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.
“Alexis went above and beyond for our new corgi flora. She came to our house 2 times to meet her before she started walking her just so flora can warm up to her. She’s very communicative and trustworthy with our pup.”
“Our dog loves his walks with John! He is attentive, flexible, caring and trustworthy with our pup. So glad to have found someone close to home that has been able to be there when we can’t.”
“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: I’ve taken care of dogs of various sizes. I like to have play time with animals as frequent as possible. All animals deserve love and attention. I work full time Monday to Thursday. So my weekends are ready for play time with your pet. I like to stay active so taking your pet out to enjoy nature will be a blast. If I’m not in the gym on my spare time then I’m definitely cuddled up with a puppy. I have puppy friends for your pet to have a play date outdoors. I care for pets at my clients home because I’m willing to make the commute.
“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: 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.

From cozy boarding to attentive daycare, my mission is to ensure your pet feels right at home while you are away.

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.
“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.”
“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: I have lived with dogs and cats my entire life. I watched my first dog give birth and my sisters and I helped my mom take care of the puppies. Washing and brushing them, helping to train them, taking them on walks to the parks. Every dog that I had and watched was loved for unconditionally. I don't treat any dog different from another. I want the dogs to feel at home and feel like they will be loved just as their owners love them. If there are special things an owner wants me to do with their dog, it will get done. I ask that your dog be trained to follow simple commands (sit, stay, come, etc) , be house trained (no going inside, no jumping on furniture, hovering over food, etc), no whining, barking or tearing things up when left in a separate room &/or alone in home, leash trained and also please be sure to have your pet properly socialized (this helps to keep me, your pet and anyone or any animal around safe.) If you agree to the terms above and I have an experience with your pet that says otherwise, you will be charged an extra fee for clean up, noise ordinance, and inconvenience on my part. I understand that animals have accidents, can have anxiety in new settings, and many things are unpredictable, and whats reasonable can be worked out; but I do expect animals that I sit to be trained and properly socialized. I also expect the owner to communicate on any possible issues that could arise regarding your pet. As anything that isn't communicated will be seen as an inconvenience for me. Please communicate with me, I'm very understanding😊 I care about the experience that your pet and I have together. So to get the best experience we have to work together ☺ I am currently a stay at home mom. I feed and walk your pets on the same schedule as my own (2 times a day, 2-3 walks a day). Unless otherwise stated by owner that your pet is on a strict schedule. I care for your pets by doing my best to stick with the schedule that you have them on. I don’t have a fenced in yard so when we're outside, I monitor them closely and be sure to keep them on a leash. I make sure they are well fed, and if they aren't eating, I have certain things I do that usually help with that. I make sure they are well hydrated. Your pets will be safe in my care and will have a great time!
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
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Merchantville
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 !
We've used Bri multiple times and couldn’t be happier. Our pup, Nakita, looks forward to her visits. You can instantly tell she has a genuine love for animals; she treats Nakita like her own. She's incredibly reliable, always on time, and sends the best photo updates— Nakita mid-leap with pure joy, which makes my day. She's super flexible with our crazy schedule! Highly recommend her for anyone!
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.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Merchantville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Merchantville on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 9,599 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Merchantville. 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 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.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 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.
