About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my dedicated focus on specialized developmental and medical pet care, ensuring your pet gets the precise care they need at every stage of life. While many sitters offer standard feeding and walks, I tailor my approach specifically to your pet's life stage, routines, and physical capabilities. I am currently working part time and have availability until 3PM M-F. Sunday: all day I work with special needs children (Autism) in their homes. I will be taking care of your pets at your home where they will feel the most comfortable. Walks will be local and if possible-long walks on trails. Details matter to me, so please be as detailed as possible. I will love your fur baby as my own. (Mine passed away 2 years ago.)
About: I’ve had multiple animals growing up, I’ve always been the friend/ family member that was asked to care for pets. I’m very patient and adapt very well to different routines and conditions. I only work three days out of the week so i’m pretty available for your needs! I have a dog of my own and he’s always had time to be walked and fed on time! My dog is a quiet shy guy, he free roams in the house is walked regularly and fed on time, I’ve mostly done check ins at the clients home, never had any issue following their routine with feeding or walking.
“Vanessa is AMAZING!! Great communication, timely, and caring!! Patient and understanding with our dog who has some behavioral issues. 100 percent recommend and would book again. Thank you 🙏.”
About: Hello! I’m Taylor :) I have worked for multiple families for about 10 years for dog walking, drop ins, etc. I provide my own transportation to and from homes for drop ins and walks. I also have experience working with rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters and more! Please message me with any questions you may have! :) I am currently off for the summer, and fully work from home doing freelance work so my schedule is completely open for anything, just ask! :) I will do whatever it takes to have the dog and owner have the happiest, most stress free time possible! I send frequent photos while I sit/walk the pup so you will never worry if they are in good hands!
“Natalia and Ilian were absolutely excellent! My Harlow had the best time with them and enjoyed her walks! Natalia and Ilian were consummate professionals- communicative, punctual, warm and friendly! I hate to leave my love bug, but happy to know she's in great hands!”
“I can’t recommend this dog walker highly enough! They are reliable, caring, and clearly have a genuine love for animals. My dogs are always excited to see them and come home happy, well exercised, and relaxed after every walk. If you’re looking for someone compassionate to care for your pets, I would absolutely recommend them.”
About: I've taken care and spent time with animals since I was young. I have one gorgeous husky of my own and have watched over my family/friends' dogs and cats many times. With years of hands on experience, I'm confident in caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and personalities! No matter the task, I always have an attentive and loving approach to make your pet feel their best. I am currently a second-year Rutgers student who is home for the summer, which gives me more than enough time to care for my pup and your cute pets as well! At my home, I have a deck and patio that my husky loves to hang out on. At the moment, I do not offer overnight boardings, however I do offer drop in visits, walks, and sittings. I can come to your house and walk, feed, and play with your pups (and/or kitties)!
About: A dog has no use for fancy cars, big homes, or designer clothes. A water logged stick will do just fine. A dog doesnt care if you're rich or poor, clever or dull, smart or dumb. give him your heart and he'll give you his. How many people can you say that about? How many people can make you feel rare and pure and special? How many people can make you feel extraordinary? At least one - ME! I have an extreme love for dogs. I will follow whatever rules you give me when it comes to caring for your furbaby because, like people, all of our animals have different personalities and needs. I love being outdoors and have experience in potty training, leash training, as well as training them to follow basic commands.
About: I grew up with animals all my life and would love to walk or visit with your fur babies when you need it! I work for an Emergency Veterinary Hospital and am very passionate about helping and caring for animals ❤️ I currently work full time at a Veterinary ER hospital but do work different hours and can usually work around my schedule! Just ask me what you are looking for :) I have the compassion, experience, and love for all animals that I won’t just take care of your pet, I will love them like they’re my own and provide the most positive experience not only for them but for you too. I am very active so I love going for walks or playing fetch, and I also love providing enrichment for your pet to keep them happy.
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Elizabeth is a great Pet walker and sitter. She has walked Toby every day for the past week, she is always on time to pick him up and he is always ready and happy to see her. After his walk he goes peacefully to sleep for a few hours so he is definitely getting exercise during the walk. She is flexible with the schedule and is open to changes. We will definitely use her services again. Thank you!”
About: I've had experiences with different type of animals and it's been super fun! From having a pet cat, rescuing a wild bird from a national park and help nurturing it back to health, to working with puppies and dogs at a doggy daycare and owning a pet bunny. I'm available Monday-Friday, with flexibility on weekends if we plan and coordinate :) Pls feel free to contact me for more information regarding weekend bookings! In my spacious apartment, your pet would be able to roam freely and comfortably. Being there as an emotional support, I will make sure your pet can stay happy and feel safe inside my home, as well as sending occasional check-ins with the parent :)
About: I will provide the best care possible for your dog. I grew up with so many pets so I understand the responsibility that comes with caring for another person's. As I have a dog of my own, I would treat the job as I would take care of my own, whether that's taking your dogs for a nice walk around the neighborhood or snuggling up on the couch and keeping them company and cared for while you're away, I'm the girl for it! My schedule is very flexible, so I am readily available to dog walk or to house sit if needed. I'll do my best to ensure you are happy and satisfied with who is taking care of your dog and you won't be disappointed! I work full-time, however in the summer I am extremely flexible and can be available whenever I am needed. Let me know if you would like someone to care for your pet and we can work out a schedule that works best! I make sure to give my pets lots of attention and love the same as I would do for your pets as well as follow the instructions I’d be given.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Avenel
We had an excellent experience with Mackinzie walking our dog, Cooper, for 4 days, twice a day. She was punctual every single day, dependable, and took great care of Cooper. We really appreciated how she kept us updated after each walk and shared pictures and all the important information, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. She was caring, responsible, and clearly treated Cooper with love and attention. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog walker and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and reliable. We would definitely book her again!
Eva is so wonderful!! She is timely, communicative and very flexible. She was easy to coordinate with and book when we were looking for a dog walker while our dog was staying with my parents. We are very thankful to have found Eva for our dog and appreciate how friendly and caring she is!
Veronica and her husband Ryan were amazing, Shadow hit it off with them immediately! I will be using them for boarding in September and they were very accommodating when I said I wanted to do a couple walks with them before boarding to build a relationship with Shadow. I am so happy I found them and would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for care for their pets.
Gianna is incredible! She is our Anakin’s absolute favorite. He is always so happy when we come home from work. Shes been with us on Anakin’s puppy journey from drop in visits to now walks and she’s great. Always gives updates, sends photos, and is so kind. 10/10 recommend!
Hannah was amazing with my Tallulah! First, she was available on such short notice and really helped me out when another sitter cancelled. She went above and beyond and made sure Tallulah was loved and cared for. I felt completely at ease. She was so accommodating since my pup is dealing with a few health issues right now. She wrote a long note at the end and sent lots of pictures. I highly recommend Hannah and definitely want to work with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Avenel on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 27,480 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Avenel. 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 Avenel. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Avenel.

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 Avenel. On Rover:
- 87% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
