Ready to give your furry friend a peaceful, happy stay? Letâs chat! Pet care is one of the best parts of my week. I keep my schedule flexible so I can give every dog calm, unrushed attentionâwhether thatâs a relaxed morning walk, a quiet afternoon cuddle session, or an overnight stay. Your pupâs comfort always comes first. I create a calm, low-stress space where pets feel safe and settled.

About: Iâve been around dogs and cats pretty much my whole life and have taken care of dogs for friends and family for years. Iâm really comfortable around different types of dogs and understand how to read their behavior and approach them in a calm, respectful way. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and always make sure they feel safe, cared for, and well looked after. Iâve always been around pets growing up, so caring for them feels like a natural part of my routine. While I donât currently have pets of my own, I regularly help friends and family by taking care of theirs. Whether itâs feeding, walking, or just spending time with them, I genuinely enjoy it and make it a consistent part of my daily and weekly schedule whenever the opportunity comes up. At the moment, Iâm not able to host animals at my place of residence. Iâm hoping that changes soon so I can incorporate pet care more into my daily routine, but for now Iâm happy to provide care in your home.
About: I have watched over pets since I was about 12 years old but I have watched over other pets since 2019. I have watched over fish, guinea pigs, cats, and of course dogs. I have now two dogs of my own. One twelve year old sassy senior and a one year old who still has puppy brain. While I am in college I find that I have time outside of my studies that I feel could be put to use working or helping. With specific information and instructions I can make sure your furry friend or friends are taken care of under my watch. If you also have specific information or instructions for your home I will be more than happy to accommodate those rules just let me know.
âMargarita was amazing!!! We went on vacation for a week and had her walk our dog twice a day. She kept us in the loop and provided us with picture, videos, on each walk which I loved. While we were away, our housesitter had to leave a couple of times, and Margarita was able to work with the information we gave her last minute and returned our dog safely inside the house. I would highly recommend Margarita!!!â

About: Iâve had the pleasure of caring for 2 dogs, Max & Layla that were unwanted and abandoned, both lived long and happy lives under my care, reaching ages 16 & 13. Sadly Max passed away in June of 2017 and Layla passed away in September of 2024 Iâm based in North Hollywood and available most afternoons and evenings. I currently work in the health and fitness industry, typically from 5:30am - 1:30pm. Showing up on time and providing excellent care is something I take pride in I spent 20 years taking care of dogs with special needs, I have a lot of experience in keeping both people and pets in a safe and happy environment. My last dog Layla was a troubled rescue from the Los Angeles Animal Shelter I was able to rehabilitate her and give her a wonderful life
âDeShaude took excellent care of our pup while we were gone and kept us updated to let us know how she was doing. It was the longest she'd been by herself so it was great to know she was being well looked after!â

