About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and have been caring for them for the past 9 years. We have two friendly dogs of our own who love having new friends, along with our four kids. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home with the dogs throughout the day, so your pup will get plenty of attention, love and companionship. Our home is busy, but full of love, and we have a fenced-in yard where the dogs can safely play and enjoy some outdoor time. I’ll treat your pup like one of my own and keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away. Since I’m a stay-at-home mom, I’m home with our dogs throughout the day, so caring for pets naturally fits into our daily routine. We have plenty of time for play, cuddles, potty breaks, walks and outdoor time in our fenced yard. I love having dogs around and would love to include your pup in our family’s daily routine while they’re staying with us! Whether your pup is staying with us, enjoying a walk, or getting a check-in at home, I’ll treat them like one of my own! For boarding, your dog will stay in our home and be part of our family’s daily routine, with plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, walks, and cuddles. I’m always around to make sure all the dogs are safe with no issues.For walks and check-ins, I’ll make sure your pup gets the exercise, attention and care they need while you’re away. As well as respecting home! No matter what service, I’ll always follow your instructions for feeding, medications, routines and any special needs. I’m happy to send photos and updates so you know your pup is happy and well cared for.
“Lindsay was great! Our dog had a fantastic time with her and she was very communicative. She made sure to ask any questions she had to keep our dog comfortable and safe.”
“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!”
About: I've grown up with cats and the occasional dog boarding. As an adult I've only recently started caring for pets personally again. We have a cane corso & rhodesian ridgeback mixed puppy, a shih tzu / pekinese drama queen as well as several indoor cats. We also have goats, ducks, bunnies, and quail outdoors. Indoors we have caged geckos, chameleon, parakeets, chinchilla, axolotl, fish, snails, shrimp, and aquatic frogs. I work full time so boarding on weekends is easier for me, but weeknights can work depending on the week. I can do early morning or evening walks. I have a fenced yard, we also have a gated living room that we sit in with the dogs when we are all inside together.
“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!!”
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!
“Alex did great helping with our two dogs while we were away. Great communication, on-time visits, and ensured they were well taken care of. He even placed our garbage cans in the street for trash day. Highly recommend!”
“Shirley was amazing! I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience using Rover having Shirley watch our cat. She gave me updates every visit and tons of photos which I really really appreciated. She was great at communicating. I felt very at peace knowing she was checking on him and cared for him. I would definitely love to have Shirley come back in the future when we go out of town. Cannot recommend her enough!! Thanks for everything, Shirley!”
About: I’ve grown up with pets and know the fun and love they need and deserve. Respect and love is important to me and a few of my core values. Trust me to love your babies, and take care of your home! I am a responsible full-time dental hygiene student and am looking to fill my weekends with watching your pets and your home! Weekdays work as long as you are reasonable distance from Orem where my school is so I can provide potty breaks. School hours vary each day, but I am typically in at 8 and out at 3 with a lunch at 12. It may be marked unavailable, but if you think it’d work don’t hesitate to reach out! Responsibility and dependability is who I am. Your pets and your home’s safety are my #1 priority while in my care. As someone who was taught respect growing up, you can trust me to take good care over your belongings and your home.
About: Having 4 friendly dogs, I can confidently say I've built my schedule to accommodate furry friends! I work from home so I'm flexible and available most hours of the day to take care of pets. We have a Poodle, two Cavapoos, and a Bernese Mountain Dog. Please note; I am breeding my Poodle and Bernese, so if you have adult unfixed dogs, daycare/boarding at my place may not be for you. I work from home as a Director of Reporting and Analytics, this gives me a lot of flexibility to control my schedule and accommodate pets. I have a fenced yard, but it's a half fence so not ideal for large jumpers. Our 4 dogs will love to keep your pup(s) company and play. Two crates available when needed.
“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.”
“I was super anxious to leave my fur babies for a week but Isabelle took such good care of them. I checked my petcams and they were happy and I really appreciated the daily report cards. I will definitely book Isabelle again because I know I can trust her to love and care for my "kids" and that means so much to me.”
About: I am known as my neighborhood pet care taker. I was always booked with watching animals! I am super flexible and love to be around animals. I am currently in school part time and have alot of times on my hands! I am very flexible and I love being outdoors and being super active so taking dogs on walk would be amazing I have a fenced home, i’ve had a dog and a cat my entire life. Including taking care of my sister pets all the time at my house. I am pretty strong and able to handle heavier dogs while being gentle
“Lindsey is a star sitter for a reason! She took care of my two cats with so much attention, I was able to fully relax and enjoy my trip. She is also a great commutator which is great for peace of mind! I would recommend Lindsey to anyone!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all kinds since I was young, and neighbors, friends, and family have always trusted me with their pets. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding, bathing, and giving pets the attention they need to feel safe and happy. As a retired military veteran and stay-at-home dad, I bring responsibility, structure, and patience to every pet I care for. Your pets will be treated like part of my family. I recently retired from the military and am currently a stay-at-home dad while I attend school online. This gives me plenty of flexibility and time to care for pets throughout the day. I’m available most weekdays and weekends, and I make sure every pet gets lots of attention, playtime, and care. provide a calm, safe environment with a fenced yard and two friendly dogs who enjoy having company. I’m responsible, dependable, and always make sure pets feel comfortable and loved. I can crate your dog if needed and follow any routines or instructions you prefer to keep your pet safe and happy.
About: The main reason why I am want to start being a dog sitter is that I love taking care of animals. I have been a nanny and taken care of there dogs as well. I love it, but since I have a little less time on my hands I need something just a tad easier. What sets me aside from other dog sitters is that I want them to have much time outdoors as possible. I know its hard when you live in an apartment or just aren't home as much and you have a dog with higher energy and you don't have the time to take them out. I want to be that person that can help you with that issue. I have taken care of my neighbors dogs and also friends dogs while they are away at work. Right now I am just taking some classes getting my bachelors degree so I have lots of time on my hands and would love helping you out! I am looking for additional income, I work a job from 12-6 most days. I have two little dogs, Yoshi and Buddha , that I love and I know they would enjoy making some more doggy friends! I have also potty trained several puppies including my own and I also teach tricks and little cute things like that! Let me know if you're interested :)
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Saratoga Springs is $19
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Saratoga Springs
I always trust that Lindsey will care for my elderly kitty who needs insulin shots twice daily. I have boarded my cat with Lindsey and also booked for drop in visits. I have been very pleased with both arrangements. Lindsey is responsible and trustworthy. She sends me photos every time. I highly recommend Lindsey for pet care.
Shirley took excellent care of my cat while I was out of town for a few days. She was extremely communicative, provided lots of pictures, and my shy cat seemed to come out of his shell for her! I’m so grateful for the peace of mind she provided while I was gone! I’d recommend Shirley to anyone, and I’d definitely book her again in the future. Thank you Shirley!
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!
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!!

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
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
