About: I've had the wonderful experience of caring for the many animals at the humane society including dogs, cats, bunnies, mice, and birds. I've had the chance to bond with animals with a variety of different personalities and background stories. I also have administered medication and cared for animals with different medical needs including chronic kidney disease. I hope to bring my experience and passion for animals to better serve your feline and canine friends. I hope to dedicate plenty of time to spend taking care of your animal companions. I am available in the early mornings and all throughout the day. In addition to feeding and changing the litter box, I hope to check in on your animals to make sure they are comfortable and there are no hazardous items around. I hope to spend some time socializing and playing with them if they up for it! Otherwise, a friendly hello will do.

About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 20 years and have always treated every pet like family. I work from home so your dog will receive around the clock attention! This comes with lots of love, a big 6ft fully fenced in yard, and lots of cuddles & attention. I’m experienced with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I prioritize patience, safety, exercise, affection, and keeping each dog comfortable in a familiar home environment. I’m attentive to routines, feeding schedules, medications when needed, and each pet’s individual personality. Each dog comes with their own personality, so my aim is to recreate an environment similar to home to make your dog as comfortable as possible. My goal is simple: give your dog a safe, happy, and stress-free stay while giving you complete peace of mind. Please let me know if you have any questions! Making your dog comfortable while you are away is my priority! I will always treat your dog like my own - I am a dog lover at heart! ****PLEASE BOOK AHEAD OF TIME IF BOOKING FOR THE WEEK OF THANKSGIVING - FIRST COME BASIS**** I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day. A major advantage to booking me is that I work from home so I’m with your companion around the clock. I’m available for boarding and daycare. I’m happy to accommodate your dog’s normal routine, including walks, meals, playtime, rest, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I understand that every dog has different needs, so I’ll work with you to make their stay as comfortable and consistent as possible. I own 2 Pomeranians that are friendly and free spirited. They like to hangout and meet their new friends. My smallest dog, Cookie, has a bit of a napoleon complex due to him being a tea cup; his size makes him nervous but after 2 min he will be best friends with any dog lol! he is just a cute ball with a big personality. My yard is fully secured by a 6 foot fence enclosing the environment to ensure no dogs can escape. I also live on a dead-end street, where there is no active motor vehicles so it is very quite and safe! Behind my house gives your dog a huge yard to play and get the zoomies out while giving you the peace of mind that your pet is 100% safe with me. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my most priorities. To recap: I have a secure, fenced yard where dogs can safely get exercise and enjoy supervised outdoor play, along with a comfortable home environment for relaxing and sleeping. I also have two friendly dogs who can provide companionship when appropriate, while always respecting each dogs temperament and boundaries. Dogs can be separated or crated when needed, and I’m happy to follow your specific feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions. I want every pet to feel safe, loved, while at home <3 . I am also trained to give dogs medicine orally or by injection. I treat every dog I watch like my own - with love, care and support .

About: I have raised my two cats Ginger and Marble since they were a few weeks old, and they are 8 now. While I’m away at school (Babson College in Wellesley), I miss my cats and would love to take care of your pets. I often take care of my cousins’ dogs, and my girlfriend’s dogs as well. I schedule my life around the needs of your pets. My classes are from Monday - Thursday in the afternoon, so I can walk pets in the morning or evening every day. Walking is one of my favorite pastimes so I can spend a lot of time outdoors with your pets if they like that. I feed my cats a variety of cat foods and real natural foods, and will care for yours however you prefer. Also, I refill the water for pets often so they have fresh water, and my cats like to drink straight from the sink. Also, I am very tidy, and will make sure your house stays very clean.

About: I worked in a Doggy Daycare/Sitting Business called Bark & Purr, so I already have experience taking care and training many different dogs and cats. I am currently doing a side hustle job in landscaping! But the hours are very flexible, so I am free nonstop, especially during the afternoon - evenings. I have two huge parks and a fenced dog park to bring your fur baby to! The apartment is very spacious and dog friendly so you don't have to worry about your dog feeling stressed and claustrophobic.

About: I have watched pets most of my life of friends, and family. I take the time to get to know their personalities, routines, and special needs, because I believe every pet deserves personalized care and attention. I have a traditional 9–5 job Monday to Thursday and work from home on Fridays. Morning would feed and walk. Lunch would be midday walk, which my job is about 10 minute from home. Evening would be walk, spending play time and evening feeding. Weekends I’m home spending time with pet. I have plenty of room to accommodate your pets space. I can also crate if you want. I also have a large front yard for play time. There are sidewalks all through town, which is close to my home for walks.

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my whole life. Friends, family, and peers trust me to take care of their pets while they’re away. I made sure that they returned home better than ever like they went on a vacation too! I have experience with high-energy pups to senior dogs and can adapt to their personality and pace. I enjoy caring for animals from walking, playing, administering medication, grooming, and providing a calm space. What find most important is being patient and attentive to what your pet specifically needs. My top priority is always keeping pets happy and healthy. I’m currently on a break from school and not working on anything else. My dog, cat, and turtle keep me company in the house. I enjoy daily walks, visiting the park, and sunset outings. Rain or shine I’m available to go on walks, have playtime, visit parks, or give cozy cuddles. I’d be happy to take dogs out to walk wherever they’re most comfortable. I can also assist with grooming, clean up, take in mail, water plants, or any other tasks. I’m currently not taking pets into my home but I am willing to travel.

About: I will ensure your pet will get exercise and love when they are with me. I will play with toys, and give them endless belly rubs. I walk my dogs frequently throughout the day. I play with them as much as they want to play, and I give them lots of love and attention. I do this for all of my family members’ and friends’ pets as well, whenever I care for them. I am available to start caring for your pets today up until July 1st, which is when I will be getting my work schedule for my nursing career. After that, I am willing to work around my nursing schedule to care for your fur babies. I have a 3 year old mini Goldendoodle and a 12 year old golden retriever. I take them on multiple walks through out the day, feed them twice daily, ensure they have enough exercise and give them lots of love and play time. I will do the same for your family pets!

About: I currently have two shih tzus myself. I am very familiar with picky eaters and stubborn walkers. I am extremely patient and will love your pet as much as you do! I know how stressful it could be to leave your pet and having someone you can trust is key to enjoying yourself. Sitting and walking pups brigs joy to my life! I am a nurse and only work three days so I have a very flexible schedule. I love the dog parks and love walking around town seeing all the cute pups. My previous dog had a seizure disorder which made me extremely comfortable in administering medications. I understand elderly dogs as well. Any needs your pet has I would be happy to do so!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 27,503 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Northvale. 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 Northvale. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Northvale after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Northvale. On Rover:

  • 83% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

walkers on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
