“Sean is simply excellent. His communication with us is outstanding and prompt, and if something in our booking needs to change, he’s incredibly proactive. We also love and appreciate the care and attention that he gives to our puppy on their afternoon walks. We’re incredibly lucky to have Sean!”

About: I have always been passionate about animals which led me to work in veterinary medicine. My job is incredibly rewarding, getting to take care of cats and dogs and learn about the intricacies of maintaining their health. I am now working with aquatic animals as well! I am hard working, considerate and always up for a challenge! I have over 2 years of veterinary experience and a year of dog/ cat sitting experience. Hello! I am a former veterinary technician who is now working full time at the mystic aquarium. I would absolutely love to care for your pets in my free time. I am available on my lunch breaks (1 hour), before and after work and on weekends. I am available for dog walking, house calls and house sitting! I am very organized and maintain a schedule within my work and everyday life. I will tailor my time according to your pets needs, making sure they get their walks, meals and enrichment properly in a way that suits them best!

“Jennifer has been so great with my anxious dog Cambria. She accommodated my request for a few meetings with all of us together so Cambria would be more comfortable when Jennifer came to our house for care. Cambria had her first solo visit yesterday and Jennifer sent me pictures which was wonderful to receive and eased my mind. I would recommend Jennifer to everyone who is a little nervous about leaving their dog, she is so kind and compassionate and made my anxious dog feel at ease.”

About: I have extensive experience pet sitting for dogs (all ages), cats, rabbits, chickens and other birds, small mammals, and farm animals, including animals with special medical needs. I also have experiencw with exotic pets. I am certified in Pet First Aid and CPR. I have been a volunteer for both an animal shelter and a local animal rescue league chapter, as well as at many events that benefit animals, and have had pets of my own since childhood. I currently live with a wonderful, sweet, sassy 7 year old female Corgi. I owned 2 wonderful Siberian Huskies who lived to be seniors, and in the course, required regular medications, special diet, physical therapy exercises, assisted walking, and wound cleaning, so I am very familiar with dealing with health issues, and am able to recognize when an animal is in any distress. As I believe emotional well-being is just as important as physical, I will always spend time with your pet, or exercise him/her with his/her favorite toy or game. If your pet is in training, I would be happy to reinforce what he/she is learning. Caring for animals is not just what I do, it's who I am! I look forward to hearing from you! Please feel free to check out my Facebook page under Pawsibilities Pet Services for reviews! Pet sitting is my full time job, so I am basically at your disposal when it comes to your pets! You will find me very flexible! I am in a pet friendly community with ample safe places to walk. If you prefer your pet crated while I am not present I am happy to do so. I will try to keep a routine, as pets thrive on that.

I make sure pets receive proper care, attention, exercise, and affection while their owners are away.

I do not have a fenced yard but I will keep your fur babies safe and keep an eye on them at all times. I do have 2 other dogs that are friendly so your fur babies can have someone to play with.

I currently work full time in pet care services! I offer around the clock care for pets and their owners! I love what I do and have never been happier! I don’t offer in my home services due to one of my dogs being selective of others. In your home we could spend the day in many ways. Playtime, snuggles, walks or hikes. Let me know what you prefer I am happy to accommodate most requests! I also have a vast inventory of enrichment toys that I can utilize for any pet!

About: I’ve always dog-sat for family and friends and have plenty of experience caring for dogs. I also worked at a pet resort for two years while in high school, where I cared for and interacted with dogs of all different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m very comfortable around dogs and understand that each one has its own needs and routine. I’m currently a college student and am looking to provide dog-sitting and pet care, especially over the next few weeks after my internship ends and before I head back to school. I love being around dogs and would be happy to help with dog sitting, walks, drop-in visits, or anything else your pup may need! I’d be happy to help with walks, potty breaks, drop-in visits, and giving your dog some extra love and attention while you’re away! I have a small dog of my own at home, so I’m not able to provide care in my home, but I’m more than happy to come to you and care for your pup in the comfort of their own space.

Libby did a fantastic job. She was prompt and took my dog on a long and safe walk and reporting back on his actions. She gave him water when they returned. I would definitely have Libby again take care of my dog. She is a caring and compassionate person.

FAQs for Dog Walking - West Mystic

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in West Mystic on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 740 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across West Mystic. 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 West Mystic. 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 West Mystic.

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 West Mystic. On Rover:

  • 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
