Priscilla is kind and bonded with my dog instantly. This is my first time using a service like this and I can't tell you what a relief it is to know my dog is loved by her as much as I do. Highly recommend.

About: I have several years of paid and volunteer experience with all animals, including dogs, cats, fish, chickens, rabbits, horses, and goats. Growing up, I had two dogs, one small and one medium. I also used to volunteer at a therapeutic horse-riding center for people with disabilities, where I groomed horses and cleaned their barns. I currently have two guinea pigs who are contained in cages, but are very curious, playful, and friendly with other animals. I'm an incoming Master's student who is currently working part-time this summer. I have a highly flexible schedule and short commute times, which gives me more time to care for your pets! My pricing is extremely flexible and I am open to negotiating. I have spacious front and back yards where your pet can roam. I also have a doggy gate to block off the upstairs of my house if necessary, but our downstairs and upstairs are very dog-proof from years of caring for our previous pets. I live in a 3-bedroom home, providing ample room for your pet to explore and wander inside if they prefer the indoors. I also have dog bowls, leashes, toys, and food, ready for use.

About: I grew up with as many as 5 cats and two dogs at a time. I am familiar with caring for most pets including rodents and fish. I work from home so taking a break to walk or feed pets is not an issue. There is even some extra time to give them some attention too! My dog has free roaming permission in the backyard and we also have a cage for large dogs available. For visiting dogs we walk them on a leash since they are not familiar with the area.

About: I've always loved and respected animals and I've always had pets. My mom always told me I needed to have a farm when I grew up because I would bring home all sorts of animals. Currently I have a pup named Shiloh. She is a border collie mix that I rescued. We love to go on walks, hikes and car rides. She loves to go visit Grandma, get treats at Petco, play fetch and snuggle. She is my love. I also have four adorable cats who let me live in their house in return for treats, cat toys and neck rubs. They allow Shiloh also and we live happily there. For years I have taken care of family, friend's and neighbor's pets while they are on vacation or working. I really enjoy it and now I would love to take care of your fur babies!❤

Rachael did a great job with my dog Harry today! He came home happy & tired so that's a good thing. He ate his dinner quite heartily too, ha, ha! I'm looking forward to having her come back again hopefully on a regular basis for walks & see if we can get some weight off Harry as he is overweight for his size right at this stage in life. Thanks so much Rachael!

About: When I was 10 I joined a dog training program through my school, that’s where my training experience began. I provide a premium, low-volume dog care experience for owners who want their dog to have more one-on-one attention in a calm home environment. Your dog won’t be just one of many in a crowded space. I keep my care more personal so each dog gets plenty of attention, supervision, and outdoor time. I have a big yard for dogs to enjoy, but my indoor space is smaller, so I am very intentional about keeping the number of dogs low. That means I can focus on your dog’s comfort, safety, and overall experience much more closely. This is a great fit for dogs who do better with a quieter setting and for owners who value quality of care over high-volume boarding or daycare. I generally only take one to a few dogs at a time unless they are from the same household. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs. I took care of my childhood dog for 17 years of her long, beautiful life. I have experience working with small senior dogs specifically and I know all the little things that they appreciate. I also have experience with large dogs and can handle very big strong dogs. I also love hiking with dogs so if you have an energetic dog you need to burn off energy I am your guy. I have an acre yard with a fenced in front yard in a nice area. Any dog that boards with me would be treated like my own dog and let out very frequently to go to the bathroom and play outside. I would always remain home with your dog. Thank you for considering me and I hope to meet your pet soon! I’m currently a fully remote student so I am fully available. If I board a pet I will be with them full time to make sure they receive the care they deserve. I have a fenced in front yard, and a good amount of unfenced land in the back. My dog is very friendly and would keep your pet great company. He loves dogs and cats. I can easily crate your dog if needed, but would love to give your dog the pet experience and treat them like my own. I live in a nice are and have great access to the woods nearby as well.

James was absolutely wonderful with my three dogs! He's the first walker who managed to bring all three of them to the door together, calmly and in control. That's no small feat! On top of that, he handled an unexpected and upsetting situation with my neighbor with complete composure and professionalism. I was truly impressed. My dogs were happy and well cared for; I'm looking forward to booking him again. Highly recommend James to anyone, especially multi-dog households!

