Dog Walking in Newark

“Betty is awesome!!! I have had her scheduled for daily walks for my puppy since I started my new job. She is always prompt and brings her on nice long walks, no matter the weather. I love getting pictures and updates everyday! She is super flexible and very accommodating when I have a surprise day off or surprise over time and need to cancel or add an extra walk. Definitely recommend!!”

About: I’ve always been good with animals. My family has been raising dogs since I was a little kid and I really love all our pets. I work part time, usually in the afternoons/night. This would be something good for me to do during the day to keep working and staying busy. I have been walking my dogs and taking care of them since I was 9. I’ve always been responsible for cleaning up after them and keeping them safe. I’d do the same for any dog I’d walk or let out.

About: I have been dog sitting since like I was 8 with my family. I have had many pets that include dogs, cats, and a hamster. I used to have a German shepherd and Pomeranian, sadly they have both passed now due to old age. But now I have a short haired collie, so I have experience with small and big dogs and all personalities of the pets. I am able to walk, bathe, feed, and brush them too! I am in college, and can walk dogs in my free time when they align with the time I do not have class. Dogs can also stay overnight, one night. Or I can dog sit. I have had many dogs, so I have experience with how to care for them in any way. Training, feeding, walking, bathing, grooming, as well as playing with them!

“Natalie was a great communicator and took excellent care of Hughie! Her notes were very helpful since he’s a puppy and still working his manners, really appreciated Natalie’s service!”

“Jenni had contacted me to let me know that she was on her way for our dogs’ walk. She took pics of them to show us that she was at our home with the dogs. I had told her about the route the dogs were use to taking and she showed us the map of the route. The dogs were good for her out on the walk. When they got home they were well tired enough and curled up for a nap. I look forward to having Jenni come walk them again!”

“Katherine is great. We had a terrific meet and greet and so we left our dogs a few days later to be walked by her with great confidence. She also lives not too far from us and we bumped into her while she was walking her dogs so we got to observe the strong relationship she has with her pups and their socialization. After her visit with Opal and Oz we received great photos of them. We came home to happy whippets. Could not ask for more.”

“Keira was wonderful. She helped walk our dog while we were on vacation and Chewie was staying with my parents who have difficulty walking him regularly. She was incredibly prompt and arrived at the same time every morning. Our dog warmed up to her very quickly and she even managed to win over my parents dogs who are generally wary of people they don't know well. I would highly recommend her.”

About: Grew up with a very small dog but my family used to dog-sit and walk dogs for my neighbors with all kinds of dogs! We trained our dog and I know a good amount about owning/taking care of dogs and puppies from past experience. I am currently a full time college student so I’m pretty flexible! I’m pretty available in the morning, nights and sporadically during the day. I walk my dog twice a day for 20 minutes minimum given that she is a small pup and I'm ready to accommodate to any pups needs. I make sure to train her with training treats to keep mental stimulation up! I am also very attentive to make sure she’s always comfortable and safe!

About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs for as long as I can remember—starting from age six, I grew up surrounded by pets and can’t imagine life without them. I currently have three cats and one dog of my own, so daily pet care is already a natural part of my routine. Over the years, I’ve learned to understand animals’ different personalities, needs, and signals. I’m patient, loving, and attentive, and I treat every pet like family. I’m also comfortable with bathing and grooming, including giving basic haircuts for dogs. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a shy senior, or a curious kitty, I always adapt my care to make each pet feel safe, happy, and loved. With my flexible work schedule and my husband working from home full-time, your pet will never feel alone. One of us is always around to provide consistent care, attention, and supervision throughout the day. Whether it’s feeding, potty breaks, playtime, or just quiet companionship, we’re here to make your pet feel safe, loved, and part of the family—even on weekends. This constant presence allows us to closely follow their routines and quickly respond to any needs that come up. In my pet-friendly home, safety and comfort come first. I provide a calm, clean space with plenty of playtime and supervision. My own dog is friendly and well-socialized, happy to keep your pup company. I’m located near beautiful state parks and reservoirs—perfect for peaceful, enriching walks in nature. Whether in my home or yours, I follow your pet’s routine closely and offer lots of love, attention, and care as if they were my own.

About: I've had dogs my whole life and love to pet sit for friends and family! Dogs of all shapes and sizes are welcome. I'm a college student missing her dog and would love to give that energy to your animals I'm currently a college student who's in classes during the day, but work on a pretty flexible schedule. I can be around on weeknights for as many hours as needed and am available for weekends. I've dogsit and cared for many types of dogs in my time and am able to accomodate whatever care your animal needs in your home. I have worked with breeds of all sizes. I will bring all the love and energy to make sure they are happy while you're away

About: I've taken care of pets of all kinds since I was very young, from birds to cats and lizards to dogs, being tasked to walk, care for, feed, and just generally oversee. I am also a current Pre-veterinarian undergrad, and am confident in my taught abilities to both handle and treat animals. I love working with any and all animals, and am absolutely thrilled to be working with your furry friends! I'm a current college student who does this on breaks, so I'm mostly available during the summer and winter months. I am available this winter from December to early February. I currently have a very eccentric 3 year old, and as such have experimented a lot in the safest possible options for your pets! I am super confident I can provide a safe environment where trust can be built and your pet is safe.

