“John has been great with our dog! He takes her for long walks and keeps us updated. He even brought a towel for her on a rainy day which was thoughtful. We will definitely continue to work with him.”
About: Caring for pets is my passion. I'm a veterinary assistant with experience in general practice, emergency/critical care, and medical oncology. I have also volunteered as a puppy sitter for Guide Dogs for the Blind, an organization dedicated to helping the visually impaired community. Growing up, I always helped family, friends, and neighbors care for their pets, and I began my professional career in veterinary medicine at 19 years old. My beloved dog Dovey crossed the rainbow bridge recently. I would love to offer pet sitting/dog walking services to help you, and to help heal my heart. I am currently available for pet sitting service in your home, and dog walking service. I am currently looking for full time employment. Availability is subject to change when I begin working full time. My priority is making your pet feel safe and comfortable. I am well versed in animal behavior and reading their body language. I always approach pets in a calm, gentle manner.
“Kathy was amazing and helped us tremendously when we were in a jam, and needed our dog walked. Her communication was great every step of the way. We will be using her again and highly recommend her!”
About: Hi! I'm Nicole and I am a dancer/choreographer/dance teacher/mom currently living in Collingswood. With the little time that I have off I thought this would be the perfect way to make a little extra cash AND to get to hang out with some animals! I have been dog/cat sitting since high school and always treat every animal as if it's my own. I never had a pet growing up (I was one of 4 kids so there was no time or space for a dog) but have always been a huge pet lover! I currently have a 13 year old cat named Pistachio who I love more than anything. I would love to get the chance to hang out with your furry friend! I am the main person who takes care of my cat. I make sure she has water, food, clean her litter box, and okay with her. I have free time often and I love going for walks! I prefer not to have pets in my home so I like going to others homes to sit their animals. I treat the home and the pet as if they were my own.
“He is great my dog always enjoys when he stops over to take her out. I don’t need regular walks but when I know I’m gonna need a random walk he is always able to take her out.”
About: Hi! I’m Kaylin, a dog lover with over two years of professional experience as a dog bather. I’ve worked with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities—from energetic puppies who can’t sit still to sweet senior dogs who just want a little extra patience and love. Working in a grooming salon taught me how to safely handle dogs, recognize when they’re feeling nervous, and help them feel comfortable and cared for. One of my favorite parts of the job was getting to know each dog’s unique personality (and handing out lots of belly rubs and compliments along the way!). Whether your pup needs a fun walk, someone to keep them company while you’re away, or plenty of playtime and cuddles, I’m here to make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved. I know our pets are family, and I’ll care for yours with the same attention and kindness I’d want for my own baby. i also would bathe cats sometimes! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I’m able to plan my schedule around walks, drop-ins, and visits to make sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I’m used to being around animals every day from my experience as a professional dog bather, so caring for pets feels like a normal and rewarding part of my routine. I make sure to give each pet personalized attention, follow their usual schedule, and keep them comfortable while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow any instructions provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any special preferences their pet may have. I know that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality and make sure they feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away. I’ll treat your home with respect, keep things clean, and provide plenty of attention, patience, and care. My two years of experience as a professional dog bather has helped me become comfortable handling dogs with different temperaments and needs, and I bring that same level of care and responsibility to every pet I look after.
“Melissa took such great, great care of my dogs while I was away. They loved her!! She was so communicative and spent time playing with them too which was an added bonus and assured me that my furry kids were in good hands. She even looked after my 'underage' one who was too young to go on walks. I couldn't have left my pups in better hands.”
About: Passionate about pets, I treat them like my babies. I provide care, playful and loving environment for your furry friends. From cozy boarding to attentive daycare, my mission is to ensure your pet feels right at home while you are away. I have a very flexible work from home schedule (at home full time) that allows me to have a set times for nap, potty, and play time. In the event you fit baby needs more care I'm able to adjust my schedule to ensure their needs are met. I have a fenced yard and 2 friendly small dogs to keep your baby company. I can easily crate dog if needed. They will have plenty of space and toys to play with
“We had a great experience with Robbie caring for Chloe and Maisie. He was kind, reliable, communicative, and very attentive to both girls. His updates throughout the week were always thoughtful and reassuring, and we loved the photos he sent! Our puppy is very nervous with new people and even more nervous outside on a leash. Robbie didn’t seem worried when we told him this, and we now know why. We were genuinely impressed by how comfortable Maisie became with him. He was calm, patient, and encouraging, and we saw noticeable progress in her confidence and willingness to walk in the neighborhood over the course of the week. It really says a lot about him that she trusted him so quickly. Robbie was also respectful of our home and handled an unexpected mess with professionalism and kindness. He clearly cares about the dogs he works with, and it shows. We felt completely comfortable having him care for our girls, and seeing how excited and comfortable both dogs are with him says everything. We can’t wait to have him back to visit them again!”
“Anthony was great with our dog. Bentley warmed up to him after only 1 meet and greet. He was understanding and aware of any quirks or things to look out for with Bentley!”
About: Volunteered at dog day care/ grooming center for 6 months, I’ve dog sat for family friends when they went away on trips. I have 2 dogs one a bully mix the other a pincher mix From the moment I wake up I’m greeted by my two dogs Coco and Luna who I have to make sure are fed and clean When at home I try to play with my dogs a ton or teach them new tricks which hasn’t worked yet but I’m hopeful :)
About: Ive taken care of my fur family and I am often the go to person when my family and friends have questions about their dogs. I like researching, reading and learning about pet care and training. My availability is during the early morning and day as my other job is pretty flexible I am usually at the gym in the early morning and a bit of work then I'm set so go the walks with the fur babies. fur babies are the priority and keeping them safe from other dogs and potential dangers like cars and bicycles. They will get a nice cardio session.
About: Current dog owner & grew up with dogs my whole life! I use Rover myself, and there is nothing more important to me than caring for animals. I am available anytime any day! I have a pet of my own so just a day’s notice helps (not a deal breaker though). Open to walking, pop in visits, and house sitting. I cannot have any dogs at my house, unfortunately. I will not bring her to your house either, so it will not be in issue. (She is always in good hands though!) She’s our little rescue princess 🐾. I will send you updates and pictures because I always want you to know your dog is safe, healthy, and happy 😊.
About: I’m already pet sit through another site and have decided to expand my services to Rover! I grew up surrounded by all kinds of animals. Whether it was dogs, cats, or other animals, having pets around has always been a big part of my life. I have been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends since elementary school. I’ve always had a special connection with animals, even wild ones! My experience spans beyond just cats and dogs; I’ve cared for reptiles, bunnies, frogs, fish, and even farm animals. I pride myself on being clean, respectful, and attentive to the needs of the pets I care for. I enjoy getting to know each animal and learning to care for them in the best suitable way.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets and animals since I was a little kid. Over the course of my life I have always had an animal by my side! Whether that be a dog, cat, fish, reptiles or even animals like hamsters and rabbits every single one them have been given the love and attention needed! Recently I had to care for my elderly dog with her medication and mobility issues. I have also been pet sitting for my families who are in need of assistance with special needs animals. I am available 7 days a week anytime during the day. I am also available nights and weekends as well. So if you need to go out of town for an overnight I have plenty experience in house sitting as well. I always make sure that they have a proper sleep schedule and also make sure their day is full of activities and excitement so they don’t miss a beat when they are back in the arms of their wonderful owner.
“Amy has been a blessing. Our Santi has anxiety and generally takes quite a while to warm up to people. Finding a walker/sitter has been a challenge. When Amy came for a meet and greet Santi barked only a couple times before deciding Amy is her new BFF! I was worried she might change her attitude when Amy came to walk her. Amazingly, so far it's been great! Amy is a dog whisperer. I feel completely at ease know Amy will be staying with Santi when I travel for business. Thank you so much, Amy! We appreciate you tremendously.”
About: After moving to the city away from my pets, I crave spending time with animals again. I have been caring for dogs and cats my entire life and would love nothing more than to love on my neighbors pets as well! In college, I fostered cats, kittens, and everything in between. I would be most available during weeknight evenings, but can occasionally work from home to accommodate schedules. I am also typically available on the weekends with enough notice. I am respectful of others’ space as if it was my own. I prefer for animals to remain in their environment so they feel as comfortable as possible.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Merchantville is $20

