Highly-rated overnight sitters - Amsterdam
“Mike is a great sitter. I feel at ease knowing my dog is well cared for while I’m away. Mike is very responsive! We look forward to our next booking in the near future!”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Gillian and her family. We’ve used her a lot this year and will continue to trust her to take care of my pup. Cooper is 15 years old, he sleeps a lot but still has a pep in his step. Gillian makes sure he gets outside time and walks along with lots of snuggle time. He isn’t hesitant when we get to their house like he was with other sitters. And he’s acting more like himself there which tells me he is comfortable. I get multiple texts, pictures and videos when he’s there, so I know he’s doing well.”
“My dog Asher was treated like a family member, not a guest. I was absolutely thrilled as was Asher.. Cansu and Brett took him in like their own. Tons of photos and videos every day.”
“Liberty was a bit anxious about being left for so long and Megan took great care and tried to help her feel comfortable, took her for walks and even got her some special treats. The daily pictures and updates helped us to be more comfortable too!”
“Nat was wonderful, she accommodated a last-minute travel and extended the stay. Daily videos and photos gave me peace of mind that my fur baby was in safe and good hands. Will definitely be utilizing Nat in the near future. Thank you for taking such good care of my baby!”
“Thank you Brad & Mery for looking after Tupe while I was away on vacation this past week. I was extremely nervous to have a stranger watch him. You both quickly eased my mind when we stopped over for a “meet and greet”. Tupe felt right at home as soon as we walked into your home. To anyone looking for a sitter…Brad and Mery are best team! I will be contacting you soon!!! Thank you again.”
“Jen was wonderful! Sent me daily updates and I felt very comfortable with her watching my dogs. I will be using her for all my dog sitting needs! My girls have very big personalities, if you will (for being chihuahuas) so it takes a special person to be able to handle a 10 pound dog who thinks they’re big and loud. 10/10 recommend!!!”
“It provided us great comfort knowing our dog was in Jack's hands while we were away for a week. This was our first time leaving Charlotte with a dog sitter and we would not hesitate to use Jack's services again. He provided regular updates throughout our time away and has a great setup at home for the dogs, including a large fenced in yard. Charlotte came home happy and healthy. We highly recommend Jack.”
“Samantha and her partner Zachary took fabulous care of our two dogs for three days. They are both high energy young dogs, one 7 months and one 13 months old and we were worried that they were going to be a problem. They love each other, romping like crazy with each other indoors and out and Samantha and Zach had no problem dealing with them. When we went to pick them up, it was obvious that both dogs really liked their caregivers. What more can one hope for in someone taking care of their dogs? We will be using them again when we are back in the Albany area. Thank you, Samantha and Zachary! Clifford and Ann Wagner”
“David was incredibly responsive, kind and easy to work with! He took on my elderly 16 year old pup within a 24 hour notice after we found out our Airbnb didn’t allow dogs :( He took great care of her and sent daily updates which we really appreciated! She felt right at home with him and he made us feel very comforted knowing she was in good hands! Will definitely rejoin with him in the future :)”
“Kassandra and Johnathan were great with our Puppy Leo! He is a big ball of energy and they were great with him and he loved playing with their dog Charlie. I would recommend to anyone in the area and will definitely bring Leo back when we need boarding again!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Anna. She took care of our dog Rex. She sent us updates on our puppy and even photos! If you want a pet-sitter you can trust with anything, please book her. She went above and beyond caring for our puppy. Anna is a gem!””
“Tiffany was fantastic with my mini golden doodle! She was very responsive to messages and sent a lot of photos! I will definitely have Tiffany watch my dog again, she had the best time with the large fenced in yard!”
“Ginger was amazing with Otis. It was our first time leaving him but she assured us with daily updates, pictures and videos. He had a wonderful time playing with Ranger and really settled in nicely. Definitely recommend Ginger and will book with her again in the future.”
