About: I’ve spent years caring for animals of all ages — from energetic young puppies to senior dogs needing medication and a softer touch. My background working with animals (including horses and dogs) has given me strong skills in reading body language, managing different energy levels, and keeping pets calm, safe, and happy. I know how to balance play with structure for young pups, and I have the patience and attentiveness to support older dogs who may need slower walks, potty breaks, or extra cuddles. I’m available weekdays during school hours, which means you can count on me for consistent mid-morning, lunchtime, and early afternoon walks or visits. • Weekdays: 9 AM – 2 PM (perfect for mid-day breaks) • Evenings/Weekends: Available on request This routine lets me focus fully on your pets when most owners are away at work. Safety is always my top priority — especially for young puppies and older dogs. Walks are always on-leash, and I keep routes safe and calm, avoiding busy roads and overstimulating environments. For drop-ins, I follow your routine exactly — meals, water refresh, potty breaks, playtime, and medications if needed. I double-check everything before leaving, and I send updates with photos so you always know how your pup is doing.

About: Animals are too good for humankind, so they should be treated like absolute royalty. I grew up with cats and had a small but successful dog-walking and pet-sitting business in my neighborhood growing up. I am more than happy to treat your pet as if they were my own <3 I am currently unemployed and searching for a new job, but in the meantime, outside of my rugby schedule, I am available to take care of your pets! To make sure your pet feels as comfortable as possible while you are away, I would love to learn their typical routine at home and their interests!
“Meghan was great! The last time we hired a walker, one of our pups didn’t walk. He wouldn’t leave the house and we had to call in a favor from family. We asked Meghan to meet the dogs and cat before her first walk, and we found her to be calm, polite, and very pleasant around the dogs. They warmed up to her immediately. While we were gone, she walked the dogs twice a day, including the one who was socially anxious. Our house looked great when we got home and the animals were in very good spirits. We will definitely use Meghan again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - South Glens Falls
We had a wonderful experience with Sue over the past two days caring for our dogs. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly attentive to their needs. It gave us great peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands while we were away. Our dogs were happy, well cared for, and received plenty of attention and exercise. We truly appreciated her professionalism and kindness, and we would not hesitate to book her again in the future. Highly recommend!
We were pleased with Amber's first two visits (Drop-Ins) with our dog, Sasha. She was attentive to Sasha and to our suggestions for these initial visits as Sasha takes some time to warm up around new people. Sasha was a little stressed after the first visit, but we anticipated that and it is normal for Sasha. They seemed to do quite well by the end of the second visit and Sasha seemed quite happy upon our return home. She was communicative through the Rover system including some notes and a several photos for each visit. She also came for a meet and greet and communicated will in advance of her first official Drop-In visit, which we appreciated. We are interested in hiring Amber again and seeing how the relationship with Sasha develops!

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in South Glens Falls choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
