“Jaylene came the day after our meet and greet to walk our dog Remi! She was easy to communicate with to make plans and schedule. Jaylene took her time to win over Remi, who can be a little shy and skeptical upon meeting someone new. They went for a walk and Jaylene updated me with everything Remi did. Remi and I look forward to our next booking with Jaylene!”

About: Hi my name is Idaly. I am a 22 year old responsible pet Sitter. Hablo también español. ~My Experience~ 1) Volunteered at 11th hour rescue for 6 years where I worked with cats & dog. From feeding, kennel cleaning, socializing and medication/supplement administration. 2) BA Biology graduate who also took animal related courses such as animal handling, nutrition and behavior. 3) I love animals so I studied abroad in Belize and worked with farm animals, pets & wildlife animals! I got a lot of practice with SUB Q/IM vaccines, taking vitals signs & more! 4) I am a Hopatcong Emergency Medical Responder/EMT & Secretary Officer. I aided in Oscar’s fires in providing emergency care for their dogs & firemen. 5) I had pets my whole life! I have experience with chickens, dogs, cats, leopard gecko, birds, bunnies etc My extreme patience & love for animals is what makes me a great sitter. I understand the feelings when it comes to unreliable sitters(I had one before) & I am here to reassure you that I will treat your pet with love, care & respect. I will always be on time, and no weather or snow storm has stopped me from making it to a visit. This is my fulltime job. I have a lot of experience with nervous, scared, and reactive dogs. ~My Care~ Drop in visits: 🏠 I always leave the home as I found it or even better! I will fetch your packages, take out the trash & tidy up any messes your pet may make☺️ I pay close attention to detail, such as cleaning dogs faces and their eye boogers, brushing cats hair, cleaning dogs paws after spending time outside, and making sure your pet eats by using using techniques I learned at 11th hour rescue. Boarding Cats/small pets: (no dogs) 🌙 Boarding at my place. I am available for pet sitting 24/7. Your pet will always be accompanied. Your pet will have their own room with ac/heater & tv for napping. I do not mix different clients pets for their safety. Cats may free roam the house as well! Bunnies will be taken out to my fenced yard to enjoy the grass/outdoors. Any small caged pet such as reptiles will be in my room (away from other pets) for me to take care of! For boarding I’m able to pick up/drop off cats at an added cost(only for nearby towns). Pet parent will receive at least 4 updates per day. ~My Policy~ All pets must have no bite history, not be aggressive & rabies vaccinated. ~Dog walking~ 🐕 Walks are only during day time. No night time walks (for my & your dogs safety). Must provide poop bags for walks. I highly recommended walks to be done when the sun isn’t too strong. Either morning or late afternoon/evening. Just so your doggy can enjoy the walk:) ~Availability~ Pet sitting is my fulltime job!

With cats I will scoop their litter every visit, sweep, feed cat, provide fresh water, wash bowls, and interact with your cat either by playing or brushing your cat.

About: I have loved and cared for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. I grew up with all kinds of animals in my homes and have had additional experience with birds, fish, chickens, hamsters, mice, snakes, geckos, bunnies, and others over my last 30 years. Though it hasn’t been my full time profession in years, I spent many years managing a boarding facility alongside an animal hospital, which remains to this day my absolute favorite job. I find no greater joy than helping ease the anxiety that the animal babies feel when they are away from the comfort of their own homes. I have successfully trained a number of puppies including large “bully breeds” and I especially enjoy helping rescues find comfort in new homes after questionable upbringings. Above all, my heart pours love and gratitude into animal babies because I believe they deserve the same unconditional love that they give to us humans. I work part time and make my own schedule. I am incredibly flexible and am used to a swing schedule where I can get up early or stay up late in order to accommodate the needs of my clients. I have a multiple acre wooded property. Though it is not entirely fenced in I am skilled at leash walking/training and my property backs up to miles of trails that are part of a wildlife refuge. I currently have a one year old female Beagle/Belgian Malinois mix who is crate trained but also does stay at home alone freely at this age with no incidents. She is incredible with other dogs and people, overall very sweet and friendly. I am willing to crate your pup if that is what you prefer, but am also ok with a free roaming pup. I work only on a free-lance basis and do all of my work based around my pet sitting, drop in, and walking schedule. So your animals are my number one priority! I have added a fence on my wooded property to accommodate pups that need some freedom from a leash to do their ‘business’ 😆 and of course my sweet, friendly, playful pup Rainy is always ready to wrestle, chase, or cuddle her new friends!

I work part-time, so I will be able to devote myself to play time bonding and daily walks for your pups and cats. It is crucial that pets are given attention when their other family members are unable to!

About: Pet owner/caretaker for life. Former volunteer of animal shelter, pet therapy w/ my greyhound & spent vacations feeding strays. Experience grooming, training and giving medications. ✨ 12/2024 I fostered and then adopted from TX, an adorable, tripod chihuahua/rat terrier/italian greyhound mix. She loves everyone and wants to meet every dog possible. She is 7 lbs and has a lot of energy. I can still board, and keep them separate if you wish. I just want you to know about her. I will absolutely still love your dog too, but I now have one too. I have the ability to keep a dog on the first floor and have a couple of steps to get in. I have a yard with plenty of space, no fence. I have wooden floors and plenty of room if you need to bring in a crate. We can take walks around my neighborhood or go to a nearby park. I have experience with shelter dogs and many breeds. I also have experience with puppies, kittens/cats, guinea pigs, rabbits & birds. I’m here to help.

“First, I've never used this type of service before. Alissa was accommodating, attentive, prompt and very caring for my dog, Lilly. If Alissa is the standard of the type of people that will care for my dog, I would use this service again, without a doubt. And, I wouldn't hesitate in booking Alissa, and recommending her to everyone.”

Jaylene was always punctual, and so attentive to my pup. She always let me know exactly what time she would be heading over, and if the dog pooped/peed/took treats. Bonus! I have two cats that were not a part of the booking, but she was excited to see and pet them, and even gave them some treats, and sent me extra pictures! Jaylene is fatlntastic, and provided just what my pup needed!!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Ledgewood

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Ledgewood is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $31 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 8,698 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Ledgewood. 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 Ledgewood. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Ledgewood after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 Ledgewood. On Rover:

  • 84% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

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.
