About: Ive always loved dogs since I was younger and have taken care of my own dog for 6 years now. Before I had a dog I would gravitate toward my friends dogs and want to walk them or play with them. I have more experience than my profile shows since I sometimes take jobs off the app. I’ve had a couple repeats and been dog walking about 3 years now. Pretty free this summer I have a part time job and school but it shouldn’t be an issue when you send a request we can discuss my schedule for taking care of your dog further if anything changes I constantly make sure I know where my dog is within my home which is usually near me and she has a big fenced backyard. In the backyard she loves to run around so I have to keep an eye out for any trouble.
“Hiral has walked our dog Hank a few times now and Hank always has a great time with her. She sends pictures and updates throughout her visit, even feeds him if needed. She is our go to!”

I currently have two cats at home, and previously owned a pitbull who recently passed away. Im looking to get some good walks and play in with some dogs!
“I highly recommend this dog walker! Shama is reliable, caring, and truly passionate about animals. My dog is always excited to see her and comes home happy, well-exercised, and well cared for. Communication is excellent—shama provide updates and are always punctual and dependable. It’s clear she treat every dog as if it were their own. Having someone I can trust with my pet gives me great peace of mind. I couldn’t be happier with shama’s service and would gladly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all kinds. I’ve raised and fully trained two dogs of my own, so I’m comfortable with everything from basic training and daily routines to giving pets the attention and care they need. I’m responsible, patient, and genuinely love spending time with animals! I’m a college student with a fairly flexible schedule. I have classes mainly on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday, with open availability throughout the mornings and most of my evenings. My Tuesdays and Fridays are completely open, so I have plenty of flexibility for pet sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits. You can keep it simple and focus on being responsible in the client’s home, since you don’t need to claim anything you don’t offer. Here’s a natural version that meets the 25-word minimum: I prioritize keeping pets safe, comfortable, and supervised while following their normal routines. I’m respectful of each client’s home and make sure pets receive plenty of care and attention.
About: I have loved and cared for animals for most of my life. Growing up, I raised and cared for dogs and many other household pets, which taught me responsibility, patience, and attentiveness from a young age. One of my earliest experiences was helping care for a mother dog and her newborn puppies. Since moving to the United States 15 years ago, I have regularly helped friends and neighbors care for their pets while they were away. In my professional life, I have been an elementary school teacher for the past ten years. My experience working with children has strengthened my ability to be patient, observant, dependable, and responsive to individual needs. I treat every pet with the same level of care and attention that I would give to a member of my own family. I am a full-time elementary school teacher during the school year. During the summer, I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day to provide care, supervision, companionship, and exercise for dogs. Because I am home for most of the day during summer break, I can accommodate regular walks, feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I am committed to maintaining your pet’s routine and ensuring they feel comfortable and cared for while you are away. I live in an end-unit townhouse in a safe, pet-friendly neighborhood with nearby walking paths, parks, and green spaces. My home provides a calm and comfortable environment where pets can relax and feel secure. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and daily routines. I supervise pets closely, keep them on leash during walks unless otherwise directed in a secure area, and make safety my top priority at all times. I understand that every dog has unique needs, and I strive to provide individualized care that helps them feel at home.
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages and needs, including puppies, senior dogs, and multiple dogs at once.

I’m committed to providing reliable, loving care while making sure each dog gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. Whether it’s keeping up with an energetic puppy or providing gentle care for a senior dog, I treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine because I currently have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability. I do volunteer work three times a week, but it’s only about 15 minutes from home, so I’m still able to accommodate pet care before or after volunteering. My flexible schedule allows me to be available for walks and drop-ins throughout the week at all hours For now, I provide walks and drop-in visits in my clients’ homes. I make sure each pet is comfortable, cared for, and follows their usual routine as closely as possible. During drop-ins, I can provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention based on each pet’s individual needs. For walks, I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and properly exercised.

Kelley was amazing, I would absolutely recommend her for anyone out there searching for someone to look after their pup. I was able to meet her and introduce her to my dog Shadow who could be a bit difficult to handle while on a leash at times, but she was extremely patient and did a great job with him. 10/10 service
I can’t say enough good things about Shannon- such an amazing person who went above and beyond to care for our silly boy Leo during a last minute need. I’m a veterinarian and I have a lot of specific needs, but she stepped in and cared for our boy just as her own—even better than I could have asked for. You would be lucky to have her looking after your pet! Thank you for everything, Shannon!!

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 Edison. 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 Edison after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

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.

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.
