About: Notice: I am reestablishing my household- I am in process of installing a 6’ fence around the large grassy yard. I understand the importance of a truly loving, safe, and "like family" care experience. Over the past twenty years, I have house-sat family and friends' dogs as well - in their home and mine, all sizes of dogs. Food and break schedules will be honored to help your dog best. I have raised and successfully trained a loving high maintenance Weimaraner. She is 7 years old now and loves other dogs. I'm ready to give your fur baby love and attention to ease their anxiety with your absence. I'm available most weekdays. I work from home and am able to be present and provide active play. I encourage naps with appropriate play breaks to help ease any anxiety. I limit errands to days and times without dog guests though if staying more than a week, I’ll limit time away to not more than two hours. I have a large grassy yard I am working to enclose with a 6’ fence that should be completed by fall 2026. This free range yard surrounds the house. I currently take my girl for hour walks in the morning and after dinner. We'll all walk together as possible. You'll tell me your pet's "I gotta go" cues (and we keep a bell by the door also). Our home is non-smoking and pets are welcome on the furniture and beds. They are bathed* if get too dirty from play. Food from the dinner table is forbidden to pets. I'm used to taking time to prepare healthy food for my 🐾 girl - so special dietary needs and separate feeding spaces is acceptable for yours. Our entrance has a three step climb and the house has a combo of wood and carpeted floors. *I am a shoes off household, so will wipe dog paws at entrance -in your house or mine.
About: I’ve owned dogs most of my life and raised two wonderful lab puppies. I’ve cared for friend’s and family’s animals and have a calm patient approach to animal care. I’ve even had hamsters and chickens. I’m currently establishing a homestead with my two cats and ten chickens and working part time. I’m looking forward to growing my animal flock further in the next few years. Safety is my first priority so I make sure that I understand your animal’s needs and tendencies before coming in or out. Once I’m sure we are safe then it’s time to have fun in whatever way your pet likes. Some want a comfy snuggle and some need to work off some energy. I’m there for them.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Wakefield on Rover is $43.29 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 9 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Wakefield. 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 Wakefield. 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 Wakefield.

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.
