About: We are experienced cat foster parents and currently have two of our own. We also grew up with a dog each and other critters like birds and hermit crabs. We treat all pets like family members and want to give you peace of mind when you are away from them. We are consistent with our care and want to follow your schedules and commands as much as possible. We have experience with shy cats and the most high energy dogs. We've given medications to cats young and old and can follow complex care instructions when needed. Recent weeklong flexibility through Nov. We are also early risers who can give pet care before the workday. Our home base is Maynard. We look forward to meeting new furry friends in the local area. We will care for your home like it is our own. We keep litter areas free of flung litter and wash food and water bowls as needed. When needed, we could care for a cat in our sunny spare bedroom. Since cat intros take a long time we wouldn't want to rush your cat meeting our resident cats. However, they could have a safe reliable space for when you are away on a longer trip.
“Marc was kind and communicative! I appreciate the time and photos he took while walking Maple. I appreciate the patience he had for maple to warm up with him during their meet and greet.”
About: I have had pets all of my life and adore animals :) I know firsthand how nerve wracking it can be to leave your pet with a stranger. Therefore, my mission is to provide reliable care that leaves you (and your pet) feeling at ease! I have experience taking care of my own dog and neighbor’s dogs. I will tend to your pets needs efficiently and with care! I work on a hybrid schedule, so please check my calendar for my specific availability. When I am working remotely, I am located in the Sudbury area. I keep pets in environments that they feel comfortable in: their routine is priority. Whether they like being let out in the yard, or taken on leash for walks, that’s what we will do!
“Liv was great about scheduling a meet and greet to come ahead of time and learn all about Luna. She then sent photos from their dog walk & it looked like Luna had a great time. I would happily hire live again in the future.!”
About: I got my first dog when I was 10. She was a puppy when I got her and was the love of my life. She taught me responsibility, patience, love, gentleness, and kindness. In my adulthood I fostered a sweet dog for two years before I had my children. Now I’m a single mom who is looking to help care for your dog during the times my children are not with me. I’m a single mom on a parenting schedule. I would care for your pet on the weekends my children are with their dad. During that time I would be readily available and have a lot of flexibility. I can easily come to your home and care for your pet as requested. I live in a single family home with a walking trail across the street. No fenced yard.
“Pilar has been so helpful. She is always very responsive and available. She has been wonderful with Baxter. There was a time when she was walking him and he heard shooting range and panicked. Instead of bringing him right back inside without a walk she sat with him and calmed him down and then was able to get him to walk again. He is clearly comfortable with her and enjoys his time with her!”
“Alexandra was great! She took care of our dog and cat while we were on vacation in Ireland. We reserved Alexandra to come every morning to feed our pets and walk our dog (neighbors helped in the afternoons/evenings). Both pets loved her, and we felt comfortable being so far away. Alex kept us posted on how our pets were doing, and spent some extra time with them giving them the love they were missing while we were away.”
“Rachel has been walking my dog Laverne weekly throughout the winter and now into spring. Laverne is delighted to have her very own walker and enjoys this special human time. Rachel has been lovely to work with.”
“Katy was great, super helpful! She arranged a meet and greet and is very friendly. Katy walked my Golden Retriever for 3 days and was very reliable and sent updates and photos. Highly recommend , I will ask her for help again in the future.”
About: I have cared for not only my pets but also friends, neighbors, and co workers for many years. I have a BS in Veterinary Science and work as a Forensic Scientist for the state full time. I am not only caring for your pet but am respectful of your personal space and time. I am experienced in administering medication via oral, ocular, SQ, and IM. I would love to get to know your pet! I have a flexible schedule and can drop in up to the early afternoon (3pm). I work locally and have a reliable car that I can get to clients with. I will treat your home and space with the utmost respect. I will ensure your dog is secure as well as your house before completing my appointment.
