“Shelby did an awesome job! Went above and beyond and sent so many pictures. We have a husky and she brushed out her undercoat without being asked. Would definitely rebook with her again :)”
“What an awesome experience for my very spoiled lab! Diana wants to know all the details about all the dogs she has so she can provide the best personal experience for each one. She sent me pictures of his day, text messages of significant moments and I showed up to her group of dogs playing together. Duke has found his second home! I would highly recommend Diana to anyone that has a spoiled pet and is worried about leaving them behind during their travels....Duke had a better week than I did!”
“Connie took lots of pictures and was careful to follow all of my instructions. She took the time to meet our dog ahead of hosting him and was very easy to work with. Very responsive.”
“Whitney took great care of our little boy and was patient with him as he can be anxious with new experiences. We got photo updates and she made sure he was well taken care of!”
“Always wonderful with my shy baby and my reactive baby. My dogs are always happy and relaxed when I pick them up, honestly I think they would stay with Julie forever if they could! I’ve been going to her for a year and still go to her despite moving up to the Portland area!”
“Miriam has watched Chowder for over a year now and she has been amazing! Chowder and her have connected so well and it’s clear that he is completely comfortable and happy around her. She is very attentive and sensitive to his needs. Very happy to continue working with her 😊”
“Joseph was excellent—my pups were very happy. He provided photos and a perfect environment for my furry family. Cooper and Gracie returned completely contented. II highly recommend Joseph.”

“Madison took great care of my little senior. She provided me updates and pictures. My girl was as perfect when I picked her up as she was when I dropped her off. Would recommend!”
“You will not find more attentive and caring hosts than Dan and Dave! Our very anxious older dog was quickly at home with them and their sweet chihuahua, Hoss. Our Maisie was walked twice a day and I was sent pictures and updates each day. I couldn't recommend them more highly! They are wonderful pet hosts!!”
“Arielle was amazing!!! This was our first time ever leaving our fur baby with anyone other than family! She made us feel so at ease & remained in contact with us throughout his stay! She sent us pictures so we could see how he was doing & it looked like he was on vacation!!! She accepted him last minute & he came home so content & exhausted from his playtime! We have definitely found Opi’s home away from home!!! If you’re looking for an awesome sitter for your fur baby, look no further!!!”
“Allison and her family were wonderful! We got morning and evening updates each day.🐾 It was evident our dogs were well cared for while we were away. We have a heeler who can have a hard time adjusting to new environments but Allison knew exactly how to handle her. Allison was very friendly and knowledgeable. It was a wonderful experience and we hope to use her again in the near future! 🐶”

About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds for years. I’m able to walk, bathe, and snuggle your pets . I will give them all the love while you’re away. I am a homemaker with free availability, I am usually home meal prepping or tending to the garden. I am flexible with schedules and routines to fit your needs.

I involve them in the afternoon activities as well when I go out to garden. Lots of cuddles, playtime, and treats are shared and are given throughout the day.
“Elizabeth took such great care of Percy while we were gone. We got lots of updates and great pictures. He had such a good time, we think he’s missing all of the space and puppy playmates. He came home happy and healthy.”
“Jade was more than accommodating to are pup Finnigan. He is home after his play date and having a rest lol. We loved that she took him on a walk and had her pups to play with him as well. The updates and pictures/videos were awesome as well. Definitely taking next step to over night.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Albany
Ben’s stay at Steve’s home went very well. Seems he adjusted nicely and when I came to get him he wasn’t overly anxious to leave and continued to play with Steve as we discussed how it went in my absence. I would definitely ask Steve and Jackson to dog sit again. They were very gracious. Thank you for taking care of Ben.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Albany on Rover is $36.27 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
96% of Albany sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Albany landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Albany home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Albany.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Albany sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 sitter 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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in OR ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
