About: I’ve spent years around dogs of all sizes and personalities—energetic puppies, mellow seniors, and everything in between. Whether that’s long walks, runs, play sessions, or just quiet company, I adjust to each dog’s unique needs and energy level. I’m comfortable with basic training reinforcement, giving medications, and keeping a consistent routine so your pet feels secure while you’re away. Because I’m active myself, I love giving dogs plenty of exercise—whether that’s neighborhood walks or longer outdoor adventures. At the same time, I know when a pet just needs patience, calm, and extra TLC. My goal is always to make your dog feel safe, happy, and cared for as if they were my own. Because I work remotely, I'm home throughout the day and available for pet care at virtually any time. Whether it's midday walks, feeding schedules, or just keeping a furry friend company, I can easily weave it into my routine without any disruption. Pets in my care are never left alone for long — I'm always just a room away! When caring for pets, safety and comfort always come first. In your home, I make sure to stick to your pet’s routine so they feel secure—whether that means feeding schedules, walks, or bedtime rituals. I’m attentive to details like locking doors, checking gates, and making sure your pet has water, food, and a cozy spot to relax. I believe trust comes from consistency, so I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether it’s playtime, exercise, or quiet companionship, I create an environment where your pet feels safe, cared for, and happy while you’re away.
“Katherine has helped us with dog walking when we travel and we always have zero concerns that our pup will be happy and taken care of with her. She takes such great photos and you can tell they're having a good walk. So appreciative of her helping us out.”
“Tierney is amazing! She walked our pup Cash for two days and was so great about sending us updates. She is an absolute sweetheart and we will definitely use her again. Thanks so much! :)”
“Annalisa is so kind and accommodating when it comes to helping take care of my big St. Bernard. Really appreciate how quickly they have bonded—makes me feel at ease when I can’t be home early enough to walk the dog. Annalisa keeps me well informed, and she goes above and beyond with checking on the water bowl, taking in packages, etc. Appreciate her and thrilled to know her!”
About: I'm a proud Cat Dad to 3 kitties , and have first hand understanding how important your little four legged friend is to your family. I'm currently between jobs and available most days to walk or pop in for pet care with in a day or less notice. High Availability. I live close by and can come to you. I will make sure your pet receives copious snuggles, pets, and playtime. I will take care of your pets as I would my own.
“Rachel is amazing. She is a true animal lover. Her connection with our Bella was so nice to see. Feel good knowing Bella will be taking good care of and loved with in Rachel’s care. Highly recommend and will continue using for future walks and care. 🐾”
About: From growing up with Golden Retrievers to taking solo-care of my Bernedoodle for the past 6 years, caring for dogs has always been part of my everyday. Throughout the years, I’ve welcomed pets of various breeds, ages, and needs into my home. Eager to continue providing a supportive hand to pet parents, I look forward to ensuring yours receives the best care possible. My promise: to take care of your pet like I would take care of my own. I am currently working remotely with a flexible schedule that allows me to provide constant care and attention to any and all of your dog's needs. I have a dog-friendly apartment in Marina del Rey with a sundeck, a dog run and a quiet neighborhood with nearby parks & marina pathways for daily walks. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and will be given close, loving attention throughout each day! I'm comfortable with all types of pet needs, including administering medications and basic potty and manor training for puppies. Just let me know how I can help and I will make my schedule fit your needs! I have a 30 lb mini-bernedoodle of my own who is incredibly sweet and gentle, especially with smaller dogs. She is pretty calm and good at reading the room, but is willing to do one on one play time if your dog is looking for a playmate. :)
About: I grew up with cats but have taken care of numerous dogs throughout my life. I have experience with all sizes and temperaments, including seniors, special diets, anxiety-prone pups and routine-focused households. During the week I'm usually working in an Art Gallery in Inglewood where dogs are allowed. Working remotely is also possible. On the weekends im working in Retail on Abbot Kinney. I would love to discuss the schedule with you. Currently I'm house and pet sitting only. My apartment doesn't allow pets but I have no problem with moving into your home to make it as comfortable as possible for your fur-baby. I don't have a car, so it should be close to Venice Beach, walkable preferred.
