“Jamie clearly takes his responsibilities seriously and takes the utmost care of our dog. As first time dog owners, we were nervous to leave our pup in someone else’s care, and how our pup would react to someone else being in the home. Those nerves quickly vanished, and we as well as our puppy enjoy having Jamie come over to walk him and care for him. He is very professional and very caring toward our dog, which is all we could ask for!”
“Felipe has been a complete godsend in our lives with our 2 yr old pitty, nena! He is always super responsive, trustworthy and always is so sweet with our pup. We know he treats her with love and as his own when she’s under his care on walks. He consistently leaves us detailed reviews of the walk and tells us how sweet shes been with him, He’s very caring and feel, We’re all lucky to have him. Would absolutely without hesitation refer him to anyone looking for walks or other services that he offers. You and your pup are in great hands 🖤”
“When our dog sitter had an emergency, Alexa saved the day! She is amazing with our 2 senior beagles, is reliable, and so sweet. I felt so comfortable leaving my dogs in such reliable hands, on short notice. It was an easy decision to have her care for my dogs again and again.”
“Lisa was great with my dog, Milo! She truly cared for Milo and was very diligent in following any of my requests. I would definitely recommend Lisa for any pet care needs. She’s dependable, thoughtful, and my dog really enjoyed his time with her 😊”
About: Veterinary technician working in a vet clinic, 4 years in the field. Lifelong animal lover and caregiver. Looking for part time gigs that include more fluffy friends! I’m currently working 3 days a week at the vet clinic (shifts change week to week). Looking to fill up my other days with pet care to keep me active and surrounded by fluffy creatures. I update my availability calendar as my clinic schedule comes out. Feel free to reach out even if my schedule doesn't seem to align fully, usually I can make things work! I live in a two family house (family owned). We have a fenced in backyard for your pup to run around and go potty if they’d like to. I have one cat, who grew up with a dog and has always gotten along with them. If necessary to keep your dog more comfortable, they can be kept separated depending on the length of the stay.
About: Dogs have always been a part of my family growing up and my friends have always been able to rely on me to care for their pets. I have two of my own that I make sure always have the best care possible. I currently am fully remote and I am able to adjust my schedule as necessary. Whether it's potty breaks, walks, or even hikes, I always try to make room for as much enrichment as possible. I have a yard that is completely fenced in and is able to contain two husky mixes who would be more than happy to keep your fur baby company. I am also able to set up various gates so they can have as much private time as they need as well.
“Lauren has been so thoughtful and kind with our pup Keira! Keira had recently been bit when Lauren started with her, which meant she had some reactive behavior around other dogs. Lauren kept us updated every walk on how she did, and was open to using some of the training methods we used with Keira to help on walks. I would highly recommend Lauren for walks with your dog!”

“We unexpected fell in and love and adopted a dog, but we were scrambling for a dog-walker. Andrea came in and set our mind at ease on the days we have to go in. We know our pup is in great hands.”
About: Reliable and caring dog walker who is passionate about providing safe, fun, and enjoyable walks for every dog. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual needs, making sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and love while in my care. Your pet’s happiness and safety are always my top priorities! I work full time as an operating room nurse. I am available on the weekends and have most mondays off. Also available for evening walks. I care for every pet as if they are my own. In a client's home I would follow protocols set by owner and accomodate to whatever dog's needs are.
About: I grew up with two silky terriers and have done a lot of overnight dog-watching for friends and family. I've walked leash-reactive dogs before as well, so I'm keen on making sure dogs with special needs are met! I've otherwise been with dogs most of my life and would love to be your best friend’s newest pal. I work from home 2 days per week, so while I’m busy most of the day, I can take periodic breaks to take your dog out for walks or pee breaks. My house is dog-proof with a small enclosed patio instead of a back yard. After walks we usually just play a bit and I do low key activities like TV to keep an easy eye on the dog.
About: As someone who has cared for the elderly and people with disabilities, I have found that my gentle demeanor also works with animals as well. Currently, I have no pets of my own (hopefully I will get one by next year), but I am a happy dog aunty to a toy poodle named Ruby who I dog sit frequently. I realized from a young age that animals usually gravitate towards me, and my priority is to always make sure these animals feel safe with me as well. As a dog walker/dog sitter I want animals parents to feel rest assured that their furry babies are in for a safe, fun time. My apartment area is spacious as well, and my neighborhood complex has all the safe space for your pets to roam wild. I also have a pet jungle gym here as well for them to use their excess energy. I work from home as a Data analyst so my hours are very flexible. This give me extra time to keep an eye on all the needs of the dogs I take care of. I also have pee pads as well as a small doggy bed in case you’re furry baby is feeling sleepy. Outside, my complex is quite big, allowing your pet ample space to roam wild. We also have a dog playpen/ jungle gym as well that I’m sure they will love.

About: Hello dear pet owners! I'm a dedicated service provider at Rover, and I'm passionate about caring for animals. As a biologist, my love for the natural world extends to our furry companions. Growing up, my family and I cherished our Papillon and Yorkie, providing me with valuable experience in small dog care.

My typical day starts early, around 6 am, which allows me to accommodate their morning routine and playtime. I own a spacious (1200 sq ft), well-lit apartment all to myself. You can take a look at it in my profile photos. Although it is very bright, there are a lot of dark hiding places e.g. under the bed, closets, sofas, etc. There's also a big office room, so there's plenty of space.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Malden
Logan is awesome! You’d be making a mistake by not going with him. He has been extremely accommodating, listens to all my instructions, and gives me regular updates! My puppy can be a little stubborn and he even goes the extra mile to help out with that. Can’t recommend him enough!
We are so thankful with William! I contacted him last minute and without a doubt he jumped in and took Luna. (I found out later he did an extra effort as he was working all day long and still needed to take more dogs out!) It’s clear how knowledgeable and experienced he is with dogs, he got Luna’s personality in a sec! We’ll def book him very soon!
Maren was so kind and patient with our little guy! He’s a tiny senior dog who can be a bit stubborn at times (though very cute), and Maren understood and was so excited to hang out with him. I had such peace of mind for the week I was away. Maren is a dog person to the core!
When our dog sitter had an emergency, Alexa saved the day! She is amazing with our 2 senior beagles, is reliable, and so sweet. I felt so comfortable leaving my dogs in such reliable hands, on short notice. It was an easy decision to have her care for my dogs again and again.
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.

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 Malden. 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.

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.