Emily was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Archie and Frankie while I was away, and I had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about them as if they were her own. Archie loved his walks, and Frankie was happy and well cared for when I got home. I really appreciated the updates and photos, too. I would highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring pet sitter, and I’ll definitely be booking with her again. Thank you so much, Emily!
Brijana was an absolute rock star with our pets. With twice-a-day visits, Brijana walked, fed, played with, and – most importantly – cared for our girls. She was attentive to their needs and keep us updated all throughout. We are so happy to have trusted both our pup and cat with Brijana. We will absolutely call on her services again - and you should too!
Anthony is awesome! We booked him for several one-hour walks with our dog, Margo. He was always prompt, walked her the entire time, and takes seemingly professional-level glamour shots of her each day (literally I've never seen better pics of my pooch). He is super friendly and was so kind when he visited for an initial meet and greet. We'd love to use him again!
Wow talk about going beyond the call of duty! I recently moved and my pup is not taking it to well and was having a lot of separation anxiety when I left for work. I booked Artesha as a last minute cry for help and she accepted and walked him within 20 minutes of my request! Truly amazing !
Laura has been a wonderful help walking Auggie at lunch! She’s super communicative and reliable, which has provided peace of mind while we’re at work! Auggie is a rambunctious teenager and Laura makes sure he is taken care of when we’re away!! Highly recommend!
Sophia was great with my dog. He loves being out and gathering smells (he’s a hound). She took him on a long walk to his favorite smelling spots and wore him out which was great since I had to leave him home alone for an extended period that day. I highly recommend her and will use her again.

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 Merchantville. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Merchantville.

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 Merchantville. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 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.
