“Sabrina is awesome! She is great with communication, super supportive with maintaining our normal schedules and rules, and always sends pictures and updates! I love knowing that my dog is getting loving care while I am at work :)”
“Kelly came over for an initial meet and greet and quick walk. She was on time, friendly, and easy to communicate with, and we’d be happy to have her care for Lewis in the future.”
About: From family pets and friends' pets to having a dog of my own, I have had the pleasure of spending time with some pretty incredible animals. Born and bred in Boston and a true lover of New England, your animals could not be in better hands. I pride myself on hard work and determination, so rest assured you will come home to a very tired and happy family member. Caring for your animal is my utmost priority. Whether you need short or long visits, I will quickly become a trusted provider of animal care and your pet’s new best friend. Caring for your animal is my utmost priority. Whether you need short or long visits, I will quickly become a trusted provider of animal care and your pet’s new best friend. I promise adventures, cuddles on the couch, and overall mutual enjoyment. Working for you I will follow whatever you believe is necessary to insure security of your pets, personal belongings and a place you call home. I am happy to set the alarm, lock the door or anything in between to insure maximum safety of your prized possessions.
“Zilalai is so great with my large husky! She learned the commands he knows and uses them for him. This helps us so much, and him, with sticking with routine. It’s a breath of fresh air to have Zilalai!”
“Yeojin walked my very large (80 lbs) and energetic puppy over New Years weekend and he was very well taken care of. Each day he was very happy and content when I returned from work. Would highly recommend Yeojin as a dog walker.”
“Laura has been a reliable and caring dog walker and sotter. She listens to any special requests for your pets and treats them like her own family. I would highly recommend her services!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets and animals since as far back as I can remember! Once I got my very own pets (a dog and two cats) outside of my family home, it became a whole new world of understanding what it takes to train and care for fur babies. My sweet Aussie, Poppy, like most, is high-energy and anxious, but getting her at just 8 weeks old gave me the opportunity to dive into the world of dog behaviorism and training. She has come leaps and bounds from the over-excited, reactive pup she was, and the work that goes into helping a dog feel more calm and confident in the world means a lot to me. I've worked with dog trainers and have researched for countless hours to understand how and why dogs and cats behave the way they do to give my own the best lives possible, and I would love to take the same care with your own fur baby! I have a flexible WFH schedule on Mondays and Thursdays, as well as weekend availability, that gives me the opportunity to fit in extra walks / visits with new fur babies! I'm comfortable administering medication, crating dogs, cleaning litter boxes, etc. as needed! If it has to do with the day-to-day for cats or dogs, it's all good with me! I do appreciate detailed instructions to make sure that I take the best possible care to follow the routines you already have in place with your pets :)
“Sydney is absolutely great with our dog Jack! She’s always on time, provides updates, and genuinely enjoys her time with him. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for dog walking services!”
“I want to express my sincere gratitude for the excellent service provided by Dante. Always punctual and responsible. Dante has cared for our puppy with love and dedication. It gives it was a relief to know that he was in the hands of someone trustworthy. Thank you very much for taking care of him. I recommend Dante without hesitation.”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and have been caring for cats and dogs on Rover for about three years. I also shared my life with a beautiful cat for 16 years, and through her health challenges, I learned a lot about patience, empathy, and attentive care. I believe the key to connecting with animals is to respect and appreciate them in a gentle, thoughtful way, that’s what allows me to build real trust and closeness with them. I am a graduate student with relatively flexible schedules. I will be available during day times when I am not having classes and most of the nights. I can offer cat sitting, giving food and medicine, socialization, cleaning the litter, etc. I can also walk, groom and give food to small and medium sized dogs.
“She was very kind and accommodating. Communication with her was very easy. We were able to schedule in an additional walk. My dogs seemed to have had a good time.”
“Maegan took such good care of our pup! She was sick this week, and we were devastated to have to leave her. But Maegan was sweet to her and made us feel so much better. We really appreciate her!!!”
“Kaitlin was quick to reach out about Pep making some unusual sounds and we were able to troubleshoot it together. I appreciate her being so thoughtful and kind to my pup.”
About: Dogs have always been my passion. I grew up with my Shih-Tzu/Chihuahua mix, Kiba, and cared for him for 13 wonderful years — from the day he was born to the day he passed. I walked him, bathed him, groomed him, and showered him with love every single day. I’ve also worked as a dog bather, caring for pups of all sizes and personalities — from tiny playful poodles to gentle, strong Akitas. No matter their breed or age, I treat every dog like the loving, loyal friend they are, giving them the patience, care, and affection they deserve. I work two part-time jobs and freelance in sound design, so I like to dedicate Sundays and Mondays after 12pm to walking and spending time with pups. During that time, I focus entirely on your dog — walks, playtime, and plenty of love. I’ll make sure your furry friend feels happy, cared for, and part of the family while we hang out. I can pet sit no problem, but I'll just have to know further in advance! When I care for dogs, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I watch their energy and comfort level, let them explore and sniff, give lots of praise and pets, and make sure they get the exercise they need. Every walk is a chance for fun, bonding, and showing them the care and attention they deserve.
About: Hi there! I’ve been caring for animals my whole life—dogs, cats, bunnies, fish… you name it! Growing up as the go-to pet sitter in my New Hampshire hometown, I’ve had the joy of looking after pets of all kinds, ages, sizes, and personalities. Now based in Boston, I’m excited to connect with new furry friends and provide them with the same love and attention I’d give my own. I’m patient, responsible, and truly passionate about animals. Whether your pet needs a walk, a cuddle buddy, or just someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’m here to help! Let’s make your pet’s day a little brighter! I’m currently a graduate student, with most of my classes and commitments happening Monday through Wednesday. That means I’m wide open Thursday through Sunday to spend quality time with your pets! I also have flexibility throughout the week, so if you need a quick drop-in or walk outside of those days, just reach out—I’m happy to make it work! My experience caring for pets has taught me that safety always comes first. Whether we’re at home or out for a walk, I’m always mindful of the little things that make a big difference—double-checking that doors are secure, food is stored safely, leashes are properly fastened, and any potential hazards are out of reach. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority every step of the way.
“Fiona has a great rapport with my dog and she’s so good at being flexible working around my schedule! She’s professional and timely communicating. She’s made a huge difference in my dogs quality of life and I’m so grateful for her!”

Susie saved us for last minute walks with my partner’s broken leg and me out of town for work. She was so patient to meet tulip, who’s been protective of the home with partner injury barking at strangers entering our home. She knelt down and calmly waited for tulip to settle and then did some tricks/commands before taking her out to walk to develop trust in tulip. Thanks !
I’m so happy we found Jeremy to care for our dog! He is attentive and very communicative. I also loved that he thinks ahead of time. For example knowing it would rain he asked us to leave a towel to dry Jackson knowing he would get wet. We’ll definitely ask for his services again!
Kaylor is a fabulous dog walker! He walked my dog Margot 3x per week for the past year, and he is dependable, always coming within the time block we requested; he is an excellent communicator, always letting me know if something came up last minute that would change the schedule. He was great with Margot's occasional stubbornness, as well as with the snow, heat, and rain. Highly recommend!!
Nicholas has walked my dog, Bebe, a few times, and he’s been great every time! He always accommodated my last minute requests, which I really appreciated. He’s also very thoughtful, for example, he towel dried Bebe after walking her in the rain. Bebe seems to really like him, and I’ll definitely be using him again in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Brighton on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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 Brighton. 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 Brighton.

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 Brighton. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
