About: Hi, I’m Ev :) I enjoy collecting vinyls, hiking, and cooking. I have experience in dog and cat sitting. I consistently dog-sit a beautiful Beagle named Felix, whom I love and treat as if he were my dog. He is turning 11 in a few weeks, and I have been dog-sitting him since he was 3 years old. There are a few photos in my profile with Felix. I celebrate his birthday every year and spend some holidays with him as I have developed a close bond with him. I have more time now, and I would love to expand my services to more people around northern New Jersey and care for more animals. I have my own 4-legged baby at home named Mango; he is also pictured in my profile, the small little blond dog. He is a Peruvian Inca Orchid mix rescue from Peru; he's really sweet, trained, and is friendly with other animals; he just likes to sniff them first :) Under my care, your dog will be given plenty of attention and love. I work from home, so I can be with your pet all day. I also have a fenced-in yard, so your dog can have as many potty breaks as needed or to simply enjoy the outdoors. I would walk your pet twice a day, morning and night, for a 20 minute walk minimum; if the weather is nice, then it extends to 30 minutes each time sometimes even an hour. They will be let out multiple times a day for potty breaks. I provide a playful environment for any dog; I have plenty of toys and treats for them. I also have a fenced-in large yard so that they have plenty of space to run around. I am also very cautious and observant when having a dog at the house or walking them; they will be supervised at all times.

About: If you give me the opportunity to care for your pet, you'll feel at ease knowing I'll take care of it as if it were my own. I'll give it all the love and attention it needs to make you feel happy. Right now I'd like to dedicate myself solely to animals and their care. I have every day of the week free to dedicate myself to them. For me, all animals deserve the same treatment and care. I always give them my best, no matter the occasion. I will always give you all my love, attention and you will never lack my care.

About: Ever since college, I’ve enjoyed pet sitting small lap dog size to giant Great Danes. I first started to find a running buddy and then it turned into a fun job for me. It even helped me buy my wife her engagement ring! I own an aussiedoodle who is always active and have learned quite a bit through dog ownership. I’ve helped several neighbors in various cities and can provide references from some awesome families. I work as an at home teacher so my schedule is very flexible. I’m able to provide drop ins, dog walking, and house sit so your pets can feel safe in their space. I’m very good at following directions and leaving spaces the same if not better than I find them. I plan to communicate as often as requested and am willing to help with clean up.

About: I’ve volunteered at animal shelters. I have shadowed vets, worked as a vet assistant and did a study abroad getting hands on work as a vet in multiple countries. My friends, roommates and family rely on me to pet sit for them all the time. I have a dog and 3 cats of my own one being an asthma kitty so I’m very familiar with taking care of animals even with disabilities. I graduated college and currently work from home so my schedule is very flexible. Starting in August I will have classes Monday and Wednesdays as I will be starting grad school. I have 3 cats and a dog to keep your fur baby company. I can crate your dog if needed and can do anything needed that your fur baby may need.

About: I have experience caring for dogs of different ages and personalities, including my own. I’m especially comfortable with small breeds and senior dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I’ve cared for my own senior dog with health needs, including giving medication, keeping an eye on any changes, and making sure they’re comfortable and safe. That’s made me really detail-oriented and tuned in to each dog’s routine. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and I always follow instructions closely. Whether it’s a walk or a drop-in, I want your dog to feel calm, cared for, and happy, and for you to feel at ease too. Pet care fits well into my schedule, and I’m available for walks and drop-in visits throughout the week and on weekends. I’m able to plan around scheduled bookings and keep my availability updated so pet parents can count on consistent, dependable care. I provide attentive care in both my home and a client’s home, always following the pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions. This includes feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and administering medication if needed. I prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency, and make sure pets are not left alone longer than necessary. For walks, I focus on safe, structured outings that match each dog’s energy level and needs. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident and connected while they’re away.

About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life. Often watch others dogs over night, or come by for walks and feedings when owners are away. Good with animals of all sizes. Currently my schedule is very open, available in the mornings and afternoons for walks or visits. Can also be available to watch dogs overnight if needed. My home is an apartment right next to several parks. Perfect for smaller dogs or big dogs who need exercise outside. Can also travel to you.

About: I absolutely love caring for animals. I used to be a receptionist at a vet clinic and love meeting new pets. I am a dog owner myself, which has allowed me to learn more about dogs and their individual needs. I have experience administering oral medications. I have also learned to figure out if something is wrong, or if they need medical care. I will make sure to care for your pet as if it was my own. I know it’s hard leaving our pets so please let me know what I can do to make it as comfortable as possible for you and your pet. I recently moved to New Jersey and I’m currently unemployed. I am a mom to a toddler, and I’m unable to do any long term overnight stays, but may make an exception if it’s only a day. I can feed your pet, administer medication, take them on walks or just simply hang out so they are not lonely while you are gone.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, and I take great pride on how my babies are treated they are part of the family and while your pets are in my care they’ll be part of mine for a little while so you can have fun and feel relaxed knowing your pet is having a great time just like you! I’m currently only working part time so they’ll be plenty of time for potty breaks and some fetch! I love to make pet friendly treats for all my furry guest! I try my best to ask my client what their normal day routine is with their pet and I try my best to stick with it. It helps a lot of the furry babies feel comfortable knowing I know all the silly details that can be a big deal for them.

About: I have been working with dogs for on and off for 13 years. I love all animals and go above and beyond for all of them. I enjoy walking, running, and hiking and would love to take your dogs with me. If your dog is not able to walk, run, or hike then I would not mind hanging with them in the yard. I also spoil any dog I am around with treats and all the toys I can (as long as it is ok with the owners of course). If you have any more questions about me please do not hesitate to ask me, I am very open and I truly do not know what else to say here. I'm currently working full time at a personal injury firm in Paramus but can take care of your puppies before and after work and on the weekends if need be. I can't have pets in my apt, I am very sorry for the inconvenience this might cause. But I can always come to you and your animals.

Morgan was an absolute gem. I wish I could give her more than 5 stars. I booked her for dog walks last minute while I was already out of town and my sister with little kids was watching my dog but struggling to do walks. Not only was Morgan prompt with responding, she was responsible and thoughtful. A great communicator. My dog Bolognese loved her. She even spent time one night helping my sister in finding her dog who had gotten out. I cannot speak highly enough of her, she’s the best.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Prospect Park

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Prospect Park is $23 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $30 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 27,436 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Prospect Park. 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 Prospect Park. 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 a map of the walking route, 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 Prospect Park 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 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 Prospect Park. On Rover:

  • 83% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 88% 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 Meet & Greet.

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
