About: I have 4 years experience dog sitting in South Jersey! I have experience working as a kennel attendant at a dog boarding facility and now work with farm animals on the Rutgers Farm! I have, on multiple occasions, house sat as well for far away jobs. I have 6 years of fostering experience. This includes cats, dogs, ferrets, tarantulas, and hamsters. I spend lots of time shadowing and interning in veterinary settings to gain experience prior to veterinary school. I juggle Rover with a part-time job and being a full time student. My flexibility depends on the time of year because of this but, usually, I am willing to travel up to 20 minutes for check ins/walks and house sit further away. When I’m taking care of your pets, that is my complete focus. My top priority is keeping your pets as stress-free, happy, and healthy as possible, and I will try to accommodate in any way you ask.

About: I've taken care of pets for friends and relatives numerous times in the past. Now looking to do the same on here and get paid for what I'm good at. I used to have a cat of my own so they're my specialty, but I do good with dogs too. I'm always available, so hit me up whenever you need and we'll work out times and such. Going on vacation? Sudden family plans? I got you covered. I don't offer boarding since my relatives aren't cool with it, but I can easily come to you just fine. All I need to know is when to walk the dog, when to change litter for the cats, that sort of thing.

“Ashley did phenomenal and went above and beyond when I needed someone in rather short notice. She always kept me informed and sent plenty of pictures of my pup while I was away. She is able to easily establish a great connection with animals. You can tell she has a genuine compassion and love for animals, especially when they are apart from their owner. Ashley is very professional, friendly, and skillful at caring for animals. Despite having a prior engagement to attend a wedding, she came back afterwards late at night to care for my dog when my flight was delayed. I highly recommend Ashley as she is an excellent care giver.”

About: Hi! I’m Quin. I grew up with cats, dogs, a bunny, and was a member of an Alpaca 4-H club since I was in 3rd grade, I don’t know a world without animals. I genuinely love getting to know people’s pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. My current house currently boasts four cats of various ages, from kittens to an old lady, and a young Australian Shepherd mix. Because of this, I'm very comfortable with both cats, dogs, and households that have multiple pets. I've also spent a large part of my life caring for senior animals and pets who need a little extra attention. I've managed medications, special diets, frequent potty breaks, and other individualized care, including caring for a previous dog with a seizure disorder. My approach to pet care is to meet each animal where they are. I love matching their energy, whether that means a long walk and plenty of playtime, some quiet companionship, or simply giving a shy pet the time and space they need to become comfortable with me. I'm detail-oriented and happy to follow specific routines and care instructions because I know how important it is to feel confident that your pet is being cared for exactly the way you would care for them. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and cat sitting. I'm happy to care for pets who need extra attention or have special routines, and I always want to make your time away as easy and worry-free as possible. Most importantly, I want your pets to feel like they have a friend looking after them while you're gone. If that sounds like the kind of pet care you need, please reach out to me! I am currently a part-time student with another job on top of Rover, so please take a look at the calendar to book with me! Pet safety is my top priority. I am familiar with dealing with cats and dogs who don't get along and make sure not just to stop dangerous scenarios but also to prevent them altogether.

I’m a veterinarian and I have a lot of specific needs, but she stepped in and cared for our boy just as her own—even better than I could have asked for. You would be lucky to have her looking after your pet! Thank you for everything, Shannon!!”

About: What sets me apart is the love and attention I give each dog as if they were my own. I’m very attentive to routines, feeding, and behavior, making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable. I’m also organized, patient, and I always make sure they get plenty of affection, playtime, and care. I’m fully available, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I can give pets consistent attention, follow their schedule, and be present throughout the day. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, safe, and loving environment with plenty of space to explore. I’m lucky to have a large outdoor area with beautiful surroundings, including small lakes and walking paths, which allows for relaxing walks and plenty of fresh air. I always supervise outdoor time to ensure safety. Inside, I keep a clean, cozy space where pets can rest comfortably and follow their usual routines. In clients’ homes, I respect each pet’s routine and environment, making sure they feel secure and cared for while you’re away.