About: Hi! I am an animal lover with a calm, grounding energy that pets instantly gravitate to. Iâve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and caring for them has always felt second nature. Iâve taken care of cats and dogs with all kinds of needs, including: * Pets with anxiety or nervous temperaments * Pets wearing cones * Administering oral medicines * Building trust with shy or older cats * Keeping energetic dogs stimulated * Maintaining routines for multi-pet households I genuinely love talking to animals and treating them like individuals â learning their quirks, their boundaries, and what makes them happy and relaxed. Iâm really big on communication, gentle handling, and creating a safe, reliable environment for your pet while youâre away. Your pet wonât just be watched â theyâll be cared for, respected, and given real attention. Pet care fits naturally and easily into my daily life. I work from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility to structure my day around your petâs needs. Whether your pet needs morning check-ins, mid-day walks, evening feedings, or multiple visits spread throughout the day, Iâm able to adjust my schedule and be there consistently. Because Iâm home most of the time, I can offer: * Flexible visit windows * Last-minute bookings when you need backup * Extra time with pets who need more attention or reassurance * Reliable routines that match your petâs normal schedule When Iâm caring for pets in a clientâs home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent and comfortable. I follow your instructions closelyâfeeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any specific rules your pet is used to. I adjust my approach to each animalâs personality, whether theyâre shy, energetic, or need a gentle, calming presence. I treat your home with respect, keep things clean, and make sure everything is left the way you prefer. Throughout the stay, I send clear updates and photos so you always feel connected and informed. My goal is to make your pet feel safe and cared for, and to give you the peace of mind that everything at home is in good hands while youâre away.
About: Iâve been around and cared for pets since I was young, and I understand that every cat has their own personality and comfort level. Iâm patient with shy or cautious cats and will give them the time and space they need to feel comfortable. Iâm happy to provide feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, companionship, and plenty of gentle attention. Iâll also keep you updated while youâre away so you can have peace of mind knowing your cat is safe and cared for. I also have experience caring for our Laila, our senior dog, so Iâm comfortable with older pets who may need a bit of extra patience, softness, and attention. Iâm a full-time homemaker, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your cat. Iâm available for drop-ins, house sitting, and regular visits, and I can give your cat plenty of attention, playtime, feeding, and companionship while youâre away. I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment where your cat can feel safe and comfortable. Iâm attentive to their routines, feeding instructions, litter box needs, and personality. Iâll treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect I would give my own. I also have experience caring for our beloved senior dog, Laila, so I understand the extra patience and gentle care older pets may need.
âI completely trust Annie with my pup pups. She is so out going and my pups are always spoiled. If your looking for an amazing person who will love your animals like they are hers, look no further! Annie is your person!â

About: Loving, Reliable & Personalized Care for Your Furry Family Members!

I care for pets by following their regular routines and providing plenty of attention, patience, and affection. I make sure they have fresh food and water, exercise, playtime, bathroom breaks, and a clean, comfortable environment. I also follow any special instructions from their owners, including medication schedules, grooming needs, and dietary requirements.

âMarcus is hands down the BEST CAREGIVER, for your pet. He went above and beyond for our dog Max. He took Max to the park, spent extra time, communicated regularly. Marcus treated Max as his own. I highly recommend Marcus and will request Marcus every time I travel!â

âChris is amazing with our rescue pitbull, sheâs always eager and excited to walk with him. Our dog has a history of being a bit stubborn on walks and reluctant to leave the house. With Chris she is always delighted to walk far. Iâm glad that we found him.â

âNaomi has been wonderful. We have a husky who is a big dog and loves her walk every single time they go on one. My pup comes back tired and ready for her nap. My second dog Freya is super skeptical of humans and other dogs but Naomi was super easy to introduce and Freya took an immediate liking to her! So glad to have you be able to walk them and they love their adventure each time.â

About: I bring a balanced approach to pet care that combines a love for high-energy breeds with the patience required for smaller, more sensitive dogs. My experience allows me to adapt my style to the specific temperament of each animal, ensuring they feel secure and stimulated while you are away. My expertise includes: Puppy training, focusing on positive reinforcement to build good habits and confidence from the start. Handling large, powerful breeds like Rottweilers, with a focus on structured walks, boundary setting, and managing strength with confidence. Caring for small breeds like Poodles, providing the gentle attention, grooming maintenance, and mental engagement they crave. Managing multi-dog households where different sizes and energy levels must coexist harmoniously. Pet care is the primary focus of my schedule, and I organize my day around the natural rhythms of the animals in my charge. I prioritize a consistent routine because pets thrive on predictability, which reduces their anxiety and keeps them well-behaved. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is maintaining the existing environment and rules you have established. I recognize that pets are most comfortable in their own space, so I follow your specific routines for feeding, walking, and sleeping to minimize stress. I treat your home with complete respect, ensuring everything is kept clean and secure.
About: For House Sitting- it's an honor to be privileged with that kind of trust of your lived one and things. Id defend both with my life. Can totes give baths for extra! Hell, Id even do your dishes lol Drop-Ins- who doesn't love a play date to let them know they havent been abandoned lol It's proven they have no sense of time, but built up habits make for happy babies! Play, feeds, walks (if needed) and allllll the cuddles and pets. Walks- great for theirs and mine mental and physical health. Able to stay attentive and in control, even with the temptiest of mail persons or squirrels that'd cross our path! Animals appreciate and sense true vulnerability, it leads to belly rubs! Win win! My schedule is completely open, as I was recently laid off. Just give me as much time as possible for a heads up for any bookings or requested changes. I like to do meet and greets before establishing care, if possible. Your pet atleast knowing my scent is crucial to building a friendship with them.
About: After running a Safari for many years and also working offsite to take care of animals, I can say that I have a vast amount of experience with whatever your pet can bring. I also fully understand that every pet is unique and what care must be provided. I am very open to working multiple days a week and at different times and should I have anything that gets in the way it will be communicated way ahead of schedule. If you require a pet to stay with me, know that I only have a one bedroom apartment however I have a very nice neighborhood to walk them around in. I keep my apartment clean and tidy.

