About: I've been taking care of my orange cat (Pete) and walking my neighbours dogs since I was 13, and I always love meeting and learning about people's pets! I've found that if you love and respect animals, they will often respect and love you back. I can't wait to meet your best friend! I usually get up pretty early, and have a good amount of time on my hands at the moment. I will always make your pet my number one priority while under my care. I'm always looking to build a strong relationship of safety and trust with both pets and pet parents. Always let me know what I can do to give you the most peace of mind during any stay.
“Bubba had two excellent walks with Diane! She was very responsive re: scheduling and arrival. Diane took the time to talk with me about Bubba's little (big) personality, worked with him on the walk, and provided a full report and cute photos. I highly recommend Diane!”
“Shreya is communicative, friendly and Scarlett always looks forward to her walks. :) She was very receptive of my info about Scarlett as she tends to be leash reactive toward other dogs. She handles her well, no complaints!”
About: Hi! I'm Kristen, a historical archaeology student at UMass Boston! Animals, history, and creative activities are my life. I have grown up with animals in my house my entire life- from rescue dogs, to cats, to hedgehogs, birds and rabbits, there are very few animals that I haven't gotten to play with. I would love to help you give your fur baby the best life possible by making sure they get the exercise they need, they get to socialize, and let them explore the environment around them. I have experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes- from Pugs to Newfoundlands, so I'm no stranger to large dogs and what they might need, and how that would differ from a smaller dog. I'd love to help you be the best owner you can be! I also have experience with multiple different livestock animals, from chicken and geese to donkeys. My goal is to own my own rescue farm one day, so special circumstance animals are something I am very comfortable doing. I prefer to spend time with your pets as much as possible, to help give them the socialization they need so they aren't left alone while they wait for their favorite people to come back :) I focus on making sure to keep into their set schedule as much as possible. Have a set time your fluffy friend needs to eat that never changes? Does your pet need to take multiple walks a day? My schedule is very flexible and it is my priority to keep their lives as unchanged as possible. I keep pets as normal in their routine as possible so they don't feel out of sorts until their people come home! I am more than comfortable dealing with crated, uncrated, specific behaviors of pets, and more. I make sure that their food and water intake is exactly how you specify, and that they get plenty of love and exercise.
About: I’ve owned three dogs of different breeds and sizes. I have taken care of other people’s dogs at various points since I was 12 and I enjoyed it. I’m currently working part-time so I have ample time to care for other dogs in the south shore area I have lots of availability during the weekends. I currently dont have any pets and I live in a dog friendly apartment complex with a dog park nearby. It’s a good area for walks.
About: I started taking care of dogs since I was 20 years old. I started taking care of my friends and family dogs, I gain experience with them at first, then I kept growing up learning with each doggie, you have to be emotionally prepare for them, I'm sure I developed was is required for their cares. I work from home, so I want to start specifically walks an Drop-off sevices in my spare time, but I'll have a flexible schedule and convenient for each customer need. I have a a fenced backyard in case I had to board or take care of a doggie during the day. So your dog can feel comfortable and have play time during the day.
About: I’ve enjoyed walking dogs since I was a child. I’ve taken care of many puppies and older dogs. I understand the special care that they require. I’m happy to take dogs in to our home as well as going to people’s homes to pet sit. I work most week days until 5. I am free to help with visits and walks at night. I am free on the weekends for taking in pets for overnights or going to your home to visit, walks, play and feeding pets. I have a section at my home that is fenced in or I walk dogs on the leash. I walk often and make sure to stick to schedules and feeding routines. I have so much love for animals and love nothing more than caring for them.
About: I’ve had almost every type of pet in the book in my life; I have experienced just about anything you could throw at me from dogs and cats, to snakes and chickens! I am not afraid of a challenge, I’ve worked with reactive dogs and dogs with special needs. Every pet deserves love and I will provide that with an open mind and heart. I am currently working part time, so this means I will have a flexible schedule for all you and your fuzzy, (or not so fuzzy) companions needs! I love spending time with animals! I am comfortable with mostly anything with them; such as administering their medicine, following any sort of routine/schedule, crating, even training!
About: I have been around all and taken care of all sizes, ages and temperaments of dogs for years!! They are the absolute best! As a dog mom myself I understand the difficulty of trusting and finding someone to take care of my pal if I’m not able to. I know how important it is to find the right person that will give them the loving care our dogs deserve! I can provide that peace of mind!!! I am an elementary school teacher with tons of scheduling flexibility and love taking care of dogs! Walking dogs and the excitement their energy brings is a daily must! I have a big back yard and one older and very friendly Blue Heeler. We love to sit outside any chance we get and go on multiple walks a day. I do have a runner for our yard if certain dogs enjoy running around too. I can easily crate your dog if that is something you are interested in. I have a nice open house that your dog can roam freely. Any additional specific instructions you may have I will follow!
About: I’ve had dogs ever since I was a kid. I love all animals. But dogs are my favorite. Dogs genuinely adapt to me very well. My part time job allows me to have extra time to pick up some doggy clients during the day which I love spending time with my furry friends. I’m also available during the weekend as well. I’m really sorry but I do not offer care/ services at my home. Unfortunately my dog is reactive so I cannot take that chance with her.
About: Have worked with cats all my life and also with dogs who require a bit more patience! Great with anxious animals. Earning trust of all of our furry friends slowly but surely. I also do pet digital paintings!! Have me create it while you are away ☺️ Can provide pet care on most days! I can help out super early mornings but do not prefer to do too late in the evenings. I now have two of my own furry babies. My beautiful 6 yr old Calico cat - Inu! And our newest addition, a handsome tuxedo boy named Loki! I enjoy caring for all other animals and always happy to watch them and give them all the care while you enjoy your time away from them. Rest assured, they will be in good hands.

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 .

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 Allerton. 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 Allerton.

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 Allerton. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
