“We LOVE Maryann. Whenever we are away we know our dog Isabella is in GREAT hands. She treats our dog like she’s her own, and really gives her so much love and attention. We will always use Maryann to walk/watch our dog.”
“This was my first time using Rover or any dog walking service, let alone have anyone aside from myself, dad, or brother take care of my pup. And I have ZERO regrets. My dad was supposed to stay with my dog for the long weekend I was away, but last minute he couldn’t and I needed a plan B. I came to Rover to see if I could find a solution and I did- Peter! My pup is very lovable but also not easy, and many are too scared or just don’t want to deal with him. Because of that, I wanted to do a meet and greet first, which Peter happily agreed to. After just one visit, I knew that not only could he handle my dog and he would be well-taken care of, but knew they both were about to become buds. I was able to go away and not have any worries, especially since Peter gave very thorough recaps of his visits and pictures. Needless to say, my heart and mind were put at ease and I can’t think him enough for that. I will definitely be utilizing his services in the future and I know Thor will not mind at all.”
“Jennifer is great and I highly recommend booking her! She walked our senior pup a few times and was always reliable and on time. She sent great updates with the awesome pictures of Troy, and it was clear she cared about his well-being. Thank you Jennifer!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a young girl. My family always had pets. As an owner of my own pets, I understand the love and attention they need. I offer the flexibility and loving space needed to cater to any needs of your family pet. I would love them like they’re my own. I was a nurse before staying home with my kids, who are now in school full time. I’d be home all day with your fur baby so they’d have all my attention for play, cuddles, & walks. I have a fenced in back yard if your fur baby likes to play outside, or plenty of room inside my house to play. My family has an almost 3 year old goldendoodle who is the sweetest pup. She would enjoy having friends to play with.
“Jinghong was a life saver! We had a last minute request and she worked with us to make it work and even made time for a meet and greet!! She gave multiple updates and made us feel comfortable trusting her with our pup. Cannot recommend enough!!”
About: As someone who has had many fur babies, I understand how hard it can be to leave them! My goal is to make that experience less stressful and ensure that you are stress free while away. I have had extensive experience caring for animals ranging from dogs and cats to reptiles, amphibians, fish, guinea pigs, mice, rats and hamsters. I currently have a cat and guinea pigs but have had all of the prior listed animals at one point or another. I am comfortable doing care for special needs animals and don’t mind the extra time that they need. I am available on short notice and during some odd hours due to grad school. I am a current grad student so I have flexible timing as well as last minute availability. I am available most weekdays after 3pm and anytime on the weekends. Given my experience with many pets, I know how to safely handle many species as well as care for cats and dogs. I am also trained in animal cpr and am comfortable dealing with any special needs an animal has as well as any emergencies that may arise.
“Ruth has been walking both of my dogs for the last couple of weeks and she’s been such a help to me and my family! She’s very punctual, has excellent communication, and is super reliable. Highly recommend!”
“Alison was amazing, hired her last minute as my sitter for our honeymoon cancelled two days before. We didn’t have a chance to do a meet & greet but was communicative throughout. My boy was very happy !!”
About: Hi! I'm a big dog lover who enjoys being active, spending time outdoors, and going on walks. I've been caring for dogs for over 12 years and have dog-sat for friends and family countless times over the years. I've cared for puppies as young as 3 months old and senior dogs, including my own 18-year-old dog. I'm also a proud aunt to two dogs! My best friend is a veterinarian, so I've picked up a lot of knowledge about dog care and behavior over the years as well. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. ❤️🐾 I have a hybrid work schedule so I’ll be able to fit in your pup needs through out the day when working from home!

