About: I helped raise my best friends puppy, and used to be my neighbors go-to dog walker! I will make sure that your furry friends are safe and happy :) I recently moved back to Westchester, and am looking forward to exploring with your pets! I usually go on daily walks, so I’m excited to add your furry friends to the routine :) I follow all the safety procedures described by the client, and make sure to follow any routines the client has in place for the pup!
About: I have been around animals my whole life! I grew up on a campground and my family and I were very pet-oriented. I have an abundance of experience caring for all types of pets, from cats and dogs to guinea pigs, birds, and bunnies! I’m a full time student during the school year at CU Boulder, so I will be around and dedicated to caring for your pets. My schedule is extremely flexible and adjustable to your care needs :) I live in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood to walk your pets in! I’m also a 1 minute walk from a fenced-in park that dogs love to play in. My 2 girl roommates are certified animal lovers so your pet will be bombarded with love here :)
About: I’ve always loved dogs, and started walking them about 6 years ago. Now I’ve mostly worked with senior pets, usually medium sized dogs. I’m always eager to learn more about any animal in my care, and will stay in touch with daily updates. I’m almost always available, and I have plenty of time to give your pet individualized care and attention. If you need me, I’m there for your pet! I prefer to schedule a meeting to meet you and your pet before sitting for them. That way I’m familiar to them, and I can hear directly from you about any special needs, medications, habits, and things to look out for.
About: Some dog training experience. Able to administer oral medications. Reliable. Responsible. Reeourceful. Always eager to learn. Trustworthy. Your pet's needs are always top priority to me! As I am retiring as a Healthcare professional, I am ready to give my new pet care services top priority! You and your pet to receive A1 service. As the services I am providing at the present time are based on your place of residence, dog walking and home drop in visits, your pet will always have the safety and comforts of the familiar.
About: Animals have been my passion since childhood, and I’ve had up to 5 dogs at a time! I also have extensive experience rescuing stray cats and dogs, volunteering to help them recover and find loving homes. From puppies learning the ropes to senior pets needing extra TLC, I offer personalized care for every stage of your pet’s life. With my background in animal rescue and pet care, you can trust your furry friend will receive the highest level of attention, love, and safety. Your pet will not just be cared for – they’ll be treated like family! I’m available for pet care in the mornings from 9 AM to 12 PM, and after 6 PM on weekdays. Starting in July, I’ll be available only after 6 PM on weekdays, but I’m open and flexible on weekends. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or extra snuggles, I’ll be there when you need me! As an organized and respectful person, I ensure that your pet feels safe and at ease in their own environment. I carefully follow any guidelines you provide to make sure your pet’s routine remains consistent, and I take extra precautions to maintain a secure and comfortable space for them. You can trust that your furry friend will be treated with love, respect, and attention to detail while they’re in the comfort of their own home.
“Karen was a huge help to me and my wife, who had just sprained her ankle. Our dog is new to us and still not fully trained, but with my wife unable to walk him, Karen really helped us out, and she handled his walks with no problem!”
“Would 100% recommend Italia!! She did wonderful with my senior dog. His health isn’t very good and she was patient with him and made him feel very comfortable. I couldn’t have asked for a better dog walker!”
“I’ve had an amazing experience with Darianny and couldn’t recommend her more. She’s always on time, communicates clearly, and sends frequent updates, which gives me complete peace of mind while I’m away. Her background as a vet tech made it an easy decision to trust her with Parsley, but what really sets her apart is who she is as a person. The compassion, attention to detail, and genuine love and care she shows Parsley go far beyond her professional experience. It’s obvious she truly cares about the animals she looks after. I always know Parsley is safe, happy, and in great hands with Darianny, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. She’s become someone I completely trust to care for him whenever I’m away!”
“Thandi’s visits are always above and beyond. Our dog adores her and we do too! We are super thankful to have Thandi in our circle to help care for our dog when we need it.”
“Andrew is awesome and has been a huge help with our dog Tuck and is always accommodative of our crazy schedule. He’s reliable, dependable, and our dog (who is sometimes difficult) is always happy to see him.”
About: I’ve grown up with large-breed dogs, especially Labs, and have cared for two or more cats at a time. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me for over five years to walk, feed, and bathe their pets—including large dogs and bigger cat breeds. I’m comfortable handling active dogs, giving them plenty of exercise, and providing calm, loving care for all animals. I treat every pet as if they were my own. My schedule is full-time remote but flexible, and I’m happy to work with most schedules. This allows me to give your pets the time, attention, and care they deserve, whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company while you’re away. I create a safe, loving environment in my own home and will be sure to do the same in yours. I follow your pet’s routines, ensure they’re comfortable, and keep them supervised during walks or playtime. Whether it’s making sure they get enough exercise, providing calm companionship, or keeping their space clean and cozy, I always put their well-being first.
“I injured my ankle and signed up for Rover to help with my boy’s walks. Grace accepted my walk request and showed up promptly early the very next morning. She was professional, bright, alert, and she was knowledgeable and at ease with my high energy Golden. Even though it was pouring rain she took my boy on a 1 hour walk and was gracious with his idiosyncrasies. For my first experience with Rover I’m very satisfied and happy with Grace. Already booking her again for walks. Winston had a great time with Grace!”
“PJ is the BEST!!! He's super reliable, always on time, sends the best pictures, gives Chewbacca lots of love and attention and communicates just the right amount. No wonder Chewy loves him. Maybe a little too much?!? Makes me a little jealous actually. But what's better than knowing your dog loves seeing his "second best friend!" I know he's in great and caring hands with PJ!”
“Kim has been an incredible Dog Walker for us and our pooch, Rory! She's beyond helpful, punctual, and on the rare occasion has provided us important feedback when our dog has been less than cooperative. She's incredibly kind and not only does our dog love Kim, but Kim loves our dog as well. She gives her a great workout every time we use her and in a pinch when we've needed more help, Kim has been there every time to help us out! She's been a Godsend!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Dobbs Ferry
Drew walked our 2 dogs (a Lab and a Cocker Spaniel mix) every day for a week and it worked out great. He was very thorough in his communications and punctual on each visit. Our dogs can be anxious, but Drew was great with them and they instantly became comfortable. I would highly recommend Drew.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Dobbs Ferry is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $30 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Dobbs Ferry. 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 route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Dobbs Ferry after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 Dobbs Ferry. On Rover:
- 83% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 87% 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 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.
