“I rebooked Haowen after a wonderful first experience with him, and I will continue to book with him when he is available! He did a wonderful job and my pup loves him.”
“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!”
“Tracy was so wonderful with our dog, Lola. She was great with communication. She arrived on time for each walk and sent photos /videos to me each time. I felt so relieved that Lola was in such caring hands. I would highly recommend Tracy and will use her again when I need a dog walker. Thank you!”
“Ren was amazing with Gronk. Super easy to communicate with, really thoughtful, and you can tell she genuinely cares. She took him on awesome walks and made sure he got plenty of cuddle time, which is very much his love language. I always felt like he was in great hands, not just being watched but actually cared for and happy. We’re so glad we found her and will definitely be having her back. Highly recommend.”
“Emily is an absolute joy to work with. She is punctual, kind, and patient. I have a pup who hesitates with new people but he adores her. I would 100% recommend her and use her again in the future !”
“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: I am a law student in Boston and am currently on summer break! I have a dachshund at home with special needs and have cared for many dogs throughout the years. I am very patient with dogs and enjoy taking them on walks and caring for them based on their needs. I understand every dog is different and will work with them individually. I am currently a law student on summer break. I am working Tuesdays-Fridays until 3:30 everyday. I am available after 3:30 on those days. I am available Saturday-Monday all day! I always ensure the safety of any pet that I care for by ensuring they always remain on a leash when outside and understanding their personalities around other dogs or how they react in certain environments. I always follow instructions by the pet owner to feed and care for them properly!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Chelsea
I had a great experience with Kara. She was friendly, professional, and easy to communicate with. Kara was punctual, sent updates, and made me feel completely comfortable knowing my dog was in good hands. I will definitely use her services again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy dog walker!
Steven walked my dog Dexter for about eight months, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He was always kind, professional, and genuinely cared about Dexter’s well-being. Both Steven and Tiffany were communicative, reliable, and flexible whenever schedules changed. We’re moving out of the neighborhood and are genuinely sad to be saying goodbye. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker.
Alicia is a superstar dog walker and we highly recommend her without any reservations. She meets the dogs at their level including running with our high energy labradoodle and cuddling/carrying our little Shih Tzu. They felt so much love and attention from Alicia. We appreciate you so much!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Chelsea on Rover is $24.42 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 10,570 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
- 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.
