Jada was the best. She came every day on time to take out bully. She was responsible and kept me informed if anything was wrong with bully. She was sweet and caring to bully. I would recommend her to anyone and will definitely use her again in the future.

Ella is very knowledgeable and professional. She pays attention to detail, makes sure to get to know your pet and asks all the right questions to make you feel as if you’ve known her forever and fully trust her with your pet. Lukas very much enjoyed his walk and came back very happy! Thank you Ella!

About: I have experience caring for pets through both professional work and personal ownership. I currently provide dog walking and pet care through Wag!, where I’ve worked with dogs of different ages, sizes, and energy levels, including senior dogs and more active breeds. I’ve also had the opportunity to build trust with repeat clients by providing dependable, compassionate care. As a proud cat mom to two cats, I understand the importance of patience, routine, and recognizing each pet’s unique personality. In addition, I’ve volunteered with a cat rescue, where I cared for cats with a wide range of temperaments, cleaned enclosures, socialized cats, and administered oral and topical medications when needed. I also spent a year working at a family-owned pet store that specialized in dogs, cats, and exotic animals, giving me hands-on experience with daily animal care and pet wellness. My goal is to provide every pet with a safe, loving, and stress-free experience while giving pet parents peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. Since I also drive, I’m able to reliably travel to visits, walks, and drop-ins. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to each week. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I believe pets feel happiest in their own home, so I take the time to learn their schedule, feeding routine, exercise needs, and any special instructions before each visit. I always ensure doors, gates, and harnesses are secure, keep a close eye on your pet during walks and playtime, and treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll also provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

Diana was great with our Goldendoodle Clancy. They bonded at the meet and greet and he was very comfortable with her. She gave him a long walk, fed him and sent a ton of pictures. We have a new dog walker! Thank you Diana!

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: With a lifetime of experience caring for various types of pets, including cats, dogs, and birds, I am well-equipped to provide excellent pet care. My one year old dog is my pride and joy, and I have also cared for a six year old German shepherd mix and a quaker parrot named Tito. Friends and family have entrusted me with the care of their pets for years, relying on my responsible and loving nature to ensure their well-being in times of need. I am dedicated, trustworthy, and passionate about providing the best possible care for all furry and feathered friends. As a teacher with summers off, I have the flexibility and availability to dedicate my time to caring for others' pets. With my regular job on hold during the summer months, I can commit to providing reliable and attentive pet care services on most days. I value this opportunity to extend my passion for nurturing and teaching to the well-being of beloved pets, ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve while their owners are away. When caring for pets in the client's home, I prioritize creating a comfortable and familiar environment for the animals while their owners are away. I follow the established routines and instructions provided by the pet owners, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special requirements such as medication administration. I ensure the pets feel safe and secure in their own surroundings by providing them with companionship, playtime, and attention to keep them happy and engaged. Additionally, I maintain open communication with the pet owners to provide updates on their furry friends and address any concerns promptly. By offering personalized care in the client's home, I aim to provide peace of mind to pet owners knowing their beloved animals are in good hands while they are away.

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.

About: I have cared for animals ever since I was a little girl, have always had a dog in the house and would walk our neighbors dogs for fun every day. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, guinea pigs, lizards etc. I am currently at stay at home mom for my 2 young daughters. I’m looking to make some extra money and play with as many dogs as possible with a my free time. We have a fenced in yard large enough for all types of dogs to run and play in. We also have double gates for extra safety in the yard. Inside the house we have gates set up to block off the livingroom where we can limit your dog from having access to the front door when people are entering and exiting the home. We also have a guest room that can be used if your pet gets overwhelmed or nervous and needs some alone or quiet time

I was greatly impressed how the dogs took to her and happily all went for a long walk. I am so happy to have found her and can rest easy knowing they are in capable hands, when needed.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have been caring for them most of my life, so being attentive to their needs comes naturally to me. I treat every pet like they’re my own; making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and pay close attention to routines, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, or just giving them the extra affection they’re used to. I’ll always keep you updated with photos and check-ins for peace of mind. I’m especially patient with shy or anxious dogs and take the time to help them feel at ease. My fiancé, Eric has also always grown up with dogs and was responsible for taking care of dogs and his cat while growing up and they all lived will into their senior years. He is great with more high energy and active dogs, going on long walks, or runs and hikes with them. I work full time where I commute Monday-Friday. Weekends I’m home. My Fiancé also works full time but he gets out a little earlier than I do. For weekend stays we are available to give your furry family the most attention and care. If there is need during the week I’m usually away from home for 10 hours during the day including my commute time to and from work. We will walk and feed them before we leave in the morning and as soon as either of us gets home will do the same and then again before bedtime. In our home, pets are cared for in a calm, safe environment. We live on the second floor of a house in a suburban neighborhood with sidewalks, which allows for safe, structured walks. While we don’t have direct yard access, we make sure dogs get regular walks, exercise, and attention. I also have a senior cat who is naturally shy and takes time to warm up, so I’m very understanding of pets who may be anxious or need a slower, more gentle approach. In a client’s home, I focus on maintaining your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or quiet time. I’m attentive to their behavior and needs, and I always aim to make them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away.

I reached out to Abigail super last minute as I had to take a last minute trip and she didn’t hesitate to help. She walked Nala three days straight, followed all instructions, and kept me updated the whole time. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Nala was in such caring hands while I was away in Florida. I will absolutely book again!!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Farmingdale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Farmingdale 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 25,892 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Farmingdale. 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 Farmingdale. 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 Farmingdale.

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 Farmingdale. On Rover:

  • 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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 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.
