“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.”

“Ally was amazing. Duchess can be a little shy around new people but she warmed up to Ally quickly which put me at ease having to leave my pup for so long. Ally was easy to work with, flexible with my schedule, and was always punctual and communicative. She walked, fed, watered, and medicated my dog for a week and I never worried about Duchess being taken care of. 10/10 would recommend.”

About: My aunt got a golden puppy a few months after I was born and we would get pushed in the stroller together. So, I guess you could say I didn’t have a choice- I was born into a life of furry companions! My whole life I have adored animals and was even fortunate enough to have my own dog by my side for over 18 years. I’ve taken care of pets of all ages and abilities for as long as I can remember, and consider it a privilege to be able to say that. Pets add so much value, joy, and love to my life so I can’t wait to meet yours! 🦮🐈‍⬛🦜🐎🦎 My job is hybrid which means I work partially remote. As a result of this, I see this set-up as an opportunity to spend more time with animals! As the story goes, I asked my dad if we could adopt a dog every single day for years. Thankfully, the pestering worked and he caved! From the get go I have wanted animals in my life and since then have never once wanted that to change. Our pets are beloved and deserve to be treated with the utmost love and care; and I can guarantee you they’ll receive nothing less while under my care!😌😌

About: Caring for animals has been a lifelong passion of mine! Growing up, I was the neighborhood’s go to pet sitter, doing everything from feeding, walking, and bathing dogs to making sure local cats were well cared for and loved. Over the past five years, I’ve expanded my hands-on experience by fostering rescue dogs through a local shelter. I’ve cared for pets across every stage of life from 10 week old puppies requiring extra patience and routine, to gentle seniors and cats who love a calm, comfortable space. Why Choose Me: • Experienced with Dogs & Cats: Comfortable with energy levels, playtime, feeding schedules, and unique personalities for both dogs and cats. • Shelter & Foster Background: Attentive to animal body language, respecting boundaries, and managing distinct temperaments. • Dependable & Detail-Oriented: I strictly stick to your pet’s routine, house rules, and care preferences so they feel secure and happy while you’re away. Whether your fur baby needs an energetic walk, structured feeding, or cuddles during a drop-in visit, I treat every pet in my care like my own! I work part-time at night just a few days a week, which leaves my daytime hours completely open! Whether your pup needs midday walks and playtime, or your cat needs dedicated drop-in visits, feeding, and extra attention, I have near open weekday and weekend daytime availability to give your pets all the care and cuddles they need. While I don’t currently have pets of my own in my home, my condominium is extremely pet-friendly with plenty of open, grassy space for walks, exercise, and playtime! If you’d like your dog to socialize, there are many friendly neighborhood pups to meet and if they prefer solo space, that’s completely fine, too. Most importantly, I am extremely respectful of your specific rules, timelines, and care routines, and I 100% guarantee your instructions will always be followed to the letter!

About: Hi! I’m so happy you’re here! 🐾 • I’ve always had a deep love for animals, and caring for dogs is something that genuinely brings me joy. Whether your pup is playful and high-energy or more relaxed and cuddly, I take the time to understand their personality and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. 🫂 • I offer in-home boarding, which means your dog will be staying in a calm, clean, and loving environment — not a kennel. I keep my bookings limited so I can give each dog the attention they deserve, including walks, playtime, and plenty of affection throughout the day. 🫶🏾🤍 • I have experience with a variety of breeds, including high-energy dogs, and I’m happy to adjust to your dog’s routine to keep things as consistent as possible. Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priority. 😊 • You can expect regular updates, photos, and open communication so you always feel connected and at ease while you’re away. 🙏🏾 • If your dog has any special needs, routines, or preferences, just let me know — I’m more than happy to accommodate! • I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! 🐶💛 I am a business owner - so my schedule is on my terms! I have a very flexible schedule, so definitely reach out with any dates you have in mind, and I’m sure we can work it out! I do my best to follow the animals lead, while also keeping in mind of producing what is best for their overall safety! :) We love to have fun over here!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Marlborough

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Marlborough is $28 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $34 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 2,220 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 Marlborough. 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 Marlborough 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 Marlborough. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
