“Elaine has been amazing with our dog, Jax! He’s usually pretty shy, but he warmed up to her so quickly. It’s clear she really understands dogs and takes her time to make them feel comfortable. She’s reliable, kind, and clearly loves what she does. We’re so glad we found her!”
About: I have been taking care and pet sitting all kinds of pets and animals since I was 16 years old. I have worked in dog daycares and boarding facilities for around 3 years. I have been trained in dog behavior, temperament, and care. I have a lot of experience with providing dogs and other pets with the proper care they deserve. I love all kinds of animals and want to provide the best care for your pets. I am currently not working so I have lots of available time to provide visits and care for your pets. I am more available during the daytime but can do evening visits as well. I cannot provide care in my own home but I am very open and willing to provide care in my clients home. I love and care about routines so any routine your pet needs to follow I will be able to provide that in my clients home.

About: I have experience with dogs of all sizes and ages through my volunteer work at HFGDR.

About: I have been an animal sitter, caregiver, and foster for animals for over 30 years. My dedication and compassion has always been for animals of all kind. I will most certainly treat your furry family member as if it was my own 🥰🐾 I am currently self-employed and work from home and make my own hours so I am very flexible.

About: Hi there I’m Amaya, a lifelong animal lover and local pet care provider ready to give your furry family member the love, exercise and attention they deserve! I’m a pet owner myself so I understand the importance of knowing they aren’t just pets- they are family, which is why it is important for you to find someone you trust to care for them when you are away…and I can help! •Focus on safety •Routine Consistency (feeding, house rules, walking) As a graduate student, my schedule allows me to be available during those crucial hours when your furry friend needs a potty break and fresh air most.

I know routine change can be stressful for pets, so I focus on creating a calm, predictable environment.
“Ray is clearly a lover of dogs and my boy Benji sensed that immediately. I’m a little nervous when allowing new people around Benji, but I felt extremely comfortable with way. Benji looks forward to more walks with Ray.”
About: I come from a long line of dog lovers! I’ve been around dogs my whole life, and it’s been a privilege to continue spending my days with my favorite animal. I’ve walked and dogsat for neighbors and family friends since I graduated college in 2021. I’ve also worked at Wonder Dog Studio in Summit, NJ, where I was a Daycare Manager and Driver. So, if your pup loves the car, I’d be happy to take them for a drive! My schedule is very flexible for day time walks and care. I’m also a Stand Up Comedian, whose shows are normally at night, either in NJ or NYC. I’ll always make sure your pup is taken care of before I head out, and have a network of other dog sitters to help me out if needed. I always make sure the pets in my care never feel lonely! I’ll sit on the couch with them while I work, read a book, or watch TV. While staying in someone’s home, I make sure that doors are locked before I head out, as well as leave the TV or music on for anxious pets. Finally, I always make sure to send the owner pictures of their pet at least twice a day!
About: Have always been an animal lover! I now have the time and opportunity to care for other pets. Have summers off from teaching and would love the extra income. My home is very pet friendly. My chihuahua Zoey is sassy but tolerant. She has co-habitated with 2 Labs, a super frisky Pit-Bull and more than one “class pet hamsters”. I personally have a classic case of “empty nest syndrome” since my 3 daughters have moved out, and really look forward to caring for other people’s pets. I wish I had this service years ago when I was going down the shore with my small children. We would usually board our dog which was not always a pleasant experience. I would have loved Rover for its petsonalized care!
About: I’ve cared for animals for as long as I can remember, but professionally, I’ve spent years working in veterinary medicine. I currently work as a veterinary nurse in the oncology department of a large specialty hospital, and I have experience in multiple veterinary clinics and hospitals. I’m comfortable caring for dogs, cats, and exotic pets of all ages, breeds, personalities, and medical needs. I’m especially comfortable with senior pets and pets with chronic or complex medical conditions. I can administer oral and topical medications, injections, and subcutaneous fluids, and my veterinary background means I’m comfortable recognizing when something isn’t right and responding appropriately in an emergency. I’m also Fear Free Certified and take low-stress handling seriously. I’m happy to work with pets who are nervous, shy, spicy, or simply need a little more patience than the average sitter may be comfortable providing. For pets who need a little maintenance while you’re away, I can also provide nail trims, sanitary trims, and anal gland expressions when appropriate and requested. At home, I have my goofy rescue Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Fae, and two cats: Baby, my beautiful but spicy failed foster, and Boo, my precious social recluse. Between them and my years in veterinary medicine, I’m very accustomed to animals having wildly different ideas about what constitutes a good time. For house sitting, my goal is to keep your pet’s life as normal as possible while you’re gone. I’m happy to follow their usual feeding, walking, medication, play, and bedtime routines rather than expecting them to adjust to mine. For walks and drop-ins, I’m equally happy with a leisurely sniff-every-blade-of-grass walk, an energetic outing, or simply keeping an older pet company and taking care of their needs. I am in clinical rotations for my graduate program from Monday-Thursday 8:30am-4:30pm and work the odd Friday per diem at my veterinary hospital. If you don’t see a date you need, just message me! At your home I will adhere to what is normal for your pet and I can follow any rules and instructions you may have, including medications, feeding schedules, walks, play time and exercise, or just “hanging out” to make your pet feel less lonely while you’re away.

