My family, neighbors, and friends have all relied on me to take care of their pets over the years, whether it's for walks, check-ins, or overnights, and I would love to do the same for your pet. I'm a college student and have plenty of time during the week for quick check-ins and walks, and I will be able to stay overnight most weekdays and on weekends.

About: I am no stranger to the animal world. I have been active in the horse world since five years old. I have over fifteen years of hands on experience with animals of all shapes and sizes; Dogs, cats, horses, livestock, chickens and other various farm animals. I have experience training dogs and a love for working with older rescues! Taking care of the four dogs, horses, and chickens at home requires us to be up by 7 in the morning. My weekend work schedule can be quite busy during the summer seasons, and my weekly schedule tends to be constant yet unpredictable. Please feel free to ask about the scheduling details, as I am very flexible. We have spacious runs, 30 to 60 feet long, and across the road, there are hundreds of acres of trails for our animals to explore. Our mission is to keep them engaged and active, as their world is shaped by what we provide. With plenty of stimulation, we can effectively manage behavior and craft positive relationships.

I would be happy to play with your dogs outside, take them for walks, and even just keep them company.
About: Hi! I’m Jon, a dependable, active dog lover based in Beverly. Whether your dog needs a quick potty break, a long walk to burn off energy, or just some company while you’re away, I’m here to help. I’m a lifelong dog owner and currently have an 11-year-old pup named Baxter, so I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your best friend. I know every dog has a different personality, pace, and routine, and I take the time to make sure they’re comfortable and happy. Outside of dog walking, I work full-time in leadership, where reliability, communication, and responsibility are part of my everyday life. You can count on me to be on time, attentive, and to treat your dog with the same care I’d want for my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pup!! I’m primarily available on weekends for walks, drop-in visits, and pet care. I can also accommodate weekday requests with advance notice whenever my schedule allows. If you don’t see a time that works, feel free to reach out—I’m happy to see if we can make it happen! Every pet is different, so I take the time to understand their routine, personality, and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, prefers a slower pace, or just enjoys companionship, I’ll make sure they receive attentive, personalized care. Safety is always my top priority. I’ll keep your pet secure, follow any feeding or medication instructions, and make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection while you’re away. I also believe communication is important. I’ll send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

I am available most days and am happy to do any length of walk or visit needed I have a fenced in large yard and 2 very friendly dogs so if I ever needed to bring your dog to my house it would be completely safe
About: I first discovered my passion for animal care in fifth grade when I brought home and later adopted my class pet, Spot, an anole lizard who remained with our family for two years. Since then, I have continued developing hands-on experience caring for animals, including working with reactive dogs. During the pandemic, my family adopted our dog Henry, and through that experience I gained valuable insight into supporting dogs with anxiety and learning effective, patient approaches to behavioral management. I currently have full availability for the summer and am flexible in accommodating a wide range of pet care needs, including daytime, evening, and weekend care. I prioritize clear and consistent communication with pet owners to ensure I fully understand each pet’s individual needs and routine. My goal is to provide attentive, reliable care and make sure every pet is safe, comfortable, and receiving the highest quality care possible.
About: I love long walks with my dogs daily. We walk in the woods or the rail trail. Off season I love to the dogs to the beach. I am currently available any time of day to walk dogs.

I have 2 friendly labs who love all dogs. My house is dog friendly. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and beds. I have 1 acre of land and an electric fence for my dogs.
About: Whether it’s long walks, playtime, feeding, or just snuggles on the couch, I treat every pet like part of my family. I’ve cared for puppies full of energy as well as older pets who need a little extra patience, so I’m comfortable handling animals of all ages. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel relaxed and confident while you’re away, knowing they’re safe, happy, and loved. I’m currently taking classes online this semester, which gives me a very flexible schedule, allowing me to dedicate ample time to care for pets, go on walks, play, and ensure they feel loved and comfortable throughout the day I have always been trusted by neighbors and friends to care for their pets, responsibly following all instructions, ensuring each animal’s needs are met and they feel safe, happy, and loved while under my care
“Bella visited with Sonny again this past week on Tuesday & Wednesday & he was very happy to see her! They are forming a lovely bond & we are very grateful for the loving care she provides to our little guy!”
“Alexandra is an excellent dog walker for our 20 lb dog. He tends to do a lot of jumping up, but Alexandra gets him on track very early on in the walks. Our dog is always very excited to see her drive up in her car. She is very reliable, and accommodates our changing circumstances.”
About: Hi. My name is Caitlyn and I recently moved to Newburyport. I’m originally from Salem, Mass. I’ve lived on the Northshore all of my life. I adore all the beautiful dogs and cats around here and would love to help if anyone needs a walker/sitter. I have loved animals my entire life and since I was a child, I’ve had a couple of different dogs over the years and was always the primary caregiver to them. Currently, i have just one, my mini dachshund, Ms. Vada. I recently lost my beautiful 18 year old cat Tinkerbell who I have had since she was 6 months old. I miss her so much. I’m reliable, super empathetic, responsible, punctual, honest, and treat pets like humans! I’m kind, helpful, and funny too. I’m able to follow directions and will care for your pet just as you tell me to do. I assure your expectations will be met. If asked to board in your home, I will treat your property as if my own with the utmost respect and care. I will be sure to keep your pets comfortable in their space and care for any other requests you may have. I’ve worked in peoples homes before and have always had nothing but happy, grateful employers who trusted me. I would love the opportunity to help care for your pet, providing you with the reassurance that I truly do care with the utmost love 💕 and kindness ! I have references and am able to answer any questions you may have. I look forward to meeting your fur baby or fur babies! I’m currently available full time right now. I can help mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I’m responsible, reliable, and compassionate. I am working from home right now, therefore my schedule is very flexible at the time. I live in a complex type community and have a perfect little route I walk my dog within the property, however, she generally pulls the leash towards the beach and sometimes we go off our path and I follow her lead. (She’s spoiled!) I love going to the dog park, to the beach, or random trails on the Northshore where she can have a bit more freedom and run “free.” My dog is friendly and generally gets along with all other dogs. She’s a little love bug.
About: I have had pet cats my whole life so I am very familiar with their care needs. I’m not as experienced in dog care but I know the basics and am always eager to learn more through experience! I currently work 4 days/week with a rotating schedule. I have full days off during the week as well as every other weekend off. On days i am working i am available for walks or drops ins after 6pm. My work schedule is not extremely consistent but I have that schedule 1 month in advance and update my calendar regularly to reflect my availability. As a pet owner I know how much trust is needed to allow someone to care for them. Whether it be pet sitting or letting them out for a potty break, I am dedicated to providing them the absolute best care and creating a safe and loving environment.
“I reached out to Hannah 24 hours before needing a dog walk and she stopped by to meet my dog Luna the day of. She was great with Luna and was timely and communicative on the day of the way. We will 100% use Hannah’s services again!”

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 Ipswich. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Ipswich after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 Ipswich. On Rover:
- 84% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 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 Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
