About: Hi! I’m Brittany, a lifelong dog lover and proud mom to a sweet, friendly 8-year-old black Lab who loves dogs of all sizes (her bestie is a Yorkie!). I offer walks, drop-in visits, and weekend stays if our pups are a good match. Your dog will be treated like family! Happy to do meet-and-greets or answer any questions. I fit in pet sitting on the weekends! I work a Monday through Friday job from 830a-5p. At times I can do drop in visits in the evening during the week. Ideally, Im here so you can have that worry free weekend getaway!! I can watch your pet at your house, or at mine. I have a black lab and a cat that both do well with other pets! I can provide a runner for bathroom breaks as well!
About: About Me 🐾❤️ As a lifelong pet owner, I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your beloved pets. You can count on me to be dependable, attentive, and caring every step of the way. I’ll treat your fur babies like my own, following their routines, respecting your instructions, and giving them plenty of love, patience, and personalized care while you’re away. I grew up surrounded by all kinds of animals, including farm animals, dogs, cats, and parrots. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy! Today, my home is filled with my two dogs—a 7-year-old Plott Hound and a 4-year-old Golden Retriever—as well as my African Grey parrot. We recently lost our sweet orange kitty, Jack, and he will always hold a special place in our hearts. ❤️🐱 I absolutely love being outdoors, so if your pup enjoys adventures, I’d be happy to take them for a walk or hike and give them fun, enriching time outside. I’m also comfortable caring for pets in snow, rain, or heat, so the weather won’t stop me from providing reliable care! ☀️🌧️❄️ Most importantly, I’ll take the time to get to know your pets, understand their personalities and routines, and keep you updated so you can feel confident and worry-free while you’re away. Your pets’ safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities, and I would be honored to care for them. 🐶🐱🐴🦜💕 My Availability 🐾 To start, while I build my clientele, I’m available early mornings, after 4 PM on weekdays, weekends, and holidays! ❤️ I’m excited to meet some amazing new pets and their families and hopefully become someone you can count on whenever you need a little extra help caring for your fur babies. 🐶🐱🐾 Your pets’ safety and comfort are my top priorities. I want every pet to feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their own environment, whether they’re staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours. In my home, I have two dogs and an African Grey parrot, so I understand how important it is to keep a safe, calm, and clean environment for all animals. I would always take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, likes, dislikes, and any special instructions before caring for them. When caring for pets in your home, I will treat your home with the same respect I would expect in my own. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep your pets’ routines as consistent as possible, and provide plenty of attention, companionship, and exercise. Most importantly, I want you to feel confident and comfortable knowing your pets are being cared for by someone who genuinely loves animals. 🐶🐱🐴🦜💕
“Michelle has walked our pup Annie a number of times this summer, whenever I am traveling for work. Annie is super timid at first and Michelle was very patient and accommodating with her - literally walking her around the yard until she was ready to venture further.”

About: If you’re looking for someone who’s a reliable, caring, and loving pet sitter, then I’m your girl! I’ve been a dog walker and pet sitter for 7 years. On top of that, I have five years of experience working at a dog daycare, so plenty of hands on experience with multiple dogs. I do not specialize in training but I’m open to doing a meet and greet and seeing if it’s the right fit. I have flexibility Thursday evenings between 6pm-11pm to Sunday afternoons between 8am- 1pm so I can do drop ins or dog walking visits between those times if needed. When I’m pet sitting at my client’s house I will normally take their dogs for walks 3 times a day and I will feed them breakfast, lunch if needed, and dinner and make sure they have plenty of water.
“Autumn was great. She took great care of Ivy and I definitely recommend her as a walker/sitter. She made sure Ivy went to the bathroom and had plenty of water and cooled down after her short walk in the summer heat!”
About: I’ve taken care of a family dog Chihuahua for the past 8 years. I enjoy taking her on walks and giving her all the attention she deserves! I currently am on a job rotation in Maine. I am unable to take the step to caring for a dog full time, but I’d love to fill the void with weekly care! I care for a dog like I’d care for a family member. It’s important for me to create a comfortable environment for the dog to hang around in
About: I've taken care of all ages of cats and dogs, and handled things like medication or appointments. I've pet sat for multiple friends, coworkers and family members throughout the years and many of them have come back multiple times for me to do it again. I own my own business so I make my own hours and can be flexible on when I'm needed. I'm available weekdays but not weekends. I will make sure to follow any and all instructions you leave, and love to play and cuddle with animals. I also have time to bring dogs on longer walks if needed.
About: I’ve had animals of all kinds in my family since I was born! I have been dogsitting, cat sitting, and babysitting since I was 14. My sister works at a Doggy Daycare center where I have helped her with night shifts. Additionally to that, through her rover app, I have done overnight pet stays I’m currently a junior at the University of New Hampshire! Tuesdays, and Thursdays-Sundays are my most flexible days! But I’m sure things could be worked out for Mondays, and Wednesdays too. I can easily follow whatever rules your fur baby is most adjusted too! Whatever the case may be, I will make sure they stay on their schedule 😊
“My very sweet rescue pup has reactivity challenges that make finding dog walkers a little stressful. But Rebekah handled my dog’s energy with great care and confidence. She sent photos and even brought her own special treats :)”
About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life. I am happy to leave covered in hair & smelling like whatever they smell like! I am comfortable with puppies-senior. I am free almost all evenings & early mornings. Weekends are mostly open, too! Mondays are usually always free starting in August. Currently I’m pretty flexible, too! I follow directions & am comfortable reaching out if I have questions. I lean on the safe side & want the absolute best for your pet.
About: I have taken care of pets my entire life. Growing up I had 6 fish, 2 bunnies, 2 Guinea Pigs, and a dog. I would often pet sit for many of my neighbors. Working at a wildlife shelter gave me experience caring for and handling wild animals. Working at a veterinary clinic I learned how to work in a team with animals, and how to make sure that pets get the care they need, even under pressure. I am available three days every week. I will allow notice of care how ever many days in advance you need, and a day of cancellation policy. Unfortunately I live in a dorm, and cannot house pets in my apartment. How ever, I have a reliable car and can drive anywhere needed, as well as transport dogs any where needed.
About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life. A few of our dogs even had puppies. One litter started to be born on my bed. When I was in my early 20's I used to pet sit for my co-workers for extra cash. I currently have 4 dogs and 1 cat of my own. I will take care and love your pets as if they were my own because that is how I would like my pets to be taken care of when I am away. I currently work days but I will be delighted to stop in to check on and or walk your pets in the afternoons and evenings. Whatever your request is I am sure I can handle it. If you need cat boxes to be scooped. Or dog poop to be cleaned up while you are away, I will do it no problem. I have no problem giving your pet cuddles while you are away!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Northwood is $26 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $31 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 October 2026, there are 1,572 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Northwood. 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 Northwood. 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 Northwood 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 Northwood. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
