About: I truly treat every pet like they’re my own. I have hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals including dogs, cats, and more, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, routines, and needs. I’m especially attentive to small details — like changes in behavior, appetite, or mood — so I can make sure your pet stays happy and healthy while you’re away. I have experience with energetic dogs who need structured walks and patience, as well as more sensitive or anxious pets who need a calm, gentle approach. I’m also comfortable caring for multiple pets at once and maintaining clean, safe environments (including litter boxes, cages, and feeding areas). What really sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give — I don’t just “watch” pets, I bond with them. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel completely at ease knowing your pet is in loving, reliable hands. Pet care is a big part of my everyday routine. I care for multiple animals at home, including dogs and cats, so I’m used to staying on a consistent schedule for feeding, cleaning, and giving each pet attention. I make time daily for walks, playtime, and bonding, and I’m very attentive to their behavior and needs. Caring for animals isn’t something I do occasionally—it’s part of my lifestyle, and I truly enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific preferences. I make sure pets have a clean, safe environment, plenty of attention, and regular potty breaks or exercise depending on their needs. I’m very attentive to behavior and will quickly notice if something seems off. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they feel reassured while they’re away. Whether I’m in my home or theirs, I treat every pet like my own and focus on making them feel safe, loved, and well cared for.

“Marcela has been an absolute gem when it comes to walking my dog! She’s reliable, punctual, and truly cares about the pets she works with. My pup adores her and always comes back from their walks happy and well-exercised. I really appreciate the updates and photos she sends—they give me peace of mind knowing my dog is in such good hands. Marcela goes above and beyond, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog walker!”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments for over 5 years and it's been one of the most fun jobs I've ever had! It's so rewarding knowing that I can provide a safe, caring, and loving environment for an animal while its owners are away. I am very communicative, detail-oriented, and I take the work seriously while also providing a fun environment for both myself and the pet. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! I currently work as an actor and a freelance writer, so my schedule is pretty flexible. My writing work is remote and can be done from anywhere, and the acting work of course only comes when I book a role which I would know about in advance. I am available most days, nights, and weekends! I unfortunately cannot have dogs in my apartment, but I'm happy to overnight sit in a pet owner's home as I have done it numerous times over the years. I always make sure that doors leading outside are kept closed and locked and will make sure to walk into the house/apartment carefully so that no one gets out. I also make sure that leashes and harnesses are put on properly and comfortably before heading out for a walk. I can crate animals if needed and I never leave any food or other items out that could potentially be consumed by the pet. Your pet will always be safe with me!

About: Hi my name is Jen. I am a huge animal lover. I’ve been a dog and cat owner most of my life. Ive also being the proud owner of ferrets, guinea pigs, rabbits and fish. I currently have 2 amazing kitties (2 and 3 yr old) my beloved yorkie passed away last year at the age of 15 from renal failure, she fought for over 2 yrs, my brave little girl. I’ve cared for dogs from 5lbs to 140lbs. I have a lot of patience with animals and treat them as my own. Children and pets are the precious family members who need TLC, which is why I spent most of my adult life in a career caring for both. It is so hard to trust someone to care for your pets while you are away, but be rest assured that you will feel comfortable and at ease with me. Your pet will be cared for as if they are my own. Please reach out if you ever need help w caring for your fur babies 💕 I am currently doing pet care daily, as this is my livelihood. I have some flexibility so pls reach out if you need me to care for your fur baby. I have a lot of experience and great references. Whatever u need pls know your pet is in safe hands. I’m extra cautious when it comes to caring for your fur baby. I make sure all gates are shut before letting them outside. I will let them out to make sure they do their business and play w them as well. If u need me to walk them I will leash them securely and make sure to not have any other dogs come too close unless told otherwise. Leaving your home, I am extremely careful making sure your pets do not slip out the door.

About: Hello! My name is Riley, I’m 25 years old, and I have lived and cared for animals for 18+ years. I had a golden retriever who has passed, and I have two cats Charlie and Nyla, whom I adore and love to play/take care of! I have experience walking small and big dogs and hyperactive furry friends. Growing up, I would walk my neighbor's dogs multiple times a week and spend time at their houses while they were on vacation. I can also work with other types of animals as well if need be! I am flexible. I’m currently a barista, so I have a flexible work schedule! Most of the time I’d like a couple of days in advance notice, however if it’s last minute, please feel free to contact me about dropping in! Weekends available as well. When my family dog was still alive, we would feed her early in the am and let her out. We'd feed her again mid-day and once more at night. We would walk her once a day and play with her outside for a chunk of time. As for my cats, we would feed them wet food morning and night and some dry food mid-day. Litter box cleaning would occur a couple of times a week and playtime, was basically all the time!

About: I've cared primarily for dogs for over 25 years, frequently serving as the go-to walker and sitter for friends and family for the past decade. For the past 3 years, I've also cared for rabbits, and I have done drop-ins and overnight stays for multi-cat homes. I'm experienced and comfortable with administering oral medications and topical treatments for cooperative pets. I'm local to Babylon and available for drop-ins and walks nearby. I keep a flexible schedule and can visit at just about any time of day, seven days a week. For midday bookings, I request some margin for service time due to demand. I currently offer drop-in visits and dog walking. I follow each owner's house rules closely, including which rooms pets are allowed in, which pets can be together and which need to stay separate, and any feeding or medication routines. Dogs stay leashed any time we're outside a designated play area, and I check that doors, gates, and enclosures are secure before I leave.

