“Tatjana was really fantastic with my dog. She took her time to get to know my dog during the meet and greet. She has an understanding of dogs and what they need. Definitely recommend her and will be using her services again. Thank you so much.”
“Maria is wonderful, so kind and thoughtful. She would arrive early on hot days to maximize the walk before temps increased, which I really appreciated. Maria helped me with my pup while I was recovering from foot surgery, and I couldn’t have done the past two weeks without her.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Courtney was amazing and helped out on very short notice with my wild puppy! She was a great communicator, kept me updated clearly throughout the stay, and made me feel completely at ease. I really appreciated her flexibility and care. 5 out of 5 stars — I will definitely book with her again!”
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, dogs, cats, small pets and I’m known for being calm, patient, and detail-oriented. I specialize in in-home care so your pet stays relaxed in their familiar space. I’m comfortable with seniors, puppies, and anxious or shy pets, and I follow your routines exactly (feeding, meds, potty schedule, exercise). My schedule allows me plenty of time for quality pet care! I’m available most mornings and evenings. I do work part time and have my kids week on week off so between work and kids I make time for pet walks and pet care when I have my kids. When I don't have my kids, I have more available hours and can-do house sitting locally in the placer county area. I take caring for pets in their own home very seriously and always treat your space with respect. I follow your routines exactly ~ meals, walks, meds, and bedtime ~ so your pets feel calm and secure while you’re away. I keep everything tidy, lock up carefully, and provide regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your home and pets are safe and well cared for. My goal is to make your time away completely worry-free.
About: I have been a lifetime pet parent and now I’m sitting full time. I am use to small to medium breeds, I enjoy walks around the neighborhood, play time and I do homework outside to the pups get more run time. I also can do Poppins for any type of animals. I’m a full time on line student so I’m almost always home. I love animals. I like to play with them in the yard or cuddle up on the couch. I either walk them when needed or when it is safe to do I don’t like to take any dogs out on hot pavement unless they’re wearing shoes. I am very respectful of my clients home and even willing to do small chores while gone.. I do enjoy being outside and playing ball with the dogs. Or lazing outside with them
“Laura was amazing! I have a high energy puppy, she took her for a nice walk. My puppy came back tired & mellow for the rest of the day! Will use her again! Puppy loved her too!”
About: I’ve always been a people person and an animal lover! I enjoy getting to know new people and their furry friends, and animals tend to warm up to me pretty quickly! I have experience caring for both big and small dogs, as well as a kitten, and I’ve loved getting to know all their different personalities. I’m a friendly, patient, and responsible college student who loves making connections with both people and animals. Whether it’s going on walks, playing, giving lots of attention, or just keeping your pet company, I want them to feel happy, comfortable, and loved! I also know how important it is to feel connected to your pets while you’re away, so you can definitely expect regular updates, cute pictures, and little check-ins from me! I want you to feel just as comfortable with me as your pet does. My goal is to make pet care a fun, positive, and stress-free experience for everyone involved! 🐾 I’m currently a Psychology student at Sacramento State, where I balance school, a part-time job, and extracurricular activities! Although my weekdays are pretty structured, I still have time to fit pet care into my routine. I’m generally available on Mondays and Wednesdays after 5:00 PM, Tuesdays and Thursdays during select breaks or later in the evening, and Fridays after 1:30 PM. My weekends are much more flexible, with availability throughout the day on Saturdays and Sundays! I’m great at managing my time and planning ahead, so I’ll always make sure I have enough time to give your furry friends the attention they deserve! Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in visit, or some quality playtime, I’d love to make pet care part of my week. 🐾 I currently offer pet care exclusively in my client’s home, since I’m unable to host pets in my own home! I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable, so I do my best to keep them happy in the environment they’re already familiar with. I always make sure to follow each owner’s instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special routines their pets may have. I’m also big on keeping things clean, organized, and making sure your home is treated with respect! I love giving pets plenty of attention and affection, but I also understand that every animal has their own personality and boundaries. You can expect regular updates, cute pictures, and check-ins from me so you never have to wonder how your furry friend is doing! My goal is for both you and your pet to feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. 🐾💕
