“Ann graciously took my appointment last minute and showed up on time. Took him for an hour walk. She was very communicative. Would definitely use her again and recommend her.”
“Could not recommend her enough! She’s helped out my puppy journey so much. My pup loves when she comes over! He looks forward to it everyday! Also made sure to come over to met my dog before their first walk! Every responsible!!”
“Gabriela was excellent! She was very responsive and our pup was in great hands with her! Our 7 month old puppy had a blast on her walk and we will certainly reach out to Gabriela in the future”
“Louca worked wonders for us and our super reactive miniature dachshund. His patience, knowledge, and professional and positive attitude were a huge relief after searching for and failing to find someone to look after our dog when we were away for short periods. Louca has given us so much hope for our little puppy’s future and we look forward to working with him again! Thank you Louca !!”
“Caitlin arrived on time and supplied answers to all of my questions. Meet and greet was useful for me to get more comfortable with the person who was going to walk Bells”
“Asia was great! Her notes, updates and overall communication were great and precise. Her flexibility was beyond helpful and appreciated! I would for sure recommend her to anyone in the area.”
“Paul is great! My dog has special needs and Paul went out of his way to learn how to help him before he even met my dog! He’s really trustworthy and devoted to animals and I appreciate him so much! My dog adores Paul so much and I feel so lucky to have found him to look after Georgie when I’m not able to”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have always considered them part of the family. Growing up, my family had four dogs, and I was incredibly close to each of them. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I truly enjoy getting to know their individual personalities, routines, and needs. I’ve also had my own dog since he was just a few months old, and he is now five years old. He means the world to me, and I take pride in giving him the love, attention, exercise, and care he deserves. Being a dog owner has taught me how important it is to be patient, attentive, responsible, and dependable when caring for someone’s pet. When your dog is in my care, I want you to feel confident knowing they are being treated with the same love and attention I give my own. I’m attentive to their needs, enjoy spending time with them, and will make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I’m available throughout the week and have a flexible schedule, with most of my availability in the mornings. 🐾 Dog Walking: I’m available for walks all week during the mornings. On weekends, I’m available at any time of the day. 🏡 Day Sitting: I’m available for day sitting on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, with full-day availability. I’m also home frequently, so your pup will have plenty of company and attention throughout the day. 🛏️ Boarding: I’m available for overnight boarding from Thursday through Sunday. Boarding on other days may also be possible with advance discussion. I’m happy to work with your dog’s routine whenever possible and will always do my best to accommodate their individual needs. 🐶❤️ A typical day with me is filled with plenty of love, attention, exercise, and playtime! I live in a safe and secure apartment community with lots of open space where dogs can enjoy walks and get some fresh air. One of my favorite features of my community is our fenced-in dog park located right next to the pool. It’s a great, secure space where dogs can run around, play, and get their energy out while being safely supervised. There are also plenty of other dogs throughout the community, so for pups who enjoy socializing, there are opportunities to meet some new furry friends and have a little playtime together. Of course, I always take each dog’s personality and comfort level into consideration. A typical day would include regular walks, playtime, plenty of attention and affection, and time to relax and feel comfortable in their home away from home. I love keeping dogs engaged with activities, giving them lots of interaction, and making sure they get the exercise and stimulation they need. Most importantly, I want every dog in my care to feel safe, happy, and loved. I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as possible and give them the same patience and attention I would want someone to give my own dog. 🐾❤️
“Logan has been absolutely amazing with my dog, Milo! His communication is excellent — he always keeps me updated with messages and photos from their walks, which gives me peace of mind. He’s incredibly responsible and caring, and it’s clear that he truly loves spending time with the dogs he walks. Milo is always excited to see him.”
About: From social to skiddish, cuddly to aggressive, I really have a soft spot for any kitty I’ve gotten to know and taking care of them is second nature to me. Most recently, I’ve lived with a very sweet and very spicy cat Sasha, so patience has been key! For the past few years, I have taken care of an incredible golden retriever named Frieda in Southern Vermont. She is nearly 13— we go on twice-daily walks, I brush and trim her long fur, and I make sure she's comfortable around her two kitty relatives in the house. I will be happy to provide this care for your dogs as well, meeting them where they are at in terms of walking, socializing, and other kinds of care I can provide. I am new to Worcester and beginning a graduate school program at MCPHS. I have both remote and in-person classes, but will have ample time everyday to make room for cat care! I am extremely patient when it comes to pet care and I know that it may take time for your pets to warm up to me. I have a warm and gentle presence that will make your kitties and pups and other pets feel safe and comfortable. Much of my pet-sitting in past years has included house-sitting as well, so rest assured that your home is in good hands.
“Always wonderful to have Haleigh come over to see our dog for some extra love, a walk, and feed both the dog/cat their dinner. Thanks so much for helping with the “kids” this weekend”
About: We are a very friendly and loving couple that absolutely adores animals! We have grew up with dogs, cats, bunnies, parrots and even rats! We love taking care of pets and adapting to their own temperament and needs. We are currently working remote and finishing school remotely, so we are home available all day and capable to walk and care for your pet fully. We love to go for long walks, hikes, dog parks, beach rides or simply cuddle all day! We have a big 2 bedroom apartment that has a medium unfenced yard in the back . We also have a corgi to keep your furry baby company. Iggy, our young corgi, loves to play but will respect boundaries if your pet needs their space.
About: I've had cats my whole life. I also dog sit and dog walk for my friends and colleagues, and I worked as a farm hand on a horse farm for many years, so I have experience with horses and all sorts of farm animals as well. I work full-time as a biology teacher, but I am available nights and weekends to care for pets, as well as holidays and school vacations. I think consistency for pets is very important, so I try to match whatever the pet-owner does as closely as I can. No one knows their pet like the owner, so I follow directions exactly in order to insure the best possible experience for the pet. I also have lots of experience with pet/animal surprises like ticks, cuts, minor injuries and full-blown emergencies, so you can feel confident that every situation is going to be handled with the pet's best interest first. My schedule is flexible and varies depending on your location and needs. I do work full time in Worcester and find that I am usually able to schedule around that. Pet safety is my number one priority! I treat my clients pets as if they are my own, and many of my clients have grown to feel like family over the years (I've even been asked to babysit their human kids!)

Rebecka has been the best with our little Pug. He is very high energy and she is patient with him and loves on him. She communicates throughly with us about his walks and sends us so many photos! She works with our schedule (along with hers) to ensure she is able to take care of Chip. We are so happy to find someone we trust to take care of our little guy!

The average cost for Dog Walking in Worcester on Rover is $19.26 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 5,284 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Worcester. 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 Worcester. 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 Worcester.

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 Worcester. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% 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 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.