“Rebecca was great with the pups, took them on adventures, cleaned them up, and introduced them to new friends. She’s super accommodating to their needs and quirks and has been a pleasure to have watch over them!”
“Our dog Lilly had a wonderful time with Maegan! She was attentive, communicative, and made sure to keep us updated with photos of Lilly enjoying herself and playing with the other dogs. It gave us real peace of mind knowing Lilly was in such good hands. We’ll definitely be back!”
“We are so fortunate to have met Kyle. It is clear how much she loves dogs and goes to great lengths to be sure that they are comfortable. She sends lots of updates, pictures and videos, so the parents are put at ease as well. Our anxious pup was immediately at home, and came back happy and tired from all of the play. Thank you to our new friend Kyle for spoiling our fur baby!”
“Selfishly I would love to keep this my best secret , but John is the best sitter you could possibly hope for. I am actually blown away by the amount of attention and care my pup received here. We got constant updates and had no doubts at all about Winston being spoiled while we were spoiling ourselves. Couldn't ask for more.”
“I cannot say enough good things about Brigid and her care of our Keely. She loved and cared for her so well that we never had to worry at all while we were gone. She sent pictures and gave regular updates. Highly recommend! We will use Brigid again!”

Cat caregivers near you - Amsterdam
About: I have cared for cats going back to my childhood and have my own currently. I have experience ranging from young cats and their wild energy to senior cats and the specialized care many of them need. Whatever you need, I can provide it.
“Mike was absolutely wonderful. He was prompt, professional, kind and bonded with the kitties. He was very patient with all three of my kitties, from my older one to my very shy one. The photos he sent were great! Living in a rural community makes it difficult to welcome strangers into to your home. Mike's demeanor and presence instills an immediate level of trust and comfort that makes it easy to hand over the keys to my home, allowing me to attend other important matters. I would absolutely recommend him.”
“Cindy was wonderful with my kitty❤️ She is very caring and professional. I truly appreciate the pictures she sent me and feedback. I will definitely request her again to care for my girl❤️”

“Best sitter we've had from Rover so far. (We have talked to several sitters, we liked and were highly qualified). Scott was above and beyond. He had Gremlin be a lap kitty (which he isn't usually, unless he'sstressed) and gave him extra love. It was Gremlin's first time w/o his people since he lost his housemate Dany. Will definitely be our first go to from now on.”
“CAT LOVERS PAY ATTENTION!!! AMANDA IS WHO YOU ARE LOOKIN FOR!!! She took care of my 3 babies (my beloved cats) and my fish while we were away for 8 day! It was the first time I ever left them in someone else’s care that I didn’t worry the whole time I was gone!!! She is truly a cat whisperer…. My cats were naturally attracted to her which was a huge surprise because 2 of them will not go near anybody except us….and within seconds of her arriving for our meet and greet they came right up to her. I loved receiving the daily pictures. She even scooped out the cat litter boxes every day, which I was not expecting. I will not hesitate to call her again. And I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a good Pet Sitter.”
“Great job Sabrina! Thanks so much for taking such good care of my girl. It allowed me to relax and enjoy my weekend away to visit my son, daughter -in-law and little grandson. I will definitely book you again in the near future.”
“Jack did a great job coming over to take care of our cats while we were out for a week. One of them is diabetic and Jack used the insulin we provided and he's doing great now that we're back home. He came consistently and reliably every day which was necessary for the insulin and all the cats were fed as instructed. Would highly recommend!”
About: My fiancée and I currently have 4 cats with varying personalities. I have experience from energetic cats that require play time to cats that don’t want me to know they exist to cats that want to be in your skin. We use automatic feeders but my schedule allows for me to feed a cat multiple times a day.
“This was the third time Cassandra took care of our pet bunny and she is wonderful! We loved getting the pictures and daily updates and when we returned home everything was neat and tidy. Your pet will be in good hands with Cassandra!”

