About: I've always had dogs in my life, primarily large breeds, and currently own three dogs and three cats. I helped raise a litter of seven puppies from birth to 12 weeks, giving me extensive experience with puppy care and development. I've also dog-sat for family friends many times and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care so both you and your pet can feel at ease. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I currently work freelance for a marketing agency from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive care, walks, playtime, and companionship. I also stream online and bartend one evening per week, but my schedule allows me to be available throughout the day and accommodate most pet care needs. I prioritize keeping pets on their normal routines and making sure they receive the attention and care they deserve. Since I only offer care in clients' homes, my goal is to keep your pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine in a familiar environment. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medication administration (if needed), playtime, and any special care requirements. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, preferences, and routine. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, active play, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I make sure they receive the attention and care they need while you're away. I also respect and care for your home as if it were my own, keeping things clean, secure, and providing regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're gone.

About: I do have experience of pet care because I myself have my own pet and love to see my puppy Casper meet new dogs. I have about 10 years with pet experience and every time I met a new pet I tend to have a great relationship with each pet. I love to take care of dogs because it gives me joy to notice that each pet is being treated with proper love and care. I tend to have a great time and learn new things about other pets based on their personalities. I enjoy going to dog parks and seeing other pets having a good time running around and meeting other dogs. I would love to pursue for my career of being a professional dog walker.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for pets and a genuine love for animals of all kinds. I am comfortable providing a wide range of care, including feeding, walking, grooming, administering basic care, cleaning habitats, monitoring health and behavior, and ensuring animals feel safe and comfortable. I am patient, dependable, and attentive to each animal's unique needs, and I am confident in applying my previous caregiving skills to provide compassionate, reliable care for animals of all sizes and temperaments. I’m currently self employed and working on a remote schedule that better suits my needs. I am available for care taking at most hours during a full time schedule. Having a dog and cats of my own I am very familiar with crate and potty training, cleaning litter boxes, feeding, comfort, overall training and care.

Hailey is a great find! She walked my puppy, Andy at 6:30 in the mornings. I needed to make scheduling changes a few times and she got back to me quickly and was very flexible. My puppy is in training and Hailey followed through on all of his training skills for me. Thank you!

I had a last-minute need for a dog walker and was lucky to find Sabrina. She arrived on time, took my dog on a nice, long walk, and even went above and beyond by putting my trash can back. Communication was excellent. Highly recommend!

Nic was absolutely great to work with and our two dogs loved him. He showed up on time, took them for great walks, and always left a nice little report with several pictures. Highly recommend Nic if you’re looking for a reliable dog walker and someone to do drop in visits.

About: Im comfortable working with friendly dogs of different ages, including puppies who need extra attention and older dogs who may need a slower, more gentle approach. Plus, my dog is very friendly and enjoys the company, which can help other dogs feel more comfortable and social. I've always loved being around animals, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. Whether it's walks, sticking to their normal routine, I'll treat your pet with the same love and attention I'd give my own. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, so I'll keep you updated with messages and photos while you're away. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for every step of the way. I care for pets in both my home and my client’s home, depending on the service. I make sure they have a safe, clean space, follow their feeding and walking routines, and give them plenty of attention. When I’m in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely to keep their pet comfortable and cared for.

About: I have had dogs since I was a kid. I owned my own Golden Retriever for the past 12 yrs. I sadly lost him recently. I have watched dogs for friends for many years. Need more time with animals these days:) Cats- as a dog lover first I never thought I was a “ cat person” well I am. Love them too. Currently not working :) taking a break. With some notice or little I am very very happy to be home watching your pet. Let me know I have a cozy , clean house with a lovely fenced yard. Just missing the pitter patter of paws ❤️I have references and am in the medical field. I don’t smoke or do drugs.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and truly love being around them. I’ve walked and cared for neighbors’ dogs for years and even volunteered at the SPCA throughout middle and high school, where I got experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments. I’m calm, patient, and attentive—especially with puppies who need a little extra guidance and senior dogs who need extra care. I treat every dog like they’re my own and always prioritize their comfort and happiness. I work full-time so my weekends are open and free! I can dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for. I may even be able to help after work hours for special occasions/requests. I always prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency when caring for pets. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and make sure each walk or visit is tailored to the dog’s needs and energy level. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like family. I also have my own transportation, so I’m able to drive to homes to let dogs out, take them for walks, and spend time playing or just keeping them company.

About: Ive taken care of dogs at a very young age considering Ive had them as pets. To me, animals are a part of your family who you may not always trust with just anyone. I guarantee to care, love, and have best forms of communication when welcoming your pets into my home. Im currently working a part/time as a medical assistant in milford. With weekends completely off, my weekly schedule varies but i do have an hour lunch which allows me to stop home. My lovely humble home has a fenced backyard and offers two parks & grass field I can walk them to for some exploring. I currently have no pets so all my focus will be on your pup. Im completely comfortable with being on furniture or snuggling with me. I consider myself a very disciplined human with day to day goals and routines, meaning I will respect all rules and accommodations to your pups food schedule, walking and Potty trainings.

Bri helped me out tremendously during recovery from surgery. She is a good communicator and kept me informed about any schedule changes. She was gentle and patient with my almost blind, almost deaf senior dog. And Bri is flexible, allowing me to add additional services at the last minute when I realized I had been overly optimistic about my recovery.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Stratford

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Stratford on Rover is $20.33 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 3,655 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Stratford. 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 Stratford. 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 Stratford.

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 Stratford. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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 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.
