Dog Walking Halfmoon

“Melanie took great care of Finn. She took the time to walk him as agreed and provided an update and picture.”

About: I have had dogs and cats in my life since as long as I can remember. I have gone through 5 dogs growing up and have always been surrounded by the pets of friends and family! I’ve always loved every kind of animal, I believe the bond between a dog or cat and their human is truly unconditional. I’m eager to meet and care for more furry friends! I am a full-time hairstylist. Though I am scheduled for the same hours each week, sometimes I have slower weeks than others and my weeks are never always the same. I am looking for Rover as a side job to help me out during my slower days! I live in an Inlaw apartment under my mom‘s house. We have a fenced in backyard. I only have one cat in my apartment, and my mom has two dogs that are very friendly. We have a walking trail along a river across the street from our house!

“Heidi was absolutely amazing. She kept me updated every step of the way. Will definitely recommend to anyone.”

“Our dog has special medical needs so we can’t trust just anyone with her care. Rachelle made us feel comfortable right away and our dog loved her. We will definitely be using her when I go back to work in the office.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs most of my life. This is the first time since I was 6 years old that I don't have a pup to take care of. I grew up in a very pet oriented household (including cats, dogs and pet pigs). I used to volunteer with my mom at the Mohawk Humane Society so I have a lot of experience with all different kinds of dogs. I live in a great walkable neighborhood with lots of greenery trails. I do work full time so I am not available from 8am-5pm but I have a very flexible schedule on weekends and nights after 5pm. I currently work full time at a Cardiologist Practice so I am available for walks and dog sitting on weekends only. I am available after 6pm for night time dog walks as well. I live in a very walkable area with lots of trails / sidewalks that I personally enjoy walking on daily. I do not personally have any animals so I have a lot of space and attention to give to a pup.

About: I've been pet sitting for many years and now will be expanding onto Rover. I know our pets do so much for us and should be treated as family I'm dedicated to taking care of each customer with respect and professionalism, with or without 4 legs. I know you will feel at ease when away from your pet I'm dedicated to taking care of each customer with respect and professionalism, with or without 4 legs. I know you will feel at ease when away from your pet

“Loren was able to accommodate me at the last minute and she did a wonderful job with my pup. Would recommend to others!”

About: As a former caregiver for elderly and disabled individuals, I’ve had the privilege of not only caring for people, but also the pets and homes they deeply love. In many cases, pets are family — and I treat them that way. Through my work in home health and private care, I’ve provided daily support that included: • Feeding pets on consistent schedules • Administering medications when needed • Walking dogs and cleaning up after them • Cleaning litter boxes and maintaining pet hygiene • Providing companionship, playtime, and emotional comfort • Monitoring behavior and health changes • Maintaining a clean, safe, and organized home environment I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty to play with your pups. They also can have playtime with other pups if allowed. I have a fenced and two friendly dogs to keep your furry friend safe. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I can provide grooming and training services.

About: I have taken care of animals for over 10 years. I worked at two doggie daycares in CT. Each were different environments such as in home and pack care. I really enjoyed building relationships with the animals and owners. It’s a passion of mine. I’m currently looking for something to offset school and life costs, I have recently decided to go back to school to study radiology. I would like something I can do around my schedule. I do work from 7am-3pm. I have three cats, I take care of them like my children. They only get the best! I would take care of your fur baby like my own.

“Glenn and Diana’s care of my big dog has been such a weight off my shoulders. He has some special needs and they didn’t hesitate to help. Also so appreciative of the questions they ask and how much they care!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs all my life primarily for friends and family. I’ve taken care of german shepards, labradors, pit bulls, and many more. I’ve even more recently fostered a kitten for a few months as she waited to be adopted. I will make sure your furry friend is played with, fed, walked, snuggled (if they like that) and most importantly loved! I work as a waitress so my hours vary depending on the week. Usually shifts are 5 hours but can go up to about 10 hours if I am out on a double. I average about 30 hours a week. I can house up to two dogs in my home, however my backyard is only partially fenced in. I will not take dogs from different families/bookings at the same time. I am a very clean and tidy person so you do not need to worry about coming home to a mess. I am respectful of other peoples belongings and will only use what you tell me I am allowed to use.

“Lucas was able to walk our dogs same day. He provided excellent care to our animals and took them for a 30 minute walk for a very fair and reasonable price.”

