“Bonnie did a great job introducing our new puppy to the neighborhood. She fed, watered, and walked him each day, right on time. I love the pics! They helped put this new fur mama's mind at ease. We look forward to the next vacation week to hire Bonnie again.”

About: I’ve always loved spending time with dogs and enjoy getting outside for walks and adventures. As a medical student currently between clinical rotations, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet attention and care. Whether your dog needs a midday walk, some extra exercise, or simply a friendly companion while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I grew up with cats and dogs in the family, and more recently have been loving helping my dad raise his Bernese Mountain puppy! These experiences have taught me that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I love getting to know them and making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m a medical student currently in between clinical rotations, which means I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the care and attention they deserve. Whether your dog needs a long walk, some extra playtime and companionship, or you need someone to help with feeding and other pet-care needs, I’d love to help! I’m primarily interested in dog walking and giving pets some extra exercise, fresh air, and companionship! I’ll tailor my care to each pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs, whether that means a long walk, a leisurely stroll, playtime, feeding, or simply some extra attention while you’re away. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions you provide regarding your pet’s care, and in your home, I’ll be respectful of your space and your pet’s routine. Most importantly, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for—and I’m happy to send photos and updates so you know how they’re doing!

About: We are a trio (Riven, Matt, Jason) that have mostly work from home schedules. We have individual Rover verified profiles, and this one is Rivens. I have lived with cats, dogs, and animals of all sorts my whole life. After growing up on a farm and being a founding member of the local 4H Club, my love for animals continued to fostering through rescues, volunteering, and my own pets such as my now passed 17 year cat named Moya, whom I had had since she was a few months old. We around a lot of dogs over the course of the week, so we are unable to on any dogs that will not do well with others for more than an over night. If you have feline family, I am happy to play with crinkle balls, laser pointers, or be a lap as needed. For boarding, my Matt and Jason (also on Rover) and myself are home 95% of the day and can usually accommodate most pick up or drop off time, frequent potty breaks, and walks. For drop in visits we are avaliable to work in the Shirely and immediately surounding area. We have some flexibility with the schedule that we can work out if you're interested! We offer lots of human and other dog socialization in our home. We have people and dogs visitors in home as well as on walks to parks and rivers.

About: Having grown up with a dog and now raising a family with two young children, caring for living creatures with patience, structure, and genuine affection is second nature to me. I understand that pets aren't just animals—they're family members who thrive on consistent routines, clear boundaries, and lots of attention. Whether it’s keeping up with an energetic pup’s routine, managing feeding schedules, or ensuring a calm, cozy environment overnight, I bring a gentle, dependable, and highly organized approach to pet care. I treat every home with utmost respect and every dog as if they were my own. As a mom with a structured daily routine, pet care integrates seamlessly into my schedule. I focus on early morning and evening routines—ideal times for overnight house sitting, morning feedings, and evening walks or drop-in visits. Because my household operates on a reliable daily rhythm, I am highly consistent with feeding schedules, timely medication, and bedtime routines. Whether dropping in for a 30-minute visit or staying overnight, I plan my days to ensure pets receive dedicated, uninterrupted attention during their most important care windows. Safety, clear communication, and respecting your space are my top priorities. As a parent of two young children, taking a proactive approach to safety is second nature to me—I am always vigilant about securing doors, keeping household hazards or small objects out of reach, and maintaining a clean, secure space. In your home, I strictly follow your specific security instructions, keep feeding areas tidy, manage litter boxes daily, and ensure your pet’s normal routine remains completely undisturbed. For walks and outdoor time, I keep dogs securely leashed and pay close attention to environmental surroundings. I respect every pet’s boundaries by letting timid animals approach at their own pace, and I always confirm your local vet details and care instructions beforehand. You can count on frequent updates and photos so you always know your pet and home are in safe, caring hands.

About: I absolutely adore dogs. They have been such a huge help in my life and I can’t wait to help them! I had to leave my position at a doggy daycare because it was too far from me. I am a loving, nuturing and an understanding human being. I am super excited to continue to train, love and work with dogs all shapes and sizes! I have a car, am open full time and will pay the most attention to your dog while they are in my care. I worked at Perfect Paws doggy daycare and we would play with the dogs, clean up after them, and love them. We would pick them up and drop them off. I currently have no job so I’m free all day! Dogs have helped me Through so much and all I want to do is to be able to give back! The services I offer are as follows, at home sitting, drop in visits and walks! Thank you for viewing me as a possible candidate to be welcomed into your life.

About: I have been a lover and caretaker for animals since I was young. I foster puppy’s often and love it. Having the opportunity to train and prep them to find their forever homes is so special to me. From potty training, to obedience training and everything in between as a start to giving them their best lives! Through Fostering, I have learned how to connect with dogs on a different level. I would love to have the opportunity to walk, connect and take care of your animals as needed. I work part time and I have plenty of time to do drop ins or take your pups on a nice walk. Around the neighborhood or a few miles in the woods. What ever matches their energy. I treat every animal I care for like they are my own, keeping them safe and loved while they are in my care. ❤️ ❤️

“I just met Matt this year and he has been such a great support ! I work really long hours and was hesitant about finding a dog sitter as my dog is really selective with men. From one meet and greet my dog was comfortable with Matt & was friendly right away! Matt has been consistent and is extremely reliable & follows instructions! He makes sure remy is exhausted by the time he’s done and he also makes sure to give her her water breaks while on walks! I’m definitely sticking with Mat as a dog sitter. 🫶🏼 thank you for being there for my sweet girl !”

About: I have over 20 years of personal experience with my own cats and dogs, and about 6 years of doggy daycare experience. From pack leader to poop scooper, I enjoy it all :) I was recently laid off from work and now have plenty of time to do what I love! I would like to keep my hours around 6am - 8pm, but am willing to be more flexible if you need. Safety is always a priority. Before deciding to take care of your animal, I make sure we can work together with respect, from both sides. That way, we can build trust and have a stressless, safe time together.

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 West Groton. 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 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.

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.
