“Bridget is great! She is always on time, follows my instructions carefully and is very communicative. And most importantly she is fantastic with my dog. My dog has weird little quirks and can be very excitable and Bridget is great about it all. No notes, I’m glad to have found her.”
About: I have two dachshund of my own! I’ve been hosting for 2 years and would love to continue to do so. Can’t wait to meet your pups! I treat my pets as a part of myself. I make sure they are accommodated. My days aren’t hectic so morning and afternoon+ night routine is established. I have a fenced yard. There’s lots of grass and space for them to run around. So freedom won’t be a problem. I make sure to keep my space free from food and anything chewable.
About: I've cared for animals my whole life: around four dogs and more than five cats over the years, from feeding and walks to overnight stays and everything in between. Right now I live with and care for four cats full-time (litter, feeding, treats, training), including Bitsy, who came to us as a feral, abandoned kitten. She'd survived months alone in the woods before she was rescued, and she wouldn't come near anyone. I spent hours lying on the floor of the room she was in until she finally came to say hello. From there, I trained her to come when called, sit on command, and wait patiently for food. It wasn't instant and it wasn't guaranteed. It took months of just showing up, consistently, before she trusted anyone. That's the same approach I bring to every animal I care for, whether they warm up in five minutes or need real time to feel safe. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, and I'm comfortable administering medication if your pet needs it. I always ask for a meet-and-greet before the first booking, so we can make sure it's a good fit before you leave your pet in my care. I am home most of the day and open most of the week, so I can offer flexible availability that works with your schedule. Weekends work too, but I prioritize weekday requests first if I have to choose. Unfortunately, I don’t have the space to board or have client pets in my home. All of my care takes place on your pet’s own turf where they are comfortable. During a visit or walk, I’ll send you updates and photos every hour to a few hours, depending on the length of the job. That way you are always aware of how things are going. I believe in preparation first. I make sure to understand your pet’s routine, habits, and any risks before I’m alone with them so that I can prevent problems. If something does go wrong then the priority is getting the animal safe first. I will update you the moment that’s done or as soon as I can do it without compromising your animals safety or the safety and privacy of your home.
About: I have grown up with pets my entire life since I was a child and now 38 I love them! I've worked on a farm too. Pet Care fits into my life like a glove I have the time for them and I cannot wait to meet your amazing fur babies. I have a big sizeable home which they are free to roam I also have a backyard I can also take them on plenty of walks
“Jr was the best option for taking care of my girls while I was gone. They made sure they knew every detail of care before I left and sent me updates while I was gone. I could not have asked for a better sitter!!!”
About: I was raised in a positive pet friendly family environment and had my own dogs and cats for more than twenty years. I can handle large, medium, and small dogs and will look to give them long walks and lots of exercise as a good dog is a tired dog. I work full-time but have plenty of free time during the week and on weekends to feed, walk, play fetch, or just hang out with your dog. I am happy to come to your home and walk your dog and or play at a local dog park, I am familiar with dogs from Yorkshire Terriers and Kings Charles Spaniels to Rottweilers and German Shepards.
“Grettel was fantastic! Leo loved her and couldn’t wait for her visits. She was very thorough asking questions about Leo’s routine. A pleasure to deal with. We would definitely use her again.”
“Timothy was great! This was our first time using his services, and everything went smoothly. He was communicative, easygoing, and very flexible. He even offered to refill our dog’s water bowl! He sent plenty of photos, and our dog looked happy and excited in all of them. We’ll definitely book with him again. Thank you!”
About: Pets have always been an important part of my life! As a former dog owner, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your beloved pet in someone else's care. I've also regularly cared for friends' and family members' dogs and cats, giving me experience with different personalities, routines, and care needs. I'm comfortable caring for pets at every stage of life, from energetic puppies who need patience and consistency to senior pets who may need a gentler approach and extra attention. I've also cared for multiple pets at once and have experience administering medication, always following the owner's instructions carefully. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, a drop-in visit for feeding and companionship, overnight care in your home, or a comfortable stay while you're away, my priority is making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I take the time to learn each pet's individual needs, favorite activities, routines, and quirks so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free. I know how reassuring it is to know your pet is in good hands, which is why I prioritize clear communication, photos, and updates throughout each booking. I will follow your instructions closely, respect your home, and treat your pets with the same patience, kindness, and attention I would want for my own. Every pet deserves personalized care, and every owner deserves peace of mind. I'd love to get to know you and your pets and help make time apart a little easier for everyone! I plan my pet care bookings around my weekly schedule to ensure every pet receives attentive, dependable care. I coordinate walks, drop-in visits, and other bookings in advance so I can accommodate each pet's routine and needs. My availability varies by day and service, with opportunities for evening, weekend, and overnight care depending on my calendar. I keep my availability updated, communicate clearly with pet parents, and make sure expectations are established before each booking. My goal is to make scheduling easy for you while providing consistent, loving care for your pets! Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my priorities! I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, routine, and needs so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’ll follow your instructions closely, from feeding schedules and medication to walks and favorite activities. I’m mindful of keeping pets safe, securing doors and gates, and respecting your home. I also love sharing photo updates so you can see how your furry family members are doing! Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, my goal is to treat them like family and give you peace of mind while you’re away.
