House Sitting in Campus Area-University District, Albany, NY

“Merissa is a wonderful sitter and we are extremely happy with the care she provides! We have a few senior animals with special food and medical needs, and she made sure to follow all our instructions and kept us updated throughout her stay. She makes sure all of the animals are well-exercised and stimulated. We already have our next sit booked with her and highly recommend her as a responsible and thoughtful sitter.”

“We are so thrilled to have Evelyn sit with Smily while we were away. Evelyn ensured that we were well informed of the goings on with our dog and home, and even went above and beyond (the house was cleaner than we left it, I'm sure. We could tell that Smily was happy and loved! We highly recommend, and look forward to booking again.”

“Axel loved his stay with Nyasia. He was nursing a healing leg from some surgery and Nyasia took great care of him, giving him his meds and ensuring he got the right amount of exercise! She kept us informed on how he was doing daily, and kept in touch with us through our entire trip. 5 stars!”

“Kevin did a fantastic job house sitting with Igloo for the day! He even went out of his way to come meet Igloo a couple days before so that she would be comfortable staying with a new person in the house. He kept us updated with photos during the day. It was great being able to have the day to ourselves and not worry - we would definitely have him back again!”

“Josie was amazing and took really good care of our dogs. She walked them, played with them and was very attentive. The house looked great when we got home also. She did everything we asked and more! We would definitely have her back!”

“Casey was fantastic! Multiple updates throughout the day on how our dog and cat were doing with pictures and short video clips. Really appreciated all the communication. The house was just the way we left it when we got back, but most importantly we came back to happy, healthy animals :) Would definitely book with Casey again!”

“Heather walks my dog on the days I work, and she is incredibly reliable, so communicative and very quickly responsive. My dog loves her too, and I always appreciate the pictures she’s sends on their walks. Recently, we went out of town for the weekend, and Heather house sat. She sent multiple updates and pictures a day, which was so appreciated, and was just as communicative and reliable as always! I felt so secure leaving my guy and home knowing Heather would be there to take care of home. Thank you again!!”

About: I've been a dog lover since childhood and had my own dachshund Charlie for 9 years. I've watched big and small dogs for friends and neighbors, frequented dog parks, and walked dogs through sweltering heat and snow banks. I am a freelance graphic designer hoping to pick up some extra work. My availability is flexible and I can work to accommodate you especially on long term bookings. I have experience working in clients' homes for estate sales and will respect your space and belongings. I will put your pet's safety and health first and look out for anything that may compromise that while under my care.

“Jenna & Aidan must have done an excellent job taking care of my cat as she didn't yell at me for hours upon my return home!! She was as happy as could be. J&A were very responsive, and timely. I appreciated their willingness to meet up a head of time to see the lay of the land. I would use them again in a heart beat.”

“I have two cats that are very picky about who they will be around and I selected Eydid because their profile shows how passionate they are with cats. It was my first time using Rover or any sitter and I was definitely anxious about it. Eydid is amazing - he took the time to get to know my cats, sit with them, and play with them. They love Eydid and that says a lot! Eydid was very respectful of my home and provided me with great updates and pics & videos of the cats having fun. 10/10 would select again. In fact I already have booked Eydid for another session when I am traveling out of the country :D”

About: While I’ve never had my own dog, I have many dogs in my life who I adore, and who adore me. Dogs always approach me in public because they can sense how much I love them! I’ll love your pup as if it’s my own! I'm a PA student and my schedule is different everyday. If you request something a week in advance, I should be able to arrange something! Whether your pup just needs a buddy to hang out with or needs to be fed/walked, I’m in! I’m respectful of your space and can do whatever you need, as long as detailed instructions are left for me. I will go above and beyond to care for your pet as if it’s my own.

About: I have been in this field for five years! I provide reliable, attentive care tailored to each dog. I’m patient with puppies, gentle with seniors, and make safety and consistency a top priority treating every dog like they’re one of my own. (I have no dogs myself currently) I am free almost every weekend my schedule is very flexible! I also have random week days off here and there. I am out of work by 6 pm during most week nights! I have an apartment that is a cozy and clean place to stay! There is lots of grass and outdoor area for the dog to play!

“Patrick came for a meet and greet and understood the needs of my reactive dog. He did great with her and she warmed right up to him. He took care of her specialty food needs as well as medication. He was also very responsive and kept us updated. We will definitely reach out to him for future sits.”

“Lynne is amazing and our pup had the absolute best time with her! She's caring and attentive and respectful of guidelines/instructions! I couldn't recommend her highly enough!”

“Steven is great! He’s friendly and our dogs couldn’t have been happier and more well taken care of when we got home. He was quick to take our sitting job in a pinch and we look forward to having him hang with our dogs again in the future!”
