About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life. As a kid, I started my own business doing this exact thing! I have two dogs, Louie is the sweetest 9 y/o Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, and Kaizer is my 1 y/o very social Doberman! They both get along with dogs big and small, old and young! I know they would love to get to know your fur babies. The more the merrier! I’ve watched many adorable pups throughout my life, including with Rover. I took a break for traveling and work, but am excited to open my calendar back up to you! I spend most of my day at home with my dogs. I work from home, so my schedule is ideal for dog walking and pet sitting. My house is a great place for short and long stays. With more than enough outdoor yard space, a cozy indoor space with extra dog beds, crates (if asked), and so many interactive dog toys, you’ll be comforted to know your pup is has everything they need and more. Indoors: I have plenty of room in the house, so whether your pup prefers it’s personal space or to be have companionship with my two dogs, we can do whatever makes him/her be most comfortable. I also do allow my dogs on the furniture, so that won’t be a problem for me if that’s what they are used to. Outdoor: My house is a great place for overnight stays, I have a large front yard, even larger back yard that is fullly fenced, and a smaller courtyard that I use as well! I’ve also got plenty of toys, balls, and treats so they can chew, chase, tug, fetch, or just chill. I also have a filtered water fountain that holds over 2L to ensure fresh, clean water for your doggo anytime, all the time! I am very experienced with tending to medical needs in animals. I can administer oral, topical, or if they have a condition that requires an injections. As my pup underwent a serious surgery a few years back, I pretty much know everything about the anatomy of a dog If your pup is comfortable in crates, I have two different sized crates that I can use to accommodate. One is a small/medium sized crate that fits my Cavalier King Charles, and other is a Large/XL crate that fits my Doberman. I have a good bit of dog first aid supplies, just in case any accidents happen! But I will be by your pups side all the way to make sure he/she is playing safe! Oh, and of course I’ll be sending you updated pup pics :)

About: With over eight years of hands-on pet care experience, I don’t just “watch” animals — I build real bonds with them. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routines, quirks, and comforts so they feel safe, seen, and genuinely loved. Every animal in my care is treated as if they were my own, with patience, protection, and affection at the center of everything I do. Their happiness, trust, and tail wags are truly the greatest reward. I am a freelance professional makeup artist working part time, so I have plenty of free time to care for your furry friends and felines! When I care for your pets in your home, I treat the entire space with the same respect and attention I give your animals. I follow their routines closely, provide loving companionship, and make sure they feel safe, calm, and comfortable in their familiar environment. While I am there taking care of your pets, I am also taking care of your home — keeping a clean, safe, and mess-free space for your animal to relax in. You can return to a happy pet and a well-maintained home.

About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life. I have experience caring for my own dog as well as dog sitting for friends and family, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I’m a caring, patient, and reliable person, and when your dog is with me, I treat them like they’re my own. I love going on walks, playing, giving lots of attention, and making sure they feel happy and comfortable. I know every dog is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, routine, and what makes them feel most comfortable. Whether your pup is energetic and loves long walks or is more laid-back and enjoys relaxing, I’m happy to give them the care and attention they need. I’m available in the mornings and afternoons and can easily work pet care into my daily routine. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, and giving your pet plenty of love and attention. I’m reliable and flexible with scheduling, and I’ll make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I prioritize safety by keeping dogs on a secure leash, avoiding unsafe areas, watching for other dogs, cars, and distractions, and making sure they are comfortable throughout the walk. I follow the owner’s instructions and routines closely and always make sure the home is secure when I leave.

