“Michele did a wonderful job taking care of my Boston Terrier Phoebe. She is detail oriented and maintained communication with me each day so I would know how their walks went and what they had done. I would not hesitate to have Michele again and truly appreciate her attentive care!”

About: I'm an animal lover and dependable pet sitter providing caring, personalized attention for dos and cats. Whether it's walks, playtime, feedings or drop-ins, I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, happy and loved while you're away. I have great flexibility with my full-time job and can do drop-ins or walks as needed weekdays and weekends. Many working parents utilize my flexibility for a lunch time walk to break up the pet's day or anytime some fresh air and exercise is needed. I cater to what is best for the furry client and pet owner. I can do backyard play with the pet if the owner prefers that, or indoor time as well. Sometimes senior dogs just need some petting or fresh air while other dogs want to chase a ball and play fetch.
“Sarah helped me out today and walked my dog on Christmas which I really appreciated since it was last minute. She was very accommodating and flexible and Finn took to her very well.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and currently have two 2-year-old American Bulldogs that I raised and trained from puppies. Because of that, I’m especially experienced with puppy care, basic training, and handling large, high-energy dogs. I’ve also cared for dogs of all sizes, from small family dogs to larger breeds, so I’m comfortable adapting to each dog’s unique personality and needs. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I currently work a couple of evenings each week at a restaurant and train for soccer for about two hours on some mornings, which leaves me with plenty of flexibility to provide pet care. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, I’m committed to giving your pet the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll follow your routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I’ll make sure they have plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh food and water, and any medications if needed. I’ll also keep your home clean, provide regular updates with photos, and treat both your pet and your home with the same care and respect I would my own.

About: *** I am available to book clients in the area surrounding Ocean City, NJ*** What truly sets me apart from other sitters is my experience, genuine passion for animals, and skills that cater to both ends of the age spectrum. Puppy Care: As a seasoned sitter, I possess a unique skill set in puppy training. I understand the importance of early socialization, positive reinforcement, and consistent routines. Senior Care: On the other end of the spectrum, I am well-versed in providing dedicated care for senior pets. I recognize the unique needs of older animals, including mobility challenges, joint care, and age-appropriate exercise. I currently work part-time, so I will have plenty of time to play and care for your pets. I can readily adjust my schedule to the needs of you and your pets. Caring for the pets in your home is a responsibility I take very seriously! Every pet is unique, and I recognize that. I take the time to understand your pet's personality, preferences, and any specific requirements they may have. Above all, my genuine love for animals drives me to go above and beyond. Your pet will benefit from my unwavering dedication, treating them with the same affection and care I offer to my own pets. Routine: Consistency is key for pets, so l'll stick to their established routine, including feeding times, exercise schedules, bathroom breaks, and playtime. This minimizes stress and ensures a smooth transition in your absence. Feeding and Medication: If your pet requires a special diet or medication, l'll make sure to follow your instructions precisely. Whether it's administering oral medication, applying topical treatments, or managing injections, your pet's health is my top priority. Exercise and Play: Engaging physical and mental activities are vital for pets' well-being. I'll engage in interactive play, walks, and stimulating games to keep them entertained, happy, and healthy. Hygiene and Cleanliness: I maintain a clean and hygienic environment for your pet. Regularly cleaning food and water bowls, litter boxes, and bedding. Communication: Regular updates are crucial to ease your mind while you're away. I'll provide you with timely messages, photos, and even videos of your pet, so you can stay connected and see that they're in good hands. Emergency Preparedness: While I hope it never happens, I am prepared for emergencies. I'll have your contact information, your veterinarian's details, and a plan in place to address any unexpected situations that may arise. Safety and Security: I'll ensure that your home is secure during my visits. Doors and windows will be properly closed and locked. If necessary, I'll also bring in mail, adjust curtains, and perform other tasks to give the appearance that your home is occupied. Initial Consultation: Before the pet-sitting period begins, I'll meet with you and your pet (in person or virtually) to discuss your pet's routine, medical needs, and any specific requirements they may have. Ultimately, I treat your pet as if they were my own, offering the same love, care, and attention I would want for my furry companions. Your pet's happiness, safety, and well-being are my primary concerns throughout my time caring for them in 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 Somers Point. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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.

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.
