About: I have had animals in my life all my life. I am comfortable working with dogs, cats, and small animals. I have also worked with animals that have special needs, specifically related to senior care. I am capable of giving meds and shots to animals. I currently work part-time for myself so I'm able to schedule around your animal's needs. I am able to walk animals up to three times today. The most important thing for an animal is to feel safe while it's owners are away. I am here to follow any routines that your pet already has to maintain a sense of security and calm.
“Ivan is an excellent dog sitter. He obviously loves dogs and he was attentive, calm, and thoughtful in his care. This was my first time using a dog sitter for taking my dog for walks, and I couldn't have gotten luckier in choosing Ivan to take my dog to the park and care obout my pet. Ivan takes the responsibility seriously and understands my dog behavior rather than treating it as a checklist. My dog usually has the anxieties. Ivan found the way to calm my dog and communicate with wonderful care. After couple walks withIvan my dog is very excited, waiting for Ivan to come and go to the park. Ivan isd professional, reliable, and easy to communicate with throughout. I felt confident leaving my dog in his care and would not hesitate to book Ivan again. I am highly recommend Ivan service.”
“EC was great with Blaze! he helped so much with walking him & definitely tuckered him out. very professional, great communication & even gave some tips for walking blaze myself. 100% recommend & will use his services again. they were greatly appreciated this weekend.”
About: I grew up with dogs, cats and horses. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to check in with, feed and play with their pets. I work full time during the week. I am available for those who enjoy going out on Friday nights or on the weekends! I’m available after 2pm on Friday's and all day Saturday & Sunday. I am very active and enjoy going for long walks and runs. I have a fenced in yard and one friendly small dog that loves to play and run around. I have an indoor porch where my animals and yours can stay separate if need be. I am able to comfortably crate your dog if needed.
About: I’ve always loved animals and have had the opportunity to care for a few dogs and cats for friends, family, and neighbors. Whether it was feeding them, taking them on walks, playing with them, or just keeping them company while their owners were away, I’ve always enjoyed spending time with them. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, and I do my best to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I’m responsible, dependable, and understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I’ll care for your family member as if they were my own, and I’ll make sure to keep you updated with photos and messages so you have peace of mind while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and do my best to work around my clients’ needs. During the school year I work during the day, but I’m available for morning, evening, and weekend visits. In the summer, I have even more flexibility. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, or some extra company while you’re away, I’m happy to help and will always communicate if my availability changes. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow each owner’s instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any house rules. I know every pet has a different personality, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable and build trust at their own pace. I’ll treat both your home and your pet with care and respect, and I’ll send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing they’re in good hands.
“Georgina is wonderful! Our 1 year old pup absolutely adored her, and she provided great updates and photos after each walk while we were away. We hope to work with Georgina again soon!”
About: I just left my job after many many years. I worked in the addiction recovery sector. I have found myself still having so much in my heart to give I am retired and home so while I am babysitting your fur baby I will be sure to schedule things remotely. That way he or she will get the attention they need while you are away I take dogs on a walk regularly on a leash. Also, there is lots and lots of love to go around here for your fur baby while yo are away.
About: I’ve owned dogs, as well as cared for other dogs, for nearly my whole 32 years of life! Dogs are such special creatures and deserve the best care, even when their owners are busy. I also have experience with overnight/extended care periods and walking multiple dogs at once. I’m currently working part-time as I adjust to my new neighborhood. I can be flexible with walking schedules, be available for one time help or create a schedule! Whatever you give as care instructions for your pet will be followed to a T! If I take your dogs to a social area or anywhere outside the home, I will make sure they are on a leash (unless fenced in) and keep them safe!
“Jillian was excellent with our Golden Retriever, Tuckerman. He warmed up to her immediately and responded to her commands. She took time to ask appropriate questions. The weather wasn't ideal but she didn't let the rain stop her from completing the walk. We will definitely reach out to her for future walks.”
About: I’ve always had a natural connection with animals, especially dogs. I’m patient, calm, and great at reading their behavior. Over time, I’ve helped train dogs with basic commands, leash manners, and socialization using positive reinforcement. I make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. What makes me stand out is how much attention and care I put into each pet. I treat every dog like my own and make sure they get the right balance of playtime, exercise, and rest. I also keep owners updated with pictures and messages so they always know their pet is happy and cared for. Your dog will be in loving, reliable hands with me.🐾 As a full-time college student, I have a structured but flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care. On Mondays and Wednesdays, I’m available from 8–11 AM and again from 3:30–11 PM, and on Fridays I’m available from 3:30–11 PM. I’m also able to stay overnight on weekends if needed. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, I’m very organized with my time and make it a priority to be fully present with the pets I’m caring for. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just companionship, I always make sure each pet gets my full attention and care. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, not just something I fit into my schedule. When I’m caring for pets in my home or my client’s home, my main focus is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I always stick to their normal routine as closely as possible, whether that means feeding times, walks, or bedtime habits, so they feel secure while their owners are away. I give plenty of playtime, attention, and cuddles, but I also make sure they have quiet time if they need space. If I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect as my own and always make sure everything stays neat and clean. I send regular updates and photos so owners can relax knowing their pets are being well taken care of. My goal is for every pet to feel happy and cared for, just like they would if their family were home.
About: Hello, I’m Sarah! When anyone asks me what my passions are I always say animals. I absolutely love all animals and believe they are an integral part of our families. Our fur babies should have the highest level of care when we can’t be beside them, which is why I can’t wait to take care of your best friend! I have raised two dogs, a Lhasa Apso and a Cavapoo. I’d be delighted to be a part of your pet’s care! I work remotely, so I can stop by over lunchtime or after 5pm! I am flexible and can certainly work with you to meet your schedule as best I can! Highest ethical standards are in place. I believe every pet deserves the best care, so you can be assured I will give your pet the highest level love and care. I will always respect your property and follow any directions left for me.
“We originally asked Caroline if she could walk and feed our two dogs as we were planning to a long day trip. However, we woke up to find our oldest dog not doing very well. It turned out that he had cancer and that we would have to put him down. It was a long agonizing day trying of running tests and considering options before finally deciding that the most humane treatment would be to euthanize. Through all this, we are thankful to Caroline who took care of our remaining fur children--a dog and a cat. It was a great relief to not have to think or worry about them so we could focus on our oldest dog in his time of need.”
About: I am Cori checked, have experience working with trainers, I love to go for long walks with dogs and enjoy staying at the dog park and enjoying the sunny days! I work teaching hours and will be free when your kids are on vacation, We can go for walks and enjoy the fresh air in the backyard. It depends on the needs if they need meds but in general must feed, play, and go for walks! Have them sit next to me and cuddle!

Juliana is the best! So friendly and professional. She gave us thorough updates for each walk. These kept me reassured my pets were doing well while I was away. She was prompt for each visit, and went above and beyond with making sure our pets were well taken care of. Would absolutely use her again if we need a sitter again in the future, so I would recommend her for anyone’s pet care needs! Thank you again!

Sara is an absolutely amazing dog walker. She’s incredibly kind, patient, and genuinely caring with our dogs, and it shows every time she’s with them. They adore her, and we always feel completely at ease knowing they’re in such good hands. She’s reliable, attentive, and treats our dogs like they’re her own. We couldn’t ask for a better dog walker and would recommend Sara without hesitation to anyone looking for someone truly special to care for their pets.

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 .

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:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
