About: I am a loving pet mom for 15 yrs and before and during that time I have helped many others with their animals. I can sit, check in and play with, and take for walks. I love animals and giving them attention because I know it is so important. I work from home so I love reasons to get out of the house and pet friends to keep me company at night. I work and stay 100% near the outskirts of Yuba City. My pets and their friends safety in #1 in my house and yard. I have a very large fenced in back yard and I have proofed it so not even very small dogs (like mine) can find a way out. I am an avid pet counter before doors are open and I double and sometimes triple check that the home is secured before I leave, we don’t want any babies to get out of their safe space.

About: I began transporting dogs, including puppies, in 2020 for a dog-breeding business in Yuba City, CA. I've bathed, walked, and cared for puppies and dogs of all sizes and ages. I occasionally check in on cats when their owners are out of town. I've trained dogs how to sit and how to take walks properly. I walk my pitbull mix and my chihuahua together side by side. I also walk my neighbor's lab twice per week because he is elderly and arthritic, unable to walk her himself. I greatly enjoy the outdoors and animals!!! I work full-time Monday through Friday 8-5. So my availability is limited to Sundays only, add Saturdays I'm normally hanging out with my husband and we often go out of town for the day I can watch your pet in your home. If you live near the dog park, I can take your dog there as well. The Yuba City dog park has closed down but there is one in Live Oak next to the soccer park.

About: With a lifetime of experience around animals and the last 7 years being dedicated to hands-on pet care, I've decided to put my passion and love for animals into full-time pet sitting. I currently have 4 dogs and 1 cat in the home, most of my pets throughout my life have been rescues. My german shepherd that was rescued 7 years ago really brought out my passion for working with animals. I have experience with a range of breeds, ages, sizes, personalities, high-maintenance care, medical care, you name it! I'm not just a dog or cat person, I'm an animal lover. The pets we bring into our homes are family, and I strive to make sure all feel comfortable and content. I promise to provide a safe, fun, and loving environment for your furry (or scaly, feathery, hairless) friends. I’m currently dedicating myself to pet sitting full-time so I have plenty of time to spend with your loved ones! I’m available 7 days a week, anytime you need—day or night! Your pets needs and wellbeing is top priority. I will always ensure basic needs are met first such as food, water, medication, bathroom breaks, etc. Boundaries are very important to me and I will make sure to never cross them, please make me aware of any and all!

About: Hi there! I’m Kevin, and I provide warm, personalized pet care in the Sacramento State area. I share my home with pets I care for in a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where they can feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. As someone who loves running and staying active, I especially enjoy taking dogs along the beautiful river paths right in front of my unit if they enjoy exercise and outdoor adventures too! Whether your pet prefers long walks, playtime, cuddle sessions, or a slower-paced routine, I always adapt my care to their personality and comfort level. I have over 10 years of experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I pride myself on being patient, empathetic, responsible, and highly communicative so pet parents always feel informed and at ease. I currently work part-time while preparing for higher education, and caring for animals is something I genuinely love. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. I also provide regular photo and video updates so you can stay connected with your furry friend while you’re away. I treat every pet like family and strive to create a loving and enriching experience whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours. I’d love to meet you and your pet! 🐶🐾🐱 Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine, driven by my genuine love for animals. My day often begins with morning walks or runs, which not only keep me active but also allow me to enjoy quality time with the pets I care for. I schedule dedicated times for feeding, play, and grooming, ensuring that each pet gets the individualized attention they deserve. My flexible part-time job gives me the freedom to balance work and pet care seamlessly. Whether it’s taking dogs on hikes or engaging in playful activities with cats, I make sure that caring for pets is a joyful and integral part of my everyday life. When caring for pets in my home, I prioritize safety and trust by providing a secure and welcoming environment tailored to their needs. I ensure that my space is pet-proofed, with safe areas for them to play and relax. A structured routine for feeding, walking, and playtime helps pets feel comfortable and reduces anxiety. In clients’ homes, I respect their space and routines while maintaining the same level of care and attention. I take extra precautions to follow any specific guidelines provided by pet owners, ensuring their pets feel secure and loved. Open and honest communication is key; I keep pet owners updated on their pets’ well-being, reinforcing trust and peace of mind. Whether in my home or theirs, my commitment is to create a safe and nurturing environment where pets can thrive.

