About: Animals have been a constant presence in my life, and I'm always the first person my loved ones turn to when they welcome a new pet. Ensuring that animals feel cherished and well-cared for is my utmost priority, especially when it comes to my beloved senior companion, who deserves all the love and attention. I plan on committing all my time to pet care and Rover. I’ll be available to care for your pets all week long, including weekends and evenings!! I live in a spacious 4-bedroom home with my family, and we have a quiet, open yard that’s perfect for pets to explore safely. I share my home with a sweet senior teacup chihuahua, so I understand the importance of gentle care and attentiveness—especially for older or more sensitive pets. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I approach every visit with empathy, patience, and a genuine love for animals. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a clean, secure environment.

About: I am more than happy to meet with you prior to booking with me! I acknowledge that it is important for you to get know me, as well as is it for me to get to know you. Having pets comes with great responsibilities. I have raised puppies since I was 9 up until now. I am a biologist and grew up on a farm, so I know how to care for all kinds of animals. I currently have a 6 year old Labrador Retriever named Kaia and 8 year old Weimaraner named Blue. Sisters that love to run, swim, and live a very fun life along with me and my parents. Most of the breeds I have owned have been large breeds: Labradors, Bloodhounds, Dalmatians, Weimaraners, along with small sized breeds such as Beagles and Miniature Australian Shepherd. I am working part-time so I will have time for your buddy. I am mostly available during weekends all day or Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday after 11:30 AM. I am not open to dog/cat sitting at my place, but I will gladly care for your friend at your place if needed. I am able to walk, feed, or take them to potty ever 2-3 hours. If your yard is not fenced, that is not a problem. If your yard is fenced, I will spend time with your dog, play with them, and clean up after them.
About: I have 3 years of hands-on pet care experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages. I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors with walking, feeding, playtime, bathing, and basic routines. I’m patient, attentive, and make sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I always follow instructions closely and keep owners updated, because I know how important peace of mind is. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make their well-being my top priority. I’m available most days with flexible hours. I’m unavailable on Mondays and Tuesdays, but I respond quickly and keep a consistent routine on all other days. I provide pet care exclusively in my clients’ homes, where pets are most comfortable in their own environment. I follow all care instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, maintain a clean space, and respect your home and routines. I focus on calm, attentive care and regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe while you’re away.
“Our Lab was diagnosed with an upper respiratory infection and were advised from our vet to keep him out of doggie day camp for the week for his well being and that of the other dogs. Taylor responded within minutes to me and we could tell our boy was content with Taylor's visits/walks this past week. As a bonus, she included daily pictures which was appreciated. We had a very positive experience with Taylor and will reach out to her the next time we need our Lab in good hands.”

About: I’m a huge animal lover with four dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I’ve been pet sitting for my neighbors for years and love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting in your home. Since I’m a teacher on summer break, I have lots of free time and a super flexible schedule—perfect for giving your pets the attention they deserve! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow any instructions you leave and make sure your pet sticks to their normal routine as much as possible.

I keep things tidy, follow house rules, and make sure your pet is happy and well-cared for. If there’s ever anything you want to check in on, I’m always happy to send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
About: I have had cats and dogs all my life. I love taking care of animals, so much I know how to bottle feed baby kittens. I have had a range of dog sizes to care for in my life ranging from chihuahuas to siberian huskies. I love all animals and love taking care of them. I am currently a full time student until December, and I have a pretty much open schedule with only one in person class. I can visit your furbabies any day from 7am-5pm! My cats are free-feed babies, their litter boxes are changed daily and dumped weekly. My dogs are kennel fed out of pure safety, as well as walked on leashes until their recall is adequate.

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 West Orange. 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 West Orange.

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 West Orange. On Rover:
- 100% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
