“Ana has been a super reliable and responsive walker for our dog! She's always there on time and gives great updates for us. I'd definitely recommend her as a walker!”
“Mason was absolutely wonderful! He walked our dog with such care and reliability — showed up right on time, sent updates along the way, and brought our pup back happy and tired. Even though it was just a one-time walk, you could tell he genuinely loves dogs. Would book again without hesitation and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy walker!”
About: I am the go-to sitter for all of my family members and friends. I am flexible, reliable, and great with a variety of animals. I grew up with cats and dogs, and have carried that love with me to adulthood. My favorite memories with my dogs are the long walks we would take every day. I am a teacher on summer break, so I currently have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I can pop in to check on animals at any time of day, and would love to have some dogs join me for long walks throughout the summer. I will care for your pets in whatever ways you need. I have worked with a variety of families who all have different expectations and routines, and I will always be respectful of that.
“Sabina was amazing with my Rosy while I went home for the holidays. She was very professional and communicative, and she went above and beyond in making sure Rosy's needs were met. Even when unexpected issues arose, she handled them promptly, kept me posted on every step, and gave me options on how to handle the situation. I never once doubted that Rosy was in great hands.”
About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely care for pets like they’re my own. I’ve grown up around family pets and have experience helping care for them, along with dog walking and daily routines. I’m patient, reliable, and make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s a playful walk or quiet time at home, I keep things calm, familiar, and homey so they feel at ease the whole time. I work from home Monday through Friday, which allows me to provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. I also go on daily runs, and I’m happy to include pets that enjoy being active and going for walks. I have open availability and a spacious two-bedroom home where pets can comfortably roam and feel at ease during overnight stays. I care for pets by keeping them safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. In my home, I provide a clean, spacious space with cozy beds, toys, and plenty of attention so they feel at home. In a client’s home, I follow their usual schedule, including feeding, walks, and any special instructions, while making sure they get care, exercise, and companionship. My goal is always to keep pets relaxed, happy, and well cared for.
“Kate was amazing! Came to meet my dog a week before our scheduled appointment, highly communicative and spent extra time with my sweet baby boy. Thank you Kate!”
“Rebecca was excellent. She communicated well, was friendly and enthusiastic, and handled a new situation with ease. She took the time to do an extra meet and greet to connect with my dog and me and understand all of our needs. She was composed with my eager pup who can be a handful when excited to meet new people. She handled a situation gracefully with my poor communication. Rebecca is clearly a dog lover who will channel that energy into her work. I would highly recommend Rebecca for your pet care needs.”
“Couldn’t have been happier with John - would give him 10 stars if I could. John was SO Cummings gift before, during, and after the walk for my pup Brutus. He took video and pics of the walk, shared updates, dried his paws off from the rain. It was seamless and made me feel so much better about leaving my pup home. Thank you John!!”
“This is my first time using a dog-walking service. I was extremely nervous. However, Areana ensured that I would be comfortable. Ms.Areana remained in constant communication, very professional, and seemed extremely nice. She completed all of my requests with no hesitation nor issues. Even after just one experience I would recommend her services. Looking forward to using her again in the near future. Note: I love how Areana sends photographs of the experience as well as a documentation of what occurred on the walk.”
About: Animals are my absolute passion! I grew up around dogs my whole life and currently own three dogs and two cats. I am incredibly comfortable managing different pet personalities and am also uniquely experienced with special needs and sick animals, as I currently care for my own cat who has cancer. I know how important routine, patience, and extra love are for pets who aren't feeling their best. I’ve also helped organize donation drives for pet rescues in the past. I promise to treat your furry friends with the highest level of care and family-like love! I have a highly flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of quality time to your pets. Because I manage a strict, twice-daily medication routine for my own cat on a precise schedule every single day, I am incredibly time-conscious and organized. I will easily adapt to your pet's specific routine, meal times, and exercise needs to ensure their day stays perfectly on track. Safety is my absolute top priority. I am incredibly flexible and open to whatever specific routines or rules you have for your pet—I will gladly follow your exact instructions to make sure your fur baby stays comfortable and happy! Having three dogs and two cats of my own, I know how to manage a multi-pet household safely and monitor animal behavior closely. Because of my experience caring for a sick pet, I am extremely observant, reliable, and dedicated to keeping your pet completely safe and loved.
About: I’ve been around animals basically my entire life. I just moved here from Key West, where I was the Marketing and Events Coordinator for the Florida Keys SPCA. During that time I got deeply involved in fostering and rehabilitating animals to get them adoption-ready, so there isn’t much I haven’t seen. Cats are my biggest area of expertise, but I’m just as good with dogs. I currently live with four cats of my own: two seniors, one who’s terrified of everything, and one with a neurological condition called cerebellar hypoplasia. So if your pet has quirks, medical needs, or a personality, we’ll get along. In my free time, I’m exploring my new city, playing video games, and drawing. I will 100% draw your pet. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so pet care fits in easily. For overnight stays, I’d set up my work area at your place and hang out with your pets throughout the day. I’d just need to head back to my house once a day to check on my own animals. I’m a homebody by nature, so I’m around most of the time. I occasionally have weekend plans, but your pet will always be my top priority and I plan around them, not the other way around. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, my goal is to keep things as close to their normal routine as possible. I follow feeding schedules, medication times, and any specific instructions exactly as the owner lays them out. I’m attentive to body language and behavior, so if something seems off with appetite, energy, bathroom habits- etc, I’ll notice it early and communicate right away. For safety, I always double-check doors, gates, and windows, keep harnesses and leashes secure on walks, and stay aware of any household hazards (cords, plants, foods, open balconies). I’ll send regular photo and video updates so you always know how things are going.