From playful puppies to senior companions, I’ve experienced every stage of a dog’s life and know how to meet their unique needs. I’ve also provided dog-sitting services for friends and family, ensuring their pets are well-cared for and happy while they’re away. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or cuddles, I’m dedicated to giving every dog the same love and care I give my own.

If they have specific needs, like administering medication or following special instructions, I’m happy to accommodate. My goal is to ensure your pet feels cared for and happy while you’re away.
“Joanne was amazing! We have cats that needed to be checked up on while were were on a long vacation. We had never used Rover before but noticed that they have services for cats too. We found Joanne and are so glad we did! She went above and beyond our needs. Our cats got lots of attention each time she came. She made sure their food and litter was topped off and kept the areas so clean. She was great about including lots of info and pictures in the report cards. She even watered our plants! Her sweet kids also came and played with the cats. They were very respectful of the house. It gave us such piece of mind knowing that our animals were looked after so attentively. There is no doubt that we will be hiring her for vacations to come!”
“Brenna did an excellent job taking care of our kitties. She is very trustworthy. She took multiple pictures of our girls which made us feel at ease that they were doing good & in good hands while we traveled.”
About: I have loved and cared for all kinds of pets throughout my life. I’m nurturing, caring and responsible when it comes to caring for your pet aka member of the family!

I also have a dog myself. He’s a 3 year old Australian Shepherd/Poodle mix. He has the biggest heart. He’s extremely friendly, playful and full of energy.

“Brittany did an awesome job of taking care of my pets and keeping me informed of how they were doing! It was very reassuring to know that Brittany has experience administering meds and that my kitty with kidney disease was getting all the care she needed!”
About: I have experience with every kind of dog, from very large to very small. I've brought my own dogs to training and presently enjoy learning about dogs and their behavior. One of my favorite things to do is hike with my dogs. I'm a teacher, so, I am free all summer- morning (I'm an early bird) through evening and every day of the week and some weekends. I like to stay active, so adding walks to my day makes me happy. I take my three large breed dogs on walks or hikes every day. I'm comfortable walking more than one dog at a time and taking them for car rides to reach a destination.
“Michael responded quickly to a short notice request to do 2 drop-in visit per day for 3 dogs for 3 1/2 days (a funeral requiring cross-country travel). He was very professional, & kept me posted with photos and videos. The dogs are terriers (2 seniors & a 7-month pup), not the easiest breeds to handle, especially without a fenced yard. Michael spent time playing with them, as well as walks, food & cleanup. They were happy, well fed and the house looked just like I left it! Thank you Michael!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Amsterdam
About: I have 15 years experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes, as well as small animals and exotics. I foster dogs for a breed specific rescue, with medical and severe behavioral issues so I’ve seen it all. (Dog and human aggression ect…) If dogs are boarding in my home they must be crate trained and/or fully dog and cat friendly. We can always work something out, message me! I do not board cats but would be happy to stop by and spend some time with them. I’m home full time right now! I may go out for a couple hours for dog walking, but other than that someone is always here. We have a spare room if they need their own space. We have lots of experience fostering and crate/ rotate. We always make sure to spend equal quality time with each dog. If I am caring for your pets at your home I will spend the night there with them.
“Buddie spent the day with Megan, her family and pups and had a full day of playing and attention. He slept all the way home in the car and is out cold. A tired dog is a happy dog. Megan was very flexible and understanding when I was later than I originally planned.”
“Exceptional people! They are extremely responsive and were very welcoming. We set up a meet and greet to make sure Sheba would get along with Bear which made me feel comfortable that I was leaving Sheba in good, capable hands. I get several updates throughout the day which is awesome and they are very flexible with times. 10/10 would recommend to a friend or anyone that needs doggy daycare. Thanks for being awesome guys!”
About: I've taken care of dogs since little, my babysitter at the time had two dogs, I helped by feeding them and cuddling with them. I also have a cat that lives at my parent's home. He's been with us for about 5-6 years. I took great care of him! Pet care is something I build into my everyday routine. I love spending time with animals, so walks, feeding, playtime, and giving them attention throughout the day comes naturally to me. I'll make sure pets are comfortable with me and/ the environment, I'll make sure your pets get the attention they need. I'll keep in contact if anything ever comes up.

