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.
“Kerry was a wonderful companion for our pup while we were away. She treated him like royalty and he was well taken care of. She followed all instructions and sent pictures of all her walks ! Thank you for being so great”
“Katharine was great with walking our dog Lacey. She got a nice walk and pets, and we got lots of pictures! Which is nice to see in the middle of a busy day at work. We will definitely be booking again.”
“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!”
“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.”
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.
“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”
“Lisa and Micheal are the most fantastic and reliable people. Our animals were treated with the highest level of care. They go above and beyond. They are very likable people.”
“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!”
“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: I love all animals, but I have a special place in my heart for dogs! I grew up with a family dog and have cared for many of my friends’ and family members’ pets over the past 10 years. I’ve also trained my own dog and love learning new tips and techniques to help pets thrive. Whether it’s a quick walk around the block or a long hike on the trails, I truly enjoy spending time outdoors with dogs. I’m also hoping that by dog sitting and walking, I’ll finally convince my husband that it’s time for us to adopt our own pup soon! 🐶❤️ I currently work Tues-Thurs full time in NYC office and available most weekends. My husband and I enjoy filling our free time walking and caring for dogs. He and I both will care for your beloved furry baby like it is our own. I’m available most weekdays after work and weekends with notice. I’m happy to follow any specific routines or house rules and will make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. From walks and feedings to baths, medication, and extra snuggles — I’ll treat your pet like part of the family!
“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.”
About: For the majority of my life, I have always had a dog in my possession! So I have always known how far my love and care for animals goes. I have watched my family’s dogs when they went on vacation and I’ve also walked a couple of dogs in my neighborhood. Now, my love and care for animals goes beyond measure. They are family, and should be treated as such! Which is why I plan on making sure I would treat your pets the same way you would if you were there! I will always plan to go above and beyond for your pets. I am not someone who does the bare minimum when it comes to taking care of animals. I love what I do and I have the passion for it. So I plan to do whatever I can to make sure that your pets are treated with the amount of love and care they deserve. I currently have 2 jobs, so I would just have to work with my schedule on what I can do! But it is something I am more than happy to do! Due to my living situation, I am unable to dog sit at my house. However, I would be able to find ways of travel to your home. I would make sure I was there with them for as long as you need, if not more! Plus I wouldn’t mind help getting a couple house things done while there if you needed. Just give me a list of what you want done and how you want it done and I know I’ll be able to help! I also can walk dogs if needed.

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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Holtsville on Rover is $24.42 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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 September 2026, there are 3,419 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:
- 91% 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.
