“Sunny is absolutely wonderful with Bella! She’s reliable, caring, and always takes the time to send me updates and photos from their visits. It’s clear that Bella adores spending time with her, and I feel so comfortable knowing she’s in such good hands.”

“I had Maliyah and Gabriel take care of my dog for four days (three walks a day), and honestly, they were just really solid people. They were always on time, kept everything consistent, and you could tell they weren’t just rushing through it. My dog can be a little particular with new people, but she clicked with them right away, which says a lot. Every time they came by, she seemed genuinely excited to see them. They made sure she was fed on time, took her on actual walks (not just quick bathroom breaks), and even stuck around a little longer to spend time with her. That part meant a lot to me, it didn’t feel like they were just checking a box. Overall, it just felt easy and stress-free knowing she was in good hands. I’d 100% reach out to Maliyah and Gabriel again.”

About: I had dogs of my own for a few years and loved them whole heartedly. I also watched dogs daily in one of my home health cases. I am capable of feeding, playing, walking and taking them outside regularly. If you have pets with special or silly needs, I can absolutely meet those as well! I am a college student. I will have plenty of time to play with and walk your animals in between classes and studying. Some fresh air and animal time will be a nice break for me. In my client's home, I respect any rules that they have with their pet (ie. If they are not allowed on the couch or in certain areas, food restrictions, etc.). I will make sure to be outside with them watching them, just in case. I will follow feeding schedules and make sure they always have water. I will play with them and brush them if needed.

About: Hi! I’m a dependable and caring animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets. While I have primarily pet sat for family and friends, I’ve cared for dogs and cats of different ages, personalities, and needs. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, administering lots of love and attention, or sticking to your pet’s routine, I’ll treat your furry family member like they’re my own. I’m also a proud pet parent to two cats and a German Shepherd, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I know every animal is unique, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away. I’m reliable, responsible, and committed to providing updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re gone. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and giving them the same love and care I give my own! I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Since I set my own hours, I can easily adjust my day for walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays. I enjoy getting out of the house and spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to. Your pet will receive dependable care, plenty of attention, and a schedule tailored to their routine whenever possible. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home. I provide a safe, calm, and caring environment where pets can feel comfortable and loved. As a pet owner myself, I know every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. I prioritize safety, supervision, and making sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and care while you’re away.
About: I have been taking care of animals for about 14 years. I have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, reptiles and so much more. I have experience with elderly dogs. I’ve had to give oral medication to my senior dog on a daily basis and I have knowledge of giving cats oral medication as well. I know how to potty train puppies if needed as well. I am very reliable, as well as very caring. I try to make your animal feel comfortable in a situation they might not understand. If needed I can bathe your animal. I am a first-semester nursing student at Pitt Community College, so my school schedule can vary throughout the week. Most days, I am in class for about 3 hours, while some days may include 5–8 hours of school, lab, or clinicals. This semester, my regular class schedule is typically Monday–Wednesday from 9 AM–12 PM with Lab typically on Thursday's or Fridays from 9AM-2Pm. My clinical schedule has not been assigned yet, so I may have clinicals on a Thursday, Friday, or Saturday. I will always maintain open, honest communication about my schedule and availability so pet parents can feel confident their fur babies are receiving the care and attention they need. When I’m not at school, I have plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and overnight care. Whether we’re going for a walk, playing at home, or simply relaxing together, I love spending quality time with my furry clients. And when I need to study, your pets often become my favorite study buddies! I’m happy to work with pet parents to find a schedule that fits both their needs and my school schedule. When I’m caring for your pets, their safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I’m very attentive to body language and behavior, and I take the time to get to know each pet’s individual personality and needs. Whether they’re feeling nervous, anxious, unsure, excited, playful, or curious, I adjust my approach to help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Communication is very important to me. I always tell my clients, “Please don’t feel obligated to respond!” because I tend to send a lot of pictures and videos. I want you to be able to look at your phone at any point and know exactly what your baby and I are up to. I’ll include updates throughout the day, such as feedings, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and anything else important, so you can see how their day is going. Most importantly, I want you to be able to see that your baby is not only safe, but genuinely loved and cared for while they’re with me. If I’m house sitting, I treat your home with the same respect and care that I would my own. I’m mindful of your home, belongings, routines, and any instructions you leave for me. If anything unexpected comes up while you’re away, I will communicate with you promptly so you’re always informed. My goal is for you to feel comfortable and confident while you’re away, knowing that your pets are in good hands and that you’ll have plenty of pictures and videos to make you feel like you’re still a part of their day!

