I received a video right away. My dog, Lucy, adapted to Brittany right away. Lucy is usually timid around new people, but was attached to Brittany with no problem! Will definitely be reaching out to Brittany again!

About: Hey! When it comes to loving animals and letting them chill, I’m your person. I’ve taken care of my neighbor, coworker, family and friends’ pets! I love them all and they’ll love my apartment. I cannot wait to take care of yours. I’m a professional writer working from home so I’m in my apt during the day and can spend time looking after your pet and giving them attention if they wish! I have the bay right across the street from my home so that’s where we’ll be walking! If the weather permits, we might even take a stroll to Manhattan Beach! I have a one bedroom apartment with an outdoor balcony and a high fence around it. There is lots of space indoors and out and no other pets live with me.

Ketevan was absolutely amazing! She took great care of my pup, was very understanding of my preferences and really went above and beyond with her service. She also sent updates and responded to my messages promptly. I truly appreciate a sitter like her while I am away from my baby. Would definitely pick her again.

About: My main goal is always making a pet feel loved, reassuring you that they are being cared after without your presence. I will always tend to their needs and provide any assistance that is needed for your loved one. Your pet is my top priority, I can ensure you I’ll give them the most amazing time of their lovely lives! Though I am fairly new to professionally pet sitting, I can guarantee that I am a passionate animal lover and fully devoted to pleasing both you and your pet! If your pet has special needs that need to be taken care of, please kindly provide instructions on how to proceed in order to make sure your pet is dealt with safely and properly I am free almost any time everyday since I have completed my college semester and begun my summer, so I am available for any pet at any time! They never leave my sight, and I love to get animals comfortable enough with me to the point where they don’t feel like wanting to wander off without me. I shower all animals with love, and my love has always been reciprocated by our furry friends

About: As soon as I moved out my Mothers house (my mom was allegedly allergic to all animals) the first thing I got before getting my first couch was a cat. I’ve always been a cat lover, they bring me so much joy and peace and would love to be able to take care of your little ones when you need someone to make sure they’re being looked after. I currently have a 1 year old named Yumi 🐈‍⬛ and a 1 month old kitten named Rami 🖤 🐈 They’re both super sweet. Yumi is usually very closed off in the beginning which is why I separate the cats initially and then slowly initiate an introduction with your fur babies to create a more peaceful atmosphere for everybody. I’ll be working part time. So I am free virtually all weekend. Plus late afternoon/evenings on weekdays! But I’m flexible, just reach out and let me know we can work something out. I live in a nice sized one bedroom apartment where there’s enough room for everyone to play. I have an elevator in my building so it’s very accessible for everybody.

Avary was fantastic! You can tell that she is comfortable and experienced. She took her time getting Otis and Maenard comfortable when putting on their harnesses and meeting them for the first time. She taught us some new tricks for an easier time getting dressed, too! She was thorough and had great energy. Excited for more walks in the future! Thank you again, Avary!

It’s been amazing experience with Shannakae as a first time user of Rover. She is very caring and patient with our Cane Corso. You can tell that she really enjoys what she does. She is very genuine and easy to talk to. Great with communication! Wow! We love that she looks out for our dog’s best interest by giving us any recommendations that make him feel more comfortable and safe. Our dogs fell in love with her right away. She takes care of Hachi as her own :) At first, I was a bit worried because we’ve never hired a dog walker through the app, but Shannakae gives us piece of mind. I would recommend hiring her anytime, hands down! We are extremely pleased and thankful for how well she takes care of Hachi. Your pet will be in good hands! She is very reliable, quick responsive and extremely friendly. Hachi adores her! We look forward to continuing working with you! :)

