About: I’ve been dog sitting and pet sitting for over 5½ years and have built experience caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. I also have references available upon request. Outside of pet care, I’m a manager at Club Pilates, which has helped me become very reliable, punctual, and responsible with my time. I pride myself on communication, dependability, and treating every pet like family. I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Ever since I was a kid, animals have always held a special place in my heart. I have two pups of my own, and I would treat your pets with the same love, care, and attention as if they were my own family. I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust to care for your pets while you’re away. Leaving your animals with someone else can be stressful, and my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing they’re safe, cared for, loved, and getting the attention they deserve.
“Maryline is wonderful with my puppy Josie. She is reliable and flexible when it comes to my work schedule. She also keeps me updated throughout the day with plenty of photos from their walks.”
“TJ was amazing! He was always on time and had great communication throughout the entire process. He even went out of his way to do more than what was asked of him. He was so patient and gentle with my dog Mia, and she absolutely loved him. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Rose was great with my senior special-needs dog Porter! Porter absolutely loves her! She walked, played with, fed and administered medication to my dog while I was away. She is very communicative and professional! She really goes above and beyond and you can tell she loves animals and wants to do the best for them! When the family members that were supposed to be watching my dog fell through, she was very quick to respond to make sure Porter had everything he needed. I will definitely be using Rose again!”
“We are so glad we met Stephanie! Upon her arrival, our two 70+ lb pups were bouncy and very excited to meet her. Before even entering the house, she got them to sit and get calm. She shared great photos and didn’t leave the house until she made sure the pups had what they needed to be comfortable for the rest of the day. Our pups can’t wait to see her again!!”
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life and understand them very well. I now have a cat of my own and looking to look after both. I am currently working part time so will have plenty of time to tend to your furbaby. I can go to your place and take care of them. I can easily handle different temperaments of cats and dogs and look after them in your own home. I also have 1 cat that is friendly.
“Emily has been walking my two pups for a couple days and she has been great. She’s goes above and beyond for our pups who she just met! Glad I went with Emily, she sends me updates on each walk and has been helping us tremendously! Our pups get excited to see her! I highly recommend.”
“Tracy was great with Winnie! She was reliable, easy to communicate with, and took great care of her. We loved the photos during the walk and would definitely book with her again.”
About: Through my life, I have been a pet parent for several dogs of different ages. Family, friends, and clients have trusted me with their pets since a young age. Dogs from all ages are welcome including those with dietary and medical needs. I’ve made the decision to leave the banking industry after several years to pursue happiness and focus on my passions. Having a flexible schedule allows me to give your pet the care it needs from potty breaks to overnight stays. I love going for walks and hikes and would love for your pet to attend. As a house sitter, I provide specialized care for each pet, ensuring their happiness and safety at all times. My experience includes administering medication as well, if needed.
“Kristen was lovely! On time and very sweet and patient with my anxious pup. She had nice energy, and comes across as very responsible and caring. I felt confident that my pup was in good hands with Kristen. Will definitely hire her again!”
About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was young, dog sitting for neighbors and family members! I have taken care of dogs of all sizes from 5lbs all the way to 75lbs! I am currently a 3rd year student at Sacred Heart University. I am available to stop by between classes and am available most weekends as well! I feel comfortable and can easily crate dogs if needed, I prioritize the pets safety, whether that is taking them on walks or just stopping in for a quick visit, I will always make sure I am doing what is best for your pets!
“Alex was delightful to meet in person for our meet and greet and treated our pup with kindness. Even though Penny hates walking in the rain, Alex got her outside and then played a bit indoors. Fantastic!”

About: I work for 2 local school districts and am a true animal lover. I am very respectful, responsible and dependable. My friends and family have always come to me for help and advice regarding their fur babies. I’ve taken care of my own and others loves for over 34 years. I’m looking forward to helping you and your family! With what I do for a living I have lots of down time where I am able to care my time with the fur babies . I will follow exactly how you want your fur babies to be taken care of in your home. Over the years I have learned that it is stressful to move your pet when you vacation or have to go for work. The babies seem to do much better in their normal environment . I will also provide the extra love, kisses and belly rubs . I do need to mention that I will watch your home and take care of the fur babies needs but I do not sleep at my clients homes.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Wappingers Falls
Ashley was so accommodating by taking a last-minute walking job for my dog, and then went above and beyond when I hadn't updated my address in Rover on time and she went to our old house- she was kind enough to drive to our correct address and complete the walk. Great communication and pictures.

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

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 Wappingers Falls. On Rover:
- 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
