“I can not express how grateful I am for finding Yvonne! I am a veterinarian and went o visit family across the country. Yvonne took wonderful care of my Am Staff and came by for walks twice a day. When my baby seemed a little off she took her to the vet and we started treating her UTI before I got back from my trip. She is fantastic and I would and will use her in the future. Can’t recommend enough!”
About: I grew up in a household with dogs of all personalities, which informed by love of animals. For the past ten years, I've been taking care of pets for friends and family while they're away. This includes dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rats, and bunnies. Over the years, I've done home visits, walks, indoor and outdoor playtime, joint play dates, feeding, and medicine dispersal. I love discovering the personality of every pet I meet and I can't wait to get to know yours! I'm currently working as a substitute teacher, so my schedule is very flexible! I will work around whatever works best for you and your pet. I will always meet your preferences for how to best care for your pet at home or on walks. Knowing the training they have and your boundaries will help make me aware of your expectations.
“Elizabeth is a fantastic dog walker and we would recommend her to anyone who needs dog walking or dog sitting services. She is on time, fantastic with dogs, and was willing to work with us to provide care for our animals on short notice. We have worked with a few dog walkers in the past from Rover and Elizabeth is by far the best.”
“Catherine was very prompt in her service and was on time for the services I requested. She provided many photos to help me feel at ease that my dog was being well taken care of! She was consistently professional and kind. My dog instantly took to her and could tell she was a safe person to be around. I plan to book Catherine again in the near future and would trust her with my dog!”
“This was my first time working with Lane and I am so happy with the experience. Her communication was quick and so professional and also very detailed. Kept me in the loop as the appointment went on.”
“Emily was the sweetest to my fur baby. I rescued my dog a month ago and she has had a rough time acclimating to people and other dogs and Emily made such a big effort to make her feel comfortable. She’s such a caring person, fully recommended!”
“Joselyn really stepped up in a pinch. She was professional and so great with my puppy. When she discovered my puppy had found the bathroom TP and used it as a chew toy she took her time to clean it up! Completely unnecessary but much appreciated. Top notch! I’ve used her multiple times and always impressed! 👏”

About: I grew up surrounded by animals who were truly a part of the family, so caring for pets has always felt natural to me. Throughout college, I nannied for two kids, their dog and occasionally house sat. I believe every animals deserves patience, love, attentive care, and a safe, happy place to play and be themselves. I work part-time, so I have plenty of time to give your pups attention, cuddles, walks, and playtime.

“Keri was wonderful! Prompt and very sweet to both the dog she was caring for as well as the cat that she wasn’t even sitting. Came home to a happy healthy boy and a house just as I left it. Highly recommend!”
About: I grew up around animals: cats, a dog, even two gerbils. I also pet-sat for my neighbor while I was in high school. I am lucky now to have a crazy lovebug orange kitty named Mr. Buttons. He sadly has no interest in being around dogs or other cats, so I have to look outside our home to satisfy my love for them. I am as trustworthy as they come, and I believe pet care should come above all else. I'm currently working part-time, so my schedule is very flexible and I'm amenable to any kind of arrangement for caring for your pets. I'm typically free on weekdays, but as I said, my schedule changes and there are always exceptions. My priority is to build trust both with the pet and owner. I follow all instructions laid out to the T and ensure the pet feels comfortable and safe in my presence. I also respect the pet owner's home by leaving it exactly as I found it. It's vitally important to me that your pet feels loved even when you are away, so I never skimp out on pets or cuddles when they are desired.
About: I have had cats and dogs and mice and fish my whole life, and have been many people's go-to consultant for care and advice, and for taking care of their pets when they're out of town. I am one of those people that folks say have "a way with animals". Always have, even when I was a toddler. I can administer medications and injections, help with puppy training, and bring your shy pet out of his or her shell. I rescued my own kitties when they were only a week old and syringe and bottle-fed them and reared them up to be sturdy upright feline citizens of the world. I'm good with the "difficult" cases, and a gentle loving companion to the seniors. I do this because I adore and feel a bond with all animals and creatures of all kinds. :) I am available for morning and mid-day walks and drop-ins, and some evening walks depending on the day, and evening drop-ins most days of the week. I'll dote on your pets as if they are my own, and am happy to follow their routines and rituals and also bring a little novelty and fun to their day.
“Found David last minute! He is flexible, dependable, and can follow instruction’s. He treats my dog like his own and trust him with his knowledge and care for pets!”
“I am so particular about who I hope to have around my senior dog but Dea has been so sweet and punctual and so understanding of my dogs wants and needs! I feel like I can take a deep breath knowing she’ll pop in to check on my pup from time to time! Cannot recommend enough”
“Dana is wonderful! She does a great job with our young, energetic dog Marty, who can be difficult to manage on a leash. Marty loves Dana and looks forward to his walks with her! He always comes back happy and tired out!”
“Jamie did a wonderful job taking our dogs out for their daily 1-hour walks! She offered to meet the boys for a meet and greet and they immediately warmed up to her friendly and sweet personality. Jamie was great with communication and always reached out if she needed to update us or had a question. We're so happy with her services and will be asking her to take care of our little one next week for a few days. Don't hesitate to reach out to Jamie for your pet care needs!”

“I reached out around 8:30 at night looking for a last minute walk, and he responded right away and was able to come that same evening. He showed up on time, was really friendly, and did a great job with my anxious dog. I was a little worried since my dog has been having a hard time lately, but he was so patient with him. When they got back, my dog seemed so much happier and more relaxed. I really appreciated how responsive and reliable he was, and I would definitely book with him again.”

What a find. Tanner is such a kind and sweet guy, an obvious dog lover who is very attentive and communicative regarding his walks. It’s very clear my dog adores him, and I’m so grateful for his extra care, and thankful that he lives nearby and is so convenient and available for last-minute scheduling.
We've hired Vanesa to walk our 2 girls, and she's also done a couple of drop-in visits. Vanesa is wonderful to work with and has become our go-to person when we need some help with the girls. We have a 120 lb Saint Bernard and a border collie mix and she's great with both. She's very responsive and gives regular updates. She follows directions when doing the drop-ins, even when we unexpectedly have to change things up last minute. She's very flexible and understanding, just a joy to work with! The dogs love her and they're looking forward to their next walk with her!
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!
Jaislyn is very friendly, responsible, and easy to talk to and she clearly loves dogs. Our pittie was obsessed with her from the second she met her, and we could tell from the photos how happy and loved our dog was while we were gone. She left our place very neat, communicated issues that popped up at our place while we were away, and handled things for us without complaint. We would absolutely hire her again!
It’s hard for me to trust most people with my dog and he doesn’t take to everyone but Kate made the experience much less nerve wracking. She was very communicative and sent photos soon after the walk, which helped with my nerves. Kate was attentive to all of my very specific instructions and I highly recommend booking them especially if you have an overly anxious dog.
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. We’re so happy we found someone our dog is excited to walk with. He didn’t 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 she’s got their backs. I will be booking her again imminently.

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 Valley Village. 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 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.
