“Alison is soo loving, sweet and compassionate with my Lotus. I appreciate how patient, gentle and reliable she is. She communicates super well and tell me how their entire walks go. She makes me feel at ease knowing that he's in good care with her. She took the time to learn him to ensure their walks go well and that is a plus being that my baby has quite a few rules lol. Im so happy to have come across her.”
About: I grew up with my family dog (mini schnauzer) and now have an orange tabby cat of my own. I’ve pet sat for several lovable pets through the years and am always excited to have the opportunity to meet and take care of dogs and cats alike! I’m currently in between jobs, so I have lots of time to care for pets and help with other household tasks that might be needed. When caring for pets in someone’s home, I follow all necessary instructions on meeting all of their needs. I focus on safety and comfort, as I do with my own pets.
About: Enthusiastic dog and cat lover. Exotic pets welcome! Perfectly capable of handling any cleanup necessary. No experience with "extremely" disabled pets but I'd love to gain some! I don't smoke, I have reliable transportation, and I'm a fervent cruelty free advocate! I have 6 pets of my own, 2 dogs & 4 cats. Milo orange male, George orange male, Cashew orange male, Prim tabby female. Olive black lab, Sabrina chocolate lab. I'm able and eager to care for big & small animals of all breeds. I'd love to work with hamsters, mice, gerbils, rats, etc. I had rats from 2021-2023. I'm not afraid of "bully" breeds, truly I adore them. If you have any questions feel free to message me! I'm unemployed at the moment (8/6/26) so I've endless time for pet play and care! I somewhat frequently have to administer medication to my older pets for various reasons. If your pet needs that I can provide with proper teaching from you, just to make sure I don't make a mistake. I cannot currently care for your pets at my home, not with 6 of my own. However I can play with, exercise with, feed, water, walk, and give lots of love to your fur baby.
About: I have always had pets growing up and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from owning my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. My husband works nights and I work days so there is always someone home to make sure your fur baby is taken care of and loved on! Our residence features ample space in the garage, and a spacious fenced-in backyard. As pet owners ourselves, with two golden doodles and a cat, we understand the stress associated with leaving them behind. Consequently, we would provide a nurturing environment, treating boarded pets like our own, with generous playtime outside of their kennels and the attention and affection they are accustomed to receiving at home. ❤️
About: I am a CMA, and have worked in 4 vets offices over the years. I can give medication (oral, topicals or shots). I have been a groomer for 9ish years (traveling to homes and in grooming shops). I also come packing a huge heart ready to love whatever babies you have. I have cared for them all and really to care for yours!💜 I recently had surgery in March but have been cleared for work. I am a mobile groomer for myself so my schedule is very flexible. Working with vets/in hospitals, I have learned the best way to keep your animals safe and happy is to stay in their own home. Cars and new environments can cause a lot of stress or anxiety. Drop in visits and house sitting keeps your pet in a safe and comfortable place without the exposure to others or their pets.

About: Hi! My name is Elena, and caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I understand that pets aren’t just pets—they’re family—and I treat every animal in my care with patience, respect, and genuine affection. I’m attentive, calm under pressure, and very observant of behavior changes, which helps me keep pets safe and comfortable. Whether your dog needs a relaxing walk, structured routine, or extra reassurance while you’re away, I tailor my care to their individual needs. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins so pets receive consistent attention, structure, and care throughout the day. I prioritize safety and trust at all times. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, feeding instructions, and house rules. I keep environments clean, secure, and calm, supervise pets closely, and provide regular updates so owners feel confident and informed.
About: I bring extensive experience from working at both an animal boarding facility and a veterinary clinic, with knowledge of many different species. I can help with everything from starting potty training to ensuring your pets get the best care possible. I work full-time at a veterinary clinic that also specializes in boarding. Before becoming a vet technician, I spent two years as a full-time animal caregiver. I truly respect your wishes and always put your pet’s safety first. I’ve cared for pets in their own homes, making sure they feel loved, comfortable, and safe no matter who they are with.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 598 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Irvington. 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 Irvington. 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 Irvington.
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 Irvington. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs

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.
