“Brittany is very reliable, patient, and good with my dog. We always appreciate when she can squeeze time in her schedule for us. She takes extra precaution and care making sure Harley is comfortable and safe and her little acts of care go such a long way! We highly recommend her to anyone who wants someone they can trust with their loved ones 😊”

About: I have been walking dogs for five years and have loved every minute of it! This is more than just a job for me I am committed to providing the best experience possible to your pup! I am familiar administering meds and leash training. Whatever your dogs needs, whether it be running, walking, or just a cuddle and a quick visit outside I will show up with enthusiasm and a smile! Pet care is my only job, I work five days a week and am available 9-4, during those hours I am completely available for pet care unless I have an unavoidable appointment or ilness I ask my clients the boundaries at first meeting, where they are comfortable with me being in the house, any areas they would rather I not enter and adhere to what makes them most secure. On walks I stay in the doorway whenever possible, I try to be seen and not heard unless approached for conversation.
About: I've been caring for animals of every kind since I was 10. I have over 25+ years experience working with animals as an animal behavioralist and dog trainer. I am also a Veterinary Technician (LVT). I am very passionate when it comes to dogs, any breed and size! I have been blessed to work and train with many ethologists (behavioralists), service dogs, K-9 units, leader dogs for the blind, and also at Wolf sanctuaries as a veterinary medical specialist throughout the United States. I specialize in pet first aid, senior care, medicating and CPR. Currently taking new clients and am looking forward to meeting you and your fur babie(s). At the present time, I have open availability to do house sitting, dog walking, cat care, obedience training and drop in visits. I will update any changes to my availability often. Pet safety and trust is my number one goal! I would like to first get to know you and your dog or cat through a meet and greet. I would like to assure you peace of mind and for your pet to feel comfortable as well. Will make any accommodations needed! My schedule is flexible, so will be able to cater to your pets needs! I'm also available weekends and holidays for house sitting or drop in visits. (*Additional charges will apply for house sitting & drop in visits during holiday dates*) Even though I have my own spoiled fur baby, please note that he will not be accompanying me to your home. His grandparents are more than happy to watch and spoil him rotten!! :) Please let me know your pet's schedule/needs. If they require scheduled medication or trips to the bathroom frequently. Also, how many hours that they can be left alone during a possible work day. I will definitely make every effort to accommodate a special needs pet ( separation anxiety, frequent medication administering, insulin, feeding tube, etc.(*Depending on the severity of the situation of your pet, please note that there may be additional charges for them during house sitting*)

About: Hi there! I am “THE FENTON DOG NANNY” Most of my clients are “word of mouth” only and I do book up pretty far in advance as I only take ONE client at a time. I do try to keep the calendar up to date but it is always best to contact me thru Rover for exact schedules as some do change over the course of time. I own my newly renovated very clean home with a fenced in back yard in Downtown Fenton. I am grateful to have a peaceful home where I live alone (no kids!) with my 17 year old yorkie “Daisy Duke.” Daisy Duke runs the entire show in my home. She still walks 3 miles a day and she is convinced she is a BIG dog! She gets along great with puppies, big dogs, and she is very sensitive to dogs with anxiety issues as she herself is a rescue dog 🐾🍀. Daisy Duke has 2 rules… #1 ~ “Don’t eat my food” #2 ~ “Don’t sniff my butt” I do require a meet and greet prior to a booking. I would also prefer that your dog is recently groomed before staying in my home. (Dogs who ahed excessively will be charged a $10/day fee that goes directly to my amazing housekeeper) I am a pet owner and animal lover. I grew up with a large family Full of pets and my family comes from a farming background so I have always been around, cared for, nurtured and loved on every single animal you could imagine! I live in DOWNTOWN FENTON and I visit all of the many surrounding parks on a daily basis with my dog and the dogs that I take care of! I have had my own dog (s) my entire adult life. I currently have a 15 year old Yorkie. I am comfortable bathing, walking, feeding, playing with and caring for your pets regardless if your pet was just born or entering senior years. I recently retired from Corporate America. I am an energetic outdoors woman with a flexible schedule and look forward to meeting your pets! I can quickly and easily pass all background checks including criminal, financial, physical and psychological. Please feel free to contact me to discuss my services. Yours truly, Angie M. I am retired so I can accommodate most schedules and requests at my home or in your home or for drop in services/pet walking etc. in my home: I have a fenced in yard to keep your fur babies safe and protected! All dogs are welcome on all of my furniture and can roam my 3000 sq foot super clean and well kept home as they please. In your home: ( I am currently only booking clients that will allow my yorkie Miss Daisy Duke to accompany me/us.) I will stay at your house 24/7 and will leave on occasion to run errands or snag a quick workout by myself.
About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. When I ran my company, my employees used to bring their dogs to work, and I loved having them there! I now care for pets full time and recently joined Rover. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone while you’re away. I like knowing the little things about your pup, like which toy they look for and where they like to be scratched. If they love fetch, we have plenty of room to play in my big backyard. If they’d rather take a slow walk and curl up beside me afterward, that sounds like a pretty good afternoon to me, too. I’ll follow the routine they’re used to so they can settle in and feel at home. Pet care is something I genuinely love, and I’m fortunate to be able to dedicate myself to it full time! My schedule is flexible, which allows me to give the pets in my care my full attention. I enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means going for walks, playing, cuddling, or simply keeping them company. I know how much our pets mean to us, and I want every owner to feel confident that their furry family member is getting the same love, attention, and care they would receive at home. I absolutely love spending time with animals! One thing I’ve learned over the years is that every pet has a personality of their own, and I seem to have a natural instinct for understanding what makes them happy. Some dogs love playing fetch, chasing a Frisbee, or being challenged to learn new tricks. Others love swimming in our lake, which is something we can enjoy together with their owner’s permission and proper supervision. And if they don’t like water, that’s perfectly fine! We can go for walks, play their favorite games, or find something else they enjoy. Then there are those who would rather just relax, cuddle, have their belly rubbed, or curl up in their doggie bed with someone nearby. I love that just as much! I believe the best way to care for animals is to pay attention to their individual personalities, respect their routines, and let them enjoy the things that make them happy. Whether I’m caring for a playful puppy, a senior dog, or a cat who prefers a little independence, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. After all, they’re part of the family!
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs of all ages, sizes and temperaments (including dogs with disabilities)my whole life and have always had a passion for being around them. I’ve worked for groomers and dog daycares.I am skilled in bathing and giving oral and injectable medications. I’m currently only available for daycare on weekends. I’m available for drop ins and let outs any time after 2pm on weekdays, all day on Saturday and after 11am on Sunday. I love playing and being outside with dogs. I never let a dog out of my sight and I’m extremely patient. I love that every dog has their own personality and quirks and I’m very quick to adjust and tend to their needs.
“Daisy suggested to me the other day that Harley is not a huge fan of walking in the dark so I got her a glow-in-the-dark collar and it was a huge success for my dog. It alleviated her anxiety during their walk. So thank you Daisy for being such an amazing dog walker, that you made an observation that helped make my dog more comfortable on her walks. We appreciate it! We also appreciate the detailed reports on her adventures and the cute pictures you take ☺️”

The average cost of Dog Walking in Linden is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $26 per walk.

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 Linden. 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 Linden 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.

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.

- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise

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.
