About: I've been taking care of pets since I was 10, varying from my own and other peoples cutie animals, walking, feeding, playing obviously! And just making sure they're all comfy and happy. I'm currently part time so anytime in the afternoon or evenings, I'm pretty flexible at the moment! Not looking to do any overnight sitting though I'm not using my own house to watch pets but whatever the owners have will work. Just paying attention to what they're doing and making sure to clean up and keep everyone happy!

About: Please reach out to me with questions, my schedule right now is a bit wonky, so if there’s a day you see I’m not available and are curious about, please message me! I've been around lots of animals my whole life. My parents had anything from hamsters to bearded dragons. All I need is clear and precise instructions on how to take care of your pets, and we're good to go! I have most of my week available to help take care of your pets! I will work around my schedule to spend some quality time with furry and non furry friends! I can do anything from taking your dog on a walk, to just letting them out every few hours. Or even doing overnights if need be. I'm good at cleaning up along the way, so if your pet makes a mess, rest assured you'll maybe never even notice it was there! I love giving constant attention to animals if they are willing to have it, but am also okay with just occupying the space they breathe in. You just gotta tell me the vibe and I'm all in!

About: I’ve cared for animals of all species since I was 2 years old. Horses to reptiles I am comfortable with a wide range of personalities, medications, and care needs. I have some specialized training and experience and a quick study. I’m known for being especially patient, attentive and dependable, so you can confidently focus on the rest of life while I’m with your babies. I am currently in charge of my own scheduling. This flexibility allows me to bring my work with me and schedule around your needs, resulting in a relaxed energy around your pet. This means I’m not rushing to them, through our visit or leaving them with chaotic energy. I take a lot of genuine pride in the energy I carry around your pet, ensuring to greet and leave them with a satisfied, happy, and calm energy. I like to follow the same schedule they are used to, so whatever information I can have about their routine and preferences is always helpful!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs big and small for 8 years. I have some experience training puppies and adult dogs as well. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, over all take great care of their furry friends for weeks at a time. I have always had a love for animals. Im currently enrolled in college, however after class hours and in between I spend all my time taking care of my fur babies at home. I am not currently working which gives me plenty of time to play and care for your loved pups/kitties. I have a big yard and 2 playful pups to keep your furry friends company. I have a couple crates so that if needed they can have down time away from each other to ensure I can prioritize the care given to your loved ones.

About: I have been taking care of a wide variety of pets my whole life with my personal pets. I have personally had dogs, cats, horses, sheep, and guinea pigs. I started pet sitting/walking for family friends in high school and have continued pet sitting for clients all through undergrad and vet school. I am currently a first year vet student at OSU! I don’t have any personal pets of my own so I enjoy dog walking and pet sitting to get my animal time in! I currently don’t have a job for the summer so I will have lots of availability at all times of the day to walk your dog! For pet sitting I also have a wide range of availability throughout the summer! I always prioritize safety on walks by using secure leashing, avoiding unsafe situations, and paying close attention your dogs behavior and comfort level. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or needs a slower pace, I adjust to fit their needs! During dog sitting I really focus on maintaining your pets normal routine, giving them lots of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection. I keep you updated with photos so you don’t have to wonder about what your pet is up to!

About: Whether your pup is young and full of energy or on the older, calmer side of life and likes to lounge, I am your woman! I currently provide daily care for my friends 7 year old Shih Tzu mix, as well as my neighbors 4 year old Husky. I would say I definitely understand Dogs more than I do people. I love talking to them, taking them for long walks, playing fetch and teaching them new tricks. I am also a Cat lover! If you have a cat or kitten that needs to be fed, litter box cleaned or just loved on, I am available for that as well. I am a compassionate individual and I find that I connect with animals in a way that can sometimes be unexplainable. I understand animals and how they work, I think humans can learn more for animals (dogs, cats, etc.) if we all paid more attention to what they are trying to teach us. I am a mom of a 7 month old and he is a big animal lover like his mama! I work during the day, but I am at home all night and every weekend. I have a fenced back yard and I live in a single level apartment. We spend our days out in the yard, weather permitting and walking at Minto Brown Park. I like to go by the house rules of where I am sitting. I currently do not have a place where I can bring pets, so I would travel to you and follow any rules and guidelines you have for your fur baby

FAQs for Dog Walking - Albany

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Albany is $19 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $26 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 1,259 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Albany. 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 Albany. 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 Albany 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 Albany. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
