“My 3-year-old, 60-pound Pit Bull/Shepherd mix is basically 60 pounds of enthusiasm with zero respect for personal space. He’s high-energy, pulls on the leash, and firmly believes every person he meets needs to be greeted with his whole body. This was his first experience with a stranger walking him, and honestly, I was more nervous for Max than I was for my dog! But Max’s experience and comfort around dogs showed immediately. He handled the situation with calm, firm confidence, kept things under control, and the walk was a success. My dog came back happy, exercised, and in one piece—and so did Max. 😂 I’d definitely trust him to walk my four-legged tornado again!”

About: Hi there, I’m Jackie! . I have various experience with dogs as my family and I have always had dogs growing up. I also have fostered service dogs with a service dog organization in college as I took on the responsibility of living/taking care of three dogs (not all at once, I fostered three) in my college apartment, keeping up with their training, exposure, and more. I’m proud to say they are all full time service dogs to their recipients! I will do my absolute best to make you and your dog feel comfortable and happy with my work ethic. Knowledge of your pup is crucial to every stay as I would like to know social levels, fears, likes, dislikes, favorite past times, or they’re a couch potato or active to make their stay great! I’d like to know a dog’s boundaries so a meet and greet would be great so I can interact with them with their parents. I also love cats. They never fail to make me laugh with their personality and find them intriguing as no cat is the same. It is crucial to have a successful meet and greet whether they’re social or a ghost so the cat won’t stress. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I like to incorporate dogs into my routine as I like to be active from going to walks or just having fun depending on the weather. I love a good movie buddy or someone to walk around town with. As updates, I love to send photos of your dogs to your number. I enjoy seeing photos of my dogs when I’m away so I know it’s a relieving feeling seeing your pup happy. I will always do my best to ensure your dog is happy and healthy in my home or yours. I understand the nervousness owners may feel leaving their pets with someone else. I am hoping you are available via text if I need a question answered

About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages since I was very young and am a huge animal lover! I am a nurse who works 3 days a week so I have frequent free time. I do have a 1 year old female golden retriever who is pet friendly. I am a pediatric nurse who works 2-3 days a week and love animals, so I am looking to get back into pet walking and sitting on the side. My schedule is flexible. I enjoy going on walks, especially with a dog by my side. Because I have fostered several dogs, I am comfortable meeting a new dog and getting to know them through walking or playing in your backyard. I am also comfortable with all sizes as I have had both small dogs and XL.

About: Hello 😁 I have experience with dogs of all sizes but have an extra space in my heart for larger breeds. I grew up with 4 cats, so I’m no stranger to them either! All animals in my care receive “I love you’s” when I leave, and are talked to throughout the day. I truly treat them like I would my own. If I get the privilege of an overnight sit, you will always come back to a clean home, guaranteed ✨ I work from home, so I’m always available for longer sits as well as shorter visits and walks. Weekdays and weekends are great, I just like to plan ahead as much as possible. I make sure to honor specific and detailed instructions so that I can provide the same level as care as you do! I want your babies to feel like you never left. I’ll never fill your shoes, but I will surely try 🙂

About: I was raised alongside litters of puppies and my life has revolved around animals ever since. My family consistently had 8-10 dogs in our home, ranging from big dogs like labs or American bulldogs to smaller dogs like French bulldogs or terrier mixes. Since I was in elementary school, I was tasked with feeding, grooming, walking and playing with all of our dogs. As an adult, I've helped my parents out in watching their many dogs (my dad has 12!) when they are out of town and pet-sitting for friends and family. I adopted my own two cats, who I've had since they were kittens, and love them with almost my whole heart - I have two ferrets that take up some space in my heart too. Ferrets are notoriously difficult pets to take care of, so if I can handle them and all their energy & mischief, I think I'm prepared to take care of just about any creature. I have been conscientious, responsible and caring for my own pets and I promise I'll treat yours the same way :) I work 9-5 on a hybrid schedule but, as a manager, I have flexibility in terms of remote work — I can always change my schedule around to accommodate yours! I need advanced notice for overnight bookings, as I commute into the city twice a week. I can always switch my-in office days with enough of a head's up, so please reach out if my current calendar availability doesn't align with yours! We may be able to work something out. Unfortunately, I know the feeling of coming home from a trip and realizing that some little things were unattended to by a friend I'd trusted with my pets: the water fountain was half full, the litter box hadn't been scooped in a few days, their 24/7 bird streaming YouTube video wasn't on (lol). Of course my pets were still fed, but it didn't feel like they were cared for the same way I would have. I promise that won't happen if I am entrusted with your pet. I am very good at noticing and handling those little details, even if you forgot to mention them, because that's what I would want. That said, I am great at following pet-care instructions, and I'll surely feed, walk, play with (and love) your furry friend according to the schedule you set out.

“First time using Rover. I am very pleased with the care provided by Vick for my two Cavachons Kurt and Kyle. She was very detailed orientated regarding their care and provided a nice long walk while we were out all day. A very kind care giver, the boys had a great time with her. Five star performance!!”

About: Hi! I’m Sydney, and I’ve been dog and cat sitting for over 10 years for wonderful families in my community. I recently joined Rover to connect with more pet parents and expand my pet care services. I truly love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether it’s long walks, playing fetch, sticking to feeding routines, or simply keeping them company, I make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so if I board your pet, I’ll be home with them throughout the day, giving them plenty of attention, care, and companionship. I work from home so if I'm boarding your pet I will be with them all day giving them lots of walks and attention throughout the day. I care for pets as if they were my own, always prioritizing their safety, comfort, and routine. In my home, pets receive constant supervision, plenty of attention, and lots of exercise through walks and playtime. I work from home, so I’m able to be with them throughout the day, provide timely meals, potty breaks, and make sure they feel comfortable and settled.

Max took great care of our dog Hudson while we were away. He was super flexible, we booked him only two days before our trip and even added an extra day last minute. Max was reliable, sent updates, and was patient with our senior dog. He’ll definitely be our go-to. Highly recommend.

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 Long Branch. 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 , 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 Long Branch 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 , 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 .

  • 83% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 87% 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 .

walkers 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 walker.
