About: Most of my experience comes from dog-sitting and I have dog sat different ages and breeds! Dogs are such lovable companions and I love taking care of someone’s best friend. Nothing in the world means more to me than a pet’s care and happiness and it definitely shows with who an animal is with! I aspire to be someone your companion(s) Trust and are comfortable with being around! I also wouldn’t mind watering plants if needed 😊 Pet care would be my entire week because I would be doing this full time! Weeks, weekends and sometimes holidays will definitely work for me. I know how it feels to have to trust someone with your baby or babies and the anxiety of if they’re in good hands. My goal is to give you the confidence that they are in the best care and your home is better than you left it!

About: My parents have taken care of 40 cats, and counting, in the last 28 years. This included four dogs that questioned their own relationship to these critters. It’s safe to say I’ve experienced the wide range, just from family care alone, to care for your pet. In addition, I’ve worked as a Kennel Technician in a boarding facility and have customer experience with high-risk canines and environment training sessions. I’m openly available. Weekends will specify accordingly and I can accommodate! Check my calendar for more information. If you need another time, then let me know! Knowing your canine can trust their handler is important, no matter the situation. In my zone of safety, I ensure clients understand that I’m wanting a safe time too.

About: My journey with pets began at the age of 8 when I welcomed my first furbaby, Fifi, a miniature schnauzer, into my life. Over the past 13 years, she's been my constant companion, now a cherished senior at 13. A dozen years later, I welcomed Letty, an energetic American bully, into our family. Letty's love for play contrasts beautifully with Fifi's penchant for sleep, offering the best of both worlds. My experience extends beyond pet ownership; having worked at an animal clinic, I'm adept at a range of caregiving tasks from cleaning and feeding to administering medication, injections, and grooming needs like nail clipping and anal gland care. I currently work for Amazon in the HR department, I work 4 days out of the week (SUN-WED) from 6:30am to 5:00pm. I am flexible so please let me know what is needed so we could work something out. I offer pet sitting services with a fenced yard and two furry companions to keep your pets company. I am flexible and can accommodate any special needs your pets may have. Prior to their stay, I request a list of your pet's likes and dislikes to ensure their comfort. Additionally, I prioritize exercise, provide nail trims if necessary, and ensure they always have access to water and a comfortable environment. I use to work in an animal clinic for 2 years so if any medication is needed to be given or injections, I am more than happy to do it. Your pet's well-being is my top priority.

About: I live on a farm in Coffee City. I take care of our horses, a pot bellied pig, chickens, 5 barn cats, 1 house cat, and 2 dogs. I feed our animals daily. I have always loved animals! I am an elementary teacher and I have the summer off. Since I no longer have children at home, I would love to have something worthwhile to do during this free time. I have a cat who lives inside our home. I’ve had her for 7 years. She is fed and watered daily and I am used to cleaning a litter box. She is part of our family.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life, and love my job as a veterinary technician! I’d be happy to care for yours too! I currently work 3 days a week for 14 hours a day. So the other 4 days are fully available for any kind of pet care needed! My job also offers boarding during the day, so if it lands on a day that I work, your baby is more than welcome to come to work with me and getting all the love from me and my wonderful colleagues. I think personal play time with animals is the most important time for every baby! Helping pets live a happy and healthy life is my main priority whether that includes walks, play time, cuddling and hanging out, or offering them comfort when their owners are away.

About: My name is Jessica and I am a graduate from Tarleton State University with a degree in Biomedical Science and a Pre-Vet concentration. I was raised on a farm consisting of many different animals such as sheep, goats, horses, mules, chickens dogs and cats! I clearly love all types of animals and work very well with them. I’m super patient and I’m experienced in handling aggressive/anxious dogs and even those spicier cats. All my life I’ve lived with at least 3 dogs at a time. Currently I care for 5 dogs in total - I live in a ranch - so unfortunately I won’t be able to care for any here at my home. However, I am committed to providing you the best service and ease of mind when caring for your pets anywhere else! I currently work at Equine Veterinary Services in Terrell and plan on going to vet school in the next year - animals are my everything. You can set your worries aside knowing that I’m dedicated to making sure your pets are safe, healthy and happy in my care! While I’m at a clients home, I make sure I know the boundaries set and the reassure them that I am only there for taking care of their pup. I work at vet clinic in Terrell, with a varying work schedule, but I will 100% let you be aware of when I am or am not available to watch your pet! I will do my very best to have my calendar updated with my current work schedule as soon as I know it! While your pet is in my care, at my house, I will do my absolute best to keep their routine the same as if they were at their own home. I have a front yard that they can stretch their legs and run around. When I’m staying at my clients home I will always treat it with respect and professionalism. I will update you if anything happens (messes, something breaking, injury, etc.) and I always take pictures of your pets to send while y’all are away!

About: With around 10 years of experience taking care of many dogs of all types of breeds and sizes I have loved this line of work more than anything and the overall satisfaction of seeing the dogs and having them light up when they see me lights me up. There’s nothing more that I love than giving these amazing animals a great life or great experience! Many friends and family know me as being a caregiver to animals of all types and sizes but with dogs being where I shine best. I am currently just working part time buying & selling so I have all the flexibility In The world to make and work with pretty much anyones schedule and help them care for their animals whenever they are unable or busy. I currently have a large fenced in yard with 2 dogs of my own but at this time pet care at my home will have to be a case by case thing otherwise I will take care of your dog at your home and care for them as if they were my own pet. I have no problem crating them either if that is what necessary or preferred

