About: Hi! I'm Brooklyn! I've been watching dogs for over 10 years and honestly just love having them around. I work from home, so your pup won't be left alone all day and will get plenty of attention. I love being outside, so if your dog enjoys walks, I love exploring farmers markets, parkets and anywhere outside in the sunshine. If they're more into naps and hanging out, you are in luck because I work fully remote so can hangout with them during the week inside. I've cared for puppies as young as 4 months and senior dogs up to 15 years old, and I've worked with all kinds of personalities and energy levels. My goal is always to make them feel as comfortable as possible while you're away and treat them like they're my own. Always happy to connect to answer any questions you may have! I work fully remote, so your pup will never be left alone and will get lots of attention throughout the day. I also have a fully fenced-in backyard - perfect for playtime, potty breaks, or just lounging in the sun. Plus, I’m in a super walkable area with quiet streets for daily walks and outdoor time. Whether your dog loves exploring or just wants to relax in a cozy space, they’ll feel right at home here! I am an extremely clean and organized person. I ensure the dog is in a clean environment, has plenty of toys, and gets lot of outdoor exercise and walks. I also ensure that the home is kept clean and tidy throughout the day. I am extremely active in updating owners everyday, as well.

“Kevin was prompt to responding to my request for a dog walker. On the same day we set up a date for meet and greet. I received a text message from Kevin that he was on his way. My dog Rory is a 100 pound English Labrador and met Kevin at the door. Right away they both clicked. Kevin told me he had 2 dogs and he was very attentive to my boy. We agreed on the dates and time and I completed the process online. On the first day Kevin texted he was on his way. Rory was excited to go for his walk and was happy as evidence by running to me and wagging his tail when he came back. Every morning Kevin came, Rory met him at the door. I was very pleased with how friendly Kevin was and the attention he gave to Rory. I received 4 adorable pictures of Rory from Kevin while they were on their walks. I definitely recommend Kevin for your dog care needs. Thank you very much.”

About: *(I am currently not accepting any bookings)* I have lived with dogs my whole life. I have a dog named Romeo who is 4 years old. I have learned that dogs deserve patience and quality time, of course love. I have watched others dogs, family and friends, and they have always been happy with the outcome. I have experience in cleaning, playing, feeding the right amount of food, and caring. I am an assistant manager at Exit 4 Escape Rooms in Glassboro. I consistently work 2 days a week within the days Wednesday through Sunday. Those hours range from 5:30 pm to Close (the latest being 10:30.) I also am a party princess/performer so I may have a gig on the weekends and I may be out for a couple hours. When I have a confirmed gig(s) If I am not available at all that day due to multiple, I will update my schedule immediately. I try to keep up with it on here. My household has 3 Dogs, including a fenced in yard. When I let them go out to use the bathroom, I will stand outside to make sure they get inside safely. Around their dinner time, one of our dogs has a separate food bag because he has food sensitivities so I make sure to separate their food and give them a specific amount of food that is good for them. I will play with them all the time, give them love and treats, and make sure they are content. (I will be the only caretaker, no one else in my household will be accompanying me!)

About: I love dogs. I have been dog sitting for numerous years; started with family and expanded to friends. Watching animals has been an experience that I love to do. I do work full time as a teacher, but I make sure to give the dogs the love and care they need. I love to go on long walks with the dogs and play. I always try to make sure the dog know just how loved they are and I always take pictures to send to the owners so you will know how your dog is doing when with me. I started out watching my sister's two dogs and my aunt's one dog at their house or my townhouse. I have also taken care of two dogs and five cats in one house. I love being around dogs since they make everything so much better, especially after bad days. I have had experience both house sitting and having a dog in my home. I work full time as a teacher. I make sure they are fed, go outside, and cared for before work and right after work. The pets actually come first as their needs should be met. On weekends, during breaks, and summer I am there for the pets a lot more since I’m off. In their home, I make sure to follow their routines. I follow all directions and rules the owners give me. I like keeping the pets where they are most comfortable.

About: I adore and cherish dogs of all breeds, shapes, and sizes. I am a HUGE animal lover and love all aspects of caring for animals. I am the type of person that if I see someone walking their dog across the street, I will go over to pet the dog. I've grew up caring for and loving at least one dog at a time since I was a teenager. I feel a great sense of fulfillment and purpose in knowing that I play a part in neutering the happiness and overall well being of dogs. I started off pet sitting for several family and friend's dogs over the years and found the experience very rewarding and exciting. I then moved beyond the scope of people I already knew to families within my community who requested help caring for their fur babies. I presently have many happy pet sitting and dog walking clients who can attest to my ability to provide the best care possible for their dog(s) (I do provide references) and I’m here looking to expand my customer base even more! I’m educated in obedience skills and utilize the skills I know whenever possible. I earned my master's degree in from Wilmington University in School Counseling in 2017. I am not currently using the degree. Another passion of mine is children. My caring and nurturing personality makes caring for animals rewarding and gives me a great sense of purpose.❤️ My schedule is flexible and I don't mind changing around my schedule when possible to care for furry friends. The more notice I get the better! My home is very safe for pets. I have gates in my family room that close off the room from the rest of my house should a dog need to be contained in one room; however, I can't help but resist letting dogs roam around and sleep in my bed. My yard is fenced in. I don't mind walking dogs around my neighborhood either. Client's always feel at ease when they see my house and the dogs always love their stay!

About: I am very good with dogs, because I pay attention to their body language. Dogs communicate through their eyes, body and barks. Similar to a person using sign language. Most communication is non-verbal and I definitely pay attention and make sure I treat every furry friend with respect and love. Dogs have feelings and like to socialize in healthy environments and that is what they will get with me as your dog sitter and / or dog walker. I will take your dog walking, I will check-in on your dog and play ball or tug of war with them, if that is what they like to do, I will provide water refills and food refills, even mix food upon request and follow instructions specific to your dog's need. I like to take dogs to the park, go jogging with dogs, belly rubs, hugs and playful affection. I like making dogs feel important, so they know they matter. This way, they feel happy and fulfilled while you are working or away on vacation, or away for that day or moment running errands. I am currently an entrepreneur. Trying to start my own pet business. Served, previously in the United States Air Force. Used to have an emotional support dog for 14 years who is no longer with us due to old age and health problems. That was my peace and joy who helped me through difficult times in my life. I actually feel happy spending time with dogs. Running with dogs, playing ball with dogs, training dogs, walking dogs, dog sitting and playing, cuddles and hugs! I make dogs feel important because they are our fur babies who deserve the best life can give them! I will give your dog fresh water, food, medication; if necessary, pay attention to their body language to figure out what they need from me to feel more comfortable and supported. If you have instructions or a routine I will follow those set of guidelines. I will keep all owners well informed with updated photos and possible videos on how their fur babies are doing! If they need a bathing that is extra, but I will clean your dog thoroughly after playtime. If, you want me to take your dog to the park, I love doing walks and runs in the park with your fur baby! Get all the extra energy out, so when you come home they are well satisfied and content. I have a house and a yard. Yard is not fully fenced in yet, but currently working towards fixing it or getting a new fence. My house is dog proof to keep all fur babies safe and happy, but there are always other options available to keep your dog as comfortable as possible. Depending on the service you hire me for pertaining to your pet.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Elmer

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Elmer is $22 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $28 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 7,163 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Elmer. 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 Elmer. 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 Elmer 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 Elmer. On Rover:

  • 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
