“Eilleen was great with our cockapoo Wesley - he seemed very excited to see her for his check-ins! She was also super helpful and understanding when it came to scheduling around my new job, which we’ve really appreciated.”
“I’ve been using her dog walking service for several months, and she’s been outstanding. She’s dependable, attentive, and treats my dog like her own. I really appreciate her updates and photos after every walk. She’s far more than a dog walker — she truly loves and understands my dogs. I can always feel her kindness and patience in the way she treats them.”
“Monica is so wonderful - she takes exceptional care of my dog and I trust her implicitly. She’s incredibly thoughtful and meticulous, and a wonderful dog photographer as well!! So grateful for all she does”
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.
“Any words of praise I leave for Giselle are nowhere near enough! She is reliable, responsive and flexible. She is so great with my dog - managing his energy, and getting him to cooperate. She is caring and kind, and really wants to connect with the pet and the pet parent. My dog always comes back from walks with her tired and ready for a long nap. He's so excited to see her every single time! I trust Giselle completely - she's even taken my dog out and had access to my house when I wasn't home. Highly recommend her.”
About: I have had dogs my entire life. Currently have two dogs, one is 13 and the other is 5. Both very well trained so they don’t need a leash and they don’t pee in the house, they are also super friendly ! Also always have energy to play with the dogs in the park and let them run around ! They also love car rides so I do that pretty often. I currently work overnights from 2am - 10:30am so I am free throughout the day. Although weekends are possible we just have to discuss it beforehand. Would prefer if you brought the dogs food or certain treats they eat. Mine are picky so I guess yours might be too. Your rules I just follow them. My dogs usually eat twice a day and get treats after every walk.

“Lisbeth has been a wonderful addition to our family of pet caretakers! She is always on time and polite, and Ravioli always has a good walk- looking forward to having Lisbeth help us for a long time!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs for years through family, friends, and people in my neighborhood. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, boarding, giving lots of attention, and keeping up with each pet’s usual routine. I know every dog has a different personality, so I try to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and I’m available seven days a week. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day. I do my best to keep pets on their normal routine and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in my home or in their owner’s home. I pay close attention to instructions, routines, feeding schedules, and any special needs. I keep a clean, calm environment, make sure doors and leashes are secure, and give pets plenty of patience, affection, and supervision.
“Tiana was wonderful not only was she quick to respond but was also very professional from start to finish. I will be using her services again and will be recommending her to family and friends.”
About: I’m a lifelong pet owner and have experience taking care of both dogs and cats. Over the past six years, I’ve been responsible for feeding, walking, playing with, and providing general care and attention to my own dog. These last few years I’ve also pet sat for my family members and friends, taking care of their dogs and cats. I love getting to know each pet’s personality and ensuring that they feel well taken care of and loved! I am currently a student at Iowa State University, but everyday I have breaks or long stretches of time where I can drop in on and take care of your pets! I always ensure that I go over with any rules/boundaries with clients and to ask about any additional care towards the pet (like administering medicine). I like to know whatever works best for you and your pets!
About: Hi! I have always been around animals, for example caring for my own dogs and my family’s dogs! I genuinely do enjoy caring for them, and as a Rutgers University student on the pre-med track who has done many hours of clinical volunteering and work, I am very responsible and attentive. I have experience with feeding, walking, playtime, cleanup, and making sure pets feel the upmost comfort and safety while their owners are away. Further, I am very experienced in working in fast paced environments, which has made me more dependable and calm under pressure. I understand how important it is to communicate, so I am happy to provide updates and photos to help owners feel reassured while away! I am very excited to meet your pet(s)! I am currently off for summer break from University, and my schedule is very open! I am available about everyday and from anytime between 12pm-10pm! Your pet’s safety is my top priority! I understand every pet varies in routine, and I am ready to follow all owner instructions as needed. I am very attentive during walks and outdoor time, as I always provide secure handling and make sure the environment is safe. Again, I am very aware that communication is important, and I am happy provide periodic updates and photos if needed.

About: I've been taking care of animals since I was 5 yrs old, owning cats, dogs, birds, fish, a python, guinea pig, and a blue poison dart frog. I went to ranch camp in Nebraska to ride and take care of horses. For sitting, I've looked after dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, lizards, and rabbits. I've worked overnight at a kennel for a year which included walking dogs, playing with cats, feeding, and cleaning up: blood, vomit, urine, and stool. I worked at a Veterinary hospital for 8 years. I am NOT a Vet, but I am comfortable with medicating pets, post surgery care, seniors and pets with disabilities. I've saved field mice, chipmunks, squirrels, raccoons, salamanders, and bees. During the spring and summer, I house and nourish caterpillars until they turn into butterflies. Then they are released into the wild. I am available during the week, weekends, and holidays, and would be more than happy to accommodate your schedule. Occasionally, I have my own appointments or family events, but will work with you to avoid any scheduling conflicts. I believe that trust, love, compassion, transparency and common sense are all required in animal care. Both you and your fur baby should be comfortable and trust your sitter. If time allows, I prefer meet and greets to ensure a proper fit. If a pet isn't comfortable with a sitter while their parents are around, they most likely won't be comfortable while their parents are away. I believe it is important to acknowledge and understand your pet's body language and needs. A pet is not just an animal, it's your family, and should be treated as such with care and respect. I will comply with your feeding/relief/medication schedule, because it's important to keep your baby on their own routine to avoid confusion, stress, and bowel issues. I currently have a male senior cat who enjoys being an only child, so I am unable to care for other pets at my house, but am happy to take care of your munchkins in your own beautiful home.

Review 3 Katherine never disappoints. This is not my first time booking with her, and each time she delivers the same high level of care and attention. Picasso clearly enjoys being with her, and that says everything. Dependable, kind, and professional—I couldn’t ask for more.
I’ve been using her dog walking service for several months, and she’s been outstanding. She’s dependable, attentive, and treats my dog like her own. I really appreciate her updates and photos after every walk. She’s far more than a dog walker — she truly loves and understands my dogs. I can always feel her kindness and patience in the way she treats them.
Lyz has been such a pleasure to work with. She's been great with our 8 month old boxer Ruby. Shes kept great communication with us filling us in how Rubys doing, asks for guidance on Rubys behavior since shes still in her pup stage, and follows instructions well. So happy to have found her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Prospect Park on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 27,457 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 your 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 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 Prospect Park.

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:
- 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.
