About: I have a big love for animals and have spare time so want to help others and look after their loved animals and care for them. I look after my friends and families cats and dogs on a regular basis so have experience with different breeds and want to help others have the opportunity to go away on holiday or going to work and relax knowing their baby is getting a home from home experience in a relaxed environment. I work from home most days and if I need to go into the office I have a flexible timetable so would be out the house for no more than 4 hours but also happy to accommodate to your timings of each pet. I am also happy to take them out to places with me if this is something your pet is familiar with. I live in a house with a private fenced/brick wall garden. I have a park next to my house and multiple walks around my area with a mixture of fields, grass and pavement environments. I also have a car so am happy to take out with owners permission I also send photos and updates to the owners to let them know there babies are in safe hands

We had heather walk our dog while we were at work. It was easy to book and we got a reply straight away. Heather popped over later that day to meet bear. We had photos from their walk sent over and an update on how he was. She is someone that clearly cares about animals. :)

About: I've owned lots of different animals in my lifetime, but consistently dogs and cats. I cannot pass a dog in the street without stopping to say hello, or hoping I get approached for a quick cuddle! And when it comes to cats, I nearly cancelled my return flight from Turkey last year so that I could be surrounded by kittens forever! I am trustworthy, reliable and respectable. I work remotely and have all of the time to dedicate to providing your pets with genuine, loving care and attention. I can spend hours walking, running and playing, and working from home with my own hours means I can adapt my days to perfectly match the needs you and your companions have. I recently quit my full-time job to work for myself more, which has been great but very lonely. At the moment, I'm working from home and have all of the time for big walks, games and snuggles. I work remotely and have lots of flexibility to come and pet sit. I'm more than happy to have a pre-meeting so that you can make sure you and your bestie like me before any commitments are made :)

About: I have grown up surrounded by different animals from all sizes including horses, dogs, cats, donkeys to the smaller likes of hamsters, rabbits, guinea pigs and ferrets. I currently have a large greyhound called Velma who is more than happy sleeping the day away with the occasional cuddle. I understand not all dogs have the same needs and am adaptive in my approach. I currently work a shift pattern, meaning I am often available during the week and at odd times to help with your pet needs. I do not work overnight and so will be available for house sitting. For house sitting services, I will ensure I ask the correct questions from the home owners to be able to care for their pet to the best of my ability. I have great listening and observation skills to safely care for your additional family member!

About: Animals have been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember. I raised my beloved rescue dog from a 2-month-old puppy all the way to 14 years. In her final years, she became very ill, which gave me extensive, hands-on experience in specialized senior care and administering medical treatments, including oral tablets, liquid solutions, and eye drops. Throughout my life, I have also owned and cared for many cats.Beyond my own pets, family members, friends, and neighbors have regularly trusted me to sit, feed, and look after their dogs of various breeds and sizes. I am a very active person, so I am always excited for long walks and engaging playtime. I am also happy to help with essential grooming, such as brushing and safe nail trimming. Your pet will receive the highest level of responsibility, love, and dedicated care! I am currently not working, which means I have a completely flexible schedule and can dedicate all my free time to your pet. I am available at any time by prior arrangement, allowing me to provide constant attention, timely feeding, and long walks whenever your dog needs them. Safety and trust are my absolute priorities. I have plenty of space in my home and a secure, fenced garden where your dog can play safely. Since I currently do not have any pets of my own, your furry friend will receive 100% of my love, care, and undivided attention. Having raised a rescue dog for 14 years, I know exactly how to keep your pet happy, comfortable, and safe.

About: Me and my family always had dogs when I was growing up, I often have my dads 6 month old puppy and look after friends dogs! I love dogs and I really want a puppy but it isn't possible with my working hours. I want my own dog but with working full time it isn't doable. I currently work 4 days a week with Friday's off so can now do dog sitting Friday's too! I have a garden with a good walking route. Can crate the dogs if requested. It's a quiet street and safe neighbourhood with other neighbours having dogs. I have worked with kids for over 10 years so have lots of knowledge on health and safety plus lots of patience!

About: I have been living on an animal sanctuary since April 2024, where 4 dogs freely roam around with me and the fellow animal residents while I work. I love all animals and have experience with very many personalities from working and living on this farm, including stubborn and difficult ones! I have had dogs since I was 4 years old and I love to create trusting bonds with dogs and showering them with the affection they all deserve. I am currently looking for some smaller jobs to spend some extra time with animals, and my schedule can be worked around to suit your needs. I am open to looking after animals in their home environments where they are happy and comfortable, making sure they are at ease while their owners are away.

About: I have years of experience looking after pets of friends, my own, and through word of mouth I have house sat for many others. I have looked after and helped train dogs of varying ages including those with challenging behaviour. I have developed a good understanding of canine behaviour in this time and I ensure every dog in my care receives the attention, patience, and love they deserve. I love all animals whether they are furry, feathered, or scaly, and I understand they all come with their own unique personalities and needs. I will ensure your pet feels safe and loved in my care. *I am also DBS cleared and have my Canine First Aid certificate, for extra peace of mind.* I work just three days a week for a couple of hours cleaning, which means your dog will never be left alone for long periods. Outside of that, pet care is my main focus, so I’m able to provide plenty of time, attention, and companionship throughout the day. I maintain a flexible schedule to work around your dog’s needs and ensure your dog feels comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I have a large, fenced in garden, with a forest walk that lies out back. Perfect for little or large adventures. We have one other dog that has use of the garden but does not share the same living space. I can keep the dogs separate if needed or if your pup likes company I’m sure they will love our little girl.

Heather is absolutely fabulous, she visited for a meet and greet with us and instantly took to our dog Tilly. They went on their first walk together today, and It was also Tilly’s first time on the figure 8 harness, this didn’t phase Heather, I had walk updates and pictures, and Tilly came back happy and content. I would so recommend Heather.

FAQs for Dog Walking – Braintree

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Braintree on Rover is £17.25 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 2,368 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Braintree. Enter your postcode 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-to-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 Braintree. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighbourhood 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, poo and pee breaks, and distance travelled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Braintree.

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 dedicated customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement programme 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 must pass an identity verification before they can list their services. An identity verification confirms that the sitter is who they say they are based on their documents.

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 our 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.

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.

Yes, Rover is well-suited for last-minute bookings for Dog Walking. With 2,368 Walkers in Braintree, 44% respond to messages in under 5 minutes.

Many sitters keep their calendars updated in real time and you can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care in the next 24 hours, you can look for sitters with a 'calendar last updated' notice on their profiles.
