“I was so grateful to find Allie and can’t wait to use her in the future. I don’t have animals but my parents and in laws do who we watch often. It was so nice to have peace of mind while I’m at work that they were taken care of. Allie came over to do a meet and greet before hand and the dogs immediately felt comfortable and loved her. She is responsible, caring, and a total animal lover. I can’t wait to use her in the future and will definitely recommend her to everyone I know!”

“Adriana has been a life saver for myself and my dog, Donut. He looks forward to his time with her, and his walks. She has helped to teach him not to pull when being walked on the leash which makes it so much easier and enjoyable when I walk him also. I’ve been able to call her on short notice when my schedule has changed and she has always been accommodating. We recommend her without hesitation!”

About: I've been around dogs my entire life and have always loved caring for them. I currently live with my parents, where we have two family dogs, an Australian Kelpie and a Border Collie/Lab mix. So I'm very comfortable with energetic dogs and understand the importance of exercise, routine, and positive attention. Since graduating high school five years ago, I've regularly dog sat for friends and family, caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Whether it's going for walks, stopping by for drop-in visits, or keeping your pup company while you're away, I'll make sure they receive the same love, care, and attention I'd want for my own dogs. I currently work four days a week, so I'm available for pet care on Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays. On the days I work, I don't start until 1:00 PM, which means I'm also available for morning walks and drop-in visits before work. I do my best to be flexible and communicate clearly, so you can count on dependable care that fits your pet's routine! At this time, I only offer care in my clients' homes, where I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable in their familiar environment. I take the time to follow each owner's care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any other routines that help your pet feel safe and secure.

Ashley has been a huge help as we have transitioned back to work and getting to the office. Daisy loves her time with Ashley, so we have been extremely happy.”

About: I have grown up with both small and large dogs in my life, from puppies to older dogs with medical needs. I am very careful and alert with my dogs to make sure they don’t get hurt or eat anything they shouldn’t. I love to be active and have experience with training, including leash walking. I have a soft spot for dachshunds, but I truly love all dogs. I am a teacher, so I have a flexible schedule during the summer. I have a lot of availability at night since I work part time during summer days and make my own schedule. I have a very clean home that is very pet friendly, since I have three dogs of my own - a dachshund, a black lab mix, and a cattle dog corgi mix. I can easily crate your dog or contain them in a room (included a gated kitchen) if requested. I also have two gated decks that my dogs love to sunbath on, a nice backyard, and sidewalks around my house for walks.

About: Hello! I'm a Fear Free Certified Professional that provides expert pet care. As an insured member of Pet Sitters Associates and a certified Pet First Aid/CPR Instructor I guarantee the safe, stress-free care your pets deserve. I currently offer housesitting, drop-in visits, dog walking and house call grooming services. I look forward to pampering and caring for your Very Important Pets! I am currently focusing on expanding my pet care client base and I am completely available for pet care around the clock. My only obligations are my own 2 dogs, who my fiancé and I share responsibilities of and do not come with me for housesitting jobs. When providing overnight pet care in your home, I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort every step of the way. Your pet stays relaxed in their familiar environment, enjoying consistent routines, personalized attention, and loving companionship throughout the night. At the same time, I treat your home with the utmost care—keeping it tidy, secure, and respected as if it were my own. If needed, I have an air mattress to bring and my own necessities. Additionally, I always come prepared with a Pet First Aid Kit, extra leashes and collars, poop bags, and have safety tethers in my vehicle for safe transportation. I do not bring or invite guests (my human or my dogs) without explicit permission of the client. I respect my client's privacy and understand that client's pets are not always comfortable with strangers.

About: Hi there—my name is Jordan! I've been caring for pets since I was young. I have experience with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, fish, and reptiles. I currently have an 8 year old cat named Walter and a 15 year old turtle named Lucille. Walter has a heart condition which requires medication every 12 hours so I am well versed with administering meds. I will always abide by your pet’s feeding schedules, walk times, medication administration (if needed), and any training or house rules you’ve put in place. I treat your home with the same respect and consideration I give my own. In my free time I enjoy hiking, reading, and painting. I love the outdoors so I'm prepared to give your dog tons of exercise. I also love to lounge around, so I’m happy to adjust my energy to match your pet’s. After each walk or drop-in visit, I’ll send you a detailed update with plenty of photos. For overnight stays, I typically send three updates per day but I’m happy to adjust that based on your preferences. I know firsthand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. I do everything I can to help you rest assured that your pet is in caring hands. My work hours are 8am-5pm Mon, Tues, & Thurs. I'm off Wed, Fri, Sat, & Sun. I am flexible and can often do short notice/emergency jobs. I will abide by all of your requests and be nothing but a safe space for your animal. Your pet will always be my top priority.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Old Saybrook

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Old Saybrook is $28 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $37 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 1,657 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Old Saybrook. 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 Saybrook. 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 Saybrook 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 Saybrook. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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.
