About: Hi, I’m Sarah! 🐾 I absolutely LOVE animals, and I truly believe they all deserve plenty of love, attention, and belly rubs! I’ve had experience caring for cats, dogs, rabbits, and other small animals, so I’m comfortable with a variety of furry friends. I also completed an Animal Science program in high school, where I learned about animal behavior, how to read behavioral cues, and the basics of animal care and grooming. I’m happy to care for animals of all ages, sizes, and breeds! I understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs, and I’ll always do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! 💜🐶🐱 I currently work from home part-time and my daughter is in school 3 days a week. On school days and weekends my schedule is very open and flexible I prioritize every pet’s safety, comfort, and individual needs. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, routines, medications, and care. I respect pets’ boundaries, pay attention to their behavior, and make sure doors and gates are secure. I keep spaces clean, including litter boxes, and provide regular updates so owners have peace of mind while they’re away.

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.).

About: I’ve been working with and caring for animals my entire life. My experience includes working as a vet tech, groomer, trap & release, spay & nueter programs, pet sitting, dog walking, animal transport, rescue and fostering. I am also comforable with administering medications and working with all personality traits. I understand the pack dynamic and am not intimidated when handling multiple pet type homes and dogs of all sizes. I am patient and animals respond well to my calm and confident nature. I work full time through out the school year and part time during the summer and can easily adjust my work schedule to accommodate drop in visits and dog walking services. Visiting pets can be crated if needed or gated in their own room while I am away from home. While I am home they will be free to roam the house and enjoy outside time safely in my fenced in yard.

About: I have pet sit for friends and neighbors for a long time now, including dogs and cats. I grew up with almost any type of animal you can imagine, from little reptiles, to horses, with many in between. I currently have a dog, 2 cats, a few fish, and many chickens. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I currently have a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time to dedicate to pets. This allows me to give pets consistent attention, regular walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. I’m able to adjust my schedule around each pet’s specific needs and routine to make sure they feel comfortable and well cared for. I provide loving, attentive care for pets in both my home and my client’s home. I make sure pets are fed on their normal schedule, always have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and affection. I can follow any specific instructions regarding routines, medications, training, or special needs.

About: I have years of experience taking care of pets, both professionally and at home. I am a former dog groomer, so I understand dog and cat behavior and know how to keep them feeling safe and comfortable! I'd love the opportunity to take care of your furry family members. I currently have open availability to take care of your pets in the comfort of your home. I would love to go on walks with your dogs, and even offer in home bathing and grooming services for an additional charge. I will be sure to keep your pets safe and happy during our visits, playtime, and walks. I would love to send you updates throughout our times together if you'd prefer!

About: I've had at least one dog in my house since I was in first grade. My first dog is no longer with us however, I currently have a 9-year-old black lab and a 7-month-old silver lab. My dogs love to go on hiking trails, and with your permission, I can also take your dog to new locations. I unfortunately don't have experience with other people's dogs except for friends and family. I'm currently working part-time, so I'm very flexible with times. I will put my dogs' needs first, however, making sure I have time to give them the exercise and attention they deserve. My dogs are my best friends. I always show love and respect towards them. I also understand how a dog's life can be boring sometimes. Giving them a new environment to sniff out creates a happy and exhausted pup. I try to take my older dog on a new walk/hike every week to give them an adventure and something to look forward to. I'm hoping to provide the same for your dogs. I am also a runner, so I wouldn't mind running alongside your dog. Walking/hiking/running, whatever you prefer.

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!

About: I have cared for dogs, cats, goats, and cows for more than 20 years. I am known for spoiling pets a bit, and providing them with the attention they crave. I am available daytime and overnights! My schedule is flexible and will allow me to provide your pet with the the care and attention they deserve. I like to ensure an safe and caring environment for pets. I follow care instructions carefully and respect client's wishes. Your pet will be well-loved. My typical schedule is fairly flexible when I am not already booked, especially with advance notice. Please do not hesitate to ask me about availability! I like to be aware of how your pet usually behaves in your home, and what their typical weekday and weekend day is like. I want your pet to be as comfortable and feel that their environment is as "normal" as possible.

About: Pets don't need much to be happy. Most are content with some peanut butter for dogs, or maybe a treat for the kittens! We all know that a little patients goes a long way, and we don't always have to understand to be able to help, and give good happy lives :) I'm here to help! Right now I'm fully available. Please consider me a full time pet manager, and I mean I'll walk! I'll talk! And I'll adapt to whatever it is you need done! I care for pets with the focus on maintaining consistency for the pets. So whatever the owner wants. It's important to lay it all out, and allow for small errors on all sides, and later we will build everything we need to succeed and give vitality to the pets!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Pawcatuck

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Pawcatuck is $21 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $32 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 856 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Pawcatuck. 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 Pawcatuck. 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 Pawcatuck 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 Pawcatuck. On Rover:

  • 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.
