About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of animals since I was 13, and I’m especially comfortable with cats and dogs. I have loads of patience for cats and dogs with anxiety, kittens and puppies, and senior pets as well. They’re family, and I love to help in any way I can to ensure your family is happy and healthy! I work full time as a tattoo artist Tuesday-Saturdays from 2-8:30pm. I am available before 1:30 pm Tuesdays and Saturdays, anytime before 5pm on Sundays, and before 7pm on Mondays! However, please feel free to message me about nights Sundays and Mondays as I’m happy to try and move things around. If you need someone at your home to care for pets, I can be there! I’ve watched other people’s lovely pets overnight in the past, and as long as I’m given somewhat of a tour/instructions I am happy to care for them overnight!

“Stephanie was very patient with my senior dog. She informed me about what happened each day. I am happy with my experience with Rover, and with Stephanie in particular.”

Robert Y.

“Emily is incredible! She goes above and beyond sharing photos after walks and giving plenty of exercise. My goldendoodles absolutely adored her when I was on vacation and I was so grateful that she could do mornings walks. I highly recommend Emily when she came to visit before, she was super attentive asked questions, was super knowledgeable already and knew exactly what to do! I will definitely be rebooking with Emily for any future dog needs 😊”

About: I love all animals so much I will do anything to protect your fur baby and keep them safe! I have some experience with puppies and lots of experience with older dogs! I have pet sat multiple times, taken dogs on walks and outside to play! Pet care fits into my daily routine because I have lots of time on my hands, my mornings are typically free as well as my afternoons I will keep your pet safe in your home by double checking any locks on crates, doors, or fences I will have eyes on your fur baby at all times to make sure nothing happens to them!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs that were all sizes. Friends and family put their trust in me to watch their beloved pets for years and i’ve delivered love when taking care of them. I’m currently enrolled at SUNY University at Albany which means that I have plenty of time to help you take care of your fuzzy friends. I have a large fenced yard that your pet can run around and play in and I have toys and treats to also keep them happy.

About: I love animals. Having 4 pets (2 dogs and 2 cats) they are my world and are spoiled more than most. Many of my friends and family have said if anything ever happened to them they would want me to take care of their pets. They just know I want what’s best for every animal I meet and will provide the same love and care I do for my own. I have deep expertise in caring for senior dogs, puppies, and have a strong knowledge in leash reactive dogs. I make sure to dedicate the time that pets need to be happy and cared for. As a pet parent myself, I know how sticking to a routine is so important for both them and us and am here to make your time away as worry free as possible! I am available for housesittings Friday nights-Sunday at 10 am and also holidays. Nick and I work together on drop-ins and are available Thursday-Sundays to hang with your babies! 🐾 Communication about your pets’ needs and routines and behaviors is going to help me best take care of them. Having a clear plan about what our shared expectations are will create a great rover experience. Let’s meet and establish a connection before you go away to ensure your pet’s comfortability with me!

About: I am a 27 year old wife and mom to one baby, one dogs and a cat. I have ample experience with training animals, as I trained my two dogs, one whom passed and one who is now 8, on my own and am in the process of training my 2 year old cat. I am skilled in senior animal care, as I grew up with Labrador’s my entire life who required senior and end of life care, such as diapering and mobility. One of my dogs has a chronic illness, which has made me trained in medication management and administration to ensure he remains healthy. My pets are my whole world, so you can know that in my care your pets will never be without attention and love! While I am busy with my own family, I can make myself available any day and any time to give your animals attention and love! As I am the primary caregiver to my child, I will have him with me for walking. However, he will be strapped to my chest in a carrier and unable to directly interact with your pet, unless you tell me it’s okay! I currently live in an apartment, but my dog is walked multiple times a day for extended periods to allow him to explore the world and get some energy out! This would be the same with your pets. My cat is consistently entertained, and I usually spend a great chunk of my nights wearing him out.

