Dog Walking Tropico

“Javier rules. He’s walked my dog a ton and always does a great job. Good communication and very reliable (especially with my sporadic walking requests). Sends great pics and walk cards too!”

“Megan walks our 6 year old little terrier mix, Poppy. Megan is very patient with our nervous pup. She takes her time and makes sure Poppy is feeling safe. We really appreciate the extra effort Megan made getting to know Poppy before her first walk. She walks Poppy twice a week and we are so happy to have her help. We know our pup is in good hands!”

“Rachel was a fantastic with our new rescue dog, Winnie. Winnie is very shy and easily scared - Rachel understood all of her feelings and did the exact right things to get her comfortable. Winnie warmed up to her very fast!!! Rachel was also very communicative with us, which was so reassuring and helpful. Thank you Rachel!!! We are looking forward to booking her again.”

About: With 10 years of Experience in Dog Care, I strive to provide the best care possible for your fur baby. I am able to administer oral medications, trim nails, provide baths if needed to keep your pup clean, and provide daily exercise through walks and play. I also apply my knowledge in Obedience training to encourage good behavior through positive reinforcement so that your pup maintains good habits or picks up good habits during their stay. I also accept boardings and daycares in small groups of dogs to ensure your pup gets more individual attention while also being able to socialize with other dogs! I am home full time to provide your pup with the attention they deserve. I begin my days very early with a trip to the gym at 5am. Upon my return, I walk the pups in my care to get their paws moving and get their day started. All pups in my care are fed according to the schedule provided by the pet parent. My wife and I work on this together to ensure that your pup is never alone and receives consistent exercise. My children are also very gentle with Dogs and take responsibility in the care of their own dog. We treat your pup as they are part of the family. Our home is consistently kept clean to provide a great environment for your pup. We have a fenced in yard which is cleaned everyday and sprayed with OdoBan to prevent the smell of pet waste and maintain a fresh smell. All cleaning supplies are used after pups go inside for bed, and left overnight to dry so the pups start the new day with a clean yard. Our home has AC and heating so that all pups and humans are comfortable year round. Each pet parent is updated with 3 photos and 1 video per day for boarding (1 photo and 1 video for daycare). If a pet parent needs to call, messaging me first and informing me of a time I can best reach you or letting me know you need to discuss something via phone call would be the most efficient route. Messaging for quick responses will also be perfect.

“Super friendly and responsive! Our dog Freddie really loved Zixuan. Freddie has door and “people leaving” anxiety, and Zixuan was really attentive to our special instructions for leaving the house after the walk. Will definitely be booking with her again 😊”

“My dog loves Kira! I scheduled walks with her for a week when I was injured and couldn’t take my dog out as frequently. She was punctual, communicative, friendly and great with Alfie. I’ll definitely book her again.”

“She was so sweet and gentle and took such great care of our dog! Our dog was so happy walking with her and had such a great time!”

About: Hi! Welcome! I have been a cat mom for 16 yrs, but sadly my beloved cat, Mittens passed away in May 2025. I miss him dearly! And I deeply miss having a fur baby in my life! But since I’m not ready to get a new pet, I would like to give my love, attention and experience into taking care of other people’s pets! I am extremely experienced with taking care of cats and I have taken care of family and friend’s dogs before, and now several times professionally on Rover, that it’s made me fall in love with dogs just as as cats! I absolutely love and enjoy taking care of both dogs and cats! And they both have their own wonderful and amazing charms! 😁 I work from home so I am always at home, so it makes it easy to take care of pets and give them all the attention and potty breaks that they need. I am available for boarding or pet daycare at anytime, so please feel free to contact me whenever you would like. I live in a one bedroom apartment that is 1000-1500 sqft and I don’t have a backyard or personal balcony, but live in a very safe residential neighborhood, so walking dogs outside at anytime of the day is completely safe and fine. My living room is a reasonable size (1000 sqft), which is why I only board small to medium sized dogs; however, I work from home, so I’m always able to take the dogs out to get some much needed air, sun and exercise daily, so they don’t get too cooped up or bored indoors. I also always make it a priority to turn the AC and fans on at my place, so they can stay cool and comfortable at all times. Furthermore, I have used the Rover App before to have my own late cat boarded with a pet sitter on here, so I fully understand the comfort and the need for owners to have pet sitters send photos, videos and daily updates of their pets to them, therefore, I always make that a priority and I am more than happy to do that! I firmly believe and take it very seriously that a pet sitter should always respond immediately and be absolutely communicative at all times!

