About: I have been caring for dogs and cats for over 32 years, I have worked as a kennel assistant at 17 for Lake Houston Animal Clinic and was a Kennel Manager for 4 years for Best Friends Pet Resort in Spring, Tx. I have experience and knowledge with different breeds as well as specific character traits of most breeds. I fostered with Montgomery County Animal Shelter for roughly 4 years and I'm used to administering both oral and injected medication and am familiar with many different health issues. I have been pet sitting off and on since 2005 as, I have a good client base but I'm looking to expand my business. I love dogs and cats....we speak each other's language! Its a joy to be able to care for other's furbabies while I'm out running errands, in between work schedules or even just enjoying the day. Being with the animals is a joy and not a just a job. I pet sit from the client's home so that thier furbaby can remain in the comfort of their own home while mom and/or dad are away.
About: People always ask me to dog sit their fur babies because they know how much I love animals! I’ve had pets since I was a little girl. I currently have an 8 month old Shih Tzu and a Maine Coon cat. Both are great with other animals. I am available any time, day or night. I am a real estate agent, so I set my own hours, which is very convenient. I mostly work from home, unless I’m out showing houses or attending closings. I am married and have two little girls that are ages 7 and 11 years old. My daughters are also animal lovers, and love helping me take care of other people’s pets. We have a large front yard and a long driveway, so there is plenty of room to run, and we are not too close to the main road. Their are lots of trees and neighbors are pretty spread out.
About: I am different from other sitter because I will take my time and actually play with your dog. Also get to know the dog and see what they like and don’t like. I will go beyond to take care of your dog. I am free the rest of the summer. The only thing I do have is softball I play one game in the morning till July 13 but that’s it. I have a fenced in backyard with to friendly english bulldogs. They love dogs and are very nice. Also I will go pretty much anywhere to a clients home and make sure the dog is okay.
About: Your dog’s comfort and joy come first. I bring years of experience and a genuine love for pups to make every visit fun, safe, and worry free! As a stay at home mom, I love spending my days caring for pets, going on walks, and visiting the horse barn. Pets easily fit into my daily routine, and I make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I keep pets safe, happy, and comfortable, whether it’s in my home or yours. I follow routines, rules, provide food, water, supervision, and lots of play time. In your home I respect your space while giving updates to build trust.
About: Hi there! I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember and have experience with a variety of breeds and ages. I offer dog walking services in addition to pet sitting, so your pup can get the exercise they need. Currently, I have a high-energy Australian Shepherd, which has given me plenty of experience in keeping dogs entertained and happy. I have had 8 puppies in my care at a time as well if you need puppy care. I’m dedicated to providing loving and attentive care for your favorite family member. My schedule is very flexible so I am able to help at most times! I am in B2B sales and work remote. I can also run your dog if needed! I will ensure that your home is safe and left exactly the way it was upon my arrival. I understand how much trust goes into letting someone into your home.
About: Hello, I have much experience owning/taking care of different types of animals such as house hold pets just as well as farm animals: horses, cows, pigs and chickens etc. I love and enjoy caring for all different breeds and sizes of animals. I’m super flexible with my schedule so I will be available most days and times for Rover just give me a heads up a day or so before hand. I always make sure to give the best care and treatment to our fur babies. Keeping them on their normal routine while keeping them healthy and happy is my main priority.

About: I live by the campsite rule — leave things better than you found them. Your home will be exactly as you left it, and your pet will have had a great day. The only evidence will be the pet hair I’ll inevitably wear home on my clothes. No outfit is complete without it. FOR PETS WHO NEED A LITTLE EXTRA PATIENCE Some animals need more than a cheerful hello or a baby voice — they need someone who understands that trust takes time. I’m experienced with anxious, reactive, and shy pets and know how to move slowly, read body language, and let them set the pace. There’s no rushing it, and I wouldn’t want to. For particularly nervous pets, I’m happy to do multiple meet and greets before we start services. SENIOR PETS AND SPECIAL NEEDS I’m comfortable giving medications and following detailed care instructions, especially for senior pets who need extra consistency. Routine is everything to an older animal, and I make sure their day stays as normal as possible while you’re away. Don’t worry about accidents either — as dogs get older, it just happens, and they’ve earned patience and dignity. A HOUSE FULL OF ANIMALS I live with two cats and two dogs, and know firsthand what a multi-pet household actually looks like. I get the order of operations — who needs to eat when, who needs space from whom, which routines work and which ones create chaos. I’m genuinely interested in how your animals already fit together, because that rhythm is what keeps everyone calm. I’ll follow what’s working, not reinvent the wheel. YOUR HOME IS IN GOOD HANDS TOO As a homeowner myself, I notice the details that matter — not just for your pet, but for your home. Water on a hardwood floor gets wiped up immediately. An open window gets closed (especially in a house with cats). I’ll make sure exterior lights are on at night so the house looks lived in, and if the trash can needs to come in from the curb, I’ll grab it. I treat your space the way I’d want someone to treat mine — because I know how costly it can be when little things get missed. And yes, I will absolutely make sure we’re not heating the whole neighborhood. YOU’LL ALWAYS KNOW HOW THINGS ARE GOING I send regular photo and message updates (maybe too many — I might overdo it) so you can see how your pet is doing while you’re away. Each visit is more than a checklist — my goal is for your pet to feel calm, cared for, and happy, and for you to feel completely at ease leaving them in my care. I’m always happy to set up a meet and greet so we can all get comfortable before booking. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to accommodate early morning, evening, and weekend visits. I’m often available for short-notice requests and can adjust visit times to match your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. Because I plan my days around pet care, I’m able to be consistent and dependable with timing and communication. I care for pets in their own home so they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. During each visit I follow your instructions closely and keep routines consistent, including feeding, fresh water, walks or playtime, litter box or yard care, and making sure doors and gates are secure. I spend time with your pet beyond basic care — whether that means exercise and enrichment for energetic dogs or calm companionship for pets that just want company. I also keep an eye on behavior, appetite, and overall well-being and will let you know if anything seems out of the ordinary. I respect your home as well as your pet. I make sure food and litter areas stay tidy, clean up any accidents, and send updates with photos so you know your pet is safe and cared for while you’re away.
About: My family used to foster for Small Breed Rescue of East Tennessee. I have taken care of neighbors' dogs, disabled dogs, and elderly dogs. I work at an animal shelter when I am home from college. I have taken care of many animals with behavioral issues. I have fostered and nursed dogs and cats back to health. Private message me and we can go over a schedule! I do work a job and have college classes through the week so my availability is limited! My job also requires me to be gone for at least 6 hours at a time! I would go to my client's house and do whatever services they request. For example, taking their dogs on walks, cleaning litter boxes, picking/cleaning up poo, giving their pets affection, and administering medications.
About: All my life, I have been around dogs. I currently have a sweet boy, Winston, who is a Pit Mix. I’ve had several different dogs over the years and have assisted family and friends with pet care. I also have previous work experience with a pet boarding and grooming facility in Baton Rouge. From having experience in a professional setting and having experience caring for pets at home, I find the at home care to be much more comfortable for the pet- which is why I decided to register here! I love making the pets and their owners feel as comfortable as possible. A personal touch- I like to take funny/cute pictures of what we do and send them to you once I’ve completed the service! I currently have two dogs that I watch for my mother. When I am in town, this looks like walks every afternoon and evening, frequent play time, and feedings. I love to make sure they are happy- whether that’s running around outside, long play time, some chill TLC, or even a few extra treats ;)

