“She is so patient and caring, I had to scheduled an emergency walk because my dog was left alone by a family member that was supposed to stay with him, he met her for the first time without me being home and she patiently tried to warm him up, he is too territorial but she let him in the back yard and he used the bathroom. I cannot thank her enough !”

I have over 20 years of experience caring for animals and have been passionate about their well-being since childhood. Caring for animals isn't just my profession—it's truly part of who I am. Throughout my life, I have cared for a wide variety of animals, providing feeding, grooming, bathing, exercise, companionship, and lots of love. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive individualized attention, compassion, and exceptional care while you're away. I understand that every pet is unique. Before each booking, I take the time to learn your pet's routines, preferences, health needs, and any specific instructions you may have. Building trust with both pets and their owners is extremely important to me. I respect that welcoming someone new into their home can be stressful for some animals, so I work patiently to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet enjoys belly rubs, ear scratches, playtime, or simply quiet companionship, they will always receive my undivided attention and care. I believe caring for animals is one of the greatest acts of service we can give to the world, and I would be honored to care for your furry family members. For more information about me and my work with animals, please visit my Facebook page: Natalie Marie and send me a friend request or message. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! 🐾❤️ I enjoy the outdoors, so if your dog needs some activity i can provide that. Otherwise, I’m happy to take it on long walks, play outside, or give it some loving belly rubs/ear scratches/pets! After the ground rules are laid out, I like to get to know the pet and let the pet get to know me. A stranger coming into its domain can be a lot for some pets, and I respect that. Therefore, I want to make sure the pet (and owner) know I’m a friend and can be trusted.
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!
About: I’ve always had a love for animals and enjoy making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I understand that every dog has a different personality and routine, so I take the time to follow each owner’s instructions closely. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or just a calm companion, I’ll make sure they feel loved and cared for. I work from home, so pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. Since I’m home often, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods of time, and I can help keep them on their normal schedule so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. For house sitting, I’m also able to bring my work equipment with me, which allows me to stay with your pet while still working remotely and giving them consistent care and companionship. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to keep their routine and environment as normal and comfortable as possible. I carefully follow all instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications if needed, crate routines, and any house rules. I always make sure doors, gates, leashes, and fenced areas are secure, and I pay close attention during walks and playtime to keep pets safe. I’m respectful of every client’s home and will treat both your pet and your space with care. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you feel comfortable while you’re away.
About: Growing up around animals and farm life, caring for them has always come naturally to me. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I am great with high energy pups who could use a good run and also your calm and cuddly furry babies that just want curl up on the couch with you. I treat every pet with genuine care, patience, and attention, always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind knowing their favorite family member is in reliable, capable hands and receiving the best care possible. I am a college student that is home for the summer full time currently. So I have plenty of time to care for your furry friends. I am looking to board anytime of day, and am free throughout the day from early morning to late evening for day care, drop ins, or walks. All week days are good for me. I have access to a dog park and great walking spots for long walks. I have ample space for boarding your pups overnight. I am available for frequent potty breaks and adventures outside. I am more than able to provide walks and exercise on a large scale from calm scenic walks to high energy runs.
About: I offer reliable and loving care for your pets while you’re away or at work. Whether you’re going on vacation or just need a little help. I ensure that your furry family will be comfortable, safe, and happy in the comfort of my home, or yours. I actually put my heart into this and I try to go above and beyond on caring for your pet! Pets are walking angels!! My services include daily walks and exercise to keep your pets active and healthy, feeding and administering medications if needed, playtime and companionship, regular updates and photos so you can relax and focus on what you’re doing. I treat each pet like family plus only work with one family at a time!!! I’m dedicated to making sure your pets routine stays normal as possible and they feel loved in your absence. Feel free to contact me for more information or to book a meet and greet. I had my soul dog for 21 years and my soul cat for 18 years so I get that pets are true family. I have the flexibility for visits to check in, walks throughout the day, and also with notice I can provide boarding which will be one client at a time. I also have plenty experience with cats. There are no current pets at my home so I can provide undivided attention. 🐾 I live in a spacious, well kept condo, and there is plenty of room for furry friends and there are no other pets living here at this time. One client at a time.
“Absolutely Amazing!!!! Jenna is so kind to my crazy dog and he calms down immediately when she walks in. She sent pictures and updates from every walk. I felt very comfortable having her in my home and with my precious furbaby. Highly recommend!!”
About: Animal lover since the day I was born! I have a 5 year old cat named Lilly who is extremely friendly with other pets so I can bring pets to my house. I worked at New York’s Best Pets on Dyckman 200 Street before it burned down unfortunately and there I took care of feeding, grooming and playing with the pets as well as customer service. I’ve taken care of many dogs in the past, from walking to dog sitting. I have given prescribed medicine to dogs when they needed it and have trimmed their hair when asked to, as well as given them a full shower and a good groom. I live next to Raynor Beach Country Park and I love going out for walks and runs so you know your dogs will always have a good time and stay fit! I’ve been taking care of pets most of my life and I want to give pets the best experience they’ve ever had. I’m athletic so I have plenty of energy to burn. With me, I can guarantee your pets will have a great time and you’ll be satisfied with how they’ve been taken care of!
About: I’m a total animal lover with over 5 years of experience caring for dogs and cats—and I’ve got a full house myself with 4 pups and 4 kitties, so I truly get how much love (and personality!) our furry friends bring to our lives. I’m super flexible with scheduling and can check in on your pet as often as every 2 hours—or even more if needed! I’m also totally comfortable giving medications and handling any special needs your pet might have. I love keeping pet parents in the loop, so whether you prefer texts, photos, videos, or even a quick phone or video call, I’m happy to provide regular updates to give you peace of mind. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and totally loved while you’re away!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Islandia on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of July 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 .

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 Islandia. 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 Islandia.

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 Islandia. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% 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 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.
