“Petra is so caring, communicative, and wonderful. She always sends updates and goes above and beyond to take perfect care of our pup, who she loves like her own. She’s also a fantastic houseguest. Highly recommend!”
“We booked our second house sitting experience with Brian, and he was fantastic again! He even took our senior puppy to her vet appointment, as we couldn't make it home in time. Thank you Brian for taking such great care of our girl.”
“Heidi did a wonderful job taking care of our two pets and our home while we were away for 10 days. She took the time to meet with us just after booking and again soon before we left to make sure we were all on the same page with expectations and limitations. She communicates her schedule very well, letting us know when she would be in our home and when she would be out. No issues whatsoever. Thank you, Heidi!”
About: I have 7 years of experience in boarding kennels and doggy daycares, where I’ve cared for pups of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I also have a bit of grooming experience, which has helped me become even more patient and gentle when handling dogs. I’m currently a junior in the Canine Training and Management program at SUNY Cobleskill, where I’ve taken classes in training, behavior, and canine health. I am super passionate about what I do!! I am currently a full time student but I have plenty of availability before ,in-between, and after my classes. I am also completely available on weekends! I will not be able to care for pets in my home since I am living on-campus. Hopefully in the future that will be able to change!
“I couldn’t have asked for better care for my fur babies than with Sue. She went above and beyond and truly treated my fur children like her own! She kept my dog entertained, cuddled, and cared for. Checked on my kitty and even played with her too. She sent me updates that made my heart happy and mind at ease. HIGHLY recommend Sue!!”
About: I am new to dog watching but I grew up with dogs and currently have a 6-year old Ori-Pei and a 6-month old Aussie. I work from home, so I will be here for the duration of your pups stay.

I take care of my pet everyday for free, I’m sure I will be able to take the best of care of your animal! Tyson and Duke are able to roam freely in the house and is allowed on all couches and beds. But if your dog is taught not to be on furniture than I will adjust to make your fur babies as comfortable as possible.

About: Calm, Reliable Overnight Dog Sitter with Large-Breed Experience. I understand that every animal is different. Some dogs love long adventures, others prefer quiet walks. Some cats demand attention, others just want you to refill the food and leave them be. I adjust my care to match your pet’s needs — whether that means a hike, a cuddle session, or just respectful presence and clean routines. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and small animals with all sorts of temperaments — anxious, energetic, elderly, or aloof. I offer overnight stays, dog walks, drop-in visits, and special outings (like private Sniffspot walks for dogs who need extra space). I provide consistent updates, clear communication, and take your animal’s physical and emotional safety seriously. If you’re looking for someone who will meet your pets with kindness, attentiveness. — I’d love to help. I’m happy to accommodate longer stays or multiple dogs — just send a message to discuss your needs! I work part time and make my own schedule. I am frequently available and aside from house sitting I can offer anything from early morning walks to late night check-ins I have reliable transportation and I make sure to provide updates as needed, extra treats and supplies always on hand. Long walks in safe places are a specialty.
About: I don’t just love animals, I have been around them since the day I was born. I have had cats, dogs, birds, and small rodents since I was born. I have taken care of these animals from a very young age and believe I have a natural understanding of pets and their behaviors! I currently work full time at a middle school in Albany where my hours are 8 AM to 3 PM. Otherwise, I am usually free and have more availability on weekends, during school breaks and over the summer. I currently am a cat mom and keep all of my cats indoors. When I owned dogs and other animals in the past, I make sure to tend to their unique needs whether that mean adhering to a medication regimen or putting them in their cage/crate as needed.
“Kathryn was amazing. Prior to her first stay with our puppies she came to the house to meet with us and the dogs. The dogs loved her! She is a genuine animal lover. She stayed several days at the house and sent so many nice pictures and videos of the dogs enjoying her stay. It was so nice to go out of town and not worry. She took excellent care of them and treated them as if they were her own. Even brought her pups to the house for some playtime to wear out the puppy. We would 1000% use Kathryn whenever she is available. While she stay with our dogs, she also watched my Mom's cat down the street. My mom was thrilled with all the pictures and updates. Her cat is not fond of very many people and my Mom was so happy to see him interact with Kathryn. She did an amazing job.”
About: I am currently attending SUNY Cobleskill and am in the Animal Science Bachelor of Science program. I'm planning on becoming a vet! I have experience living and working with all types of animals, including dogs, cats, and numerous farm animals. I love to go on long walks and hikes with dogs out in the beauty that surrounds us! I work part time, mostly in the early morning, at a local coffee shop/bakery. I am free most days after 1pm. I am flexible with scheduling. I will not be providing at home services at this time. My services will be located in the community and at the client’s home. I know of many good walks and hikes to take your pet on. I own my car and will be happy to transport the dog if you feel comfortable with that.
“I have two cats that are very picky about who they will be around and I selected Eydid because their profile shows how passionate they are with cats. It was my first time using Rover or any sitter and I was definitely anxious about it. Eydid is amazing - he took the time to get to know my cats, sit with them, and play with them. They love Eydid and that says a lot! Eydid was very respectful of my home and provided me with great updates and pics & videos of the cats having fun. 10/10 would select again. In fact I already have booked Eydid for another session when I am traveling out of the country :D”
