“Libby took such good care of our girl! Our pup can be a bit lazy and Libby did a great job getting her motivated for her walk and followed our instructions perfect. Thank you Libby!! Will be rebooking”
“Charlotte was great. She was on time every day we had scheduled and walked our dog Bailey a good distance. I had forgot to tell her to feed Bailey one night and Charlotte asked if she needed to be fed. That shows me that she truly cares for the animals. We will schedule her services again for sure. Thanks Charlotte!”
About: I first discovered my passion for animal care in fifth grade when I brought home and later adopted my class pet, Spot, an anole lizard who remained with our family for two years. Since then, I have continued developing hands-on experience caring for animals, including working with reactive dogs. During the pandemic, my family adopted our dog Henry, and through that experience I gained valuable insight into supporting dogs with anxiety and learning effective, patient approaches to behavioral management. I currently have full availability for the summer and am flexible in accommodating a wide range of pet care needs, including daytime, evening, and weekend care. I prioritize clear and consistent communication with pet owners to ensure I fully understand each pet’s individual needs and routine. My goal is to provide attentive, reliable care and make sure every pet is safe, comfortable, and receiving the highest quality care possible.
“David is awesome with Phantom, who loves to go for walks with him. He is reliable and has been able to handle last minute requests. We truly appreciate the fact that he’s here to help us care for our dog!”
“Katie is very aware of Jerry’s safety and needs - I really appreciated her seeking out shade during today’s hot walk and making sure he cooled down and drank water before she left! Thanks as always Katie!”
“Sharon was amazing! She came over before we needed help with Fitz to meet him, and he loved her at first sight. She was communicative, quick to respond, and timely. I highly recommend!”
About: Shelter volunteer and pet parent experienced with medication administration and managing anxious, reactive dogs. I am dedicated to keeping your pup safe, happy, and comfortable. My weekends revolve entirely around my dogs' walking, medication, and training routines. I am fully free Friday through Sunday to give your pup that same dedicated care. My dogs are my babies and completely spoiled. From protective walking boots to strict safety routines, I promise to treat your pup with that same pampered care.
About: My regular job is working at a pet boarding facility (boarding at New England Veterinary Clinic!) as a pet care attendant, where I do all the same work as any pet sitter, just at my place of work. I feed dinner, give meds, take out and play with, both cats and dogs. I work part time and I am a student, but as classes end for the semester, I am open except for my 4/week 4 hr shifts at work. I have to be back at my house at night to take care of my own cat, but am available first thing in the morning and last thing at night as well as throughout the day. I care deeply about all pets and whatever quirks make them themselves. I know there may be a random thing that makes no sense, but brings them comfort, or even just you. I also care about people, and I know how important it is to feel that your pet is well cared for, and relive the anxiety of going on a trip. Not to mention, as I already take care of pets for work, I am very familiar with bonding with both pets and pet owners.
About: I am attentive, patient, kind, and empathetic toward all animals. I’ve spent my whole life around pets, grew up with four huskies, and have always wanted more pets in my life. I currently have two cats, a senior named Gatsby and a kitten named Pippin. I look forward to meeting and caring for your pets! I work from home full time and set my own schedule, so I can be flexible with timing of walks and drop in home visits. I have a car and easy access to all forms of transportation. I can visit your home and stick to your and your pets’ routines, or pop by in the middle of the day for walks and trips to the dog park.
About: Trusted by many local families, I provide reliable pet sitting, dog walking, and cat care. Most of my clients come through word-of-mouth recommendations (references available upon request) , and I take pride in building lasting relationships with both pets and their owners. With having 12 pets of my own, I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, as well as feeding and checking in on cats while families are away. You can count on me to provide dependable care, regular updates, and lots of love and attention for your pets. I work some nights a restaurant and currently on a gap year! I will be traveling a little bit but will be available a lot. I have 3 dogs, 4 cats, 2 ferrets, a bunny, a bearded dragon, and some fish. I live in the basement am able to cut off my animals access down there if I were to watch your pet from my home which I’ve done before.
About: I have 20 years of experience with looking after pets of all ages to the best of my ability. I treat your pet as if they’re my own and ensure they’re able to be as happy as could be, while their parents are away. I ensure to send updates, pictures, and videos for your peace of mind. I have experience with administering medication to pets, both pills and liquid. Written instructions are appreciated, but not required. I’m a mom to a toddler and am upfront with owners about when he may be with me during a booking. I take pet care seriously and always make sure your pet’s routine, comfort, and safety come first. I’m focusing on my Rover clientele so I am available full-time. Please contact me for a meet and greet and see where everything goes from there! I am not able to offer boarding at home, but am able to take care of your babies in the comfort of your home where they’re most comfortable. If you prefer to provide instructions for your pets, I will follow them. You will receive a lot of pictures and videos of your fur babies as well.
About: I've had dogs on and off since I was a kid. From Great Danes to Jack Russel Terriers. I used to be the manager of a horse barn, so I'm used to all kinds of things. I have taken care of all kinds of friends pets, and done some house sitting. I generally get along with most dogs. Likewise, I do understand that sometimes it might take a while for an animal to warm up. All animals have personalities. I work full time, but can do evenings, and weekends. Or if an extended period of time is needed I can stay in the home and make sure your pet isn't left without a companion. If you need a pet sat in the house, I can definitely do more walks and more play time. I don't currently have something set up for in my home. But in a client's home it would depend on their wants and needs. This may vary, and I am adaptable.
About: I have so much love for animals, I will treat your pet as if it was my own and spoil them with all the love! I have experience administering oral medication and following special diets. I’m currently a part time yoga teacher and nanny and have plenty of time to return home in between to make sure your pet is loved, safe and taken care of. I will treat your home with the utmost respect and care for your pet with dedication and love! I live in a quiet neighborhood great for walks and have a back yard and porch as well.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Clifton
Johnny was fantastic. It was the first time I'd used a sitter and I was really nervous to leave my pup in someone else's hands. Johnny did great with him, kept me informed about how he was doing, regularly sent pictures and was extremely responsive. Mando loved him and they got along great. I highly recommend him, and will defintely ask him to take care of my pup next time I travel.
This was our first time having our dog walked by someone. Isabella was gentle, kind, and made us feel very comfortable. Our girl Ylva felt comfortable right away and was SO happy when she came back from her walk. We are so grateful for a positive first experience and will definitely book with Isabella again.

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 Clifton. 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 Clifton.

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 Clifton. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
