About: I’ve pet sit for family and friends over the past four years, with experience ranging from house cats to dogs of all sizes. I love taking dogs on walking trails and tiring them out. I’m responsive to owner’s needs, flexible, communicative, and always prioritize safety. I am currently available to sit for any schedule - days, nights, and weekends. I am happy to travel and open to working last minute needs. Typically, I look to take dogs for longer walks in your neighborhood so they can get their exercise! If your neighborhood is not walkable, I’d ask to drive them to a local hike or walking trail. I’m an avid runner - if your pup likes to run, I’d love to bring them with me.
“We have used Katelyn several times to help with drop in visits for our dog, Kika. She navigated our apartment complex without any problems and always sent very detailed reviews with multiple pictures of our little cherub. Kika can be nervous around new people and she handled that situation with patience and kindness which we appreciate. She’s extremely reliable and trustworthy and we are already hoping to book again with her!”
“I reached out to Hannah 24 hours before needing a dog walk and she stopped by to meet my dog Luna the day of. She was great with Luna and was timely and communicative on the day of the way. We will 100% use Hannah’s services again!”
“Kamillye walked our dog, Luna on 3/18, showed up right on time, and sent over a number of pictures. Luna looked thrilled! I knew everything would be great after meeting Kamillye for a meet and greet. She was fantastic with Luna and I will definitely ask her to walk Luna again.”
About: I’ve had cats my whole life and a dog for the past 12 years. I’ve helped care for my family pets since I was a kid. I’ve cared for neighborhood pets, including older animals, to feed, walk, and care for them when their families are away. I currently have 3 cats and a dog. I’m currently looking for something part-time to care for pets in my community while I look for full-time employment. My availability is very open currently, for any day or time of the week. I like to make sure pets are well cared for and have someone to keep them company while their families are away. I enjoy spending time hanging out with animals.
About: I moved US 5 yearsago, my babies living with my family at my country. I have been taking care of a dog for about 15years and a cat for 13years. I’m currently working for 5 days a week but I can reschedule my work hours. Night care, day care and I can also be available for a few hours during the day. The site I live in has a special area for animals. I never close my room door and leave my pet outside while I sleep at night. I really miss my babies. I promise to take good care of your babies
About: What sets me apart is my deep love and experience with huskies—I’ve proudly cared for three generations of my grandma’s huskies ( and if you know about them is that you NEED love in your heart and patience overall so I can proudly say I can take care of any dog with any necesity), each with their own quirks and needs. Since 2020, I’ve been actively training and dog-sitting, and over time, it’s become more than a job—it’s a passion. My friends even call me their “911” for dog walks and puppy emergencies! I’ve helped guide many first-time puppy parents with easy, effective care tips and routines. On any given day, I’m surrounded by a joyful pack of up to 10 dogs, and nothing makes me happier than sharing my energy, patience, and love with every pup I meet. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine—I work online, which gives me a super flexible schedule with free mornings and evenings. That means I’m able to adapt perfectly to your dog’s needs, whether it’s early walks, playtime, feeding, or just some extra cuddles. Since I already care for a group of dogs daily, I’m used to creating a consistent, loving environment where every pup feels safe and happy. I love being active and outdoors, so spending quality time with dogs isn’t just doable—it’s the best part of my day. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or my client’s, I focus on making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable at all times. In my home, I keep a clean, spacious, and dog-friendly environment where pups can play, rest, and feel right at home—especially those with high energy like huskies. I follow feeding schedules, keep water fresh, and make sure each dog gets individual attention, from walks to enrichment time. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with the same care I give my own, sticking to their pet’s routines and preferences. I respect their space, keep communication open, and always leave things better than I found them. Whether it’s a puppy still learning or a senior dog that needs patience, I adapt and give them the love and structure they deserve.