About: I've been around dogs my whole life and have cared for everything from 10-pound lap dogs to 100-pound giants. I also cared for my own senior dog for the last three years of her life, so I'm comfortable giving medications and providing the extra patience and attention older pets need. I also have a young cat named Annie and have experience caring for foster cats. In my free time, I volunteer with a local animal rescue, where I work with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or just wants someone to keep them company, I'm happy to adapt to what makes them happiest. I am currently looking for a new full time job so I have plenty of time to devote to different types of pet care at the moment! I treat every pet like they're my own and try to stick as closely as possible to their normal routine. I'll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any other care they need. I know every pet has a different personality, so whether they want to play, explore, or just curl up on the couch, I'm happy to meet them where they're comfortable. I'll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you know how they're doing while you're away.
“Athena was so great with our pup Fred! We needed some help with daily walks while my wife was out of town for work and I had shoulder surgery. We will def be booking with her again in the future 😊”
About: Just moved from Seattle to Venice beach. Starting over and rebuilding my boarding clientele. My boyfriend and I have a beautiful one bedroom apartment with a fenced outdoor space just steps from the beach. We have three dogs which consist of two seniors and one lazy one. In Seattle I had an upward for 40 or so regular clients whose dogs I cared for over many years. It was tough saying goodbye but I’m excited to rebuild and make new dog friends here in Venice :) Dogs have been my world since I was a kid. I started out working in dog daycares and boarding facilities where I learned a lot about pack behavior, safety, and reading different personalities. I later moved into grooming, which I still enjoy doing sometimes. Over the years I’ve also been involved in foster care and rescue for dogs in high kill shelters later helping dogs find homes. I most recently spent seven years working in veterinary medicine so I’m very comfortable recognizing health issues and caring for dogs with different needs. When pets stay with me, they become part of the household. I keep a calm, structured environment with lots of attention, play, and rest time. Dogs have access to comfy spots to relax, supervised social time if they enjoy other dogs, and consistent routines so they feel secure, safe, and genuinely at home.
About: Certified Dog Trainer. Every dog receives personalized attention, exercise, enrichment, and positive reinforcement to help them feel relaxed, confident, and happy during their stay here. Pet care is my full-time profession, allowing me to provide dependable, attentive care every day of the week. Your dog will receive constant supervision and personalized attention. Every dog is supervised in a clean, structured environment where safety comes first. I follow each dog's routine, reinforce basic manners and provide updates with photos, and tailor care to puppies, seniors, and dogs with special behavioral or training needs.
About: I've been around love dogs all of my life. Dogs of all sizes. I believe they sense in my that I will take care of them and trust me easily. I will love on your dog like my own! I am currently not working outside the home. So I am home all day now. I'm able to take your dog out and tend to them as much as they need. I have a good sized 1bdrm apartment. There is plenty of space to still play a little fetch. And in a modern well kept building.
“Ross was great. He took both the dogs on two long walks every day. They thoroughly enjoyed having him take them. He was also very communicative and kept us up-to-date on what was going on with them during the day. Highly recommend him.”
About: I’m a dog lover based in Venice with a small fenced yard, and I work from home during the week - so your pup will get plenty of attention, care, and company throughout the day.

I have a clean, safe, & spacious home with a small fenced yard for safe outdoor time. I stick closely to your dog’s schedule and make sure they feel comfortable and at home.
“Hannah was an amazing dog walker for my 3.5 month old Yorkie Winnie! Hannah was also my first Rover and I was so happy to have chosen her! She was on time, walked/ran Winnie for the full hour, and my puppy came back to me so happy and exhausted. Hannah told me that despite Winnie being super fearless, she made sure she didn't get dangerously close to any huge dogs:) Definitely will be calling you again Hannah, thank you so much!!!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Venice
Jenny is thoughtful, kind, and incredible with our dog Duke. We ended up needing more last minute coverage than we expected and she was accommodating and flexible to make sure our dog got the love and care he needed when we were away. We cannot recommend her more!
Caitlin was wonderful and took great care with my pup. She was so good about understanding my specific needs for my dog’s walks and brought back a very happy a tired pup. I look forward to working with Caitlin again and I know my pup will love to have her walk her again, too! Highly recommend : )

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Venice on Rover is $22.2 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 .
As of August 2026, there are 19,029 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Venice. 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 your Venice. 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 Venice.

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 Venice. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 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.
