About: I’ve cared for animals since I was a kid. Dogs, cats, lizards, hamsters, chickens— you name it! I love animals and would love to meet yours. I am happy to help out whenever I can— I do seasonal work so I am in between jobs right now and my schedule is flexible. Just like with humans, I believe in the importance of animals getting enough mental stimulation and physical exercise to create happiness, healthiness, and reduce anxiety!

About: I have taken care of my family's and friend's dogs for over 10 years, working with both large and small dogs of all age ranges. I have taken care of energetic dogs that need lots of walks and playtime, and also dogs that need less activity but lots of love while their parents are out of town. Additionally, I have experience giving small and large dogs oral medication. I am currently working part-time and a student on summer break applying to physician assistant programs so I have a very flexible schedule and I can dedicate as much time as needed to taking care of your pet. While watching your pet in your home I will make sure we stick to the areas designated to where the pet is allowed and make sure to keep an eye on them in whatever room or outdoor space they are in.

About: My kids (13-19) and I can offer a safe, happy home, companionship and plenty of play time to your furry friend(s) while you're away! Being semi-retired allows me to dedicate more time to caring for pets. I frequently assist friends and family with pet care when they travel. My life basically revolves around my 3 teenagers, volunteering and bike riding when possible. Your pet will always have company in our home, with plenty of walks and playtime. My children, especially my daughters, love and enjoy their companionship.

About: I’m an animal lover at heart and have taken care of my own pets as well as those of friends, neighbors, and others by word of mouth. I welcome dogs of all ages and sizes to my home or will visit yours giving them plenty of attention, love, and care. I will happily follow your directions to ensure routine is minimally disrupted. I’m familiar with geriatric dogs and will administer medications as instructed. My experience is vast as I have loved and cared for all sorts of animals to include my own since I was ten. I am currently at home full-time and will dedicate my attention to your fur-baby. I have a fenced in backyard that is large enough for a good romp or ball catch. I enjoy walks/hikes and being outdoors so if your dog requires long walks, I’m game. I also like snuggling up on the couch so if your dog needs more quiet time, that’s very much an option. Your dog or dogs must be house trained. I can crate if requested or alternatively, he/she will have access to my home as if it was his/her own. I’m also willing to come to your home for multiple walks and feedings throughout the day.

As usual, Connor went above and beyond. My dog had vomited on one of the days he came to walk him. I had not asked him to clean up messes, and I never would have expected him to. But he did it without hesitation or complaint, simply letting me know it happened. Connor is always very responsive, respectful, & simply easy to work with, and Mac just loves him and his dog, Finley.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Waterford

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Waterford is $24 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $24 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 November 2026, there are 5,845 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Waterford. 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 Waterford. 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 a map of the walking route, 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 Waterford 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 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 Waterford. On Rover:

  • 86% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 Meet & Greet.

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
