“We were in town to visit the National Parks and Kendra did an incredible job with our skittish dog. She was able to build trust quickly and get her the exercise she needed. I appreciate her patience and professionalism. 10/10 would recommend to anyone who may be passing through and needing someone trustworthy!”
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover with over 9 years of experience providing dependable pet sitting and dog walking services. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I have experience caring for both large and small dogs, cats, and a wide variety of breeds, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your pet is a playful puppy, a senior who needs extra patience, or a high-energy dog that loves long walks and active play, I’m happy to tailor my care to their individual needs. As the owner of three high-energy pets, I’m very comfortable managing active animals and understand the importance of exercise, mental stimulation, consistency, and positive reinforcement. I’m confident handling energetic walks, play sessions, feeding schedules, and maintaining your pet’s daily routine. Whether you need drop-in visits, dog walking, overnight care, or extended pet sitting, you can count on me to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for your furry family members. I also believe communication is key, so I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout your pet’s stay, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make sure every pet feels comfortable, loved, and cared for as if they were my own. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! Im currently working part time and going to school but I am flexible most of the time most weekdays. I love talking early morning walks :) As I said before, I love animals, so if I was housesitting, and I spend as much time as possible, bonding with your animal. I will require specific instructions in order to take care of your animal to the best of my ablility
About: I've taken care of a variety of animals from birds, cats, and dogs. I like to send pictures and spend quality time with the animals. I'm currently off work for the summer and have availability to check in multiple times on your pet! I will treat them as my own. I have a fenced in backyard, doggy door in one of my rooms, I can easily let pets in and out of my slider door.
“Our meet and greet and first walk with Isabelle was wonderful! She was very kind and receptive of our goals for socialization with these walks. I am looking forward to the many more walks to come for our puppy!”
“Misty did a great job with our two Pomeranians. She sent us a couple pictures of them on the leash during the walk. She was trustworthy and left our place secured when she finished the walks. We’d definitely use Misty again for our dogs!”
About: I’ve grown up caring for both dogs and cats and have years of experience with animals. I currently have cats of my own and understand how important it is to keep pets happy, safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m responsible, patient, and love giving pets plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I’m flexible and open to requests that fit within my schedule! My main focus is Rover and providing the best care possible for your pets. I’m happy to work with your needs and find a schedule that works well for both you and your pets. I’m not able to have dogs stay in my home because I have cats. I prefer to care for dogs in their own home, where they can stay comfortable and in their familiar environment. If your dog just needs a walk, some exercise, or time outside, I’d also be happy to take them to a local park or on a hike! 🐶🐾💕
About: Ive been watching dogs for several years now. I enjoy helping others and making things convenient when it comes to watching their furry loved ones. It feels like the least someone can do. I do work full time, 3 days a week 12 hrs shifts in a hospital so I do have several days off. If you work with me, I'll work with you (: I have experience with numerous breeds of dogs. Big dogs, smaller dogs, active puppies. Teach me their routine and any good-to-know tricks and they'll have my best interest.
“It’s been 3 days since Arianna and I started walking my two dogs together. Arianna is walking My 14 weeks old puppy Boo and I’ve been walking Kasper my almost 10 year old dog. My intent from booking Arianna was to encourage a better bonding between my two dogs through the time they’re spending walking. True that it’s been only 3 days but I can see a noticeable warming up between the two dogs. Arianna’s approach is so calming and soothing. Her soft voice is what Boo needs to calm down. She is incorporating basic training techniques to calm Boo while walking. I am very happy to have found her on Rover and be working with her.”

Michael is AMAZING! My CJ is a Belgium Malinois and doesn’t take quickly to people. Well CJ has loved Michael from the very beginning! Michael is amazingly patient and understanding. CJ has a lot of needs and Michael has embraced all of them and helped make CJ happy with all this extra exercise that CJ craves!! CJ is a beast and Michael handles him very well! CJ has already learned Michael’s name and puts his harness on to go to work (on a long walk), it’s the sweetest thing!! I have now hired Michael to walk CJ at least 3x a week!! I 100% recommend Michael!
Jennifer goes above and beyond!! I am a repeat customer and I am very satisfied with her care and devotion to walking my 2 fur babies. We had the heaviest and steady rainfall every time she was scheduled to walk the dogs and she never canceled. She followed through with the responsibility rain or shine. Thank you Jennifer 👍🏼😊

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 Visalia. 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.

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.