About: I’ve had a love for animals for as long as I can remember! Growing up, caring for our animals was always one of my favorite chores, and my family currently has a pack of 8 dogs (can't all fit in my apartment lol). I started caring for animals outside of my own family when I was 10 and have experience with everything from dogs and cats to hermit crabs, leopard geckos, bunnies, and guinea pigs. I currently work as a therapist and am exploring getting a therapy dog of my own, so animals have always been an important part of my life. I truly believe pets bring so much joy, comfort, and value to our lives, and I would love the opportunity to give your pets the same love and attention they deserve! I am currently a therapist, so my schedule is flexible and can vary quite a bit. Pet care is the perfect way to spend my time between sessions! I currently do not have another fur-baby yet, so your pet would receive all of the love and attention. I am also outside frequently, and live in a very pet-friendly area, so there would be plenty of space for your pet to run around.
About: Hey everyone! My name is Jess! I am a grad student and looking for some work. I have been around dogs my whole life and I'm quick to befriend them. One of my first memories is actually getting my childhood dog. I've been taking care of my current dog for the last 3 years and I love her tremendously. I trained her completely and she is well behaved and friendly which I contribute to my background in applied behavioral analysis (ABA). I have experience caring for my friends' and neighbors' pets when they've been away. I ensure that they said and get the attention they deserve via walks, playtime, and some quality time with pets based on what they like. Animals have boundaries too and I like to ensure I respect them. Please reach out if you have any questions at all and I would love to care for your fur babies! I'm a graduate student work part-time so I have a good deal of flexibility. I am unavailable MWF 9am-1pm and T/TH 2pm-5pm. Beyond that, I am happy to work within our schedules to take care of your furry friends! Ultimately, I want to uphold what you would normally do to care for your pet. I know from my own experience my dog is very set in her routines and I wouldn't want to disturb that for your pets. If we have any outside time I am very attentive of surrounding and ensuring safety. I also make sure the pets don't get into trouble in the side by getting into anything laying around. I'm very used to taking dogs on walks, playing in the backyard, playing with toys in the house, and just chilling with pets and giving them some attention and some good head scratches!
“We’ve always relied on friends and family to care for our dog, so trusting someone new was a big step for us. Bonnie exceeded every expectation. I left her a detailed list of instructions, and she followed every one with great care and attention to detail. She was punctual, kind, responsive, and it was obvious from the start how much she genuinely loves animals. Throughout the entire experience, we felt completely at ease knowing our dog was in such capable and caring hands. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, compassionate, and will treat your pet like one of their own, I can’t recommend Bonnie highly enough. She was absolutely wonderful, and we will definitely be using her again.”

