“Thank you for taking my puppies out to walk and taking time to play with them. Thank you keeping me updated after each walk and making sure they eat and stay hydrated! Really gave me piece of mind knowing they were being taken care of! We will definitely reach back out for more walks with Raegan.”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, as have my friends and family, so I’ve been surrounded by them for years! Both dogs and cats. More recently, I have been cat sitting just because two of my best friends have cats (4 in total) so whenever they go away, I jump on the opportunity to watch them! I’m comfortable spending quality time, feeding, and playing with them; keeping litter boxes fresh; and even cleaning up if that’s something that’s necessary. My family dog is part pit so she’s very strong-chested which makes walking her a challenge but that just means I have the ability to walk a challenging dog. I’ve learned to slow down on my walks with her lately because those walks are really the only time she gets to explore the world so I let her take her time and I’ll let your furry friends do the same 🐾 I know how much our pets mean to us, so I’ll always treat yours like family and make sure they get plenty of love and attention on my watch! I’m currently working freelance, which means I don’t have a set schedule and can work around pretty much anything. I will have plenty of time to walk dogs/do pop-ins at any time of the day, even if you are in need of some help last-minute! I am very attentive when caring for the pets in my life! They all have their individual needs. When I'm walking my dog, I am always watching our surroundings & will cross the street if another dog is coming our way to keep some distance, especially since my girl is sometimes reactive. With the cats, I also pay close attention to things... like eating habits for example. The one friend I catsit for has three cats: one of which is picky to begin with and the other two who like to steal her food so I keep a watchful eye every time they eat to make sure everyone is getting to eat in peace!
“Liz is great …..Jasper was acting up a little but she was able to calm him and make him feel secure….I will definitely hire her again…..and again….I felt Jasper was in good hands and I felt calm and secure too… Thank You Liz”

About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life I've had to attend dog behavioral training classes with multiple dogs over the years of owning them with family. As an adult I've never had the privilege of owning my own dog only cats. But I've always been the one to help family members when they go away walks & pet siting. I work in the elder care system but trying to find a balance of Harmony. With my active lifestyle and fond affection for The Great outdoors I miss the company of dogs I don't have the means or time to own my own I would like an opportunity to be able to explore new areas of my local neighborhood and getting exercise. I do care for a cat though, she is not my own. But she is welcomed in my apartment she owns this house. And I only just pay the rent.
About: Hello my name is Gia! I am currently a surgery tech at an animal shelter. I have always enjoyed caring for my own as well as family and friends pets to help out when needed. Because of my job I am experienced with all sorts of animals and their medical needs, temperaments and personalities. I am fear free certified which just means I am able to adapt my care approach better for all sorts of situations! I’ve always had a love for caring for animals weather they're my own or belong to someone else no matter how tedious or difficult their specific care may be. I enjoy dedicating my time to providing care for others animals in and outside of work, I can just never get enough. I do currently work full time so unfortunately I'm only able to care for others pets on the weekends as well as spend some time with my own. I will treat all animals like they are my own providing the absolute best care possible. Not only are you trusting me with your pet, but your home as well which is why I’d take extra precautions to make sure everything is set and secure not only for you but your pet.

About: I love all animals, but dogs are my favorite. Nothing in the world makes me happier than spending time with a pet. If the owner can't be around once in a while there is no need for the dog to be lonely. That is why I make the perfect dog sitter, I treat each dog like my very own pet. I care for them and their individual needs the way I would hope someone would care for my dog if I weren't around. My profession includes making my own schedule which allows me the flexibility to care for pets in their owners absence. I try to keep my radius small so that I can stop by every couple of hours for a potty break and some time outside or for some snuggles. I have a dog and cat of my own and take their care very seriously. Both get an abundance of love and snuggles. Our dog goes out multiple times a day- while we don't have a fenced in yard we do have a lot of space and availability for walks at the park a block away.
“Mary was fantastic and went the extra mile to look after our four-legged children. She was very responsive and kept me updated on any developments. Would definitely reach out again in the future:) Thanks Mary!”