About: Adopting Benny, our now 6-year-old Australian Shepherd mix, has been one of the most meaningful and rewarding experiences of our lives. He came to us as a rescue, full of potential but also in need of patience, consistency, and care. Australian Shepherds are known for their intelligence, energy, and sensitivity—and Benny is no exception. From daily walks and mental stimulation to routine training and lots of affection, caring for him has been a constant, joyful commitment. He thrives on structure and attention, and it’s been incredibly rewarding to watch him grow more confident and connected as the years go by. Benny has taught us so much about resilience, communication, and the powerful bond that forms between a pet and their family. He’s not just a pet—he’s truly part of our family. Pet care is a daily routine for me. I'm the one who feeds, brushes, spends time with Benny and walks him on a daily basis. I provide nothing but the best for Benny. He gets toppers on his food, supplements, daily attention and walks. I'am trustworthy, reliable and will treat your animals as if they were my own.
“We were scrambling to book a sitter for our pups when we had to make last minute travel plans for work. Jayliana was quick to respond and confirmed her availability. Our pups immediately warmed up to her and we were very impressed with her ability to get our antisocial cat to play and cuddle with her. Jayliana was very attentive to our pups needs and communicated frequently with updates for peace of mind. She even sent us pictures and videos which made us feel like we were back home with our fur babies! I would highly recommend her to anyone that needs a sitter and I will definitely look to book with her again. Jayliana is very kind, detail oriented, and has a genuine love for animals. We are lucky to have found her and are happy that our pets have a new friend in her!”
“Chris was so awesome with our pups! He was prompt, friendly, and genuinely seemed to enjoy walking our dogs. I booked last minute for a walk at 4AM!! and he responded in impeccable time to make it work for us. Will be booking again when I need another impromptu walk.”
About: My name is Ming. I am a college student at Suffolk University. I live in a apartment building. I have a cute yorkie at my home. He is 1 year old and he is always energetic. He loves to play with other cute dogs. I am a experience dog walker. I usually walk my dog twice a day and we usually go to dog parks in the weekends. And I have experience with dog and cat sitting. I will definitely take very good care of your dogs as my own dog! I can also come to your place to play with your dog or cat. My schedule is very flexible and I have plenty of time during weekends. Looking forward to meet you and your dog!
About: Hello -- We're Renee & Renee. We have one very well behaved canine and while his disposition (and food motivation) has a lot to do with it - we like to think of ourselves as a good trainer. I have lots of love for doggies of all breeds, sizes, etc. We work together to care for your animals: drop ins, feeding, walking, dog-sitting, day care - you name it! One of us is always home with the animals while we watch them. Let me know your pet's quirks and foibles - and we can see if we might be good fit for you! I have a very flexible WFH business so I have lots of time to dedicate to doggy play dates, feedings, walking, and more. If we agree to it - we can do it. We live in a large home in Worcester, MA. I am able to take your dogs on walks in your neighborhood or in a nearby park. If you need me to feed your animals or play with them - I'll want details instructions on how to find the appropriate materials! If I am boarding your animal with me -- we'll want to download on your individual pet's needs, preferences, likes/dislikes.

Marc has been a wonderful addition to our routine with Odin. At 12 and with some loss of full control of his back legs, Marc lets Odin dictate walk duration and pace, but always spends quality time with him regardless. We look forward to his thoughtful updates and entertaining photos.
Sarah was great about stepping in to help with Martha, our elderly terrier. Sarah was reliable and conscientious, and we loved seeing the pictures of Martha looking relaxed, comfortable, and “herself” on her walks with Sarah. Sarah listened to our descriptions of Martha and respected those times when Martha just wanted to hang out in the backyard vs going out on a walk.
Renee was friendly, bright and cheerful. She presents as a responsible individual, listened to all instructions given for dog walking and followed through on everything. She greeted my dog with enthusiasm at the "meet and greet" clearly indicating her love for animals. I wouldn't hesitate to fully recommend her to meet your fur babies needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

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 September 2026, there are 11,083 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Maynard. 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 Maynard. 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 Maynard.

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 Maynard. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