About: Caring for pets was one of the first responsibilities I ever learned. Whether itâs been on the east coast or west coast, Iâve always been known as the reliable pet uncle amongst friends and family. My current full-time role is remote with limited meetings to attend, which gives me most days and hours of the week. Tuesdays and Wednesday are the most challenging in the morning, but beyond that itâs smooth-sailing. My current living situation is with a pair of cats and when needed I feed them twice a day, clean out their litter, and play with them whenever they have the zoomies. I have been available day/night whenever called upon and even for weeks at a time.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sun Valley
Ash was wonderful with Sasha, finding someone whoâs comfortable and confident handling a dog his size is really important to me. She was friendly and easy to communicate with, and I really appreciated her taking the time to get acquainted with Sasha. It was a great first experience, and Iâm looking forward to having her walk him again. Highly recommend.

Lianna is incredible! She is caring, patient, and so attentive to Chili. Sheâs a true animal lover and treated Chili like her own. She regularly sent me photos of Chili throughout his walk and kept me updated. Iâm definitely hiring her again, and you should too!

Emily relieved my stress when I was at work by coming to my home and taking my puppy Zorro for his bathroom break. She always updated me as to her schedule, was on time, courteous, always kept in real-time communication, even cleaned his paws and gave him a treat I left for him before she left. Will definitely be a returning customer. Thank you Emily!

Adam is the dog whisperer of dog whisperers. Our pitbull Camilla is normally hesitant to walk with a new person and will not venture far away from home the first time, but she was immediately smitten with Adam and they walked together for the entire hour! We have used so many dog walkers. This is the first and only time Camilla felt this comfortable with someone. Weâre so happy we found someone our dog is excited to walk with. He didnât even need to use treats to coax her. Adam is a needle in a haystack type of dog walker for the type of dog we have.

My pups immediately warmed to Emily and seemed to really enjoy their walks with her. Emily was attentive and easy to communicate with, handled the little extras easily (wiping paws, varying their walks, etc) and always brought my packages in (which I never asked her to do but greatly appreciated). I feel at ease knowing sheâs got their backs. I will be booking her again imminently.

Luna LOVED DeShaude. Though I was not surprised -he has such a way with animals⌠they know he is safe and loves them đ we hadnât seen him in a while and our older pup just passed so it was a bit hard to leave her but DeShaude made it so much easier. We got pics of walks and a report every time he took her out. Highly recommend!

Spencer is incredible! Heâs been walking my dog Buffalo, and I couldn't be happier. Heâs extremely punctual and has fast communication, which makes scheduling a breeze. Itâs so reassuring that he owns the same breed; he truly understands their energy levels and how to handle them on a leash. Heâs a total natural, and Buffalo always comes back happy!

The average cost of Dog Walking in Sun Valley is $18 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $31 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your petâs specific needs.

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 Sun Valley. 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 dogâs 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 Sun Valley 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 Sun Valley. On Rover:
- 86% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise

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 sitterâs 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, youâll 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.
