About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and I truly treat every pup like family. Whether it’s an energetic dog who loves playtime and long walks or a senior who prefers a slower pace and extra snuggles, I’m attentive to each dog’s unique needs and routine. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, and making sure they get plenty of exercise, enrichment, and affection. My goal is always to provide a calm, loving environment where your dog feels safe, comfortable, and completely at home while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent supervision and attention throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, daycare, and walks, and I structure my day around the pets in my care to ensure they receive regular potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. Your dog won’t be left alone for long periods and will get plenty of interaction and affection. When pets stay in my home, they become part of the family. I provide a calm, cozy environment where they’re free to relax, play, and feel comfortable. All outdoor time is fully supervised and on-leash to ensure safety at all times. Walks, potty breaks, and fresh air are built into the daily routine. I also have a friendly dog at home who genuinely loves the company of other dogs. I always prioritize safe, positive introductions and monitor interactions to make sure everyone feels comfortable. If your pup prefers space or slower socialization, I can easily adjust to meet their needs. In a client’s home, I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible — including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and favorite habits — so they feel secure in their own environment. My goal in any setting is to provide loving, attentive care where your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for.

Amy was very attentive to our reactive dog. She definitely helped us out during a difficult stretch where we had little opportunity to walk our dog. Great job!

About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for both my own dog and others’ pets. I have a Yorkie-Bichon mix named Frankie, and taking care of her has taught me how important patience, routine, and making sure every pet feels safe and loved. I genuinely love spending time with animals. Whether it’s going on walks, playing, or simply keeping them company, I enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality. I love dogs, cats (even though I’m allergic! 🥲), rabbits (especially my friend’s whose name is Cosito), and really all animals. You can trust that I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own and make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I recently graduated with my bachelor’s degree and am currently doing more schooling by completing nursing prerequisites. Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule because it allows me to do something I genuinely love while continuing my education. My classes are Monday through Wednesday in the mornings, so I’m available in the afternoons, evenings, and some weekends. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for by sticking to their routine as closely as possible. In a client’s home, I’ll follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, fresh water, walks, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. I do understand every pet is different, so I’ll be patient and make sure they feel comfortable while you’re away. I will always send pictures as well!

About: Hi! My name is Rosie and I have been caring for pets for friends, neighbors, and families for many years. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, overnight stays, and giving pets the attention and care they deserve while their owners are away. Outside of pet sitting, I have years of babysitting experience, a Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science from Seton Hall University, and I am currently in nursing school. My background has taught me responsibility, patience, and attention to detail. I’m dependable, caring, and will treat your pets like they are my own. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you feel comfortable while away! I am currently available all summer with a very flexible schedule and would love to help care for your pets while you’re away on vacations, working long hours, or just need an extra helping hand. I am available for drop-ins, walks, and overnight stays, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine including feeding times, walks, playtime, medications, and plenty of love and attention. I will be starting nursing school again in September, so my availability may change slightly, but I will always communicate ahead of time and do my best to continue providing reliable, consistent care. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home. I will always treat your pets like they are my own by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I am respectful of every owner’s home and will follow all instructions, routines, feeding schedules, and special requests to provide the best care possible.

Kristina has been there for me and my pup a few times now and has been awesome. Completely reliable and a true dog lover. Goes above and beyond bringing in packages and letting me know when my fish tank alarm started beeping. I have had to be away from home a lot recently and it’s been easier to do knowing Kristina was looking after my dog.

About: My friends and family call me Tom Care-a-lot, Tom the Mom, and The Dog Whisperer. I am often told I am too nice, but sometimes kindness and patience can be what someone needs to be a good caregiver. I have worked at East Memphis Pet Hospital & Resort as a Daycare and Kennel worker, and occasionally perform Vet Tech duties such as administering medication, which has taught me a lot about caring for multiple dogs and adapting to each dogs' individual needs. I have also worked for GoDog West Nashville and Morris Animal Inn. To be responsible for another life sometimes means that you have to be flexible, I understand if something comes up last minute, it happens; I will be as flexible as you and your dogs' needs. Your dog will be in good-hearted, caring hands while you are doing what you need to do. Your dogs and their home will be safe, you can leave it to me. I will respond to booking requests with 12-24 hours if not immediately. If something doesn’t work in my schedule I will let you know ahead of time unless there is an emergency. I work Freelance from home (remote), so my hours are flexible. I have obligations with other people and clients but I will make any booking done through the app, if they are accepted and scheduled. Failure to contact about a booking before service will result in a cancellation and YOU will be charged a cancellation fee and will take all responsibility for your pet(s). I treat them with respect, I will not hit or discipline them physically, if you instruct me to do so I will decline and cancel the stay or appointment. I do not tolerate abuse or neglect. I will clean up if they have an accident and my motto is to “leave the house roughly in the same state you came/found it in”. I will use your amenities like washer/dryer/sink/shower/dishwasher if I am staying multiple days or overnight. I will do my best to clean up after myself but I cannot conform to all expectations of perfection. Make sure there are no illegal drugs or weapons in the residence (weapons must be away and sealed in a secure location, if any are in the residence) failure to comply with this will result in an immediate cancellation and it will be on YOU.

About: My journey with animals started over 13 years ago with my family cat, who taught me the importance of subtle body language and the specialized care that any pet requires. This lifelong bond grew into a passion for helping others, leading me to become the go-to sitter for my neighbors' dogs and cats for several years. What sets me apart: • Multi-Species Fluency: I currently look after both a cat and a dog daily. I understand a dual dynamic and know how to balance the high-energy needs of a dog with the boundaries and quiet requirements of a cat. • Reliability & Trust: My neighbors have trusted me with their home keys and their furry family members for years. I pride myself on being punctual, following specific feeding/medication instructions to the letter, and keeping a tidy space. • I know what it’s like to be in your shoes: As a pet owner myself, I also have looked for sitters and know the level of care and attentiveness that I seek for. It’s a classic example of upholding the standards that I want to see myself As a hybrid employee, my schedule is more flexible and can be naturally structured around consistent walking and feeding times. My pet care responsibilities are a priortiy In your home, I prioritize security and maintaining your pet's sense of normalcy. Whether it’s rigorous playtime for dogs or quiet companionship for cats, I provide consistent updates and photos so you can see your pet is happy, safe, and loved. I treat every home with respect and every pet like they’re my own because I get it. I’ve been in your shoes as someone looking for a sitter

Jake helped us with mid-day visits for our dog while we were away. He made sure she got outside for playtime (even in the rain), had fresh water afterward, and was settled back in before leaving. He was very friendly and responsive, and our cat enjoyed a little attention from him too, which was appreciated! We were grateful to have Jake's kind care this past week.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Readington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Readington on Rover is $24.42 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 5,566 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Readington. 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 Readington. 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 Readington.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 Readington. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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.
