“Anne was great with my dog when we needed a dog walker last minute! She was responsive, friendly, and great at dealing with our little energetic pup. I enjoyed the cute pictures she sent each day as well! Would definitely trust her for future walks.”
About: Hi! I'm Jordan, a professional women's soccer player! While soccer keeps me busy, animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up surrounded by pets and currently have two dogs back home—a German Shorthaired Pointer named Grace and a Yellow Lab named Earl—as well as my 15-year-old black cat, Pigpen. Being away from them during the season has only made me appreciate how important it is to know they're in good hands, and that's exactly the kind of care I want to provide for your pets. I've spent years dog sitting, cat sitting, providing dog walks, and giving cats the attention and enrichment they need while their families are away. I also volunteer with local animal shelters and have training in cat enrichment, so I'm comfortable working with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just someone to keep them company and stick to their routine, I'm happy to meet them where they're at. I know every pet is different, and I treat every animal I care for like they're my own. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving you peace of mind that they're in good hands! As a professional soccer player, having structure and consistency is a big part of my daily life. My training schedule is planned well in advance, which allows me to dedicate focused time to the pets I care for. Whether it's early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening visits, I make sure each pet receives the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I know how important it is for pets to stay comfortable in their own environment, so I do everything I can to keep their routine as normal as possible. I'll follow your instructions carefully, whether that's feeding schedules, medications, favorite walking routes, playtime, or bedtime routines. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. For dogs, every walk is tailored to their age, energy level, and personality. Some dogs enjoy a long, active walk with plenty of opportunities to explore, while others are happiest with a slower pace and extra sniffing time. Safety is always my top priority, and I'll make sure your dog gets both the physical exercise and mental stimulation they need. For cats, I understand that every personality is different. Some cats love interactive play and attention, while others prefer a calm presence and a familiar routine. With my background in feline enrichment, I enjoy providing activities that keep cats engaged while always respecting their comfort level. I'll also treat your home with the same care and respect that I would my own. You can expect regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets—and your home—are in good hands.
“Courtney is so good with our goofy George. She understands his puppy mentality. She's always on time and very communicative w/ any issues. We get cute photo updates of their walks. We highly recommend Courtney for any help with your dog!”
“Donna took care of my dog Luna while we were on vacation this summer. She did an amazing job!! Luna loved her, and enjoyed her walk with Donna twice a day! Donna was punctual, kind, and put in the extra effort to care for Luna while we were gone. Will definitely be reaching out again next year. Highly recommend!!”
“Jenna has been amazing! Our pup Betty absolutely loves her, and Jenna is always sure to take some pictures and let us know of anything important. Before starting our regularly scheduled walks, Jenna was kind enough to come for a drop in and meet Betty ahead of their first walk together. She was so kind and understanding, especially as we just moved in to our new place so recently. Jenna is a natural! We’re so happy we found her, and look forward to many more good walks for our Betty! ❤️”
“I would highly recommend MaryAnn for anyone looking to treat your pups as her own..her attention to detail and knowledge base makes this mother of two rest easily. I have the utmost confidence in her ability to expertly care for my pups. I also trust that if she needs to make quick decisions she will always have my pups safety at the forefront. She is a dog mom's best resource!”
“Madison has been walking Jake, our very active, 60lb collie/heeler mix, for a few weeks now and we are delighted we found her on Rover. She is very dependable and obviously experienced with energetic dogs. Jake loves her, he watches out the window at walk time and charges to the door as soon as he sees Madison coming! We would definitely recommend Madison.”
“Nicole took the time to really gauge what Cocoa wanted each day. Some days all she wants is to play or get belly rubs and others she wants a long walk around the neighborhood. She always sent a report on how Cocoa was and what they did and included great pictures of her playing or getting pets. I couldn't recommend Nicole enough!”

About: I grew up surrounded by animals in Portugal, and my family had Serra da Estrela Mountain Dogs, two German Shepherds and a cat. Living with large guardian breeds taught me how to read a dog's mood, respect their space and stay calm when they're alert or excited. I'm comfortable with big, strong dogs, and with cats too. I also spent two years as an au pair in the US and often work with children, so I'm used to patience, routines and things not going to plan. I'm based in Montclair and available for walks, drop-in visits and house sitting. work part time I have free the most of the days from 9am to 4 pm, and after 8 pm so I have flexible hours during the day for walks and playtime. I'm also available on weekends, including overnight stays. Tell me your dog's routine and I'll fit around it adapt to your dog and your home. We'll agree on the schedule, feeding and any special needs beforehand, and I follow your instructions closely. If anything feels off, I'll contact you right away.
About: I live with and care for two dogs every day, an Olde English Bulldog & a Frenchie, my two lovable shadows. Living with these goofballs means I know brachycephalic breads well, when they've had enough sun, and when the walk needs to slow down. I have experience with senior dogs and IVDD. Feeding, walking, running, cuddling, companionship, I am comfortable well beyond just walks, so home visits and check-ins are right up my alley. I lift weights four times a week, so big, strong, or energetic pups don't faze me. I have been dog walking off Rover for some time in the area, and am now bringing my services to the greater public. I currently have a flexible, open schedule and can accommodate walks (or runs) and visits throughout the day, including short notice requests. Mornings, afternoons, and evenings all work for me, and I am happy to build a consistent routine around your pup's needs. When caring for pets in a clients home, I am respectful of both their space and their pet's routine. I take the time to help pets feel comfortable with me, give them plenty of attention and exercise based on their individual needs, and provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are safe and happy while they are away.

Grace has once again done an amazing job taking care of my two dogs while I was out of town, just like she has the previous times. She has such a natural ability to bond with pets and make them feel comfortable and loved. She’s incredibly trustworthy, reliable, and caring. I always feel completely at ease knowing my dogs are in her hands. Highly recommend Grace!
Vivian had been an amazing dog walker for my pup. She comes about once a week and is trustworthy and reliable. She send us updates and pictures and we know our dog is in good hands. Our pup tends to be nervous around strangers but we know she is very comfortable with Vivian. I cannot recommend Vivian enough!

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

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.
