“Shelly was fantastic with our dog and we felt so comfortable leaving him in her hands for his daily walks. The notes and pictures she sent each time were great and we will definitely continue booking dog walks with her in the future! Could not have had a better experience!”
About: I've been around dogs & cats my entire life, and I can't imagine life without them! I've always had dogs of my own, and I spent five years providing pet care through Rover in Massachusetts, including dog walking, daycare, overnight stays, and in-home care. I have also had bunnies, ferrets, and other small pets. I'm comfortable caring for dogs of **all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities** — from energetic puppies and big dogs to senior pups who need a little extra patience, attention, and TLC. I'm also happy to care for your feline family members! As the proud mom of an English Bulldog who requires daily medication, I understand firsthand the importance of following specific care routines. I'm experienced in administering oral medications and have given injections as well. I'm comfortable caring for senior pets and animals with special needs. Whether your pet needs a leisurely walk, some playtime, or companionship, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're not home. I know pets aren't just pets — they're family. And I promise to treat yours with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. ❤️🐶🐱 You can expect a dependable, experienced caregiver who genuinely loves animals, respects your instructions, and will happily send updates and photos so you know your furry family member is in good hands! This is my main gig currently so I am able to be flexible schedule wise. I am available 7 days a week a variety of hours. I don't offer overnight care as I do have my own doggie to care for. However, I am able to do several pop overs if you are away for an extended amount of time. I will treat your pet with the same love and care as my own. My dogs/pets are always treated as a member of my family. If you are away for an extended day, I am able to stop by several times to care for your pet(s). If you need other small things done while I'm there I am happy to help (mail in, lights on/off, etc.).

I have a secure fenced in yard and 2 very friendly dogs to keep your fur babies company. I can also crate your dog if they feel more secure in a crate ❤️
“Thanks for spending the time with Jenny walking her and letting her interact with the kids. That socialization is so important and also wears her out. She does love a car ride!”
“Sean is simply excellent. His communication with us is outstanding and prompt, and if something in our booking needs to change, he’s incredibly proactive. We also love and appreciate the care and attention that he gives to our puppy on their afternoon walks. We’re incredibly lucky to have Sean!”
“Terry was fabulous for her walk with Atlas! She arrived promptly at the scheduled walk time, and provided a detailed write-up with lots of photos to capture her visit, which included not just the neighborhood walk, but also play time in the backyard, pets, and practice of Atlas's "commands"! We are looking forward to having Terry come stay with Atlas during an upcoming trip, as it's abundantly clear that she takes great pride in the pet care she provides!”
About: Animals have always been a part of my life, growing up with household dogs and cats. I've had experience with elderly dogs as well as puppies/kittens. Currently my husband and I have a 5 year old cat named Pepper and a 6 month old black lab, Kobe. Our yard is a decent size, plenty of room for dogs to run and play, and our home has space for new animal friends. Having a pup myself, I understand the feeling of leaving your animal and wanting them to have the best care possible. My goal is to make sure your animal is well taken care of and give you peace of mind. I'm currently working part-time, with a very flexible schedule. This leaves me lots of time to be able to take care of your animals! Week days are very available for walks and check ins, boarding can be available on the weekends. To make sure your dogs are safe and have no chance of running away from the house or on a walk, I will keep a leash on unless in a fenced in area. I will treat your animal with the same sense of care as my own dog, making sure it is fed, walked, and especially - loved.
About: My family has fostered over 25 dogs throughout my lifetime, many of which we have adopted. I have a wide range of experience caring for dogs of different personalities, as well as different ages, from puppies to seniors. I work part time and have a fairly flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time make sure your pups get the care they deserve! When completing drop-in visits, I can easily play with your dog(s) if there is a fenced-in yard or measures in place to ensure their safety. If needed, I am also willing to take them for a walk if that is their usual schedule. I will complete all requested tasks with the utmost care and attention to detail.

I have taken care of my own fur baby for 11 years before she passed, she was the cutest feisty chihuahua.

About: I have years of experience dog-sitting and cat-sitting for friends and clients, often staying at their homes to make sure pets feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. My friends and clients trust me to care for their pets as if they were my own, and I'm committed to providing the best care possible!

I am also available on weekends, Friday to Sunday, for house pet sitting, so your pet will have plenty of attention and care even if you're away for an extended period! With years of experience in dog-sitting and cat-sitting, I understand the importance of creating a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I follow a consistent routine, ensuring pets feel secure and comfortable, and I take precautions to maintain a safe space within your home. I'm committed to reliable communication, sharing updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. By allowing each pet to approach me at their own pace, I foster trust and a positive bond, ensuring they feel comfortable and relaxed in my presence. Your pet's safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities.
About: I absolutely love going for walks and runs with dogs! Please see updated photos for some of my previous pet clients. Recently took care of a few hairless cats as well as a big dog! I’ve taken care of pets in many settings, including messier households! (Not a neat freak so messes do not bother me!) I trained my Doberman on Couch to 5k, running through all the trails in RI. I’ve taught my cat how to shuffle cards, play piano, and spin in a circle on command, and my mom’s old cat would always practice Pilates with us at 6 in the morning. Recently I dropped in for a friend’s 2 cats, even the shy one eventually warmed up to me! They required medication in their food so she left detailed, neatly handwritten notes on the table, which helped a lot! Known for my positive and caring energy as a music therapist (who works alongside a pet therapist!) and music teacher, and with a mom with a college degree in animal science, I have a passion for animals in general. She is now dating a farmer and we now have a baby cow named clover who I help take care of occasionally on Sundays. Generally I am available in the middle of the day most days of the week for one-off visits. My boyfriend is a biologist and also has a small dog who I walk frequently in the mornings and at midnight (she’s a night owl like us!) Available to do drop-ins at your home within 45 mins of Montville - please message me at least one week before your trip to solidify the booking! Please be kind, respectful, and professional in your requests - I do not take last minute visits but would love to help you out with your furry friend. Not a veterinarian, just an animal lover with a lot of compassion!! One of my favorite activities is running, I can always walk or run with your pet, or if you prefer us to lounge, I have lots of great pet-friendly shows on our nice TV. I love driving so I’m happy to drive to you if it’s further away - as I am regularly back and forth between Westerly, RI and Uncasville, CT. Outside of teaching in a formal studio, I’ve worked in client’s homes for therapy-related meetings as well as for music lessons - and believe it or not often times there are pets who love to sing along to the music! I usually stay home in the morning so I can easily take care of your pet between 7 am and 2 pm. I used to have an office job but found it too sedentary and draining; I discovered I thrive in outdoor and home environments. I’m excited to enter this new chapter and care for animals! I have a partially fenced yard so I would generally take pets out on a leash but it is a non-busy road and very safe - the lawn is freshly mowed and we have a playground your dog can weave around! I also have a cute little neighborhood that we can circle around that is far from the highway and if your pet loved car rides, we can always go to the park and get ice cream! Occasionally our neighbor’s dog likes to come over unsolicited but he is always very gentle and friendly! My cats are also used to my mom’s boyfriend’s rambunctious dogs coming in and out from time to time and we have plenty of doors and rooms in the house and baby gates if we ever needed to keep pets separate! We also have a spare pet bed if needed that was gifted to us - we always want to make sure your pet is comfortable sleeping at night!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Old Mystic is $18 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $26 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 850 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Old Mystic. 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 Old Mystic. 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 Old Mystic 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 Old Mystic. 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.