“Bradley has been an absolutely fantastic dog walker. He is incredibly friendly, caring, and understanding, and it’s clear from the start that he genuinely loves working with animals. He consistently goes above and beyond during walks — even incorporating a bit of running, which my dog absolutely loves and benefits from. Bradley is also extremely responsive and communicative, which gives me great peace of mind. I always know my dog is in good hands with him. It’s rare to find someone who truly cares about the pets they look after, but Bradley definitely does. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and compassionate dog walker.”

About: I take pride in giving pets the best time they can have while their owners are away! I’ve always been an animal lover and will treat your pet as if they were my own. I can watch your dog and/or cat. love dog walking and have dog sat for plenty of neighbors, friends, and family over the years. Now that I’m on Rover, I’m loving making connections with new pets and their owners. A little more about me and my professional experience: I work at an animal shelter part time where I provide care mostly for kittens and cats and at a dog groomer where I love on all the pups and make them look their best! I am going to vet tech school as well to learn about the overall health of animals. Something fun: I can teach your pet tricks while I watch them! Right now, I am working part-time so I have lots of time to take care of your pet. Just let me know your schedule and I’ll get back to you. I will take the best care of your home and treat it as if it is my own. I leave places the same as or better than how I found them. I don’t mind cleaning up any pet messes.

About: I grew up in a house full of pets and have volunteered at various pet rescues. Now, 51 years later, through every chapter of my life, milestones, joys, and losses, there has always been a pet by my side. I can’t imagine a home without the sound of paws, the comfort of companionship, or the simple, grounding presence of an animal. I work full time from home and am happy to be flexible to any schedule. This works particularly well for pets that are used to a routine. My pets include a Labrador Retriever named "Jax" who is 6 years old. Jax likes to run about in our fenced yard. I also have 3 cats named "Beau", "Shadow" and "Oliver" who remain indoor. All of my babies are rescues.

About: Dogs, cats and helping people all make me happy. I’ve lived with at least one dog since I was 4 years old after adopting our first family dog from the north shore animal league. I’ve had 3 years of fostering experience for the queens ASPCA where my aunt volunteered. I rehabbed overweight dogs and sick dogs into shape and health to be adopted to their forever homes. We had 2 foster failures our bond was so strong we had to keep. I currently have 3 dogs and one cat all rescues. I always form an immediate bond with any pet I meet and promise to take care of your pet like they are my own. I understand the hesitation in trusting others with your pets and proudly guarantee the best care possible. I am gladly available weekdays both mornings and afternoons as well as anytime needed on the weekends and/or holidays. I do work a full time job second shift 3pm -11pm Monday through Friday excluding holidays. I work in Hicksville for the school district doing security. I’ve found and saved several lost dogs and wild animals throughout the neighborhood over the past 9 plus years. Easily my favorite part of the job. I love to serve the community by helping others. I care as much about stray or random animals as I do my own pets. Seeing a dog or cat in public is easily the highlight of my day. I like to get down and meet dogs at their level to gain their trust and show I am not s threat. I am a good listener and will follow all orders given to take care of someone’s pet and do whatever is best for any animal in my care.

About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I genuinely can’t imagine a home without animals in it! Today, my home is happily full with three dogs, a cat, and two little boys, so caring for others is pretty much second nature to me. Two of my dogs and my cat are rescues, which has also given me experience with animals who may need a little extra patience, reassurance, and time to feel comfortable. I’ve loved dogs of all breeds and sizes over the years—from Great Danes and English Bulldogs to Golden Retrievers—and I truly believe every dog has their own personality, quirks, and way of communicating what they need. I’m patient, attentive, affectionate, and always respectful of the routines and boundaries their families have established. As a pet parent myself, I also understand how much trust it takes to hand your dog’s leash over to someone else. I’ll treat your dog the way I would want someone to treat mine: with kindness, patience, attention, and lots of love. I originally joined Rover years ago simply because spending time with dogs sounded like the best job imaginable. All these years later, that really hasn’t changed. 🐾❤️ I currently work a hybrid schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks and drop-ins throughout the week. I especially love early morning and evening walks! As a lifelong dog owner with three dogs of my own, pet care is already a big part of my everyday routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always come first. I’ll follow your instructions and routines closely, keep dogs securely leashed on walks, and pay attention to their individual personality and needs. I’m also very respectful of clients’ homes and will treat both your pet and your space with the same care I’d want for my own.

About: Dogs have been apart of my life for as long as I can remember. I worked as a dog walker while I was in college and I loved it! I gained valuable experience walking and caring for all types and sizes of dogs. I have experience caring for cats, birds, hamsters, and chickens as well from this. I have a 10 year old pitbull named Tinkerbell a 3 year old pitbull named Peter and a 1 year old American bully named nuke. They are my best friends. I am my family and friends go to whenever they need someone to care for their pups while they are away from home as I love all pets as if they are my own. One of my favorite sayings is, “Saving one dog may not change the world but for that one dog their world will be changed forever.” I currently run my own online store. This leaves me with a very flexible schedule giving me plenty of time to spend with your pup! I am available every day from morning to afternoon. I have experience with both pets who are very excited to see me and pets who are shy. When meeting a pet for the first time I carefully take the time to get to know their personality so that they may have the most enjoyable experience with me.

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 North Lindenhurst. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in North Lindenhurst after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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.

  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

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.
