Dog Walking Amityville

About: Ask me about 4th of July Firework drop ins! Every dog deserves to feel like the main character of their day, not just the sidekick waiting for their human to get home. I keep a small number of weekday time slots open, so your dog gets the same dependable care each visit with plenty of updates so you know their story has a happy ending every time. I provide consistent, routine-based care for dogs who need walks and drop-ins during the workweek. Whether your dog is high-energy, a little anxious, or just thrives on structure, I make sure they’re exercised, cared for, and settled so their day flows smoothly. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and temperaments and I’m comfortable following detailed routines, feeding schedules, and administering medications if needed. I’m a full-time author with a flexible schedule, so I’m available for consistent walks, drop-ins, and daytime care. Weekday midday visits and after-work slots are my most popular, and I keep a few standing times open for repeat clients who need reliable coverage during the week. I’m also available for house sitting. If you’re looking for ongoing care, I’m happy to help you with a routine that works for you and your dog. When I’m caring for your dog in your home, I follow your routines closely including mealtimes, walks, medications, and any training rules you have in place. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including anxious, high-energy, and routine-sensitive dogs. I’m comfortable with crates if needed and focus on keeping dogs calm, engaged, and secure in their familiar space. You’ll get regular updates so you always know how your dog’s day is going.

About: I truly treat every pet like they’re my own. I have hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals including dogs, cats, and more, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, routines, and needs. I’m especially attentive to small details — like changes in behavior, appetite, or mood — so I can make sure your pet stays happy and healthy while you’re away. I have experience with energetic dogs who need structured walks and patience, as well as more sensitive or anxious pets who need a calm, gentle approach. I’m also comfortable caring for multiple pets at once and maintaining clean, safe environments (including litter boxes, cages, and feeding areas). What really sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give — I don’t just “watch” pets, I bond with them. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel completely at ease knowing your pet is in loving, reliable hands. Pet care is a big part of my everyday routine. I care for multiple animals at home, including dogs and cats, so I’m used to staying on a consistent schedule for feeding, cleaning, and giving each pet attention. I make time daily for walks, playtime, and bonding, and I’m very attentive to their behavior and needs. Caring for animals isn’t something I do occasionally—it’s part of my lifestyle, and I truly enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific preferences. I make sure pets have a clean, safe environment, plenty of attention, and regular potty breaks or exercise depending on their needs. I’m very attentive to behavior and will quickly notice if something seems off. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they feel reassured while they’re away. Whether I’m in my home or theirs, I treat every pet like my own and focus on making them feel safe, loved, and well cared for.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my background in K9 training and management and my genuine passion for working with dogs of all ages and personalities. I’m currently studying at SUNY Cobleskill, so I bring both hands on experience and current training knowledge into my care. I’m especially comfortable with puppies, helping with basics like leash manners, crate training, and building good habits, and I’m also very patient with senior dogs, making sure they stay comfortable and safe. I pay close attention to each dog’s behavior and body language so I can adjust to their needs, whether they’re energetic, shy, or reactive. I’m not just there to watch your dog, I’m there to understand them, support them, and make sure they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I’m currently on summer break from SUNY Cobleskill where I study K9 Training and Management, so I have a lot of free time and flexibility in my schedule. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day, including walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins. Since working with dogs is something I’m passionate about and studying for, I enjoy making it part of my daily routine and making sure each pet gets the care, exercise, and attention they need while their owners are away. When caring for pets in your home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, medication if needed, and any specific care the pet requires. I also make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise depending on their energy level and personality.

About: Hi! I'm Lauren :) As a school teacher, responsibility, patience, and safety are naturally built into everything I do, so you can rest assured your pup is in highly capable hands with me. I recently lost my beloved dog and absolute best friend, Charlie, and pet sitting has become my favorite way to channel all that leftover love into spoiling, pampering, and protecting other people's furry family members. I am a new homeowner, which means your dog will get to enjoy a spacious, fully fenced-in backyard that is perfect for safe outdoor playtime, fetch, and afternoon zoomies. Since I am on summer break, my schedule is completely wide open for boarding, housesitting, or check-ins and drop-ins to let your pup out. I know how tough it is to be away from your pets, so I make it a priority to send picture updates throughout the day so you always have total peace of mind. Whether your dog needs a high-energy or calm play space, I cannot wait to welcome them into my new home! I am a teacher, which means I am available all summer long. If your pet needs care in the mornings, evenings, or nights, whatever your schedule needs, I am there! I have a house with a spacious, fenced-in yard. I do not have other pets, so I would love to share my yard with some furry friends. Your pet will be my main focus, receiving lots of love and attention!

