About: have lifelong experience caring for dogs, starting with growing up alongside a yellow Labrador, where I learned daily responsibilities like feeding, walking, bathing, and exercise routines. In addition, I’ve taken care of my girlfriend’s dog many times, including walks, feeding, and overnight care. This has helped me become comfortable with different personalities and behaviors, as well as following specific owner instructions closely. While I may not have professional kennel experience, I bring real, hands-on, consistent care experience that comes from years of personal responsibility with dogs. I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give your dog consistent attention throughout the day. Because I live right on the intercoastal, I’m able to take frequent walks in a safe, scenic environment and easily incorporate regular outdoor time into my routine. Your dog won’t be left alone, and I’m able to adjust my day around their needs—whether that means extra walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or just companionship. I focus on making sure each dog feels comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for while you’re away. I also provide updates so you can stay informed and at ease knowing your pet is in good hands I live in a large one bedroom apartment so your pet has plenty of room to roam and a very comfy couch to lay out on
“Very attentive and received a lot of updates as the walks happened . She asked a lot of questions to make sure my pup was well taken care of. Thank you Antoinette !”
About: I have around 20 years of experience taking care of dogs and cats of all ages, including dogs with conditions such as dementia, incontinence, and semi-blindness. I have raised kittens and care for adult/senior cats. I understand that our fur babies are our family! My schedule is very flexible since I work part time in the hospitality industry. Weekdays and weekend availability, including daytime and nighttime. Regular or intermittent. I will go to client homes as my adult cats don't do well with new friends in our home. As I am part of a law enforcement family, rest assured there isn't a concern for your safety/trust, and I take my own safety/security very seriously.
“Stefan was great with my Dog Finn. He is generally very shy, but warmed up immediately. And now when he arrives to take him for a walk, his tail wiggles all over and he is basically in his lap. It makes me feel so comfortable that he is with my Dog every day!”
About: I volunteered at an animal shelter for 2 years and have always loved being around dogs! I fostered a dog for 5 months and have wanted to get involved with animals again. I’m currently a student getting my masters with a varying schedule during the week. My nights and weekends are always available for your dog needs. I will keep them on a leash when leaving the house and be aware that I may need to shorten the leash or take an alternate path if there are other dogs in the area. I will always clean up after the pet both inside the house and outside the house.

I provide fresh food and water, regular walks, playtime, exercise, and plenty of love and attention. I keep their living area clean, make sure they are safe at all times, and can give medications if needed. I also send regular updates with photos so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for.
About: *I ONLY TAKE ONE CLIENT AT A TIME* *DOGS MUST BE CRATE TRAINED* I've cared for dogs for most of my life, including my own dogs as well as my client's dogs. As a housekeeper for many years, I was the natural choice when my clients needed a pet sitter. Their pets became like my very own. Now that we no longer have a dog in our home and so I enjoy caring for my client's "borrowed" dogs while they are out of town. Hablo español. My husband and I work part-time. Our schedules allow at least one of us to be home all day so your pet will be closely monitored for their safety. I have a fenced-in yard and no other pets in my home. I require a meet & greet before the booking to meet your dog and for you to meet me to make sure we are a good fit. For our safety as well as your dog's safety, I require proof of current Rabies vaccination. At this time, we do not accept more than one client at a time. This is for your pet's comfort and safety. We require a meet & greet with you and your pet before confirming any boarding visit.

I work part time so I’m free a majority of the time. Rover will be a fun addition to my schedule. My work allows me to adjust my schedule with any future bookings I may have. Si hablo español también 😌 The community I live in is fenced off from the main road. There is a dog friendly play area in my community as well which is where I plan to do any off leash activities, I like to make sure the play area is empty (usually is). I also have 2 small children in my home but they’ve been around dogs their whole lives so they know how to act with animals and how to treat them with respect
“Diesel loved you and looked forward to your time with you. I could appreciate that you were not afraid of him and took on the task. You did and awesome job with my big fur baby. Kudos to you! Thank you so much for care and kindness.”
About: I’ve grew up with animals since I can remember. I had to stop myself from brining home every animal that needed a home haha. Being around animals so often, mainly dogs and cat has taught me not only how to properly take care of them but also understand them while building a loving and trusting bond. Yolenny is the founder of a dedicated pet care service called Moos faithful hounds LLC. Her inspiration to Create this business was inspired her profound love for animals and in memory of her French bulldog, Moo Friend. She believes every animal is unique and deserves personalized care. My passion for animals and the drive to begin training blossomed as I cared for both my dogs, Nala and Moo. However, Nala my Labrador was what sparked my interest to start training. Through Nala, I learned the foundations of dog training. Over time, through formal courses and hands-on experience, I discovered a true calling: connecting with each dogs unique personality and needs, so I can help them thrive. As a military service member, my mission is to bring my love, knowledge, and experience to every pet I care for, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and understood When I provide my services, safety is always my priority. Safety protocols can be different for each pet. With that being said, I always communicate with the owner to understand and adjust safety protocols based on each pet's needs.

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 Glen Ridge. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Glen Ridge. On Rover:
- 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
