About: I have genuine experience for 10+ years. I love meeting new pets and making them happy. Family Friends, Neighbors, etc. I’ve done it all! I’m currently working remote and have a very flexible schedule. Whenever you need me (even if it’s last minute) I’ll be there! I’ll make sure to play with the dog and run around with them. If that cat just wants to chill, that works for me!

Traci has been perfect for our girl. We are so grateful that she was able to take Cora for a walk on such short notice. She then helped create a plan for us as we only adopted Cora a week ago! We look forward to hopefully many more walks with Traci.

Jess is incredibly kind and patient with my dog. My dog is sometimes slow to warm and very shy. Jess took the time to let him adjust. She goes above and beyond. My dog is high energy and Jess made every effort to make sure he ran and sprinted to get his energy out. Would definitely hire again!

About: I worked with LastHopeK9 in fostering and taking care of dogs. I've pet sitted and walked dogs around my neighborhood many times. I've had my own dog who I trained for around 9 years. I'm an animal lover who cares about a dog's well-being and pays attention to their needs. I currently have a part-time internship, so I have plenty of time during the week! Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays I am available all day, as well as most weekends. I would make it a priority on those days to fulfill my duties. I am always respectful and diligent of what the client indicates me to do in their house and with their pet. I respect the owners rules and make sure to follow a routine for their pet, as well as communicate with the client about how it's going.

About: I am a registered nurse with a lifelong love of animals. I have always had pets since I was a little girl. I worked at an animal hospital throughout high school and college, I gained a lot of pet care experience there. I also worked on a farm growing up where I took care of horses, cats and dogs! I know how important it is to trust someone with your animals, as I have 2 kitties I care for very much! I am confident in handling all types of pet personalities and needs. I currently work 3 days per week not on a set schedule. I have 4 days off per week which is why I would love to do dog walking/sitting on those off days! I live in a dog friendly neighborhood in Watertown, MA. I love to walk around Fresh Pond, I also live near several dog parks! I can’t wait to meet your pup :)

About: Hi my name is Nick! I'm a proud dog dad to my baby girl Olivia and a big heart and admiration for dogs of all kinds. I've had the experience of both having and taking care of many dogs in my life, including Pugs, Labs, Great Danes, and mix breeds. My favorite dog activities are to go on walks and play fetch in parks with them. I try to be consistent with enforcing good behavior towards them, as well as making sure they're well taken care of within their environment. My typical routine involves going walks for about 30 minutes on average, going to the dog park to get some energy out, and checking to see if they have water and food in their bowls I'm usually available in the afternoons and evenings throughout most of week, mostly on weekends. My time periods are 30 minutes to an hour with dog walking for each visit. When taking care of dogs I make sure that they are well feed, that they're well comfortable at their home especially if the temperature is too hot or cold outside, and that everything is secure and well closed off so that they wouldn't run off from home.

About: I’ve been a lifelong pet owner and have cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and look after their pets while they were away. I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a calm environment, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m currently a graduate student with a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to provide attentive pet care throughout the week. My classes and work are structured, so I’m able to plan walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins consistently. I’m available most weekdays and weekends, and I enjoy spending time outdoors and staying active with dogs. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in both my home and a client’s home. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality and routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions. I also have experience with shy or anxious dogs and understand the importance of being patient, calm, and letting them warm up at their own pace. My goal is to create a low-stress environment where your pet feels secure and happy.

Other than the infrequent trip, I am available 7 days a week for pet care! I treat your home with the upmost respect, leaving as clean or cleaner than when I arrived. Additionally, I value your privacy and will maintain professionalism at all times.

About: As an active athlete, daily walks with my own dogs isn't just a chore for me, it’s a lifestyle. Whether your dog needs a structured, high-energy jog or a long walk, I have the stamina and dedication to keep them active, happy, and tired by the time they get home. Because I'm a student-athlete home for the summer working only part-time, my schedule is incredibly flexible. My days are anchored by structured morning and evening workouts, meaning your dog will always get fed ant the right time and high-energy walks exactly when they need them. Because I'm not working a rigid 9-to-5, I'm able to make your pup my top priority throughout the day. Handling multiple dogs at once is second nature to me. In my own home, I regularly manage walking my Wheaton terrier, Wire Fox Terrier, and Bernedoodle all at the same time. They each have completely different energy levels and walking paces, so I've mastered the mechanics of balancing multiple leashes, maintaining control, and ensuring every dog gets taken care of. I love matching whatever energy your dog brings to the table. If they are a high-energy pup who needs to burn off steam, I have the stamina to keep up with them. But if your dog is a little more low-key and chill like my Bernedoodle, I’m just as happy laying down on the couch, watching a good show, and giving them all the belly rubs they want!

Helena was wonderful with my older pooch. She sat with him and took him on a walk in the neighborhood to his favorite place, the mechanic's, where they gave him his usual cookie. Then she figured out a new game to keep him happy in the backyard: She would hide little pieces of kibble and let him sniff them out. I was 100% delighted with Helena's dog care, and will look forward to hiring her again soon!

Nicholas has walked my dog, Bebe, a few times, and he’s been great every time! He always accommodated my last minute requests, which I really appreciated. He’s also very thoughtful, for example, he towel dried Bebe after walking her in the rain. Bebe seems to really like him, and I’ll definitely be using him again in the future!

I cannot recommend Traci highly enough. From the very first day I met her, I was struck by her calm, grounded demeanor. She has a wonderful presence about her—confident, warm, and immediately reassuring. My puppy took to her right away, which is something I value tremendously. Since we began working together, I have been consistently impressed by Traci’s professionalism, organization, and communication. She is exceptionally reliable and proactive. She confirms schedules, communicates clearly, and often provides thoughtful updates and documentation that I never even thought to ask for—from extra photos of my puppy to screenshots confirming when she arrived and left my home. That level of self-imposed accountability speaks volumes about her character and work ethic. Most importantly, Traci has been incredibly patient and attentive with my puppy, who can be quite a handful. She is safety-conscious, observant, and genuinely invested in the well-being of both my dog and my home. On more than one occasion, she has noticed or communicated things that demonstrated just how seriously she takes her responsibilities. Before finding Traci, I unfortunately had a few disappointing—and at times concerning—experiences with other pet care providers. As a healthcare professional who works long shifts, one of my greatest worries after bringing home a puppy was ensuring she would be safe, cared for, and not spending long days feeling lonely or neglected while I was at work. Traci has completely put those concerns to rest. I leave for work knowing my puppy is in capable, caring hands, and that peace of mind is invaluable. She has also been remarkably flexible and accommodating whenever my schedule changes unexpectedly. Beyond being an excellent dog walker, she is simply a pleasure to work with and communicate with. She has a natural way with both animals and people, and it is obvious that she genuinely cares about the pets entrusted to her. I could not have hoped for a better person to help care for my puppy. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found her.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Waverley

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Waverley on Rover is $27.75 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 11,136 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Waverley. 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 Waverley. 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 Waverley.

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 Waverley. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