About: I’ve had many cats and dogs ever since I was a child. My mom is a volunteer at a local shelter and we have fostered several dogs in the past as well. I have helped care for our own pets and the fosters over the years and I love it! I currently have a flexible schedule and am available for drop-ins or walks any day of the week. Times are also flexible for walks and drop-ins. I care for pets by listening to the pet owner’s directions in what they would like me to do and how they would like me to care for their pet. I am very friendly and affectionate but can also be stern when need be. I am able to walk, feed and clean litter boxes.

About: Grew around German Sheppards and Chow Chows so super comfortable around larger dogs. I don’t believe all of the negative stereotypes that follow certain breeds. I’ve cared for dogs and cats for my friends and families for many years. I work from home, which means I have the ability to provide your animal with as many pets/ cuddles and walks they can stand 🙌🏼 When caring for someone’s pet I make sure to follow every request, each animal is different so I depend upon the owners direction for how to make them comfortable and happy.

About: I grew up in a house full of pets and have volunteered at various pet rescues. Now, 51 years later, through every chapter of my life, milestones, joys, and losses, there has always been a pet by my side. I can’t imagine a home without the sound of paws, the comfort of companionship, or the simple, grounding presence of an animal. I work full time from home and am happy to be flexible to any schedule. This works particularly well for pets that are used to a routine. My pets include a Labrador Retriever named "Jax" who is 6 years old. Jax likes to run about in our fenced yard. I also have 3 cats named "Beau", "Shadow" and "Oliver" who remain indoor. All of my babies are rescues.

About: Hi my name is Jen. I am a huge animal lover. I’ve been a dog and cat owner most of my life. Ive also being the proud owner of ferrets, guinea pigs, rabbits and fish. I currently have 2 amazing kitties (2 and 3 yr old) my beloved yorkie passed away last year at the age of 15 from renal failure, she fought for over 2 yrs, my brave little girl. I’ve cared for dogs from 5lbs to 140lbs. I have a lot of patience with animals and treat them as my own. Children and pets are the precious family members who need TLC, which is why I spent most of my adult life in a career caring for both. It is so hard to trust someone to care for your pets while you are away, but be rest assured that you will feel comfortable and at ease with me. Your pet will be cared for as if they are my own. Please reach out if you ever need help w caring for your fur babies 💕 I am currently doing pet care daily, as this is my livelihood. I have some flexibility so pls reach out if you need me to care for your fur baby. I have a lot of experience and great references. Whatever u need pls know your pet is in safe hands. I’m extra cautious when it comes to caring for your fur baby. I make sure all gates are shut before letting them outside. I will let them out to make sure they do their business and play w them as well. If u need me to walk them I will leash them securely and make sure to not have any other dogs come too close unless told otherwise. Leaving your home, I am extremely careful making sure your pets do not slip out the door.

“Taylor was fantastic! We needed to reschedule and she was on top of it and super responsive. She sent me pictures and kept me updated on her bowel movements and behavior etc. It was my first time using Rover for a dog walk and she exceeded my expectations! (Esp since my husband I have trust issues with our fur pup 😅) Highly recommend Taylor!”

Whether it’s long walks, endless games of fetch, cozy cuddle sessions, or just making sure dinner is served right on time, I’ll keep tails wagging and purrs going strong. I’ve cared for pups big and small—from Yorkies to Beagles to German Shepherds to Mastiffs—and I adore cats of all personalities, from shy lap cats to curious mischief-makers. No matter their style, I’ll match their vibe and keep them happy, entertained, and well-loved. You’ll come home to a pet that’s safe, cared for, and maybe just a little spoiled (in the best way!). Can’t wait to meet you and your furry friend(s)! 🐶🐱 Details: 📍 Massapequa Park, NY 🚭 Non-smoker 🚗 Reliable transportation 💻 Work-from-home schedule during the week I work from home 9–5 during the week, so your pet will have a buddy around all day.

About: Hey there! I am new to sitting, but always willing to learn and gain experience :) Happy to take on any type of dog or cat (I have both). My cat is an escape artist, and my dog is insane. I can handle it all. I am free all summer for pet care! There is a short stretch of time in August where i will be away, but other than that, I am excited to meet new pet friends :) I am well versed in crating dogs, as well as keeping an eye on mischievous animals. I will follow any instructions given very carefully and ensure your pet is happy and healthy while you are away.

“Bradley has been an absolutely fantastic dog walker. He is incredibly friendly, caring, and understanding, and it’s clear from the start that he genuinely loves working with animals. He consistently goes above and beyond during walks — even incorporating a bit of running, which my dog absolutely loves and benefits from. Bradley is also extremely responsive and communicative, which gives me great peace of mind. I always know my dog is in good hands with him. It’s rare to find someone who truly cares about the pets they look after, but Bradley definitely does. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and compassionate dog walker.”