About: I’ve been around cats since I was a kid, and now I’m a cat mom to Bibble and Strawberry as well as a current PAWS foster parent for kittens like Ketchup and Hoisin. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, so I always care for other people’s cats the way I’d want someone to care for mine. I’m comfortable with shy, playful, curious, or sensitive cats, and I follow routines closely while keeping things clean and calm. I refresh food, water, and litter before I leave, and I send clear photo updates so you always know how your cat is doing. Can’t wait to meet your furballs. I work part-time and have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to do drop-ins throughout the week and on weekends. I can also house sit overnight depending on my schedule. I always move at a cat’s pace. New people can be stressful for them, so I keep things calm, give them space to warm up, and let them choose how much interaction they want. I follow your routine closely feeding, water, litter, medications, and any house rules so everything feels familiar while you’re away. At home, I care for my own cats with more than just basics, making sure they have enrichment, comfort, and attention, and I bring that same level of care to your pets. I stay observant, double-check doors and safety details, and make sure your cat feels safe, respected, and comfortable every visit.
About: I have worked with all kinds of animals throughout my life, learning to train cats and dogs on my own. I’m also familiar with exotic pets such as pythons and bearded dragons. I can comfortably administer different kinds of medications to most animals, including oral liquids and pills, sub-Q and IM injections, and topicals. Currently I am available as a full-time pet sitter for house-stays and drop-ins. I often sit for multiple houses at once, doing house-stays for one client and drop-ins for 1-3 others depending on the services and times needed per client. When I meet an animal for the first time, my priority is gaining their trust. I spend time casually observing so I can take note of their personality and physical forms of communication, but I don’t get too close or move too quickly until I’ve given the animal a chance to take me in as well. Once trust is established, we can move on to wearing leashes and harness, medication routines, playing, etc.
“Kelly was so great with my fur babies! My dog gets a bit nervous around new people sometimes, and Kelly was able to get her to warm up with some treats. I’ll definitely be using her services again!”
“Amanda has been an amazing Care Giver for my dog Diesel. I have booked her two times now and each time she’s has been excellent. She has great communication that is timely and informative. She quickly connected with Diesel who is very protective of our home, and made him feel loved. I will definitely continue to hire Amanda for my needs with Diesel!”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets all my life, as I’ve come from an animal loving family! I’ve additionally pet sit for friends and family and am comfortable with adapting to different energies as well as administering special diets and medications. I’m a fairly active person who loves getting out of the house and moving, and my neighborhood is very walkable- full of one way streets and wide sidewalks! My boarding rate is higher than my other rates because I only ever board one pet at a time. Your pet will be getting individual, dedicated care in a safe environment! I work remotely, so am home most of the day. I am available for regular care of your pet and the flexibility of my schedule allows me to take breaks as needed! My home is pet and smoke and pet free, and the back patio has six foot high cement walls. I have a pet gate on my staircase for when I leave the house, so no fear if your furry friend likes to scrounge in clothing or laundry! Additionally, the entrance to my house has a secondary door which is always closed, so there’s no chance of accidental pet breakouts while entering or leaving the house.
“Paulina is the first dog walker that my anxious doggie would leave the house with without my encouragement! We weren’t sure that this could happen and we are very grateful. Thank you so much for your patience and persistence Paulina!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ludlow
Megan was reliable, communicative, and took great care of my puppy during the walk. She provided timely updates and made the whole experience easy and reassuring. I would definitely recommend Megan to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog walker, and I'd be happy to book with her again.
Gregory accepted a last minute booking to walk our dog and ended up walking her twice, feeding her dinner and giving her medicine. She was a happy dog when we came home and his pictures and communication were great. Can’t wait to have him walk our dog more regularly!
I cannot recommend Ana enough! Not only was i able to book her and do a meet and greet in a pinch but she is so attentive and made sure my dogs felt completely comfortable with her right away. I really appreciate how communicative she is—she let me know if they had any bathroom issues or behavior quirks. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing they are in such great hands!"
Kathrine was great with our pup! This was actually our third time asking her to take care of our dog and cat, and once again she was wonderful. We were on an international trip and had absolutely no worries knowing our pets were in such good hands. Kathrine made sure our pup was well walked, cared for, and happy, and communication was always great. Very reliable, friendly, and trustworthy. we will definitely ask her 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 your Ludlow. 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 Ludlow.

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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Ludlow. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
