About: I have been around animals my entire life and love every furry friend like they’re my own. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including high energy puppies, senior dogs, and anxious personalities. I’ve raised my own dogs from puppies, so I understand the patience, consistency, and love that go into caring for them at every stage of life. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering medications, and making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just cuddles, I tailor my care to each pet’s needs. I understand firsthand how important it is to trust someone, so I always prioritize communication, reliability, and a calm, positive environment. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I work from home. I’m available throughout the day for walks, feedings, playtime, and potty breaks. Being home allows me to give pets consistent attention instead of leaving them alone for long periods. At my home, I have a small fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time. Safety is always my top priority, and I keep a structured, calm environment while still making sure they get plenty of love and attention. I also have three friendly pugs who are well socialized and used to being around other dogs, so your pup will have built-in companionship and playmates (if they enjoy other dogs!). I always introduce dogs slowly and make sure everyone is comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their exact routine including feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate time, and house rules to keep things as consistent and stress-free as possible. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved whether they’re in my home or theirs.

About: I have 3 years of experience taking care of cats and dogs of a variety of breeds, and have worked with puppies as well as older pets in home environments such as suburbs, cities, and rural areas. I am happy to cater to your pet's special needs, and I focus on respecting each pet's boundaries and getting to know them on a case by case basis, with the hope that they grow to trust me as much as they trust you! Since I am a writer who works remotely, I am open on a weekly basis and am able to be flexible in order to meet your scheduling requirements. I work hard to ensure that your pet's personal boundaries are not crossed while we take time to get to know each other. I especially care about learning their preferences in order to earn their favor and eventually their trust. Depending on each pet, I try to be very sensitive to any shifts in their mood or behavior, such as if they get anxiety when left alone or are afraid of loud weather.

About: I've taken care of dogs most of my life. My friends jokingly call me the dog whisperer. I have experience with everything from potty training to surgical rehab and medicine administration. Nighttime visits and Long walks are no sweat. I'm also very neat and clean so any messes made by your pups are no problem at all. My schedule is currently open 7 days a week. If for any reason I am not available pet owners will be made aware before scheduling any services. I recently lost both my pups to cancer. Thorn was almost 15, and my girl Rain was almost 13. Being around other dogs is helping me cope with their loss. My home yard is very large (over an acre), and fully fenced in. Dogs also don't have any furniture restrictions in my home. They're welcome to sit or sleep wherever they like. If sitting in your home I abide by your rules for everything. Dinner time, kinds of treats, or walks schedules are all set by you.

About: Hi, I’m Emily. I grew up with all kinds of pets and have always had animals in my life, so taking care of them just comes naturally to me. I’m starting school for radiology in September, so my schedule is pretty open right now and I’d love to help however I can. I’ve taken care of pets for family, friends, and neighbors for years, and I genuinely love being around animals. I’m reliable, patient, and careful to follow any instructions exactly as given. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities—whether they’re energetic, shy, or need a little extra care. I’m also respectful of your space and always aim to leave your home just as I found it. Communication is important to me, and I’ll always keep you updated so you feel at ease while you’re away. I have a very flexible schedule right now with full availability during the week and weekends, which allows me to focus on providing reliable pet care. Once I begin school this fall, I’ll continue to offer care on evenings and weekends. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or some one-on-one attention, I’m happy to help when you need it. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pets in someone else’s care. I’m a pet owner myself and have animals at home, so I truly understand how much they mean to you. I always make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I follow instructions carefully, stick to routines, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m also respectful of your home and aim to make the whole process as easy and stress-free as possible for both you and your pets.

About: As a current pet store employee, I’m constantly refreshing my knowledge on all animals so that I can better help any pet parents that come in. This includes staying up to date on care and training practices, as well as knowing what products are useful and needed and when they may be needed. I also work closely with the grooming and training team, so I have a bit of knowledge in those areas as well! As a college graduate with a biology degree who’s main focus was on animals of all kind, I take animal care very seriously. I constantly am reading up on care and learning to understand animal body language as best as humanly possible. My animals mean the world to me, and I know others feel the same way about theirs. If theres any way I can assure people their pets and comfortable and safe while they’re away, that’s what I try to do. I am very vigilant while I am watching any type of pet, meaning I’m always making sure they are not getting into anything they shouldn’t, that they are properly restrained when outside of the home, and that they are living in a clean home while I am there. Cats litter boxes scooped daily, dogs walked daily and well engaged in activity, and any other pets properly cared for as well.

About: I live in Waterville and would love to watch your fur babies. I have had a dog my whole life mostly labs but I really enjoy dogs and watching their interactions with humans and with other pets. My pups go everywhere with me especially on hikes they are troopers. Wouldn't mind having some other dogs to accompany us. I am currently working full time from home with a flexible schedule. I take my dogs for walks around the neighborhood on breaks and lunches. I have a large back yard with a lot of room to play ball or to fetch. I have other friendly playful dogs that would love to have some play mates.

About: I am an avid animal lover who owns two dogs (a 5 year old cocker spaniel-poodle along with a 3 year old cocker spaniel-poodle). My animals are my life and I love meeting other fur babies :) I take my own dogs on walks and car rides nearly daily and I have been trusted to care for my extended families’ pets as well. I am very protective over all of my animals, making sure they’re safe and healthy, but I also spoil them with treats often. I feel I am very prepared to take care of other people’s animals because I understand the importance fur babies are in people’s lives, and I would do everything I can to protect them like they’re my own. I do work at Kelberman Monday-Friday 8-4, but I am available to stop in before or after work as long as I have a proper notice. At my own home, I have a fenced in yard where I play fetch with my dogs for HOURS. I love a good walk and love taking dogs for walks :)

About: I’ve always been an animal lover. When I was a child I had all sorts of different pets. I had fish, hamsters, gerbils, lizards and rabbits. When I got older I had a family dog named Lulu who I helped house brake and train as a pup when I was in high school. When I became an adult I adopted my dog Weston who I’ve had and trained since he was an eight week old puppy. I’m very confident in my ability to help house train your young dog if need be. I understand how much stimulation and exercise they require. I’m happy to provide that through long walks, trips to the dog park and general outings. I have lots of chew toys around and ways to keep feisty puppies occupied. I’ve fostered cats as well as taken care of neighbors’ kittens including providing feedings and litter box cleaning when necessary. I’ve always wanted to have a parrot as a pet so if you have birds that need care I’d appreciate the opportunity to come help out and learn more about them :). I’m currently a full time pet sitter. I have a dog of my own as well. I will be available all hours of the day and night to care for your animal(s). I’m happy to spend the extra time taking puppies in training as well as senior dogs outside as much as they need. I have a friendly golden doodle named Weston to keep your pup company. I’m happy to help house brake puppies as well as provide care for senior animals.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Sauquoit

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Sauquoit on Rover is $34.41 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 193 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Sauquoit. 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 Sauquoit. 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 Sauquoit.

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 Sauquoit. On Rover:

  • 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
