“Ashley’s fantastic. Prompt flexible friendly engaging good with my pup. What more can you ask for. 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!”



“Janet is great! Came to us very last minute and provides detailed updates on her time with our dog.”


“Sarah was amazing. We had a last minute family emergency and had to find a dog walker for Chepe. Sarah stepped up and walked Chepe twice for 2 days. Chepe loved her and enjoyed his walks. Would recommend Sarah anytime!”


“I had to go out of town for work with less than a 48 hour notice. My usual sitter wasn’t available, so I reached out to Sidney to look after my dog, Gooper, and she was prompt in messaging me back to set up a meet and greet that day. The entire time she provided eager and enthusiastic care for my dog and was right on time with the feeding and walking schedule. I could not have asked for a better sitter and I encourage anyone who is in a similar position as I was to hire her.”

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 spring semester, I am typically available ALL DAY ON WEEKENDS and at certain times throughout the week. On MONDAY AND FRIDAY, I am usually available from 9:30am-3pm, and 6:00pm-10pm. On WEDNESDAY I am available from 9:30am-3pm. I am typically unavailable on TUESDAYS AND THURSDAYS until 6:00pm-10pm. IMPORTANT: I will not be available in the Albany area after May 6th, 2025, because I will be going back home for summer vacation. 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.

“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.”


About: Having been surrounded by many dogs since a young age, I have experience with dogs of all sizes. I have pet-sat for family and friends with dogs of various personalities—tame, food-crazy, anxious, and more. My own pet, an indoor cat, required a lot of patience and attention after bringing him home from the shelter. He now displays a social and energized personality. I apply the same level of love and attention to any pet I care for, and I will for your own pet too! I am currently a university student, meaning that I am often available during the typical 9 to 5 workday. Because of my flexible schedule, I would be happy to take last-minute bookings! I am more than willing to meet any accommodations, as my priority is to ensure the health and safety of your pets. My own pet, an indoor cat, is well-loved with lots of extra attention and care (a.k.a., he’s happy and spoiled).

“Angela was lovely and took great care of our puppies, despite one being extra spicy and the other extra poopy. Always takes them on nice long walks which we usually don’t have the spoons to do ourselves. Thanks so much!”


“Marybeth is a great dog Walker and did well by my pet. Very trustworthy and made sure I was stress free while on vacation.”



About: I am an Animal Welfare Professional of more than 8 years now. I have handled shy/fearful/fractious/elderly/diabetic & more cats, shy/anxious/reactive/high-energy & more dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets, rats, mice, hamsters, gerbils, fish, chickens, ducks, pigs, sheep, prairie dogs, and probably more critters that I'm forgetting! I also have experience medicating, injecting, quarantining, and cleaning for disease control and prevention. I am a cat mama x 2. I've had my senior lady since she was a month old, and now she's 12! I also foster kittens! Everyday I give my 2 cats fresh water, scoop their 3 litter-boxes, and feed them 4 smaller meals throughout the day with an automatic feeder. I also brush my long-haired senior cat every day, and trim their nails every 2 weeks. I am able to keep cats and foster kittens separate in my front room. They get fresh water, dry and/or wet food, and scooped litter daily.

About: I don’t have any experience with having a dog because my parents never wanted one but I want a dog so bad and will take care of your dog really well! Dogs are just so sweet and happy and I would love to take care of your dog! I have a bunny who acts basically like a puppy, he runs after treats I throw and loves to be petted, I’m just missing that dog in my life! I’d love to have a furry friend that I can take care of even if I don’t own him, but I’ll treat him as if I do and I will take great care of him when you need it and that will take your worries away! I do instacart and doordash so I have my own schedule whenever I want and can work around that since I choose when to work! I won’t take pets to my home, but in your home I will follow your instructions perfectly because I know that a fur baby is family!

About: I've had a passion for animals my entire life, growing up surrounded by pets of all kinds. Since I was 12, I've been pet sitting, gaining valuable experience in caring for various breeds and personalities. I understand the unique needs of each pet, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and happy while you're away. Whether it's walks, playtime, or just cuddles on the couch, I treat every pet like my own. You can trust that your furry friend will be in great hands with me! I’m currently a nursing student at Siena and can fit stops in between my classes and the longest I will be gone should be 8 hours. Monday and Tuesday are my busiest days but I am still available for drop in’s before 1:30 and am happy to do overnights. I provide loving and attentive care tailored to each pet's needs. At a client's home, I follow their specific instructions, ensuring the pet's routine is maintained. This includes feeding, walking, playtime, and administering medication as needed. My goal is to provide peace of mind to clients knowing their pets are well-cared for.

About: Hello there! I'm Malini, a 24-year-old dog enthusiast with a lifetime of canine companionship. From the tiniest toy breeds to the largest furballs, I've embraced them all. You can meet Gizmo, my 12-year-old Shih Tzu, and together, we're ready to welcome your furry friend into our dog-loving home. Nestled in my apartment, surrounded by a dog-friendly neighborhood, we have ample space for joyful romps and adventures. With numerous dog parks just a paw's reach away, your pet is in for a treat! Despite my full-time job, rest assured that your dog will never feel lonely—someone is always around to shower them with attention and care. Your dog's well-being is my top priority, and I bring a wealth of experience to ensure they feel loved, safe, and cherished during their stay. Looking forward to adding more paw prints to our happy home! I currently work full time, but am able to come home as needed and work from home. My weekends are typically all open. I am flexible with my availability to cater to your dogs needs! There is someone always at my residence. It can be my mom or dad. We have a ton of free space outside where dogs can play, run and walk.

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: My husband and I love dogs and cats! We are happy to do drop ins and walks before and after work most days! We have a dog and two cats of our own and will treat yours like family! I work full time in the office and am home weekends and evenings. My husband works mostly remote and has flexible hours to play and walk the dogs. He takes our puppy on a daily 2-3 mile walk, with a fetch break included! We usually walk to Shaker high school, head around your own neighborhood, or take a ride to colonie town park. We have a yard for long leash play. We also have lots of safe walking space and local parks and play areas that we walk to daily!
