Dog Walking Sparta

“First, I've never used this type of service before. Alissa was accommodating, attentive, prompt and very caring for my dog, Lilly. If Alissa is the standard of the type of people that will care for my dog, I would use this service again, without a doubt. And, I wouldn't hesitate in booking Alissa, and recommending her to everyone.”

“Jillian was fantastic with my dog, who loved her and didn’t want to say goodbye. Jillian is very professional.”

About: Hello, I am Polina. I grew up with 3 lovely dogs named Chopar, Dino, and Ronny. I love hiking and camping with my family. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and ages, from puppies and small dogs like Yorkshire terrier up to bigger dogs like German shepherds. I love meeting new dogs and spending time in nature walking or running. Keeping every dog safe and happy is my first priority! I have first aid dog training. I will treat your dog with love and care and will make sure they have enjoyable walks and play time! I am a reliable dog care provider and have a fenced yard around a pool which is open during the summer. I can take your pup to the vet, local park, or for grooming if needed. I am excited to meet your four legged friend. I have a 6 year old cockapoo named Oliver! I have flexible schedule during the summer and, during the school year, I work around my teaching schedule and continue to offer reliable, flexible care. Whether it’s a daily walk or occasional help, I will treat your dog like family and care as if they were my own.

About: I have been pet-sitting for my neighbors, boss, and co-workers since 2010. While I occasionally board pets in my home, I usually provide pet/house-sitting in the customer's home. I walk/feed/brush dogs, administer oral medication if indicated, and spend time playing with them. I also take in mail, water plants, and take out trash/recycling. I am a newly retired teacher, now only working part time. I am available for your pet care needs early morning, early afternoon, & evenings. If I am providing care in my home, I can offer to take dogs for a walk in a nearby state park. I try to keep the pets' feeding and walking schedules consistent with that of the owners.

About: Experienced pet sitter and animal lover. I've worked in animal rescue, done trap-neuter-release, cared for a colony of feral cats for a decade, and fostered more kittens and adult cats than I can count. I offer visits, walks, overnight stays, or I can live at your house while you are away. I am a nature and wildlife photographer so I have gotten to know, to one degree or the other, all of the animals around my home, which, I believe, helps to make me comfortable with all types of pets. I also offer pet portraits! I have experience with all of the usual pets, plus a few unusual ones too. I will take good care of your dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, reptiles, small animals and even tarantulas or insects. I will treat your pets as if they were my own and I will let you know how the visits are going. Your pets will be safe and well cared for with me. I have a regular part time job with a flexible schedule so can be available just about anytime. Let me know what you need and we can work it out. Home visits run about a 1/2 an hour and include, depending upon your pet, a walk, poop scoop, litter box cleaning, feeding, watering and treat dispensing, and pats and cuddles.

About: Hi, I'm Ryan! I'm a lifelong animal lover, and I share my home with my dog Jax, who is the heart of everything I do. I got into pet sitting because caring for animals isn't just my work — it's my passion. I'm pet CPR and first aid certified, so your pets are in safe, trained hands whether we're out on a walk, stopping by for a drop-in visit, or settling in for a cozy stay. I have reliable daytime availability and I keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know your pet is happy and well cared for. Every pet gets treated like family — with patience, playtime, and plenty of love. I can't wait to meet your furry family members! Pet care is my full-time job, so my schedule revolves around your pets! I'm available seven days a week from 8:30 AM to 5 PM for walks, drop-in visits, day care, boarding, and house sitting. I plan my day around each pet's routine — meals, walks, playtime, and rest — and I keep you updated with photos and messages throughout. Because pet care is my livelihood, you can count on consistent, reliable availability and quick responses to your messages. Your pet's safety and comfort come first, always. I'm pet CPR and first aid certified and trained to handle emergencies calmly. In my home, dogs get a secure, pet-friendly environment with structured routines, plenty of playtime, and lots of affection — plus my dog Jax as a friendly companion (with slow, supervised introductions for boarders). In your home, I follow your pet's routine exactly as you leave it: feeding schedules, medications, house rules, and favorite spots. I use secure leashing and harness checks on every walk, keep a close eye on dogs during play, and send regular photo updates so you're never wondering how your pet is doing.

“Kimberly did a great job caring for our dog while we were at work. It was our first time having someone come to the house and walk our dog. She made us feel very comfortable that our dog was going to be well taken care of. I would definitely recommend her.”

