About: I have had dogs in my life since I was five. I have walked the small dogs at once, I can give medication, I can play, I can pet, I can cuddle with them all. I am a teacher. I will be working summer school starting in June. I have a short 4 hour day. I will have plenty of time to spend with your pet. In July I will have a lot of free time. I can't care for your pet at my condo, as I don't have a yard and I rent. I can come to your place and stay or visit your pet at your place and then go for walks/have outside time there.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs for 25 years! I grew up walking and feeding my dog throughout childhood. I even rescued a dog of my own during college and managed his health conditions with medication for years before his passing. I have experience with young dogs and senior dogs who may additional needs. I also have experience with reactive dogs and love creating safe spaces to offer your pets chances to try their best. Throughout my life I have helped with dog walking and dog sitting, and loved it! I recently moved back to Sacramento and am looking for some doggos to brighten my day while I work remotely. I’d love to give you peace of mind that your pet is cared for and entertained! I currently work remotely and have immense flexibility with my schedule! I can schedule my breaks and lunch around dog walks and play time. I only go into the office Wednesday mornings, but my office is walking distance away from my home and I’m truly not gone for long. I have very clear and effective communication. I am confident I can assure you your pet will be taken care of like family! I’m open to having your pet come to my home and roam around. I don’t have anything in reach of a dog and can keep an eye on them at all times. Or I can crate them if that’s preferred. I also don’t mind going to your home if that’s easiest. I can work remotely from anywhere and keep your dog company. I also would not be multitasking when it came to performing dog duties. On walks and during play time, your pet would have my undivided attention. I take your pet and home’s safety very seriously.

About: I have 8 years of experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, potty breaks, and giving pets plenty of love and attention. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, so I always follow the owner’s instructions closely and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures so you can see what your fur baby is up to! I’m a full-time college student with a flexible schedule, giving me plenty of time throughout the week to care for your pets. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and boarding in my apartment. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m stopping by your home, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, love, and care. I keep my Rover calendar updated with my current availability! I share my home with my best friend, who also has experience boarding and caring for dogs, and our Great Dane. We’re both comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and needs. I personally have experience handling reactive and dog aggressive dogs and understand the importance of boundaries, supervision, and safe separation. Because other dogs may be in our care, I always want to know about reactivity or behavioral concerns beforehand so we can provide a safe and comfortable environment for every pet.

About: Hi I'm Jess! I'm a dog lover with experience caring for dogs with seperation anxiety, dogs who need medication, reactive, and deaf dogs! Personally, a year ago I adopted a problem child dog from a local shelter and am currently trying to make more money to pay for his medical bills! I used to care for a deaf dog and am familiar with basic signs. Also, I worked as a professional dog walker for summers during college with a dog walking service called Sniff Seattle! Let me know if you'd like to chat about how I could best meet your pet care needs. I will note that I would need to bring my 2 year old basset lab mix with me for overnight stays. He is dog and human friendly, doesn't chew, or have accidents. He also has lived with a cat before and is not aggressive. Hello! I work from home so I am almost completely available to stay with your pet at all times. I walk Bartleby 3 times a day with one bonus potty break. I'm happy to play fetch or even run with your dog as needed. I am respectful of house rules and privacy. I do my best to leave the house cleaner than I found it while providing the best possible care for your pup or kitty! Be assured I'm an animal lover and will give your good boi or girl all the attention they need.

About: I love all animals, but especially dogs. I can come to your home for day care or over nights. I love to walk and am happy to take your pet on walks or play a game of catch. I have one well behaved shih tzu terrier who is friendly and loves to play with other dogs. I will dote on your pet as if it was my own, and you will have the peace of mind of knowing that your pet is well taken care of when you are away. I am available for day care and overnight boarding on weekdays and weekends. I love taking long walks so your pets will get plenty of exercise. I have many references I can provide on request. I will treat your pet like my own with lots of cuddles, fetch and exercise. I am very good at administering medications and getting even the pickiest eaters to eat their food.

About: I grew up with a black Labrador retriever, Benita, we had her for sixteen years. Growing up some of our favorite activities were going on long walks to the beach. In recent years, I have taken care of my friends dogs Archie and baby while they’ve been on vacation and have also lived with two cats. I work from home so I have a fairly flexible schedule. I am available mid day to go on walks and can be accommodating to your pets needs for shorter or longer walks. I live with a cat so my home is set up for cats. I have a litter box and non toxic plants in the home

About: What sets me apart is being home full-time to provide constant companionship, plus having a friendly French bulldog who's great with other dogs for socialization and play. My two teenage boys absolutely love pets and will provide even more attention and interaction throughout the day. My securely fenced yard gives pets plenty of safe exercise space, and I have specific experience with French bulldogs and brachycephalic breeds, including understanding their special needs around breathing, temperature, and exercise limits. This knowledge also helps me provide attentive care for senior dogs or pets with special requirements. Pet care fits seamlessly into my family's routine. I start with morning walks and feeding, then take natural breaks throughout the day for quick walks or play sessions, I provide pet care in both my home and clients' homes, depending on what works best for each pet and family. In my home, I have a securely fenced yard where dogs can play safely and get plenty of exercise. My friendly French bulldog loves having companions and is great with other dogs, so visiting pets get both human attention and canine socialization.

About: Use my promo code CORINP14452 for $20 off your first booking! Hi there! I’ve loved animals my whole life. I’ve had many cats, an Australian Shepard, a Maltese, hamsters, and even a snake. I have volunteered at a dog rescue, and I have experience walking and sitting all sorts of dogs— small, large, young and excited, old and a bit slower, trained, untrained. I've raised dogs and cats and have done the whole shabang- training, potty-training, cleaning up messes, etc. I understand things happen and am patient with them. I'm happy to play with your pets, take dogs on walks, and give them extra love while you are away! I am a clear, honest communicator. I want you to be aware if anything happens you need to know about to ensure the safety of your pet. I have been on your end of Rover, and I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet with someone you don’t know very well. So I will send consistent updates and pictures, and be available for any questions from you. I can’t wait to meet your furbaby! I will treat them as my own 🩵 I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I have a few meetings spread through the day, but most of the time, I can make drop ins/walks work with whatever schedule is needed. And if I am dog sitting, I will be home all day since I work from home. At my home, I have a fenced in yard. I will supervise any outside time. I will make sure the leash and collar are secured before going on a walk. I don’t put my face in their face, and allow them to take the lead on contact and interaction. I know I’m a stranger to them at the beginning, and know trust needs to be built!

FAQs for Dog Walking - West Sacramento

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in West Sacramento is $16 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $25 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 3,858 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across West Sacramento. 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 West Sacramento. 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.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in West Sacramento after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

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 West Sacramento. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 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.
