About: I’ve been taking care of pets for as long as I can remember. I’ve had my dog for 12 years now who I trained myself and have been the primary care taker for. I’ve also had years of experience taking care of other people’s pets around the neighborhood and also for friends. I’ve had experiencing ranging from one day care to two weeks of care whether it be letting the dog out while the owners are away for the day or visiting a dog multiple times a day for two weeks to feed, walk, and give her love while her owners were on vacation. I currently work from home so i’m able to visit a pet before work and after work and am also able to stop in during the day as long as you’re not too far away from me! I can adapt to what your dog is used to and try to operate in your home the same way that you would by keeping the dog on the same schedule that they’re used to, walking them in a familiar area or letting them out in your yard.

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: Hi pet parents! 🐾 I’ve got plenty of love, energy, and snuggles to share with your furry family while you’re away. 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. Accountant by day, pet sitter by night—and I’m usually free on weekends too! I care for your pets in their favorite place—their home—so they can stick to their usual routine while you’re away. Every pet is unique, and I tailor my care to match their personality and needs. My mission is simple: lots of love, reliable service, and total peace of mind for you!

About: Hi I’m Debbie, I’m a lifelong Dog lover and a mom to Sophie my 7 year old Havanese. I know how important it is to know that your dog is safe, comfortable and care for when you’re not there. Every dog is different whether they like to have a stroll or a brisk walk I’ll follow your dog’s routine. Cats need attention too. I will stop in and make sure your kitty has everything it needs. Fresh water and food a clean litter box and playtime. You will also get a picture of your furry friend. They are not just pets they’re part of your family. I have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to make time for walks, drop-in visit feedings and giving your pet the attention needed when you’re not available. I enjoy making pet care part of my week by helping busy pet parents feel confident that their pets are being cared for. When caring for pets in their home it best to keep them on their routine. Follow the instructions given to me. Provide the attention and affection your pet needs while you’re away. Treat your home with respect. I will keep you updated with photos while you’re away.

About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I genuinely can’t imagine a home without animals in it! Today, my home is happily full with three dogs, a cat, and two little boys, so caring for others is pretty much second nature to me. Two of my dogs and my cat are rescues, which has also given me experience with animals who may need a little extra patience, reassurance, and time to feel comfortable. I’ve loved dogs of all breeds and sizes over the years—from Great Danes and English Bulldogs to Golden Retrievers—and I truly believe every dog has their own personality, quirks, and way of communicating what they need. I’m patient, attentive, affectionate, and always respectful of the routines and boundaries their families have established. As a pet parent myself, I also understand how much trust it takes to hand your dog’s leash over to someone else. I’ll treat your dog the way I would want someone to treat mine: with kindness, patience, attention, and lots of love. I originally joined Rover years ago simply because spending time with dogs sounded like the best job imaginable. All these years later, that really hasn’t changed. 🐾❤️ I currently work a hybrid schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks and drop-ins throughout the week. I especially love early morning and evening walks! As a lifelong dog owner with three dogs of my own, pet care is already a big part of my everyday routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always come first. I’ll follow your instructions and routines closely, keep dogs securely leashed on walks, and pay attention to their individual personality and needs. I’m also very respectful of clients’ homes and will treat both your pet and your space with the same care I’d want for my own.

About: My family has a total of 6 dogs ( 5 shihtzus and a german shephard) and I have taken care of them all since the age of 18, along with my 10 year old pup of course! Nothing is too "extra" for this dog mom. I wipe paws and tushies after every walk if you'd like! Picky eaters? I'll stand next to your pup, encourgae him/her to eat with baby talk if that's the only way they eat! I currently work from home full time and I'm available most weekends for walks and overnight stays. I love the company and the push to go outside for a walk!! For overnight stays, I have a clean studio apartment and they are allowed on my couch if comfortable! There is more than enough space for a crate as well. My street is pretty quiet for those pups who get scared of loud noises. No other dogs are living with me at the moment so all my attention is theirs!

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!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Farmingdale is $22 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $33 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 25,748 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 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 , 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 Farmingdale 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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Farmingdale. 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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
