About: I have experience taking care of dogs from young pups through dogs in their final years, as well as cats of various ages. I grew up with 1-2 dogs in our household at all times, several bunnies for which I was the primary caregiver as a kid and teenager, and frequent interactions with my friends’ cats. I am a responsible oldest daughter and love meeting and caring for animals!! I work in an elementary school, so once the school year starts I will be busy from approximately 7am to 4pm each week day. I have a lot of availability on weekends and more daytime availability during the summer and school breaks. I always follow the pet parents’ instructions closely because they know their pets best. I treat all pets with care and love. In particular, with dogs, I enjoy taking them on long walks if they are up for it. While pet sitting, I make sure to spend time with the pets while I am not at work (not coming back simply for their care routine).
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for friends and family over the last 5 years. Responsible for 1-2 dogs at a time of all sizes 15-75lbs + cats. I’ve done walking, feeding, and over night stays up to a 10 days. Currently Hybrid work schedule which offers lots of flexibility to dog walk/sit. Most availability is from Friday-Monday. I go into the office located in Stoughton Tuesday-Thursday from 8-5pm and cannot provide afternoon drop ins on those days. I have experience caring for dogs in their own home (current apartment does not allow me to have dogs). I am clean and respectful and will follow alol instructions given.
About: Local dog (and cat!) experienced sitter/caregiver in Waltham MA with 9+ years of experience in walking, boarding, basic training and care for dogs of all types, breeds and personalities. Ready and excited to meet your special friend and help care for them over a visit, day, night boarding or week as needed. Excited to make new friends, human and canine, and expand our network in the community! References can be provided for experience and character. Prefer a short visit beforehand to get to know owners and pets. Can provide transportation by car to/from locations if required. Boarding longer than a week or dogs with special medical needs unfortunately not accepted at this time. Most visits/boardings will be one dog only for now. Looking forward to meeting you all soon! : ) I have a flexible work schedule at present so have time to take care of animals at home on a daily basis and am glad to take them in for just a night or longer-term as availability allows! I live in a third-floor walkup condo but there is plenty of open space and areas for walks right nearby and in an animal-friendly building allows great care and environment for your pets to stay with us! I currently work from home so we are very open to schedule activities/walks etc. according to your pets needs! Always available over text or phone for any questions, arragements or changes... If staying at your place to care after a dog, cat or other pets, we take utmost care to follow your instructions, needs and care for both your property home and pets and always available for communication.
“Melissa is fabulous! One of my dogs is anxious and afraid of new people, but she was so patient with him, and now she is one of his favorite people. She figured each of my dogs out quickly (one responds to petting, one to play) and now they both get so excited when I mention her name. Highly recommended!!”
“Really excellent, did everything we asked and arrived right on time. Super professional and great energy for meeting and taking care of dogs she's never met. Will definitely be using her services again!”
“Eliza has been walking my dog Tilly for a few weeks and has been doing a great job. Tilly is a "wallflower" and a tough cookie to crack and this is the first time she's had to have a walker that is not me nor my wife. Eliza was very patient with Tilly for the first few days while she was becoming more comfortable with a stranger. Eliza has been reliable every single day and has always been on time. She sends a detailed report about the walk and what Tilly was like, photos, and makes sure Tilly has enough water after dropping her off. Overall, Eliza is the first person I will think of when I need the extra help.”
About: I have taken care of not only my own dog , but many others when needed for the past 5+ years, feeding, walking, and etc. I am currently a student, but I am usually available most weekday afternoons and weekends! As a student in college, I have gained lots of responsibility and experience. I have a lot of outdoor space with a fence, access to good walking trails, dog parks, and the ability to keep them well maintained.
About: I am warm caring and protective! I will make sure your pet has everything it needs!!! I can go on walks with it, put it on a pouch and show it around, cuddle and pet it. Teach him tricks!!! And reward it with treats accordingly. I have a car, live near playgrounds and shopping plazas. I can take it to doggy play date parks in Brookline. I can take naps with it and provide nice companionship!!! I love dogs, and have a few favorites. They are; Yorkies, shitzus, teacup poodles. But I am super nice to all kinds I take on for care. So, you can feel safe leaving your canines with me. Feel free to drop them off or have me dog sit them! It allows me to structure my day to assign time for the dog"s daily activities. I combine both mine and theirs. I make sure they are well taken care of! I love small dogs the best! I look at their care info, and follow through all aspects of it! I also engage them in fun interactions with me. They usually have a blast!
“Traci has been perfect for our girl. We are so grateful that she was able to take Cora for a walk on such short notice. She then helped create a plan for us as we only adopted Cora a week ago! We look forward to hopefully many more walks with Traci.”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats of all ages for over 15+ years. I treat every animal as if they are my own and truly love spending time with them. I’d love to help you out and care for your pet! I have a very flexible schedule with remote work and school. I can adjust my schedule as needed to best fit your and your pet’s needs. I would be happy to meet you and your pet in advance, if that’s something you prefer! I feel comfortable caring for pets of all ages and abilities.
About: I’ve taken care of my dog since I was 13, taking her out for walks, parks, and appointments. We love going on strolls just as much as cuddling on the couch! I have also had cats for the past 18 years so I can also navigate relationships between the two. I work 3 days or night a week as a nurse so I have ample days off with lots of opportunity to walk dogs. And even on the days I do work I have time before or after if needed. I love to greet my dog with lots of care and love. I often feed her treats and am constantly chatting to her to make her feel included!
About: I have taken care of pets my entire life! I am lucky to have cared for pets across their entire lives, from puppy/kitten to lovely senior pets. I am currently volunteering at a cat shelter in Boston and would love to bring that experience to your pets. I love pets of all shapes and sizes, but I absolutely adore caring for big dogs and shy cats. I volunteer at a cat shelter in Boston three days a week, but I am otherwise free all throughout weekdays to look after your pets! I am happy to do morning or midday visits to take special care of your pets. I think it is incredibly important that caring for pets does not disrupt their regular habits or schedule! It's so important to gain the trust of people's pets in order to properly care for them, and so I will do everything I can to make sure that your pets feel safe and comfortable while I make sure their needs are met.
About: I have been a life long dog and cat lover. For my younger years, I grew up with a dog, Molly who I chose for my 12th birthday. She was a bichon and poodle mix but after 16 years, she passed away. We now have 2 sibling cats, Sophie and Oliver who are great! Other than my owns pets I have cared for the below: -Neighbor's American Bully (Waltham, MA) -Neighbor's Dog (Poodle) and Cat (Salem, MA) -Brother's German Short Hair Pointer (Pepperell, MA) I am a Remote Sales Representative where I am able to set my own schedule and work from where ever I have a internet and a cell phone signal Would prefer to care for pets in their own home but could possibly be open to caring for them in my own home if necessary. I can easily crate your pet if needed and will take them on plenty of walks throughout the day. Both dogs and cats under my care will receive lots of love and attention.
About: I'm a musician & nonprofit administrator (WFH) with flexibility in my schedule and a lot of love and care to give! My late dog was reactive and I constantly had to be attuned to her emotional state, so I understand the nuances of dog personalities, though every dog teaches me something new. I have previously fostered dogs as well. I grew up with horses, dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, and hamsters, and aspired to be an equine vet once upon a time! I am a freelancing musician and also have an admin job - if I am not away traveling, I am almost always home and flexible with my schedule. My home is very quiet, no other pets, and no kids. It is on the 2nd floor via stairs. There are great walking routes nearby including the river, and we can discuss taking your dog for runs or trail outings depending on your dog's training.

