About: My name is Kylie and I’ve always had such a strong passion for animals. I’m currently in school to be a licensed veterinary technician. While I pursue this, I also work full time in an animal emergency clinic. I have had 2+ years of animal emergency experience, including large dogs and cats, and even reptiles like snakes! I am comfortable pilling animals and have direct access to emergency care 24/7 in case your fur babies need it❤️. I currently own 2 cats of my own and a ball python. I’ve owned large dogs my whole life including a Cane Corso & Giant Schnauzer! I currently work full time in the animal emergency clinic. My schedule is Tuesday 11a-11p - Friday 7a-7p - Saturday 1p-1a and I do pick up shifts here and there. With this being said, I can come by before and/or after my shifts. I am currently not accepting boarding as my current living situation is not feasible for more animals than I currently own. I can care for pets in your home!

Katharine was extremely easy to work with! She assisted in fulfilling a last minute request, and got along great with my dog! She was able to get my pup to take a walk and eat her food, which are often difficult tasks due to my dogs anxiety. Would 100% recommend Katharine to others!!

About: I’ve had my own animals, both cats and dogs (mainly cats) since I was 6 years old. I’ve had to administer insulin before to my diabetic cat that has since passed. My experience with dogs are mainly of the bigger size (I had a pitbull/boxer mix and a pure bred chow chow). I’m currently working as a Direct Support Professional overnights 9pm-9am Thursday through Saturday (technically Sunday 9am). So I’m pretty open for picking up last minute gigs if needed. I would love to have a break down of your pets day to day. Typically when they are most ready to play or eat. When potty breaks need to be done around.

Felicity has been great - she helped get the puppies settled into their new home this week, is very communicative and flexible, and the pups are settling in fast. Moving is always hard and she has helped make it all go more smoothly. Very grateful!

Jessica went above and beyond for Daisy! She was so patient and understanding of our shelter dog's need for slow intros and some extra support learning to walk politely on the leash. She was super communicative and took care to follow all the instructions we gave her. We recommend her highly to anyone who needs walking/petsitting services!

About: I'm a cat and dog mom (cats are 10, pup is 7) with over 7 years of dog walking experience. I follow leash and cleanup laws and whatever your pet rules are for your fur babies! I work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule! I'm most available on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, with plenty of weekend availability. Between the hours of 8am - 4pm are best for me. I have a fenced, dedicated dog park far removed from main roads with plenty of grass. I always have doggy doo bags available for cleanup.

About: Hi, I’m hoping to become your pet’s new bestie. I’m a lifelong animal lover who genuinely gets excited about wagging tails, purring greetings, dramatic cat stares, zoomies, and all the little quirks that make every pet unique. Whether you need house sitting, dog walking, cat care, or a flexible helping hand, I’m happy to adapt to your pet’s routine. Early morning walks? No problem. Midday potty breaks? Absolutely. Evening snuggles and overnight stays? Happy to report for duty. I believe pets are happiest when they feel safe, loved, and understood, so I do my best to keep their routine consistent while giving them plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and care. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own — with patience, kindness, respect, and probably a few extra compliments about how adorable they are. I’m comfortable with dogs, cats, and pets with big personalities, shy personalities, senior personalities, and “I run this house” personalities. My goal is simple: give you peace of mind while making sure your pets feel happy, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. If your pet enjoys walks, cuddles, playtime, treats, or simply having a calm and caring human nearby, we’ll probably get along great. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! I offer a flexible schedule and understand that every pet has different needs. Whether you need early morning walks, evening drop-ins, overnight house sitting, or care while you’re traveling, I’m happy to work with your routine. My goal is to keep your pet’s day as normal and stress-free as possible while you’re away. When caring for pets in your home, I treat both your home and your pets with the same respect and care I would my own. I’ll follow your instructions closely—from feeding schedules and medications to favorite walking routes, playtime, and bedtime routines. I know every pet is unique, and I’m happy to adapt to whatever helps them feel safest, happiest, and most comfortable while you’re away. Communication is important to me, so you can expect regular updates and photos for extra peace of mind.

About: I work part time and am pretty flexible with my schedule. My fiancée and I currently have 4 cats but I grew up with dogs. I love dog sitting for friends and family. My previous dog was diabetic so I have given insulin and have with experience with senior dogs. I currently work part time so I have a lot of time to play with your animals! Our cats love to cuddle and to go for walks in their stroller. I use automatic feeders for dry food and give them wet food once a day. I’ve pet sat where animals are free fed or prefer to be fed at a specific time.

About: I’ve owned dogs ever since I was 8, and I’ve always loved and cared for them with no question. I love to feed, walk, bathe, and just hangout with dogs. Can’t wait to meet all of your pups!!! I’m currently a full time online college student that sets her own schedule! I am pretty open and free all day to hangout with pups! I have a large fenced yard and I always bring running shoes because I know some dogs love to play! And some even love to try and make escapes, which is why I’ll always have treats and commands ready!

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! 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. My times are flexible if yours are as well. I work retail, and my schedule changes from week to week. I will always be able to committ to one visit a day for all services, but may double check with you if your times are flexible, especially for multiple day bookings. 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. **Please be aware of and respect my service radius and availability windows. My lower sitting fees are a result of a smaller service area and limited availability due to a separate work schedule. If you need a walk, please book a walk and not a drop in. Drop ins are for fenced in private yards, cat visits, and other similar situations.** Thank you so much for your understanding!! 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 have, of course experience as a pet lover as a young child, merely watching and walking the dogs, feeding and changing litter/ picking up after the dogs. I never fully had responsibility and experience until I adopted my pal Leo. He is a high energy lab retriever and puts me through every step of patience! All in all, it has taught me to be stern and serious when needed, but flip it around to fun and playful as well. My boy knows to respect me and listen when i give a command. I know with my body language and direct nature will ensure your pups and kitties are loved and watched over. I will give your pets the time and attention you allow and ensure that while you are away there is plenty of fun to be had, and plenty of adventure as well :) I will be enrolling in school online at SNHU and will be taking courses at home. I will have afternoons and evenings off, So, plenty of free time for your beloved furry companions. I have experience with all types of dogs, not so much cats, but i am a day by day learner! I take everything into opportunity to gain a new skill. I will ensure your pet feels safe and secure with me, all of their needs will be met so long as they are in my care! :)

FAQs for Dog Walking - Guilderland Center

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Guilderland Center on Rover is $13.32 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking 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 Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 1,071 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Guilderland Center. 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 your Guilderland Center. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Guilderland Center.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 Guilderland Center. On Rover:

  • 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 97% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
