Haowen has been a communicative and reliable dog walker for my pup Henry! Henry is usually slow to warm up to men, but was so happy when they met! Haowen has gone the extra mile to refill Henry’s water when dropping him off.

Arianna was incredible with our doggo Padme. Our dog can be a little sassy at times and will refuse to continue on walks unless she is treated (we have spoiled her!) but Arianna kept Padme moving and they had a great time. Really appreciate her working with dogs that have their own mind!

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes since I was 10. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets like my own. I’m experienced with puppies, senior dogs, and high-energy pets, and I’m always reliable and communicative. Pet care easily fits into my daily and weekly routine. I offer daytime services like drop-ins, walks, and playtime, and I plan my schedule around the pets I care for. I’m dependable, flexible, and make sure each visit is focused, fun, and tailored to the pet’s needs—whether that’s a long walk, feeding, or some one-on-one attention. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or theirs, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I stick closely to their usual routines—meal times, potty breaks, walks, and playtime—to reduce stress while their owners are away. I always follow any specific instructions, from medications to feeding preferences, and I give regular updates and photos to keep pet parents in the loop. I’m clean, respectful of the home, and make sure every pet feels at ease while in my care.

Yuting has done such an amazing job with my puppy Macy over the last month. She has consistently been on time to take Macy on her weekly walks and goes above and beyond to make sure she has water after the walks and treats to help ease her anxiety prior to her leaving. She is great with communication; always checking in and confirming times for walks. She is very flexible and often is able to accommodate needs on a short notice. She has been nothing short of amazing and I highly recommend her! (P.S. She's great with puppies!)

Samantha is a great communicator and caretaker. Samantha is a regular dogwalker for my medium/large rescue lab/shepherd mix named Tofu, who has some level of anxiety. Samantha always updates me if there are changes in schedule or with Tofu’s behaviors during the walk. Samantha also asks questions and is attentive to Tofu’s needs, and has been building a positive consistent relationship. Thank you, Samantha for giving Tofu the exercise he needs!

About: Cats and exotics are my niche! With extensive experience fostering and rescuing animals, I'm comfortable caring for everyone from kittens to senior cats, including administering oral medications, inhalers, and insulin/injection medications for diabetic or medically-needy pets. I'm also happy to help with baths and nail clipping. I also specialize in exotic and unconventional companions: snakes, frogs, toads, reptiles, tarantulas, bugs, rats, birds, and other small mammals. Just walk me through their routine and care needs, and I'll take it from there with confidence and attention to detail. Whether your pet needs medical care, grooming, specialized handling, or just a comfortable routine while you're away, I'm here to help. 💖 I'm dependable and adaptable, ready to work around your schedule to give your pets the care they need. I understand routine matters, so I'll follow their normal feeding and medication schedule closely to keep things as consistent as possible while you're away. I'm more than happy to visit your home to care for your pets in their own familiar environment, no need to disrupt their routine. I'm also available for overnight stays, whether you need someone for a single night or a full week away. Your pets' comfort and consistency come first, and I'll make sure they're happy, healthy, and well cared for the entire time you're gone.

About: My pet care experience comes from having my own pets, caring for family and friends, volunteering, and working as a veterinary technician. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments, including shy, anxious, young, and senior pets. I’m skilled in administering medications and vaccines, and I create a calm, safe, and loving environment, tailoring attention and activities to each pet’s individual needs so they feel happy and comfortable while you’re away. I work from home so I have flexible availability. Im available for multiple walks a day if needed or even pop up if you needed someone to check in on your fur baby. I have a friendly dog who will play with your pup or take naps for those who are passed the puppy stage. I can do light basic training

About: I’m the guy in a crowd your dog will want to meet. I grew up with dogs and want them to feel as comfortable with me as they are at home with you. I’m available most days and times, and with sufficient notice and proximity, can be flexible for your pet care needs. Overnight and boarding is negotiable. I live in a dog-friendly community with a park across the street. No other pets live in my home, so your fur baby will feel safe and secure. Your pet will get a playdate and exercise during our visit with me.

Juliana is great!!! She goes the extra mile in making sure both you and your pet feel comfortable which is important to me. My dog can come off strong but she didn’t let that scare her off, she was patient and gave him time to get used to her. Now he loves her and gets excited to hear her name!! As long as it’s okay with Juliana, I’d like to keep her around for a while!! Definitely recommend!!

About: I love animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I’ll take care of your dog or cat as if they were my own. I’m also a pet parent myself - I have a British Shorthair cat named Bella, and she means the world to me. Because of that, I completely understand how important it is to feel confident and at ease when leaving your pet with someone else. I have experience walking dogs and caring for pets through Wag, where I hold a 5-star rating. I’ve been doing pet care part-time and have completed a variety of services, including home visits, cat sitting, dog sitting, and daily walks. I’ve also done longer stays (4–7 days), so I’m comfortable handling routines, feeding schedules, and giving pets plenty of companionship. Your pet will be safe, loved, and well cared for with me - and we’ll definitely enjoy our time together. I currently have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week. Since I’m not working full-time right now, I’m able to give your pets lots of attention, playtime, and consistent care. I can easily adjust to your pet’s routine and needs. I always prioritize safety. I make sure doors are closed securely, pets don’t slip outside, and dogs are always taken out on a leash. I follow your feeding instructions exactly and never give pets anything outside their normal diet. I keep their space clean, calm, and comfortable so they feel safe while you’re away.

About: Hi I'm Christian I live near airport station. I've been walking small and large dogs for years for family and friends as a hobby and part time in different companies. Looking forward to do something I'm passionate about while making a few dollars. I work for wag as well,and am finding the more I do this type of work the more I want to take on. It's one of those jobs you never dread going to because it's what you care about doing so trying comes effortlessly. I encourage people to request me if they want someone with experience and enthusiasm. Available usually weekdays throughout the day and afternoon,and some weekends during the day. Currently am working flexible part-time jobs and am willing to accommodate request. Looking to make the experience a good fit for both you and me. I have a fenced yard in the back and a calm pet free place inside. The location is easy to find and have plenty of experience with other pets at this location. I do freelance part-time jobs,and some per diem jobs, so I have plenty of time to take care of any pets I'm boarding or sitting. I have a porch ,small backyard area and the pet/s can roam free throughout the apartment. Also a park down the st I can take them too if you wanted me to.

About: I have always had my own dogs and cats throughout my life. I now find myself without a pet and really miss my own pups! Also, I have been working with a Service Dog Trainer in order to train those hard-working dogs! It has been very rewarding, and I also would like to help you with anything that you need help with to allow your dog be the best dog they can be. I am currently working on my training certification full time but since my schedule is flexible, I can meet the time needs of your pet. I am working towards my Training Certification which has been really exciting for me. I will always walk your dog on his/her leash unless I am advised otherwise. I live near a few parks but also enjoy dog walking at the Beach. Dog socialization is important, but your pet's safety and happiness is paramount to me. I live alone so I can devote all of my attention to your pet

She sent regular updates, adorable photos, and thoughtful messages that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Her home was clean and she only takes one dog at a time. When I picked up my dog, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly had an amazing stay. It's obvious she genuinely love animals and treat every pet like their own.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Chelsea

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Chelsea 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 10,363 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Chelsea. 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 Chelsea. 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 Chelsea.

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 Chelsea. 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.
