“Stella loved going for walks with Mike and always came back worn out lol which is exactly what I wanted. Mike was punctual, kind, and always treated Stella with care. Would 100% recommend him.”
“I could not recommend Carly enough! My dog had surgery and I was incredibly anxious to leave him with anyone, but I had to look around on Rover as he had to be supervised post-surgery while I went to work. Right from meeting her, both my dog and I loved her! She is so caring, accommodating, and communicative. She sent me updates and photos throughout the day. I honestly can’t wait to book her again!”
About: I’m just starting out on Rover, but I’ve grown up with dogs and been around them my whole life. I work remotely most days, so I am flexible to adjust my schedule to make sure your pet is well taken care of. The sillier and goofier your dog, the better! Whether your pet likes to go for long walks and play fetch or lounge around the house, you can be sure they will be in good hands while you’re away. I work a full-time job and am remote at least 3 days a week, so I am flexible to adjust my schedule to meet your dog’s needs. On the weekends I am looking for any excuse to be outside, so your pets will get plenty of time in the sun! My partner and I live in a house, with no other pets or children. Your pet will be my #1 priority! We have an open yard with plenty of shaded space, and some nice parks nearby. There is a neighbor that lives below us, so any dogs that bark very frequently may not be a great fit for us
“We greatly appreciate Claire for taking such good care of our dog while we were away on vacation. Claire immediately had good rapport with our dog (who is a very good judge of character) and maintained good communication with us while we were away. We felt at ease knowing our beloved dog was in Claire’s capable hands. We highly recommend Claire for all your pet care needs.”
“From the moment we met her, I knew Kristen would be a perfect fit to walk our sweet fur-baby, Hamilton. Given that Hamilton is still a four-month old puppy, my husband & I weren’t willing to leave him in the care of just anyone. Right from the get-go, Kristen was sweet, playful, & affectionate with our sweet boy. Kristen was always immediately responsive to my many questions as a first-time Rover user & left detailed notes/pictures about her walks with Hamilton. I would highly recommend Kristen to anyone & everyone! Your dog will love her!!! ~Cynthia & Jay”
“Marilyn was amazing walking my dog Maverick. She was available at a last minute notice and was very responsive throughout his walk from picking him up to saying goodbye with a summary of how it went. Definitely would recommend”

About: Hi! My name is Jackie and I have been caring for dogs and cats for almost 40 years! I am a responsible animal lover, with a special place in my heart for senior dogs.

It is important for me to get to know your pet(s) in advance of providing any service(s).

I have a 24-hour CANCELLATION policy for any scheduled services . Any cancellations made less than 24 hours before the scheduled service will incur a fee equal to 50% of the total cost of the cancelled service(s).

There are no children present, so your pet will get my full attention. I have experience caring for senior dogs.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Morris Plains
Erin walked our 2 year old pit/boxer mix, Luna, for 5 days and I gotta say, the only problem we have, our pup might love her more than us now! As someone who has a difficult time leaving my dog, it was as easy as it could have been knowing that she was in good hands with Erin. From daily pics to the updates on how our pup was, Erin made us feel like Luna was right there with us. We with out a doubt will be booking Erin again in the future!
Natalia is a terrific dog walker, intuitive, patient and enthusiastic. My dog, Cessie, is full of energy and can get distracted by bunnies, squirrels, any little so fter training, she has some modifications. Natalia easily adapted to her routine and Cessie came home happy and despite a long walk, lively and refreshed. I would definitely recommend her as a great dog walker./-

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Morris Plains on Rover is $25.53 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 26,385 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Morris Plains. 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 Morris Plains. 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 Morris Plains.

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 Morris Plains. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