About: Animals truly are a man’s best friend. They offer a kind of companionship and loyalty that’s hard to match—even with people. That bond between pet and owner is what motivates me to provide the best possible care for your furry loved one. I’m 21 years old and have had the joy of owning a golden retriever, a black lab, and three cats. As a seasoned pet sitter, I’ve cared for a wide range of breeds—including mixed breeds (husky, lab, Akita), Belgian Malinois, pit bulls, and more—ranging from playful puppies to slobbery seniors. I’m always excited to meet new breeds and personalities! I know leaving your pet behind is never easy, so my goal is to give every owner total peace of mind. You can feel confident that your pet will be safe, loved, and treated like family while you’re away. I am a nursing student at ECU looking to spend some of my free time hanging with your pets!! When not here at school or pet sitting I work as a Student Nurse in a Neuro-Trauma ICU Unit at the University of Maryland Medical Systems Shock Trauma, as well as a Shift Supervisor at Chick-fil A. Here at school, I enjoy serving at and attending church, coffee dates, working out, long walks on the Greenway and fruitful time with friends!! I’m happy to fit any and every pet into my daily and weekly routine🤗 Your home is your space, I am just the guest so I can promise respect when I am visiting to take care of your pet. I’m happy to follow all rules and do my part to leave your space better than I found it. I am very reliable and answer my phone that way you’re able to have constant contact with me and I can accommodate your requests whether it’s taking pics with your pup or making sure the house is locked up.

About: I’ve had a cat for as long as I can remember. I frequently watch my sister’s cats as needed while taking care of my own. I currently only work part-time, so I will have plenty of time to take care of your pets each week as needed for your schedule! I will be an attentive pet sitter for your pet and make sure all of their needs are taken care of and that they are enjoying themselves!
About: Hello! My name is Brooke! I’ve always grown up with dogs and cats. I currently have four dogs who get along well with all animals. I take special care of all dogs and cats I watch as they are my own. They will be loved and provided a happy environment when I am around. I love taking dogs on walks and I love playing so they will always get the proper exercise. Any strict rules that you may have will be followed to ensure that there is no discrepancies. I think caring for fur babies is just as important as caring for human babies and that’s the way that it always should be. I have always loved pet sitting for neighbors and family members and would love to take care of your babies! I am able to take care of your animals in my home, walk them when I’m out of work and visit as needed if you are away. I am open to house sitting for animals if that works better for you! I’m happy to follow any type of special restrictions/rules that you may have for your babies! I am available to pet sit Thursday-Sundays. I set my own schedule Mon-Wed so I have a lot of flexibility outside of Thursday-Sunday to ensure that I am meeting the needs of you and your pet. my yard is fenced in and quite big. i am always outside with your pets when they are out there and i ensure they get lots of time to play and explore both indoors and outdoors.
About: I’ve owned Labrador Retrievers and have experience caring for a variety of pets through pet sitting, including dogs, cats, and other animals. I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, routines, and providing attentive, reliable care. I am student in college with flexible hours. I am free nearly every day and I am able to commute and prove quality care to all pets. I am extremely responsible and reliable. I take animals out right away and refill water and necessities. I’d love to exercise your animal and play with them until they are fully cared for and loved.

I truly can’t recommend her enough! Skye is my whole world, so trusting someone else to care for her is never easy, but she exceeded every expectation. She was so kind, attentive, and treated Skye like she was one of her own. Her communication was amazing from start to finish. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my baby was happy, safe, and loved. It was obvious how much she genuinely cares about the pets she watches. I’m so grateful we found her, and I’m honestly so sad we’re moving because I know Skye is going to miss her just as much as I will. If you’re looking for someone who will love your pet like family and make you feel completely at ease while you’re away, she’s the one. Thank you for taking such incredible care of my girl—we’ll always be grateful! ❤️

Sunny took good care of my older dog and endured that she took her pills with treats, even when it took several tries. I had a specific concern involving my dog and she kept me updated with detailed Rover cards. I was able to relax on my vacation without any worries.

Maddie was great in being responsive on short-notice and taking my dog for walks in hours when it was still dark outside. She followed the feeding directions and medicine administration that I had set out. Reasonably flexible and made changes due to weather without a problem.

Caitlin did an amazing job with our golden retriever. She was prompt, communicated in a timely manner, and our dog had a great time. It definitely gave us peace of mind, knowing someone who actually cared for animals was caring for hours. We highly recommend her to others.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Stratford on Rover is $19.98 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 290 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 sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