Ari was amazing with Aslan! He was very responsible, always on time, and quick to respond to messages. He kept me updated throughout the walks, which I really appreciated. Aslan really liked him and had a great time! I’m very happy with his care and would definitely book with him again. Highly recommend!
Zach was wonderful, attentive and very communicative during our weeklong trip to Houston and Florida. He kept me updated, followed Pintu’s routine, and gave him plenty of attention and exercise. I came home to a happy dog and a clean house. I would definitely recommend Zach to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.
Sue has helped us with our big boy Hugo on several occasions, coming into our house and taking him out for a long walk around our neighborhood, then feeding and playing with him for a bit. She is reliable, trustworthy, prompt and great with our boy. I highly recommend Sue to anyone looking for some help with their fur baby.
Finding someone who can handle a rowdy, high-energy 7-month-old German Shepherd puppy is no easy task, but Michelle handles him like an absolute pro! She is patient, reliable, and fantastic with energetic working breeds and my pup Nyx had a blast. I can count on her to give him a great walk and peace of mind while I'm away.
We were so grateful that Yi could take care of our Baxter when we were out all day! We messaged her in a pinch the night before, and she responded almost immediately letting us know that she could take Baxter for a walk and check in on him. She sent a full update, videos and photos, and even spent some extra time with him practicing some training! We’re already looking forward to her help housesitting on our upcoming trip, because we know our pets will be in such great hands!! 😊

The average cost of Dog Walking in Auburndale is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 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.

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 Auburndale. 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 Auburndale 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 Auburndale. 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.
