Top rated Latham dog walkers

“Great communication & service. I was in a terrible predicament &;Heather was great & alleviated a lot of stress. My dog is a great judge of character & he took to Heather immediately. Highly recommend”



“This was just our first meet and greet, but she did great! My dog is a rescue and has a lot of fears and anxiety. Linda was very patient, and I saw her using some of the same techniques a dog trainer told me about. We're looking forward to seeing her again!”



“Evelyn is a wonderful and responsible walker and sitter and takes great care of my dog Freckles. She always spends a full 30 minutes with her (and often longer) and makes sure she has lots of love and attention while I’m away at work. When it’s very hot she pays special attention to Freckles’ comfort and will take her back inside to cool off if she needs it, but still makes sure the visit is the full length of time. I always receive detailed follow-up and adorable photos when the walk is done. Evelyn has had to deal with a couple accidents and has been gracious in cleaning them up before putting Freckles back in her crate. I (and Freckles) highly recommend Evelyn!”


“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.”



“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 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!

“Our puppy was loved and cared for while we were away she is just the best!!!! We didn’t want to leave our 5 month old puppy for a week but it was much easier knowing Katrina and her daughter were here playing and keeping her feeling loved while we were not here!!! Can’t recommend her enough!!!!”


About: Hello! My name is Michelle. I have been caring for animals since I was a young kid, because I must say, my negotiation skills and PowerPoints were strong as a 10 year old trying to convince my parents I needed hamsters, guinea pigs, and even a horse (all of which I had). I have consistently provided overnight care a German Shepard and Terrier Mix. I have also provided overnight care for a family member's chihuahua and I have a pitbull of my own. I am confident around countless types of dogs with various temperaments (anxious, food aggressive, excessive energy, dogs with health issues). I am kind, gentle, and overall just a huge animal lover looking to spend time with more pups!! I can always be counted on to be on time and to be someone you really trust with your family member. I have very flexible availability because I currently make my own hours as a business owner. I can make most times work depending on other bookings. I will provide care in my clients home by respecting their space and provided boundaries in place to keep the animal safe/happy. I will always follow the rules given to me to ensure all parties are safe.

About: I have many years of dog care experience with dogs of all ages. I have been a dog sitter and walker for neighbors, friends, and family dogs treating them with love and the level of care as if they were my own. I have also fostered puppies (an amazing experience)! I believe every dog deserves someone to love and take care of them, and that is my mission for your furry friend! I am currently a sophomore at Siena College studying biology while playing Division 1 soccer. Currently during the fall semester: - MONDAYS AND FRIDAYS: Available from 8:00am-3pm, and after 6:00pm. - TUESDAYS: Available after 6:00 pm. - WEDNESDAY: Available from 1:30pm-3pm and after 6:00 pm. - THURSDAYS: Unavailable all day. - SATURDAYS and SUNDAYS: Available all day. IMPORTANT: I am a student-athlete, so my schedule may change. However, I am quick with my responses and willing to work with you to create the best pet care experience. The safety of your dog is my top priority. I have no problem using crates or gates, or following specific rules given to be by the dogs owner.

About: Need a little extra interaction for your fur baby? I'm happy to help out. I have been dog walking and house sitting for friends and family over the last 10 year. I'm great for a morning or midday walk or even just an extra potty break til you can get home. I have had 15 pets in my life and all live to a ripe old age in a loving home. I dont currently have pets due to lease restrictions. But Im happy to spend my free time with your fur baby. I'm available all day Sunday and Monday, Tuesday-Friday 7am-3pm. Saturday can be negotiable. If you are wanting over night care I am available starting at 11pm. I'm the type of person to double check locks behind me. Im happy to even help with some medication, depensing on the need. The only real restriction for me is no fur babies that have to be muzzled.

About: Do you need someone to walk your pup, feed your cats or simply check in while you’re away? I’m flexible, reliable, caring & willing to work with whomever, as I have experience with cats and dogs of all shapes and sizes! Working at a doggy daycare/boarding business really opened my heart to animals and the stress it can cause them being away from their owners- let me spoil them while you’re away and piece my heart together from loosing my own pup due to old age & kitty from a sickness. Tail wags and cuddles are guaranteed! Treats too (if allowed) Friends and family jokingly “share custody” of their pets as I take them for the day or overnights! I’d prefer a meet & greet before your requested date where we can review a new client (or update your client) intake form to ensure everyone is on the same page! Thank you, I can’t wait to speak with you! I have a fb page, business # and business email as well! I do work a full time job but I’m flexible! I’m up at 4am daily but work 8-5 M-F. I can stop in or pick up any day, let’s chat about what you need and go from there :) distance from work & home vary so where are you? Serving Latham, Albany & Troy, (Maybe Niskayuna) Depending on you & your animals preference and comfortability- I have a 3 story apartment including upstairs, downstairs and basement (access from kitchen) which means we can separate your animal from my kitty or they can be friends. I have a medium sized crate and baby gates available but flexible to your wants / needs. Shared yard but back door and garage access which is no problem if provided a leash!

About: As a lifelong cat parent who grew up surrounded by a variety of animals, I am always happy to spend time with new pets! From volunteering at local shelters to socializing rescues with larger organizations, I have gained an incredible amount of hands-on experience in caring for all kinds of animals, personalities, and temperaments. I’ve been pet, house, and plant sitting for friends and family for over 15 years, responsible for dogs of all sizes, cats, rabbits, and more. I’m happy to keep an eye on younger pets in training and seniors alike, having an ample amount of experience with cleaning up after pets as needed, and several methods of delivering medication. I’m a very flexible and accommodating sitter, who would love getting to know you, your pet, and what your ideal care looks like, if you seek any of my available services :) I have a cat of my own and have owned cats my entire life, so I’m caring for a pet 24/7. I am a teacher, so I have open availability for all weekends and on weekdays, can look after any pet that’s alright being home alone from around 7am to 4pm. I welcome overnights as well! When I am caring for pets in a client’s home, I am mindful of their space, their directions, and using overall judgement to provide the happiest, and most comfortable time for all household pet residents. I work best with written instructions to refer to if needed, am quick to act in emergency situations (I have reliable transport for such instances,) and don’t mind complex instructions relating to pet care at all.