About: I have been fostering for over 15 years and petsitting for about 5 of those years. I took a break for some time when I moved to Texas, and then the pandemic added to that. Most recently, I was taking care of my grandmothers dog.. essentially a hospice situation, and spent most of my time loving up on him. Since his passing, I would love to get back into it so can provide care and love. I’m used to all breeds, but have the most experience with bully breeds chihuahuas, and most medium size breeds like shitzhus, Maltese’s, and schnauzers. Very comfortable providing oral or topical ointments.. nothing really grosses me out. I enjoy providing baths and making sure your furry friend is feeling their best. Especially for my dirty white dogs with the crusty eyes (lol)! Overall, I treat every pet that walks into my life like it were my own. I take pride in knowing that I’m giving someone’s pet lots of love and care while their owner is away. I want them to feel like they’re hanging with a friend and try to alleviate any stress. Leaving your baby for any period of time is tough, so knowing you have someone you can trust to be an extension of you is all I want. I lost my job recently, so I’ll have a lot more time for walks, feedings, and of course cuddle time with the puppies. Other than caring for my own kitty, my time would really be catered to your needs as an owner should you choose me to help take care of your little one. Our home has a partially fenced in yard that we can allow your pet to enjoy. There’s a full basement, living room, and bedroom that the pups can enjoy relaxing in and hanging out. There’s space for a crate as well for those who are or in the process of training.

About: I have owned dogs, cats, fish, lizards, and even frogs and have adored them all. My experience with dogs spans many breeds from Shar Pei to Labradoodles and each of them have their own unique needs which I am more than happy to meet. I currently work at Capital Health on Mondays and Wednesdays from 8 am until 4:30 pm. I am available all hours otherwise and am flexible with my scheduling. I have a senior dog that recently turned 14. She has a lot of special healthcare needs such as requiring help when going up and down stairs and only being able to eat special meals. She has been in my care since she was a puppy and required many hours of play and higher supervision. I am able to care for dogs of all ages and I’m more than happy to do so.

About: I grew up with dogs and helped raise two litters of bernese mountain dog puppies. Six years ago, I adopted my own dog, Harley, who is a vizsla/catahoula leopard dog mix. Through my experience caring for Harley, I’ve acquired skills to help fearful dogs enjoy walks and adventures while helping dogs learn to feel safe and secure in their environments. I am currently a graduate student and have a very flexible schedule for dog walking! Walking dogs is one of the best parts of my day! I care for my client’s dogs the same as I do my own. Building trust with dogs through patience and kindness will set a strong foundation for many fun times together!

About: Hi, besides the obvious of loving animals, I have had first hand raising them growing up, and later I worked and lived on a farm tending for both the farm (~100 sheep, horses, goats, llamas, chicken) and the house animals (4 dogs, and a cat) Student looking for part time gigs, I’m pretty flexible with short-notice/on-call availability throughout the whole week. I love animals and have plenty of experience so this opportunity would be the perfect coupling! I’m great at following instructions (almost to a fault!) so I will do my best to take the best care of your furry family. Little bit about me: I’m a student, part time barista, I love nature and photography, taking walks and hiking, farmer’s markets, keeping a nice and tidy environment, cafes and hanging out with friends.

I was grateful to find Cristina, especially in such short notice for 4th of July. She was very communicative and friendly. Both of my girls are jumpers and my one girl, Molly, can come off strong at times which can make some apprehensive to approach and turn away. Despite this, it did not steer Cristina away during the meet greet. She handled them with such calm and ease. Cristina provided me with an update and photos after taking care of my girls which put my mind at ease and made me feel comfortable. I would recommend her to anyone and definitely use her again.

FAQs for Dog Walking - New Brunswick

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in New Brunswick on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 16,324 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across New Brunswick. 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 New Brunswick. 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 New Brunswick.

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 New Brunswick. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
