Wonderful dog walkers. Pat was critical to helping me successfully interview for a job (including full days of Zoom) without whiny dogs in the background and was highly responsive and flexible in scheduling. We are looking forward to boarding our dogs with them and only wish they had greater availability (but of course, top dog walkers/boarders are busy!).

Kaylee walked my dog daily while I was on vacation. She was prompt, professional and gave my dog a little extra TLC every day. She sent pictures and daily updates. I would definitely recommend Kaylee!

Samantha was on time very morning to walk our dogs, was great about staying in touch with updates and photos. She was also super patient with our one pup who has been healing from a wounded shoulder so could/would only walk short distances. She was flexible and adaptable to make sure she still got attention. We were able to relax during vacation knowing Samantha was there every morning for our doggos.

About: I’ve been around animals ever since I was born. I live on a farm and have been taking care of different animals as long as I can remember. I understand each pet has a different personality and I look forward to learning everything about them and accommodating in any way they may need. I work part time on the weekends but am free throughout the week to give your pet lots of love and the care they need. I have a fairly large yard and love going for walks. I also have a wonderful dog who is extremely friendly and slightly shy/awkward. Whatever enrichment your animal needs, I will do everything in my power to provide.

About: I have been a lifelong animal lover since I was a little kid, My first pet being a sweet stray cat my family took in before I was even 5 years old. I have years of hands-on experience caring for and loving pets, my own of course and many others that have trusted me to care for theirs. I truly enjoy getting to know each pets personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable and loved while you're away on summer vacation or for a couple days on work. Regardless of age, energy level or if your dog/cat simply needs more snuggles, exercise or play time throughout the day. While I am new to Rover I have a lot of experience with things like daily dog walking, providing medications (pills, topical treatments,) house sitting, drop-in visits, dog walking and even boarding pets in my home. I am also great at reading an animals body language which helps me connect better with anxious or shy pets to help make them feel as comfortable as possible. Spending time with animals is one of the best parts of my day, it fits naturally into my routine and brings me a lot of joy. I am very reliable, trustworthy and have a flexible schedule so I am able to work with you to create a schedule that you're most comfortable with. My home is spacious with 2 friendly cats and 2 well-socialized dogs who all coexist peacefully and are used to having new furry friends around for a temporary time. Pets in my home are all treated like family where they receive plenty of love, playtime, cuddles and socialized attention. My backyard is fenced in for safe outdoor exercise or just to hangout and catch a breeze on a nice day, my neighborhood also includes many quiet side streets for daily walking if needed. My home is air conditioned on those days that are just too hot and heated when it gets too cold. There is a big basket on the floor full with multiple types of toys, an easy accessible water bowl that's refilled at least 3xs per day, food or things on counter is not left anywhere that can be easily reached and harmful plants/chemicals to animals are not brought/used in my home.

Paul has been a great asset to getting the stimulation my German shepherd was bred to need! Both of my dogs respond so well to him. They’re very Intuitive dogs that instantly pick up on someone’s nervousness or lack of confidence - but Paul comes in with a confident but clam nature that they sense immediately. Both my dogs have struggled with reactivity - but have had no issues with him.

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for my own dogs, I helped take care of my first dog when he was a senior, and I’ve been taking care of the dog I have now since he was a puppy he’s now 10. I also have 3 years of experience taking care of cats, I have one of my own and I help take care of my sisters. People who know me describe me as responsible and I’m signing up for this app because I love animals and I am trying to make a little extra money before I go to college in the fall. I am available monday - sunday at all hours of the day for whatever your pet needs. This is currently my only job and it has my full attention. I will not be able to provide boarding in my home because my dog does not get along well with other dogs, but I am available to stop in and see your pets whenever needed to feed them, take them outside, walk them, and just to play with them. I can also do overnight stays if that is what your pet requires.

About: I love dogs and cats! I do not currently own a dog or cat, but I volunteer with Our Companions in their Adopt a Shelter program spending time visiting and walking dogs in local shelters, and I have volunteered at their animal sanctuary in Ashford walking dogs. I am also in their Canine College program, taking and assisting in dog training classes. I enjoy using positive training techniques (treats and praise) to reinforce polite dog walking and attentive behaviors. I am comfortable walking dogs up to 70 lbs. I have recently retired, which gives me some flexibility, and I am participating in a Canine College dog training program. I love dogs, and I am looking for more opportunities to meet and spend time with dogs. I also enjoy cats and would be happy to house sit and/or walk your cat as well! My recent experiences with Our Companions Animal Sanctuary and Canine College programs are teaching me so much about being a pet guardian for different kinds of dogs. I am learning about dog body language and how to help engage dogs in enrichment, calming, and attention-game activities while in a home, in a yard, and on a walk. I have friends who own cats, and I enjoy getting to know them as well.

Ermelinda is truly amazing. Our skittish dog warmed up to her after the very first walk. The care instructions for our dog, Bella, was a laundry list and Ermelinda followed them to the letter. Your dogs will be in great hands with her. I highly recommend her services!

I am available most days to walk, run, or visit your cat or pup until I go back to college. I am currently not working another job so my schedule is open. I have a lot of experience dog and cat sitting before I came to college and during the summer. I have my own two dogs back home that are part of our family and a cat!

About: 🐾 Hi, I'm Jen! 🐾 Dogs have always been the center of my life. As a devoted dog owner and active dog rescue volunteer, I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. My rescue work has given me hands-on experience with everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs and those who need a little extra patience, understanding, and special care. I believe every dog is unique, and I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and individual needs. Whether your pup needs a fun walk to burn off energy, a drop-in visit while you're at work, medication administration, feeding, playtime, or simply some extra love and attention, I will care for them as if they were my own. Safety, reliability, and communication are my top priorities. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else's care, so I always provide updates and photos to give you peace of mind while you're away. My goal is simple: to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, comfortable, and loved, while giving you confidence that they are in caring and experienced hands. 🐶 Services Offered: • Dog Walking • Drop-In Visits • Feeding & Fresh Water • Medication Administration (if needed) • Puppy Potty Breaks • Senior Dog Care • Playtime, Enrichment & Companionship I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members. Let's schedule a meet-and-greet—I can't wait to meet your pup! 🐾💕 Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. As a lifelong pet owner and active rescue volunteer, caring for animals is something I do every day. My routine revolves around feeding, exercising, monitoring, and spending quality time with pets, ensuring their physical and emotional needs are met. Because animals are already such an important part of my lifestyle, I am able to provide dependable, attentive care and easily incorporate dog walks and drop-in visits into my schedule. Caring for pets isn't just something I do—it's something I genuinely enjoy and am passionate about. Safety, trust, and environment are my top priorities when caring for pets. I always make sure animals are secure, supervised, and comfortable in their surroundings. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, behavior, and needs so they feel safe and stress-free while in my care. I believe trust is built through clear communication, reliability, and consistent updates, so pet parents always know how their pets are doing. I also aim to create a calm, positive environment where pets feel at ease, whether we’re on a walk or during a drop-in visit.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Stafford Springs

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Stafford Springs on Rover is $23.54 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 1,801 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Stafford Springs. 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 Stafford Springs. 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 Stafford Springs.

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 Stafford Springs. On Rover:

  • 97% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.
