This is the second time Anna has taken out my little dog Winston and she does such a fantastic job. She really takes care with following instructions and sends lots of photo and video updates - which are really appreciated. I’ll definitely be using Anna again in the future. Thanks Anna!

About: Hi my name is Olivia and I live with my partner James in Morden. We absolutely love dogs and hope to get one of our own some day, but for now I'm looking to put my dog care experience to good use, and would love to look after your pet for you! Whilst I'll be the main carer, James has also spent lots of time with dogs and so is often on hand for extra cuddles and playtime too. I had a black labrador as a child so have been around dogs from a young age. Since then I have regularly looked after dogs for friends and family. I regularly looked after a friends dog with seperation anxiety, keeping them company and being a calming influence whilst the owners were at work. I've also cared for other peoples dogs through the likes of Borrow my Doggy and Trusted House Sitters. I am experienced in feeding, walking and entertaining dogs. I would always follow your instructions and their routine. I work quite flexibly. I work part time and am also a part time PhD student. I work from home and have a flexible schedule on my PhD days to accommodate your schedule. On weekends and evenings my partner James is also around and tends to help me out with any pets in our care. I have an enclosed garden so your dog can go outside safely. I am happy to accommodate your dog as best I can so just let me know what they need. I live very close to Morden Hall Park as well as lots of other green spaces and so would be sure to take your dog out for a walk(s) as needed throughout the day.

About: Hi, I’m Jay — a caring and reliable dog walker and pet sitter in South London. I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember — growing up with them from a baby right through to early adulthood. Since then, I’ve continued to dog walk and pet sit for friends and families whenever life has allowed, including cat sitting and boarding too. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes — from playful puppies to big, strong breeds — and I’ll always tailor walks and care to suit your pet’s routine and personality. I’m also comfortable administering medication (though still growing my experience here) and I’m especially interested in developing my knowledge in dog behaviour and training, so I’m always patient, observant, and gentle in my approach. ✅ Enhanced DBS checked (through my professional work as a midwife & doula) ✅ Certified in Pet First Aid & Life Support ✅ Flexible Monday–Friday (10:30–20:00), with some weekend availability Whether it’s a long park walk, a quick drop-in, or some cuddles at home, I’ll treat your pet like one of my own — with care, respect, and lots of love. I’d love to arrange a meet & greet so you and your pet feel fully at ease. I currently work part-time with my clients, so I have plenty of time to care for your dogs. Most of my availability is during the week, perfect for owners heading into the office or traveling Monday to Friday, with some weekend slots also available! I believe movement is medicine, so I love active, playful walks and games with dogs. At the same time, I’m calm and attentive with pets who are anxious or adjusting to new environments, ensuring every visit prioritises safety, trust, and companionship.

About: Experienced dog & cat sitter in Morden, next to Morden Hall Park 🌳 🏠 I live in a house with my partner with a fenced in, secure garden. Having grown up with many animals, I miss their company and adore having the chance to look after them and treat them as my own! Whilst we’re not quite ready to take on a dog of our own, a house is not a home without the love from an animal ❤️ I only ever take one dog at a time to ensure they have our full and undivided attention. I’ve established and maintained relationships with numerous pet owners in my local area, with ongoing relationships for more than 3 years. I have experience with all kinds of dogs, from puppies to seniors, from dachshunds to huskys. I WFH most of the week so have lots of time to spend giving love to a four legged friend. I’m also fortunate that my office is dog-friendly, so longer term boarders love coming with me to central London and get showered with attention and love from my colleagues! 🐶 I currently work from home most of the week. As a home body, I love spending time in my own space and love to share that with an animal! I like to keep fit with walks in Morden Hall Park which is a five minute walk away, so having a dog to join me is a joy. I treat animals as if they are my own, with endless care, cuddles and attention. Growing up with lots of pets I miss them having moved to London. There is no greater joy than hanging out with cats and dogs so everytime I do I cherish it!

About: Hi, I am Marina, you local pet expert. I was fascinated by animals since I was a child. I enjoyed helping my aunt to care for sick animals at her vet clinic. 12 years ago I started to look after pets for my friends on ad hoc basis. One day I realised just how rewarding it is and that the pets look forward to my visits. My client list grew and I decided to become a professional pet sitter. I am available to look after your furry friend most do the days. I know life could be challenging, so I am available on a short notice. I have fully fenced garden and a open space plan in the house, so your animal won’t feel claustrophobic. When your furry friend stays with us, I walk the dog at least twice a day for over an hour each time. We live near Morden hall park, where gods have space to run around. Have lots of dogs toys balls/flying rings to play outside.

