Dog Walkers in North Hanover, NJ

About: Hello, my name is Ashley. I am a Certified Veterinary Technician with 20 years of experience in general practice, emergency & critical care, and radiation oncology. My career has been dedicated to providing attentive, high level care to animals, with a focus on safety, comfort, and individualized attention. As a military spouse for the past 20 years, I’ve had the privilege of working in veterinary practices across the country, gaining extensive specialty experience and caring for pets with a wide range of medical and emotional needs. These experiences shaped my calm, adaptable approach and deep understanding that every pet deserves thoughtful, personalized care. I am certified in both Basic Life Support (BLS CPR) and Advanced Life Support (ALS CPR), and I’m especially comfortable caring for senior pets, anxious pets, post procedure/operative patients, and medically complex animals who benefit from experienced handling and close observation. My goal is to provide a seamless, stress free experience for both pets and their owners. Whether your pet prefers quiet companionship, structured routines, or extra reassurance while you’re away, they will be cared for with professionalism, patience, and genuine affection. I understand the level of trust it takes to place your pet in someone else’s care, and I strive to offer the same level of attentiveness and reliability I would want for my own animals. After spending 20 years in veterinary specialty hospitals, I’ve decided to step away from clinical medicine and focus on what I love most, providing compassionate, personalized care for pets in my community. My background allows me to comfortably care for pets with specialized medical needs, seniors, anxiety, medications, and post-procedure care. While safety and medical knowledge are a huge part of my experience, my goal now is simple: to give pets the love, comfort, cuddles, patience, and pampering they deserve. As someone who understands that unexpected work trips, emergencies, long days, and last minute plans happen, I purposely keep my schedule as open and flexible as possible to help support pet owners when they need it most. At this time, I provide care exclusively in your pet’s home environment rather than offering in home boarding or daycare services. I currently have pets of my own at home, and I believe this allows me to give your pet the safest, calmest, and most individualized experience possible in the comfort of their familiar surroundings. Providing care in your home also helps minimize stress, maintain routines, and allows me to focus on personalized attention, specialized care, cuddles, companionship, and pampering tailored to your pet’s unique needs.

About: As an Air Force veteran with over 6 years of service, I bring reliability, responsibility, and attention to detail into every pet care experience. I’ve had dogs my entire life and also have experience caring for cats, so I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I regularly dog and cat sit for my spouse’s coworkers, and I truly enjoy creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for pets while their owners are away. I also have experience caring for a dog with seizures, including administering medication twice a day, so I’m comfortable following special care instructions and keeping a close eye on pets who may need extra attention or medical support. I am a full-time online student, which means I’ll be home throughout the day and able to give your pets plenty of attention, care, and supervision. I have a fenced-in yard for supervised playtime and exercise, along with two friendly dogs who enjoy the company of other pups. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both the pets and the home with respect and care.

About: Currently available as needed. Would provide play time, multiple potty breaks, and walks with my own dogs! Have large yard and tons of toys. I previously worked in a vet office, so giving medication is not a hassle. Dogs can do as they please while supervised. Working in a vet office has provided knowledge of basic cpr, how to help/ prevent a choking incident and how to orally give medication as well as administering vaccines and or insulin. I own many types of pets and would only trust the best for my kiddos, and I know im not alone! All animals deserve great care and love, and I would love to help provide that. Any other questions about me are always welcome:) I am currently home and available at all times! I pick up my kiddos from school at 3 and we are ready to help your furry friends with any of their needs! I have two friendly dogs who love company and two kids to help get their energy out we live on 5.5 acres and love to go for leashed walks along the property!

“We love Patty! She is amazing and I feel very comfortable leaving my Sunnie girl with her ?❤️ She communicates very well and really loves our dog like it’s her own ❤️”

About: I currently have a 4 year old beagle named Louie that I adore! Growing up I’ve had big dogs (Rhodesian ridge backs, pit bull mixes) and I’ve had little dogs (min pin, miniature poodle, and beagles) so no matter the size or age I am confident that I could handle them. I have a long hair cat and a beagle so I am used to scooping cat litter, picking up dog poop, and I’m not afraid of the occasional puke haha. I don’t mind grooming any size animal if necessary While pet sitting in the past I follow their feeding regime and would walk animals every couple hours. Of course give extra loves to pets while owners are away so they feel happy. Also lots of playing with them and their toys!

About: Over the past year or so I have put together my love for walking with dogs. I began walking at a local rescue a few days during the week and then began taking on other dogs in my neighborhood. I also have started drop in visits to help care for pets while their parents are out of town. I have taken care of dogs, cats and even a fish. I am open to helping you with whatever you may need help with. I have had dogs all my life and I have recently added a fun love very playful puppy named Pippy to our household. She is an amazing toy doodle. We do walks daily and work on her obedience training throughout the week. She is doing great for her age. I’m a stay at home mom of two boys and a playful pup named Pippy. My days are currently free during the week ,so I can offer dog walking and mid day doggie breaks. I can also offer drop in visits for pets that are lower maintenance and don’t need constant eyes on them during the day. I am very flexible and would love to help if I can. Please don’t hesitate to ask me! If I can I will. I will care for your pets like I would care for my own. I will give them lots of love and affection with safety being number 1. I am very careful to follow all the owners need and wants when caring for their pets. I love sharing updates and picture with the owners on my visits. I take pride in my work and make sure I am on time for every job. I am careful to lock up behind me and make sure the pets are secure before leaving them. I am very respectful of people’s home and property as well.

