About: All breeds accepted! I was a dog owner for over 16 years and I am an animal lover for life. I will care for and treat your pet as if they were my own. I am available for drop-ins and in-home pet sitting. Meet & Greet required to get to know you and your pet, with a full discussion about your pets’ needs and your expectations for their care, before accepting booking requests. **Rate includes up to 2 walks daily for dogs. Each walk is up to 30 minutes. Rates may change based on level of care required** My full-time job is remote. This allows me to stay with your pet at your home while you are away enjoying your vacation and keep them company throughout the day. Pets will be treated like a member of the family. All needs are met: fresh food, fresh water, lots of potty breaks, exercise, attention, and, of course, love.
About: Hi, I’m Juliette! I’ve never known a day without an animal in my life. Growing up surrounded by pets, I developed a deep intuition for their needs. Today, my home is a happy hub for my two Russian Blues (a 5 year-old female and a 1 year-old male) and my 1 year-old French Bulldog. My Experience Includes: • Dogs of All Kinds: I am comfortable and experienced with dogs of all sizes, ages, and breeds. From high-energy puppies needing socialization and training to seniors requiring gentle medical care or specific dietary routines, I’ve handled it all. • Cat Specialist: I have extensive experience with a wide variety of cat breeds and temperaments. Whether your cat is social or shy, I know how to make them feel secure. • Small & Exotic Pets: I also have a soft spot for chinchillas and guinea pigs! I am flexible for all kinds of services, however at this point in time I am accepting bookings for drop ins and walk breaks. My puppy has received all of her shots & is spayed, as well as my cats are both up to date with their immunizations if interested in doggy-day care! My Availability: I work overnights (Saturday–Thursday) and finish at 8:00 AM. I tend to get home from work around 9:30 AM, depending on traffic. I give my pets breakfast and a walk outside immediately once I am home. Since I work nights, this allows me to be home and present for your pets during the day. I am happy to provide: • Doggy Day Care (Your pet can socialize with my pets for the day) • Drop-ins & Feedings • Bathroom Breaks & Walks I live in an apartment building near Fairmount in Philadelphia that offers a dark park as well as a fenced in yard by their parking lot. I live in a studio so I am constantly supervising my pets. While taking my dog on walks, I am extremely vigilant—your pet will always be on a leash or safely behind the fence. If you choose me for drop-in visits, I treat your home with the same level of care and respect as I do my own. I am committed to keeping your space exactly as you left it—if your pet has an accident or makes a mess, I will handle the cleanup immediately to ensure your home stays fresh and your pet stays healthy. My priority is making sure they are safe, fed, and happy in their own environment so you can have total peace of mind while you're away.
“Madison took extra good care of our Holly. She went above and beyond and even gave Holly a much needed bath. Holly adores Madison and we would highly recommend Madison as a walker, sitter or trainer.”
About: Hi, I have over ten years of experience with dogs. I volunteered and assisted at my local shelter from 2014 - 2017. I helped in the rehabilitation of about sixty animals to their furever home. I’m here to help you be at ease when it comes to your pet/furbaby as they are also part of the family, I love long walks and runs, and playtime is a huge factor. I can also assist with teaching various tricks and commands with lots of patience. In my home, your dog will be safe and comfortable, there is a huge fenced yard to play while outside. I will always do my best to make sure your pet feels at home. ❤️ I’m currently staying at home as I’m a retired vet, I do morning drop off to school then I am free to keep your pet company I have a fence yard and a small Yorkie to keep your dog company.

About: Hi! I’m Erin, and I have over two years of experience working at Lucky’s, an animal boarding facility. There, I cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I dealt with puppies, seniors, and those with anxiety. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, giving medications, and handling high energy or anxious dogs. What sets me apart is my professional background combined with a genuine love for animals. I know how to read dog behavior, respond calmly in any situation, and make sure each pup feels safe and cared for. I treat every dog like family and always strive to create a stress-free, fun experience for both pets and their owners. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 8–5, but I’m fully available on weekends and evenings. I make sure to give pets the attention and care they need before and after work, and I’m especially flexible on weekends for walks, playtime, or overnight care. Even with a busy schedule, I prioritize making pets feel loved, comfortable, and well cared for. I won’t be able to care for pets in my home, as I have an anxious beagle that does not do well with other dogs. As for my clients home, I will follow your instructions carefully to keep their routine consistent and comfortable. I’ll provide fresh food and water, regular exercise, playtime, and lots of affection. I’ll also make sure their space stays clean and safe, and keep you updated with messages or photos so you feel confident and connected while you’re away. My goal is to treat your pet like family and make your home their happy, calm space.

The average cost of Dog Walking in Ship Bottom is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $24 per walk.

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 Ship Bottom. 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 Ship Bottom 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 Ship Bottom. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
