About: Your pets are in great care ,while you’re enjoying your time away your dogs will be in safe hands living their best lives having fun at the beach. I will keep in contact throughout their stay, send photos and let you know how they are getting on. I have had the same clients for 5 years every week. I’m a stay at home mum, with all the fun. I moved from England to west gilgo 5 years ago. They will have company and walks throughout the whole day and the comfort of my home through the night. When my parents come to visit also throughout the year they get extra love. Walks throughout the day, fresh water is checked often, always plenty of love and comfort to give. I treat them as if they are my own, I have had dogs my whole life up until last year. I follow instructions that are given. Have to be child friendly

About: Hi! I’m Hallie. I am a lifelong dog lover who understands how important it is to trust someone with your pets. I grew up around dogs and currently have two of my own who are basically my whole world. Because I’m a dog parent myself, I know how much care, patience, and attention each dog deserves. I’m very active and love long walks, beach walks, and getting outside, so your dog will get plenty of exercise and attention. I’m comfortable with different personalities and energy levels, including dogs who may be a little shy, reactive, or still learning the ropes. One of my own dogs is a rescue, so I’m very patient and experienced with dogs who need a little extra reassurance and confidence building on walks. Safety and communication are really important to me, so I always make sure dogs feel secure, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to send updates, photos, and videos so you can feel at ease knowing your pup is having a great time. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, some company during the day, or extra attention while you’re away, I’ll treat them like one of my own! Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine because I have two dogs of my own. My days revolve around walks, exercise, and making sure they’re happy and well cared for, so adding additional walks or drop-in visits fits very naturally into my schedule. I’m active, reliable, and love spending time outside with dogs of all energy levels. I care for every pet like they’re my own. I follow their normal routine for feeding, walks, and playtime so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m attentive, patient, and always prioritize safety, and I’m happy to send updates and photos so you know your pet is in good hands.

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.

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: 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: I have experience with puppies (basic training, routines) and senior dogs (gentle care, medications), and I treat every pet like my own while keeping owners updated and worry free. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I work from home, allowing me to give dogs plenty of attention, supervision, and frequent breaks throughout the day. I also occasionally babysit for a friend nearby, which is easy to balance with pet care and never takes me far from the home. This flexibility lets me maintain consistent routines, playtime, and quality care for every pet. I follow each pet’s usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I provide plenty of supervision, playtime, walks, and affection, along with feeding and any special care needed. I keep the environment safe and calm, respect house rules, and share regular updates so owners always know how their pet is doing. 🐾

About: I have been very passionate about animals and the environment since I was 3 years old! I grew up around so many animals and it encouraged me to pursue a career in veterinary medicine. At a very young age I was introduced the opportunity to petsit for dogs and cats/kittens in my family. Later around 8 years ago I was able to start working in a more professional manner and cared for not only cats, kittens, and dogs but birds, different reptiles, and some aquatic pets! All these experiences are amazing and they just motivate my love and passion for animals. I have worked with pets of all ages as well as many with special diets and medications. Aside from my experience, I am a very energetic person! I love to go on hikes, runs, bikes, you name it! You can rest assured that your fur babies will get all the love, care, and enjoyment with me! I am an undergraduate student and I am currently a vet technician/assistant practicing with a couple clinica , which allows me plenty of time to care for your lovely fur babies! My availability is very flexible right now. I do have a large fenced yard! I have 1 energetic doggie named Milo and 2 cats named Blue and Maya Papaya. Milo does have social anxiety, so I will keep separate in order for both parties to feel comfortable. And for my cats they are very soft, kind, and friendly with everyone including dogs. You can rest assured that your baby is in great hands, as my top priority is their trust, comfort, and health!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Gilgo Beach

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of June 2026, there are 21,904 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Gilgo Beach. 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 Gilgo Beach. 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 Gilgo Beach.

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 Gilgo Beach. 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.