About: I’ve cared for many different animals throughout my life, including mammals, birds, reptiles/amphibians, exotics, farm animals, and wildlife. I’ve cared for pets of friends and family. I have experience with overnight sitting in the pet’s home. I also have experience caring for senior and special needs animals. I spent 6 months as a volunteer at a vet clinic assisting with exams and surgical procedures, and I am currently exploring career paths in animal sciences and wildlife rehabilitation. I have lots of availability to care for your fur babies! I work part-time as a waitress while exploring different careers in the field of animal behavior and sciences. I have the flexibility to accommodate to your schedule and needs. I can be available on most weekends and holidays. I also accept same-day bookings. I prefer to care for animals in their own home where they feel most comfortable. As well as walking in areas they are familiar with. I always make sure to maintain pet safety in the home such as keeping doors/windows/gates shut and keeping hazardous items and toxic plants out of reach or locked away.

Steve was fantastic with my three dogs! His calm, easygoing energy made a noticeable difference right away. One of my dogs, Dolly, typically needs some time to warm up to new people but almost immediately she was walking happy and relaxed. This honestly blew me away. It's clear Steve has a natural way with dogs. I'd highly recommend him, especially if you have a pup that can be a little hesitant with strangers. We'll definitely be booking again!

About: I have over 30 years working with dogs ranging from Alaskan Malamutes to Golden Retrievers and a few cats in between, and I love them all. I currently volunteer at ARF (American Rescue Foundation). Any animal under my care will be treated like my own at all times. I work for myself part-time and have plenty of time to care for animals. The days I work my primary job are random so please check my calendar or message me. My dogs get a healthy balance of outdoor and indoor time. I don’t like to crate animals unless absolutely necessary. Rewards are given more with love and affection and less with tasty treats. Absolutely no table food unless it is prepared specifically for our 4 legged friends. Overall just try to keep them happy without spoiling them too much:)

About: I live on a farm with lots of animals and have been caring for them for as long as I can remember. I love both cats and dogs of every age — from tiny puppies to gentle seniors — and I make sure each pet gets the care and attention they need. Your pet will enjoy plenty of room to run, play, and explore, but they will always be under my watchful eye. Safety and comfort come first here. The farm is a calm, natural environment where animals feel relaxed, loved, and at home. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member and make sure they have a happy, safe, and fun stay! 🐾 I’m a part-time student and I live at home, which means I have a very flexible schedule. My classes are spaced out, so I’m home throughout the day. Because of that, I’m able to give pets consistent attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, and supervision. Taking care of animals is already part of my everyday life on the farm, so your pet naturally fits into my routine. They’ll never be left alone for long periods — I’m either outside with the animals, studying at home, or right nearby where I can keep a close, watchful eye on them. I care for pets in a calm farm environment with plenty of safe outdoor space to explore and play. Pets stay inside our home with me and are treated like part of the family — no kennels unless requested. I keep a close, watchful eye on them at all times, whether we’re inside relaxing or outside getting exercise. We follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible: meal times, walks, play style, treats, and any special needs. I’m used to caring for both high-energy pets and slower senior animals, and I adjust activities to what makes your pet feel happy and secure.

Elizabeth was wonderful with Fenway. She is so knowledgeable with dogs of all breeds. She checked in with us multiple times and sent some great pictures of Fenway on his walks. She took great care of him and would highly recommend her and would use her again im the future.

Madeline was an absolute gift to our family over the holidays. Leaving my elderly dogs is never easy, especially with their medications and special routines, but she handled everything with such care, attention, and professionalism that I was able to relax and truly enjoy time away. She was incredibly thorough with their medications, made sure their meals were prepared exactly as needed, and took such thoughtful care with their walks and daily needs. It was clear she treated them like her own, checking in consistently and keeping me reassured every step of the way. I would recommend Madeline without hesitation to anyone especially those with senior pets or animals who need extra love and attention. She is reliable, compassionate, and truly exceptional at what she does.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Thomaston

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Thomaston on Rover is $21.4 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 2,763 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Thomaston. 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 Thomaston. 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 Thomaston.

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 Thomaston. On Rover:

  • 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
