About: I have experience caring for dogs in shelter, daycare, and boarding environments. I've trained and fostered many shelter dogs from puppies to senior dogs. I'm a college student and love spending any time with dogs! I'm a student with availability in the afternoons and evenings. My schedule is fairly flexible on weekdays, and I have set times on weekends available. I make sure to follow each dog's routine and treat every dog as an individual. Your pet's safety and comfort always come first. I enjoy sending updates and photos.
About: I've had dogs my entire life and have been taking care of others' pets for the past 10 years. I have experience dog and house-sitting, dog walking, and even coming over to just help some puppy energy out. I am a college student away from home looking to be both helpful in my community and to spend quality time with dogs! I am currently a student so I can fit pet care in around my classes. I typically have one midday class a day and have flexible free-time outside of classes. I have time in mornings and afternoons to come check on your pups. I know each dog and home is different. I will take time to note any and all instructions and boundaries my client may have and take them seriously. I know our pets are family and deeply valuable. I will treat each home and pup with care and respect.
About: I’m not just a dog lover—I’m a proud dog mom of 9 years! I know how much your pup means to you because I feel the same way about mine. I bring the same care, attention, and love to every walk and drop-in as I do with my own dog, Dobby. I currently have a hybrid work schedule and work from home Mondays and Fridays. So Mondays and Fridays are pretty open. Tuesdays and Thursdays I would be available after 6pm so please feel free to message me if interested. Weekends I am available! When I drop in to care for your pet, I treat your home and your furry friend with the same respect and love I give my own. I always follow your care instructions closely—whether that’s feeding, potty breaks, playtime, or medication. I keep things calm and comforting for your pup, so they feel safe and happy.
“I am always happy to hire Geoffrey for a walk around the neighborhood! He makes sure to give my dog some extra pats and check his water while I'm at work and I love getting the photo updates too.”
“We were very happy to find Wendy to walk our dog when we traveled. She was reliable and very communicative. I would highly recommend her and we will definitely use her again.”
“Barbara absolutely adored walking our Maggie. She was extremely responsible and took great care of Maggie, our tiny 6 pound dog. We loved her caring and attentive nature!! Look forward to using her again when we can!”
“Kylie is great! She’s responsive, punctual, dependable and very personable. Most importantly, Samara loves her! I highly recommend Kylie and will be requesting her for additional walks.”
“Rachael does dog walking for us and our dog gets very excited to see her. Rachael is responsible and her communication is great — she lets us know when she arrives, when she leaves and sends photos and a description of the walk. We highly recommend Rachael!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and caring for them has always been one of my biggest passions! I’ve grown up with and fostered cats, dog sat and walked for a varied clientele and spent years learning about animal care and behaviour through both personal and professional experiences. I have a bachelor’s degree in Environmental Science from Skidmore College and an MSc in Wild Animal Biology from the Royal Veterinary College and London Zoo, where I studied animal behaviour, welfare, and health. I’ve also gained hands-on experience working with animals at several zoos, including London Zoo and the Saint Louis Zoo. Growing up, I attended Cub Creek Science Camp, an animal-focused camp where I later returned as an ASIT (Animal Specialist in Training), gaining further experience caring for animals and learning about their individual needs. My background has taught me how important it is to understand each animal’s unique personality, behaviour, and comfort levels. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and independent, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care! I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine, whether that means morning or evening visits, feeding times, playtime, or simply keeping them company while you’re away. I know how important consistency is for animals, so I’ll always do my best to maintain the schedule they’re familiar with. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and wellbeing will always be my top priorities! With my background in animal behaviour and welfare, I’m particularly attentive to animals’ body language and any signs of stress or discomfort. I understand how important familiar surroundings and routines can be, especially for cats, so I’ll always respect your pet’s boundaries and follow your care instructions closely. I’ll also make sure their environment stays clean, safe, and comfortable, and I’m happy to send regular photos and updates so you know how they’re doing!
About: Hi! I am excited to meet your pets! I have had animals my whole life and have a special loving bond with all animals! I have done pet sitting and work in shelters for a number of years. Pet care is my daily responsibilities with my own pets at home. I volunteer at shelters but would love to make your pets part of my day! I am very knowledgeable about animal behavior and animal needs. I understand the importance of understanding each animal and their needs! I approach each animal slowly and calmly to help comfort them as we get to know each other.
“Royce is wonderful with Baz. She genuinely enjoys the time she spends with him and cares about him. She’s also very helpful and accommodating with schedule changes and special requests.”
“Sarah is hands down the best choice for dog walking! Sarah has made sure that my dog has taken her medication on days she spits it out in her bowl, always makes sure she has water, and is cognizant of how much a dog can handle in weather extremes. She sends detailed updates that I look forward to every day, and with some pretty sweet pics too! I can’t say enough good things about Sarah. Professional, reliable, consistent, and a true dog lover. She lets my dog set the pace of the walk and leaves time for lots of sniffs and rolling in the grass, evidence of a happy dog. If you’re looking for a dog walker you can trust in your home and with your pets, look no further!”
