“Megan was incredible! Super responsive and so nice! She helped me out big time and even helped me out when Winston had an accident inside. She made me so comfortable and know my pup was well taken care of I will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: Hi! My name is Elisheba, along with being a mother to 3 kids, I am also a lover of all things furry and cute. I have been caring for dogs my entire life and have owned American Bulldogs, Boerboels and Frienchies. I frequently dog sit for my friend's furry kids while they are away. I have experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes as well as energy levels. I am a laid back person myself, but my children sure do a great job at keeping pups active and entertained. I consider myself an experienced puppy snuggler but I love going on walks and venturing to local dog parks. I understand that your dog is a member of your family and I will make sure they feel like they are a member of mine!

“Megan has been awesome walking with our excitable GSD! She is prompt, communicative, and friendly. I love the detailed updates and photos she shares on her walks and trust her to handle our big pup.”

“We wanted the perfect fit for our older and anxious dog and our overly excited/dog crazy puppy. Meaghan went above and beyond. I felt comfortable knowing she was in my home without us there and that she could understand my dog’s personalities and emotions to know what they needed for the day. It helped ease my worry while I had long days at work. Overall a very kind person and very responsible. Also gave the best updates after the walk so I could see how happy they were.”

About: My heart loves your pets as mine own. Need special medical care? Extra belly rubs? A million pictures sent to you? Please tell me I’d love to meet them. I am a nurse and have a pretty flexible schedule. I work 3 days a week. Happy to work with you on what is best fitting for your family. I am happy to accommodate what your family does for care for your pet(s). I would love to have a conversation to make sure we are both comfortable and allowing the best care.

About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, bearded dragons, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, etc. I look forward to caring for your pet and treating them like my own! I’m working part time at the moment and have flexible hours, so I have plenty of time to care for your pet on a schedule that works for you! I make sure to keep the dog’s schedule as typical as possible and I listen to any instructions that the owner may have for me.

About: I grew up with dogs and have always loved animals! I've been a pet and house sitter for friends and family for over a decade, and I'll show the same care for your pet and space that you do! I work evenings so I would have availability in the morning and early afternoon. I would also be available for pet care full time on the weekends. I will always make sure your pet gets the full attention and care they deserve! Your home will be left just as clean as I found it, and I will treat it with respect.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I currently take care of my parents dog when needed, my best friends new puppy, and have prior experience with senior dog I used to care for. I work fully remote job so I have flexibility throughout the day to care for a dog as well as fenced area to let dog out in. It is just myself in a single family home with a fenced in back yard for all dog sitting needs. I also have a car and easily commute for any in-home calls and jobs.
About: Is your pet looking for a new bff? Do they appreciate the off-key singing of songs featuring their names? Do they enjoy belly rubs and behind-the-ear scratches? As a freelance writer, my schedule is extremely flexible and makes me a perfect fit for pets that might just need a midday walk or drop-in visit. I'm also available for house sitting. Travel can be stressful enough without worrying about your pet or home. I have a great reputation for sending updates and pictures throughout my stay and for ensuring that you come home to a clean house and a happy pet. Message me for more information, and let's schedule a meet and greet!. I can't wait to meet your pets! I set my own work schedule, which means I'm more than happy to take a break to go play with your pet. It also means I'm home most of the day during the work week, so your pet has company while you travel. I prefer to only take care of pets in their own homes. I have a cat at my place and she has only-child syndrome. I have house and pet sat for many of my friends and family in the past. I'm a professional, trustworthy person who is just looking for a little side hustle where I can play with dogs and cats.
About: I am reliable and have a flexible schedule, and can't wait to meet your pet! I've taken care of animals since I was a teenager. Six years ago I adopted a dog and it changed my life. <3 She's now a senior and enjoys her sleep, walks, and toys. I have experience with blind and deaf dogs too. I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I spend most of my days at home and have a flexible schedule to acccommodate your needs. I am comfortable crating your pets and ensure their safety is my top priority. I will take care of your pets like my own, and be sure to follow instructions so you don't have to worry about anything under my care.

About: I've had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, and that hands-on experience is what I bring to every walk. I understand dog body language, pacing, leash manners, and how to read when a dog needs a break or a bit more activity — not from a course, but from years of actually living with dogs day to day. I treat every walk the same way I would for my own dog: attentive, on time, and focused entirely on their safety and comfort for the full duration. Whether your dog is high-energy, a little nervous around new people, or just needs a steady routine, I adjust to what they need rather than running a one-size-fits-all walk. You can expect clear communication before and after every visit, so you always know exactly how things went. My schedule is flexible throughout the day, so dog walking isn't squeezed into a narrow window — it's a real part of my daily routine. That means I can offer consistent mid-morning, afternoon, or early evening walks, and I'm also able to accommodate last-minute requests or changes in timing without it being a scramble. If your schedule shifts week to week, I can usually adjust to match it. Safety is the first thing I think about with every walk. When I arrive, I double-check that all doors and gates are secure before I bring your dog out, and I make sure the leash and collar or harness are properly fitted before we leave — no slipping out mid-walk. I stick to routes I know well, avoid off-leash areas unless specifically asked, and keep a close eye on other dogs, traffic, and anything that could startle or spook your dog. I always carry water on hot days and adjust the pace or length of the walk based on weather and how your dog is doing that day. Before I leave, I make sure your home is exactly as I found it — doors locked, lights as they were, nothing out of place. If anything ever comes up during a walk, you'll hear from me right away, not after the fact.
“Libby is a great sitter! She takes my dog on neighborhood walks or if time and weather permit, adventures to a nearby walking path. She's easy to communicate with and has made me feel at ease while I'm at work! Thanks, libby”

“Christina has been great with our dog, he is scared of new people and she has done so much to make him comfortable and open up to her. Our dog loves his daily walks now”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I could walk. Grew up walking stuffed animals around on a leash just to prove to my parents that I was responsible enough to own one myself. I had two dogs that both lived to 16 so my track record is good I am currently working from home three to four days a week and that allows for me to be flexible with my timing. I can leave the house, let a dog out or just give him/her some extra belly rubs I have a fenced in yard that allows your fur baby to run around freely, but within the home I love to snuggle. Your pets are allowed on furniture and in beds at this household, as long as it’s okay with you.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Pleasant Ridge is $20
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Pleasant Ridge
He was great with Hank and such a great personality! He walked him as requested and even went longer than the time I booked! Most sitters are not getting Hank a good long walk in and Gio has def exceeded expectations, which is very reassuring. I know Hank is in good hands when he's in Gio's care. Def will use him again!

Breanna was fantastic! My husky love her. She was always on time. If\nShe was stuck on traffic or something.She immediately texted me and kept me updated. She\nWas very flexible when I needed to make small changes in the schedule Timing. She was just very reliable and very easy to work with.
Abbey is our regular dog walker, so this review is in reference to an ongoing commitment/arrangement. Abbey has been excellent with our elder dog. She is reliable, communicative, and trustworthy. We have had no issues or concerns. We appreciate her and would recommend her services to others!

Jessica was a joy to work with. We were looking for a person we can trust to help with our cavapoo during our wedding ceremony, as well as drive our Melvin to daycare. She was professional, kind, and so easy going. She is very easy to communicate with and we are so grateful for her!

Dan is awesome! My GSD grew to love him really quickly. He handles her on walks with no problem and always makes sure she gets plenty of attention and exercise. He’s also very responsive and does his best to fit us into his schedule. The detailed Rover cards he sends after each walk are a great bonus too! 🐾
