“Elizabeth has been awesome with Toby. She’s been coming twice a week to walk him and although he’s a little scaredy-cat and sometimes doesn’t want to walk very far, she is very patient and will go at his own pace. Toby loves her and we can’t speak more highly of her kindness and work ethic. We hope to have a very long relationship with Elizabeth.”
“Aliaksandra was lovely and incredibly helpful with walking my dog, Kona. She gave a detailed report of their walk with photos and her communication was great. She took such good care of my pup and I would recommend her to anyone.”
“It was our first time using Caitlin and she was punctual and attentive to our Cannoli and she did a great job keeping us informed about her visit with him. I would definitely use Caitlin again!”
“Zuzana was fantastic with my French Bulldog Boomer while I was on vacation in Cape Cod. She walked him 4 times in 2 days while I was sightseeing in places that wouldnt allow dogs. She was always on time and gave me wonderful progress reports, including water refills and belly rubs! My boy Boomer abaolutely loved her. Highly recommend Zuzana!!!”
About: Hi, I’m Jenny! I’m thrilled to meet your canine, feline, or even small animal best friend. Growing up surrounded by animals, I’ve cared for dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, and guinea pigs. I’ve also fostered cats, boarded dogs, and taken courses in animal behavior and cognition, giving me a solid foundation in understanding pets’ needs. I work from home, which allows me to provide flexible and personalized care for your pet. Whether it’s walks to a nearby park, playtime or adhering to your pet’s specific routine, I’m here to make sure your furry friend feels at home. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Whether you need daily visits, overnight care, or last-minute help, my flexible schedule allows me to provide the attention your pet deserves. Weekends and holidays? No problem—I’m here for you! Happy to take care of your pet the way you need (e.g., crate, no crate, bathroom outings every 2 hours, scheduled meals, etc.). I’m very flexible and will work with you on any special requests.
About: I love all kinds of fur babies! They aren't just pets; they’re family. I have had dogs of my own for 35 years and grew up around them. I have the patience for puppy care and consistency needed to help them learn life skills like house training. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I enjoy staying active, organized, and spending time with animals. I make time throughout the day for walks, feeding schedules, playtime, bathroom breaks, and giving pets attention and companionship. I’m able to plan my schedule around a pet’s needs to make sure they receive consistent care, exercise, and supervision. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, so I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I care for pets by making sure they stay on their normal routine as much as possible and receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and maintaining a clean and comfortable environment. I also provide companionship so pets feel less stressed while their owners are away, and I keep owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind.
“Chelsea was great with our dog Gracie while we visited the Cape on vacation. Chelsea stopped by to walk Gracie and was a great communicator. I loved her pics and report!”

About: I am a very active 49 year old mom with adult children and two small dogs. I grew up with animals my whole life, and my family even owned a chain of pet stores when I was growing up, where I worked. My family is packed with doctors and vets. I move to the Cape full time and am available to walk dogs, house sit, and board small to medium sized animals in my home in Orleans. We have a fenced in backyard and lots of space to run on the beach. I work remotely, part-time as an attorney and set my own schedule. My true love is animals! My flexibility gives me plenty of time to care for pets, in your home, in mine, or just for a walk. I take my dogs for a daily run to on the beach and am happy to take along another. I can also care for your dog alone in your home (and leave mine home with my amazing family). Finally, I am available for walking your pup, most days in your neighborhood or mine. We have an acre of land and half is fenced in for dogs. We have extra cages if desired. Ours never enjoyed their crates. We will follow your schedule and treat your pet like a member of the family. We invite interviews in advance to ensure we are the right fit for your pet.
“Nikki was amazing. I was nervous because I had just pulled my dog out of a bad sitter situation. She was available last minute, took the time to talk to me for a while, was validating and reassuring and made me confident my dog was in good hands. She showed up as promised, was so sweet and professional, and great with the pup. Can't thank you enough for stepping in a a tough time, and taking such good care of us. 💜”
About: As a CPDT-KA certified trainer, I offer dog walking services that go beyond basic exercise. Each walk incorporates training and enrichment tailored to your dog’s unique needs. My expertise is ideal for dogs who are fearful, nervous, hyper, or reactive—especially those other walkers may find challenging. A training walk is a perfect way to advance your dog’s progress when your schedule is too packed for regular training sessions. Please note: My walking services are not suitable for aggressive dogs. If you’re dealing with aggression, please contact me directly or explore my specialized training services. I offer training walk services Monday through Friday, with both daytime and evening availability. For the best results, I recommend scheduling two sessions per week, such as Monday/Tuesday or Wednesday/Thursday. I exclusively use positive reinforcement techniques to care for and train dogs, whether during training walks or in your home. My focus is on creating a safe, encouraging environment that builds trust and confidence in your dog. Each session is tailored to meet your dog’s unique needs while reinforcing good behaviors in a kind and effective way. With this approach, I ensure your dog feels supported and thrives in their routine.
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats and reptiles my whole life. I am a reliable, English teacher who loves long walks after school with my dog! In the summer, I have a lot of time available. Teaching has always been my passion and it definitely helps me become a patient caretaker to my dog and the lovable pets I watch! I currently have summers off due to my teaching schedule. During the school year I am available anytime after 4pm on weekdays and anytime on weekends. I can easily crate your pet if needed- we also have a fenced in yard that easily holds both of our medium sized dogs. 🐾

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 Harwich. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
walkers on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