About: Animals have been a part of my life since childhood. I got my first cat when I was 8, later I had a dog, and since then caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I currently have 4 cats of my own, including pets with special medical needs, and I take pet care very seriously. My mom runs a rescue in my home country, so helping animals is something truly family-based for me. For me, this is not just extra income, I treat pet care as a serious responsibility, and I understand how much trust owners place when leaving their pets with someone. I have experience with rescue animals, senior pets, and cats with serious health conditions, including diabetes, urinary issues, post-surgery recovery, and cancer care. I am calm, patient, and very attentive to detail. Skills & Experience: 1) Administering insulin injections and basic medications 2) Caring for diabetic pets and monitoring health conditions 3) Experience with oncology (cancer) and post-surgery recovery care 4) Senior pet care (gentle handling, comfort-focused care) 5) Cat care: feeding routines, litter care, behavior observation 6) Nail trimming for cats 7) Basic teeth cleaning 8) Dog walking and general dog care experience 9) Experience rescuing and fostering around 10 cats 10) Reliable pet sitting for friends and family when they travel I always treat every pet as my own and make sure they feel safe, calm, and cared for while their owner is away. Pet care fits into my weekly routine on specific days. Right now, I am available on Tuesdays and Fridays, and I can do morning, afternoon, or even late-night visits depending on the booking. I already care for my own cats every day, including a very strict medical routine. I regularly check blood glucose levels and administer insulin injections twice a day. Because of this, I’m very responsible, consistent, and comfortable following precise schedules without missing details. Even though my availability is limited to certain days, I fully dedicate my time and attention during visits. I make sure every pet receives proper care, monitoring, and calm, attentive support. I always prioritize safety, routine, and a calm environment when caring for pets. I carefully follow each pet’s instructions, including feeding schedules, medication, and special medical needs. I have experience with cats requiring insulin injections, health monitoring, and strict daily routines, so I am very responsible and detail-oriented. In any home, I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free, and I always keep their environment clean and secure.

About: I've quantitatively proven that dog is Mans' best friend. My pet sitting experiences have taught me how to care for senior dogs with illnesses, how to care for untrained dogs, as well as how to take care of the coats of double coated dogs(Siberian Huskies). I'm currently working part time from home, with flexible hours, which gives me the opportunity to take care of your loved ones! I'm currently staying in a suburban/residential area which provides quiet sidewalks and parks for enrichment. And for those pooches who love a good walk and the great outdoors, there are beaches and nature trails only 30 minutes away, where I'd be happy to take them, on leash of course! Flexible schedule makes me available to board and care for the dogs of your family whenever. I am located in a suburban area of Brooklyn, with options for on leash trail and beach walks for pooches that walk for multiple hours. I have a fenced yard with a auto closer. Also have a smart collar, which your dog could borrow for walks, to add an extra degree of security.

About: I have been gaining solid pet sitting experience for about four years now. I love being of real assistance to those in my community and getting to spend time with pets is always such a wonderful experience! Currently, I am taking college classes part-time, but a lot of my coursework is online. This allows me the freedom to care for your pets without sacrificing my daily routine and schedule. I'm fully available on the weekends, and I have great availabilities for weekdays as well! I have a partially fenced yard, and 3 pets staying at my house (1 small breed dog, and 2 foster cats). My house is spacious and has designated areas for the animals to play around in, along with lots of toy and treats of course!

About: I have had experience caring for pets since I was 7 years old. I have had a range of animals in my care: golden retrievers, chihuahuas, dachshunds, pit bulls, quarter horses, cattle, and a variety of cats. I am a very patient animal person and I really enjoy getting to know each animal for their own preferences and personalities! I regularly take my own dog, a 8 year old Staffordshire Terrier, on 3 walks a day at around 30-45 minutes each time. Her name is Nova and she is a very easygoing pup, and the apple of my eye!! We have a harmonious and loving home and I would treat anyone's pet with as much care and attention as I do with my own. I currently work part time, so I can dog walk almost any time as long as it doesn’t interfere with the rock-climbing classes that I teach during the week and on weekend mornings! I have lots of experience in doing drop-in visits in my child and teenage years, so I like to do long check-ins that range from 30 minutes to an hour for activity, meal time, and cuddling.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Roxbury

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Roxbury on Rover is $36.63 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 27,828 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Roxbury. 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 Roxbury. 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 Roxbury.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 Roxbury. On Rover:

  • 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