About: Hi, my name is Sophie. I grew up in a house with 1 dog and 3 cats. I have always been an animal lover. I understand the attention and love they need. I have done many overnight watches with a 6 year old golden retriever, a couple weeks with 3 chihuahuas, and many drop ins for numerous cats and dogs. I currently work from home 3 days a week. I have time throughout the week to check in on pets or dog sit overnight during the workday when I am home and outside of the workday as well. I own a home in North Andover with lots of space in a quiet neighborhood. I do not have any pets of my own at my house. My husband also loves animals and we watch his parents dog from time to time. I understand the time and care needed for dogs and cats.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was young, but never got the opportunity to own one myself. I do have experience with dogs, including aggressive ones, anxious ones, seniors, and puppies. I’ve been trained on animal behavior and know how to correct inappropriate behavior. I worked full time at a pet board and daycare so I promise I understand dogs! I’m currently out of work due to some personal matters, but I am more than physically fit to take care of animals. I am pregnant and due in January, but that doesn’t stop me from being active! I currently do not offer pet care in my own home, but I do offer in-home pet care. Depending on your pet’s personality and their personal requirements I can pill pop medication, but I don’t do injectables. I can also bathe them if that is something you’re interested in. I do ask that if you have a reactive dog that you provide your own materials, whether it be a certain leash, collar, and/or muzzle while on a walk or during baths. Anything to make your pet more comfortable while in my care.
“We have a GSD who can be a hand full. Lixanne came over the house and met our pup and got acquainted with him. We felt she did a fantastic job watching him. We are very nervous when we have to leave our pup and looking back we are very happy with how she took care of him. If we ever need someone to watch our pup we will be using her. She was very accommodating to our needs and time frames.”
“This was our first time using Rover and Lindsay was great! She arrived on time, sent pictures during her visit and took great care of our puppy. We will definitely book again!”
About: Fostered 10 different dog breeds with Last Hope K9 whom were successfully adopted. Trained with several volunteers to learn how to care for the dogs in our house. We take the pups to dog parks, for walks, feed them, play with them. My dog Champ I adopted in 2021 and my sister’s dog Stanley who lives with us. He was one of my fosters and we just had to keep him in the family so my sister adopted him. 😁 My sister is also on Rover and we work together taking care of the pups at our house. My sister and I take care of dogs and have been for several years. We are very passionate for dogs and love caring for them and spending time with them. We have a yard with a fence to keep your dogs active and well cared for. We are dependable, trustworthy and we provide a safe environment for your pups.
About: I have had pet cats my whole life so I am very familiar with their care needs. I’m not as experienced in dog care but I know the basics and am always eager to learn more through experience! I currently work 4 days/week with a rotating schedule. I have full days off during the week as well as every other weekend off. On days i am working i am available for walks or drops ins after 6pm. My work schedule is not extremely consistent but I have that schedule 1 month in advance and update my calendar regularly to reflect my availability. As a pet owner I know how much trust is needed to allow someone to care for them. Whether it be pet sitting or letting them out for a potty break, I am dedicated to providing them the absolute best care and creating a safe and loving environment.
“Jessica is so sweet ! Buddy is anxious when left alone and was so reassuring to see how calm she was when we arrived home ..recommended Jessica highly will be requesting her for future dates !”

This was the first time I requested Eleanor, and I don't know why I haven't before. She was incredible, responding to the request quickly, saving Fin from a short walk with me. She communicated with me before her visit, was punctual and took to Fin right away. I will definitely call on her again.
Kamillye walked our dog, Luna on 3/18, showed up right on time, and sent over a number of pictures. Luna looked thrilled! I knew everything would be great after meeting Kamillye for a meet and greet. She was fantastic with Luna and I will definitely ask her to walk Luna again.
Amy is awesome!! She is very responsible and respectful! My dog loves when she comes by for his walks she sends lot of pictures and videos! She even fills up is water dish if low and if there is a package outside she always bring them in. I will be using Amy’s dog services hopefully for a long time! Thank you!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Andover is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $37 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 10,127 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Andover. 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 Andover. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Andover after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 Andover. On Rover:
- 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
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.