“Gillian and Mitch and their four pups are absolutely amazing. They were so welcoming of Biscuit, who fit right in with the pack and had a blast. Came home completely tired and ready for dinner and sleep! Gillian kept me posted if his activities throughout the day. We will definitely go back to her.”
“Jack has been great with my dog. she goes twice a week for daycare and she is always excited to get there and never wants to leave. Jack has been very flexible and professional!”
“Anna did a great job watching my dog for the day! She was always quick to respond and sent lots of photo/video updates throughout the day. Would definitely bring Bennet back for another day care day with her!”
“Sierra took great care of my elderly dog. He was so content when I picked him up that he didn’t want to go home. She kept him separated from the other dogs, but in the same room, so he could see and interact with his new friends without any risk to him physically. My little potato really enjoyed his time there and I’ll be bringing him back!”
“Kathy was awesome! Took great care of Bonnie, and sent lots of pictures and updates to keep us posted and reassured that everything was going well. She was positive and friendly with communication and flexible as out time tables adjusted a bit.”
“Nat was great with our two pups. Our one dog is still a puppy in many ways and this was her first Rover experience. Nat didn’t make us feel bad for the behaviors that I know are difficult to manage or come with a pups first time stay. She kept us updated With pics and videos which we loved. If you want a safe and loving place for your pups, Nat is the way to go!”
“Brad and Mery were wonderful, and took great care of our dog Maisie. I loved getting pictures and updates daily- it made me feel much better being away! I highly recommend, and hope to use them again in the future!”
“Tiffany is a wonderful host, and Sunny had a terrific place to stay. A big comfy couch for the pups, a doggy door leading to a big fenced yard, and three very friendly pups of her own. Looking forward to a return trip later when we’ll be gone for a week. And looking forward to checking out the delicious looking cakes, cupcakes, & cake pops she custom makes!”
About: Raised a well trained border collie in high school and recently fostered a puppy that became a service dog through Dogs For Better Lives. We trained it for 14 months to prepare for service training. Typically the professional training takes 4-6 months but our boy graduated in 2.5. I love short, fun training sessions and consistency. I was a solo traveler living the vanlife but am back home helping my folks in Maryland. I love dogs but owning one would radically change my lifestyle. I’m hoping that through Rover I can still have some dog time on the road and take some good boys and girls for adventures outdoors. Primarily I like to do drop-in visit for walks and short training sessions. Once we build a rapport, I’d like to do hikes and overnight adventures.
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. Been boarding and running daycare full time for 10+ years. I have studied dog behaviors, CPR trained, used to train and have spent my life learning dogs. Part of my business is even making pet products like bow ties, bandanas, toys, healthy treats, signs and organic paw wax. I run my boarding and daycare full time. It is what i live every day. I board 7 days a week and run daycare Tues-Fri We have a large dog specific room which daycare is run out of (while boarding your dog can join daycare for no extra cost) this room has a dog door that leads to the large fenced in yard. Once daycare is complete or dog dependent, the door comes open and the pups join our pack (2) snuggling on the couch and begging in the kitchen 😉
About: First time clients can use the promo code below for a discount on your first booking. DAWNA60239 My profile: https://www.rover.com/sit/dawna60239 I have taken care of dogs since I was in my early teens. In addition, through the years, I have also been a pet parent to a horse, guinea pigs, hermit crabs, tropical fish, goldfish, and hamsters. Family and friends routinely ask me for pet care advice since I have had pets for so many years and trained my own puppies through self teaching. I also have experience administering medications. I care for my own four dogs on a daily basis ranging in age from 3 to 17 and have raised them from puppies. We have play time and snuggle time at different times each day. There is plenty of extra time and love each day to care for your fur baby too. I have a fenced yard on just under 1/2 acre, and my four dogs love to romp and play which is part of their daily routine. They also love long walks or going for a car ride. They are all crate trained and feel that their crate is their special place, so the doors are always open for them to have their alone/rest time when they want to after play time (if they are not trying to claim a spot on the couch or in the recliner). One especially likes the couch and the others love to sleep in bed at night.