About: I treat every dog like family, giving them the attention, exercise, and cuddles they crave.

Pet care fits right into my routine — weekday evenings are best for walks and play, weekends for long hikes, adventures, and plenty of love. I provide a safe and loving environment where pets can relax, play, and feel at ease. My home is secure, cozy, and supervised with care. You can trust me to treat your pet like family, offering not just safety but plenty of fun and affection.
About: Hi! I’m Zara, and caring for animals has been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. Over the past 6 years, I’ve gained experience through dog walking, house sitting, and fostering a wide range of animals, from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. A lot of my experience is personal, which I think makes it even more meaningful. I grew up with a family dog and learned early on what it means to be responsible for and truly bond with an animal. I also rescued and raised a stray kitten from just 4 weeks old, which was one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve had. Since then, I’ve continued fostering kittens, puppies, cats, and dogs, all with different personalities, needs, and routines. I genuinely love getting to know each pet and what makes them comfortable, whether that’s long walks, playtime, or just having someone calm and reliable around. I treat every animal like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize pet care throughout the week. I’m generally available most days, with limited availability on Monday and Wednesday mornings from 9–1. Otherwise, I’m open and can accommodate a variety of schedules. I always tailor my care based on each pet’s routine and the owner’s preferences. I know every pet is different, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, medications, or just how their pet likes to relax. I focus on creating a comfortable, safe, and stress-free environment while giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and care.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Westfield is $24
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Westfield
Michelle was fantastic with our pup, Happy! Her communication was excellent, and we received many pics of their walks. Happy is not yet a year and can be a bit of a handful. Michelle handled his energy like a pro and treated our dog like her own. We feel very comfortable with Michelle and would use her again without a doubt!
Jessica came a couple days early to meet the dogs, and get instructions. I found her to be outgoing and personable. We hired her for 2 walks and had her feed our boys as well. I received photos and updates of her arrival, everything went as planned. I would highly recommend Jessica and wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again!
Vanessa has been amazing with my dog. She’s always on time, super communicative, and you can tell she truly loves animals the moment she meets them. She’s friendly, warm, and my pup absolutely adores her. I really appreciate the care and attention she puts into every visit. I’d recommend Vanessa to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pet.
We needed a walker last minute and so glad we found Armin! He is communicative, punctual, and kind. He was immediately great with my Husky mix and has now become my go-to when we need a dog walker. He is very flexible, responds quickly, and provides detailed updates for every walk. Highly recommend!

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 Westfield. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