About: I not only love caring for animals, but learning all their quirks and personalities. I am very familiar with the patience and love it takes to care for seniors, and the space many animals want from humans (especially new ones). I am happy to meet them where they’re at and hopefully brighten up their day! I have lots of experience with giving pills, special diets, etc. as well. I learn fast and take animal care very seriously. I’m currently working part time and studying to apply for grad school, so I have plenty of time! I often am doing one of my many hobbies or spending time with loved ones, which can easily be shared with your little loves too. At home, I am vigilant about dangers for my cat when I am not around and triple check to make sure she is safe and she can’t get into anything. My main priorities are to make sure she is healthy, happy, and enriched!

About: I’ve owned animals my whole life, but didn’t get into professional animal care till about 2 years ago. Since then I have worked at several daycares and been the Assistant Manager at one! I’ve been around all types of pups from your most nervous dogs to your ultra reactive barkers. I’m always willing to work with you and your dogs! I have plenty of time to see your pups as I work primarily in the morning. I am also very flexible with drop-ins and can do most last minute appointments. DISCLAIMER: I do not stay overnight for my house-sitting requests. I have 5 dogs of my own that while I’d love to bring them with me, I cannot. I am able to be there first thing in the AM and as late as needed in the afternoon. My own pup loves other dogs so if you’re comfortable with your pup having a doggy friend, she is able to tag along! I am comfortable with any necessary oral medication administering, normal feedings, and normal play time with the pups! I am also able to do light training if interested. If needed, I can also do nail trims for an additional price.

About: My name is Stuart, I am relocating to the area as I am starting a position at Albany Medical Center (AMC) in October. As I wait to begin my next chapter, nothing would make me more happy than to spend time with animals! I have always had a knack for the outdoors and have always had a soft spot for animals. I am an avid runner and am almost always be found running or hiking. I can guaranteed your dog will get the exercise and care he/she needs under my supervision. I have experience volunteering at the Lake Placid Vet as-well as volunteer experience at the Saranac Lake Animal Shelter. I have house sat /walked several dogs such as Australian shepherds, Labs, Bernie’s and Doodles in the past. If you have any additional questions please feel free to reach out to me! I just started a new position at AMC and work wonky hours so please message me to confirm availability! If I am not working at AMC, I am free on both weekdays and weekends and I’m flexible to work around schedules. I have a three-story townhouse apartment. There is fenced in dog parks within the complex for easy bathroom visits as well as prolonged paved trails right next to my apartment that go into the woods for longer walks in the evening around lunchtime and in the morning. Dog Gates secure the dog within our second floor, preventing entry to third floor bedrooms and first floor mudroom. Dogs will have eyes on them at all times when not with owner.

About: I’ve taken care of many pets in my life as I used to live on a farm growing up. I treat them all as if they’re my kids. I have a part time job as a nurse at a nursing home and I have two children in the home but over the ages of 15, other than that I have no young kids or other pets. I have a fenced yard with plenty of room to play! As well I have a park 2 mins from my home that I can take any pet I’m caring for.

About: My love for animals began early on once I rescued my first childhood pet. Throughout my life I have walked and taken care of animals however, my love grew insurmountably when I rescued my first dog (Gordy) myself. Gordy and I loved walking, hiking, going on adventures, and snuggling. Unfortunately, in November 2024 he was diagnosed with a variety of complicated health problems and passed away in April 2025. That journey led me have experience in handling diabetic dogs (giving insulin, being aware of behavioral changes, and giving medication). I also have some experience/knowledge in dog training as Gordy was a canine good citizen. I am acutely aware of how to successfully walk and handle hyperactive pups and love to provide other enriching activities. I am communicative and love interacting with both dogs and humans and I find it important to gain the trust of you as I know all too well how much your pup means to you. I am a licensed mental health counselor who currently works primarily at home. I have a flexible schedule allowing plenty time for a good walk and enrichment while also providing appropriate downtime and attention. While I do live in an apartment, I have access to a number of parks in the Troy area while also willing to travel to surrounding areas for more fun.

About: I am a full time Physical Therapist. One of my interests outside of my career is dogs. I have two rescue dogs and continue to foster and help transport dogs from this same rescue. I am new to this app and look forward to meeting new dogs along the way! Evenings and weekends for dog walking. Available to dog sit at my house at anytime, fenced in yard and must get along with other dogs. I have a fenced in yard and two friends dogs. A quiet neighborhood for some nice walks, too. Plenty of care and love and toys.