About: I have had pets my whole childhood from dogs, rabbits, birds to fish! I’m a lifelong animal lover. I love looking after pets for short/long term stays (esp. dogs). From walks to playtime snuggles, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I have a good track record for caring for others’ dogs ranging from a day to a week. I take pride in creating a safe and nurturing environment for animals. I’m well equipped to give them all the care they need. I work from home most weekdays and I’m in London almost every weekend. I’m happy to look after pets in the week and if I’m home on the weekend as well. I work from home and I’m able to provide constant care and attention throughout the day. I love taking dogs for regular walks and trips to the nearby parks. I don’t mind having dogs on my couch or bed, I enjoy the cuddles while watching TV or when having a nap on the couch. I will not leave them alone for extended periods of time as they are my priority when looking after them. If I need to step out it will be for short intervals.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities, including my own rescue dog and a large-breed dog. Through years of dog walking and pet sitting, I have developed a strong understanding of canine behaviour, body language, and individual care needs. I regularly attend training sessions with my own dogs and am currently completing courses in Dog Behaviour & Training and Professional Dog Walking. This helps me provide safe, positive, and enriching care for every dog I look after. My experience includes caring for energetic young dogs, nervous or rescue dogs who need extra patience and confidence-building, and larger breeds that require consistent handling. I focus on creating a calm, trustworthy environment where dogs feel comfortable, secure, and happy while in my care. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I care for my own two dogs every day, including walks, training, playtime, feeding, and enrichment activities. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide regular walks, drop-in visits, daycare, and pet sitting throughout the week. I enjoy spending time outdoors and making sure every dog gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. 🐾 Available all weekends, and love making some trip to dog friendly beaches or big parks. Safety and comfort are my priorities when caring for pets. At home, I have two built-in crates and two large travel crates available for dogs who feel more secure having their own quiet space. If needed, crates can be set up in our bedroom to help dogs settle and feel comfortable, especially during overnight stays. My home has a large, secure garden with an agility area, a dog swimming pool, and a variety of enrichment activities and games to keep dogs mentally and physically stimulated throughout the day. I tailor activities to each dog’s age, energy level, and personality. I follow owners’ routines and instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise requirements, medication, and training preferences. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. 🐾

I have hands-on experience caring for all kinds of dogs: I’ve owned two Toy Poodles (Teddies), a Labrador Retriever, and a Giant Poodle, and also cared for a Golden Retriever for a period of time. I’m comfortable with both small breeds and large dogs, from daily walks and feeding to grooming and bathing. I know how to keep dogs happy, safe, and stick to their routines. I’m available most days (not just weekends!) and have plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I’m reliable, patient, and will send photos/videos during every visit so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in good hands. As a student, my schedule is pretty flexible. I’m free most days, including afternoons and evenings, usually after 1pm,so I can easily fit walks or visits in. I never rush and will always give your pet the full time they need. I’ve grown up with dogs and know how to keep them safe and happy. I’ll stick to your pet’s routine and send photos during every visit

Cannot thank Sofia enough! I reached out last minute for a dog walking/sitting request for our 4-month old puppy Charles, and she responded very quickly to the request. Communication was great, and she sent me loads of photos and videos from the walk and sitting - this was our puppy's first time being with a dog sitter, and I was a little nervous at first but it looks like he loved it! He is now fast asleep at our house - a good sign of time well spent. Thank you again Sofia for your help!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Merton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Merton on Rover is £17.25 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 23,998 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Merton. Enter your postcode 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-to-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 Merton. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighbourhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poo and pee breaks, and distance travelled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Merton.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes dedicated customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement programme 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 must pass an identity verification before they can list their services. An identity verification confirms that the sitter is who they say they are based on their documents.

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 our Trust & Safety page .

Yes, you can find Walkers who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

  • 88% of Walkers can help with special care needs
  • 88% 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.

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.

Yes, Rover is well-suited for last-minute bookings for Dog Walking. With 23,998 Walkers in Merton, 46% respond to messages in under 5 minutes.

Many sitters keep their calendars updated in real time and you can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care in the next 24 hours, you can look for sitters with a 'calendar last updated' notice on their profiles.
