“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!”
“Kerry is amazing at taking care of Honey. Since our dog is on the older side now, she’s less active and Kerry will walk her and then sit with her a while just giving her love. She responds to messages within a few minutes, and goes above and beyond. I highly recommend her for your fur babies!”
“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.”
“Daniela was so sweet and gentle with my dog who was a little bit timid at first!! We are so glad we chose her and trusted her with our fur baby! We will absolutely be using her again she is amazing”
“Takes the dog on nice long walks as requested and was very conscientious of how the dog was behaving and whether or not she was eating her food etc. Katharine went above and beyond to hand feed her when she wasn’t eating! Will definitely be calling Katharine again. Thank you!”

I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and other pets as both a pet owner and a dedicated caregiver. I understand the importance of providing a safe, loving, and structured environment where pets feel comfortable and secure. I follow feeding schedules carefully, ensure fresh water is always available, and administer medication when needed, always following the owner’s instructions closely. Pets in my care are treated like family. I pay close attention to their behavior, routines, and individual needs, making sure they receive proper exercise, affection, and supervision at all times. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care so both pets and their owners can feel at ease. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate quality time to caring for your pets. lam available on weekdays and weekends, and I can easily adjust my routine to meet your pet's specific needs.

“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.”
“Maureen is amazing! Very responsible, caring, and most important loving to my dog. I’ve noticed a wonderful change in my Shmoopy since Maureen started walking her. She’s happier and more excited now that she has someone as great as Maureen coming by to walk her and play with her. Words can’t describe how great Maureen has been with and for my Shmoopy. I highly recommend her! She’s truly one of a kind. Thank you!”
About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. Growing up, I lived with two tuxedo cats who completely stole my heart. As I got older, I took on many of their daily care responsibilities, including feeding them, cleaning their litter boxes, playing with them, and making sure they felt loved and comfortable. Today, my wife and I are proud pet parents to two black cats. In addition to caring for cats, I have experience watching a toy poodle puppy under one year old. My responsibilities have included taking her outside for regular bathroom breaks, supervising walks, engaging her in play and exercise, teaching basic tricks and commands, reinforcing good behavior, and helping her work through separation anxiety. Caring for a young puppy taught me the importance of consistency, positive reinforcement, patience, and attentiveness to a pet's individual needs. Whether caring for cats or dogs, I am committed to providing a safe, loving, and reliable environment where pets feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I understand that every animal has a unique personality, and I strive to give each pet the same level of attention and affection that I would want for my own. i work part time in the mornings and am available most days after 1pm. I am a doctoral student at Stony Brook University, so I am flexible to watch your pup or kitty any time in the afternoons/evenings. If needed, I can do an early morning stop by at 6:30AM prior to heading to work. in my clients home, I will be respectful of property, taking off shoes before entering the house, cleaning up any messes that the animal/myself may create, ensuring the animal has food, water, litter box, toys, etc. accessible, and to lock up the house, windows, and any gates prior to leaving the home. I will always accommodate the clients requests. In my home, I have multiple floors to separate my animals from the animal(s) coming into my home. I also have a fully fenced in, large backyard for a dog to run around in. We have a home security system as well to ensure safety.
“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”
“Ashley has been very reliable and communicates very well. She’s great with my dog Captain going beyond her expectations. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take care of their pup!”

I pay close attention to detail such as to where the dog or cat is allowed, how long the pet needs to be walked/played with, what they are fed, and if they require medications. I hope to gain your pets trust and love while creating a bond with them and ensuring they’re happy and healthy!
“My dog Chloe is usually avoids anyone new in our home. Noelle has such a calm deminor that Chloe took to her right away! Noelle has been fantastic, very caring and super responsive. She also takes beautiful photographs and leaves very detailed notes. I highly recommend her!”

About: I have experience pet sitting and caring for many different dogs, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I truly love dogs and enjoy spending time with them, whether that means going on walks, playing, or just giving them company and attention. I also have a golden retriever of my own, so I understand the responsibility and care that goes into making sure pets are happy, safe, and well cared for. I know every dog has different needs, and I always do my best to make them feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a calmer environment, I’ll make sure they get the care and attention they deserve. 🐾 I currently work part-time only a few days a week, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets. Since I’m home from college for the summer, I have availability throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, and giving pets lots of attention. I always make sure to plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for so they get the time, care, and consistency they deserve. I’m also happy to communicate and work with owners to make sure their pet’s routine is followed as closely as possible! I provide walks and drop-in visits only, so pets stay comfortable in their own home. I always follow the owner’s instructions, make sure pets are safe, cared for, and get plenty of attention, exercise, and bathroom breaks during visits.
About: I have a passion for working with dogs (and cats), especially in training with them. I have 10+ years experience of working, riding, and training horses! No matter the age or size, I’ll be there to care for them when you need. Even if they have special needs or quirks, I’ll always accommodate I’m currently in-between jobs, but looking for something full time in the early morning, so I can prioritize my passion for a career with dogs! Weekends are available as well, and I will always try and work something out! No matter the size or age of your pet, I will always try my very best to accommodate! The two cats I have at home are harness trained so I can still provide them outside time. I am very willing to help at home with keeping within the animals needs.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Holtsville
handles my senior dog extremely well and carefully...She even started doing something that i had never thought of.....Kerry is always on time and if ever an issue reaches out right away to let me know even when its the littliest thing. I was very hesitant about trusting my dog with a complete stranger for the first time ever and her caring work eased my concerns right away...will use her again when her situation allows it and definitely would recommend her when she is back to work
Amanda has come for my dog twice so far. He's a little bit anxious and she has been so good to him. She keeps him out on his walk for the whole visit, so he gets a good amount of exercise with her! Additionally, Amanda is very warm and sweet. Highly recommend her!
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!
Amanda is so sweet and perfect with our dog and cat. The dog can be quite nervous, but her calm demeanor meant that they became fast pals. Amanda walked him a bit longer than she had to and lavished us with tons of adorable photos. She asked thorough questions to make sure that his medication was properly dispensed and about his routine to make sure he was behaving normally. I cannot recommend her more!

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 July 2026, there are 3,467 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Holtsville. 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 Holtsville. 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 Holtsville.

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 Holtsville. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
