“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!”
“Samantha is really good for my dog Nala, a 6y old husky. Will always text me before walk and let me know she is on her way and communication is good! Always have pictures from the walks with my girl”
“Emma did a fantastic job walking my 1 year old dog Jack. She was professional, on time, responsive, and kept me updated with pictures. Emma was available last minute and Jack loved going on a walk with her. I will definitely utilize her services again in the future and would highly recommend her!”
“Cooper is so communicative and goes above and beyond with my dog Clementine! I would highly recommend her and I’m looking forward to having her as a consistent dog walker for my pup!”
“Melissa was wonderful! She has such a strong, calm leader energy with my two German Shepherds — exactly what they need to respect and trust someone new. She also communicates really well, always letting me know when she’s home and how they’re doing. Thank you, Melissa ♡”
“Liz has been amazing to our Cash. He’s a stubborn teenager and gives her a hard time but she’s so good to him. If your pet is family like our boy is Liz is the walker/sitter you want! ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life, as my family has always had them. I love playing with dogs, taking them for walks, and helping them enjoy a beautiful day outdoors. I’m currently between jobs, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to care for your dog. I’m available for walks, playtime, and giving your pet plenty of attention throughout the day. I will keep your dog safe by following your instructions, using a secure leash, staying aware of our surroundings, and providing plenty of exercise, playtime, attention, and affection.
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’ve taken care of multiple types of animals and pets through sitting, volunteering at the humane society, and working at a petting zoo. I am an animal lover myself who is excited to interact with your pet and give them the love and care they need! I grew up with lots of pets and am loving spending time with everyone’s pets. I just moved to Boston and I miss my two cats and two dogs that are on the other side of the country. Would love the opportunity to share my love with your pets :) I’m currently doing school at nights twice a week so I have plenty of time to care for your pet. Available any day as needed! Send me a message and we can find a time that works best. I am able to spend time with your pet while being respectful of your space, knowing that animals thrive in an environment they are used to.
“We booked Fahad for a week of twice-a-day dog walks. Fahad did a great job with our Chihuahua mix. He was trustworthy, he paid careful attention to our requests and instructions, he communicated clearly and regularly, and he was really great with the pup. We will definitely book him again when we need a dog walker.”
About: I am a corporate gal with a work from home job who loves pets of all types and sizes. I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, horses, and chickens and have spent time volunteering at animal shelters and caring for others’ pets since I was very young. I work from home, so my schedule is very adaptable. I take meetings or draft documents all day, with plenty of breaks in between for play time, potty time, or exercise for your pets. Since I am home with your pet while I work, they will be very well supervised. I have experience working and living with escape artists and know how to handle sneaky little friends!
“Emily is reliable, consistent, and flexible. She provides thorough updates of her walks with pictures and feedback. I trust her 100% to care for my one year old Maltipoo, Milo. Highly recommended!”
“Elizabeth was so communicative and professional for a last minute dog walking gig! I felt like Bruce was in good hands and appreciated the attention that they gave to our pup! Will def book again.”
“Brooke is an excellent dog walker! I could tell from the moment she met my dogs, who are 2 high-energy rescues, that they felt at ease with her. She is professional, kind, and very skilled at walking my 2 crazy fur babies. We're so happy we found her!”

Haowen was great! He took my dog for a walk 3 times while my husband and I were away and our dog sitter was going to be away for long hours. He took many pictures, allowed our dog to go on a “sniffari” and made us feel reassured that he was taken care of while we were away from him.
Faith was the most helpful! We booked her last minute and she accommodated all of my questions/changes enthusiastically. Her love for our pups was felt from 300 miles away and the peace of mind she gave us that they were being well cared for meant the world. Will definitely book again! Thank you faith! Highly recommend!
Ardelia is terrific and has been taking excellent care of our two boys (terriers) Henry and Morgan. Ardelia quickly developed rapport with the boys, and has been excellent in her communication. Always on time and seems to genuinely enjoy our doggos and their quirky personalities. She also gives us informative updates about their walks. We feel fortunate to have Ardelia available to walk our sweet boys and highly recommend her services!
Carla is absolutely wonderful 10/10. She has been so reliable, kind, and attentive with my dog, and I always feel completely at ease knowing she’s in Carla’s care. It’s clear that Carla genuinely loves animals and takes the time to make sure my dog is happy and well cared for. She is also communicative and dependable, which I really appreciate. I would highly recommend Carla to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and all-around amazing dog walker!
Alexandra was an absolute pleasure to work with! She followed all of my instructions carefully, especially regarding the special needs of my Shih Tzu, which I really appreciated. I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in her care, and I could tell he genuinely enjoyed his time with her, especially all the treats!

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.

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.