“Patricia is wonderful. She is flexible with scheduling, fast work her responses and gives good updates on my pup. She's is great with large dogs and wasn't deterred by my greyhound’s squirrel drive.”

“JaNiya was amazing with my dog, Goose! I can always tell if he’s been well taken care of by how calm he is when I return from work. She even gave some love to my cat, too!”

About: I’ve had animals my whole life. Dogs, cats, snakes, lizards or anything that would come home with me. I currently have 3 dogs, one is a partially blind and completely deaf Aussie mix. And then I have a Catahoula mix and a shihtzu mix as well as a cat. I’ve trained them over the years I’ve had them while working a full time job and living alone. I’m extremely patient when comes to the higher energy dogs that usually frustrate people, and I’m used to working around special needs. Animals have always been my biggest passion, regardless of if they have fur or scales! I owned 2 horses over the last 10 years, and volunteered at the barn I had one of my horses boarded at, so I had to feed and tend to 15 horses on my days to feed. Regardless of what kind of pet you have furry or scaly, they will be taken care of as if you were still home doing it yourself! I’m not working right now, but I am a new mom. I’m able to do drop ins and walks after 6pm for anyone who is uncomfortable or who’s furry friends don’t like kids! My little is only 2 months old, so he stays in a baby wrap on me for drop ins and walks before 6pm and I either wear him or put him in the stroller for walks. But that depends on the dog and their comfortability. After 6pm dad is home and can watch little so I can be baby free! Dogs are still a very important part of my life. All pets in my care will be cared for exactly how the paw-rents see fit! Being an equestrian I’m used to caring for multiple animals and them all having different needs and demands! I will play with your pet so they get plenty of mental and physical stimulation while you’re away to make it easier on them! Reactive dogs are welcome as long as we can be safely introduced and proper tools to keep everyone safe are available! My deaf dog is reactive, so I understand how hard it can be to trust them with another person.
About: I've been caring for cats, dogs, fish, and rodents since I could walk. I have had special needs animals, and have a background in Biology and Vet Assistant studies. Each bond is special, and I will treat your furry friends with the upmost care and attention. I am currently in between jobs, so my availability is highly flexible. I am open to over-night pet sitting, as well as multi-day drop ins to ensure pet needs are met. I am able to pet sit in the client's home where duties may include taking the pet for a walk, playing outside or inside for stimulation, providing meals and/or medications, providing companionship if that entails sitting with the pet for an extended amount of time.
About: Always had pets my entire life, and genuinely enjoy working with animals. Current Animal Rescue Volunteer. I am someone who is trustworthy, reliable, and caring. Currently unemployed looking for a stress free side job where I can earn a little money on the side. Currently available any day of the week. I would prefer for the pet owner to leave instructions to help guide me through some of the tasks required in order to take care of their pets as needed.
About: I have been animal sitting since I was 16 years old. I am a cat lover through and through, but I also love dog walking and playing with dogs! I am good at providing medicine for animals, and I really thrive with senior animals. I am a part time worker, so in the week day I am more free to be with your pets! I am pretty flexible as well, and I can work around your schedule. When I am in my clients home, I am very respectful of your space and only go where is necessary. I am comfortable spending the night as well as only jumping in for a little bit. I love taking dogs on trails to go for a run, and providing whatever they need!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - New England
Mary took such great care of our blind dog Jake. He doesn’t always take to people he doesn’t know since he can’t see them. He loves Mary! She was on time and did everything we asked. We will continue to ask her to watch Jake every time we need help! We highly recommend Mary to everyone, except when we need her! 😊

FAQs for Dog Walking - New England
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 715 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across New England. 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 England. 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 England.
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 England. On Rover:
- 95% 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.
