“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.”


About: My husband Lonnie, and I will be the care team for your dog, whether they are staying for a few hours or a few days. We are a pup-loving family looking into fostering or adopting a dog in the long-term. We've had pet hamsters, a hedgehog and bunny but our kids (10, 12 and 15) have wanted a dog for years. In our last neighborhood we signed up as puppysitters and hosted a few different dogs, started walking others, and generally tried to give our kids as much experience with them as possible to test the waters! Now that we live in a big house with a large fenced yard and quiet neighborhood, we would love to welcome your pup into our home for a day, a weekend or a longer stay full of love, hugs, play and walkies. We are still fairly new to the dog-sitting game but we are eager to hear from you and learn how to care for your dog the way you do at home. I work two days a week as a supply teacher, and my husband works remotely from home, so most days there will be 2 adults around to play with your pup! We have three kids between the ages of 10-15; two boys and a girl. They are all eager to spend time with your dog, and help us out with walks, potty breaks, playtime and quiet cuddles. We have a large, fenced yard and plenty of room in the house for your dog's crate and favourite nap mats. If your dog is used to being allowed on furniture or beds, we will allow it in our home too. There will always be somebody home to walk your dog in the mornings, during the day, after school or in the evening. On weekends we will clear our schedules so that we are all available as a family, and during the week there will be 1-2 parents home until school finishes, and then 3 kids home to play after that!

About: I grew up with a dog from the age 3-16! My best friend has a Boxer and I've been taking care and watching him frequently since he was a puppy! I also worked at an office where the owners had two dogs, a small chihuahua and a greater Swiss mountain dog. I took them out for frequent walks & fed them, as well as watched them when the owners weren't around. I'm currently a Stay-Home-Mother. My son is 3 years old, so the pet must be toddler friendly. I am home most weekdays. I can be busy on weekends, but if I have an early heads-up, I can accommodate. I am flexible during the week and have a car to drive to my client's houses! I am willing to stop by and feed, play and walk your pet.
“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’ve been surrounded by dogs since birth- literally. My first dog used to sleep in my crib with me! I’ve had 12 dogs so far throughout my life, and each one has taught me important lessons about love and responsibility. I couldn’t imagine my life without them. I’ve had dogs of all sizes, breeds, temperaments, and medical needs. I can safely administer medications, provide happy and fun play time, snuggle up on the couch with your pet, and tailor individualized needs based on your requests. I truly enjoy meeting and caring for dogs, and would love to meet yours :) I work full time as a night shift registered nurse and home care nurse in the greater boston area, and would like to make some extra money doing what I love; being around animals. My schedule is different every week, so my availability is very flexible! I am also home during the day when lots of people are away, and work when the world is asleep! I am adaptable to any environment, needs, or requirements for your pet. I am comfortable walking, crating, training, feeding, and administering meds to your pet! All I require is written or typed instructions to ensure it’s done properly and safely!
“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: My experience encompasses daily walks, meticulous feeding schedules, and recognizing subtle signs of distress. I prioritize creating a safe, loving, and stimulating environment, ensuring your pets feel secure and happy in your absence. My approach is tailored to each animal's unique needs, fostering a bond of trust and affection. I am going back to school to show my son it can still be done at my age. Your pets will fit into my schedule perrrfectly. I have a very loved 8 year old rescued cat that my son adores. Although I don't offer services at my home your pets will be loved and cared for like my own.

“I had Jaycee take my dog Oreo for a few walks while I was out of town and would highly recommend her for any pet sitting or walking. She stuck to the times she mentioned in the window provided and updated with cute pictures. She even left a few treats for Oreo to enjoy after the booking was over. I'll look to have her take care of any pet again if needed.”

About: Hi! I’m Leah, and I’ve been around animals my entire life, with 20 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and other animals. I have dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets. I grew up with parents who are veterinarians, which gave me a strong foundation in animal care, behavior, and recognizing when something may not be quite right. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different ages, personalities, and needs, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m currently taking real estate classes, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be available for pet care throughout the day. I’m able to work dog walking and pet sitting into my schedule easily, and I enjoy having a job that keeps me active while allowing me to continue working toward my career goals. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I always follow the owner’s instructions and keep their normal routine as consistent as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any special needs. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure their pets are comfortable, safe, and getting plenty of attention. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured while they’re away. With my 20 years of experience around animals and growing up with veterinarian parents, I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, ages, and needs.

Stephanie was an amazing walker, Jaxson enjoyed his time with her so much he kept wanting to follow her home after. Every time he came home from a walk, he would be out of breath and super talkative! Surely telling us how great of a walk he had. I’ll definitely be booking Stephanie again whenever I need a walker so Jaxson can reunite with his new amazing friend!

Emma was super sweet! Very communicative and reliable. Grateful to have found such a wonderful person that works remotely. This will help us tremendously for future needs caring for our Dodgy. I look forward to it! Thank you Emma for taking him for a walk today 🌸

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.

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 $17 and $39 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 10,366 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:
- 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
