights I’ve got you covered! I treat every pet I watch the same way I want people to treat my own pets; with respect and care! It’s important to me to make your pets comfortable and I will do everything I can to ensure this!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 7,906 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Stockton. 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 Stockton. 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 Stockton.
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 Stockton. On Rover:
- 89% 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.