About: I’ve lived with animals my whole life, fostering, new puppies, etc. I love caring for them and being by their side, and would love to do the same with your pet! I currently work part time so I have plenty of time to spend with some cute animals! It’s a no brainer and a win win if I can help out in my free time! I will be by the animals side no matter what, no little distractions could get in the way of me and your pet! Just lots of smiles and fun times!

“Erika was amazing!! This was my first time using the Rover App and I was so lucky to find Erika my first try! Erika was communicative, reliable, energetic and very sweet!! When I arrived to drop off my dog, Erika greeted us with arms full of sticks and toys ready to play with my dog (I told her sticks were my dogs favorite) it was so cute!! My dog can be very nervous and anxious, but Erika was very patient and understanding. She was able to handle my dog confidently and she sent photos and updates throughout their walk to reassure me that my dog was doing well. I would absolutely recommend Erika to anyone looking for someone who truly loves dogs and will treat your pet like their own!”

About: I have 6 years vet tech experience and another 15 years as a Labrador breeder. I have had large dogs all my life, from Shepard mixes and border collie to Labradors. I have owned performance dogs as well older dogs rescued from shelters. I have a raised ranch style home and can separate your dogs into the finished basement (which also has my home office and living room). If they are dog friendly they can live in the entire home with my two Labradors and family. My yard is impossible to fence but for smaller or older dogs I allow them on deck off lead (when I am home). When not working from home I am in Branchville and can stop at your home by 04:30PM.

I have two big dogs one is a golden retriever and the other is a German shepherd, and two cats named Lucky and Oreo. They are all the babies of our big family. I’ve house sitter before from young dogs to senior dogs, as well as kittens to adult cats. I’ve taken care of neighbors companion friends before and they’ve always trusted me with making sure their dogs were well taken care of and happy.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 14 years through fostering, pet sitting, dog walking, and volunteering with animal shelters. I’ve spent more than 10 years volunteering with shelters and also have experience helping train service animals, which has taught me so much about patience, consistency, animal behavior, and adapting to each pet’s individual personality and needs. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages and energy levels, from playful puppies who need extra attention, exercise, and structure to senior pets who prefer a slower pace and a little extra patience and TLC. I know how important it is to feel completely comfortable with the person caring for your pet. I truly treat every animal as if they were my own and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, exercise, enrichment, and companionship while they’re with me. And because I know how much we all miss our pets when we’re away, you can expect plenty of photo updates so you can see what your best friend is up to! ❤️ I have a full-time job with flexible hours, which allows me to fit pet care into my schedule consistently. I’m most available on evenings and weekends, and I always make sure I have plenty of time to give each pet the attention, exercise, and care they need. I live in a house with plenty of space for pets to feel comfortable and settle in. I’m very mindful about safety, routines, feeding instructions, and each pet’s individual needs. I also have a friendly 6-year-old cat who is comfortable around other animals. I’m happy to use a crate if that is part of your dog’s normal routine, and I always do my best to keep pets feeling safe, relaxed, and at home.

About: I’ve grown up with Beagles and work well with all breeds and ages. I strongly believe that every dog deserves a day out on the town (or maybe just a walk around it). I’m free most weekends and various times during the day. I can do early mornings or late nights, happy to spend time with any dog throughout the day. I knock and ring the doorbell always first, just so the dogs know I’m coming (if they don’t already), walk in, greet everyone and wish the dogs a good morning, feed and water them, then let them have their breakfast and take them on a walk afterwards, always making sure to clean up after them when I first get there and definitely before I leave.

About: I am an outdoorsy person. I am fun and athletic. I love going for walks to get exercise. I have had dogs in my house all my life. I am very comfortable taking care of dogs. I have always been responsible for walking and feeding all of the dogs in the house. I love playing with dog whether it be fetch or tug o war I am up for all games. I love all breed of dogs. I have had many different breeds in my home from husky to old English sheep dog to a shih tzu. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time to play with your pup. I am available for boarding, dog walking and drop ins whenever you need me. I have a big back yard and a quiet neighborhood so I can provide plenty of exercise for your fur baby. I also have 2 children who love dogs and can’t wait to play with them as well.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life. I have experience with dogs, cats, and reptiles as well. My neighbors, friends, and family know I’m the one to call for pet sitting. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I have experience bathing dogs and administering medication. I am currently working part-time so I have a lot of free time, especially on the weekends. I try my best to be flexible and stick to your pet’s schedule. I will keep a close eye on your pet, no phone usage on walks or outside in the yard. I will play till their heart is content and make sure they get lots of treats.
