“Ginger has been amazing with my dog! Her availability is amazing and she has helped me a ton when it comes to last minute bookings. My schedule at the hospital is crazy and I often work longer hours and I know that my dog is being cared for and loved by her when I am not home. I can’t recommend her enough!”

About: I have experience pet sitting for friends and neighbors since high school and would love caring for your pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I currently have a job but my time is very flexible due to me being an on demand worker! I am able to stay for as long as you need and do many walks I am good with following whatever routine your dog might have including feeding, walking, playing, fresh water ect. As for my pets I have 3 sweet cats and 1 dog who I love spending time with. They are very happy and loved.

About: I’ve been an animal lover since I can remember, began working with them in my teens, and am excited to continue building connections and care for pets in my community. I have a flexible work schedule and enjoy being productive and active in my free time. I’m here to help in any way I can! Safety and trust are paramount to me.

About: I've been lucky to be raised in a dog household and have always been surrounded by dogs- both big and small! I truly treat every dog as my own and give them the love and care they deserve. I have experience with large breeds (I had a great Dane growing up!), puppies and senior dogs. I work fully remote so I'll be at home most of the day to care for and play with throughout the day. I'm available most weekends when I'm not traveling a few times throughout the year. I have an elderly dog, Titus, who has lived with other dogs most of his life and gets along well with all animals (except those pesky squirrels!). I have a fenced in yard where, weather-depending, I leave the door open to allow them to go in & out as they please. I like to take my dog on walks around the neighborhood almost daily and we'd love to have a friend join us!
About: I’ve taken care of my own pets my whole life. I enjoy walking and cuddling with them. I’ve taken care of family and friends pets for the past 5 years. I currently work from home. I can take a lunch break to walk or check on your furry friend and give them full attention in evenings, mornings and weekends. I don’t plan to have pets in my own home. I have experience taking care of my own pets and can provide love and attention.
“Audrey was amazing! She really saved me when I had a last minute need. She does great with Billie, is SOO communicative and sends plenty of pictures! Definitely recommend her!”
About: I’ve cared for various dog and cat breeds/personalities throughout my life, I love them all! I have some experience administering medications to dogs and cats. I am patient and consistent when it comes to following rules or a routine. I will treat your babies like they’re my own! My daily routine includes caring for my 3 kitties by playing with, cleaning up after, and feeding/watering them; I’d love to do the same for your pets! I’m familiar with special diets and administering various forms of medication, as my cats and other pets I sit, are on medicated diets and take additional medications. I currently have open availability, save a few social obligations over then next two months, but I’m flexible and communicative so we can always discuss timelines! I treat other’s spaces with care and consideration, I like to be respectful above anything else. I love all animals and treat the pets I sit with the same care I do my own.
About: What sets me apart is that I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages and energy levels, from playful puppies and young dogs who need extra patience and consistency to senior pets who may need a slower pace, medication reminders, extra bathroom breaks, or additional attention. I’m also happy working with shy, anxious, or nervous pets and always let them warm up to me at their own pace. I believe the little things make a big difference—keeping pets on their normal routine, providing plenty of play and affection, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. Most importantly, I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal. I take that responsibility seriously and strive to give every pet the same love, patience, and attention I would want for my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m dependable, flexible, and able to provide consistent walks, playtime, attention, and loving care throughout the day. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment while following each pet’s routine. I give plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection, while respecting their individual needs.

About: I am a dog and cat owner. I am very responsible and fun. I think that pets are not just “pets” and that they are family and should be taken care of as so. I have experience watching three different families animals. I watched a families dog for 3 months when they went over seas. I try my best to be flexible but I do attend nursing school. Outside of my classes I typically have an open schedule. I am dependable when it comes to being punctual and completing any and all tasks.

I am also comfortable with any age of the animal that I am taking care of. I work from home and build my own schedule. I have flexibility in my schedule to take pets to dog parks and out for a long walk. I respect that pets are most comfortable in their own space with their own smells and routines. I follow your instructions closely — from feeding times and walk routes to any quirks or commands your pet knows. I treat your home with care and always leave it exactly as I found it.
About: I have always loved dogs ever since I was a child. I grew up around dogs and took care of family and friend’s dogs. I have taken puppy training classes and helped with senior dogs medicine intakes. I have my own dog, Arthur, and try to make sure we have a fun and enriching day every day. Every day with my own dog is 24/7 dog care. I work remotely 99% of the time so I am available pretty much any time to care for your dog. I wake up around 6:00 am on weekdays so early mornings are not a problem for me. I am great with schedules and routines. For pets in my care I take them on walks, take them to a fenced in back yard, or allow them to socialize with friend’s dogs if this has been discussed. I am a big fan of enrichment activities and learning what motivates your dog.
About: I’ve been a full-time professional nanny, pet care provider, personal assistant, and house manager for 29 years. Since 1998 I have been assisting families in taking care of their homes, pets and children. I've performed various housekeeping and house management responsibilities. I will provide excellent care if you select me as your care provider! I'm clean, organized, reliable, love animals and can provide several references in regards to the care I provide. As you can see in my photos: I love animals! Farm animals too! Riding horses, petting goats, you name it. I’ve even done goat yoga. Lol From the time I could walk I was petting kittens and chasing after dogs. Most weekends I’m available to provide pet care and throughout the week I work part-time mostly in the afternoons, though I can flex my schedule when I want to. Currently and over the past five years I’ve worked for a family providing weekday care for their two cats. I’m currently looking to add a few additional families for ongoing care and lunch time drop-ins. Also I will continue to offer short-term, occasional care. I can provide daily visits, walks, transport to vet appointments, and overnight care in the clients home.

On top of caring for my family’s pets over the last 16 years. I work full-time with several days working from home. I know how important an animals schedule is and would do everything to maintain that so the pet’s routine is not affected. My dog and kitten get everything the want and everything I think they need 🤣. Leaving your animal in the trust of me would guarantee that the things you want done for your family are completed. These can include walks, playing with certain toys, or the use of certain leashes or collars.
About: As your pet's second best friend, I offer tailored care, genuine love, and a paw-sitively unforgettable experience! I am well educated in dog training, ensuring they’re mentally and physically stimulated, to overall pet health. I take care of my dog to the fullest extent, your dog will be treated all the same as a new member of the pack! To ensure safety and health, we don’t play right after eating to avoid bloat, I am very conscious of heat on their paws when walking on different surfaces, I avoid rawhide treats and go with homemade or very natural treats instead, and those are just scratching the surface of do’s and don’ts! I keep a structured but flexible routine, which allows me to give your dog plenty of attention, exercise, and consistency. I prioritize walks, potty breaks throughout the day, and lots of playtime and enrichment. I’m home often and very intentional about making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether your dog needs structure, cuddles, or high energy engagement, I adapt to their personality and routine to make their stay feel as close to home as possible! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a well-socialized dog, Dilo, who has a background in working in high stress environments to not be reactive. Nonetheless, I always do slow introductions to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. If needed, I can crate or provide separate spaces for rest and decompression. Inside my home, I maintain a clean, structured environment with plenty of space for play and relaxation. I closely monitor interactions, follow feeding instructions carefully, and stick to your dog’s routine as closely as possible so they maintain some sense of routine while being away from 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 Visalia. 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.

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.

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.