About: I have checked in on family members dogs and cats each time they are away. I promise to love your fur babies and make sure they are played with, walked, and bellies full. Currently serving at a restaurant typically working 4:30-10pm 3 nights a week. Recent college grad looking for my next role in environmental policy. I currently live with my roommates cat and I have lived with my cat at my parents house for 13 years. I have experience administering pet medicine and am available for feeding in the morning and before/after I am done my serving job.
“Chelsea and John showered our pup with love, attention, and care. Their photos and messages let us vacation without any worries about how she was doing. Thank you, Chelsea and John!”

About: What sets me apart is my calm and gentle demeanor, especially beneficial for anxious or shy pets. I create a peaceful and reassuring environment, helping them feel safe and comfortable. I'm skilled at reading their body language and adapting my approach to their individual needs. I'm also very patient and understanding, giving them the time they need to adjust. I'm experienced in creating a safe and comfortable space, and I am very good at slow introductions. Pet care is a top priority in my daily and weekly routine. I believe in providing consistent care, so I establish regular feeding and walk schedules. I'm also flexible and adapt to each pet's unique needs. Throughout the day, I monitor their behavior and ensure they have fresh water and playtime. I genuinely love spending time with animals and providing them with the best possible care. My approach to pet care is built on providing a safe, happy, and healthy environment for every animal. Here's what that looks like: * Routine and Consistency: I understand the importance of routine, so I strictly follow feeding schedules and exercise plans provided by owners. * Personalized Attention: Every pet is unique, and I tailor my care to their individual needs. Some dogs love fetch, while others prefer gentle cuddles. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality and preferences. For example, with shy cats, I use slow, gentle movements and let them approach me on their own terms.

About: I've had dogs growing up, normally two at a time, and have helped take care of multiple family member's and friends' dogs over the years. I'm studying Pre-Veterinary Science in school, and have been working as the animal manager in a pet store for over 3 years! I can take animals on walks, care for them daily and do check up visits to make sure they're doing great. I'm comfortable with all types of dogs, cats, and any other kind of animals and am excited to begin helping your pets! I work part time at a pet store, but that still leaves lots of time for me to spend with own animals and helping out with all yours! I always check the water, fill up on food and give lots of attention. Two of my cats take medicine daily, so I am comfortable administering almost everything. For cats, I scoop out the litter boxes once a day, more if necessary. Dogs get taken out at least 3 times a day, more if necessary also.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Prospect Park is $20
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Prospect Park
Chelsea and John were great. They were very kind to our dog and asked pertinent questions. We had a trial walk in the neighborhood, so that they could see our dog's typical behavior. We felt totally at ease with John and Chelsea taking her out for afternoon exercise. We will definitely contact the two of them in the future.

Theo has been an amazing walker with my Newfoundland Tiny! He’s incredibly communicative and on time for every walk. On days when Tiny wasn’t feeling up to a long walk, Theo found ways to get him moving in the backyard and brought him back happy and ready to chill out.

Karen was fantastic! She was always punctual, dependable, and so patient with my anxious senior dog. She took the time to earn his trust and never rushed him, which meant so much to me. It was clear that she genuinely cared about his comfort and well-being. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in her care and appreciated the updates along the way. I would absolutely book with Karen again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and reliable dog walker.

Kim was awesome I needed a last minute dog walker and she responded right away. She was very thoughtful and considerate asking questions about my dog. She kept me notified and sent pictures and she gad a great disposition and personality!! I never met her before and trusted her in my home with my dog and she made me feel reassured and confident I highly recommend her!

Barbara is an excellent dog walker and we will go back to her time and time again. She works very well with our shy border collie and took the time to get to know him (3 visits!) before our first actual paid visit. She is very punctual and communicative which we really appreciate.

Nathan is the exact person you wanted taking care of your pets. He would take little Nathan out for us everyday at lunch time and my dog looked forward to his daily trips with one of his best buds. He always treated Nathan kindly and I never had to worry about anything. Not only was he professional but he became a crucial part of our day to day. I’d gladly take his services any day. 10/10 walker. 1000/10 person!

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.

- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise

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.