About: I started dog sitting as early as 15 years old with my mom’s clients. As she was a house keeper and I would dog sit/walk/play with the dogs and it became my summer job to get money and experience for myself. I love all dogs and animals but I am a true dog lover! I have my own two dogs. My first ever dog I rescued at 4 years old and he lived up to 20 years old! I now have two dogs one is a recent rescue chicharito who is a chihuahua mix and I 1 1/2 years old and my terrier mix who is 9 years old and they are both thriving! I take care of dogs and animals as if they are my own. I always take the holistic approach with animals and meet them half way as I know each of our loving furry members have their own personalities 😊. I would love to play, love, and care for your furry friends and make sure they get the activities they need and exercise while parents are out running errands, working or just enjoying life! Looking forward to caring for your loved ones! If there are any details I would need to know about your furry friend let me know so I can best support you! I am currently working a part time job that is pretty flexible! I can come by and take care of your loving friend- go on walks, play, exercise, prepare enrichment activities you have at home if any, feed your loving friend and water! Most importantly making sure your loving friend feeds safe and cozy! I currently am not offering pet care in my own home. I can offer pet sitting at your own home if that is more convenient. (:

“Mario was fantastic with Luna! He’s very communicative, responsible, takes tons of photos and give updates frequently. I needed someone to help me with walking Luna while I was at work and despite her being a handful, he was incredibly kind, patient, and undaunted by the task. I highly recommend him if you ever need someone to care for your fur babies.”

About: As a certified professional dog trainer, I bring more than pet care to every visit—I bring behavior expertise. Since 2015, I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments, from energetic puppies to sensitive rescue dogs. Whether your dog needs a structured walk, help building good manners, or simply compassionate care, I focus on creating positive experiences that build trust, confidence, and lasting skills. Dogs are at the center of my daily life. My schedule is built around training sessions, walks, enrichment activities, and pet care visits. Because working with dogs is my profession, I’m able to provide reliable, attentive care and make each pet’s physical and emotional well-being a priority. In clients’ homes, I maintain respect as a center point of my services. Whether we’re doing a walk, training session or drop-in, my goal is to respect your space and help your pup(s) feel comfortable and secure. Walks, play, enrichment, training reinforcement, feeding, medication administration (if needed), and plenty of affection and positive reinforcement are all part of my approach.

About: As a passionate and reliable pet sitter, I absolutely love caring for animals of all kinds, with a special soft spot for senior pets and playful kittens. I make sure to follow your care instructions and create a personalized routine to keep your furry friend happy and comfortable while you’re away.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I have for every dog I care for. I treat every pup like my own, while making sure they feel safe, comfortable and loved. I’m attentive to their individual personalities, routines, and needs, whether they’re playful puppies, energetic adults, or sweet seniors. I’m also happy to provide plenty of walks, playtime, cuddles, and basic reinforcement of good behaviors. My goal is for both you and your pup to feel completely comfortable and confident while you’re away. I’m around animals for most of my days, so caring for pets is a natural part of my routine. My schedule is fairly open and flexible depending on the day, which allows me to accommodate different pets’ needs, routines, and care schedules. I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that works best for you and your pet. I make sure every pet gets the care and attention they need, including regular walks, meals on their normal schedule, playtime, and plenty of love. I make sure they get their energy out and feel comfortable and happy while in my care. I also follow each pet’s individual routine and any specific instructions you provide.

About: I take pride in providing the best care for each animal in my home. I love being active with all animals, whatever may look like for them. Walks, play time, cuddles, you name it, I'm there! I have given excellent puppy through senior care for all breeds of dogs and cats. Having extensive experience working with all kinds of personalities. I am a stunt double for tv and film so I don’t work every day a normal 9-5. Since our SAG strike a year ago work has been slower and my other love is caring for animals and my dog. Besides my daily workout, I’m free the rest of the day to care for my dog and (now) your furry friend! I can easily accommodate any needs your dog may have with communication from the owner and make your dogs stay easy and stress free for them and you! Communication is huge for me and super important so you will always be kept up to date through pictures and video throughout their stay. I encourage and questions or concerns you may have because I want us to always be on the same page and make it a good experience for everyone! :)

