About: My promise to you is to treat your pet(s) as you would treat them. I’ve had a sheepadoodle for 5 years, and have the same amount of experience with pet walking/sitting. I have impeccable references available to prove that I am the candidate you would want to care for your pet(s)! I’m a school teacher, available to care for your pet on weekday afternoons/evenings 4pm or later. On weekends, I have no time restrictions. I can adhere to any special modifications/requests you may have, such as working with the owners with crating, walking, and playing. I tailor my services for each client, so it’s not a one-size-fits-all service.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats by my side my entire life, and caring for animals has always been more than a hobby—it’s truly my passion and calling. I have 13 years of pet-sitting experience as well as hands-on experience working at a Humane Society, where I cared for animals of all ages, from young puppies to seniors. I’m comfortable caring for pets with a wide range of needs, including administering medications, supporting pets with chronic medical conditions, caring for seniors, and keeping up with happy, high-energy pups. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I love taking the time to get to know what makes each pet feel safe and happy. Trust and loyalty are at the heart of the care I provide. My goal is not only to make sure your pets are loved and well cared for, but also to give you complete peace of mind knowing they’re in dependable, compassionate hands. I’ll always care for your pets as if they were my own. ❤️🐾 Pet sitting is my full-time focus, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate my time and attention to the pets in my care. Your pets are my priority, and I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and extended visits based on their individual routine and needs. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my number one priority. While my home does have a fully fenced yard, I prefer caring for pets in their own home whenever possible, where they can stay in a familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, boundaries, and needs so they feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away.

About: Nature, animals and science-- always a huge part of my life! I've been teaching middle school science for 27 years. My classroom animals include a hermit crab, fish, a frog and a tank of Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches. At home we have a cat and a fish tank (and over the summer, the school menagerie comes home). I'm a mom to two young men on the autism spectrum; I understand patience and unconditional love. I am teaching my 26th year of middle school science; my classroom is filled with all sort of animals! My availability to care for your baby will be wide open during the summer. Your baby is in good hands with me. Tell me your pet's normal routine (exact feeding times, medication administration, and preferred exercise or walk routes) and it will be followed. As a mom (human and fur babies), I understand the need for security and keeping gates and doors locked securely.

About: I have 4 years of experience caring for dogs and understand how important it is to have someone dependable looking after your pet. Since I work remotely, I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day for walks, check-ins, feeding, playtime, and pet sitting. I’m located in the Rochelle Park/Paramus area and already spend a lot of my day caring for and walking my own dog. I’m comfortable adjusting to each dog’s routine, personality, and energy level. I may also be available for boarding depending on your dog’s comfort level and whether it’s a good fit with my home environment. I work remotely, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pet throughout the day. My schedule mainly revolves around occasional work meetings, and outside of those I can adjust my day for walks, check-ins, feeding, playtime, and other needs. I’m available throughout the week and can work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s normal routine. Every pet is different, so my goal is to follow the routine and instructions you provide as closely as possible. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality, comfort level, habits, and needs while building trust with them over time. Whether I’m walking your dog, checking in, or pet sitting, I’ll make sure they’re comfortable, cared for, and treated like I would want someone to treat my own dog.

About: In the past I have recognized the needs of my pet and responded to them. I always recognize when my pet doesn't want to play anymore and give him/her space. I always show pets affection and never uses physical punishment or force. I am very reliable and trustworthy. I have strong interpersonal and communication skills. I am very patient with pets. I am obsessed with dogs and love to play with them. I don’t mind walking dogs at all. I love to spend time with dogs. I used to own an English bull mastiff she was very big and sadly passed from age. I don’t mind bathing dogs or being with them all day and night because I find them very relaxing and fun to be around.

