Dog Walkers in Sherburne, NY

About: I'm very good at training dogs. I have a lot of patience with dogs. I talk dog. Dogs like me and I like them. I like walking dogs as my exercise. I have had and trained many dogs since I was twenty. I care about your dog as much as you. I have two dogs and one of the most important things when I travel is who will take care of my dogs. I want someone who loves them as much as I do and that's what will happen with your dog when it stays with me, lots of love and attention. I feed them on regular schedules and take them for walks on a regular schedule also. I will make sure that they have played, peed, pooped and have plenty of water. I’m available for time to watch dogs. I just moved to the area and I’m working at home and if that changes I’ll let you know but for the most part I can watch dogs 24 seven I don’t have dogs right now, so I do Rover to get my dog to fix. Any size dog is fine I have 8 acres for them to play and if you have a water dog I have a low creek to play in

“Bosco loves Gil and is always well taken care of.”

“Colleen is excellent. She took great care of my puppy. She noticed a sore/ hotspot and arranged for us to get in to see her vet the same day and even volunteered to take him if my schedule didn’t allow.”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have always had a deep love for them. While I’ve primarily worked with horses and cows, I’ve also spent years around dogs and cats. We have our own rescue pup at home, and I’ve helped care for everything from small lap dogs to German Shepherds. There’s always been a family or friends dog around, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I treat every animal like they’re my own. I currently have two side jobs that I have full control over, so I’m able to be flexible and available any time of day or week to care for your pet. Whether it’s early mornings, midday check-ins, or evenings, I can adjust my schedule to meet your needs! When I’m caring for pets in their home, I do my best to stick to their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll follow any instructions you leave closely - whether it’s feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, or giving medications. I respect your home, keep things clean and tidy, and make sure your pets get lots of love and attention while you’re away. I know how important it is to feel confident your pets and your space are in good hands!

About: I carry poop bags & treats on me at all times. I have common vet meds memorized. I own plastic syringes. I have carriers in my car. I’m on a group text list for emergency wildlife rescue. I spend my off hours volunteering at a shelter for cats that also spays/neuters dogs. lol, hi, I’m Eli. I will care for your pet with so much patience, empathy, care, space (if needed), cuddles (if they are asking for it), or whatever is appropriate. Animals can do no wrong out of evil or malice in MOH eyes, they just need guidance and love and help! My biggest flaw as a sitter is that I tend to over communicate as a baseline — usually out of confirming their health / safety first — but I can discern what is an emergency and send summarized updates (i.e. by night or by weekend if housesitting longterm, for example.) So feel FREE to set a boundary; you can’t hurt my feelings. Just let me know how to reach you (message or call) & for what. My husband care for our cats if I need to house-sit, otherwise, this is my full-time gig lately and I absolutely love it! It’s my calling. 🥰 I leave a place better than I found it; I am highly polite and respectful and would never disrespect a client’s home; I treat it like I’m a guest on my best behavior of course!

“Averi was very easy to work with. She is flexible and understanding. When I booked her for four-days, then had to cancel due to a change in circumstances, she immediately responded and helped process the refund. The one day that she took our dogs out for a walk, she walked them for a mile, ensured they had food and water, and she even helped mop up their accidents. When we came home to greet our dogs, they were much calmer than normal. I believe this is due to the time, attention, and care that Averi put into her duties. If we ever need a dog-walker, again, in the future, we will consider Averi first!”

About: Volunteering at shelters and owning an array of pets throughout my life helps me understand fully how to care for a creature. I've never turned away an animal and have worked with nursing birds, rodents, bunnies, and kittens back to health after rescuing them. I also love working with exotic pets like amphibians or reptiles, but mainly I board and walk dogs! I'm very good at reading body language and training stubborn dogs, and working with animals full time would be a dream career. Right now I'm studying premedicine / ecology at UA and taking care of animals over the summers to save money for school! Going to Albany on the 24th! Until then I can board, but afterwards I'm switching my location and removing boarding from my services as I'll be on campus. Large yard with electric fence and 2 extra collars for a medium dog. Home with 3 accessible stories, dog food, treats, litter box, toys and plenty of enrichment. Dog beds and human beds for sleeping, large safe neighborhood for walks!!

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats for my neighbors, friends, and clients for twenty years. I look forward to serving your pets needs. I'm fully insured as well, and I can't wait to meet your pets. I make your pet the priority, your pet's care is very important to me. I can flex my schedule around your needs so you can be worry free. Keep your pet stress free by keeping them home vs. at a kennel. I have a fenced in yard for my pets to play safely. I will respect your home, as if it were mine, and we will keep it mess free!

“Dennis is personable, prompt, and flexible. He offers a variety of services for your canine companion. I appreciated his very thoughtful observation of my dog’s body language, behavior, and preference cues - Elliot can take a moment to warm up to new friends and lives to play with his flirt stick. I would, without reservation, recommend Dennis as your walker, play date companion, and house sitter.”

“This was a great first experience! Briana made an appointment to meet my dogs (and me, but we KNOW it’s about the dogs!). She was intuitive even with this “difficult” breed (Akita). I got pictures from their walks. I’ll absolutely use Rover and hire Briana again!!”

About: Hi, I’m Destiny Bowers, a passionate animal care professional with over 17 years of experience. I specialize in animal training, grooming, and individualized care for pets of all sizes and temperaments—including those who are aggressive or reactive. From senior to young kittens/puppies, dogs, cats, birds, and even snakes, I’ve had the privilege of working with a wide variety of animals, always prioritizing their mental and physical wellbeing. My journey into animal behavior began in college, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, I wasn’t able to complete my degree. However, I plan to return and finish my studies. In the meantime, I’ve continued to expand my expertise through hands-on work in multiple boarding facilities and with the SPCA. I’m also certified in pet first aid and CPR, attending annual recertifications to ensure I’m always prepared to keep your pets safe. Whether your pet needs training, grooming, or personalized care, I’m here to help. I also have extensive experience administering medications and tailoring my approach to fit each pet’s unique needs. I recently have started as a hobby, pet photography, so you will get plenty of photo updates if you book with me. If you’re interested in training, grooming, or photography services, please reach out for a custom quote. For dog walking, house/pet sitting, or drop-in visits, bookings can be made through Rover. I look forward to providing the care and attention your pet deserves! My current schedule allows for all-day play with your pup or kitty! Nothing would please me more!! However, this can change. I do own my own dog training business therefore when I get busy with appointments I will have to update my schedule, luckily most my clients are on vacation currently. If interested in my training or grooming services let me know and I'll give you a quote. I am very very observant of my surroundings. I will NEVER let ANY unknown people or animals near your fur baby. I am very aware of how to best handle aggressive and reactive dogs. You will have video/picture updates of your fur baby while in my care so you can rest assured that they are under only the best care!

We’ve worked with pets with mild to moderate anxiety, but we cannot accept pets with severe separation anxiety or behaviors that require 24/7 supervision — those pets must be picked up immediately due to causing high-tension and stressful situations for both your pet, and our family.

That’s why we’ve set clear boundaries: to protect the peaceful, loving environment we’ve built and to prioritize clients who respect their pets and us — especially with a young child in our home. These policies aren’t meant to discourage who we service at our core - amazing loving pet parents. They simply help filter out mismatches so we can focus on what we do best: giving your pet a safe, happy, and loving stay.
