About: Hi! I’m Hannah, your biggest “animal lover”! I’m a full-time student who works two part-time jobs, one at a doggy daycare that I love every second of! I have hands-on experience supervising dogs of all sizes and energy levels, ensuring they stay safe, happy, and well cared for. With my experience, I’m comfortable with a wide range of personalities and needs. Your baby will be treated like my own — spoiled with attention, responsibly cared for, and given lots of love! 🐾 My availability is the following: • Weekdays — 12 PM-2 PM and all day after 5 PM • Tues/Weds — ONLY 12 PM-2 PM • Fri/ Sat — After 2 PM • Sun — After 7 PM • House-sitting and boarding is available at all times (contact me for requested hours/ needs) My work schedules may fluctuate, so please consider booking and contacting me ahead of time! Thank you for understanding :) Walks, playtime, you name it! You and your pups’ well-being is my top priority. I have a friendly pomeranian, Kiwi, at home who has resided with 14+ foster dogs in the past. He, and his pals, are taken on walks throughout the day when needed and are constantly attended to and played with at home. My home has an open yard, so it is essential I keep your pup leashed up for mini potty breaks to prevent any incidents :) I own a crate if needed, extra bedding, and plenty of toys and snacks to keep your puppy happy! 🐶
“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”
“Elizabeth is a fantastic dog walker! She is very communicative and provides lot of pictures and a full report of her time with my dogs. I trust her with my pups and will continue to use her 🥰”
“Mike walks Cali on a regular basis. Cali loves going on walks with Mike and is happy to see him. This particular walk was requested last minute. Mike was flexible and said he would help right away. He even asked if Cali needed to eat as well. It was a huge help and he is a fantastic dog walker!”
“Alondra was a huge help in getting Phoebe's daily walks in! Always right on time and sent pictures and details. She provided us peace of mind and we'd be happy for her to watch Phoebe in the future!”
About: Hi! My name is Hannah, and I absolutely love animals of all kinds. I currently have 4 cats, 1 dog, and a horse, so caring for animals is a huge part of my everyday life! I have experience with pets of all personalities — from sassy calicos with lots of attitude to nervous, anxious furry friends who need extra patience and love. I understand that every pet is unique, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet loves lots of playtime or prefers a calm and gentle approach, I’m happy to accommodate their needs. I’m currently available for drop-in visits and dog walks, and I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! :) I have a very flexible schedule. I am available Monday through Friday at any time. I can definitely do mid day drop ins! I am available on weekends as well! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for cats, dogs, and horses every day. I’m patient, attentive, and understand that every pet has their own personality and needs — whether they’re playful, shy, anxious, or full of attitude!
“It was great to have someone walk them that wasn't afraid of them and get them some good exercise in with the nice weather they was so happy coming back in and should sleep great tonight and will definitely book again.”

“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.”
About: I’ve spent the last 6 years caring for dogs and cats for families in my neighborhood, including puppies, high‑energy dogs, and seniors who need a gentler pace. I regularly do dog walking, drop‑in visits, and house sitting, and I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, medications, walks, and playtime. I treat every animal like my own, send lots of photo updates, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and relaxed while their people are away. I’m a college student, so my availability is best during school breaks and holidays. When I’m home in New Jersey, I’m generally free on both weekdays and weekends, and I’m happy to work around your travel plans. I keep my calendar up to date and respond quickly so we can find times that fit your schedule. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to the routines you already have in place—feeding schedule, walk times, and house rules. I always double‑check doors, gates, and leashes, and I watch for any changes in behavior or appetite that might signal a problem. I’m respectful of your home, keep things tidy, and send clear updates and photos so you always know how your pets are doing.
“Briana has been an absolute lifesaver! I booked her on very short notice when a work trip came up unexpectedly, and she was incredibly accommodating and easy to coordinate with. My dog, Phoebe, is quite shy and reactive, which can be challenging for anyone new, but Briana handled her with so much patience, care, and understanding. Knowing Phoebe was in such capable and reliable hands gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I will definitely be using Briana again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker!”
“Amanda walked my dog today for the first time. She sent me some great photos which showed me that my dog looked relaxed and really enjoyed her walk. I'm already planning on using Amanda again.”
“Jillian was fantastic with my dog who doesn't always warm to strangers. She's be so happy to see her every day. Jillian was very punctual and communicative. She sent detailed updates every day. I highly recommend her!”
“Jonathan was wonderful. Our pups loved their walks and I really appreciated his picture updates. They went on 5 different walks over the five days and I really appreciated they had the variety. Thank you!”

Erin is super professional, kind, responsive, and went out of her way to accommodate a walk request. She asked really important questions and is a fellow dog owner herself. My dog absolutely loved her and I trust her implicitly. I highly recommend Erin for all your pet care needs!
Scott did a fabulous job walking Cessie. He sussed out the situation quickly, understanding that she might be impulsive, and handled her very well. I found him to be entirely reliable, always arriving exactly when he said he would and keeping me informed throughout the walk. I strongly recommend him as an excellent dog walker.
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./-

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.

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:
- 87% 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.
