About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life and truly love having them around. I do tend to spoil them, but I always follow the instructions you, the parent, provide. I have had senior dogs and puppies and always give them the extra care they need. We are a retired couple and always enjoy having a dog around us. We have plenty of time to play with pups, and give them lots of love. We have a fenced in backyard to play in, comfortable beds to sleep in. We won’t be taken in other family's dogs while yours is here.

“Lindsey did great with Ellie, our rescue dog. Our dog has separation anxiety and is very reluctant to leave the house with some she doesn’t know. Lindsey was very patient with Ellie and won her confidence. Lindsey didn’t give up on walking her and gave Ellie support and encouragement. We will definitely use Lindsey again. She is a dog lover❤️she arrived as promised, kept us well informed and is Excellent!!!”

About: Although I'm new to Rover, I'm not new to caring for pets. I've provided pet sitting and drop-in care for friends and friends of friends, giving me experience with dogs and cats of different personalities, routines, and energy levels. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. Owning my own dog has taught me the value of patience, enrichment, positive interactions, and paying attention to each dog's individual personality and needs. I know every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and what helps them feel comfortable and happy. I'm an active person who genuinely enjoys getting outside for walks and adventures, and I love making sure dogs have the opportunity to explore, sniff, and enjoy their time outside at their own pace. Whether your dog loves a longer adventure walk, a game of fetch, or simply some extra companionship, I'll make sure they get the attention and care they deserve. For cats and more relaxed pets, I'm just as happy spending quality time keeping them company, playing with their favorite toys, or providing a calm and comforting presence while you're away. My goal is simple: to provide dependable, compassionate care so you can leave knowing your pet is safe, happy, and treated like one of my own. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. Since the school year has begun, my availability is more structured as I return to teaching. It is more focused on providing weekend support and occasional weekdays during the school breaks. I will continue to update my schedule and communicate clearly to make sure I can provide reliable care for the pets I commit to. I enjoy being able to provide pets with attention, exercise, and companionship when their families need an extra hand. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member and your home, and I take that responsibility seriously. Before each visit or walk, I will take the time to learn your pet's routine, personality, and any specific needs or preferences. I believe every pet is different, and I want to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you're away. I understand that some dogs may be nervous, shy, or need extra patience when experiencing new people, places, or situations. I will always take the time to build trust, pay attention to their body language, and adjust my approach based on what helps them feel safe and confident. For walks, I focus on creating a safe and enjoyable experience by paying attention to your dog's energy level, surroundings, and comfort. Whether your dog enjoys an energetic adventure or a slower walk with plenty of time to sniff and explore, I will follow their pace and needs. During drop-in visits, I will treat your home with the same respect I would want for my own. I will follow your instructions carefully, keep your pet's routine consistent, and provide updates with photos and messages so you can feel confident knowing they are happy and cared for. My goal is to create a safe, positive experience for both you and your pet—giving you peace of mind while your furry friend enjoys some extra love and attention.

About: I grew up living with dogs. Since I was 10 years old I have helped family members with their dogs, as well as take care of my own. For the past 4 years I have worked with dogs of various sizes, ages, and personalities. During those 4 years I worked in a dog daycare and boarding facility while also doing previous dog sitting jobs. My senior dog has a heart murmur so she needs special care to live a healthy, happy life: my younger dog (who is 4 now) is deaf, so I trained him to understand sign language in order to communicate with him. He loves doing tricks and is an incredibly smart dog. I am available all days of the week for dog sitting, walking and overnight stays! I have two dogs of my own but they are low maintenance, making it convenient for me to do pet sitting for people who need it. I play with dogs who love to play and/or do activities that they love to do while they’re in my care for the day. That may include playing fetch, going for walks, or playing tug of war with a toy.

“My dog got a cut on her ear walking in the woods, and Brittanie responded perfectly. She reached out to me, we discussed what to do, and she waited for my sister to arrive. Turned out to be very minor, but I was so grateful she was extra cautious and communicative. I feel really comfortable with her caring for my Millie.”

About: I have always been a go-to to dog and cat sit for friends and family that needed to know their fur babies would be safe. Whether it was for a check-in or staying over an extended period, the animals would be first priority. I am a remote worker with a semi-flexible schedule that allows me to care for your pet at any hour. I can generally work around any schedule that your pet needs. Any specific care that your pet needs will be adhered to. I ensure that the pups will be under great supervision and kept entertained. Walks and anything else needed will be taken care of as well.

About: In my 30 years, I have always had at least one pet in my care. Growing up, I took care of dogs, goats, chickens, rabbits, degus and more. I have personal experience with "exotic" animals such as hamsters, rats, chinchillas, etc. I have a combined 7 years of experience with animal care in a professional setting, including work at a pet store, as an Animal Care technician for laboratory animals and as a receptionist and kennel/boarding assistant in a veterinary hospital. I am a true animal lover and I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy to care for your furry family. I am available several days a week for drop in visits for new and current clients. Drop ins include let outs, feedings, play time, medications, etc as needed. I am available for live in care to current clients only. There are days that I will not be able to be full time at your home.

