About: Let me paws to tell you a little about myself! ☺️🐾❤️ My name is Merri. Since 2019, I have been a professional pet sitter, dog walker, and house sitter. I am Fear Free certified and have completed a course in Pet First Aid & CPR. My goal is always to maintain safety and comfort for your babies, and I always have treats to share with the pets I care for. I have cared for small and large dogs, from the littlest Chihuahua with the biggest personality to the goofiest gentle giant Bernie. I love cats, and will care for them like my own! I have experience caring for birds, bunnies, hamsters, reptiles, and guinea pigs! Here are some of the services I provide: - Drop Ins & Dog Walks: 30 minute visits 🥰 - Medication Administration (Including insulin injections & subacute fluids!) 🩺 - House sitting & overnight care (Extended Stays also available!) 🏠 - Experience with seniors, puppies/kittens under one year old, special needs pets, and multiple pets. 🫶🏻 - Day Trips to local parks 🏞️ & the beach. 🏖️ - Free bath for overnight care clients! 🛁 - Plant care 🪴 & mail retrieval. 📫 - Light housekeeping 🧹 & errand running. 🛒 I know the stress that comes from leaving your loved one with a new sitter or walker for the first time, so I would be happy to schedule a free meet and greet! I have very flexible availability, as I am a Psychology and Pre-Nursing student, and will work with you in any way I possibly can, even on short notice. Caring for your pets will always be my number one priority. I will be flexible to meet your needs and work with your unique schedule. I work on fostering a trusting, caring relationship with my clients. I am an open book, and the safety and security of your pets and your home is something I place incredible value on. Transparency and honesty is incredibly important for both me and you. I will care for your babies as if they were my own, because they’re family to me! In return, I just ask for honesty if you have cameras indoors. If you have questions or need extra reassurance, I am here for you. I know it is stressful and scary to trust a stranger with your family member, so I value getting to know my clients and offer meet and greets prior to booking services! 😊

Every visit includes exercise, attention, fun, and treats (owner permitting!), and I'll stick to your pup's routine so they stay happy and healthy.

About: I love ALL animals and have cared for all types from small mammals to reptiles and felines! I believe in treating pets like family members and understand each has their own personality! I grew up with dogs /pets my entire life from pit bulls to pugs and rabbits to frogs. I love to be active and out in nature with my four rescue dogs! I am experienced in senior care and young pets alike. I also have skills with basic training of all age. I can't wait to meet your baby and provide them with entertainment and enrichment while you are away! I am currently working on my master's degree in an online program and work part time, both responsibilities warrant flexible hours that I am able to schedule myself. This will allow me to give your baby my full focus, attention, and loving! I have a fenced in yard and a basement that can act as a separation if need be. I am reliable and physically strong and love to play and cuddle with pets that want to or am just as able to give them the space to try to have them gain my trust. I am also experienced in bathing large, anxious dogs.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have always had a genuine love for animals. I currently have a dog of my own, so I understand firsthand that pets are more than just animals — they’re family. Growing up with dogs has taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, attention, and, of course, plenty of love and belly rubs! Whether your pup needs a fun walk, some companionship, or simply someone they can feel comfortable with while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same care and respect I give my own dog. My goal is to make every walk a happy, safe, and enjoyable experience for your four-legged family member. 🐶❤️ I currently work full time and have weekends and evenings available. So drop ins for those who work longs shifts I can easily handle. Looking forward to meeting new clients I have a nice size dog park at my apartment complex. But serving at the clients residence would be better so the dog feels safer and more comfortable

I currently am booking drop in visits for dogs 3X a day for pet sitting and regular dog walking. I also offer overnight services at your own home for pet sitting and drop in visits for cats and other furry friends. All pets are taken care of in your own home with updates and pictures of your fur baby. Doors are locked back up after services and key location/code are strictly kept confidential.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and currently care for four cats, including two kittens from a mother cat I rescued, rehabilitated, and had spayed. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, medications, behavioral quirks, and providing patient, attentive care. I also care for a bearded dragon, so I understand the importance of routines, habitat care, and attention to detail for pets with specific needs. I have hands-on experience caring for a variety of animals and personalities. I prioritize safety, consistency, and treating every pet as if they were my own. I work independently with a flexible schedule while attending school mostly online and one class Monday night, which gives me the ability to plan my days around pet care. This allows me to provide reliable check-ins, attentive visits, and consistent routines. Daily care matters to me, from scooping litter and maintaining clean feeding areas to giving my bearded dragon his supplements and proper habitat care. I make sure pets get regular playtime, calm downtime, and their own space, while staying attentive to routines and any changes in behavior.

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I understand the unique needs of each dog and tailor my approach to fit their personality and routine. I am skilled in creating a safe, comfortable environment, managing feeding schedules, administering medications if needed, and providing plenty of exercise, play, and mental stimulation. I genuinely care about each dog’s happiness and well-being, ensuring they receive all the love and attention they deserve while you’re away. I’m currently working full time. I am available on the weekend so pet parents can get a nice little get away and nights as well. Caring for pets mean that involves adapting to their individual needs and environment. In my home, I provide a safe, maintain routines, give playtime, and keep owners updated with photos. If in the client’s home, I respect their space, follow the pet’s usual schedule, secure the home, and communicate regularly. In both, I prioritize safety, comfort, and personalized care for the pet.

About: Experienced pet caregiver with over 5 years on Wag and a background in animal shelter work. I’m dedicated to providing loving, attentive care for your furry friends, ensuring they feel safe and happy while you're away Im currently working part time meaning I have plenty of time to fill with some quality time with animals! I also hop on these apps when traveling, and really whenever I have some extra time in my day. I have no pets living with me currently so this means plenty of space for one who needs a temporary home :) I have boarded dogs, cats, and have done sittings at others as well. Being a hiker and active means plenty of walks throughout the day

About: I’ve always loved dogs and always wanted one growing up. We finally got a dog before I went to college and ever since she has been an integral part of our family. I love taking her on walks around town and we love playing on the beach! I am currently home from college and looking to make some money while spending time with dogs and I am flexible during the week to go for walks throughout the day. I am not a pet sitter but I will make sure your dog gets back home safely after our walks, that their poop is cleaned up, and that they had some good exercise!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Seaside Heights

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Seaside Heights is $14 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $22 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 1,502 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Seaside Heights. 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 Seaside Heights. 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 Seaside Heights 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 Seaside Heights. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
