“Sometimes I have to go into the office for a few days at a time and Caitlin is so reliable, I know she will arrive when we discussed and make sure my dog Summer gets a good walk, even in bad weather! Thanks Caitlin :)”
About: I absolutely love dogs! I’ve had large dogs all my life, have pet-sat for many friends and neighbors, and have fostered 15+ rescue dogs for Last Hope K9 Rescue. I am also a dog training enthusiast, and have been training my Australian Shepherd for obedience and agility for the past 6 years. I recently interned with a local veterinarian, handling all sorts of pets including dogs, cats, and rabbits. I live right near the Middlesex Fells Reservation, and love bringing canine friends along on Fells adventures! I am home all day all summer, with lots of time on my hands to play with pups, take them on hikes, and give them all the attention they deserve! I am 18, and I live with my parents and sister (16). I have a fully fenced yard. It is accessible to the neighbors' two friendly dogs who often come over to play, but the yard can be closed off as necessary. I have a 6 year old Australian Shepherd who loves other dogs, but he usually keeps to himself when they stay over.
“Ashley is absolutely wonderful with my dog Gracie and is very accommodating and flexible. Gracie is quite timid and skittish and Ashley is great with her! Would highly recommend!”
“Laura was reliable and dependable. Shiloh was excited to see Laura every time Laura came to take her out for a walk. Both Laura and Shiloh enjoyed their time together. It was a perfect match.”
“Sasha came in very clutch for us when our dog walker last minute canceled on us!! They were able to take our husky out twice and we couldn’t appreciate it more than we do! Thank you”
“Shawn has helped me a number of times take care of my golden retriever and has been a real lifesaver. She is experienced, reliable, clearly cared about my dogs wellbeing and was also a great communicator. She took my dog April for multiple long walks and also figured out how to safely get her some running exercise on a long line. Would definitely recommend Shawn!”
“Victoria was great, she was easy to communicate with and very accommodating for my bernese, she came right to where we were staying for a meet and greet to keep her calm.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my deep compassion, patience, and experience with dogs who need extra attention—especially those with anxiety or special routines. I have hands-on experience caring for senior dogs, puppies, and pets who struggle with separation anxiety. My own dog, Sasha, has anxiety, so I understand the importance of gentle care, consistency, and emotional support. I treat every pet like family, and I’m committed to creating a calm, safe, and loving environment while you’re away. Whether your pup needs long walks, slow introductions, or just a cozy lap to nap on—I’ve got you covered! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I have Mondays and Tuesdays off, which gives me plenty of time for daytime walks and drop-ins. On other days, I’m able to fit in visits between school and work—and I don’t mind doing late-night drop-ins if your pet needs evening attention. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, so I’m happy to make it a priority in my schedule. I’m dependable, flexible, and always focused on making pets feel safe and loved while you’re away. I only offer pet care in the client’s home because I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable in their own familiar environment. I follow your pet’s routine closely—whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or administering medication. I respect your space, keep things tidy, and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. My goal is always to provide reliable, stress-free care that gives both you and your pet peace of mind.
“Kailee is super dependable and our dog loves her walks with her. She provides great photo updates on their walks which makes us feel great about when we have to leave the house for the day. Thanks Kailee for all your hard work!”
“Lindsey is wonderful. She is reliable, timely, and very thoughtful. Our pup loves her walks with Lindsey and we trust and appreciate how great she is with our dog. We are repeat customers and I would highly recommend her!”
About: Hey there! I'm Alexa. After nearly six years of boarding dogs and cats in my Boston condo, I recently moved to north Jersey and am excited to meet some new furry friends! I've cared for small lap dogs, mixed/rescue breeds, and giant dogs. As long as they're friendly, I know we'll get a long great. I'm currently available for drop-in visits for dogs or cats and walking dogs. I work from home and my schedule is always different, so I'm able to do walks or drop-in visits at various times with a max of 2 walks/visits per day. I am warm and nurturing. i love giving dogs and cats all the pats or belly rubs or playing with a favorite toy! Let me know if you want me to brush their coat while we're together. I've given oral medications to both dogs and cats, so let me know if that's needed for your pet.
“My stranger reactive dog has come SO far with Ryan’s help. He went from growling and lunging from our front porch when he saw Ryan to excitedly greeting him at the door. Every week Ryan has worked patiently with my dog, gradually teaching Bandit to trust him and how to be more brave when confronted with fears and triggers. I can’t stress enough how amazing Ryan is. If I could give him 6 stars I would!”

Kaylor is a fabulous dog walker! He walked my dog Margot 3x per week for the past year, and he is dependable, always coming within the time block we requested; he is an excellent communicator, always letting me know if something came up last minute that would change the schedule. He was great with Margot's occasional stubbornness, as well as with the snow, heat, and rain. Highly recommend!!
Daniel seems like a nice guy! He was kind, and considerate, and gentle with my shy dog that needed it. He was happy to do a quick meetup a few days before our first walk with him. He was communicative, and met or exceeded every expectation I had. I’ll be happy to have Daniel come take care of my Laura again.

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 Medford. 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.

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 West Medford. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