“David was able to book us within a few days notice and was very friendly and took great care of our dog. he communicated frequently and was able to work with Benders first time being at day care which I really appreciated. Would absolutely book again!”
“First time with Tatiana and couldn’t be happier. Will definitely be a repeat customer as she provides a great experience for our Stella❤️ Very accommodating as we had last minute change in drop off times. Highly recommended!”
“Marianne was absolutely amazing! She took such good care of Nova sending pictures and videos throughout the day. She treats the pups just like her own giving them 1 on 1 attention, love, and care! I highly recommend Marianne and she has the BEST assistant, aka her lovely daughter.”

About: Positive reinforcement and teaching go a long way. Where pet love comes alive and the fun doesn’t never ends. Teaching essentials to a successful bond with your pet from the heart. I am currently a full time student with ample free time to care for your fur babies. As someone who work long hours myself I find it crucial that pets stick to a routine (feeding, training , walks etc). I have a beautiful friendly fur baby at home to keep your pets company. Extra crates, bowls etc if needed. I have a small yard without a fence. I take my dog for walks twice day. As well sometimes caring for my friends or neighbors pets.
About: I have been passionate about caring for animals since childhood, with a lifelong commitment to helping pets and stray animals thrive in safe, loving environments. My goal is to ensure the health, happiness, and safety of every animal I encounter, treating them with the same love and care as if they were my own. With years of personal experience, including caring for a senior dog who lived a full 15 years and now rests peacefully, as well as raising my adventurous 4-year-old cat and my energetic 2-year-old dog, I bring dedication and compassion to animal care. Whether providing hands-on assistance or finding homes for animals in need, I am always ready to go above and beyond to keep them out of harm’s way and surrounded by love. Animal care has always been a big part of my life. I grew up around animals, which eventually led me to work in a veterinary clinic where I gained hands-on experience with pet health, behavior, and daily care. I’m no longer employed at the clinic, but the knowledge and skills I gained there still guide the way I care for every pet I work with. My schedule is now fully open, which means I can give your pet the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. Whether your companion needs walks, playtime, medication support, or simply a reliable and comforting presence, I’m committed to providing exceptional care. I treat every animal like my own and make sure you feel confident while you’re away by offering dependable communication and genuine love for your pet. If your pet has specific routines, quirks, or needs, I’m happy to accommodate. I’m excited to meet you and your furry family member! 🐾 I have a medium sized outdoor fenced in area that also is connected to an indoor area to get out of the heat. I also have a dog tie out that goes from the house down our hill.
About: All Animals are my true passion. I am finally pursuing a job that truly makes me happy. I want to do what I love and call it work. I currently work 6am-4pm Tuesday -Friday. I am available after 4pm those days, and anytime Sat,Sun,Mon. I am looking to gain the trust of enough clientele to have pet care be my primary occupation. I have a well kept home with no children. I will pamper any pets like I do my own. I have 2 adopted cats. 2 yr old brother and sister. I have huge 2 acre property, in which your dog can explore. When visiting a clients home I will treat it with the utmost respect. I worked over 18 years in 5 star hotel and residential properties in Manhattan, frequently entrusted in taking care of high profile residents pets.
About: Former volunteer through the APF - along with being a cat & dog mom myself! I also have personal experience with smaller animals - such as rabbits, hamsters and even rats! Being a full time stay at home mom, I have a lot of open time on my hands! You would have my full dedication and focus on your fur baby 🤍 Available any day, any time, full availability ☺️ I treat every pet like my own and make sure they always feel safe and comfortable. In my home, I keep things clean, calm, and pet-friendly, with cozy spots for rest and plenty of space to play. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick to their normal routine so they feel right at home. I make sure food, water, and walks happen on schedule, and I always double check doors, gates, and anything that keeps them safe. I also love sending photo updates so you can see how happy your pet is while you’re away!