“Alexis is incredible! I needed a walk super last minute, and my dog is really anxious around new people, so she doesn’t even always let them take her outside. But somehow Alexis made her feel instantly comfortable and got her outside in a few minutes! Truly a dog person, very grateful :)”

“thank you rachel! you are great with winston and also great with communicating with me. I trust you in my apartment and with my baby. I can tell you genuinely love dogs and know how to handle them. thank you so so much!”

“KC is such good vibes. Lupe loved him from the start. They walked a long distance in a short time and she came straight to nap after their walk, an epic success. Will definitely hit him up again! Thanks a ton KC!”

About: I’m a caring, dependable, and patient pet sitter who treats every pet like family. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication reminders, and plenty of love and attention. I’m especially patient with shy or nervous pets and understand the importance of giving them time to feel comfortable. I also pay close attention to pets’ behavior and safety, and I’m committed to providing reliable, personalized care. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and regular visits throughout the week, and I plan my day around each pet’s needs. I’m reliable, punctual, and committed to giving every pet the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I keep pets supervised, secure, and comfortable while following each pet parent’s instructions and routine. In a client’s home, I respect their space, keep the environment clean, and make sure doors, gates, and other safety areas are secure. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs, and I communicate with the pet parent about how their pet is doing. My goal is to provide a calm, safe, and caring environment where every pet feels comfortable.

“Alex started walking my Pomeranian in the afternoons after I returned to a hybrid work schedule and she is amazing!! I can tell Sammy enjoys her time outside with Alex midday and I can fully trust Alex with her while I’m at work or away.”

About: I’ve had my anxious baby boy black cat since he was a little foster kitten in 2020. I also grew up with a crazy maltipoo, birds, turtles, and more, so I’m very comfortable caring for all types and personalities! I’m currently working part time as a nanny for human babies, so I have plenty of odd hours to help with your fur babies too! I’m happy to follow any safety and care instructions you have. I can play with more social animals or be gentle and quiet with more anxious pets.

“Isabella has done an incredible job with Manolo! She's handled Manolo's anxiety and resistance to the leash with ease. She's so timely and I've enjoyed her detailed reports and updates. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve always been a dog person and have had dogs throughout my life. I currently don’t have one of my own, so I love any opportunity to spend time with dogs. I work mostly from home, so I’m around for the majority of the day. My flexible schedule means I can take plenty of breaks for walks, potty breaks, playtime, or just relaxing together. I also enjoy staying active, so if your dog likes longer walks, I’d be happy to do that too. I genuinely enjoy giving dogs lots of attention, affection, and companionship. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers to nap next to someone while they work, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Since I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I truly appreciate any chance to spend time with them and will treat your pup like they’re part of my family while they’re with me. I work mostly from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m around for the majority of the day. That means plenty of time for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, keep a clean and calm environment, and make sure they always feel comfortable, loved, and supervised.

About: I’ve always had pets at home, so caring for animals is a natural part of my life. I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I treat every pet with the same care and love I give my own. I work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule. This allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine and give pets the time and attention they need. I make sure pets feel safe, calm, and comfortable by following their routine, keeping a clean space, and giving them gentle, attentive care with love and respect.

About: Hi, I'm Emma! Being surrounded by dogs of my own for most of my life, I learned to care for animals at a young age. I am open to being around all animals and have been a devoted cat owner for over a year now. Kittie is very loving and minds her own business when it comes to other animals around. I can relate to the experience of having to leave your pet for someone else to watch. Don't worry, you will get constant updates and photos! My apartment complex has a private dog park for residents and is less than five minutes from beautiful Echo Park, perfect for walks, exercise, and boarding! As a person, I am honest, reliable, and loving. I understand the importance of detail and will follow any routine that you usually follow. I am currently enrolled in college, so my availability would work around a fairly flexible schedule. It would fill my heart to take care of your pup when you aren't available and give them all of the love they need!

“Such a kind walker that came through for me and Wilma when I was unable to walk due to injuries.”
