“Naidilis was an excellent dog walker. Dolly loved her right away which is not always the case! She brought her own doggy bags and was on time. She has a very sweet and kind disposition. She is also very easy to talk to. I would highly recommend her services.”
“Booked last minute. Geoff communicated quickly, followed all instructions & took good care of my pup. He was very punctual and Fanta had a great time with him. Thank you”
“Highly recommend Jonny! He took great care of Sky and was punctual and communicative. I love receiving the Rover report cards at the end of every walk with photos. Thanks so much!”
“Kind, reliable, conscientious … if there were more than 5 stars, I’d happily award those. Marc walked my foster dog for a week while I was on vacation and was amazing. Great communication and, as importantly, consistently great care for my pup. Highly recommended!”
“First time meet and greet. Moe was skiddish, as expected but warmed up to Daniel pretty quickly and let him take for a nice walk. Was on time, respectful, and courteous.”
“This was my first time using Rover or any dog walking service, let alone have anyone aside from myself, dad, or brother take care of my pup. And I have ZERO regrets. My dad was supposed to stay with my dog for the long weekend I was away, but last minute he couldn’t and I needed a plan B. I came to Rover to see if I could find a solution and I did- Peter! My pup is very lovable but also not easy, and many are too scared or just don’t want to deal with him. Because of that, I wanted to do a meet and greet first, which Peter happily agreed to. After just one visit, I knew that not only could he handle my dog and he would be well-taken care of, but knew they both were about to become buds. I was able to go away and not have any worries, especially since Peter gave very thorough recaps of his visits and pictures. Needless to say, my heart and mind were put at ease and I can’t think him enough for that. I will definitely be utilizing his services in the future and I know Thor will not mind at all.”
“Claudine has been walking my pup Brady for a few months now & he absolutely adores her!! She is extremely professional & loves what she does, I couldn't recommend her enough!”
About: I feel as though i have an ability to communicate with animals in ways I cannot communicate with humans. I believe all dogs are gifts from god and we are fortunate to experience their unconditional love. I currently work from home, which allows for a very open schedule, and affords me a lot of freedom when necessary. I can also adapt my current situation to make special accommodations. we have a fenced in yard, I also have a county park located at the end of my street, which also has several dog parks included within it.
“Vivian put our mind at ease while we trusted her care with our dog. She was patient and supportive, while providing such detailed daily updates of our furry friend. Highly recommended for her services!”
About: During my time there, I handled various dog breeds and played/walked dogs of all ages, including senior dogs and puppies. I have worked with animals that have disabilities. I also have walked and played with my family and friend’s dogs when they needed a dog sitter. Prior to dog walking my family friends dogs, I was a Pet Care Specialist for several months at Morris Animal Inn. I’m currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your animal and/or animals! I am available on week days, and/or weekends if needed. I will make sure your animals safety is my top priority, and can give them treats if needed. From working at Morris Animal Inn, I have experience and knowledge of working with animals.
“Nicole does a great job with walking and doggy day care! Both of our girls have different energy levels and Nicole is great at catering to both! We'll definitely continue to use her and are very grateful for finding someone that understands our dogs and really cares about their well-being.”
About: I have always been involved in pet care in my home for over 15 years. I have had experience with elderly dogs and cats of my own. I have pet-sitted in my neighborhood for puppies and for breeds different from my own dogs. I will use my energy to play with your pet and hopefully decrease their energy. I have a very flexible schedule since graduating college and applying to graduate school nearby. I have lots of time and availability for stop-ins during the day or bringing study materials to a client’s home. My yard is fenced in and I can take dogs for a walk in Brookdale Park nearby. I will administer medicine and play with dogs and provide them with a cuddly environment.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Nutley
This was my first time using Rover or any dog walking service, let alone have anyone aside from myself, dad, or brother take care of my pup. And I have ZERO regrets. My dad was supposed to stay with my dog for the long weekend I was away, but last minute he couldn’t and I needed a plan B. I came to Rover to see if I could find a solution and I did- Peter! My pup is very lovable but also not easy, and many are too scared or just don’t want to deal with him. Because of that, I wanted to do a meet and greet first, which Peter happily agreed to.

Cynthia has been absolutely wonderful with my stubborn puppy, who took to her from day one. She truly is a dog whisperer! She is patient, caring, and treats my dog as if he were her own. It’s clear how much she loves and cares for my dog, and that gives me complete peace of mind. I highly recommend Cynthia to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and dedicated dog walker. The love, attention, and care she provides are truly exceptional.
Carolina is fantastic and I highly recommend her! She is punctual, communicative, and our Doggo really loved his walks with her! She sent us plenty of photos of Oli on his walks and photos of him eating his dinner and drinking water. We will definitely continue to reach out to her when we need Oli to be walked! Thank you Carolina! 💕
Krista has been an absolutely amazing dog walker! She is reliable, communicative, and clearly has a true love for animals. I always feel at ease knowing my dog is in such caring and capable hands. She goes above and beyond with updates, photos, and thoughtful attention to my dog’s needs and personality. My pup gets so excited every time she comes by, which says everything. I would highly recommend Krista to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and professional dog walker!
I cannot recommend Kathy highly enough as a dog walker. She is consistently reliable, punctual, and deeply attentive to my dog, Emma’s needs. From day one, it was clear that she genuinely cared about Emma — not just getting the job done, but making sure each walk was safe, engaging, and enjoyable. And that was important because Emma is a lively dog who eats everything in sight. Communication is always prompt and professional, and I appreciate the regular updates and photos after each visit. Most importantly, Emma absolutely adores Kathy and comes home happy and well-exercised every time. Knowing Emma is in such dependable hands gives me complete peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and compassionate, Kathy is an outstanding choice!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Nutley on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 28,365 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Nutley. 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 Nutley. 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 Nutley.

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 Nutley. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
