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!

About: I've always been around animals growing up, from dogs to birds to horses, and everything in between. My neighborhood often sought me out when they needed a sitter, or just someone to stop in and throw a ball around. I am comfortable with dogs of all ages and sizes, and love learning about their individual personalities! I am comfortable taking animals on long walks, or keeping furry friends company while their family is away. Staying overnight does not bother me whatsoever, or dropping in at multiple times during the day. I know how special pets are and value their companionship. I look forward to working with pet owners and getting some animal love that I have been lacking in my life for a while! I’m a graduate student at Simmons University, but my schedule is very flexible and I am always willing to work with owners to make something work! I want your pet to feel as comfortable with me as with their family. When house sitting, I'm a stickler for details and ask lots of questions so that I can make the sitting experience comfortable for pets. I'm active and can keep up with pets that have high energy, but can also be a stay at home TV watcher for those types of pets as well!

About: I grew up with two English Setters and cared for them from their puppy years through their senior stages, giving me hands-on experience with dogs of all ages. I’ve also dog-sat many times for friends and neighbors and have experience walking multiple dogs at once, safely and confidently. I truly love animals and take pride in providing attentive, reliable, and loving care treating every pet like my own! I work a 9 to 5, so anytime before 9 AM, during lunchtime, and anytime after 5 PM, I am available. Weekends I typically am available all day long! I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own! I’ll always follow any instructions you have for walks, feeding, routines, or anything else they need. I’ll make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re with me. I also know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I’ll keep you updated and make sure they get plenty of attention and care!

About: I have been a dog Walker and sitter for about 8 years now, and I also have two dogs of my own that I love! I do have a full time job, where I work a hybrid schedule, so I am sometimes able to do mid day walks, evening walks, and also pet sitting over nights on weekends or weekdays. I walk my dogs everyday at least 3 times a day, and when I am dog walking for clients, I will give them as many walks as they need, for at least 20 minutes.

About: I’ve helped take care of my roommates and friends’ pets. I’m very active and will be happy to take your dog on walks. I also work at home so I’m available during the week. Although I have not had a dog myself, I have owned chickens and cared for them very well. Their personalities are honestly very dog like. I am self-employed and work at home so my schedule is very flexible. Would love to help take care your pet and would love the company I love in an apartment building with a patio which can be used for quick potty breaks. I live with my sister who would be thrilled to help pet-sit. Our parents never let us have a dog/cat growing up and having a pet full-time isn’t a good fit for us, so pet-sitting would be ideal.

Devon was able to walk Bebe, my dog, with less than an hour’s notice, and it was so incredibly helpful! She even fed her for me and kept me updated throughout the whole visit. I really appreciated how thoughtful and reliable she was. I’ll definitely be asking her to walk Bebe again whenever I need someone! 🥰

About: Howdy! My name is Natalie and any dog I've met I have loved like my own. Growing up I had my fluffy 90lb Labradoodle and two sweet guinea pigs. Aside from my own pup, neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk and feed their dogs and care for their cats. I currently have a full time job where I have to go into the office Monday-Thursday but an available for walks and drop-in on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I live in a small apartment in Brighton MA across the street from a wonderful reservoir and less than a mile away from several parks! I am a very active person so would be a great host for an athletic or active dog! However, if your dog is less active, I can easily bring my activity level to where your dog is happy and comfortable. I allow pets on my bed and couch, unless you prefer them not to.

About: Proud dog-owner for the past three years! Grew up in a house cosplaying as a petting zoo- cats, frogs, dogs, hamsters, you name it! Extremely flexible, willing to adapt, and excited to get to know your pets! Just a teacher trying to make enough money to have a career of not making enough money #fortheloveofthegame I currently teach full-time, so evenings and weekends provide the most availability. However, with summer around the corner, my availability will be expanding! After mid-May, I will have availability from 3:30 PM onwards. I currently live in an apartment in West Harlem with my 4-year old mutt. She warms up to most doggos, but an intro would be necessary! The apartment is near multiple parks, and I am located in a walkable area.

Hadley was great with Luther; she asked excellent questions about his likes/dislikes/habits at our meet and greet. She was also very understanding with me on a very chaotic weekend and was helpful in navigating the app for me in updating schedule for the first time. I hope we can work together again, as Luther really enjoyed time together. Thank you, Hadley!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Brighton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Brighton on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of September 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 .

As of September 2026, there are 10,880 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Brighton. 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 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.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 Brighton. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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.