About: (she/her/hers) I mean, who WOULDN'T adore those two orange boys? 🥰🥰 Chili and Chalupa were adopted from Rocky Mountain Feline Rescue in Denver, Colorado, in January 2023. They rule the house, and I can't wait to love your pet like I love them! **As of 2026, I am returning to pet sitting after a long hiatus. Please excuse the response rates on my profile as I work hard on making sure it reflects my usual 95%+** I am often available for same day appointments within a 3 mile radius of Slingerlands. I am flexible with responsibilities as well- let me know if you want your space left a certain way (AC on, bathroom door closed, etc) and I'll make sure you have peace of mind about your home while you're out. I love taking photos of your pets! I often send lots of updates during walks and drop ins, from when I get there, to what we're doing, to one more before I go. I have a very flexible schedule and I am happy to commit to both long and short term care. Travel in the Guilderland area is not a problem. Please don't hesitate to send a message if you aren't sure I can meet your needs. I'd love to chat! I am known for being very thorough in cleaning up after myself, whether that's keeping your kitchen clean or cleaning up after dogs on a walk.

About: I've been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember, and I have experience with dogs and cats of all kinds. I have a deep respect for all animals, including those that are shy or have special needs, and I'm committed to giving every animal the care they deserve. I'm available on most weekends and holidays. I occasionally have weekdays open as my work schedule allows. I will have Fridays available for part of the summer. When introducing myself I allow the animal to approach me first, I take things slow if they're shy or nervous. I'm familiar with dog and cat body language so I can recognize signs of stress. When walking dogs I'm always aware of my surroundings and will adjust the route if I need to.

About: 🐾 I’m absolutely obsessed with cats—and honestly, that’s the biggest reason I’m here. Rover isn’t just a side thing for me… I genuinely love spending time with cats and getting to know all their unique personalities. At home, I care for three cats of my own, so I understand everything from playtime energy to quiet, independent moods. I’m also known locally as a stray cat feeder and caretaker, and I always keep cat food in my car—because you truly never know when a hungry kitty might need help. Caring for animals isn’t something I “turn on”—it’s just part of who I am every day. While cats are my specialty, I’ve recently been spending more time around dogs as well and have become increasingly comfortable and confident with them. I’m patient, attentive, and quick to adapt to different temperaments, whether your pet is energetic, shy, or somewhere in between. When you trust me with your pet, you’re getting someone who is: ✔️ Reliable & responsive ✔️ Gentle, patient, and detail-oriented ✔️ Experienced with multiple-cat households ✔️ Truly passionate about animal care I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own—with love, respect, and close attention to their needs. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, medication, or just keeping them company, I’ve got it covered. I’m also very flexible and able to travel, so feel free to reach out with whatever you need—I’m happy to make it work!! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine. I recently bought a house here in Albany, so it’s just me and my studies now — which means I have plenty of time and flexibility to devote to caring for your cats. As a law student, my classes are only on Mondays and Wednesdays, so the rest of the week I’m fully available to spend quality time making sure your cat (or cats!) get the love, attention, and care they need. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping your cat’s routine consistent and stress-free. That means fresh food and water on schedule, a clean litter box, and plenty of playtime and affection — whether that’s cuddles, brushing, or just quiet company if your cat prefers space. I always make sure to respect your home, follow your instructions closely, and send regular updates so you know your pet is happy and safe. If I’m welcoming a cat into my own home, I create a calm, cozy environment with safe spaces for them to explore or retreat to, depending on their personality. I treat every cat as if they were my own — with patience, attentiveness, and lots of love.

About: Growing up with a German Shepard, learning what is takes to take care of dogs (especially big ones) has been a mission of mine throughout life. I can play with, check up on, and / or walk your pups any day that is posted on my calendar and I will work my schedule around times that are available for you! I am not expecting to pet sit, however if I were I would make sure the water bowl is full, abide to any eating schedules, make sure the pet is in eye-view and all doors and windows are closed, perhaps go for a walk and out to potty if the client approves. :)

“Alexandra has been walking my dog for the past three months, and she has been absolutely wonderful. She is attentive, warm, and truly cares about the dogs she works with. My dog adores her! Her communication is excellent, and the photos she sends are always amazing. I couldn’t ask for a better dog walker.”