I make sure collars and harnesses are triple checked before walks, keep owners up to date with photos and give your dog my full attention during playtime, walks and care. My goal is to make sure your pup feel just as comfortable, happy and loved while you’re away!🐶
“Vivian put our mind at ease while we trusted her care with our dog. She was patient and supportive, while providing such detailed daily updates of our furry friend. Highly recommended for her services!”
“Thomas walking our dog allowed us to enjoy our vacation without worry. Our dog was comfortable and happy with him from the first meeting which is a testament to how good Thomas is with dogs. Every walk was right on time. We would recommend him without hesitation. I am very grateful that we found someone that we can trust with our furry family member.”
“Kara is amazing! She’s punctual and a great commuter and so good to our boy Hulk! She was gentle with him after recovering from his neuter and always makes sure he has water before she leaves. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for 9 years, starting with my own dog and then helping care for pets in my family. Over the years, I’ve really grown to love spending time with dogs, whether we’re playing, hanging out, or giving them plenty of love and attention. At my home, dogs have a safe, big, green backyard with plenty of room to run and play, plus a large living area for indoor fun, relaxing, and belly rubs on those rainy days. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy, comfortable, and right at home! I can take care of dogs most days, as I am usually at home taking care of my own dog. I am usually always available. My home offers up a big backyard for your dogs to run around and play in. The living room is also spacious, so dogs can play around in their if it gets too hot out.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and I currently have a fur baby now! She’s super friendly and lovable and loves all animals! She means the world to me and I love taking her outside for walks in to get fresh air. I can’t wait to meet and care for your fur baby! I do have a full-time job but morning walks and feeding are in routine for the morning, afternoon, and nighttime as well. My dog loves to play after I get home from work so that is something they can do together as well. Any daily care or routine can be worked out! I do not have a fenced in yard, but I can take your dog on multiple walks throughout the day. I also have a dog who can keep your animal company and I also have a cage if you would like them to be crated if needed.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lyndhurst
I cannot recommend Victoria enough! I’ve had my dog Nala for six years, and this was actually the first time I’ve ever gone away and left her in someone else’s care without having a family member or someone I personally know stay with her. I’ve always been extremely nervous about leaving her because Nala can be very reactive and aggressive toward other dogs after being bitten a few years ago, so I don’t trust just anyone with her. From the very beginning, Victoria was so understanding of Nala’s needs and completely respectful of the fact that she can be difficult around other dogs. She handled everything so calmly and confidently, and I felt like Nala was in really good hands. What meant the most to me was that Victoria went above and beyond what I expected. She didn’t just come in, take Nala for a walk, and leave. She spent extra time with her inside, hung out with her, made sure she was comfortable, and gave her the attention and companionship she needed while we were away. You could genuinely tell that she cared about Nala and wasn’t just there to do a job. As someone who has always had a hard time trusting other people with my dog, Victoria gave me something I honestly didn’t think I’d have on vacation: peace of mind. I was able to enjoy my trip without constantly worrying about how Nala was doing, and that meant so much to me. I am so grateful we found Victoria, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, responsible, and genuinely great with dogs. I will absolutely be using her again! Nala loved having her, and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of her. ❤️🐾
Thomas walking our dog allowed us to enjoy our vacation without worry. Our dog was comfortable and happy with him from the first meeting which is a testament to how good Thomas is with dogs. Every walk was right on time. We would recommend him without hesitation. I am very grateful that we found someone that we can trust with our furry family member.
Cynthia has been absolutely wonderful with my stubborn puppy, who took to her from day one. She truly is a dog whisperer! She is patient, caring, and treats my dog as if he were her own. It’s clear how much she loves and cares for my dog, and that gives me complete peace of mind. I highly recommend Cynthia to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and dedicated dog walker. The love, attention, and care she provides are truly exceptional.
Natalia was absolutely wonderful with Vali! She was incredibly flexible with scheduling, which made the whole process so easy for me. She took amazing care of him, made sure he got plenty of walks, and kept me updated the entire time with the sweetest photos and messages. It gave me total peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. You can really tell Natalia genuinely loves dogs and treats them like her own. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter, and I will definitely be booking with her again!
Krista has been an absolutely amazing dog walker! She is reliable, communicative, and clearly has a true love for animals. I always feel at ease knowing my dog is in such caring and capable hands. She goes above and beyond with updates, photos, and thoughtful attention to my dog’s needs and personality. My pup gets so excited every time she comes by, which says everything. I would highly recommend Krista to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and professional dog walker!
Jack was great with Loki and Luna! This was our first time working together and everything went smoothly. He communicated well, sent photo updates, followed instructions, and the dogs looked happy after both walks. I really appreciated the professionalism and care. Would definitely book again — thank you

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

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.
