Jennifer has been so great with my anxious dog Cambria. She accommodated my request for a few meetings with all of us together so Cambria would be more comfortable when Jennifer came to our house for care. Cambria had her first solo visit yesterday and Jennifer sent me pictures which was wonderful to receive and eased my mind. I would recommend Jennifer to everyone who is a little nervous about leaving their dog, she is so kind and compassionate and made my anxious dog feel at ease.

Kris is the best. She's always going above and beyond for Creedence. Knowing she's there for my pup, as particular as he can be, really puts my mind at ease when I work long days.

Thanks for spending the time with Jenny walking her and letting her interact with the kids. That socialization is so important and also wears her out. She does love a car ride!

Rachel was excellent! I needed a pet sitter last-minute (on a holiday no less!) and she came to the rescue. Rachel was very responsive, punctual and my dogs were smiling in all the photos so I think things went well!

Libby is the best! She took my dog Wilfred on some great walks and was very responsible and kind. I appreciate that she also looked out to make sure Wilfred didn’t have any ticks on him after the walks as we live near the woods. Thank you, Libby!

Susan has been taking such care with my English Bulldog, George, when she takes him on walks. It has been a huge relief to have a responsible, caring person walking my dog while I am away from home for extended time.

About: My experience includes working with horses, donkeys, sheep, chickens, fish, reptiles, birds and more. I have my own dog Paul, and I've owned dogs and cats in the past as well. My most recent certification is in wildife rehabilitation, and I work part-time as an educator at an aquarium. I surround myself with animals and I hope to do so for the rest of my life. I work on Sundays and Mondays, volunteer on Thursdays, and may be called in on other days. I am responsible for my own animals at home as well. As long as I have time to plan for animal care for others, I will make that care a priority. Clearly written instructions on specific care for your animals is appreciated, but I can use my knowledge and experience to make the right calls if anything comes up.

About: I’ve taken care of friends and family’s furry friends for the last 15 years. They have relied on me to walk, feed, and take care of their pets often. Until recently, I had my own senior dog and had taken care of puppies, adults, seniors, and even dogs with disabilities. I currently work part time and am able to fit in walks or drop in visits around my regular daily schedule. I usually only know my schedule two weeks in advance. I am not able to take care of your pets in my home but am happy and able to keep them comfortable in their own space!

About: Born and raised in a family of passionate pet sitters, I've honed my skills in dog sitting from an early age. With a background of caring for Newfoundlands, cats, and my own furry friend, I bring a wealth of experience and genuine love for animals to every pet sitting assignment. From leisurely strolls to cozy cuddle sessions, I prioritize the happiness and well-being of every dog in my care. I have a flexible schedule, especially during the summer when I’m off from teaching and available full-time for pet care. During the school year, I’m available mornings, midafternoons, evenings, and weekends, allowing me to provide dependable and consistent care whenever needed. As a pet sitter, I prioritize creating a comfortable and safe environment for the animals in my care. I ensure they receive personalized attention and follow any specific instructions provided by the client regarding feeding schedules, medication, exercise routines, and any other special needs. I maintain open communication with the client, providing regular updates and photos to offer peace of mind while they're away. Additionally, I'm attentive to the home's security and cleanliness, respecting the client's space as if it were my own.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have owned dogs, cats, a horse, rabbits, birds, rodents and reptiles. I currently have two cats and have experience caring for pets with different personalities, needs and routines.  I offer walks, drop ins, and overnight care for both dogs and cats. I’m flexible whether your dog (or cat) wants a long or short walk, playtime, or just someone to keep them company. I pet sit outside of Rover and am happy to provide local references. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I always provide frequent updates, photos, and videos. I work full-time in Guilford during the week, but I’m available before and after work, on weekends, and for overnight house sitting. My Rover calendar is set to weekends only, but I can often accommodate weekday requests as well depending on location and timing. I know it’s important to trust someone with your pets and in your home. I follow instructions closely, help keep routines consistent, and keep your pet safe and comfortable. I’m happy to provide references and send frequent updates, photos, and videos.

About: I’m a 41 year old professional who loves animals. I have a 4 year old cat of my own and have always wanted a puppy as a child. Animals are loving and calming to me. I help care for them they help me. I will dog walk which keeps them happy and me active. I will drop in on cats and dogs to feed play with and help go to the bathroom. If it’s the right fit for your family and pup I would stay 1 night a week and definitely weekends overnight while people are away or traveling. I am an open communicator, reliable, respectful, trustworthy professional. Please get to know me so I can get to know you and your animal has the best experience possible. I currently have lots of availability and I would be my pleasure to walk and check in for your pups and cats several times a week. I have a yard on a dead end street, a big basement and am very close to Wilcox Park, ready for long walks in great neighborhood with lots to explore.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Stonington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Stonington on Rover is $22.2 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 .

As of August 2026, there are 823 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Stonington. 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 Stonington. 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 Stonington.

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 Stonington. On Rover:

  • 96% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 98% 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.