“Our dog had a great time meeting and getting to know TJ. He always communicates with us and we feel so comfortable and happy knowing that our dog is in such great hands. We will continue all walks with TJ and highly recommend him!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals for over 15 years. I pet sat many times as a child and continued through adulthood including, walking, feeding, administering medicine, baths & snuggles! I also volunteered at a local animal shelter as a dog walker. Currently 3 cats and a rambunctious German Shepard/Siberian Husky 3 years old. I have cared for all kinds of pets including but not limited to goats, chickens, horses, pigs, donkeys etc I’m currently working full time but have a very flexible schedule and can move my hours around to meet your needs especially for early morning and later evening check ins or during work hours! I have worked with leash trained and non leash trained dogs if you have a fenced in yard. I prefer leash trained dogs for public walks with a standard leash. I love animals, their snuggles & kisses too! I have kids & animals so drool & slobber don’t bother me!
About: I've had animals most of my life and genuinely love fur babies. Friends and family have relied on me for years to walk, feed, board, and care for their pets of all different breeds because of my love for animals and my attention to each animal’s unique needs. I currently have two pups, Mr. Milo and Bellarina, and have personally owned dogs of different life stages, from puppy to elderly. I have experience with adult and elderly cat care as well. I started on Rover to be able to care for as many dogs and cats as possible, since my schedule affords me that freedom. I can’t get enough! I’d be honored to care for your fur babies with the care and attention they deserve. I currently work mostly from home, with two days per week in the office. I'm available for boarding Thursday through Sunday morning (early morning pickup), and dog walking almost every day of the week. I have a fully fenced in yard and a sweet puggle named Milo who gets along with dogs, cats, and babies. I have a spare bedroom if your furry friend needs to be separated from Milo and plenty of room for your crate or other beds, toys, etc.
“Lilly is the dog-whisperer! My dogs are so happy to see her, and she has such a skilled way of handling their enthusiasm. I am so glad to be able to trust her with my pets.”
“Sofia was so gentle and patient with my skittish rescue dog! Ellie felt safe with her right away and even cuddled up a bit on the first visit. We will definitely be spending more time with Sofia! She’s wonderful.”
About: I have always had a special connection with dogs. I grew up with dogs and treated them like part of the family. I have been primarily working as a pet nanny for 5 years for someone who traveled to Europe on a monthly basis. They are staying in Europe indefinitely so I am looking to add some new clients. I can offer your dogs fun playtime and a sense of stability by caring for them in their own environment. I am also available for walks and drop in visits. I send pictures and updates daily. Your best friend will be spoiled and pampered with me. I have a very flexible schedule with plenty of availability as this is my main job. I can also do long term sitting up to 6 weeks if necessary. I am responsible and professional and respectful in your home. Besides caring for your pets, I am happy to pick up mail and water plants.

Bridget is great! She is always on time, follows my instructions carefully and is very communicative. And most importantly she is fantastic with my dog. My dog has weird little quirks and can be very excitable and Bridget is great about it all. No notes, I’m glad to have found her.
Jacqueline, is absolutely fabulous. I need my dog walked daily. She is always timely and has never missed a day in over a month that I have been using her. She is kind and communicates. She is honest, and that’s a big one, as she has access to my home. Look no further she is outstanding.
Linnea is absolutely amazing!! She was so loving and patient with my 9 year old chihuahua who gets a bit grumpy when going out for walks in subzero temperatures (it just so happened that the week we planned our trip for was when “historic storm fern” descended upon the city lol). Needless to say we were so relieved to have booked with Linnea— having her support and regular updates gave us the peace of mind that actually allowed us to enjoy our trip, and knowing our pup was well taken care of was invaluable. Highly recommend Linnea for anyone who wants reliable, kind and empathetic care their pet!

The average cost of Dog Walking in Port Ewen is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $22 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Port Ewen. 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 Port Ewen 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. 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 Port Ewen. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 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.
