“Bridget M. spent four one-hour visits with Ginger providing love and walks. I appreciated her detailed descriptions of each visit, and the many photos she provided. I highly recommend Bridget to anyone who has a pet that needs love, patience and exercise.”

“My dog instantly loved Kaylee! She never lets anyone pet her the first time. Lucy let Kaylee pet her and tonight she even gave her kisses! I feel so much better knowing Kaylee is going to be walking Lucy every weekend over the next few months!”
About: We love dogs in our house. We've had 3 dogs of different sizes at one time. I loved going for bike rides with my Husky and my Border Terrier. Now we have a small Border Terrier named Indy. I love training dogs to do tricks, and just cuddling up in bed or the couch. Your dog friend will be have a blast with us and get all the love. I particularly like large dogs and I don't mind them jumping on me when they're excited, they just think they're little in their heads. My kids, of course, like the little ones and are always ready to play and be gentle with the little guys. Your dog will be just one more family member to us. I work from home, and I can take frequent breaks for walks, playtime, potty breaks. I rarely spend more than a couple of hours out of the house if I do go out. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and secure environment where pets feel safe and cared for. I follow each pet's routine closely, including feeding, exercise, medications, and enrichment. Whether in my home or yours, I make sure the space is pet-proofed, monitored, and filled with love and positive attention. I believe in earning your pet’s trust through patience and consistency, and I always treat them like part of the family.
About: Hi👋 I'm Jill. I grew up on a farm and have always been around dogs & cats. I currently have two cats of my own. They were both strays and came into my life at different times. I love interacting with all types of animals. Since I can't have a dog of my own yet due to living situations, I would love to take care of yours! My sister and brother in-law have two dogs that I watch when they go out of town. One is a bigger 70 lbs Australian Shepard and the other is a smaller 10 lbs toy poodle. I hope to bring peace of mind to you and happiness & excitement to your pets. I work full time, but am available anytime on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays most weeks. 6 a.m. is the earliest I'm available and 10:30 p.m. is the latest. Availability breakdown: Sundays- Before 11 a.m. after 5:30 p.m. Mondays- After 7:30 p.m. Tuesdays- 6 a.m. - 9:30 p.m. (Anytime) Wednesdays- After 3:30 p.m. Thursdays- 6 a.m. - 9:30 p.m. (Anytime) Fridays- Before 8:45 a.m. after 7:30 p.m. Saturdays- 6 a.m. - 10:30 p.m. (Anytime) My two cats are grazers so they get fed twice a day and eat when they get hungry. They have a water fountain that circulates the water to mimick a stream. They seem to enjoy moving water better than still standing in a bowl. When I watch my sister & brother in-laws dogs I take them for walks twice a day and we play & cuddle. I work on tricks with them too. I normally use their dry food as treats if we work on tricks for a while.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine love, care, and patience with every dog I look after.

Whether it’s providing extra attention to senior dogs or simply offering a calm and nurturing presence, I take the time to cater to each dog’s individual personality and needs. Your dog will feel like they’re in the best hands, with plenty of love and patience every step of the way! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I prioritize flexibility and planning. With a short 10-minute commute and my work hours from 8 AM to 4:30 PM, I’m able to offer midday walks, quick play sessions, and personal check-ins during lunch breaks or right after work. I make sure to adjust my schedule to ensure your pet gets plenty of attention, whether it’s in the mornings, evenings, or weekends. My routine allows me to stay consistent with care, while giving your pet the love, attention, and exercise they need every day! In my home, pets enjoy a safe, comfortable space with plenty of playtime, cuddles, and a consistent routine. I provide individual attention to each pet, ensuring they feel relaxed and cared for. In your home, I maintain your pet’s regular schedule, offer companionship, and provide daily updates. Whether at my place or yours, I prioritize your pet’s comfort, security, and happiness, treating them like family.

When caring for your pets my priority is maintaining their routine to minimize stress. I respect your space and your pet’s boundaries, ensuring they have plenty of interaction, playtime, and fresh water!

About: I’ve had dogs growing up since 1st grade. My family has owned reactive dogs over the years who need a little extra care and attention and also 6 dogs at once ( I have lots of cute photos) . I also currently work at a professional Dog Daycare full time with dogs of different sizes,ages, and temperaments. I distribute medication, do feedings, and I interact with them by doing stimulating activities. I currently have a pup of my own Miss Muffin, and I would love to care for you’re pet the way how I care for my own and the dogs I work with everyday! Pet care has always been in a routine for me growing up so it’s my normal. I’ve never not had a pet or multiple around in my daily life. I work with dogs I live with a pup and I want to continue to always work with them and give them what they need however I can. I have a 5 month old pup who goes to daycare who is super socialized and good company if your pets like the company of other pets. She also is great with dogs of any sizes. We are on a constant schedule of bathroom breaks every 2-3 hours and we have our feeding schedule,activity times and of course training throughout the day every moment is a learning moment for a dog. Whenever I go out to places I make sure the dog can come as I like to have my pet with me as much as I can personally.
About: I am a huge animal lover I play with my dogs all day long. I love to take them on walks, I have a small kiddie pool my dogs love to play in, and boxes full of dog toys. I would be very attentive and love to pet sit. Any job taking care of animals is my dream job! I’m home all day long and have a very active lifestyle so I’m very confident if I pet sit that the animals would all have a wonderful time together. My dogs are very friendly and would love to have play dates with other pets so I think this would also be great for them and for me as well. I hope to hear from you all soon! :)
About: I’ve cared for pets throughout the years , walking , dog sitting , cat sitting etc, I’m a great communicator and I am very coachable. Whatever you need done I’ll do my best to make that happen ! I’m working a full time job currently but I can always work around my schedule to make time for you and your pet, I’m always near my phone so communication is huge for me and won’t be an issue Whatever catering needs that’s requested for your home or pet i am more than willing to fulfill. You tell me what is needed and I will get it done !
About: I have 1.5 years of experience working hands on in a local dog and puppy rescue. I foster puppies, and we have 3 of our own dogs. I am used to dog and puppy shenanigans and would love to meet yours! I am currently in between jobs, and I am looking for something to fill my days while still enjoying what I am doing. I love dogs! Daily care, food, water, treats, enrichment, play time, walks, socialization, etc! Dogs being in a crate all day can get boring and gives dogs (and puppies especially) too much time to think about how to get into trouble LOL.
About: I have over 10 years of professional pet care experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. From energetic puppies to senior dogs and those who need a little extra patience, I’m committed to providing safe, reliable, and compassionate care. I treat every pet like family and strive to make them feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away! I’m current working full time, and booking walks/drop-in visits mostly on my days off. While house sitting I do continue to work 8 hour shifts, but provide walks before and afterwards to ensure your pup’s routine isn’t changing too much! Honestly, I tend to treat my client’s homes like museums. I am very respectful of your space and belongings, and I take the trust that is placed in me to be in your home seriously. I am very clean, organized, and will leave your home the same way I found it!

The average cost for Dog Walking in South Shore on Rover is $16.65 per walk (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 2,394 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across South Shore. 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 South Shore. 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 South Shore.

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 South Shore. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
