Dog Walking in Campus Area-University District, Albany, NY

“Samantha is a wonderful sitter who showed a great deal of patience with my dog (who can be anxious around people he doesn't know). She worked with us and was flexible with scheduling. I highly recommend her!”

“Casey was great with my two dogs, particularly tender with both of my pups anxiety and quirks. She even brought treats for them! Casey was easy and timely in communication. Will definitely be hiring her again!”

“Sarah was amazing. We had a last minute family emergency and had to find a dog walker for Chepe. Sarah stepped up and walked Chepe twice for 2 days. Chepe loved her and enjoyed his walks. Would recommend Sarah anytime!”

“Anna is an amazing pet sitter! She has taken care of my dog as well as my mom’s dog in the past and she treats them like her own. She follows instructions perfectly and I feel great leaving my pup in the hands of someone so caring and capable!”

“Ewa is wonderful and trustworthy! She has walked my dogs multiple times now and I continue to book with her. I leave a key for her and she enters my home, gets my dogs ready for their walk and leaves them and their leashes where I left them and always locks up after! Would 10/10 recommend.”

“Ellie has been an absolute godsend for me and my pup! Moose absolutely loves their walks and gets so excited whenever she comes. She is wonderful with him and keeps him active and always takes fun routes!”

“Elena is wonderful and I’ve already rebooked with her! She came over to let my rambunctious pup out daily while I was out of town, even bringing along her own dog to get some extra energy out, and made sure to send updates and photos. Ahead of time, she asked really great questions about our dog care preferences, which highlighted her experience and made me feel very comfortable with our first time Rover experience. Highly recommend!”

“Jess is great! She gets a nice long walk in every time she comes, is attentive and a great communicator! She’s also been super flexible if need be. Will definitely book again!”

“Nancy has been an amazing pet owner for multiple cats and dogs throughout her life. She always ensures they always feel safe and engaged with the environment around them. Additionally, Nancy is a very active person who will be able to match your dog's speed whether that's a slow, leisurely walk or a run.”

“Jose came to the rescue while we were on vacation after our house sitter had a difficult encounter while walking our very sweet, but dog reactive, Great Dane Charlie. Charlie loved his walks with Jose”

About: As a devoted animal lover, my journey into pet care began when I started pet sitting for my boss's two golden retrievers. Their joyful personalities and wagging tails hooked me instantly! Since then, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for various dogs from different bosses, establishing a reputation as a trustworthy employee and pet sitter. Most recently, I’ve been caring for a German Shepherd who has quickly become one of my biggest fans—our bond is truly special! My passion doesn’t stop at dogs; I also share my home with my adorable kitty, Chloe. Whether it’s dogs, cats, reptiles, or any other critter, I genuinely love them all and strive to create a trusting and loving environment: I want every pet to feel safe and happy--and continue their routine!--while their owner is away. I'm on a sabbatical! My schedule is quite flexible, which allows me to add pet care seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine. I prioritize pet sitting and care as a meaningful part of my day/week, dedicating time to ensure that the pets I look after receive plenty of love, attention, and exercise. On a typical day, I might start with morning walks or playtime, followed by feeding and some quality cuddle time. Throughout the week, I can adjust my schedule to accommodate each pet’s needs, whether that means longer walks, special play sessions, or simply being there for companionship. My availability allows me to be attentive and responsive, creating a nurturing environment where pets can thrive while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I want to create a safe and comfortable environment that sticks to their routines. I believe that familiarity is key, so I make sure to follow the established schedules for feeding, walking, and playtime, ensuring that each pet feels secure and at ease. Most importantly, I want your pet to trust me! That means engaging with them through their favorite activities and providing plenty of affection. Whether it’s sticking to their usual walking routes or maintaining their feeding times, I strive to keep their routine as normal as possible. This approach helps them feel relaxed and cared for, allowing them to thrive while their owners are away.

“Clyanna has been great with our 2 dogs and our cat! She's very communicative and always sends a photo, map of the walk, and recap when she's done. It's very clear she cares about our animals and caring for them well.”

“They where absolutely amazing took her out right on time and where super mindful of our indoor only cats not getting out would recommend again and again”

“Ewan did an excellent job of walking my energetic Siberian Husky while I dealt with some health and mobility issues. T got very excited around the time Ewan was expected, and always seemed thrilled to see him. T was sufficiently exercised during the walks that he stayed mellow all afternoon. I would definitely use Ewan next time I need dog walking assistance.”

“I've gone to Sofia twice now to walk my energetic working dog and each time has been a joy! Finding a walker for the middle of the day can be difficult, but Sofia has been there each time I needed her. Jace is always happier on days she comes by!”

“Julia is very caring and responsible when handling pets. She has owned and cared for her own dog for years and likes to be 100% on a pets health to make sure they are comfortable and happy.”

“Stacie was fantastic while caring for my dog and 2 cats. She was kind, gentle, and slow with my senior cat and gave her her nightly meds no problem (the cat takes them in her dinner though so it was easy). She sent lots of updates and pictures which means so much to me as a pet parent. She stayed in our home but when we asked said she could board at her house too next time if we want. Good sitter who takes good care of pets”

“Another amazing dog walk with Erica! Walks, playing fetch and lots of cuddles . No wonder his eyes perk up and his tail wags like crazy when he hears her name !”

About: Lived on a farm and took care of all sorts of pets ranging from dogs to llamas. Fostered and found homes for over 5 dogs. Rescued 1 for myself. I go on daily walks (minimum 1 mile depending on age and ability) and two potty breaks for my own puppy. Just finished up a job that had me away for 13 hours and now have all the time in the world to be with my puppy. The owner is always right. Any instructions will be followed to a tee since I expect the same when someone watches my dog. Play times are enriching and plentiful.

“I have known Allysa for 3 years now & both our flat-coated retrievers love her! She is soft-spoken & unassuming but can be quite strong physically as well as vocally which is necessary when dealing with dogs. She will be amazing! You will be happy you chose Alyssa!”
