“Shirley takes amazing care of our dog when we go out of town for trips. We feel so safe when he is under her care and can tell she truly does care about our little guy! Would recommend her to anyone and everyone!”
“Lindsay was absolutely wonderful with Dylan. She went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable, cared for, and getting plenty of attention during her visit. Dylan can be a sensitive guy, and it meant so much to know he was in such kind and capable hands while I was away. She was thoughtful, communicative, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. I came away feeling completely at ease knowing Dylan had been so well looked after. I would trust Lindsay with him anytime and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their pets.”
“Mary was awesome! We have 3 large dogs so it's always tricky to find someone who feels comfortable and is good with them. We have been very back and forth about in-house sitting and drop-ins and Mary made it so comfortable and easy. She was very attentive to our dogs needs (two of them take medications) and she was really communicative about them when she dropped in and sent pictures. We will use Mary again!”
“Ashley was wonderful! She took on our cats at the last minute and made she everything was taken care of. She was very sweet and even brought in some packages off my porch. My cats and I thank you!”
“Sarah took excellent care of 2 dogs & provided reports on activities rtc,, as well as pictures of the happy pups, which was awesome to see. I will definitely book Sarah again!”
“This was our first time connecting with Natalia and we noticed a few things. She is very transparent about the costs, her schedule, and wanting to meet us and our cats in person. We could tell she cares not only about earning a fast buck. I can get pretty picky about how our two cats are cared for. Pretty sure I’m the one that has separation anxiety, not our cats 😅. When she came over, she was very observant and asked lots of questions on our instructions. She was also very careful about making sure our cats didn’t bolt out the door. Our cats love to go outside so when a door opens, they want out asap. We really appreciated knowing we wouldn’t come home to a missing cat. We loved Natalia and would absolutely rebook.”
“Isabelle is an incredible pet sitter and shows true care and love for animals. We adored the daily photos and updates she shared, and felt so much peace knowing our cat was getting attention and affection while we were away. Isabelle was understanding and flexible with our plans when our trip had a minor hiccup that affected our schedule. She’s a genuinely kind person, dependable and professional. I know our cat will miss having her around!”
About: My family has always been referred to as a farm. I know how to take care of of dogs, cats, turtles, snakes, and lizards. So I will take care of about anything you ask me too It gets me out of the house to take care of animals and I’ve always wanted to be a vet but for now this is as close as I can get. I’ve always had a passion of animals I always treat my animals with respect and I always read body language. I will always know if none of my animals are comfortable with what I’m doing and I’ll immediately stop. I treat them with love and respect always!
About: I’ve grown up and been around all types of dogs my whole life. I can be active with younger dogs and laid back with senior dogs. I have a private fenced in backyard and a dog park at our building so your dog will get plenty of fresh air and sunshine! We can go on morning and afternoon walks, frequent potty breaks and play with toys in the backyard. The stay can also be relaxing if your dog does not have a lot of energy. Your dog will be under our watch besides daily trips to the gym and occasional errands. All eating schedules and medications can be accommodated during the stay.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was very young, including watching neighbors dogs while they were away. More recently during my first year of college I walked two borzois a few times a week during the summer. I also stayed overnight taking care of a friend’s lab for an entire week. I am currently not working as I just applied to physician assistant programs, and am waiting to hear back. I am available every day of the week, but most likely not weekends. I have a car so I am able to transport your pets if needed. I am willing to drive to client’s homes to care for pets since I unfortunately am not allowed pets in my apartment.
“So grateful to Lindsey for her flexibility and willingness to come hang with my pup. She gave thorough updates and cared for Marla like she was her own. I would have no hesitation to work with her again!”
About: I grew up around dogs and never miss the chance to offer a walk. I learn and adapte fast to your dog’s needs and personality. I love being active and outside. I’m saving up for a PT certification, so be one pet at a time! I’m currently waiting for w-2 job to start so have a lot of free time in my hands. I know leaving a pet with someone new can be stressful. My goal is to give you some peace of mind and keep you informed on everything we do and how it’s going. Typically fresh bowl of water, litter box is clean at least three times a day (if not more). Grooming every week and brushing their teeth two times a week, playtime outside at least twice a day.
“Niki did an absolutely amazing job dropping in to take care of my plants and cats! She sent me detailed updates and pictures each day, and I had so much peace knowing everything was taken care of so thoughtfully. My cats are very stranger shy, and I was so happy to see that they were social and relaxed during her visits. Thank you!!”
“We use Mark all the time to help out when we’re out of town or have busy days at work. He treats denali so well and makes me feel so much better about having to be away from him! We’ve seen Mark working with other dogs in our neighborhood a few times and Denali always runs up to him tail wagging and howling. We could not reccomend Mark more!!”
“Jozie has been great. My pups really warmed up to her. She is punctual and communicated well on a simple schedule change. She was also very kind to bring in my packages from the door step. Will definitely request again in the future.”
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Saratoga Springs is $19

Isabelle did a great job watching after both of my cats! She was very attentive to their food and water and cleaned the litter box when needed. Her updates were prompt yet detailed enough and she sent plenty of pictures, all of which helped provide us peace of mind. I would absolutely book Isabelle again!
We had a wonderful experience! Lela took amazing care of our dogs, Marlie and Theo, and kept us well updated so we had complete peace of mind. Lela was also so responsive and kind with accommodating any of our needs or change of plans. It’s clear she truly loves animals, and we will be booking her again. Highly recommend! 💛
Jose and Jessica did an amazing job taking care of Betty and Jughead while I was on vacation! They were reliable, communicative and gave me complete peace of mind knowing my pets were in such caring hands. They followed all of my instructions perfectly, and I came home to two very happy, well-cared-for pets. I truly appreciate everything they did and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy pet sitters. Thank you both so much!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Saratoga Springs on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 4,132 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Saratoga Springs. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Saratoga Springs stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter 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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Saratoga Springs. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters 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 sitter.
