About: Hi! My name is Kathleen and I am SO excited to meet your pets! Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up around dogs of all shapes and sizes from tiny Yorkshire Terriers to big, lovable Bernese Mountain Dogs. Because of that, I know how much trust goes into leaving your pup with someone else and I hope to be that person for you. I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and I love getting to know what makes each dog happiest. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, belly rubs, or just some extra company and cuddles, I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and cared for like one of my own. I have a flexible schedule right now! I can make time for walks, drop-ins, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m happy to work with your dog’s normal routine as much as possible, whether that means specific walk times, feeding schedules, or just making sure they get the right mix of activity and downtime. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my priority. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to feel completely comfortable with the person caring for your pet. In addition to following any routines or instructions you provide, I am sure to diligently check my phone for anything you may need. I am quick to respond at all hours to help ease your anxiety while you’re away. My biggest priority is keeping a close eye on your pets during walks and visits, and make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and loved while they’re with me.
“Michael was so kind and responsive. He took the time to meet my dog before even walking her. She loved him! Would absolutely recommend him for any of your pet watching needs. Thank you, Michael!”
About: I’m dependable, patient, and understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. I’ll make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog is full of energy and loves adventures or prefers a slower paced stroll, I’m happy to tailor my care to their needs. You can count on me to be punctual, communicative, and treat your pet like they’re my own. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re happy and in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I work from home full-time, giving me the flexibility to provide consistent attention, frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. I can easily adapt to your pet’s schedule I care for every pet as if they were my own by sticking closely to their normal routine. Whether I’m in your home or mine, I’ll provide plenty of exercise, playtime, attention, fresh water, meals on schedule, and a safe, clean environment. My apartment building also has a private outdoor park and rooftop deck, offering convenient spaces for fresh air and play.
“Kaitlynn is incredible and so so sweet to my dog Mikey. She goes above and beyond ♥️ My beagle loves her! In all the photos she shares with me from their walks, my dog is smiling and so happy/excited. I 1,000% recommend her and trust her with my dog. Having her come for walks while I am work gives me peace of mind and I know my dog is going to have some fun adventures 🐶”
“We have used John multiple times now for walking Pedro. Pedro has severe hip dysplasia and struggles to walk, but John understands this and has given us the comfort that Pedro is in great hands if we leave for the night. John has great communication, is punctual and loves dogs.”
“Alex has been an incredibly reliable walker for my pup. I’ve had reoccurring walks scheduled every weekday and I could not be happier with her services. She always sends me updates and is super responsive as well as flexible when I have had to cancel and rebook last second :) 10/10”
“Kaylah was so great with our pups! She was in constant communication which made us feel very at ease being her first time taking them. Would definitely recommend and book again!”
“Katherine took great care of Carmela, and kept us up to date along the way. We were so grateful for her last minute help, and for her great care for Carmela”
“Sophia was great with Roscoe and an excellent communicator. Had no issues whatsoever and was even able to help on such a short notice. Will definitely be requesting her services again in the future!”

“Thank you Roxandra!!! Roxandra was extremely responsive, and I appreciated her availability last minute to help me with a walk for my Boston terrier. She also uploaded the cutest photos. We will definitely be a repeat customer for our Kygo!”
“Paige accommodated Sonny for a last minute booking, and was very quick to respond and ask questions! She communicated well and was kind and gentle upon meeting our dog for the first time. Would repeat service if needed again.”
“Lucy is obsessed with him, she generally is shy of people but knows his face to drag me over to him to start their walk asap. She doesn't even take a look back despite having separation anxiety from me, he is amazing with her.”
About: I’ve been watching dogs for years and genuinely love spending time with them. I recently took care of a German Shepherd for a week, including staying overnight, taking her out regularly, going on walks, and playing fetch. I’m attentive, responsible, and focused on making sure every dog feels comfortable and well cared for. I currently work from home, allowing me to be available throughout the day except for meetings, providing pets with consistent attention, timely walks, playtime, and dependable care. I follow each pet’s usual routine to help them feel comfortable and at ease. I make sure they get regular walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of the space and keep everything clean and organized while providing reliable, loving care for their pet.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hoboken
Duck had the best time with Lilly! She was very communicative and arrived on time for the walk. She made sure to check if there were any special considerations for our dog before taking him out. Duck came back happy and sleepy. We’re moving, otherwise I would book her again! Highly recommend :)
Stellarae was great and I'd absolutely book her again. From the first message she was responsive, professional, and easy to coordinate with — she confirmed quickly and made the whole process simple. Communication was excellent throughout. She checked in ahead of the walk, and followed up with a nice note letting me know how everything went. The walk itself ran a bit longer than the scheduled time, which I appreciated. Stellarae was also genuinely warm and enthusiastic about the whole thing, not just going through the motions :)
Here's the updated version: Averi was fantastic! This was my first time booking a dog walker and she made the experience great. She took great care of Prince for our dog walking booking and went above and beyond: making sure his water and food were taken care of. I could tell she genuinely loves dogs. She took him on nice long walks and checked in with me whenever she had questions. Communication was easy and she was reliable and on time. Highly recommend her, will definitely be booking with Averi again.
Eduardo is very thoughtful in how he approaches and walks Teddy. I really appreciate that he’s taken the time to get to know Teddy’s quirks and habits to make sure he has a great experience on his walks. He’s also very communicative, which I really appreciate! I look forward to having Eduardo spend more time with Teddy on his walks!
Kaylah was wonderful with Stella! She was prompt, caring, and very sweet. She stayed a little longer than expected, which I really appreciated. She also sent several pictures, which was great. I felt comfortable knowing Stella was in such good hands. I would definitely book Kaylah again!
Emily was great with Betty and Bambi! I booked her for a 30 minute walk for the first time, and everything went really smoothly. The girls warmed up to her right away, which I think says a lot because you can tell she’s genuinely a dog person. She was very sweet, soft-spoken, and friendly, and I immediately felt comfortable with her. She also arrived a little early to meet us, which I really appreciated. Betty and Bambi seemed to really like her, and I’d definitely be happy to have her walk them again! 🐶❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Hoboken on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of August 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 .

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 Hoboken. 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 Hoboken.

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 Hoboken. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
