“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: Top notch dog sitting: I’ve doggy sat dogs of all ages all the way from 4 weeks old to 17 years old, tailored for your furry friend :) I currently work remotely with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pup or kitty throughout the day. When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I ensure a comfortable and safe environment tailored to their needs. This includes regular feeding and water replenishment, exercise and playtime, administering medications if required, maintaining cleanliness, and providing companionship and affection. I’ll always send updates and photos so you know your dog is safe and doing well. 📸🐶🦮🐩🐾🦴🐈😺🩷🤳

About: I have been dog sitting for over 4 years now and the types of dogs have ranged from a few weeks old to 15 years old. I grew up with dogs and I even help volunteer at an animal shelter when I have the chance. I’ve animal sat for: dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, turtles, and more. I also work at a doggy daycare and boarding facility where I take care of pups all ages and breeds. I work part time and have plenty of time to take care of any animal I only work 4 hours on most days which gives me a lot of time to play and socialize with the animals. On Monday and Wednesday I work 7 hours, from 9-12 and 2-6 in between those time I will be with your fur baby’s aswell. Tuesdays and Thursdays I have school at 8-11am. Tuesdays I work 2-6. Fridays I work 8-12pm. So your animals will only be home alone short amounts of time. I plan to let out the animals every 4 hours or earlier on Monday and Wednesday’s. Then on any other day I will be with them every second I can be and I will be letting them out very frequently or as often as asked.
“Kellie and Paige were both great with my dog. He’s a bigger dog and is kinda scared of meeting new people, and they were very patient with him and I on introductions and when they would come by to take him for walks. I also had several shift changes for the month I was here and they were great at communicating and flexible with their schedules, which was very kind. I would definitely recommend them to anyone.”
About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life, including starting dog sitting when I was 13 years old. I also have two dogs of my own, and I spend time taking care of them to the best of their needs! For additional fee, I’d love to draw a photo of your pet! I am currently working part-time and a full time student, and I would love to add your pet to my routine! I love taking walks outside and playing with all animals, so I would love to find the perfect enrichment for your pet! I have a safe, walkable neighborhood to take your fur baby on walks that will be enjoyable for your dog! I also have dog beds and toys for downtime.
“Lauren did an amazing job with my pup Robin! She was so gentle and attentive with Robin. Lauren took the time to make Robin feel so comfortable before they took off on their walk. I would highly recommend Lauren to anyone that is looking for a kind and nice person to take care of their pets!”
“Elena responded quickly to my request, was flexible with meeting me and scheduling walks without much notice, and was very friendly with my pups! She also followed up with me about how the walk went to keep me posted so I didn't have to worry! Thanks, Elena!”
“Jess was such a wonderful pet sitter. From the first time I requested a meet and greet she was incredibly responsive. She was so patient with our skittish pup and very understanding when we had to reschedule when my daughter got sick. She went above and beyond making sure the dogs and house were well taken care of. All her efforts were noticed and very much appreciated. Thanks again Jess!”
About: I've had both dogs and cats and they've always been my best friends and cared for like family. I think this would be the perfect summer job for me. I'm avaiabke everyday during the summer 10am-6pm, then I will be available weekends only. I have many years of experience walking my own dogs and sometimes other peoples too. I'm just starting at Rover but at home my pets are the kings and queens of the house. We're super close and they completely trust me.
About: I have been around pets my whole life. I had a beagle that was 2 when I was born so I grew up helping care for her. I have cared for turtles, fish, and a chameleon. Currently, I have a cat that I have raised from birth. I have helped my aunt with her two golden retrievers when she needed someone to take them out during the day and feed them while she was at work or away on vacation. For the past two summers, I have cared for my uncle's 12 year-old chocolate lab when their family is on vacation. She is a senior dog that needs a little more care and consideration. I am a recent high school graduate and my summer is open. I am attending Mott Community College in the fall, so I am also not going away to school. I plan to provide service to the client at their home. I currently live at home, so I can't care for animals at my house.

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 Linden. 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 Linden.

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 Linden. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 98% 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 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.