About: I have had pets my entire life. I’ve always wanted to be a veterinarian and live on a huge farm with as many animals as I can imagine. While this is not my overall goal job, it would be a dream to be able to care and spend my days with dogs and/or cats of any & every kind! When I was about 15 I volunteered at the SPCA for about a year and a half, along with caring & sitting my own animals that have included cats, dogs, rabbits, chickens, and even reptiles! Just about anything you can name to be a house pet, I’ve had and/or cared for/sitted! What you’re looking for in a sitter is what I can provide! I’m open to just about any and every animal, any time of the day, whenever you need it, I’ll be there! I am in school part time but still have plenty of time to play with your fur babies! I have two dogs of my own and care for them on an hourly basis so a couple extra pups is no big deal! I am only in school two days a week and am available full time other than that! I have a large fenced yard and two sweet girl dogs that can keep your pup company! I can also crate your dog if needed! If we are in your home, I will do every part of your normal routine & more to ensure your pup feels safe & comfortable!

About: I have had dogs in my family all my life. I worked at a pet boarding center called Circle Star Pet Resort and will always take cute pictures of your fur babies! I used to foster dogs, but I get too attached to those babies so I couldn’t do it anymore :( I have helped out with bathing and taking care of some of the top show dogs in our country which has been the best opportunity of my life! Due to that my prices are a bit higher but I have the experience! I have a dog myself who is the sweetest baby ever! He loves it when I bring home a friend so they will have plenty of playtime together!

About: Even when I was little I’ve had a connection with animals. I’ve always been able to connect with the hard headed animals or the animals that have lost their trust in humanity. Animals seem to trust me, maybe not right away but they learn quickly. So if you’re leaving them for a bit and they need a potty break or you are taking a vacation and need an animal sitter or my favorite, if you are getting up in miles on your life and need help caring for your faithful friend daily, contact me. I’m here for you and them! I am helping care for a family member that has dementia (I live with her), so working long days at a place of business does not fit into what my family members needs are. Being a pet sitter has afforded me the ability to be present in her life as her needs arise and change but also allows me to be of service to the voiceless. Animals have always had a soft spot in my heart, this is my way of giving back to them for the years of love they have shown me and us in the past. Not only do I care for your pets needs and try and think ahead for them, I also care for your needs. Collecting the mail, cleaning up accidents, keeping your house clean, this builds a trust that is unrivaled in and amongst animal lovers.

I am available whenever needed on my free days! We can work together to figure out a plan that works best for all parties. I can customize care plans based on individual needs. I understand that every pet is an individual with different likes and care needs. Assuring that our furry family members get the care they need is top priority.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was about 10, I’m 21 now. My major is Pre-Veterinary because I’ve had a love for animals and dream of being a vet since I was 7. I have a cat of my own, Luna, and she’s my world. I treat her like a baby so I would love to share the same love to your fur babies! I work full-time as a manager at Walmart, and I’m a full time college student (online). I’m pretty fair and understanding with scheduling, as long as you reach out in advance. If my schedule doesn’t fit for you, I do not mind adjusting to accommodate you and your fur babies! I also don’t have an issue with last minute planning, just be mindful of scheduling issues or certain questions I asks in regards of the service you’ve requested! When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, and get plenty of exercise and attention throughout the day. I also monitor their behavior to make sure they are happy, healthy, and not feeling stressed while their owner is away. As well as in a clients home, I respect your space and specific instructions on pet care! Ensuring your pets and home’s safety is never an issue.

About: I'm a lover of all animals, willing to accommodate special hours or instructions, if medications are needed I'm comfortable doing that as well. Have been pet sitting for 10+ years and have yet to meet a dog/pet I don't adore? I'm willing to work with anyone's pet and meet them beforehand to make sure they feel comfortable with me. A pet should always come first so I would want to make sure I can accommodate their needs. I'm a firm believer in in also having a healthy relationship with pet parents and most certainly encourage any questions to make sure your pet and I both be comfortable each other before accepting any job. Please feel free to contact me, I'll answer any questions about myself and background as well as provide references. I am currently a part-time student so my schedule can work around yours. I set my school hours accordingly, therefore it doesn't interfere with the care of your pet. Patience goes a long way when it comes to establishing a connection with a pet. Pets are attached to their owners and some can become sensitive or withdrawn to new people. It's up to me to form a bond with all pets. Most pets I have come across form relationships easily, however there are cases where pets may come with a past. Such as being rescues whose previous owners didn't treat them well . In such cases lots of love, attention and patience would be given on my part to ensure that your pet feels safe.

About: Hey! My name is Stefanie and I have been taking care of animals for almost my entire life. I have experience with both cats and dogs and would love to watch your pets for you. I hold myself to the same standards that I would expect from my own pet sitters. I can handle animals of all shapes and sizes, even your giant breeds! I have experience in the veterinary field and have cared for pets with all types of dietary restrictions, medical needs, and temperaments - so if your pet needs some special attention, I'm your gal! I have had dogs for almost my entire life. As a child my family had a Lhasa Apso, and he lived a long and happy life with us. I have had pets of my own since 2014, and all my pups are seniors now - they have a special place in my heart! I also have two sweet young cats and would love to check on your feline kiddos. I am a full time mother so I am readily available for drop in visits, overnights, and walks. Please note that my infant son will be with me during all visits. I will of course assume responsibility for my kiddo being safe around your pets, but please be mindful of your pets' temperament with children when booking! My ideal scenario when caring for your pets is to adopt their current routine - I find that keeps them the happiest while their people are away. I'm happy to visit on whatever schedule is best for you, and I'm happy to do overnights as needed.

FAQs for Dog Walking - New York

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 261 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across New York. 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 New York. 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 New York.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.

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 New York. On Rover:

  • 100% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
