“Katharine is truly the best dog walker and pet sitter we could ask for! She’s incredibly reliable, flexible, and trustworthy, and it’s clear she has a genuine love and compassion for animals. We always feel completely at ease knowing our pets are in her care. She’s been our regular walker for our senior dog, Lacey, and Katharine is always patient, sweet, and attentive with Lacey’s needs. It means so much to know Lacey is being cared for by someone who understands her pace and personality. Katharine also makes sure our cat gets plenty of love whenever she stops by! We even rely on her to give our cat an oral medication when we’re out of town. She consistently goes above and beyond for us and our pets, whether it’s adjusting her schedule, checking in with thoughtful updates, or giving a little extra care when needed. We feel so lucky to have found her and couldn’t recommend her more highly!”
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
“I was in a bind, last minute and ashley was able to help me out! Thank you so much and boo, our old guy..loved his walk!! Ashley let me know hiw long he was able to walk for, what he did and pictures! Peace of mind to boot!!”
“Lisa and Michael were such a joy. It was clear Wilson absolutely adored their time together. He looked forward to seeing them everyday. They both were extremely reliable, on time and can tell they love your pet! I will absolutely be using them again when I go away.”
About: An all animal lover - lived on a horse farm for 19 years, along with chickens, dogs, cats, and a pig or two. I have owned two Great Danes, a Blue Heeler, a Shiba Inu, a two Corgis. I am prior certified nurse assistant, and mother of two. Compassionate and kind in a professional manner. Energetic and athletic. Caters to all animal care needs. I work well with excited, jumpy dogs. Full time. Hours may vary depending on availability. Time blocks beginning between 9:30-10am. Typical time blocks end between 3-3:30pm. Overnights begin at 7pm-7am. All time blocks and services may be scheduled and modified for your dogs specific needs Especially attentive to pet parents routine’s, walking routes, preferred leads/harness, allergies, medications, and puppy care if needed. Patience, trust, and safety are my top priorities.
About: I’ve grown up with pups both big and small. I have dog sat for a variety of families and have stayed overnight to watch their dogs and home. I have attention to detail and want to provide an environment of predictability and safety. I love dogs with all my heart and my hope is to take the burden off of families if they need someone to walk their dog. I work from home which is flexible. I can walk dogs before work, during my lunch break and after work. I love to be active and outside! I would care for pets in my clients home as I cannot have pets where I live. I have watched many dogs at various houses and also will clean and tidy up.
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs (and other animals!) for many years. Family, friends, and co-workers have relied on me to watch and care for their pets whether it’s walking, feeding, playing, even taking them to the vet. I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and ages, from senior bull mastiffs to pugs under a year old. There is no dog too big or too small because they’re all perfect to me. I’ve also found lost dogs and helped them return to their owners! I have experience caring for anxious dogs, blind dogs, deaf dogs, dogs with mobility issues, and dogs that require medication. Other animals I’ve taken care of include: cats, parrots, guinea pigs, fish, rabbits, and hamsters. Pets are so precious, they’re such an important source of joy in their family’s lives so it’s such a privilege to be trusted with their care!! :) Pet sitting is currently my full time job, so I have lots of time to give your animals the special care and attention they deserve! I have a fenced in yard which is perfect for dogs to run around in. I also have a car so I’m able to take dogs to the dog park or dog beaches nearby (if that’s something they would enjoy). At a client’s house I still follow any guidance/schedule given to me. In between I typically take the dog’s lead. I’m at their house so it’s important to me that I respect their space (and the clients above all)! I like to take their cues to make sure that their sense of routine isn’t disrupted.
About: I’ve been around dogs pretty much my entire life! I am the resident dog sitter of my friends and family, I’ve been dog/house sitting since I was probably 11-12 years old. Once I got my license, I would beg my friends to let me watch their dogs while they were on vacation! I also love taking dogs on walks! I walk my dogs daily, and I try to hike with my dogs 2-3 times a week depending on weather. We also frequent the dog park, which is the thing I most look forward to every week! I work pretty much full time at a professional theater, so my availability is week days during the morning/afternoon. I’m also around Monday and Tuesday nights. My dogs get plenty of love, affection and exercise. Since they are beagles, they get a bit clingy, so I try to be receptive to their needs! We play outside (in our fenced in yard), they have plenty of toys and then we try to finish off the day with a long walk.
“Thank you, Albert. I’m very grateful to know I can trust Bella to be with you during my long days away. It’s a relief and you’re so thoughtful with her! We are blessed to have you take care of our dog & give our family peace of mind when we get home.”

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!

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.

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.
