About: I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and plenty of love for you pets. I've cared for dogs and cats of all sizes and friends and family often trust me with their pets when they're away. I work Monday-Friday full time, but I have flexibility to work from home so my schedule is flexible. I'm happy to arrange my schedule as needed. I am easily adaptable to different environments so I will stick to ground rules set by the client. Strong communicator so will make sure everything goes smoothly.
“Philsung has been amazing! I really appreciated how I got a full report after each walk letting me know what happened. 10/10 would highly recommend. I will definitely be using Philsung again when my regular walker is away.”
About: Hi! I'm a local dog lover in Bergen County, NJ, and I know that dogs are much more than pets — they're family. As a reactive dog owner myself, I've learned firsthand how important patience, consistency, and understanding are when building trust with a dog. I understand that every dog has their own personality, comfort level, and triggers. Whether your pup is outgoing and playful or needs a little extra space and time to feel comfortable around others, I believe in respecting their boundaries and helping them feel safe. I want you to feel confident that your dog is in caring, responsible hands. Whether it's a neighborhood walk or a drop-in visit while you're away, I'll treat your dog with kindness and respect, follow your instructions, and do my best to make every visit a positive experience. I'm happy to learn about your dog's routine, what makes them comfortable, and anything I should know to help them feel at ease. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I have a flexible schedule on weekdays and weekends, allowing me to arrange dog walks and drop-in visits around your dog's needs. I'm happy to discuss recurring visits or occasional bookings and work with you to establish a routine that suits your schedule and your pet. Your dog's safety, comfort, and trust are my priorities. Before a booking, I'll ask about your dog's temperament, walking habits, triggers, and daily routine so I can provide care that suits their needs. For dogs who are nervous or reactive, I understand the importance of patience, personal space, and avoiding unnecessary close encounters with other dogs. During walks, I'll stay alert to our surroundings, use the agreed-upon leash or harness, and choose a comfortable route based on your dog's needs. During drop-in visits, I'll follow your instructions for feeding, fresh water, bathroom breaks, and companionship. I'll also make sure doors and gates are secure before leaving. If I notice anything unusual or have a concern, I'll contact you promptly. I want every owner to feel comfortable trusting me with their dog, and I'll do my best to make each visit safe, calm, and positive.
“This is the first time I needed someone to take care of Charlie in our new location and I was a little bit nervous about the details with getting in the building and navigating the details of the doors and everything, but Emma had no trouble and Charlie was absolutely fine (of course he was!) I will definitely plan to book her again.”
“Xavier was great! He was on time and patient. I have two dogs with special needs and Xavier took care of them with no issue. He sent plenty of pictures and they clearly were very well taken care of. He was communicative and very helpful!”
About: After working at an animal hospital for three years, and volunteering at animal shelters I knew that I was meant to work with dogs. Their time on this planet is shorter than ours so it's my mission to make their time on this planet a happy, loving, and nurturing one! I have experience in dog handling from working with groomers and working at an animal hospital. I also help pet owners learn how they can improve the quality of life of their dog's life by removing chemicals and toxins from their home. Before moving to the Hudson Valley I lived in the city where I would walk dogs and bathe them for a living, so I am thrilled to be able to do that again in my new home!
About: I treat every pet like my own, with love and patience. I have experience caring for puppies, senior pets, and everything in between, and I’m great at making animals feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m currently available on sun,mon,tue (whole day) and wed before 2pm. My schedule is flexible on those dates. I do accept same day schedule. :) I care for pets by keeping them comfortable, safe, and happy. I follow their usual routines, give them plenty of love and attention, and make sure they get the exercise, playtime, and rest they need. Whether in my home or a client’s, I create a calm, caring environment so they feel at ease.
“Randi was great - was a pretty last minute booking for me and 1st time using her - she offered to come for a meet and greet - Chassis loved her! She kept me well informed of arrival and walk details and always communicated throughout the process - would definitely recommend!”
About: I have over ten years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and ages. I’ve helped with walking, feeding, bathing, medications, and reinforcing basic training routines. Pet care fits easily into my routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets consistent attention, playtime, walks, and care throughout the day and week. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priority. I follow all care instructions, maintain a clean environment, supervise interactions closely, and ensure pets feel secure, calm, and well cared for.
“We had such a wonderful experience with Gawon walking our two dogs! She was always on time, reliable, and so caring with both of them. It gave us great peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We really appreciated her communication and the care she showed our pups. We would absolutely recommend her and will definitely be using her again!”
“Megan is amazing with our dachshund mix, Mr. Harold. He has some separation anxiety and her weekly walks with him have been so amazing on the days we’re in-office. I can’t recommend Megan enough!!”

I’m so happy I found Christine! She is incredibly nice, flexible, and accommodating. My dog absolutely loves her afternoon walks, and I love knowing she’s getting a nice, long walk with someone who genuinely cares about her. Having someone so trustworthy, reliable, and close to home has made my days so much easier and gives me such peace of mind knowing my dog is in good hands. She’s an absolute pleasure to work with, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Highly recommend!
This is the first time I needed someone to take care of Charlie in our new location and I was a little bit nervous about the details with getting in the building and navigating the details of the doors and everything, but Emma had no trouble and Charlie was absolutely fine (of course he was!) I will definitely plan to book her again.
We needed a sitter at the last minute and couldn't have been luckier to find Phil! Every visit came with a thoughtful update, so we always knew Parker was happy, well fed, and getting plenty of exercise and attention. Parker also needed medication, and Phil gave it reliably every time, which gave us real peace of mind. It was clear Parker was in caring, dependable hands. We'll definitely be booking Phil again and highly recommend him!

It gave us great peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We really appreciated her communication and the care she showed our pups. We would absolutely recommend her and will definitely be using her again!
Jenny was amazing! We have a fearful dog and we wanted to make sure our dog was comfortable with the dog walker before we went on vacation. Even though it was a last minute request, Jenny came to meet our dog and they got along great. While we were away she took great care of our dogs and always sent pictures of all the fun they were having. I highly recommend Jenny!
Emily took great care of our dog while we were away!! The communication and care was amazing! Given that the doggy was not feeling his best, she helped him out and updated us how he was doing! And was creative when we hit a snag with the access to our house! Would recommend her care!

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 Ridgefield Park. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 .
walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