About: Hi🐾 my name is Beray, i am 22 years old veterinary technician and a 1st year veterinary medicine student! In my free time i like to read (or study), watch movies, swim and cuddle with dogs❤️ I was taking care of dogs and cats just as a hobby only for people i knew, but decided i can help more pet owners and make their furry babies happy!! I have experiences with puppies and senior care. You will be receiving really nice photos of your pups🐶 I am at home 24/7 if needed (feel free to ask I don’t even leave for 5 minutes) no problem with that, home is fun with a furry baby we can play fetch, cuddle, watch movies!!! I know that all doggies need different care. For puppies, i am very good at potty training and obedience training. I also have first aid training🤍 Please read the following before booking either of these services: Day Care means: Between 0-10 hours Boarding means: Between 10-24 hours All of the pets i take care, they are my babies too!! They are all welcome for hugs and most importantly LOVE! For summer period i am free every day and i can start working really early if my client needs. I don’t like to go for walks so late for me and my client’s safety. We have a nice fenced backyard; we mostly play there and hangout i don’t let them out unsupervised. I only walk with leash, sometimes dogs see rabbits or squirrels and chase after them. We don’t want anyone to get hurt or scared 🫶🏻

About: I’ve always loved animals and understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual personality and needs. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and plenty of love and attention. I know every pet is different, so I take the time to follow their routine and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you know how your furry friend is doing while you’re away. I work part-time about 30 hours a week, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability during the daytime. I’m able to fit pet care into my routine through morning, midday, and afternoon visits, and I’m especially available for walks, drop-ins, and cat care. I’m reliable about planning my schedule in advance so I can give each pet the attention and care they need. I always prioritize a pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions carefully and keep their pet’s environment clean, secure, and familiar. I make sure doors and gates are properly closed, provide fresh water, follow feeding and medication instructions, and give pets plenty of attention and supervision. I also respect each pet’s individual personality and boundaries, allowing them to feel comfortable and relaxed while I’m caring for them.

About: With lifelong experience caring for dogs, horses, and cats, I'm an animal lover and horse whisperer. I train my pets, provide energy healing, and enjoy daily walks. Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, as I work from home and have the flexibility to design my own schedule. As an energy healing practitioner, I prioritize mindfulness and balance, which extends to my pets. I incorporate playtime, walks, and training when needed into my day, ensuring they receive ample exercise and mental stimulation. During breaks from my meditation and yoga sessions, I find joy in spending quality time with my pets, fostering a nurturing environment. Their companionship enhances my work-life balance, and I often use sound healing techniques to create a calming atmosphere for both myself and my furry friends. Caring for pets in my home is a thoughtful process. I have a fenced yard where your dog can play safely alongside my sweet 15 year old boxer, who loves companionship. I welcome only dogs that are friendly with cats, as my 4 year old indoor cat enjoys their company. I feed all dogs outside, right in front of my kitchen, ensuring a clean and pleasant environment. Cats are fed separately in the kitchen, with their food placed on furniture to keep is safe from curious dogs. For hydration, I have a water fountain for the cats and a water dispenser for the dogs, both inside and outside for the dogs. When needed, I can easily crate your dog at night; my boxer is crate trained but prefers to sleep freely now. I require that you bring your dog and cat with their own bed, food, and treats, ensuring they feel comfortable. Additionally, It's essential that all pets have a collar with a tag and a leash for safety. This structured approach helps create a harmonious atmosphere for all furry friends in my care.

About: I have experience in the veterinary field through a veterinary science program that prepared me for pre-veterinary studies. I volunteered over 40 hours with the Chesterfield Humane Society (Virginia) as well with kennel cleaning, walking and play, administering medicine, etc. I acquired skills such as grooming, daily care to include feeding and walking, neonatal care, noticing problems and signs of distress, medicinal administration techniques, and I even have a yorkipoo and shihpoo of my own. My yorkipoo is 16 years old. I’m very comfortable with dogs and I consider mine my furry, fluffy babies. I know how important your pets are, so I treat them how I would want mine to be treated when I need pet care. I mostly work from home and have a flexible schedule, allowing me to spend a significant amount of time with pets throughout the day. I can provide daycare, walks, drop-ins, and overnight care. I have a senior 17-year-old Yorkipoo, so my apartment is already safety-proofed and designed with pets in mind. My home has hardwood floors so messes are easy to solve, and I prioritize a calm, clean, secure environment.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Tarzana is $26 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $32 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 pet’s 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 your Tarzana. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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 sitter’s 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, you’ll 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.
