“Nicole is a fantastic dog walker! She is reliable, responsive and my dog absolutely adores her 🥰 I am so grateful for her help and would highly recommend her to anyone!!”
“Samantha has been an absolute lifesaver! She walks my dog Cooper once a day during the week while I’m at work, and I couldn’t ask for someone more reliable. She is always consistent and right on time, which gives me total peace of mind. What really stands out is how attentive she is—she always lets me know if anything seems off with Cooper and keeps me updated after each walk. She’s also very responsive whenever I reach out, which I really appreciate. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. I highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable dog walker!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Barnegat
Daniel does an Awesome with my Doberman that other dog walkers refuse to walk because they find him scary. He does a great job with understanding psychology of larger breed dogs and has courage. My Corgi I could find a dog walker for her that will do it for free but my Doberman can be a challenge. Animal trainers know that Dobermans are big babies and not everyone is qualified to do this job even if someone thinks it's a simple task.Wish dog walkers would have training in this area or expertise before they sign themselves up for this. After all everyone can walk a poodle but not every dog is a poodle.

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

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.
