“Hannah is definitely the best walker I have ever met. She is so responsive and sweet, always having a safe and happy walking journey with my doggy. I will always go back to her.”
“How do I even begin. James came into our world when our rescue senior needed walks throughout the day. For 5 months he made her feel loved and safe everyday. I would trust James with anyone and any pet. Besides his overwhelmingly empathetic presence, James is also reliable, prompt, and an amazing communicator. No matter the day, time, weather, etc, we knew we could always count on James. I truly could not recommend him enough”
“Johnna is fantastic. My dog, Miso, was instantly comfortable with her (and she's not a dog that warms up to everyone). Johnna clearly has a way with animals. She was also wonderful about following all the directions involved in walking a dog who can be challenging. We are very happy to have found Johnna!”
About: I am a college student who majors in Biomedical Sciences and plans to attend veterinary school after graduation. I have always had a love for animals, especially dogs, since I was young, and have helped care for my own dog since childhood. My passion for animal care has been my motivation to pursue a future in veterinary medicine. Along with caring for my own dogs, I have had experience with dog sitting and dog walking. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities while making sure they are happy, safe, active, and well cared for. I am currently a college student home for summer break, and I am looking for part-time work. I am available almost every day until August 1st. I will be home again for Thanksgiving break, winter break, and spring break. When caring for pets in my client's home, I would follow the pet's normal routine and follow any additional instructions my client has left me while playing and caring for their pet.
“Ailish was incredibly flexible and took such great care of my dog, Josie. I felt completely at ease knowing Josie was in such good hands. Reliable, caring, and easy to work with—I highly recommend her!”
“Heather is amazing with our dogs! She is so patient and has taken the time to get to know their unique personalities- and work with them! Both of our dogs can be a bit vocal on leash, and she has handled them so well. She walks them 3x a week and is always so good at communicating what time she will be there, and how the boys were with her. Highly recommend her for any of your pet care needs!”
About: I've had a dog of my own for about 10 years, and I’ve also cared for other dogs for up to 5 days at a time. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I love being around dogs—they genuinely make me happy. I’m comfortable with puppies and senior dogs and always try to adjust to each dog’s pace and needs. I treat every dog like my own and aim to make them feel safe, loved, and at ease while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I work remotely with flexible hours, so I’m available for regular walks throughout the day. I love taking breaks to get outside, and walking dogs is the perfect way to add movement and joy to my daily routine. I do my best to follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they have fresh food and water, get plenty of playtime and affection (if they want it!), and keep their space clean. I respect the client’s home, leave everything as I found it, and always keep in touch with updates and photos.
“I really appreciate the time and consideration Angela had with Maple! She was mindful of length of the walks during hot days and spent the rest of the time watching Maple. I can tell Maple had a great time with her! Highly recommend!”
“Lisa has been a dog walking life saver. She consistently arrives on time, is an excellent communicator, and my shy pups clearly adore her. Sadly, this has not been the case with all of my Rover dog walkers. I could not recommend her more!”

About: I've been a go-to pet and house sitter for friends and family for decades, and have lots of experience with pets of many kinds and personalities. I love caring for animals, making sure they're well attended and loved. I've had cats, dogs, and/or rodents for as long as I can remember, and have always really enjoyed interacting with animals. I'm currently between careers, so my schedule is quite flexible. I'm around during the daytime and evenings, and am available to check in on pets more than once a day, if needed. I'm happy to spend time inside or outside with pets, at their homes, or neighborhood walks. I can stay overnight, if needed, and/or am ready to check in on pets more than once in a sitting if they need extra attention.
“Sanela was wonderful. Came last minute and was very nice, friendly and most importantly, my dog loved her. Will definitely use again. This was my very first Rover experience and I was bit nervous, but it went better than I could have expected thanks to Sanela.”
“I am always happy to hire Geoffrey for a walk around the neighborhood! He makes sure to give my dog some extra pats and check his water while I'm at work and I love getting the photo updates too.”
“Kerri has been walking Zuko (mostly) daily for about a month and she has been wonderful! We have a flexible schedule and she is extremely responsive, Zuko loves her and has great fun on their walks. She is always prepared with extra poop bags and is always willing to refill his water or feed him lunch or give him a treat before leaving if ever I’ve requested it! If you need a regular walker in the area I’d definitely recommend her!”

“Awesome first walk today. My pup is a little timid and not used to having strangers in her space. Rebecca was incredibly patient with Penny and really focused on creating a bond with her which is so so important. By the end of the visit Penny was eating treats out of her hand, licking her face, and welcomed Rebecca’s cuddles. I couldn’t believe she was able to win Penny over so quickly. Couldn’t be happier!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Stoneham
Yesika has been the greatest dog walker! She is responsive and communicative and kind. When I dropped Achilles off for an overnight stay, he was sooooo excited to see her. I already had no doubts that she was a good sitter, and that confirmed it for me and made me feel even better about having her care for my boy!
Page has been great with my boys! Always flexible on timing and last minute bookings. She has dropped in to make sure they get a little enrichment during my long work days as well as taken them on walks together. Very communicative with any questions and what their status is during the visit/walk. Highly recommend!
Fernanda is the best dog walker! She treats our dog like she’s her own and is very communicative with us when she has Piper. We get plenty of pictures and updates while they’re together. She took the time to come meet Piper before she started walking her which put us at ease to see how they interacted together so well before walks! 10/10 would recommend

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Stoneham on Rover is $19.98 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 .

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 Stoneham. 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 Stoneham.

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 Stoneham. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
