“Naya was wonderful with our fur baby Milo. She took him & her doggo to the park & shared a lot of videos & photos. She also gave us a printed photo of Milo. We really appreciated her care & time. Milo came back happy & tired.”
“Joella was great! She did a meet & greet with us, showed up on time each day, kept in communication with us and took her time with our fur baby who can be skittish until he gets to know a new person. Would recommend and use her again.”
“Kiara took great care of our dog for a few days. We've booked her before and would highly recommend her. Skeeter (our dog) was actually looking for her yesterday afternoon when she would come by to see him.”
“Nancy handled my pup so well despite his hesitation and nervousness of meeting new people. She knew how to greet him and build trust with him and took amazing care of him overall which made him warm up to her. I am very grateful for her as she helped me take care of my baby while I’m dealing with a broken foot and I am unable exercise him enough. THANK YOU NANCY!! 🙏”
“Maestro and Maggie Mae really enjoyed their time with Samantha. Of course, the first couple of walks they were a bit anxious with a new human, but by the third walk they were both waiting by the front door for her arrival. Samantha is a sweet young woman, who really seems to love her gig as a walker. We heartily recommend her, and most importantly, will reach out again for her services when required. Thanks Samantha”
“Julia is awesome! My super quirky pups trusted her right away and she got lots of kisses from Jack immediately. Already discussed future walks! Thank you, Julia!”

About: While many sitters focus primarily on cats and dogs, I also have experience caring for exotic pets, including birds, reptiles, and ferrets. Over the past year, I’ve regularly helped care for my bestfriend’s ferrets, Boo and Zero, ensuring they receive proper supervision, enrichment, feeding, and attention. My experience with both traditional and exotic pets allows me to adapt to a variety of care requirements and environments! My schedule is currently very flexible! I’m generally available Monday through Friday, especially during daytime hours, but im happy to work with pet parents to find a schedule that works best for everyone.. just let me know in advance ^_^ I treat every pet as if they were my own. I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, plenty of attention, and a consistent routine! I pay close attention to their behavior, comfort level, and any special instructions provided by their owner :)
“Reached out to Vianka super last minute and she was able to squeeze me in. She constantly communicated with me and provided updates and pictures on both my pets. Thank you once again! ♥️”
“Mark went out his way to help us out, making scheduling easy by being flexible and quick with communication. He even sent us a cute picture of Tilly on her walk. Feel grateful to know she was well cared for when I couldn’t be there.”
About: he tenido muchas mascotas durante los últimos 45 años, me encantan los perros y gatos, soy una persona que le gusta caminar y un compañero no me haría mal. Estoy retirada entonces puedo estar con las mascotas todo los días a todas horas, tengo tiempo para darle sus comidas y llevarlos a pasear Tengo una casa muy grande con un jardín y tengo áreas donde pueden dormir si les gusta el silencio y estar solos y también tengo espacio para que duerman acompañados
“I reached out to Tanisha weeks before our family vacation to Kissimmee, and she was very quick to respond and answer any questions I had. We needed our not so little bundle of joy (yappy/nervous/health needy) walked multiple times on our trip (from a resort in which she was willing to deal with getting a key as well), and she was very patient and willing to help us out with walking our pup. I would definitely recommend her to anyone needing their pet walked/taken care of, and will use her on future trips to the area if she has availability! 🐶”
“Jackie saved the week! We were camping at Disneys Fort Wilderness and I had booked with another walker who cancelled on me at the last min (3 hours before our meet and greet!). Jackie met me for a meet and greet on a three hour notice. She was able to accommodate our schedule and walk my babies everyday for the week we were here. I booked her for an hour everyday and let her decide what would be best for the dogs. We are from NC and this Florida heat is no joke! She always kept me updated letting me know what they did and sent several pictures each day. I am so grateful we met Jackie she was literally a lifesaver!”
“For a first time, Roovwr user, Daniel was excellent. Immediately responded great with the communication the whole time and was even easy on my dog for being a first time Rover user. Will definitely use again.”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs of different ages and personalities. I currently have two spayed female cats, ages 5 and 10 both are good with other animals, and previously cared for our family Morkie for many years who has since passed. I’ve also helped care for my dad’s Golden Retriever with walks, feeding, playtime, and daily routines. Being around animals has always been a meaningful part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy creating a calm, safe environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. ✨ I work from home and have a flexible schedule through my small business, which makes it easy for me to provide attentive and reliable pet care throughout the day. 🐾 I focus on creating a calm, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can feel safe and relaxed. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any specific routines their pet is used to. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the space and the pet’s routine to help minimize stress while their owner is away. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel reassured and connected throughout the stay. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I always approach them with patience, attention, and gentle care.
About: I’ve had many pets from dogs and cats to a bird, turtle, and hedgehog. I’ve been determined to play with all of them, even the fish! I also have experience with elderly dogs. Mine actually passed recently of cancer so spoon feeding and an abundance of cuddles is normal to me. Im currently doing school online while at home caring from my grandparents so my schedule is pretty open and any excuse to be outside is a plus! I have two cats and a big backyard!! One cat is really sweet and friendly and the other is scared of everything but completely harmless. In a clients home, I promise i’m a good guest:)

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Taft
I cannot thank Naya enough for always taking care of my dog, Lucy. More than that, she is also very aware of her surroundings and attentive to what’s going on. The last time she visited my house, she had noticed my indoor cats broke through a screen and were outside wondering around. She spent her own time finding my cats and then making sure they were safe inside. Again- I cannot thank her enough. She is the absolute best!
Sophia was absolutely amazing with my pet. You can genuinely tell how much she cares — she treats your pet like it’s her own. While I was away, she kept me constantly updated with messages and check-ins, which gave me so much peace of mind. It made such a difference knowing my pet was not only safe, but truly cared for. I would 100% recommend Sophia to anyone looking for someone reliable, attentive, and loving to watch their pet.
Came with fairly short notice to walk our dog. Prompt, highly communicative, friendly and considerate. Birdie really likes her as well! You can tell she really loves animals and wants to keep them happy and safe. She treats them like they are her own. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Taft on Rover is $16.65 per walk (as of August 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 .

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 Taft. 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 Taft.

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 Taft. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
