About: Hi! I’m Carol and I’ve been taking care of animals my entire life. My love for animals led me to earning a Bachelors of Science degree in Animal Medicine and I am a licensed veterinary nurse (CVTg). I worked 13 years in general practice, surgery, orthopedics, internal medicine, cardiology and emergency. From puppies to seniors, nervous/anxious or special needs - I welcome all dogs. While we all want our pups to be healthy forever, my background offers the unique ability to provide expert elevated care and guidance if needed. With me, you’re not just getting a dog walker, you’re getting a lifetime of professional training, knowledge and elite skill set. My schedule is flexible for weekdays and weekends and I can often accommodate same day requests. Trained in administering oral, injectable, topical medications, I can coordinate schedules should your pet need medication at a specific time(s). Just let me know what’s needed and we can make it happen! Having worked wildlife, zoo animal, marine animal, farm animal, equine and small animal medicine - I’ve seen all sides of animal behavior. What matters most, to not only the animal but to the owner as well, is always trust. I will always take my time to understand your pets personality and routine. Consistency and patience is key. I’m not their trainer or behaviorist (though I do have training in both) - I’m there to be a friend and caregiver. That doesn’t mean I can’t handle the anxious or unruly furry friends - I love a skeptic and the advanced behavioral training and handling I have under my belt makes me particularly suited for the spicier personalities.
“I couldn’t be happier with Keith as Desmond’s dog walker. He’s always on time, super reliable, and makes scheduling walks so easy. We always get photo updates during every walk — giving us peace of mind that Desmond is in great hands. More than anything, Desmond loves him! Tail wagging, and pure excitement every time Keith comes to the door. It’s clear Keith genuinely cares about the dogs he walks, and it’s not just a job for him. Highly recommend Keith to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive walker”
“Jessica was outstanding! She was available on NYE when I needed last minute help. She even came to the house during the day and met with me and Bowie for a meet and greet before she came back that evening on her own. She went above and beyond with sending me updates as well as photos and videos, and even did other things like refill his food and water and remove his collar once he was in for the night (as I requested). My dog instantly was comfortable around her and you can see that she is very professional and passionate about her job. 10/10 recommend, she was so kind and a true life saver!”
“John was awesome with my dog! He sent so many pictures and they both looked so happy to be on their walk together. I really appreciate John treating my pup like his own and keeping me posted on their progress and adventures together. Thank you John!!!”
“First time meeting Petey. She is great! He was a little reluctant to walk, he barked at first. Food motivated so a little treat at introduction and now he knows who she is, and it was a really good first time walk. 👍🏼😊”
“This app does not do justice with tipping because Erin is just downright amazing. Thank you for taking care of my little man and his home so well and sending me the best photos of him.”
“I left on vacation for a week and April took amazing care of my dog, Rocky. She was reliable, attentive, and kept me updated the whole time. I came home to a Rocky happy and well fed. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend her for anyone needing a trustworthy and loving dog sitter!”
About: I have 10+ years of pet sitting experience. I love walking and am happy to provide your pup with the exercise they need. I also specialize in senior dog care including medication administration. I am home full time so I can give your pet all of the love and attention they need. I am a very active person. I live in a pet friendly apartment with an outdoor space. I am happy to learn and adjust to the needs of each unique animal.
About: Hi! My name is Lindsey! I have been pet sitting for over five years now along with working other jobs. I am now dedicating more of my time to pet sitting as I love animals and showing them care and love is far more fulfilling to me than anything else. I am excited to have the time to spend with and care for your pets. In the past I have cared for all different types of animals and dog breeds. From Great Danes to Pomeranians to cats and guinea pig, I have cared for them all. I am experience with caring for senior dogs, puppies and dogs with medical issues who need medications and a bit of extra attention. I also have expertise caring for multiple pets at once. I would be so grateful to care for your home and loved ones while you are away! I am currently making a career shift and have a completely open schedule meaning I can be there when ever you and your pet need me. I have no pets of my own so I am able to stay in the home or makes frequent trips to the home, depending on what your would like or need me to do. While staying in the home I can also do any house hold chores that need to or you would like me to get done in your absence.
“Brian was awesome with our puppy! He brought him for a nice, long walk at the park. Archer had tons of fun and was ready for a nap afterwards! He cant wait for their next walk together! 🐾”
“Alexis is a wonderful dog sitter! She was super communacative and reliable in her check-ins which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. It’s obvious she’s a true animal lover and was very sweet with my dog, she did an excellent job- I’d definitely book with her again and highly recommend!”
“There are not enough nice things I can say about Jessica! She was great with Keyser! Keyser is a senior and can be a little tricky to care for. But, he bonded with Jessica instantly and we knew he was in great hands! We highly recommend Jessica!”
About: I have been a lifelong cat owner, throughout childhood and into my adulthood until present day. I have experience volunteering in cat socialization in animal shelters, domestically and internationally. I am only doing seasonal work at the moment so I will have plenty of free time to spend with your fur family during the winter months! All plastic debris picked up off the floor and into the trash at all times. Doors to potentially hazardous areas closed at all times. Bowl always full of yummies. Lots of playtime with toys.
About: I approach each pet like you would a human by meeting their needs with love. I keep a clean house as well as the fur baby. I am very accommodating and friendly. I request at least 3 days notice unless an urgent need arises. I have experience with training dogs/cats. I’ve house sat for pet owners and cleaned. I’ve even taken care of exotic pets. I’ve worked with rescues who shy away from people. Let’s have a meet with your fur baby and discuss if I can meet your needs. I treat each fur baby like family! I ask to meet up so that the animal feels a sense of trust with me before you part for your journey away. I’d also like to meet you and put your mind at ease.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Avon-by-the-Sea
We have a reactive sheepadoodle around cars and dogs. She can be challenging to walk but Micheal was able to successfully walk her for 30 minutes all week! He was also very flexible when we had to extend our stay. We will definitely be contacting him again and highly recommend Micheal!
I have been using Erin as my dog walker for years now and she is amazing. Jett truly enjoys his time with her and their lovely walks. Erin is reliable, responds quickly to messages, and is very punctual. I highly recommend utilizing Erin for your pets needs because her services go above and beyond.
We are so happy we found Kathy and John. We were staying in Ocean Grove for the week with our dog, Harley, and needed a last minute dog walker. Away from home, we turned to Rover and saw all of their positive reviews. We couldn’t agree more. They were flexible and communicative. We loved seeing the pictures of Harley and were relieved she was being well taken of while we were away.
Jessica was outstanding! She was available on NYE when I needed last minute help. She even came to the house during the day and met with me and Bowie for a meet and greet before she came back that evening on her own.

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 .

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 Avon-by-the-Sea. 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.

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 Avon-by-the-Sea. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
