About: I have cared for pets most of my life. After high school, I would pet sit for teachers who went on vacation—and through word of mouth, became a regular on call sitter for 3 different homes with multiple pets. I have cared for, mostly, senior dogs but am so happy to give puppies the attention and energy they need. I especially love going on long walks. I am currently in nursing school and, because it’s an online hybrid program, I have lots of free time during the day and evenings. I have clinicals during the weekend but will be sure to block those days off when I get my schedule. I do not offer boarding for pets in my own home, since I live in an apartment, but am happy to do whatever you need to care for your little (or big) family members! All I need is instruction and I’ll take care of it.

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with dogs and currently have two of my own, so caring for them is second nature to me. They truly become part of the family — honestly, my dogs are like my children. Because of this, I understand how important it is to know your dog is safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I make sure every dog feels comfortable and cared for. I’m also a Reiki practitioner and sometimes offer gentle animal Reiki, which can help create a calm and relaxed environment for animals. My experience with energy work has helped me become very patient, attentive, and in tune with what animals need. Your dog will be treated like one of my own — with lots of love, attention, and care. I am available Friday evening through Monday evening most weekend. I believe this would be a great opportunity to care for animals while helping their owners have an easier time in life when responsibilities arise. I have a very clean, comfortable, trusted home. I watch a dear friend of mines dog once in a while, and while I have 2 dogs of my own, they truly enjoy the company of other dogs that can become their new friends! I will treat your baby as part of my family and show them the most love I can.

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I’m truly passionate about. I have lifelong experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with special needs, including administering medications and following detailed care instructions. I understand that every dog is unique, so I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and personality to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing fetch, or just relaxing with plenty of attention, I’m happy to provide the care they need. I treat every dog as if they were my own, and my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your best friend is in loving, reliable hands. I currently work part time so I have plenty of time to spend with your furbaby! I am available throughout the week and weekends. Drop off and pickup will be anytime between 9:30am and 12:30pm or after 4:30 pm I have a fenced in yard for your pup to play in as much as he/she wants to. I also have outdoor kennels available for the pups to stay in during the day(weather permitting) or indoor crates when I am away for work(up to 4 hours). Tie outs can also be used if your pup is an escape artist. Boarding pets will be kept separate from my own pets unless otherwise agreed upon.

About: I am very flexible with hours. I am an active person and happy to play with your pet and walk them as much as needed. I grew up in the cold, so weather doesn't bother me walking or driving. I also am willing to work with your hours and do what is best for your pet. I also am always happy to send pictures and check in so you know they are living your best life. I can be flexible but I am a morning person so early walks are okay with me. I can also drop in easily through the day with little issue. I grew up with large dogs (lover (100lbs) and 2 cats, and am the current owner of a Bernese Mountain dog who I love. I love all animals but tend to lean to bigger dogs. I like cats butdon't currently own one due to my husband. I am newer to rover but have spent a lot of time caring for my own pets but also dog sitting for others in their homes over the last 7 years.

Rhianna was fantastic. Libbie looked forward to her afternoon walks while we were in town. She was prompt, provided great communication, and took some of the best animated pics of Libbie! I plan to connect with her again next time I am back in town.

About: I've had cats and dogs my entire life. I treat them like my babies, so yours will be considered family as well. I have watched cats and dogs throughout the years for family, friends, and neighbors. I treat your fur babies as if they were mine. I currently work from home, so I have a pretty flexible schedule that allows for me to take care of the animals when needed. I love spending time with animals, so I'm happy to share my time with them. I would treat your pet as if it were my own. I would follow all guidelines you would leave for me. I would be sure to play with them and give them lots of attention.

About: hi!! i’m paige & i treat every pet like they’re my own 🤍 i’ve cared for dogs of all sizes & personalities and i honestly love getting to know each one. whether they’re super high energy, a rescue, or more of a chill senior, i make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. i know how hard it can be leaving your pet, so i always send regular updates + pics so you don’t have to worry or wonder how they’re doing. people always tell me how relaxed their pets are with me and how much peace of mind they have, which means everything to me. i’m also really respectful of your home & always try to leave things just as clean (or better) than i found them. i tend to go a little above and beyond because that’s just how i am. my goal is simple: happy pets & stress-free owners :) this is my full time job so i’m pretty flexible and update my availability on here daily! i do still have my van just so you know but hopefully not for long! i do whatever is necessary by your standards to make sure they have the most accurate experience just as if mom and dad were home with them!

About: Hi! I’m Cass. I have been a life long animal lover. I was often the child bringing home every stray cat and dog I found. When I became a Mom and my youngest son begged us to get a dog, I was so happy. We added Rocky to our family 12 years ago and he’s been my companion ever since. We also have two cats Domino and Luna to complete our family zoo! We’d love to have new furry friends and visitors to come on our family adventures and to play with. I work from home so I am available all day for pet care needs to be able to frequently feed and bathroom breaks along with some outdoor time I have a somewhat private back yard and I will be outside with your pet at all times while they get outdoor time and use the bathroom or I am able to go to your home and walk them in their environment. I also have a nice neighborhood block area that I am able to take breaks and walk your pet.

Let’s chat about what your pet needs to feel happy and cared for. Currently, I work from home and my availability is flexible if I have a day or so notice.

She was awesome with my little guy. At first he was being a stinker and hid under the bed and barked, I told her she could go and not worry about it. Then I get a picture message of him walking outside fine. Definitely took the time and had the patience to work with Orion to build that trust. Definitely, definitely highly recommend. She is amazing!

About: I have taken five different dog classes and have volunteered in the past to assist at local animal shelters. I would bathe, brush, walk, and play with a variety of dogs. Patient and flexible and always do what is best for the animal. My oldest dog is a certified Therapy dog and we visit mostly nursing homes to help brighten someone’s day. I have had a dog most of my life which I was responsible for walking, feeding, and caring for. I love animals and I will follow any rules provided from the owner. I am a school teacher and very trustworthy. I treat my dog like children and may overact sometimes and rush to the vet when it’s not necessary, but just want to keep my baby girls healthy and safe.

FAQs for Dog Walking - New Bedford

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 320 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across New Bedford. 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 New Bedford. 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 New Bedford.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 New Bedford. On Rover:

  • 100% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