About: I've always loved having pets in my life! Along with caring for my three cats, I've volunteered at an animal shelter and previously fostered cats, giving me experience with different personalities, routines, and needs. Since our pets can't tell us what they need in words, I pay close attention to their body language, behavior, and little ways of communicating. Whether it's recognizing when a dog needs exercise, noticing when a cat is feeling overwhelmed, or understanding when an animal wants companionship or a little space, I believe in letting their individual needs guide how I care for them. I'm familiar with everyday care, including feeding schedules, fresh water, walks, grooming, litter box cleaning, and keeping their spaces comfortable. I do my best to maintain familiar routines and make their time away from family as stress-free as possible. I'm also happy to share photos and updates so you can see how your furry companions are doing! Working remotely allows me to spend much of my day at home with my pets. My cats are usually curled up nearby while I work, often taking turns cuddling in my lap as I type. In fact, my little Mitra is sitting on my lap right now as I'm filling this out. Having a flexible work-from-home routine makes it easier to incorporate feeding schedules, playtime, walks, and plenty of company throughout the day. I enjoy having animals around while I work, as they keep me just as much company as I do them. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life, and there's always room for a few more furry friends. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires a great deal of trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. My priority is to provide a safe, comfortable environment for your pets while respecting your home, privacy, and personal belongings. I will always want to be sure if there are any household instructions first, including pet care routines, security measures, and any areas designated as private. I limit my activities to the spaces necessary for caring for your pets, keep shared areas clean and organized, and ensure your home is properly secured whenever I leave. I believe clear communication is essential, so I'm happy to provide regular updates and photos, promptly address any concerns, and contact you if anything unexpected arises. My goal is for you to return to your home as you have left it, and happy, comfortable pets, with the peace of mind that both have been treated with care and respect.

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life, and I truly believe they’re one of the best parts of the world. I was a dog owner for over 10 years, and after losing my sweet girl to cancer, I really missed having furry friends around. That experience reminded me just how much joy and companionship pets bring into our lives. From dogs and cats to fish and hamsters, caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I’m a family guy with a comfortable home and a safe, secure environment where your pet can feel relaxed, loved, and right at home. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your furry family member with someone else. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pet gets plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and care. Whether your companion needs walks, drop-in visits, sitting, boarding, or simply some extra love and attention, I’m happy to help. I’ll treat your pet like part of my own family and make their safety, comfort, and happiness my top priorities. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged family member! 🐾❤️ I work part-time in the evenings and am available during the day to spend time with and care for your pets. While I’m at work, my wife and daughter are home and will be there to care for them. Your pets will always have someone at home with them, so they won’t be left alone. You can have peace of mind knowing your pets will receive care, attention, and companionship around the clock. I have a good-sized, secure backyard where dogs can safely enjoy some outdoor time, as well as a public walking path right behind my house for those who enjoy stretching their legs and getting some exercise. I love taking dogs for walks—it’s a great way for them to get fresh air, exercise, and enrichment while keeping them happy and comfortable. I always make sure pets are supervised, cared for, and treated like part of the family while they’re in my home.

Lexington was amazing!! She was wonderful with my dog, who is on the more sensitive side. Despite my Mildred's initial anxieties, Lexington was able to win her over with her patience and kindness. I would definitely recommend her as a sitter, especially if your fur baby needs a little extra TLC 🩷

FAQs for Dog Walking - Tierra Buena

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Tierra Buena is $16 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $16 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 572 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Tierra Buena. 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 Tierra Buena. 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 dog’s 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 Tierra Buena 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 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 Tierra Buena. On Rover:

  • 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 91% 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 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 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.
