About: Hi, I’m Aria✨ I’m a JC local who enjoys long walks at the park (with your dog). My love for animals started when I volunteered to dog-walk and help find dogs a home at an SPCA in Charleston, SC for 3 yrs. Since then, I’ve been taking care of my family, friends, and neighbors dogs :) I’ll only confirm a dog-walk and dog sitting shift if I’m working from home and can guarantee I can be present with your fur baby •Affection (dogs love company that make them feel comfortable and loved). I’m always sure to make them feel seen and cared for. It can be tough on them being away from their caregiver. So affection goes a long way. •Making sure they’re fed & hydrated (always attending them according to their usual/specific routine).

About: I always look forward to watching the pets of family & friends. Love dogs! As a passionate pet lover, I have spent a lot of my life caring for pets of all ages and needs. I have owned some dogs over the years and have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, and sick senior dogs. Additionally, I am often tasked with taking care of my family's pets. Whether feeding, walking, playing, or administering medication, I have the experience, responsibility, and attention to ensure your pet is happy, healthy well-cared for. With me as your pet sitter, you can rest easy knowing your furry friend is great. Currently, I'm just studying from home. So I can always take care of the pet, and provide food and exercise at times determined by the owners. As soon as the pet arrives, I ensure that it has good accommodation, such as water and food, and that everything is following what was suggested by the owners. Indoor play programs and I take them for walks. The floors are disinfected regularly for everyone's health. All indoor and outdoor areas are spray disinfected with a veterinarian-formulated, EPA-registered cleaner to inhibit a broad spectrum of virus-causing pathogens, including SARS and COVID-19. We have comfortable daycare bedding that is also washed and disinfected daily for safety and comfort. Features & Benefits of our OUTDOOR Play Spaces for Dogs and Puppies: Pet-friendly K9 grass, a specialty artificial turf, allows for regular disinfection and prevents muddy paws for cleanliness and safety; Wide open area with tall fencing enables dogs to safely run and explore without distractions; Sturdy pet-friendly non-porous play structures are cleaner and more comfortable than wood

About: With over 10 years of pet care experience, I have nurtured a deep understanding of the unique needs and behaviors of various animals. From dogs and cats to birds, etc. I've provided compassionate care, ensuring their well-being and happiness. My experience encompasses everything from basic feeding and walking routines and playing. I prioritize building strong bonds with pets and their owners, fostering trust and confidence in my abilities to provide exceptional care. My schedule for pet sitting is quite flexible and can be tailored to meet your needs. Generally, I am available after 3:00pm from Monday-Friday and available all day on Saturdays and Sundays. However, I recommend contacting me with specific dates and times you require pet sitting services, so we can discuss availability and ensure I can accommodate your schedule accordingly. Additionally, I am open to overnight stays and extended periods of care if necessary. Whether caring for pets in my own home or at a client's home, my approach remains centered on providing the highest level of comfort, safety, and companionship for the animals entrusted to my care. I have three dogs (two small poodles and one medium sized golden doodle) as well as (two cats).

About: I have a strong fondness for dogs and cats! Although I didn't have pets at home while growing up, I thoroughly enjoyed spending time at the homes of my family, friends, and neighbors, caring for and playing with their dogs. I work remotely. My schedule is very flexible, and I can walk or play with your dog or cat in the morning, afternoon, and early evening. When caring for pets, whether in my own home or a client's, I prioritize their well-being and comfort. I ensure a safe environment, regular feeding, ample water, and scheduled walks or playtime. Additionally, I follow any specific care instructions provided by the owner and maintain clear communication with the owner regarding the pet's behavior and health. I strive to create a nurturing and loving atmosphere, making sure the pets feel at ease and cared for during their time with me.

Nima did a fantastic job walking our Oli and I highly recommend her. She is punctual, professional, and extremely loving to all of our pets! Nima was also flexible with scheduling and willing to accommodate our (Oli’s) needs when we needed to modify the booking. She was also extremely patient when our Oli was being stubborn on walks or potty breaks, which we greatly appreciated, especially the photos of their walks when he was serving serious diva face! 😂 We will definitely be utilizing her services again in the future and cannot recommend her enough!

About: As someone who genuinely loves animals, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I provide reliable, loving care and always treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, medication (if needed), and keeping your pet on their normal routine. My goal is to make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away, while giving you peace of mind. As a school social worker, I have my summers off and was looking for a meaningful way to spend my time while doing something that brings me a sense of peace. Caring for animals has always been calming for me, and I’d love to spend my summer helping pet parents feel at ease while they’re away. My schedule is very flexible during the summer, allowing me to provide dependable, attentive care and plenty of time with your pets. As a school social worker, creating a safe, calm, and trusting environment is at the heart of what I do every day, and I bring that same approach to caring for pets. I understand that every animal has their own personality and routine, and I’ll take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s following detailed care instructions, keeping your home tidy during visits, or sending regular photo updates, my goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely at ease.

About: I've cherished the company of pets throughout my entire life, ranging from the tiniest Shih Tzu to the majestic Siberian Huskies. My active lifestyle perfectly aligns with my passion for taking dogs on invigorating walks and spending countless hours engaged in joyful play with them. My experience extends beyond my own pets, as I've diligently cared for animals belonging to my uncles, even tending to my neighbor's cherished cats. I've also gone the extra mile to care for Guinea Pigs on behalf of my friends. My affinity for animals knows no bounds, and I genuinely cherish and adore each and every one of them. I’m currently attending school and working part-time so I am mostly only free on the weekends. Most of the time with a heads up I can make availability any day of the week. I live on a completely fenced property and I even have a doggy door for our furry friends. I know a few good doggy parks nearby that I can take our friends to in my car. I will always put the safety of our friendly little buddies first!

About: I used to dog sitting my friends dog because I couldn’t have my own dog. So I gained dog sitting experience from there. Now I have my own baby, and I would still love to share my love with other dogs. My baby also loves to make friends. So it’s a win win situation. Walking the dogs two to three times. Morning, before lunch, and dinner. Playtime and socializing time with my dog. If there’s special needs, let me know. I live in an apartment where there are two dog parks around. There is a path by my apartment and by the river which is safe to walk.

Enyonam was wonderful! This was my first time using a dog walker and I was slightly worried about the process. We were away for a week and wanted to find someone to help out my elderly father in law who was watching my dog. I looked at Enyonam’s profile and booked her. From the moment she picked up Artie, I got pictures and notifications, and it immediately made me feel at ease. I will absolutely book her next time I go away, she is the perfect person to take care of your pup! :-)

FAQs for Dog Walking - Harrison

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Harrison on Rover is $16.65 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 28,349 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Harrison. 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 Harrison. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Harrison.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 Harrison. On Rover:

  • 88% 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 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.