About: My heart doesn’t know any other way-when it comes to animals, I love them instantly and unconditionally. I have 18+ years of experience caring for animals, starting from a very young age. I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have cared for both Pitbulls and French Bulldogs but to me, breed doesn’t matter. I truly love all animals, big or small. I’m bilingual and speak both English and Spanish, which helps me connect with a wider range of pet parents and provide clear, open communication. I’ve always been the go-to person for anything pet-related. My family calls me the dog whisperer because I have a natural bond with animals, especially dogs. Whether it’s advice, health concerns, or just being a listening ear, I’m the one family and friends trust with their fur babies. My soul dog was a red nose pitbull named Bricks- he taught me what real love is. Since then, I’ve raised three amazing French Bulldogs: Juicy, Kuma, and Tron. I also had the incredible experience of raising two litters from birth- Juicy had 5 puppies and Kuma had 6. I provided round-the-clock care until they were ready for their forever homes. I still keep in touch with the families- they became part of mine. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I regularly pet-sit for friends, family, and neighbors-dogs and cats alike. One of my most consistent companions is Max, my neighbor’s dog, whom I’ve been caring for for over a year. I give him daily medication and make sure he always feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I’ve also cared for a bearded dragon, who was part of our family for 11 wonderful years. I’m familiar with reptile needs, feeding, handling, and tank care. I also have experience caring for a cockatiel, including feeding, changing water, and maintaining a calm, happy environment for birds. I’m experienced with: Giving medication Drop-in visits Long walks and playtime Baths and basic grooming Feeding routines and crate care Newborn puppy care and socialization Basic reptile and bird care I truly treat every pet like they’re my own because in my heart, they are. The amount of kisses, cuddles, love, and attention your pet will receive is immense. I go above and beyond to make sure every animal feels safe, comforted, and cared for like family. I’m also very communicative and will keep you updated with photos, videos, and messages so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. You can trust me to provide more than just care. I offer love, safety, and genuine companionship. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life! I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent attention, walks, feedings, and lots of love throughout the day. Whether it’s early morning potty breaks, midday walks, or evening snuggles, I can easily adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s needs. Being home full-time means your pet will never feel alone and will always have someone nearby to care for and comfort them. Whether your pet is staying in my home or I’m visiting yours, their safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. At my home, pets have plenty of room to play and relax-I have a large fenced-in yard that's perfect for safe outdoor time and supervised play. If your pet is crate-trained or needs a crate for naps or bedtime, I can easily accommodate that too. I follow each pet’s routine closely-feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special care instructions-to make sure they feel at home. If I’m in your home, I respect your space and ensure everything is done exactly how you’d like. I’m also very communicative and will send regular updates, photos, and videos so you always know your pet is safe and well cared for. I treat every pet like family and work hard to create a calm, loving, and secure environment, whether they’re with me or in their own home.

She is caring and kind, and really wants to connect with the pet and the pet parent. My dog always comes back from walks with her tired and ready for a long nap. He's so excited to see her every single time! I trust Giselle completely - she's even taken my dog out and had access to my house when I wasn't home. Highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years through family and friends, and I’m always the person they trust to watch their pets. I genuinely love animals, and dogs tend to feel comfortable with me very quickly. I have experience with small and medium-sized dogs, and I’m comfortable adapting to different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I’m especially patient with more anxious or sensitive dogs. I have an anxious dog of my own, which has taught me how to read body language, build trust, and create a calm, safe environment. I’m very attentive and detail-oriented, so I always follow care instructions closely, whether it’s feeding schedules, medications, or specific routines. I can also help reinforce basic training like leash manners and structure during walks. My goal is to make every dog feel cared for, understood, and happy while giving owners complete peace of mind. I treat every dog like my own and always keep communication open and consistent. I’m available Thursday through Sunday, with the most flexibility on weekends. On Thursdays and Fridays, I work part-time and am home by early afternoon, so I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and evening care. I prioritize safety, trust, and clear communication above everything. I follow each pet’s routine closely and take the time to understand their individual needs, behaviors, and comfort levels. I have a fenced yard for safe outdoor time, as well as a very friendly Shihpoo who is used to being around other dogs. I always supervise interactions and make sure every dog feels comfortable and secure. I also have a pet camera at home for added monitoring, and a baby gate if a dog feels more comfortable in a smaller, more confined space. I’m especially mindful with more anxious dogs, as I have one of my own, so I understand the importance of patience and creating a calm, safe environment.

Morgan was an absolute gem. I wish I could give her more than 5 stars. I booked her for dog walks last minute while I was already out of town and my sister with little kids was watching my dog but struggling to do walks. Not only was Morgan prompt with responding, she was responsible and thoughtful. A great communicator. My dog Bolognese loved her. She even spent time one night helping my sister in finding her dog who had gotten out. I cannot speak highly enough of her, she’s the best.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Fair Lawn

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Fair Lawn is $28 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $43 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 27,702 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Fair Lawn. 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 Fair Lawn. 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 , 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 Fair Lawn 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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fair Lawn. On Rover:

  • 83% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
