“Lisa saved us and Oakley because I had to be gone much longer than planned. She knows the drill with Oakley and he seems to feel very comfortable with her. She's a keeper for sure!”
About: I have been a pet lover my whole 44 years. I have owned cats and dogs of many breeds, ranging from kitten care to senior pooches needing med regimens. Currently loving on a chinchilla at home, I am delighted to care for pets of all shapes and sizes. This is currently my only gig, so I have all the time to spend with your loved ones. Always happy to discuss complicated pet needs. Care in a client home is at each client’s discretion. You tell me what your love needs and I’ll get it done. You can trust me to communicate important issues and just take care of the small stuff.
“Eli did a fantastic job with my dog, Spot! Eli showed up on time, paid close attention to details about caring for Spot, appeared genuinely interested in Spot’s personality and needs, was kind and caring while demonstrating an ability to manage Spot with safety in mind. I will definitely rebook with Eli!”
“Mel was amazing and patient. Got the dog great exercise and the pup came home happy! She’s very communicative and attentive to the individual dog’s comforts, needs, and preferences.”
About: When neighbors or friends need a dog sitter, I always raise my hand! I love long walks, playing fetch and canine cuddles. I have experience with all ages (young pup to senior). I am taking time to figure out my next professional chapter. While I do that, I have lots of time to put energy into something I love: being with animals. I'm well-versed in using multiple-dog-lead leashes, spending quality time with pets, and being bad cop when a fur baby tries to get an extra feeding.
“Elizabeth has been great for walking our dog when we have long work days. She’s very communicative and shares adorable pictures. Our dog seems to really enjoy her walks with Elizabeth. Highly recommend!”
About: I currently have been working at a doggy day camp/boarding center for about five months now and I love it! I’ve grown up with and been around cats and dogs my whole life (so technically almost 20 years of experience with cats/dogs)! I also work with reactive dogs so I understand them and how to properly handle them. I have done all the shifts at my job but mostly do the mornings so I’m very comfortable with feeding and administering medications if needed! I have handled the smallest to the biggest of dogs, most breeds but all sizes and ages! Before starting at this job, I did some pet sitting and dog walking too. I’m currently working 40 hours a week. I have pretty normal days off, Tuesdays and Wednesdays, my normal shifts are 6-2, Thurs-Mon, sometimes they are different. I could do pretty much anytime on my days off and after my shifts when I do work! I will very regularly update my availability on here, you can also always reach out to me to ask and see if I am available if the calendar says I’m not! :) I have a 10-year-old female Ragdoll that’s been around most of my life, (she is mine), and I live with my parents who have two English Bulldogs! I always make sure that her litter box is clean and fresh for her. I regularly check her food and water to always make sure she has some. She is a quiet independent girl so caring for her isn’t too complicated. My parents dogs are a little bit more complicated. Both of them have daily meds that they need to get and I give it to them when I am needed to. I feed them and take them to go potty and walks very normally!
About: I have cared for dogs and cats throughout my lifetime. I am a pet-assisted therapy researcher and truly believe in the mind and body benefits of caring for animals. The human - animal bond is very real and knowing my dog is being cared for by a responsible and caring individual while I am away is so important. Hence, I provide the same excellent care I expect of someone caring for Soley. I am a semi-retired university professor and I walk my dog every day on average 5 miles. I provide clean and caring pet services for family and friends. I have excellent references. I am a neat conscious and very clean person. I believe in providing my pets the same standard of cleanliness as I do myself and other guests. I am mindful of dogs interacting with other dogs and people when walking them. They are always on a leash.

About: I truly love animals. I have been dog/cat walking/sitting for many years for clients, friends, and family. I am currently studying right now so I will be able to spend the time to care for your animal/s. I have owned many animals throughout my life. My last dog was a husky.

I will keep your animal clean warm and nourished. I will make sure one has the proper amount of exercise. I will also create standards and rules so that your animal can trust that I will keep them safe.
About: I have experience caring for pets of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I can help with feeding, walks, bathing, exercise, and daily care while making sure each pet’s individual needs and routines are followed. I’ve cared for both energetic and shy pets, as well as dogs with disabilities. These experiences have taught me the importance of patience, awareness, and building trust with pets who may need extra support. I always focus on creating a safe, comfortable environment where pets feel happy and cared for. I treat every animal like my own and take the time to understand their unique personality and needs. Communication is also very important. I’ll send regular updates and photos throughout your pet’s care so you can feel confident knowing they’re safe, happy, and in good hands! I’m currently building my pet care business, so I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time and attention to pets in my care. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week, and I also offer boarding depending on availability. I always try to be flexible and work with your pet’s routine and needs. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet. I pay close attention to their behavior, body language, and routine so they feel secure and relaxed. I make sure pets are always supervised, in a safe space, and handled gently. I follow all instructions closely and keep routines consistent to reduce stress. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection so they stay happy and active.
About: I’m a 24 year old looking to expand my dog sitting business. I’m punctual, trustworthy, reliable and loving. I also have vet tech experience and am in school to become a veterinarian so you pet will always be safe in my hands. I’m very active so pets that need lots of exercise are no problem for me as I love to hike and run. I love all animals big and small so if you have cats or other pets I can care for them as well. I’m very neat and quiet and always leave the home looking better than when I came. I’m a non smoker and also don’t party so you won’t have to worry about your home while you are away. I’d love the opportunity to work with you and your pets.
“Aydin was incredibly responsive, flexible, and attentive to Moose! He went above and beyond to make sure he got the exercise that he needed while we were away, and seemed very capable of handling a larger, high energy dog like Moose. We loved getting all of the photos of Moose on their dog park outings and felt confident that he was in good hands!”
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats of every kind for more than five years. I don't own a pet myself but occasionally, friends and neighbors referring to me to take care of their loved ones 🐕🐈🐩.

She did a great job taking care of Cody while I was away. She was attentive, reliable, and kept me updated throughout the walks. Cody warmed up to her quickly, which gave me peace of mind. I really appreciated the care she showed and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

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 .

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.