About: I have cared for dogs at every stage of life since I was a child. I am particularly adept at managing litters, having successfully trained multiple puppies at once to encourage good behavior and social confidence. My professional background in restorative practices makes me an exceptionally observant sitter, perfect for pets with anxiety or those needing strict medical recovery protocols. From the specialized needs of a senior to the round-the-clock energy of a new litter, I provide reliable, high-quality care that honors your pet's unique personality. I have three dogs and two cats of my own. I am working a flexible part time job so I have plenty of free time to spend with animals and take care of their needs. I have a fenced in yard and a park nearby that had a fenced in dog area and lots of walking trails. I personally home cook my dogs food so if there are special diet restrictions I have experience. I love spending time bonding with my animals and would put that time into someone else’s pets to make them feel loved and safe whether that’s cuddling, wrestling, playing ball or dog walking.

About: I’ve always been very comfortable around animals and genuinely enjoy caring for them. I previously worked as a pet sitter caring for a home with 7 cats and understand how important routine, cleanliness, patience, and attention are for pets while their owners are away. I also volunteer with Catsbury Park cat rescue and currently care for 6 cats of my own, so I have experience with different personalities, energy levels, and care needs. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine since I already care for multiple cats of my own every day. I’m currently available Wednesday evenings, Thursdays, and Fridays for drop-in visits and pet sitting. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and always make sure pets are fed, comfortable, and given attention while their owners are away. I always prioritize creating a calm, safe, and clean environment for every pet I care for. I understand how important routines are for animals, especially cats, and I carefully follow feeding instructions, litter box cleaning, medications if needed, and any special care requests. I’m respectful of clients’ homes and focus on making pets feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free while their owners are away.

About: I am a happy owner of 2 cats and a yellow lab. I've had pets (cats, dogs, rabbits, lizards, fish, you name it) all my life. I am a huge animal lover and if I was to start my career all over again I might have become a veterinarian! But instead I have chosen the business path and became an accountant. I am very interested in pet sitting as this will give me the best of both worlds! I look forward to taking care of your pet as I would my own spoiled rotten pets at home :) I have watched friends and families cats/dogs over the years, mostly by visiting their house and feeding the pets/going for walks, etc. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover my whole life. I have had dogs since the time I was born. My experience administering medication Yes, as long as the dog is used to taking the medication and reacts well to it.

About: I have worked in various different ways with animals throughout the past 6 years. I have pet sat for family friends and used to work in a kennel where we board both cats and dogs. I have had pets all my life and know how much they mean to you so I will give them the best care! I have a part time job but it is very flexible! I am looking to do pet sitting full time so I have as much time for your pets as I can! I make sure the pets are comfortable and happy. Just write down what your pet needs and I will make sure to follow their schedule.

“Avery is amazing with our Kaya. She has a friendly, welcoming personality and goes above and beyond. She made sure Kaya had everything she needed, she showed genuine care for our dog. I'm so happy we found this Rover app and found Avery. She was our first dog walker through this app and she helped guide me through the process. We will definitely be calling Avery to help us once she gets back from college. Thank you for being a good human Avery! Kaya can't wait to see you again. 🐶🐾❤️”

About: I have a husky who is my child. I love to play with him in the yard and take him to the dog park. I have always gotten along great with animals. They have always been first in my life because they put such a big smile on my face. I have always enjoyed pet sitting because I know how much they miss their owners. I just hope I can be the next best thing and make their stay-cation as stressful and as fun as possible. When the owner leaves dogs don't know if you are coming back or not . I think pet-sitting is such a wonderful idea for them to have. I am currently not working have a lot of free time on my plate so I am very flexible with scheduling. I will work with what’s best for the client. I also have no problem getting on and off Joint Base MBL if you need me to pet sit there. I do have a husky who is very friendly but I would prefer to do drop by visits . I am very flexible to the situation.

About: As a kid, I was the reason my parents got a dog that I ended up loving and taking care of during my childhood. I have always loved animals and as an adult now I have had a cat for 5 years.

I have experience taking care of friend's pets (mostly cats), but I am also definitely able to take care of dogs if given instructions and I love to walk dogs as well. If you want someone who will love and care for your pet I am that person! I am currently flexible part time for pet care. I can take care of your pet in the morning or the afternoon for the most part and can be available on weekends as well Currently not able to care for pets in my home, but I will be able to go to your home and care for your pet if needed.
