“Tyler is wonderful. My pup is usually shy around males due to her past but she absolutely adores him. As soon as she sees his car in the driveway she gets so excited. He's great with her.”

About: I’ve taken care of numerous types of dogs and cats since 2019. I can provide oral medications and injections to animals, as well as care for elderly dogs and dogs with special needs. I am currently a graduate student at Bryant University pursuing actuarial science. I love taking care of animals when I am not at work or my classes. I work hard to ensure that the animals are well taken care of and given plenty of pets. I also ensure that the houses I stay at are as clean as possible.
“Lindsay is great. She is totally understand Bear and very patience with him. She spent time to get to know him before the walk.. Bear had a great time with her.”

About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life and currently help care for a high-energy Border Collie/Sheltie mix and three cats. I have experience caring for senior and special-needs pets, including administering transdermal and liquid medications and helping manage ongoing medical care for a cat with hyperthyroidism. I also helped care for a dog with hypothyroidism, pancreatitis, and liver disease, giving me experience following specialized care routines and monitoring pets with chronic health conditions. I’m comfortable reading cat and dog body language, handling multi-pet households, and caring for cats who are skilled escape artists. I understand that every pet has its own personality, routine, and needs, and I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine. I work part-time Tuesday through Thursday from 3–6 PM and Saturdays from 8 AM–3 PM. Outside of those hours, I have flexible availability for drop-in visits and house sitting and can provide feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and medication administration as needed. When caring for pets in their home, I follow their routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I pay close attention to cat and dog body language, take extra care with pets who may try to escape, and make sure doors, gates, and other safety measures are always secure. I’m also comfortable caring for senior and special-needs pets and administering medications according to owner instructions.
About: I have been taking care of and had pets my whole life, and taken on more responsibility as soon as I have been able. I am patient and dedicated, and easily adapt to what you and your pet want and need. I have pet sat for many neighbors and family friends and friends of friends, and both the people and the pets absolutely adore me. Especially the pets. I have taken care of senior pets, special needs pets, adult pets, and kittens and puppies/baby animals. I have also worked with people a lot too, through childcare, babysitting, senior care, and customer service! I do especially love to watch pets though! I am going to be working a part time job, but I will always make time to try and make care work! I am communication first, and a problem solver, so I will always communicate to make things try to work!!!! I am a very dedicated and flexible person. I am safety and other primary needs first, but I am dedicated to make sure every pet and person feels comfortable and safe with me. I am calm but can be assertive, but I make it a point to follow what works best for others.
About: I have had pets all my life. Dogs, cats, guinea pigs, turtles and fish. I know first hand how scary it can feel to leave your loved ones in the hands of a stranger. You do not have to worry with me- I will take care of them as if they are my own and send you lots of pictures. I will respect your pets unique quirks and you can be assured that you won’t come home to a pet who gained a couple pounds. Anything your pet needs- I am here. I’ve taken several classes in pet training (cats and dogs) and done online courses on pet behavior studies. I’m an auditor so I can do hybrid work. If you give me enough notice, I’ll work from home the entire week so I can give your pet the attention it needs! I have a one bedroom apartment so I can separate animals into three rooms: my room, the kitchen, and the living room. The entire apartment is pet- proofed so no cords or wires are showing anywhere.
“Autumn has been great. She always leaves such fun photos, comments, and videos. My dog truly seems to enjoy her company and gets some quality time out while I am away. Thank you for all the care, Autumn.”
“Diana was great with my pup! He sometimes likes to be lazy, but she was able to coax him into a some exercise. She did a great job of keeping me updated of their activity and she sent some great pics! I would definitely recommend!”

About: Hello! My name is Elena, and I would love the opportunity to care for your pups. I have over six years of experience caring for dogs and have been pet sitting since I was 13. I’m comfortable with everything from walks and playtime to basic training and, of course, plenty of snuggles. I take pride in providing reliable, attentive, and loving care so you can feel confident that your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s comfort and routine are always my top priority, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I am not employed during the summer, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for your pets. I am available for dog boarding, pet sitting, and walks any day of the week and at flexible times. I’m happy to work with your schedule and provide dependable care whenever you need it I do not have a fenced-in yard, but I spend a lot of time outdoors with my dog, Mabel, exploring different walking and play areas around town. From dog parks to open fields and baseball fields, we are always staying active and getting plenty of exercise on and off leash. I also have all the essentials needed to keep your dog comfortable and happy, including toys, treats, fresh water, and bathing supplies. Your pup will always have plenty of attention, activity, and care while staying with me!
“Michelle is an absolute gem of a dog walker! From the moment she met my Guster, I knew we were in good hands. Her genuine love for animals is clear in everything she does — from the way she greets Gussy with enthusiasm each visit, to the thoughtful updates and photos she sends after every walk. Michelle is dependable, professional, and truly treats Guster like her own. My dog lights up when she sees Michelle, and I have total peace of mind knowing hes being cared for with such kindness and attention. Rain or shine, Michelle always shows up with a smile and ensures my biy gets plenty of exercise, playtime, and love. Finding someone you can trust to care for your animal as you do is no small thing, and I’m incredibly grateful to have found Michelle. If you’re looking for someone who’s reliable, caring, and simply amazing with dogs — look no further. Michelle is the best!”

“Nina was so great, we rebooked her for the whole week! She was able to handle my big and small boy on a great schedule and made all of us feel very comfortable so I highly recommend!”

About: Hi I am Nora- a reliable student who loves spending time with animals of all sizes and personalities! I grew up in town with a Golden Retriever and a Bengal cat, but since their passings I have been occasionally watching other’s dogs! Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to take care of their furry loved ones (mostly large dogs) while going away for a weekend or a longer vacation. I am young, ambitious, and thoughtful, but new to this platform! I am currently working part time as a cashier while also studying. My flexible summer schedule M-F can accommodate your needs, while also making time for myself and my education. I am available for drop ins, walks, or house sitting and can accept last minute bookings if convenient. Only available until September! I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I always prioritize safety and communication with each client and I expect the same from you. I will be sure to keep you updated and send pics/vids to let you know your pet is being taken care of! Looking forward to establishing a connection with you and your pet, while also making them feel comfortable. Open to short or weekly commitments during the summer based off your needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Marlborough on Rover is $27.75 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 2,363 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Marlborough. 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 Marlborough. 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 Marlborough.

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 Marlborough. On Rover:
- 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
