Irem, Walked my pup this week while he was recovering from neutering and she was wonderful. She took good care to keep him from over exerting himself and was patient with him.

Amber has been great taking care of our large but nervous rescue pup, Teddy. She is clearly knowledgeable in how to work with dogs who are not immediately trusting and more reserved. Now Teddy really enjoys his weekly walks and getting to sit with Amber for some treats. I would continue to recommend her for any of your pet care needs.

I’ve had my share with senior cats/dogs, as well as being able to handle oral medication and specific routines. I‘m open and available any day of the week and usually at any time. My calendar is up to date all the way until August. I will treat your pet and your house with utmost respect and privacy, and treat your pet with the love, comfort, and care they deserve and more. They’ll always be safe in my care.

Alexandra is incredibly kind and gentle. She was so patient with our Lani, who’s scared of just about everything, and really respected our request to keep greetings and goodbyes calm and low-key to help prevent separation anxiety. She takes her time, used the treats for getting boots on!) And gives Lani the full walk time without rushing. We feel very comfortable with her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive walker.

Morgan was great, and was willing to walk our < 3 month old puppy twice a day on VERY short notice. She was extremely nice, professional, and even sent me pictures to let me know how my pup was doing. We will definitely be using Morgan’s services again, and would recommend her to anyone looking for some help with their dog.

About: What sets me apart is my background as a nurse and my lifelong experience caring for animals. I've been around pets since I was 4 years old and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and attention to detail. As a dog owner myself, I'm comfortable caring for puppies, active dogs, and senior pets. I'm reliable, safety-focused, and will treat your pet like family while providing updates and plenty of love and attention during every visit. Hi! I'm a nurse who loves spending my days off with animals. I've been caring for animals since I was 4 years old and have had dogs my entire life. Caring for others is a big part of who I am, and that extends to pets as well. I'm an early riser, enjoy routines, and understand how important consistency is for keeping pets happy and comfortable. I also love staying active through walking and working out, so I'm always happy to give dogs plenty of exercise, fresh air, and attention. Whether it's a leisurely neighborhood stroll or a more energetic walk, I'll make sure your pet gets the activity they need. My nursing schedule varies, which gives me flexibility and availability for drop-in visits throughout the week. Whether your pet needs a potty break, playtime, feeding, or just some extra love and attention while you're away, I'd be happy to help. I look forward to treating your pets like they're part of my own family! I will care for your pets as if they are my own. I'll keep them safe and fed in your house while making sure they get there exercise! I'm a huge walker!

About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. Growing up my family and I have adopted 3 dogs. I absolutely love working with dogs - big, small, old, hyper, I’m your gal! I have a couple years of experience working at a doggy day care as well as some dog bathing services. I’m a junior currently attending Ramapo College. I commute to class and am available for multiple days a week. I’m usually always available on the weekends! I have a fenced yard for my dog but she is not the friendliest. I tend to bring her to the dog park where she gets along with other dogs in a bigger/more open area.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and caring for them has always been second nature to me. Over the years, I’ve also dog‑sat for friends and family giving me experience with different breeds, personalities and routines. Whether your pup loves long walks, belly rubs or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy and loved while you’re away. Because I work from home, pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, which means plenty of time for walks, play breaks, feeding and keeping an eye on your pet’s comfort. I build my work schedule around their needs so they get consistent attention and companionship instead of long stretches alone. Whether it’s a midday walk, extra snuggles or sticking to their usual routine, I’m able to give them steady, reliable care all week long. I have a quiet, calm and pet‑friendly home that’s perfect for animals who enjoy a peaceful environment. Since I don’t have any pets of my own, your dog gets my full attention and a stress‑free space with no competition for affection. I keep my home clean, safe and comfortable and I have a deck where pets can relax outside, enjoy some fresh air and soak up the sun.

About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life. Often watch others dogs over night, or come by for walks and feedings when owners are away. Good with animals of all sizes. Currently my schedule is very open, available in the mornings and afternoons for walks or visits. Can also be available to watch dogs overnight if needed. My home is an apartment right next to several parks. Perfect for smaller dogs or big dogs who need exercise outside. Can also travel to you.

About: I have over 20 years of experience providing occasional care for both dogs and cats.

About: My 10 year old and I love it when your babies enjoy a swim in the lake in the summer and/or a walk around the lake with us. Rest assured your fur babies will be happy and healthy while you are away. Our standard poodle is my daughter’s best girl. We go for walks at least once per day around the lake (1.6 miles around). Sometimes we even go more than once and we all get a good workout in! We usually care for dogs here at home, however, I am open to caring for your fur babies at your house, if you prefer! Let me know!

About: Hi! My name is Logan, and I’m a current college student at the University of New England with a strong background in studying animal behavior. I have several years of experience pet sitting, caring for my own pets — my dog Riley and cat Nadia — and working with local animal shelters. I love animals of all sizes and understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. They’re family, and I take that responsibility seriously. You can count on me to provide loving, dependable care and to treat your pets with the same attention and compassion I give my own. I'm currently looking for a part-time job until Rover takes off, so as of now, pet care is my 100% focus. I spend every day caring for my cat Nadia and my family's dog Riley. I'm hoping that I will get to spend a good amount of my time also caring for other peoples pets :). When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection while also following any feeding schedules, medication instructions, or special care requests closely. I always prioritize safety by keeping pets supervised, securing doors and gates, and maintaining a clean, calm environment. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I take the time to build trust and make them feel safe and cared for. Whether it’s an energetic dog who loves long walks or a shy cat who prefers quiet companionship, I adapt my care to meet each pet’s individual needs. My goal is to give owners peace of mind knowing their pets are being treated like family while they’re away.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Wanaque

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Wanaque on Rover is $21.4 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 22,885 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Wanaque. 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 your Wanaque. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood 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, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Wanaque.

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 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 Wanaque. On Rover:

  • 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 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.
