Dog Walkers in Locust Valley, NY

About: After unfortunately having to give away my Morkie (Maltese Yorkie mix) puppy a few years ago due to housing arrangements, I treat everyone else’s dog as if they were my own! I will make sure your dog feels as comfortable with me as he/she would feel with you! I never get bored of playing and I definitely won’t run out of energy as long as your dog doesn’t! I get along with relaxed dogs (especially if they like to cuddle), but I also enjoy playing with high-energy dogs because I never stop moving myself. I love the outdoors and being active so I wouldn’t mind spending time playing outside or running with your dog while on a walk! Side note - I also love cats (I have 3), and I can care for them as well! 😊 I’m currently working from home full-time with a flexible schedule and hours, leaving me with an open schedule to care for your furry friends. Send me all inquiries and I will try to make it work. I live in a rental house without access to the backyard, but I live just 10 minutes walking distance from a park that I am very familiar with. I also have two cats who are very friendly and docile. They have been around dogs before and are unbothered. I am also open to playing with your pets indoor at your house, outdoors in a housing community, or even bringing them to a park!

About: I have my own golden retriever that I care for and have lived and cared for a golden doodle while in college for 3 years. I make sure dogs are well taken care of on walks and have enough enrichment time. I am currently available full time to walk dogs/do drop in services. I am also available for last minute requests such as walking or drop in services. I have a very friendly golden retriever that can accompany your dog on walks or for play dates during drop in visits only if requested. If not requested than I will walk your dog alone and come for drop in visits alone.

“Jessica is an exceptional dog walker. She took such good care of Buster. She was on time and caring and kept in communication. I highly recommend her.”

About: Tommy and I are both experienced dog and cat sitters who have two cats of our own. We both grew up with dogs of all sizes and have been trusted by friends, family, and other Rover users to care for their furry family members. Most of the time it will just be me (Paige) but sometimes Tommy’s work schedule allows for him to come with! We cannot wait to meet and love your pets. As cat owners, pet care is a part of our daily lives (and sometimes 3am thanks to zoomies). Whether we are visiting our families or taking care of someone else’s pet, we make sure to spend plenty of time with the pet family members beyond their basic care. We are beyond confident in our ability to keep your fur family member safe, happy, and healthy while they are in our care. Whether they need to be crated after a walk, or they need to get the zoomies out, we are prepared!

About: While caring for two big doodles of her own, Madie has spent the last few years on Rover as a dedicated and excited walker! As a spunky Fashionista, and Musical Theatre major from Atlanta GA, she’s outgoing and works well with any breed, age, household, and attitude! Madie wants to get to know your fluffy friend next! I’m currently in school at LIU in New York and come home to Georgia for breaks. I am able to care for your fluffy friends about 5 days a week! Including walking, playing, feeding and more!! If your pet is home alone and needs some playtime I am available to come hangout with them and maybe even bring my own dogs for some company!

“Nicholas walked my corgi, Santiago, while I was out of town for a couple of days. He went above and beyond and I would highly recommend him to walk/care for your pup. When Santiago met Nicholas he was immediately able to make a connection with him and I felt confident that he would be a good walker for Santiago. Santiago can be stubborn and Nicholas was patient and flexible with Santiago’s needs. Santiago can’t go up and down the stairs and Nicholas was really understanding and carried him up and down the stairs for his walks. Nicholas kept me up to date on Santiago’s walks and sent pictures which I really appreciated. I also just appreciated Nicholas enthusiasm and sense of humor when dealing with Santiago’s silliness during walks. I would highly recommend Nicholas to care for your pup.”

About: With over a decade of hands-on experience, including extensive work at a rescue barn and shadowing at a veterinary hospital throughout my life, I bring a wealth of knowledge in caring for a variety of beloved pets. My expertise spans from horses to dogs, cats, and even exotic reptiles and birds. Since the age of 10, I have been walking, feeding, bathing, and caring for neighbors' and friends' pets. These responsibilities have fostered a deep understanding of their unique needs and preferences. When pets are with me, their comfort and needs come first, and I ensure to care for them in the best way possible. I work part-time, allowing me plenty of availability for your pet. With adequate notice, I can come to your house or have your pet come to mine any day of the week. Additionally, I can visit in the morning and at night as needed. At home, I share my life with two dogs and a cat, all of whom enjoy the spacious comfort of our expansive backyard and the security of being crate trained. This personal connection fuels my passion for ensuring every pet under my care receives not just attention, but genuine affection and tailored care to keep them happy, healthy, and content.

“Kaylee was great! She’s super responsive to messages, my dog warmed up to her quickly when we met, and I had peace of that he was well taken care of while I was away. I definitely recommend her!”

About: Hi, I'm Natalia and I love animals. I have grown up with my own dogs and cats since I was about 8 years old. Even birds too. Taking care of them is taking care of your family. So I will be sure your pet(s) have everything they need while in my care. And will be treated with the same love, kindness, and affection as I do with my dogs and cats. I will always check if the pavement outside is too hot for their paws on sunny days and if it's also too cold/salted on other days to avoid harm to their paws. I do not have experience with newborn puppies, but I am a quick learner if given a chance. I'm currently a freelancer, so my schedule is flexible daily. Any time of day throughout the seasons, I'm available to aid in caring for the pets in your lives. While I'm not accepting other people's pets within my home, I'm open to caring for your pets in their safe space. Just like us, they have a routine, which I would be happy to learn and follow.

My mother bred Poodles when I was growing up and I currently own a delicious 'Ivory White' Yellow Labrador Retriever named Eliza who is in fact a valued tem-member here at LIFPC Barbara Why I love dog sitting I grew up in a breeding environment. My mother was a long-time Poodle breeder and from the moment I could walk I was involved! Without giving my age away, I can say that was close to 5o years ago! About my yard We have well over 2 acres of property with a large fenced-in play area and smaller separate enclosures as well. This format allows for either controlled pet interaction or complete segregation. Owners who utilize crates in their homes can bring it with all the furnishings to make their pet feel completely at home. Owners whose pets are socialized and enjoy a 'free-range' environment are happily accommodated. My experience administering medication Prior to going professional as a pet-sitter I worked for many years in a Vet's office close to my home. From client interaction to assisting on operations I have done it all. Medical diets, injections, geriatric pets, etc. are no problem, and are in fact, my specialty.

About: Hi my name is Tay! I’ve cared for animals of all kinds—dogs, cats, ducks, even horses—since I was young. I had a Lhasa Apso for 14 years who was truly my best friend, so I know what it’s like to love a pet like family. I’ve also pet sat for friends, neighbors, and family over the years and now care for three former stray cats I took in myself. I’m comfortable with senior pets, shy or nervous animals, and those with specific routines or medical needs. Whether it’s a playful walk, a calm cuddle, or some patient care for an anxious pet—I’m here to show up with love, respect, and consistency every time. I’m currently in grad school for social work and also completing an internship, but I make it a priority to keep my schedule as flexible as possible. I love working pet care into my routine and can often adjust my availability around classes and other commitments. If there’s a way I can make it work to care for your pets, I’ll do my best to be there I care for every pet like they’re my own. I’ll always make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable—whether we’re hanging out at your place or going for a walk. I’ll keep you updated with plenty of messages and cute pictures so you never have to wonder how your fur baby is doing. Their happiness and well-being is my top priority
