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.
“Savannah was able to pick up a last minute booking on a holiday weekend and even cleaned up a mess my boy made while making sure I knew it wasn’t a big deal. Love to be able to not worry while I’m out!”
“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!”
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.

“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!”
“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.”
About: I’m a mom of 3 cats ever since I was 20. I learned how to take care of them by their reactions. I also have experience taking care of ill cats. I’m a freelancer work during the day. I’m free before 10am and after 3pm on weekdays. But schedule can change if needed. Weekends are always welcome. I will be very respectful to clients’ properties. And I will record myself the time I’m in the room with their beloved friends. Definitely respect the pets too.
“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 !”
“Yecsit cared for my giant breed dog for a week while I was away by visiting 3X daily to walk, feed and play with her. All went well. It was helpful to receive the visit updates through Rover.com. I have no complaints, only compliments!”
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: 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
“Amazing, very helpful and super friendly! Susan was available to help me in short notice and responded very quickly, she really helped me out when I was in a bind. She even sent me some awesome pictures of my dog while on walks with updates along the way! Extremely trustworthy, reliable, and dedicated to doing a great job! Highly recommend her for all of your pet needs!!”
“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 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

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Chelsea
Lauren (Ashley) did an amazing job taking care of our fur babies while we were away for the weekend! She exercised them thoroughly, made sure they ate and pottied, cuddled them and was very mindful of their anxiety with Fourth of July fireworks, and kept us updated the whole time.
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!

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.

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.
