“Pat’s been doing a wonderful job with Rudy. I know he loves his time with her and she is dedicated to making ours dogs happy. She takes the time to interact with them and learn what they like. Couldn’t be more grateful. She’s also had great advice for me along the way when I would ask for help. Don’t hesitate to reach out to her!”

“Milo had such a great experience today! 😊 Paisley was incredibly kind, attentive, and clearly cared about him. She made sure he got everything he needed, followed all of my instructions, and gave me peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. It’s obvious she genuinely enjoy working with dogs, and Milo came back happy and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend her and will be continuously using her walking services. Thank you for taking such great care of my boy!”

“Samantha has been incredible! She’s so attentive to our dogs, helpful with our home, and respectful in all ways you can imagine. We appreciate how communicative she is while taking care of our furbabies, and so incredibly kind and easy to get along with! We’ve had some last minute plans made recently and were in a pinch for some dog care and she was available! The dogs do so well with her too which is huge! Thank you Samantha for your kindness and for what you do!”

About: As a certified and insured pet sitter I am qualified to care for a variety of pets. I am a calm and nurturing which helps me to gain animals' trust. I have had a lot of experience with shy or feral cats. As a pet owner of a severely asthmatic cat, I am adept at giving medications, such as pills and inhalers. I am a special education teacher and am off for the summer. I am also available after school and on weekends to do visits or pet sitting. I prefer to care for pets in their own home so that they are more comfortable and less stressed. I can do check-in or longer visits.

About: My very first job was working with dogs. I’ve always had a passion for the fur babies! I have a 5 year old pit bull who absolutely loves making new pup friends and a 12 year old daughter who adores all animals! I work Monday-Friday between 9am-5pm but make sure your fur baby is tended to before and after work just as I do my own :) I have a fenced in yard which helps make sure they have lots of space for running around. During the daytime hours while I’m away, the dogs are kept safe in separated areas of the house but are always left with a comfy bed, food and toys. The dogs have free roam of the house during the day and are either kenneled (if crate trained) or separated when not being watched directly. Dogs are let out in the fenced in yard multiple times a day and are given tons of attention :)

“Erin was great with my dog Willow. At the meet and greet she was professional and personable. Willow has a little trouble with meeting strangers for the first time and Erin handled it perfectly. Willow warmed up to her on the first walk and adapted to Willow’s initial shyness by feeding her from under our side table by the couch where she likes to hide. She took excellent photos and kept me informed. I highly recommend Erin.”

About: I have a 6 year old Jack Russel/Chihuahua that is the sweetest most loving girl! I have trained her myself since she was a puppy, I have learned SO much. I have a schedule that’s a little all over the place but I’m willing to work out different times through the week that best suits you and your dog. It’s something that would have to be discussed based on your wants and needs for your dog. All dogs are different, every dog owner is different. But I would be sure to feed, give them water and walk as needed.

About: Although I have less experience in dog care in comparison to taking care of cats, I live an active lifestyle and am fully capable of going on walks with any dog’s typical walk regime. As a student who’s home for the summer, I have a flexible schedule I dedicate to spending time with my or any of my friends’ pets. I care for pets by referring to the owners and following any procedures based on the pet’s needs. I’m capable of basic maintenance and problem solving.

About: I have grown up with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, fish etc. My biggest joke is I take care of other people’s pets so I don’t bring home any other animals. I own 3 cats myself. I work with all breeds and love what I do. I take care of all pets as if they were my own. I work full time at WestMass ElderCare. I am at work for 8 hours. . On my breaks I love giving pets and kisses to the fur babies! I own a 1 bedroom condo. I board on a case to case basis. Your dog must be ok with a leash, somewhat smaller space and be ok ignoring cats. (I own 3)

About: Dogs have and will always be a huge part of my life. We got our first family dog when I was just 3 years old and the rest is history. My husband Jack is extremely passionate about animals as well and is my partner in all of this so you get two dog sitters for the price of one. Between the two of us your pet will get so much love, cuddles & exercise. We guarantee a level of attention and care that I feel confident your pet won’t get anywhere else; between this and Rover taking it’s fee our prices might be on the high side but they reflect our level of personalized and professional level of care. I also just want to add that our love for dogs extends to all animals so cats etc are all welcome to come hang with us :) Important Note: if you are reaching out for house sitting my husband and I only take those if we both are allowed to stay the night. We prefer to do this for safety as well as enabling the best care possible for your pet. Your pets will be my top priority & my main focus when they stay with us! I feel pretty confident that they will get more quality time, attention & lovin with me then any other pet sitter! I have a smoke free home and do not have any dogs currently living at my house so your pets will be my only focus! Also a child free home!

About: I have owned and cared for many pets as well as working for the forest park zoo tending to animals and socializing with them, as well as working as a dog groomer and a dog kennel attendant. I am very passionate and serious about pet care, our fluffy friends deserve the best. I have plenty of experience with elderly and special needs animals, as well as experience administering medication. As someone who owns many animals of my own, a dog, a cat, a multitude of small animals and reptiles, my entire life consists of caring for animals. It’s my main passion. I am available for bookings all day Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and available for mornings every other day of the week! I am a trustworthy person able to remember the schedule of your pets and any extra care they may need. Due to working in grooming for so long, I am excellent in time management and understanding the body language of dogs. I love to take my own dogs outside and play with them with a ball or a toy to help them get enrichment. I am also incredibly interested in training and find respect and boundaries to be very important when forming a relationship with an animal.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Southwick

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Southwick is $20 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $9 and $34 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 October 2026, there are 1,925 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Southwick. 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 Southwick. 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 Southwick 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 Southwick. On Rover:

  • 90% 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 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.
