“Mary was incredibly kind and patient with my senior dog. She took the time to earn my dog's trust, thoughtfully bringing treats to the meet and greet. Her dedication and gentle approach made all the difference. I highly recommend Mary—she’s fantastic!”
“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.”
“Cole is so good with our Mason! He is trustworthy and makes sure Mason is cared for and gets all his energy out. I never have to worry at work when I know Cole is coming to walk Mason. He sends so many pictures of Mason smiling and I’m happy knowing Mason is in good hands! Cole has become our permanent dog walker and I don’t know what we would do without him!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and have experienced every stage of all of their lives. Definitely not new to a majority of things!! I’m currently home after graduating college this past spring and I’m looking to make some extra money and with Rover I can have fun doing it! I understand the love and care that people have for their pets and want to be able to provide that for yours. I know different animals have different needs and I’m here to care for them!
“Caroline is truly amazing! And so good with big dogs. Tripp is always SO EXCITED to see her. I had a family emergency arise and she stepped in with care and attentive communication, allowing me to tend to my family without worrying for my dog. I highly recommend Caroline for your dog needs”
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!
“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!”
“Craig is very prompt, courteous and professional. My dogs got good walks. Kailo is still a baby, and he can be a bit much, but Craig seemed to have no issues with him. Both Kailo and Raya came back tired and seemed happy, Would definitely book Craig again.”

About: I’ve been in pet care since I was freshly 18. I’ve always had such a love for animals & have worked at any place possible from volunteer work, dog daycare, and boarding! I am currently a veterinary technician and am working towards veterinarian! I currently am available full time anytime for drop ins and walks! I unfortunately don’t have the space to watch dogs overnight at my home but we can always discuss further & work on plans! I do have an extremely dog friendly dog who can join on walks if your dog allows. She can come with me for playdates to tired your pup out as long as you have a fenced in yard where they can play together on top of the walk if you choose to do that.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 2,525 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Middle Haddam. 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 Middle Haddam. 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 Middle Haddam 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 Middle Haddam. 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.
