“Michelle is extremely professional and my dog warmed up to her almost instantly. Although my dog was a bit excited in the beginning, jumping on her, Michelle kept her cool and they had a great walk together! If you want your pet to be treated like family, Michelle is your go to person! Passionate about dogs and a true animal lover! Thanks Michelle!”
“Leah is fabulous dog walker. I felt very confident leaving our dog in her care while we were away. She was thorough, caring, and kind. She always sent us detailed reports, along with pictures of our dog’s progress.”
“Emily took great care of our dog while we were away!! The communication and care was amazing! Given that the doggy was not feeling his best, she helped him out and updated us how he was doing! And was creative when we hit a snag with the access to our house! Would recommend her care!”
About: I was a proud dog mom for over 20 years. While my beloved pups have since crossed the rainbow bridge, my love for dogs has never faded. I enjoy spending time with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I understand the importance of providing them with patience, attention, and care. I would love the opportunity to treat your furry family member as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with pets. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so caring for them is something I genuinely look forward to each day. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always follow the owner’s instructions and respect each pet’s unique personality, routine, and boundaries. I believe patience and consistency are important in building trust. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. Whether that means playtime, belly rubs (if they’re willing!), companionship, or long walks when weather and the pet’s needs allow, I will provide attentive care and treat them as if they were my own.
“Jungmin did a wonderful job taking care of my dog, Mia. She walked her with great care and regularly sent pictures and videos, which gave me peace of mind knowing Mia was happy and in good condition. Jungmin was very responsive, kind, and clearly attentive to Mia’s needs. I would absolutely hire her again and highly recommend her to anyone.”
About: What sets me apart is my combination of genuine love for animals and a strong medical background. I’ve cared for newborn puppies, senior dogs, and pets with special needs, so I understand how to monitor behavior, appetite, energy levels, and subtle signs that something may be off. I’m especially comfortable with young pets who need patience and structure, as well as senior pets who require gentler handling and close observation. I stay calm under pressure, follow instructions carefully, and prioritize safety at all times. Beyond experience, I truly bond with the animals I care for. I don’t just “watch” pets, I pay attention to their personality, their routines, and what makes them feel secure. Pet care is something I intentionally build my routine around. As I transition from the Dominican Republic to the U.S., caring for animals has become both a meaningful part of my daily life and a professional commitment. As a medical doctor, I’m naturally attentive, observant, and detail-oriented. I organize my schedule to ensure pets receive consistent attention, timely feedings, walks, playtime, and any specific care instructions their owners provide. I’m comfortable monitoring behavior, appetite, and energy levels, and I remain calm and proactive if something seems off. Caring for animals isn’t something I squeeze in, it’s something I prioritize. When caring for pets, I focus on maintaining their normal routine and environment to reduce stress and keep them comfortable. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any specific habits or preferences. As a medical doctor, I’m attentive to detail and observant of subtle changes in behavior, appetite, or energy levels. I remain calm, organized, and proactive, always prioritizing safety and hygiene. I’m also very respectful of my client’s space, keeping everything clean, secure, and just as it was left. My goal is to provide dependable care so both pets and owners feel completely at ease.
About: I've loved animals my whole life and have been around cats in one way or another for most of my life. I grew up with multiple cats and I've been taking care of my cat Cole since adopting her in 2018 as a kitten. I've been volunteering at a cat shelter for several years as a socializer and love visiting as many cats as I can when I'm there (I always stay longer than my shift). I love them dearly, always want what's best for them, and would treat your cat with the same care concern I'd treat for my own. I'd be happy to provide drop-in visits for feedings/etc or to provide your cat with some play/social time! I love meeting new cats and taking in their unique quirks! While I've had a lot more exposure to felines, I've spent time and cared for several dogs as well and would gladly care for yours while you are away. I've had a lot of good experiences with them - I’m good pals with my landlady's pitbull and my dad’s chocolate lab! I’ll give your dog lots of attention and be mindful of their personality, especially during walks. I’ve had some anxious ones that can get a bit testy when they see other dogs during walks and I’ve handled them well. I'm between jobs at the moment, so I am fairly flexible in terms of availability with some notice. Sunday is my day for volunteering, though I can swap my shift if need be to provide your pet with the care it needs. I'm happy to arrange for shorter/longer visits on single/recurring basis. Can assist with feedings, playtime or just hang out and provide them a loving lap! Also happy to provide photo/video updates of your fur babies to help put your mind(s) at ease!
“Sherrie was reliable and loving- an ideal combination! She went the extra mile (literally!) walking our dog Millie to make sure Millie was thoroughly exercised. She checked Millie's water bowls without us asking. Sherrie also communicated with us clearly, promptly, and warmly. We will definitely try and hire her again when Millie needs some extra attention. Thank you, Sherrie!!”
About: I have 30 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, from brand new puppies to beloved seniors who need extra support. I’m reliable, patient, and very detail oriented, and I always follow your routines exactly to keep your dog comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I also have puppy training experience, so I can help reinforce the cues and habits you’re already working on perfect for keeping your training consistent. For senior dogs, I offer gentle, attentive care, whether they need medication reminders, slower walks, or just a calm presence throughout the day. What sets me apart is the way I tailor every visit to each dog and each household. No two dogs are the same, and I pay close attention to their personality, energy level, and comfort needs. Whether your dog thrives on structured play, needs quiet companionship, or prefers a predictable routine, I adjust my approach to match what works best for them and for you. You can count on clear communication, reliability, and genuine care. Your dog stays safe, relaxed, and understood. You stay updated and worry-free. Pet care is my full-time profession, so my entire day is structured around giving each pet the attention they deserve. I don’t overbook or cram visits together, I intentionally keep my schedule flexible so I can stay reliable, punctual, and fully present with every animal I care for. Spacing out visits allows me to maintain a calm, stress-free routine and gives me room to handle any unexpected needs that might come up, such as extra cleanup, weather changes, mobility issues, or a pet who needs a little more time and reassurance that day. Your pet never feels rushed, and you never have to worry about me balancing other jobs or squeezing you in. This is what I do, all day, every day. Your pet’s comfort and safety always come first. I care for pets in their own home because that’s where they feel most secure, confident, and relaxed. I follow your routines exactly, feeding times, walks, medications, training cues, preferred routes, and house rules , so everything stays familiar and predictable for your pet. I pay close attention to details like behavior changes, energy levels, appetite, and overall mood, and I communicate anything I notice. I’m extremely reliable, gentle, and respectful of your home, and I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are always handled carefully. My goal is simple: your pet feels safe and understood, and you feel completely confident trusting me in your home.

