“Sarah looked after our 2 dogs and took good care of them while we were away. She sent pictures every day and we really appreciated that. She even brought her family to walk our dogs. Maxy and Kyro looked happy and together with the report cards making us feel at ease. Definitely recommend Sarah.”
“Had a great first experience using this dog walker. We did a quick meet/greet before the scheduled walk that went well. Will definitely use for future walks!”
“Sarah is hands down the best choice for dog walking! Sarah has made sure that my dog has taken her medication on days she spits it out in her bowl, always makes sure she has water, and is cognizant of how much a dog can handle in weather extremes. She sends detailed updates that I look forward to every day, and with some pretty sweet pics too! I can’t say enough good things about Sarah. Professional, reliable, consistent, and a true dog lover. She lets my dog set the pace of the walk and leaves time for lots of sniffs and rolling in the grass, evidence of a happy dog. If you’re looking for a dog walker you can trust in your home and with your pets, look no further!”
“Kylie has been so great working with my dog Knox! She is reliable, responsible and caring which has led Knox to feel comfortable with her. She also takes the time to leave the best Rover Cards with details and tons of pics from their walks, which I really enjoy seeing while I’m out at work!”
“Alexis did an amazing job with our dog, Duke. She took great care of him, giving him plenty of exercise and feeding him while we were away. We will definitely use Alexis in the future!”
About: I’ve worked in doggy daycare, I’ve trained my grandmother’s puppy, ✨I have a certificate in basic knowledge of dog body language✨, will clean up all accidents, I’m comfortable & capable of taking care of all dog sizes, and most importantly - I will make sure your furry friend has the best time! I’m extremely loving towards dogs and super passionate in making sure they’re happy :) After all, they unconditionally care for us - it’s only fair we give them the same respect. I take great pleasure in making sure your companion is safe and fully fended for while you’re away! I work a part-time job currently, but I get to choose my own schedule and can tailor it to fit your needs! I’m also a full-time college student but have acclaimed time management skills. *Please note that Rover only lets me choose day availability. You may request a day that appears open, but my availability is dependent on the specific times that you select.* I’ll feed your pet/s, frequently give water when needed, make sure they get playtime, take them outside to go potty (or help them to go inside if you prefer pads), give treats on good behavior (if permitted), and overall make sure you have a happy pup :)
“Kate did an amazing job walking our senior dog! She accepted our booking at a short notice and was very friendly and easy to work with. Our dog loves her. Highly recommend!”
“Su was absolutely wonderful with Giro. Giro, that is usually poo shy with new people very quickly felt very comfortable 😃 which is a wonderful sign. Thank you Su! We would definitely love to have you walk Giro again”
“Great with communication! Lucy agreed to my last minute booking and was kind enough to make a meet and greet happen given tight schedules. My plans fell through last minute so I no longer needed her service, but I would absolutely try again!”
“Denzel was excellent! He was very communicative, did everything we asked, and was very patient and kind when our pup was initially nervous when he came over. He kept us informed and sent pictures. We would definitely recommend him and will be reaching out again!”
About: I have taken care of friends’ dogs during trips and overnight visits, feeding, playing with, and walking them. I love spending time with pets and am open to caring for any type of dog. I’m currently looking for temporary work and have a lot of free time! Available for day visits as well as overnight, whatever is needed. I am a gentle and adaptable animal lover and I enjoy playing with, caring for, and spending time with dogs and cats of all kinds.
“Sydney is absolutely great with our dog Jack! She’s always on time, provides updates, and genuinely enjoys her time with him. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for dog walking services!”
“Melissa is great! She takes my elderly dog for a walk on my one long day away from the house. She always gives me a lot of info on how my old girl did and sends me the cutest pictures of her rolling around in the grass at the park and playing with other dogs. She also feeds my girl lunch and gives my cat a little snuggle too! I would definitely recommend her!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Dedham
Sarah exceeded our expectations. This was our first time leaving our girls with a stranger. In fact, we’ve never been completely comfortable leaving our girls with anyone. Sarah immediately put us at ease. She was absolutely amazing with them, and most importantly, they loved her! It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were happy and well cared for. We wouldn’t hesitate to have her care for them again.
Giuliana was amazing! I booked her last minute to walk my 4 year old Mini Bernedoodle. She made time to come over for a visit the day before to ensure a smooth transition. I could tell my dog Cruz loved her right away. Giuliana is reliable and communicative, describing the walk and care. She sent adorable pictures, one of our cat as well which we really appreciated. We absolutely will book with her again and highly recommend to others! Thanks Giuliana!
Callie and Thor love walking with Mengyao!! Grandma says they get so excited when she walks in the door and they come back from their walks nice and tired!! I got great updates and pictures from the walks that we knew they were well taken care of!! I highly recommend Mengyao for your dog walking needs- she is amazing!!
First time introducing our dog Tsuki to Thomas and Emma and it went extremely well! Our dog takes a while to warm up to new people, but it didn’t take long for her to play with them and ask for pets. Tsuki enjoyed a great fetch session with Emma today. I’m sure she will enjoy the next ones as much!
Mollie was so wonderful with our dog! We were upstairs when Mollie arrived, and hearing our dog be so excited to see her and Mollie be so excited in return was so sweet. Millie is communicative and gave us great updates and fun photos. Will certainly continue to ask her to care for our pup!
Kayla was easy to communicate with, sent some super cute pictures of the walk and was great letting us know how our new pup did on the walk with her new pup friends on their walk. She followed all directions for our pups routine very well! Definitely recommend her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Dedham on Rover is $27.75 per walk (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 11,536 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Dedham. 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 Dedham. 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 Dedham.
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 Dedham. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