About: Hi all! I'm 33 years old and will take very good care of your pets! In University I walked dogs for 3 years and would house sit here and there when the opportunity came up. My regular walkers in University where 2 twin black labs who loved to run and swim and a Bulldog who prefered to trot beside me. In my personal life I have many adorable fluffy "nephews & nieces" who I love to spend my free time with. They are a combination of a Saint Bernard, a Newfoundland, German shepherds, American Bullies, & a mixed baby. I think it's fair to say I love dogs of all sizes! I decided to join Rover to re-enter the world of giving people's pets some TLC which will hopefully help me to paying my student loans. During the week I do work as a provider with underprivileged teens in Boston; my time will be divided but I am mindful of time and everyone's needs. I will only agree to what I can 100% promise to fully attend to as every dog deserves the best! Reach out with any questions! I'm currently working Tuesday-Saturday in Boston with teens. I work 3-4 days a week in the office & the other days I work from home. Days I work from home I am very flexible & can engage with the dogs throughout the day. On days I'm in the office I'm typically there between 10am-6:00pm so I would only have mornings and evenings to focus on the pet. I do whatever I can to make sure the dogs are comfortable. I always try to stick to the routine they have built already so they know what to expect. I recently moved back to Mass after living in Maine for a few years.
About: I care for dogs like no other. They are there for for you when your down and are the best. I want to be sure they are taken care of. Right now I have a flexible schedule. Any day of the week works pretty much for me right now. Early morning to afternoon is good. Make sure I have what I need to keep them safe. Make sure they have a crate or fence in their home. Or if the dog is okay off leash.
“Responded to a last-minute request and provided prompt response to questions. She was also willing to meet my pup before walking. Showed up on time and was very sweet and patient with my little princess Vizsla!”
About: Have dog almost all my life, have taken care of friends’ dog whether for some hours or overnight. Only accept 1-2 dogs at times so the place will not be crowded. Generous in time when walking neighbors dog. Work part-time remotely, live with a husband & 2 grown up kids still need drop off & pick up from their respective nearby school & work. Flexible time for any dog care. Live in a fenced yard, will have plenty of time playing or just hanging out at the backyard together with our 6 yr black Lab. Trustworthy, dependable for drop in visit and walk.
About: I grew up with Goldens and as an adult have always had a dog. My entire family loves dogs and our own dog, Leo, loves to have canine company to play in the house and go out for walks. Boarding: I can only accept hypoallergenic dogs Day Care: I can only accept hypoallergenic dogs Dog Walk: I am happy to walk dogs of all kinds. Hypoallergenic and non-hypoallergenic alike :-) I am a stay at home Mom to 4 teenagers with lots of flexibility to care for dogs. My own dog loves playmates and my kids all love to take long walks with furry four leggeds. I leash-walk dogs at least twice a day. Happy to let those who are voice command trained to be off leash if owner approves. We have a large crate if your dog likes to have a separate space for sleeping. Otherwise he/she can sleep on a dog bed or snuggle up with one of us humans. Whether your dog needs a drop-in walk, day care or boarding my family and I will take excellent care of him/her.
“Kendra was absolutely wonderful! She is friendly, very professional, and clearly amazing with our dog. From the start, she was incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with, which made the whole experience stress-free. It was obvious how comfortable and well cared for our dog was with her. We will definitely be using Kendra again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!”
About: I have been around dogs all of my life, once I was able to properly hold a leash there was no stopping me from hanging out with our 4-legged furry friends! I am a frequent dog walker for coworkers, friends, and family. I also have dog sat on multiple occasions for coworkers, friends, and family whenever they needed me. Most importantly I rescued a very active and very spoiled French Bulldog 6 years ago and he has made my love for dogs even stronger somehow! As much as I love dogs, I also love cats! I will make friends with any sort of animal if I am able to! I work a hybrid schedule for a corporate office. I am in the office on Tuesdays & Wednesdays, and I work from home the other 3 days. Monday, Thursday, Friday I take personal walks on my lunch break as well as after 5pm and would love for a furry friend to join me! Saturdays & Sundays I am open as well! Happy to walk your pup wherever in the neighborhood or area, we'd get out steps in! I have walked dogs in the past ranging from 15lbs, all the way up to 120lbs!

Angelica was absolutely wonderful with Boomer and Simba! She was on time, available on short notice, and made the whole experience stress-free. The dogs were so excited to see her and clearly enjoyed their walks. It’s obvious she genuinely cares about animals, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Wellesley Hills is $33 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $39 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.

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 Wellesley Hills. 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 Wellesley Hills 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 Wellesley Hills. On Rover:
- 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 90% 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.
