About: Hi, I’m Abby! 🐾 I’ve cared for animals through 4-H and pet sitting alongside my mom, and I’m now starting my own pet care business. I love all animals—furry, scaly, and feathery! From cats and dogs to birds, reptiles, and small animals, I provide dependable, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’ll treat your animals like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away! Pet care has always been a huge part of my life! 🐾 After working full-time at a dog kennel, I decided to follow my passion and start my own pet care business. Now, I’m able to make caring for animals a part of my everyday life! My days and weeks are filled with caring for pets, giving them love and attention, keeping up with their routines, and making sure they feel happy and comfortable while their families are away. I love that my work allows me to meet new animals and build special bonds with each one. 💕 I treat every client’s home with the same care and respect I would my own! 🏡💕 I’m happy to bring in mail, keep things tidy, follow any house routines, and make sure everything is safe and secure. I don’t mind sleeping over and staying with your pets, especially if they’re more comfortable having someone around. My goal is to leave your home just as I found it while making sure your pets feel loved, comfortable, and cared for! 🐾
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs my whole life. My babies are lifers. Your animal is my number one priority. I prefer animals over humans any day I quit my job to walk dogs full time. I’m always available if you need me. Your babies are my babies. I’d prefer dogs over humans I have a fenced in yard and no one can escape. I abide by what the client asks for in their and my own home. I walk, play with your dog if toys are presented
“We are SO glad that we found Hallie! She did a great job with our dog who can be shy. Hallie made time for a meet-and-greet and was even flexible enough to make a day of scheduling adjustment. We loved seeing the photos that Hallie sent! We are confident that our fur baby is in good hands and we will definitely be using Hallie again!”
About: I have been a pet appreciation magnet as long as I can remember. Even when I am not aiming for the attention, the pets gravitate my way, and i have scritches and belly rubs for them all. I have a rescue of my own for 6+ years now, bichon/poodle mix. Though he had a traumatic start before me, he has adjusted well and is a cuddle bug, and getting better with his socialization with new doggos. I have been a dog sitter for friends over the last 8+ years, when they go on trips. I have experience in minor training, like sit/stay/leash leading, for a few breeds up to 50-70 lbs (no certificates, just repitition and patience). Positive recognition of good behavior and moderate activity (to remedy the bad behavior) when you need me are what I hope to share with your furry family members. I am currently working part-time, so i can set up a schedule of regular pet attention care during part day time hours. Currently I have weekends free if weekend care is requested, though this may change if requests are light. I am working on my house to be able to provide overnight care in the future, making it care friendly for additional furry friends. I have a fenced in, good size yard, and a medium size fur baby of my own to greet stay over friends, though my house needs a little more time for prep before we are ready. I am happy to do drop-ins and day or eve walks at your home, and follow any/all your rules. I respect your needs and want to make sure your fur baby is safe and happy in my care. I keep trainer treats in my car, if we need to practice a few basic commands, as well as water and other care essentials. I have a back seat hammock/cover for the pet's safety when traveling (as needed). I also have a med to large dog kennel I can put in the way back of my SUV if that is preferred for safety and security.
“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!”
About: Hi! My name is Myranda, and I’m 21 years old! I’m currently in college finishing up my prerequisites and hoping to get into a nursing program next year. I’ve also been working in Ocean City, NJ, for about five years now! I’ve always been an animal lover, and I’d love to spend some of my free time helping families care for their furry friends! I know pets are such an important part of the family, and I understand how much it means to have someone you can trust looking after them. I’m a very caring, patient, and responsible person. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, keeping them company, or just making sure they’re happy and comfortable while you’re away, I’d love to help! I have my own car and reliable transportation, and I’m hoping to find opportunities that work around my school and work schedule. I’d love to get to know you and your pets! :) I’m currently working and going to college, but I have some flexibility in my schedule! I’d love to spend some of my free time caring for your pets. I’m open to weekends, evenings, and occasional visits throughout the week depending on my school and work schedule. I also have my own car, so transportation isn’t an issue! I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone else! I’ll always make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of love and attention while you’re away. I’m happy to follow their normal routine, whether that’s feeding times, walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. I’ll also make sure to send pictures and updates so you know how they’re doing!
About: Hi! My name is Danielle. I am 35 years old and I am a very outgoing and active girl. I work full time at a cardiologist office but have a lot of free time after work and on the weekends. I am an animal lover and have had dogs my whole life. As well as caring for my own dogs, I have lots of experience watching family and friends dogs while they are away. I have experience watching dogs small to large. My first time sitting I watched 4 big dogs so don’t worry if you have more then one! ;) I am trustworthy, reliable, and flexible. You can go away knowing your pets and your home are in good hands! I will love your dogs as if they were my own and will give endless tummy rubs. I know it’s important for your pet to feel loved and cared for while you are on a vacation, or just an overnight trip so that’s why I started doing rover. I love sending pictures/videos and sending you updates just so you know they are having a great time and are comfortable while you are away. I can start as soon as possible and have no problem traveling. I hope to hear from you soon! Yours Truly, Danielle
“Great job. And took pics to show how Dempsey was doing which is very reassuring. The only reason I rate a 4 is because the last walk I requested at 4pm and she was 40min late. Not a huge deal but I had to check in to make sure she was going”
About: Hi, I’m Maria! I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years, and my passion for pet care grew from my experience working in a veterinary office. I provide full-time doggy daycare and boarding in a loving, family-oriented home. My three children and I enjoy welcoming furry guests and making them feel comfortable during their stay. Our home features a fully fenced backyard with a 6-foot fence, perfect for supervised outdoor time, play, and regular potty breaks. I understand every dog is different and do my best to accommodate their individual needs and routines. For everyone’s safety, dogs must be comfortable around young children and other dogs, as I may care for multiple pups at once. I’m unable to accommodate dogs with aggressive behaviors, and I always supervise interactions to ensure safe, appropriate play. I provide regular photo updates and communicate any concerns promptly. You’re also welcome to bring familiar items to help your pup feel at home. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. I look forward to meeting your furry family member! 🐾💜 As a stay-at-home mom and full-time pet sitter, caring for dogs fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m home throughout most of the day, providing regular potty breaks, supervised outdoor time, play, and plenty of rest. On the occasions I need to step out, I make sure every dog is safely settled and use pet cameras for additional monitoring. My goal is to provide a comfortable, consistent, and loving environment for every pup in my care. 🐾💙 Your dog’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I provide a clean, loving home with a fully fenced backyard, supervised outdoor time, and plenty of space for play and relaxation. I ask that pet parents be honest about their dog’s temperament, separation anxiety, and any behavioral concerns. Dogs must be comfortable around children and other dogs, as I may care for multiple pups at once. I’m unable to accommodate dogs with aggressive behaviors. I supervise interactions, separate dogs during meals, and provide fresh water throughout the day. For dogs who prefer a quieter environment, I can provide a separate space to relax away from more energetic pups. My goal is to create a safe, structured, and comfortable environment where every dog feels secure and cared for. 🐾💚

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,093 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Downe. 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 Downe. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Downe after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 Downe. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
