About: I love pets! More than human most of the time. I enjoy talking to them and learning from them, and playing! Your baby will be in very good hands with me! I am a student and can only work part time. This kind of work is not only ideal for my schedule and financial needs, its an opportunity to make new 4 legged friends! I am not able to host any furry friends. But I can walk them around their neighborhood. Hang with them in their home with their owners are away. I've cared for many different breeds with many different needs and I am more than happy to accommodate for whatever is needed.

About: I’m a huge animal lover of both cats and dogs! I’ve had experience training puppies and also caring, walking, crate training, and maintaining a healthy feeding schedule. I’m open any day of the week at any times and I’m able to come house sit. Most animals are comfortable in their own home so whatever works best for them.

About: I am a loving pet mom for 15 yrs and before and during that time I have helped many others with their animals. I can sit, check in and play with, and take for walks. I love animals and giving them attention because I know it is so important. I work from home so I love reasons to get out of the house and pet friends to keep me company at night. I work and stay 100% near the outskirts of Yuba City. My pets and their friends safety in #1 in my house and yard. I have a very large fenced in back yard and I have proofed it so not even very small dogs (like mine) can find a way out. I am an avid pet counter before doors are open and I double and sometimes triple check that the home is secured before I leave, we don’t want any babies to get out of their safe space.

About: Hello, my name is Chaniya (you can call me Niya, though). I work the night shift, so my schedule is a bit wonky sometimes. I would love to care for your pet even if I have to work. I’ve had all types of animals growing up; I’ve had frogs, bunnies, dogs, cats, turtles, and others. I can walk and (if needed) bathe your dogs. I can also teach them a few things. I’ve taught my dogs how to sit, stay, down, roll over, etc. I also know how to do some exercises for dogs to strengthen their front and back legs. I currently have a snake named Noodle. I would most likely watch them on my days off. Those days would vary but I can drop in just about any time. I work overnight from 5pm to 6am. I don’t work your typical Monday through Friday though. I live in a house but I would prefer to care for the pets in their home but I can crate them if need be.

My son, who is currently in college studying to become a veterinarian, will be readily available to assist at home. Concurrent with his schooling, Alex is licensed in Pet CPR and First Aid. If necessary, we both are experienced with administering medicine to different kinds of animals. Throughout my life, I gained experience handling cats, dogs, rabbits, reptiles, and farm animals. Our Current Residents; are a rambunctious, fun-loving, ready-to-play, five-year-old Sheprador (Dio), and 4 welcoming cats (Misty, Chestnut, Buttercup, Milkshake). For the safety of all animals in our wild kingdom, all animals must be up to date on their shots and are non-aggressive toward other pets. Unneutered males are welcome, however, we do not accept females in heat. Our schedules are very flexible, although we do request a one-day notice of cancellation. We look forward to meeting you and your fuzzy child. Welcome to the jungle, your pet is in good hands! Due to Covid, I am currently working at home, which allows me to have plenty of time to cater to your pet's various wants and needs.

In our home, pets are treated like royalty. Whether it is for attention and play, or food and water, all needs will be met with a smile. We have a fenced-in backyard with plenty of room to romp or do zoomies. Upon guests' approval, we may take dogs on a walk to our neighborhood park.

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: It’s like camp for dogs! Your dog can have a great vacation too. We know how important it is to have the fury family taken care of in order to relax while on vacation. We have always had our own pets and we have taken care of other peoples furry family members for years, We have fostered for Homeward Bound Golden Retriever Rescue for the last 25 years. If your pup is used to sleeping on a dog bed, or on the couch, or with people, they can do the same here with us. We won’t change the rules on them. We are well-versed in taking care of dogs with special needs or just simply providing TLC. When we have had fosters, we helped pups recover from surgery, given medications, adjusted pups to family life, trained and more. We just lost our sweet pup Cooper so we don’t have any pets at our house. This might be helpful if you have a dog that likes people all to themselves or if you have multiple dogs. Walks, car ride (wind in their hair) treats, playtime, attention, lounging in the fenced yard are all available. We both work at home so pups don’t have to be alone and can have all of their needs met. Reach out and tell us about your furry family and what they might need while you’re away. We would be thrilled to have them. We can work our schedule around what you furry family needs. Since we Work at hime and there are two of us someone can always be here if needed. We only serve one Family at a time. We don’t have meet and greets while your dog is with us. It’s all about them when they are here. We follow your instructions for walk, food, routines. You can read our references but it might be best to come to the house to meet us and see for yourself. It’s important to feel comfortable so you can relax while you are away. We take extra measures to lock the latch on the gate and use a double door system if we go in and out of the house.

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life, and I truly believe they’re one of the best parts of the world. I was a dog owner for over 10 years, and after losing my sweet girl to cancer, I really missed having furry friends around. That experience reminded me just how much joy and companionship pets bring into our lives. From dogs and cats to fish and hamsters, caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I’m a family guy with a comfortable home and a safe, secure environment where your pet can feel relaxed, loved, and right at home. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your furry family member with someone else. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pet gets plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and care. Whether your companion needs walks, drop-in visits, sitting, boarding, or simply some extra love and attention, I’m happy to help. I’ll treat your pet like part of my own family and make their safety, comfort, and happiness my top priorities. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged family member! 🐾❤️ I work part-time in the evenings and am available during the day to spend time with and care for your pets. While I’m at work, my wife and daughter are home and will be there to care for them. Your pets will always have someone at home with them, so they won’t be left alone. You can have peace of mind knowing your pets will receive care, attention, and companionship around the clock. I have a good-sized, secure backyard where dogs can safely enjoy some outdoor time, as well as a public walking path right behind my house for those who enjoy stretching their legs and getting some exercise. I love taking dogs for walks—it’s a great way for them to get fresh air, exercise, and enrichment while keeping them happy and comfortable. I always make sure pets are supervised, cared for, and treated like part of the family while they’re in my home.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was around 10 years old, starting with my own family dogs and being responsible for feeding them, letting them out, playing with them, and making sure they were taken care of while I was home. As I got older, I started pet sitting for friends and family and eventually for people I didn’t know personally as well. I’ve also helped my friend Jade with her pet-sitting clients and have watched pets for a previous manager. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, overnight care, and following each pet’s individual routine. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I’ll always treat them with the same love and attention I give my own. I typically work morning shifts and am usually done with work by 12pm at the latest, which gives me plenty of availability throughout the afternoon and evening for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and overnight care. My schedule can vary week to week, but I’m happy to work with you to make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need. I know how important it is to trust someone with both your pets and your home. I’ll always follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions you leave for me, including feeding, walks, medications, crate routines, and any household rules. I want your pet to feel as safe and comfortable as possible while you’re away, and I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and love.

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.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Wilson

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 2,937 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Wilson. 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 Wilson. 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 Wilson 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 Wilson. 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.
