About: I go the extra mile for the dogs in my care. I have over 12 years experience fostering dogs with special medical needs so giving medications or IV fluids is not an issue. I only feed holistic food and treats and purchase toys made in the USA. I will treat your pets like they were my own. I love to exercise and run so if your dog is active, I am the sitter for you. My own pets are very friendly to other dogs I can separate your dogs from my own. My cats and caged pets are kept away from the dogs so interaction is not an issue if your dog does not like them. I have had dogs and cats for over 40 years and have excellent references from adopters and current clients.

“Ruth is simply the best! Riley is so happy, and honestly, we couldn't be happier too. I can't recommend Ruth enough to anyone looking for a loving and reliable place to leave their dog. She’s fantastic!”

About: I am new to pet sitting but I have had 3 dogs of my own over the past 25 years. I love all dogs but I have experience with small senior dogs (I owned 2 min pins and 1 chihuahua all of which have passed). I have experience with senior care including giving medications, and the patience required with caring for a senior dog (all of my dogs were blind, deaf, and 2 had dementia prior to passing). I would love to help you care for your pet!! I am currently working full time on a rotating schedule so I have different days off during the week & every other weekend off. I am willing to help anyone, and those who don’t have a Monday- Friday. I no longer have pets in my home and will keep your pet on a leash and harness since I live in a condo. There is alot of open space to walk in my complex and vets park is directly across the street. I also have a pet stroller and blankets if needed

About: I've been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember. I've had my own dog since I was six years old, and over the years I've cared for more than five dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. From walks and playtime to feeding, bathing, and plenty of cuddles, I genuinely love every part of caring for them. I treat every dog like they're my own and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while they're with me. I absolutely adore dogs, and I can't wait to meet your babt! I'm currently a full-time college student, so my schedule is designed to fit around classes. I'm available on weekdays after 3:00 PM and have open availability on weekends. I'll always communicate my availability clearly and make sure your pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve! I've cared for my own dog since I was six years old, so looking after dogs has always been part of my daily life. I know how important it is to keep them on a consistent routine, so I make sure they're fed on time, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise, and, of course, lots of love and attention. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and safe. When I'm caring for a dog in a client's home, I treat them just like I treat my own dog by following their routine closely, keeping them happy and comfortable, and making sure they get the care they deserve while you're away.

About: I have taken care of cats my whole life and had a beautiful Black Lab who lived to 13 years old. My pets have all needed senior care, including special diets, medication, and issues with waste elimination as they got older. I will take good care of your fur babies! I am a school teacher, home in the late afternoon. I am off over the summer so I can house sit or take care of your pets any time over the summer. I will care for pets in your home. I have my own pets and can not house any other animal here. However, I am willing to come to your home, walk your pets, and feed them, play with them, take your dog to the park, or house sit. Let me know what you need!

“I had such a great experience with Adriana while I was away on my trip! She made the whole process so easy and stress-free. She kept me updated and sent pictures, which I really appreciated because it was nice being able to see my dogs and know they were doing well. She took them for walks, made sure they were fed, and gave them the care and attention they needed while I was gone. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring to look after their fur babies! ❤️🐾”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the personal, hands-on experience I have with a wide range of animals and my genuine passion for their well-being. I currently have two dogs of my own—one large and one small—so I understand how different each pet’s personality and needs can be. I’ve also owned and cared for many other animals over the years, including birds, reptiles, and small pets, giving me the confidence and knowledge to handle all kinds of situations. Unlike sitters who see this as just a side job, I treat every pet like family, giving them the same love, attention, and care I give my own. I’m reliable, patient, and always go the extra mile to make sure both pets and owners feel comfortable and supported. Balancing school and a job has taught me the importance of time management and responsibility—skills that I bring into my pet care routine every day. I make sure to plan my schedule carefully so I can give each pet the time, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime, I prioritize pet care because it’s something I genuinely love and am passionate about. Caring for animals is more than just a side job for me—it’s a rewarding part of my daily life, and I always make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well-cared for, no matter how busy my schedule may be. What sets me apart from other sitters is the personal experience and deep understanding I bring to every pet I care for. I don’t just watch animals—I live with them every day. With two dogs of my own (one big, one small) and years of hands-on experience owning a variety of pets including cats, reptiles, birds, and small animals, I know how to handle all kinds of personalities, routines, and special needs. I treat every pet like family, giving them the same love, attention, and care I give my own. I also keep open, honest communication with owners, sending regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My passion, reliability, and experience make me more than just a sitter—I’m someone you and your pets can truly trust.

