“Rachael did a great job with my dog Harry today! He came home happy & tired so that's a good thing. He ate his dinner quite heartily too, ha, ha! I'm looking forward to having her come back again hopefully on a regular basis for walks & see if we can get some weight off Harry as he is overweight for his size right at this stage in life. Thanks so much Rachael!”

About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs of all kinds — for friends, family, and in my own home. From daily walks and exercise to feeding, bathing, and meeting any special needs, I treat every dog as if they were my own, making sure they feel loved, safe, and happy every step of the way!! I’m currently working part-time at a new job, which gives me plenty of free time to dedicate to caring for and helping others with their animals. I’m passionate about providing reliable, loving care, whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your pets company, so they feel happy and comfortable even when you’re away I currently have two dogs at home, including a new addition who loves making friends and meeting other pups. Your dog would be more than welcome to join us on our walks, turning exercise time into fun, social time
About: I got my first puppy at 13—a German Shepherd/Pitbull mix. I trained him in a variety of tricks and commands, and even helped him overcome his fear of cats, which he now loves! Since then, I’ve cared for dogs and cats for friends, family, and neighbors. I truly love spending time with animals, and I’m especially passionate about training them and making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I am currently available every week day after 4 pm as I am working part time and going to school. As for the weekends, I am available anytime! I make sure to not only take care of an animal’s basic needs—like food, water, and exercise—but also ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and secure with me. I always go at their pace and never force interaction, allowing them to come around on their own terms. For dogs, this means providing food, water, exercise (walks and playtime), and of course, plenty of love. For cats, I focus on making sure they feel comfortable, have their food and water, lots of affection, and engaging playtime!

About: I have owned and cared for pots of all types and kinds since I was a child, particularly cats and dogs. As an adult, I have owned three dogs and four cats and deeply enjoy the experience of being a pet parent myself. I have cared for, walked, fed, and watched overnight for many length of days many cats and dogs for my friends, family and professionally. I understand the nuances of what is required for individual pet care and how to follow directions carefully. I'm in excellent communicator and want to ensure that my pet parents that I work for are kept in the loop and feel comfortable with my service! I take special care to ensure that each individual pet is cared for in the way that they need and particularly to ensure that no animal is ever let out without being on the leash or let out at all if they are a cat. I genuinely enjoy playing with cats and dogs and making sure that they get the adequate exercise and stimulation that they need. I look forward to caring for your pet soon! Ps, I am very strong and have experience with walking large dogs, as powerlifting is a hobby of mine in my spare time! Since I work from home part-time, I have lots of flexibility and fluidity to care for someone's pet or meet a need at the last minute. I live in Central Connecticut which is very close to every County and I'm comfortable taking a drive if needed. I have an extremely flexible schedule between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. I would only be providing services in other people's homes to let them out or feed them daily or any kind of walking or playing services. In my own home, I currently have two cats who enjoy free reign of the home. We do also have a fenced in yard fully, but at this time I would not be offering that service in my own home.

I have always loved spending time with dogs and any other kind of animal. I also am very active and would love to go on a run or hike with your dog.

Your pet will never be left unattended outside and will receive the proper care at all times. Water is provided all day along with snacks and meals. I love to house sit and the pets are more comfortable in their environment. After Covid I find that the pets have higher than normal anxiety in other person’s homes which makes it uncomfortable and unfair to the household and the pet itself.
“Thea was the best!! She came right on time and gave Maggie a nice long walk. She seemed so happy in the pictures and our girl even gave her the infamous sad puppy face when she was leaving. That’s how we know she loves Thea!!”

About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was 8 years old and got my very first dog. I love all types of dogs, I can even handle aggressive dogs with ease! I always love to spend my free time with animals. Any availability I have is used to to go towards my pets and hopefully yours! I never let animals I don't know very well be off leash outside without my supervision, it is dangerous to me to be careless like that. I never take it too fast and id love to scedule a meet and greet.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Middlebury
Rachael was incredible! Super flexible, always on time, and knew how to care for our dogs. It’s hard to find someone willing to care for our big babies but she rose up to the challenge. She is always super detailed in how the walks go and keeps us informed about anything that we should know about. We highly recommend Rachael, super polite and responds super quick! Our dogs absolutely loved her, we will definitely be booking again when we need a dog walker. Thank you Rachael!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Middlebury is $20 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $25 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 2,793 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Middlebury. 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 Middlebury. 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 Middlebury 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 Middlebury. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% 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 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.
