“We had an amazing experience with xiaoting while we were in the hospital delivering our baby. She was incredibly flexible with our changing dates and pickup timing, which took a huge weight off our shoulders during such an unpredictable time. She went above and beyond by preparing Mocha’s food when needed and kept us updated with frequent videos and messages throughout her stay. It was so reassuring to see how comfortable, happy, and well cared for Mocha was. When we needed to extend her stay unexpectedly, she was extremely accommodating and treated her like he was her own dog. We could truly see in every video how much love and attention Mocha received, and it was clear that she genuinely enjoyed her time there. We are so grateful for the exceptional care she provided and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“여기 자연스럽고 따뜻한 영어 번역이에요: She is truly kind, and you can feel how much she loves dogs. My dog liked her immediately the moment they first met and followed her without even looking back. 😂 She also sends me photos and videos often, so I feel very reassured. I will definitely choose her again next time.👍🏻”
“I had just finished writing an extensive and detailed message, explaining how they were great with First timers using this kind of service, but then my phone froze and deleted that long detailed review and I’m not gonna take the time to do it again 🤣. Just know that they knew how to handle first timers. I highly recommend them.”
“Mr and Mrs Kim were the best sitters for my dog Juicy! I could tell he bonded with them well and enjoyed sitting on their lap and going for walks. I was sent pictures and videos daily while I was on vacation. We hope to rebook with them for future dog sitting!”
“Rengang’s whole family took great care of my high energy rescue! They had at least a few family members at home watching the dogs at all times, and all of them shared an amazing love of animals and willingness to fulfill the animals’ needs. They were also very quick to respond to questions with updates and reassurance, and I can tell my dog had a great time boarding. Will be returning for sure!”
“This was our second time leaving our dog with Steven and Roxie and it was just as great as the first! We knew our dog was in really good hands which allowed us to relax and enjoy our vacation. My dog was even very excited to see Steven when we were dropping her off, and she doesn’t normally get excited to see people. I would so much rather bring my dog to stay at their house vs a boarding facility because I know she will receive excellent care and I will get daily photos and updates! I would absolutely book again without hesitation. Thank you so much for taking care of Bodie!”
“This is my doggie's second stay with Jessica and I'm even more sold. She is as good as they come. I had a previous stay with a different boarder when Jessica was not available, and that boarder was less-than-stellar. It made me appreciate Jessica even more at how attentive she is to all the doggies that are boarded with her, and how easy-going and communicate she is. I feel that my doggie was in great hands in her care, and we will be back!”
“I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for Miumiu! From start to finish, the communication was clear, quick, and super friendly. Miumiu was treated like family and came back home happy, relaxed, and well-cared for. It gave me total peace of mind knowing she was in such loving and attentive hands. I will definitely be booking again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch care for their pets!”
“Liqiong was able to care for my cat, Bingsu, last minute and was so wonderful with her. She was very thorough and made sure Bingsu was comfortable the entire time. I'll be sure to bring her back next time!”
“Zeus is well taken care of. I trust that he is in great hands with Neicie and her family. I appreciate the updates and communication, helps me know he is having a great time with his friends. Thank you!”
“We've been bringing Peanut and Ino to our dog sitter for a while now, and I can honestly say she is one of the most attentive and caring people we've ever trusted with our fur babies. From day one, she took the time to learn each of their personalities, quirks, and individual needs — and that level of care has never wavered. What really sets her apart is how genuinely connected she gets with every dog in her care. Both Peanut and Ino absolutely love her, and the excitement they show every time she comes to pick them up. She gives each pup individual attention and makes sure they both feel safe, loved, and right at home. If you're looking for someone who will treat your dogs like family, look no further. We wouldn't trust Peanut and Ino with anyone else. Highly recommend!”
“Cooper had a great stay with Debbie and Will! He was there for a week and came back very happy. Debbie communicated well and sent pictures and videos that were fun. Cooper enjoyed playing with their sweet dog Reba, and it was clear they treated him like family.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for family and friends since I was a teenager, and animals have always been a big part of my life. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from newborn kittens and puppies to senior animals who may need a little extra patience and attention. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, basic routines, and making sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I also have a spacious home with a large backyard and a friendly small dog who loves having new company. I treat every pet I care for like they’re part of the family and understand how important it is to have someone you can truly trust with your pets. I’m home most of the day, so your pet will get plenty of attention and won’t be left alone for long periods of time. I typically take my dog out for a walk every few hours for some exercise and fresh air. I also live with my family, so even if I need to step out for an errand, there is usually someone home to keep your pet company. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and at home while they’re with me. I have a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time and a friendly dog of my own. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, or crate time if needed. I’ll always make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, care, and love while you’re away.
“This was my first-time using Josephine as a pet sitter. She was very responsive, welcoming and a really great caretaker for my dog! She sent daily updates and pics on how Ollie was doing, which was super comforting hearing about his activities throughout the day! I would definitely recommend her to take care of your fur-baby anytime.”
“Tammy and her family were amazing! We received daily updates with photos, which is extremely easing when you’re missing your furry friend. They do daily walks around the neighborhood and their extremely scenic hiking route in the mountains! When they’re not playing there are plenty of nap times that come with cuddles, personally I imagine my dog was loving every second of it! She offered premium services at an affordable price. I was worried, for a second, my pup wouldn’t want to leave because of how much Tammy made him a part of her family! Whenever I need to use this service again my first search will be for Tammy and hoping that she is available!! Thanks a bunch!”
