About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life of all sizes. Very patient and friendly with all fur babies. In our home they are apart of my family. I am currently a stay at home wife so my schedule is very flexible and I am very happy to make appointments to make sure they get the attention your fur babies deserve! I have experience with dogs beings off leashes trained as well as the ones that constantly need leashes so they don’t get into trouble. Playing in the yard or just butt scratches are a staple!

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have years of hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets. I’ve owned and cared for multiple dog breeds, including Shih Tzus, Pit Bulls, and Great Danes, and have experience caring for several dogs at once. I’ve also cared for cats, ferrets, rabbits, fish, chinchillas, and even parrots! Taking care of animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy. I’m comfortable with feeding, providing fresh water, cleaning up after pets, walks, playtime, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m patient, attentive, responsible, and understand that every animal has its own personality and needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own and want owners to feel confident knowing their pets are receiving loving and dependable care while they’re away. I currently work mornings, so I have afternoons, evenings, and select weekdays available for pet care. My schedule allows me flexibility for drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, walks, and extended sitting. I’m happy to coordinate with owners ahead of time to make sure their pets receive consistent attention and care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, routines, medications, and special needs. I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of attention. I respect every home, keep doors and gates secure, and provide updates so owners can feel comfortable while they’re away.

About: I truly believe pets are more than just animals—they are family. I provide loving, dependable, and personalized care so your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I take the time to get to know each pet’s unique personality, routine, and needs, whether they are a playful puppy, an energetic companion, or a senior pet needing a little extra patience and attention. My goal is not only to care for your pets, but to give them the love, companionship, and reassurance they deserve while giving you peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m able to provide consistent, dependable care throughout the week. I prioritize making time for each pet’s individual feeding, exercise, playtime, and companionship needs. I’m flexible with scheduling and can work with your pet’s established routine to help keep them comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I’m committed to providing attentive care and regular updates throughout each visit. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. When visiting a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely, respect their space and belongings, and maintain their pet’s normal routines as much as possible. I make sure pets have access to fresh water, secure surroundings, and appropriate supervision during each visit. I also understand the importance of keeping doors, gates, and other entry points secure. My goal is to provide trustworthy, responsible care so both pets and their owners feel comfortable and confident while they are away.

“This is the second time I have used Brittany. The first meeting we had to see if she was a fit, she brought a checklist and asked great questions. I appreciated the attention to detail. This was the first time my nearly 13 year old Labrador had been apart from me for a full week. He did great, but it was only because of her commitment to take care of him.”

About: With a Yorkie and Pomeranian in my family, I have been well equipped to take care of any pup! I love these furry guys and understand how important it is to have quality time away with quality care equipped for our little guys. I am currently a student at the University of Houston and am incorporating pet care into my schedule. I truly make time to make sure my clients pets are cared for. My Mondays-Friday afternoons are relatively free but please reach out and I can be flexible! In my own home, we have a free space for our dogs but keep any dangerous food or objects out of site as they have very sensitive stomachs. Remaining attentive with my little guys is very important as they get into trouble when they are not in sight. I am receptive & understanding to any requests needed for any home or service.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Hempstead

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 1,675 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Hempstead. 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 Hempstead. 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 Hempstead 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 Hempstead. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