“Very professional. Took great care of our pup. Would rebook without hesitation.”

About: I've always grown up surrounded by dogs, whether that was in my own household or around family. On my way to become a veterinarian, I continuously care for my own dogs, my neighbors dogs and spend my time volunteering at an animal shelter nearby, Father Johns, and ensure the health and safety of all ages of dogs. I am super excited to continue dog walking and care for your pets needs! I am currently a full time student at UD so classes may interfere but I am open to discussing times to care for your pet! Throughout my life, I've had years of experience with large dogs, senior dogs, puppies, etc. I have also had experience with many different behaviors of dogs and understand it can be hard to meet a fresh face. I will carefully comfort your pet, and introduce myself in a calm manner to ensure the safety of your pet and myself, so your pet can have a fun, relaxing time!

About: I grew up with two dogs, one big and energetic, one small and calm, so I have experience with both! I am reliable, punctual, and would love the opportunity to help keep your dogs happy, healthy, and active. I am currently working part time and attending flight school twice a week, so I have a flexible schedule to care for your pets! Walks available frequently! I am a very respectful, careful, and communicative person. I am there to do the job I was hired for, prioritizing the care and safety of your dog.

“Mackenzie is great! She was very communicative and sweet. I definitely plan to use her again in the future :)”

“Our dogs love Fiona! Fiona always goes above and beyond—whether it's making sure my dog gets enough exercise, providing water breaks, or just giving extra attention and love. I appreciate their punctuality and professionalism, and I feel completely at ease knowing my dog is in such good hands. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve grown up with German Shepherds and an American Bully. I have taken care of a senior dog and puppies for weeks at a time. As well as frequent dog walkings. I am a graduated college student with a break before physical therapy school begins. I have many available times throughout the week. Very flexible with your needs. I have a yard and a walking path nearby. I have no pets in the home so your pet will get my full attention. In your home I will be able to take care of your pet as well as keeping your home tidy.

About: I have been pet/ babysitting for my neighbors, family members, and friends for the past 6 years. I even have a dog of my own who is fifteen and still acts and plays like a puppy! Currently, I work part time but my shifts are typically no longer than eight hours. My job is very flexible and I can change my availability/ give up shifts in order to find time for both jobs. I am willing to provide leashes for dogs that I am walking and also have a dog that is 80+ pounds and have no issues with walking him, so I am definitely comfortable with larger dogs.

About: I have 9+ years of experience with walking dogs, and years of experience in feeding, training, playing, and caring for both dogs and cats. My entire life I have always been drawn to animals, and am a huge animal lover! In my early teen years, I worked at a dog daycare where I oversaw the care of up to 14 dogs at one time. It was a huge responsibility, but I looked forward to going to work each shift I had because to me it didn’t even feel like work, it felt like a reward getting to care and play with so many animals. Whenever I go anywhere whether it’s a walk around my college campus, a family or friends house, or the park, I am always immediately drawn to all the dogs I see and always ask if I can take a minute to pet each dog. A multitude of family and friends have consistently told me that it’s evident how much I love animals, and how well I get along with them. I am someone you can trust to make sure your pet gets the best possible care when you are gone. As a former cat owner and current dog owner myself, I know just how much love and care pets need on a day to day basis. Whenever I am away from my dog who is my bestfriend in the whole world, I definitely can feel anxious or stressed. I am dedicated to keeping pet parents up to date on the wellbeing of your pets with photos, videos, up to date messages and anything else you’d like as a pet parent (I am happy to do facetime calls too!!). I will always be available and reachable when I am with your pet to answer any questions, concerns, or even just send over some extra photos if you are really missing your furry companion! Additionally, your pets wellbeing and safety is my top priority. I have worked hard to familiarize myself with signs of distress and discomfort in animals, and if anything doesn’t look right I will not hesitate to jump into action to make sure your pet is safe. My dog has had a few scary incidents, and as difficult as it was, it helped to prepare me to know the signs when something is not right and know what to do in case of an emergency. I decided to join rover because I wanted the opportunity to help take care and hangout with animals on a regular basis because it is truly something I absolutely love. I am hard working, enthusiastic, dedicated, and I will care for your pet as if it is my own. I hope you will consider entrusting me to care for such a valuable member of your family! • * Please note I require meet and greets with all potential pet clients BEFORE bookings!* I am currently a full time college student, so I have lots of extra time to care for your furry companion. I am very flexible, and when I am not in classes or other school commitments I have a very open schedule to care for your pet! Currently, I offer services within the clients home for walks or check ins with your pet. I am very flexible, and will work with you to get to know what routine works best for your pet. At this time due to a family members allergy, I am not able to offer boarding services in my home.