“We had a great experience with Isabella as our dog sitter! She took our dog on walks and played with him, and he came home happy and well-rested. We could tell he had a wonderful time. We definitely want to book her again! Highly recommend! 🐶✨Thank you Isabella!!”
“Eric was super communicative about drop off and pick up time. He agreed to do a meet up before the dates needed to doggy-sit, which was very nice of him. When I went to pick up my pet, he even gave some suggestion to help my baby eat more since she wasn't eating because of the unfamiliar environment.”
About: Hi! I’m a fun, caring, and experienced dog lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs of all personalities, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or just hanging out and getting some extra attention, I’m happy to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m experienced with dogs and understand that every pup is different. Some are full of endless energy, while others are happiest taking it easy and getting plenty of cuddles. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on giving your dog the care and attention they deserve. I diligently walk my dogs every morning before work and I open up my availability in the evening to walk/dog-sit other dogs every single day! I like to make sure that my dog’s food pantry is fully stocked at all times and take the time to brush and groom them at least once a week. Their daily walks are crucial because they are super active huskies, and it also puts me in good shape to keep up with them. I also make sure that my client’s pets are comfortable and I provide lots of snacks and warm blankets for them to relax in my home.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Walnut
Caihua took great care of my new doggie, Mia. We did a meet and greet since I have never boarded any of my pets. Mia has only been with me for 2 weeks when she got boarded and Caihua was so good about sending videos of Mia playing with the other dogs, feeding time, and bedtime. It was an awesome first experience and I highly recommend Caihua. She might not speak English but uses a phone translator app and she communicated just fine with it in person. Texting through the app was easy and she kept me updated in how Mia was doing. Caihua was so great with Mia, that I was afraid she wouldn't want to come home with me after having such a great time interacting with the other dogs. Caihua will be my go to for future stays. Thank you Caihua for taking such great care of Mia and making me feel so comfortable about leaving her over a long weekend.
Mercedes did an amazing job taking care of my two pups for 4 nights. She was very communicative by sending pics and updates throughout the day. My pups looked so happy in all pics and videos she sent so I was comfortable they were fine and well taken care of. I would highly recommend and would rebook again. Thank you so much.
I left dogs with the same dog sitter I have continued to use since last year. I enjoy that she sends pictures of the dogs, it gives me assurance that they are doing well. In addition, Bailey continues to enjoy his time with Peaches, the dog sitter's young dog. I should note that Bailey is 12 years old but plays like if he were a puppy.
She did an amazing job at making my dog Wisconsin feel comfortable and safe. Kept me updated with pictures so it made me feel at ease knowing Wisconsin was in good hands. He had a great time and was very happy while in her care. Definitely will rebooking with Luliia 😁 Thank you so much!
I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for Miumiu! From start to finish, the communication was clear, quick, and super friendly. Miumiu was treated like family and came back home happy, relaxed, and well-cared for. It gave me total peace of mind knowing she was in such loving and attentive hands. I will definitely be booking again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch care for their pets!
Araceli did amazing with my two pups for a weekend stay. She provided plenty of picture updates throughout the day. She gave us a tour of her whole doggy day care house. We were beyond amazed of how big the space was and all the essentials needed that she had. Her doggy day care is cooled with A/C so we had no worries about our pups overheating in this summer heat. We will definitely be rebooking and would highly recommend Araceli for your pups!
Alice (Junyi) watched our two husky/shepherd mixes for two weeks while we traveled internationally. One of our pups had an injury scare the day before we left. Alice was accommodating, caring, and communicative, consistently sending us videos, pictures, and status updates multiple times per day to help us feel comfortable with his recovery. Both pups seemed to have a great time playing in the backyard, going on walks, and playing fetch, and overall seemed very comfortable and well cared for. We look forward to having Alice watch the pups again in the future!
Tammy is a wonderful sitter and my dog loves her! I booked a sitting very far ahead of time with many special requests, and she accommodated them all. She also communicated well before and during the sitting. She was very attentive to Teddy, and sent us many pictures and videos of him enjoying himself and even snuggling in someone's lap. I highly recommend booking with Tammy (:
We recently boarded our dog with Xueqing for a 2nd time and can't thank her enough for the incredible care she provided to Morgan. Leaving a pet is always stressful, but she treats Morgan like family. The communication was outstanding; we received daily videos and comprehensive reports on Morgan's new friendships, habits, and behavior- this level of transparency and genuine care is rare. Thank you for looking after our floof so well!
Lu is truly one of the best sitters we have ever had. She took such incredible care of my dog, and treated him like part of her own family. She has a beautiful home with a big grassy yard where my boy was able to run around freely, play ball, and enjoy tug-of-war with her. It made me so happy knowing he had so much space and attention while we were away. My boy is normally a very picky eater and often doesn’t finish his meals, but ever since he came back from staying with Lu, his appetite has been amazing. He has been eating so well, which tells me he felt comfortable, relaxed, and truly happy during his stay. Lu kept us updated, spent quality time playing and interacting with him, and clearly has a natural love for dogs. You can tell she really cares about every pet she watches. I felt completely at ease leaving my dog with her, and I would trust her again anytime. Highly, highly recommend!

94% of sitters in Walnut can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Walnut home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Walnut.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Walnut sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
