“Michael and Lisa are phenomenal! They are extremely responsive and professional. They took great care of our pup and made sure to tailor the walk to our dogs preferences and needs.”
“Amanda is absolutely conscientious and dependable, but what REALLY shines is the calm demeanor and gentle nature that won over our old but still a bit rambunctious Mac immediately. Dogs always seem to know who to trust and he wasn't wrong. Sad to see her go, but we'll most definitely hire her again!”
About: I’ve worked at a Veterinary Hospital for 32 yrs, raised/trained more than 15 puppies to be service dogs & have been doing Animal Assisted Therapy since 1993. I have recently retired, set up my house to be dog friendly and now I have plenty of time to spend with my dogs and your pups! My home is clean and dog friendly with a fenced in backyard. All dogs are allowed on the couch (if you allow that) and my lap (small dogs plz). There are plenty of toys and dog beds for resting:) I also have many baby gates if a dog wants alone time.
“Julia went above and beyond to accommodate our very socially anxious dog. He’s always extremely excited to see her again, she stayed with him to calm him down when he was howling out of loneliness, she always replies quickly, and she’ll even bake cookies for the owners. Best experience we’ve had on this app”
“Madison is great! Great communication, followed all the steps needed to properly walk Enzo and went above and beyond to ensure my dog was taken care of. The photos provided during the walks were a nice touch and shows that Madison provides high quality customer service!! I would highly recommend Madison and would definitely use her services again in the future.”
“Brett was absolutely amazing with our boy, Tex. I had to go away for a weekend and the person I had set up to walk Tex had to leave town (my fiance was able to care for him but is diabled so couldn't walk him) so I was in a bind. I signed up on Rover and found Brett. She met with Tex before I left and she was amazing. THEN...another friend who was going to walk Tex, suddenly became sick and had to cancel a few walks (I was already 8hrs away and panicking). Brett stepped in last minute and covered those walks too! I don't know what I would've done without her!”
“We were looking for someone reliable with experience, and preferably local to the area. Laurie checked all of those boxes and more! She was so attentive, loving, and patient with our new puppy, could not ask for a better walker for our Aussie Shepherd!”
About: Hi there! I’m Jacob, and I’ve been passionate about dogs my whole life. Growing up, I was the go-to person for taking care of friends and family’s dogs, whether it was walking, feeding, playing, or just giving them the love and attention they deserve. Now, as a recent college graduate with a degree in Film Production from New Paltz, I’m back on Long Island and looking to combine my love for dogs with the opportunity to make some extra income. I understand that every dog has its own unique personality and needs, and I’m dedicated to making sure they feel comfortable and safe while in my care. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, cozy cuddles, or a little playtime, I’m ready to make their experience as enjoyable as possible. I also pride myself on being reliable, responsible, and detail-oriented—traits that I honed during my time managing creative projects in film production. If you’re looking for someone who treats your dog like family, I’d love to help out. Let’s make sure your dog has the best experience when you're away! I currently work part-time, but I pride myself on having a flexible schedule that can easily accommodate you and your pet's needs. With enough notice, I’m happy to adjust my availability to ensure that your dog receives the attention, care, and love they deserve, whether it’s a daily walk, overnight care, or just some extra playtime. I’m here to make sure your pup feels at ease, no matter what your schedule looks like! Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities. I’m a big believer in the outdoors, so I love taking dogs for walks and letting them run off some energy in safe, controlled spaces. When caring for your dog at your home, I respect your space and routines while ensuring they feel comfortable and secure. I’m committed to your pet’s safety and well-being, and I treat them like family.
About: I have experience running my own pet care business caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds and personalities! including senior pets, diabetic pets and those who require a little extra attention. I specialize in making anxious dogs feel calm and safe while their pet parent is away! Feel free to check out my business website! ........ I have always had a flexible schedule, so fitting in daily walks or dog care on weekends is no issue. I would not leave your pup alone for a long period as I usually don’t work long hours. I will provide your pup with all the attention he/she craves and make sure the meals/meds are given on time. I don’t mind doing some extra things like watering house plants, bringing in mail and I especially love giving dog massages if your he/she enjoys that!
