About: Hi there! I'm Michaela, an experienced pet sitter and dog walker in the western CT area. I've had many dogs and cats throughout my life (and several birds, too), and I love getting outside for walks/hikes just as much as I enjoy relaxing at home with a good book. I've recently pet sit for 7+ days to help friends and clients travel to new places, see family, and enjoy life without worrying about their pets. I work from home Tuesday - Friday over the summer and have great flexibility during the day. I'm happy to work from your home or simply stop by to feed, play with, and/or walk your pets! I plan to come to your home and play with, walk, and clean up after your pet. I am happy to take them for a walk of any length! I'm happy to come by in the morning or evening to beat the heat, or at lunchtime to give your pet a potty break and some exercise.

“Emily is amazing with my dog, Luna. She is always flexible when it comes to scheduling walks and makes sure Luna has everything she needs. Emily is incredibly caring and loving toward her.

About: I have always had a dog, cat or parrot in my life. My experience is not only with my own pets but with family, friends and neighbors' beloved ones as well. I trained parrots in NYC for many years and have years of experience training dogs. I am available most weekdays and weekends as needed. My schedule is very flexible and can't imagine a better way to spend my time than taking care of your beloved pet. I love animals more than anything. So much so that I am a vegetarian out of respect for all living beings. I will walk, pet, play with any animal large or small and am very compassionate and intuitive to the needs of dogs, cats, and parrots.

About: Growing up, I had a Lab and then a Boxer and two cats. I've also helped my aunt at the doggie daycare she runs out of her home where she often has more than 10 dogs at a time. Everything from a Great Pyrenees to German Shepherds to Doodles to Yorkies. And it's always so much fun! The care I'll give your pets will really depend on them and their needs. There's a very large unfenced grass area behind my apartment building that would be perfect for walks or play. And there are multiple parks in the area too we could explore. At yours, I'd keep whatever their normal routine is. Whether that's taking walks, throwing the ball or just sitting and chilling and scratching butts. Their butts of course!

“Aiyana has been wonderful with our puppy. She’s professional, reliable and patient with a pup who has a lot of energy. We feel so fortunate to have found her and recommend her without reservation.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since we had a dog in elementary school. We adopted her from Arkansas and I love raising her for 17 years and taking her on walks to the dog park. My friends and family who had dogs always asked me to watch their animals when they were away or needed me to take their dog out for a walk. I am currently a stay at home mom with a lovely 3 month old baby girl. I can help your dog at any time during the day that works for you. I have a dog park at my community at Brookfield Village Apartments. We also have a walking path called Still River Greenway where people walk their dogs.
About: I’ve taken care of all different types of breeds across different ages for over 10 years. I’ve helped families with walking, feeding, playing and bathing dogs. I have a full time job working from 9am-5pm during the weekdays. I can help walking dogs in the weekends and after 5pm during the weekdays. I can easily crate dogs, take for long walks and spend quality time. Would prefer to take care for dog in their residence instead of mine.
About: I have been an animal lover my whole life! Sometimes I feel like they get me more than humans! I had a bunny and two cats growing up and also cared for my brother’s pig. I currently have a beautiful puggle named Lulu who I absolutely adore. I am a morning person and live an active life so long walks are my speciality. Also always down to play and snuggle. My lulu has some special needs of her own being paralyzed in her back legs, so I am capable of caring for pets in all conditions. I work part time and have a flexible daily routine so I tend to have free time available for time with the sweet fur babies. I have a spacious and clean home right across the street from a beautiful park so I am capable of providing a fun and safe space for your pet right at home.
About: I'm currently volunteering at Whiskers Cat Rescue cleaning cages and socializing cats. I am comfortable administering medications to cats. I have owned a small dog in the past. My current cats are a wobbly boy with Cerebellar Hypoplasia and a super senior (21yrs!) old lady cat. My schedule is really flexible right now. I'm not free a few times through the week and weekend but for no longer than a few hours. I'm very patient with animals, especially more skittish ones. You need to work with them even if it takes time to develop a relationship or trust.
About: I've had cats my entire life & I have a few years experience pet sitting for and walking dogs and would love for it to become a regular part of my life again. I enjoy spending time with animals sometimes more than people. I'm a college student and a caregiver currently so feel free to reach out with questions about availability. I have a constantly changing schedule and I may be available more than what's marked here. I take care of my own 2 cats daily, and I'd love to take care of more pets in between my work hours or on my days off. I've been in an environment with animals as long as I can remember feeding them, scooping litter boxes, and my favorites giving love, and playing.
“Our babies already love Haley after one visit. She was so great. She split the time between a walk and some yard play which is great for the energy our younger one has. Can't recommend enough!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in New Milford on Rover is $27.75 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Milford. 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 Milford.

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 Milford. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
