Sam was great and reliable. She was punctual and friendly. I got regular updates for each walk with pictures which gave us a peace of mind while we were away.

We used Eléni for daily waking while we were away. She was so sweet and loving to Jake and helped my mother in law with some medication he needed on his paw. She was punctual and walked him for the full agreed upon time plus more for belly rubs! I highly recommend Eléni and will definitely be using her again when the need arises!

About: I have been responsible for the care of cats and dogs inside and outside of my home since the age of two. I trained my family dog from eight weeks old, and have experience managing aggressive behavior. I am familiar with cats, having cared for them from kitten age to the end of their lives. When granted the responsibility to look after others pets, I show up with the utmost respect and care that I would want for my very own. I am a full time college student home for summer.

I am highly capable of whatever your needs may be; feeding, bathing, walking, keeping up with your training schedule. I have reliable transportation and am available to visit your pet(s) multiple times in a day in order to meet their physiological needs as well as engage with them in activity and play.

About: I’ve taken care of my neighbors’ pets for a few years and have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to treat each pet like family. I’m responsible, patient, and truly love animals—which helps me build trust with both pets and their owners. Since it’s summer, I’m available most days and very flexible with my schedule. I can do morning, afternoon, or evening pet care, and I’m happy to adjust to what works best for you and your pets. I always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable, whether I’m in their home or mine. I follow any routines or instructions closely, give them plenty of attention, and keep a calm, clean environment. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always put their safety first. Things such as on leash walks, play time in the backyard, and cuddles!

About: I’ve spent the last 6 years caring for dogs and cats for families in my neighborhood, including puppies, high‑energy dogs, and seniors who need a gentler pace. I regularly do dog walking, drop‑in visits, and house sitting, and I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, medications, walks, and playtime. I treat every animal like my own, send lots of photo updates, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and relaxed while their people are away. I’m a college student, so my availability is best during school breaks and holidays. When I’m home in New Jersey, I’m generally free on both weekdays and weekends, and I’m happy to work around your travel plans. I keep my calendar up to date and respond quickly so we can find times that fit your schedule. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to the routines you already have in place—feeding schedule, walk times, and house rules. I always double‑check doors, gates, and leashes, and I watch for any changes in behavior or appetite that might signal a problem. I’m respectful of your home, keep things tidy, and send clear updates and photos so you always know how your pets are doing.

Elaine has been amazing with our dog, Jax! He’s usually pretty shy, but he warmed up to her so quickly. It’s clear she really understands dogs and takes her time to make them feel comfortable. She’s reliable, kind, and clearly loves what she does. We’re so glad we found her!

About: Hi, my name is Isabel. I am an animal lover providing pet sitting, dog walking, and pet visits to your furry or feathery friends! I am very experienced with animals. I have had every pet you could possibly imagine, from dogs to parrots. My passion has grown stronger and stronger throughout my life, creating bonds with my clients and own pets. It has grown so strong as to create a future for me. I plan to pursue my dream career and fulfill my passion for animals by studying to become a veterinarian.

About: Hi, I'm Xiomara and currently live in the Chatham, NJ area. I'm a huge lover of pets and have had many growing up and continuing over the years into adulthood. I currently have one cat at home, who is almost 14 years old and at times help take care of my family's Shih Tzu. Our previous family dog had diabetes, so I have experience administering medication should that be necessary. I love dogs and cats, whether they are young or old equally, and you can trust your pet will get the best treatment from me. I work from home with a pretty flexible schedule, so I'll have time to play with your fur babies and am available any day you may need. My home is smoke free, one level and has just enough space for your pet to run around safely. My cat will also be around to keep them company.

About: I've had dogs all my life, the most recently i had a awesome miniature poodle who I was fortunate to love and care for 17 years, so I am familiar with the needs of senior dogs. My schedule is fairly open every day after about 9 or ten am. I'd like a regular opportunity, but one offs will be good as well I am available for pet sitting at the clients home, but due to younger kids I can accommodate pets at my home. Walking and feeding and playing is ideal

About: Ever since I was born, there has been a dog in my life. I’ve lived with a dog in my home for over 25 years and have experience caring for them at all life stages- from the puppy to senior years. I live with my wife, son, and our 4 year old golden retriever, Beau. Beau is a true golden retriever, super easy-going and loves all dogs he meets. We have a comfortable, dog friendly home where the dogs are welcome to relax on the couches, beds, wherever they are comfy. We also have a large fenced in yard in a quiet, family friendly neighborhood that suits our twice daily walks. We treat our dog like a member of the family and love to bring him with us wherever we can- breweries, farmers market, vacations, you name it. We will treat your dog as one of our own as well. Last year, I kickstarted a weekend morning dog walk at a local park with friends, that my dog looks forward to weekly. My family and I have also regularly dogsat for friends of ours as favors. My wife and I both work a hybrid schedule and are home Fridays-Mondays to support boarding your dog over long weekends. We always prioritize our dog’s needs and the needs of any dog we are watching by being home often, providing lots of attention, play, and long morning and evening walks. We have a large, securely fenced in yard and have our 4 year old golden retriever, who is extremely friendly, laid-back, and great with other dogs. We have not crated him since the puppy years, but can crate your dog if requested. Our home (and furniture) is dog friendly.

About: My family once had a Sheltie when I was a kid. Since then, I have taken care of many of my friend’s dogs and cats while they are out of town. I am very willing to walk, feed, bathe, play, and watch TV with your pets! Please let me know if there’s special needs for your pets and I will try my best to accommodate. I’m working from home everyday which means I can walk your dog anytime during the day and provide potty breaks in between 3 hours. I also live in a very active lifestyle. I live in a spacious one bedroom apartment with sunny windows. Inside my building, there’s a big lawn dog park with two unleash areas. There are also two public dog parks outside my building. The new-built Metropolitan Park is also just downstairs, two steps away. It is a very good and convenient place to walk your dog too.

I am so incredibly grateful for Hailey. She started walking Gus just last week, and it’s already clear how special she is. Gus absolutely adores her - which says everything. She’s kind, patient, reliable, and genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. She’s also been wonderfully flexible and accommodating, which has meant the world to me. I can’t recommend her highly enough - truly the best dog walker I could have asked for.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Berkeley Heights

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Berkeley Heights on Rover is $38.85 per walk (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 26,940 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Berkeley Heights. 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 Berkeley Heights. 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 Berkeley Heights.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 Berkeley Heights. On Rover:

  • 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