“Diana has been stopping by to walk and take care of our high energy husky several days a week while we were at work over the past few months. She has been such a wonderful help! She’s responsible, responsive, and so kind! Hopper loves her visits, and we got great pics of their adventures. Hopper will miss her while I’m home for the summer, but we can’t wait to book her again at the start of the school year! They have also helped with our cats when we travel. We trust them with all our pets! We absolutely recommend Diana and Andrew and thank them for their help!”

Emily took great care of our dog while we were away!! The communication and care was amazing! Given that the doggy was not feeling his best, she helped him out and updated us how he was doing! And was creative when we hit a snag with the access to our house! Would recommend her care!
We’ve had such a great experience with our dog walker, Xavier! He’s been walking our two dogs, Koda and Miso, and I honestly couldn’t ask for better care. Both dogs have their own personalities, and he handles each of them so well—making sure they get the right amount of exercise, attention, and love. I always feel at ease knowing Koda and Miso are in good hands. Xavier is reliable, communicative, and clearly cares about the dogs he works with. You can tell he genuinely enjoys what he does, and it shows in how happy and relaxed my pups are after every walk. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring!
Jing was wonderful with Bailey. He was a little nervous today because it’s only a few days in our new apt, so he don’t finish his breakfast. Jing sat with him and hand fed him a couple morsels, helping him to feel comfortable and then he finished the rest on his own. I highly recommend Jing and will definitely use her again!
Jungmin did a wonderful job taking care of my dog, Mia. She walked her with great care and regularly sent pictures and videos, which gave me peace of mind knowing Mia was happy and in good condition. Jungmin was very responsive, kind, and clearly attentive to Mia’s needs. I would absolutely hire her again and highly recommend her to anyone.

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 Little Ferry. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Little Ferry. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 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.