About: Throughout my life I’ve lived with and cared for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, fishes, and French Hens. Show me what your pet needs and I’ll be sure to keep them clean, happy and well-fed :))) I work part time, so I have open availability on a timely notice. With active and clear communication, I can assure a smooth process and time commitment. My apartment has a balcony and stair/room barricades, so such restraints would be easy to manage. However, if your dog needs walking, I would prefer to be provided a leash and collar for your furry friend :)

About: First and foremost, I love our furry little friends! I have a beautiful 4.5 year old Bluetick Coonhound/German Shepard mix named Scarlet & she is the love of my life. We love relaxing & snuggling together, walking, running, playing with a soccer ball & of course she loves being chased around with her toy. She is well trained unless she’s being her stubborn hound self! I also grew up with 3 cats and a Beagle/Chihuahua mix, which was my first dog at 17. Even at that age I would take her on walks in the park or neighborhood, plays games with her & give her all the love she wanted. She was a feisty one with medicating but she trusted me the most in doing it. I’ve worked at an animal clinic for over 8 years. I am well trained with medicating pets, senior pets & nervous/anxious pets. Even though my days during the week are filled with meeting new dogs/cats or seeing my favorite patients, there’s always room for more love to give! I work full time during the week at the animal hospital (Monday-Thursday) but I am available on weekends for those that work or have plans :) I make sure the pet’s collar/leash are well secured on them so there is no chance for them to get loose while on a walk. I will make sure all gates are closed. As part of being a vet tech I am trained in trimming nails & expressing anal glands, as well as knowing if there is an issue that needs to be addressed by a doctor. If your pet has any specific medical, food or behavioral needs I am very experienced to assist! :)

I make sure to prioritize the well-being of my furry friends by incorporating feeding, grooming, exercise, and playtime into my daily schedule.

About: I’ve been a pet owner since 1985 and I’ve fostered over 70 cats and dogs over the past 20 years through an Animal Rescue Project that I continue to volunteer for. My home is designed for pets. No rugs and comfy furniture covered with pet hair. In my Florida home, I do not have a fenced in yard but I have a lovely dog friendly community to take long walks in. I specialize in seniors, special needs pets or pets on a medicine schedule. I love puppies too. Cats are also welcome in my home. Your dog or cat will be treated just like family. I’d also be happy to care for your pet in your home. I am a snow bird who spends my winters in South East Florida and Summers in my home state of New Jersey. I’m retired so your pets routine will be my priority. I have a fenced in yard and enjoy walking in the near by Abbott Marshlands. My home is pet friendly. My community is dog friendly with plenty of interesting walking opportunities. I am happy to sit for your pet in your home as well. My New Jersey home has a fenced in yard and a house that is designed to accommodate canine and feline guests.

About: I’ve had a lifelong love for dogs, caring for others and many years of hands-on experience caring for my own. My beloved Yorkshire Terrier was part of my family for 17 wonderful years. She was truly my baby, and caring for her throughout every stage of life—from playful puppy days to her senior years—taught me patience, attentiveness, and how deeply our pets rely on us. While I’m not quite ready to welcome another dog of my own just yet, I would love the opportunity to share my time and affection with your pup. I understand that dogs are family, and I will treat yours with the same love, care, and attention I gave my own. I’m a caring, dependable, and responsible person who will make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while just for a day or if you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I’m a stay-at-home mom, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and plenty of time during the day to give dogs the attention, care, and companionship they need. Because I’m home most of the time, I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of affection. Your dog’s safety and comfort are very important to me. I provide a loving, and secure environment where your pet will be treated like family. I’m happy to take dogs on walks and make sure they get the exercise and attention they need. I can also crate your dog while not home if that is part of their normal routine and something that makes them feel comfortable. I will always follow your instructions carefully so your dog can stay on their usual schedule and feel as relaxed as possible while in my care.

I have had Amia as a dog walker for a year now regularly, twice a week. She is incredibly caring, sweet, and reliable. My dog Mimi loves her and is excited to see her each time. She is also very thorough, asks great questions and when my dog was a puppy she’d clean up her messes without even being asked. She’s a true gem!!!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Mercerville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Mercerville is $19 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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 November 2026, there are 5,720 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Mercerville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Mercerville. 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 a map of the walking route, 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 Mercerville 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 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 Mercerville. On Rover:

  • 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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 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.