About: I grew up with dogs and have been taking care of them ever since I can remember. I have a wide range of experience ranging from training young puppies to taking care of elderly and sick dogs. I love all animals and would love to hang out with your pup! I am available most weeks for the whole day if needed. I can stay with or occasionally drop by to feed, walk, and hang out with your pet! I ensure that both the pets and the homes are left better than they were when I came. My pets have always been treated with love and kindness, as all pets should be.
About: I love all animals, but I have a special place in my heart for dogs! I grew up with a family dog and have cared for many of my friends’ and family members’ pets over the past 10 years. I’ve also trained my own dog and love learning new tips and techniques to help pets thrive. Whether it’s a quick walk around the block or a long hike on the trails, I truly enjoy spending time outdoors with dogs. I’m also hoping that by dog sitting and walking, I’ll finally convince my husband that it’s time for us to adopt our own pup soon! 🐶❤️ I currently work Tues-Thurs full time in NYC office and available most weekends. My husband and I enjoy filling our free time walking and caring for dogs. He and I both will care for your beloved furry baby like it is our own. I’m available most weekdays after work and weekends with notice. I’m happy to follow any specific routines or house rules and will make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. From walks and feedings to baths, medication, and extra snuggles — I’ll treat your pet like part of the family!
“Samantha was great taking care of our dog. She’s so responsive to every message and we loved that we could set up a meet and greet before her check in! Our pup loved that he was able to get out while we were at work and I loved the thorough updates on how her visit went. We will definitely be using her for our future puppy needs! Thank you Samantha!!”
About: Hey, I’m Janelle. Some people call me Nelly. I’ve grown up around all types of dogs my whole life and love being around them. I just want to be an extra hand for anyone who needs someone reliable to watch or walk their pups.I really love being active and getting outside, so I'm always down to take your dogs out for a good walk or run to keep them entertained and get their energy out. I'm also totally happy to just hang out on the couch, brush them out, or give them some good belly rubs if they're more of a couch potato.I'll treat your dogs like they're my own. Let me know if you need any help! I’m currently working part-time and from home, so I have a flexible schedule that can work around yours if needed. I have zero responsibilities besides myself and others that I care about, and your pet can easily be another. Whether you need a midday check-in, a quick walk, or someone to hang out with them while you're at work, I have plenty of open windows to make it happen. I only watch pets at the client’s house, I don’t do any boarding at my own place. When I’m at your house, I just focus on keeping your pet’s routine exactly how they like it so they don't get stressed out. I'm always super careful about keeping doors locked and making sure no quick cats or dogs try to slip out past me. I'll follow whatever instructions you leave for food, walks, or medicine, and I’ll send you updates and pictures so you know everything is good.
“I am super grateful for Olivia! She is always on time and really works around my crazy schedule. I can always count on her last minute and my little guy loves her. She follows all instructions that’s given. Thanks so much Olivia! 🤗”
“Kurt walked Henry and Hudson every day for 6 weeks and was amazing with them. They are farm dogs most of the year and not perfect on a leash. But within a day or two with Kurt they became model citizens ! They looked forward to their time with him every day. Kurt was 100% reliable and really a pleasure to see every day. 5 stars!”

Morgan was terrific! Communication was easy and very fast and she was very reliable. My dogs absolutely loved her and overall it was a fantastic experience. I loved the pictures she sent during the day and the updates. Just a tremendous experience all around. We’ll be using Morgan again for sure!
Lisa and Michael were a pleasure to work with! This was my first time using Rover, and they made me feel very comfortable. They came for a meet and greet prior, and then were very responsive and provided so many great pictures of my pup during his walk. My pup Marvin loved meeting them 😊

The average cost of Dog Walking in East Patchogue is $42 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $43 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 East Patchogue. 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 East Patchogue 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 East Patchogue. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
