“I used Kyla at the last second and she was extremely accommodating, professional and kind, and sent great pictures of my dog to boot. I am happy to have found a trustworthy dog walker”
“Cheryl was the sweetest with our dogs! Cared a lot about what worked for them and was extremely friendly. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for care for their dogs!”
About: I have never not had a dog as far back as I can remember. I love being around them. From puppies to senior dogs also. As of Dec. 27th I will be working full time, however I can still do walks, drop ins and overnight stays. I can still do morning walks and evening walks. Can walk dogs from a small walk to up to several miles if needed, on a hike and just play ball if needed. I currently do not have a yard to be able to have a dog at my home. Hope to change that in the future as needed
About: I grew up with three pets, two cats and one dog until I was 15 years old when they all transitioned. I was responsible for feeding and giving them water, walking, and bathing them. In adulthood I’ve cared for roommate’s pets for multiple days at a time including a puppy less than one year old. I’ve also walked friends’ dogs and love animals big and small. I work full time and will be available after Monday and Tuesday on weekdays past 4pm and have flexible availability on weekends just depends on what’s going on! I’m a kind individual who respects a person’s space and all who live there. I’m all about safety and have previous experience with small children so I have a careful eye.
“Jamie was fantastic and great at communicating. She took really good care of our dogs and rabbit. After the nightmare we had with another sitter on Rover, Jamie was a great relief. I would highly recommend her!”
“Tyler was amazing! He answered very quickly on Christmas too, and he was so sweet to Eve and made sure to ask permission before bringing his golden! I’m glad he did our goldens had so much fun on the walk together !”
About: I have always had a love for animals. Growing up, I always had pets, mostly dogs and cats but also rodents, snakes, and frogs. I have also volunteered for 2 animal shelters in the past and still actively volunteer at one with walking dogs. I am currently in school and working part time but somehow still have plenty of free time! I love helping out people especially when it comes to caring for their pets when they cannot, whether that be at work or on vacation. I will always keep any animals on leashes or in the house. I will keep the same principles as my own dogs and will always keep them safe and keep their boundaries granted.
About: I’ve had my own dog and have cared for family and friends dogs for years. I also have dog bathing and nail trimming experience. I have a dog with anxiety so I know how to be patient and caring with them. While working as a dog bather I made sure the dogs felt safe and loved in a new environment. I currently work part time so I am available thursday through sunday to help take care of you and your pets needs! My hours vary each day and are open early morning to night time In my home I allow dogs on furniture and in beds. I also have a long leash for them to run around outback. I can provide dog washing as well. I can take them on walks or snuggle up with them. If they have any specific needs I can help with that as well.
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and absolutely love caring for them! I currently have one dog and three cats, so I’m very comfortable caring for both dogs and cats with different personalities and needs. I’m experienced with feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic medications, and giving pets plenty of love and attention. I treat every pet like they’re my own and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and happy while they’re in my care! I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve.

About: Growing up as a child, I have always been around and loved animals. My experience in pet care is from having different pets of my own and volunteering! Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I am a stay at home mom so I will have plenty of time to play and cuddle with your pup! I am available daily for sittings and walks. I will follow pet owners instructions, communicate very often, and send lots of pictures. Your home and pets will be treated just like my own!
About: I enjoy dogs and I enjoy walks so what better way to combine the two than becoming a Rover walker! I have most experience with small and medium dogs. I work flexible hours in my full time job currently, I am sure we can work something out that works for both of our schedules! Dogs bring so much joy to our lives! I love to walk and explore the neighborhood with a furry companion, throw a ball, and cuddle up with sweet dogs.
About: I have had my own dog since I was 5 years old, since then I’ve had 5 different dogs. From poodles, to chihuahuas, to bulldogs! I’ve always been an animal lover and my house has always been filled with them. I dogsat for 2 years from the ages 17-19 and it was my favorite job that I’ve had yet. I am available all fridays and Saturdays. Tuesday-Thursday I am available after 2:30pm. Sundays and Mondays i am available before 1:30pm. Availability can change. I am looking for an on-going long-term set schedule, however your personal life may change so I can be flexible 😊 I have a medium size fenced yard that they can play and run around in. I live near the boardwalk where I can take them for runs or just a simple walk, I live by parks as well. I live with my family who also love animals and can shower them with extra love. I have 2 cats who mind their business around the house lol.
About: Hi! I'm Danielle! I have been an animal lover my whole life! I grew up around dogs and recently had to put my kitty cat, Gray, down. I am 36 years old, and currently live in Egg Harbor Township. I work weekdays for Atlantic County, so my nights are always free! Your family member would be my main concern! They would get whatever they need and be the center of attention! I love being outdoors, so if he/she does too, we'll be outside as much as possible! I am a photographer on the side, so expect lots of pictures both while you're away and when you get back! I find that it is helpful to send Mom/Dad daily updates to keep your mind at ease.
About: I have owned and/or lived with 4 pets since childhood: three dogs and 1 cat. I am an active walker, feeder, cuddle buddy, caregiver, and devoted Dog-Mom. I have also house/dog-sat in the past for an elderly dog requiring special care for weaker legs. In addition, I have walked other family dogs and aided older dogs in need of special attention. I am currently working freelance on my own schedule, so I am more than willing to free up time for your fur-baby. I am available 5 days a week: Tuesday through Thursday anytime before 6pm and fully free on Monday and Friday, as well as most weekends. I have a 3-year old mutt who I currently walk 2-3 times everyday, feed, and love. I have two dog seats for car transportation (one for a small dog and one for a medium sized dog). I also have extra leashes for walks if need be. I can transport myself to your home with my car.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Linwood is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters 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 October 2026, there are 489 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Linwood. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter 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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Linwood. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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 sitter.