About: Dogs have been the heartbeat of my life for as long as I can remember. From my childhood pup who lived to be 17, to my first adult dog who gave me 16 years of unforgettable adventure, I have deep experience caring for canines at every stage of life—from playful puppies to gentle seniors. Currently, I’m the proud parent of two incredible doodles, Macchiato and Noisette. They are well-socialized daycare veterans who absolutely love welcoming new friends into our pack! After a rewarding 25-year career as a hairstylist, I am slowly pivoting to include my passion for detail and customer care toward pet care services. I can’t wait to treat your pups like family! With advanced notice, my schedule is incredibly flexible. When your pups are staying with me, their comfort and safety are my top priorities—I ensure they are never left alone for more than 4 to 5 hours at any time and provide tailored care to each dogs needs. To make things as convenient as possible for you, I also offer pickup and drop-off services. I proudly service the Aquidneck Island and East Bay communities, including Newport, Middletown, Portsmouth, Bristol, and Tiverton. Your pups will be treated exactly like members of my own family. I live on a spacious half-acre of fully fenced yard, offering plenty of room for your dogs to stretch their legs, zoom around, or just relax in the sun ( new PUP DECK coming soon). As a dedicated dog parent myself, I completely understand how tough it can be to leave your fur babies with someone else. That is why I am highly receptive to your specific routines, preferences, and instructions. I pride myself on being a clear communicator and highly dependable because I know that when it comes to your pets, trust is absolutely everything.

About: Your pets aren't just animals. They're family, and that's exactly how I'll treat them! As a lifelong animal lover and experienced dog and cat mom, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your four-legged family members. I've spent years caring for pets of all personalities, from little lap dogs to big, lovable pups, and I bring that same patience, affection, and attention to every pet in my care. I'm dependable, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals. Whether we're enjoying a walk, exploring all those exciting smells, or simply sharing some extra love and attention, my goal is to make sure your pet feels happy, comfortable, and cared for. I understand that every pet has their own personality, preferences, and routine, and I take pride in getting to know what makes each one special. When your pet is with me, they'll be treated with the same love and care I give my own.

About: I've cared for dogs and cats since I was 13, and it is a large passion of mine. Countless family, friends and clients have trusted me to not only watch their pets, but care for them as my own. I am trustworthy, responsible, and most of all loving towards every animal I meet. I have a rescue hound dog of my own who is 13 years old, and I have cared for him since he was just a puppy. This has taught me how to care for puppies to senior dogs. I've worked with small dogs and large dogs alike. Additionally, I have plenty of experience with cats as well as I have spent many years taking care of my grandmother's cats. I have also spent many years nannying in positions where I have cared for both children and pets, which has taught me responsibility as well. I would love to take care of your pet and appreciate you trusting me with a part of your family! I'm currently in school to be an elementary teacher, so I have time to watch your pets when I am out of class! On Mondays and Wednesday's I am available in the evenings after 4 pm, Tuesday's and Thursdays I am available after 10 am, and I am free most Fridays and Saturdays all day! I would love to either do a one time visit, or reoccurring! I am very trustworthy and will treat your home and pets with respect and kindness. I understand that is hard to trust anyone with a pet we love so much, but I promise I will care for and keep your fur baby safe like I do my own!

“Bittersweet - Emma was super sweet and we wish her the best building her business. It wasn't a good fit for our family - she minimized feedback offered about dog care-related decision making (based in valid and evidence based concerns about safety). Immediately after the first walk and subsequent discussion, she declined to work with us further. We are bummed, because our pup connected with her quickly.”

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover, experienced dog caregiver, and proud single mom who turned my passion for dogs into a full-time career. Working from home allows me to provide personalized care and plenty of attention to every dog that stays with us. I’ve been dog sitting for over four years and have extensive experience with dogs of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. Although I grew up with cats, I fell in love with dogs as an adult and now share my home with a pack of Siberian Huskies. As a responsible breeder, I’m especially experienced with puppies and understand the patience, structure, and care they need. Guest dogs are welcomed as part of the family and have free roam of our home. We also have crates available for dogs who are crate-trained or whose owners prefer them to be crated. My Huskies have their own separate “doggy mansion” in the yard and rotate outdoor playtime, allowing guest dogs to enjoy a calm environment and individualized attention. My goal is to provide a safe, fun, and stress-free experience where every dog receives personalized care, lots of love, and plenty of exercise. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I strive to give every pet parent complete peace of mind while they’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s my full-time job. Because pet care is my career, I’m home throughout the day to provide consistent supervision, companionship, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. Your dog’s routine is my priority. I follow each pet’s individual schedule for meals, medications, exercise, and rest to help them feel comfortable and at home. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter environment, I make sure they receive personalized care every day. When your dog stays with us, they’re treated like part of the family and receive the dedicated care and attention they deserve. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a full-time pet care provider, I strive to create a calm, structured, and loving environment where every dog feels safe and at home. Dogs in my care are treated like family and are never left unattended for long periods. I take the time to get to know each dog’s personality, routine, and needs so I can provide individualized care. Meals are fed separately to prevent food guarding or accidental food swapping, and I closely monitor all playtime to ensure safe and positive interactions. Our home features a securely fenced yard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor play, potty breaks, and exercise throughout the day. For dogs who are crate-trained or need a quiet space to relax, I have crates available to accommodate their normal routine. Communication is important to me, so you’ll receive regular updates and photos during your dog’s stay, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is for every guest to leave happy, healthy, and excited to come back for their next visit.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Swansea

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Swansea is $17 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $21 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 3,298 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Swansea. 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 Swansea. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Swansea after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Swansea. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

walkers on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