“John went above and beyond for our Rose while we were out of town for 9 days during the holidays. Always taking the time to make sure rose was comfortable with him, took her on longer walks, was consistently on time so she could stay in her routine. I’d love to work with John again!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life—from growing up with family pets to caring for my own as an adult—giving me years of hands-on experience and a deep understanding of their needs, behavior, and personalities. I’m a true dog-person and absolutely love being around them—they bring so much joy and companionship to everyday life. Sadly, I’ve had two of my own dogs pass away after living long, happy lives, but through that, I’ve gained valuable experience in providing the special care and attention older dogs often need. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely love. 💞 First time using Rover? Use this link before you book for $20.00 off: https://www.rover.com/sit/rubyb72826 Furthermore, I’m a Registered Nurse (who stays home full-time with my kids now)… however, I have experience administering medications to pets and will ensure your doggie gets any needed medicine while you’re away. I love caring for humans and pets alike, and would love to walk and/or board your sweet fur-babe while you’re away. As a stay-at-home mom with a lovable Shih Tzu of my own, caring for pets is a natural part of my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day and already spend lots of time walking, playing, and giving attention to my dog—so welcoming your furry friend into our routine comes naturally and with lots of love. I intentionally keep my bookings limited so each dog gets plenty of individual attention and feels like part of the family. At our home, every fur-babe is welcomed like a member of our family. Upon arrival, they’ll be given time to explore and settle in comfortably, at their own pace. I strive to create a warm, stress-free environment filled with cozy nooks, comfy beds, and plenty of playtime in our large back yard. The neighborhood also has a large park I can walk them to for some exercise and extra sunshine. I’ll ensure they have a familiar routine and are given lots of attention, from gentle belly rubs, to snuggles on the couch. I love sending photos and updates to keep you connected! You can rest assured knowing your pet is happy, safe, and surrounded by love while you’re away. Pets can sleep in an enclosed area with blankets and a bed or in a crate, if preferred.

“This was Sonjia’s first time walking our dog, Nico, and she did a wonderful job. She took him on two walks on Thursday and another on Friday, and she was punctual, professional, and easy to communicate with throughout. Nico responded really well to her right away. He is an older dog and the heat can tire him out quickly. He came back from each walk tired in a good way, and it was clear she handled him with care and attention. We felt very comfortable trusting her with him and would happily book her again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Whitney
I can't recommend Catarina enough. She's incredibly conscientious — always on time, always communicative, and it's clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she walks. My dog Hazel absolutely adores her, which says everything. If you want someone reliable, dependable, and truly great with animals, look no further.
I have only been using Cay for a couple of weeks now, but so far she has been very consistent and when one of us have something that comes up, we rearrange our schedules together. My dog, Wrangler, loves her and looks so forward to his walks with Cay! Several neighbors have commented how beautifully they walk together. Thank you, Cay!
Maria is wonderful, so kind and thoughtful. She would arrive early on hot days to maximize the walk before temps increased, which I really appreciated. Maria helped me with my pup while I was recovering from foot surgery, and I couldn’t have done the past two weeks without her.
If you need a pet sitter/dog walker, without hesitation I highly recommend River. River comes with experience volunteering at an animal shelter and having dogs throughout her life. From the start, River kept me informed upon her arrival, start of walk, took photos during the time she was with my dog, and return time and route. She would also spend some time with me after my dog’s walk to answer any questions I had and make sure my dog had some water and a little treat before she left. River is a very kind person who genuinely cares for dogs. I was truly impressed and grateful she was able to help me out in a crunch. It was a relief to know while I was out of pocket on a medical issue , my dog was still able to have a great time on his daily walks and “sniff-ari” with someone I am comfortable and confident with. My dog is special needs (blind and deaf) and River provided a peace of mind for me with her dog handling skills, and fun and luv on walks for my dog. I will definitely hire River the next time I need a pet sitter.
Happy to have Jacob as an occasional dog walker for my girl Jellybean! Great communication, quick to respond and follows through. Was so flexible for rescheduling multiple times when my work schedule changed. Jacobs is friendly, eager to help and seems very attentive and respectful towards animals. Thanks Jacob!

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 Whitney. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.