About: Hello! I have been pet/house sittings for friends and coworkers for several years. I am responsible, reliable, and give your pets all of my love!

When spending time with your pet in your home I treat your home with respect, care, and concern. I leave spaces cleaner than how I found it and am a true professional.

“Mike is a great sitter. I feel at ease knowing my dog is well cared for while I’m away. Mike is very responsive! We look forward to our next booking in the near future!”
“My dog Asher was treated like a family member, not a guest. I was absolutely thrilled as was Asher.. Cansu and Brett took him in like their own. Tons of photos and videos every day.”
“Liberty was a bit anxious about being left for so long and Megan took great care and tried to help her feel comfortable, took her for walks and even got her some special treats. The daily pictures and updates helped us to be more comfortable too!”
“Thank you Brad & Mery for looking after Tupe while I was away on vacation this past week. I was extremely nervous to have a stranger watch him. You both quickly eased my mind when we stopped over for a “meet and greet”. Tupe felt right at home as soon as we walked into your home. To anyone looking for a sitter…Brad and Mery are best team! I will be contacting you soon!!! Thank you again.”
“Jen was wonderful! Sent me daily updates and I felt very comfortable with her watching my dogs. I will be using her for all my dog sitting needs! My girls have very big personalities, if you will (for being chihuahuas) so it takes a special person to be able to handle a 10 pound dog who thinks they’re big and loud. 10/10 recommend!!!”
“It provided us great comfort knowing our dog was in Jack's hands while we were away for a week. This was our first time leaving Charlotte with a dog sitter and we would not hesitate to use Jack's services again. He provided regular updates throughout our time away and has a great setup at home for the dogs, including a large fenced in yard. Charlotte came home happy and healthy. We highly recommend Jack.”
“Samantha and her partner Zachary took fabulous care of our two dogs for three days. They are both high energy young dogs, one 7 months and one 13 months old and we were worried that they were going to be a problem. They love each other, romping like crazy with each other indoors and out and Samantha and Zach had no problem dealing with them. When we went to pick them up, it was obvious that both dogs really liked their caregivers. What more can one hope for in someone taking care of their dogs? We will be using them again when we are back in the Albany area. Thank you, Samantha and Zachary! Clifford and Ann Wagner”
“Kassandra and Johnathan were great with our Puppy Leo! He is a big ball of energy and they were great with him and he loved playing with their dog Charlie. I would recommend to anyone in the area and will definitely bring Leo back when we need boarding again!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Anna. She took care of our dog Rex. She sent us updates on our puppy and even photos! If you want a pet-sitter you can trust with anything, please book her. She went above and beyond caring for our puppy. Anna is a gem!””
“Ginger was amazing with Otis. It was our first time leaving him but she assured us with daily updates, pictures and videos. He had a wonderful time playing with Ranger and really settled in nicely. Definitely recommend Ginger and will book with her again in the future.”
“Our dog Lilly had a wonderful time with Maegan! She was attentive, communicative, and made sure to keep us updated with photos of Lilly enjoying herself and playing with the other dogs. It gave us real peace of mind knowing Lilly was in such good hands. We’ll definitely be back!”
“We are so fortunate to have met Kyle. It is clear how much she loves dogs and goes to great lengths to be sure that they are comfortable. She sends lots of updates, pictures and videos, so the parents are put at ease as well. Our anxious pup was immediately at home, and came back happy and tired from all of the play. Thank you to our new friend Kyle for spoiling our fur baby!”
“Selfishly I would love to keep this my best secret , but John is the best sitter you could possibly hope for. I am actually blown away by the amount of attention and care my pup received here. We got constant updates and had no doubts at all about Winston being spoiled while we were spoiling ourselves. Couldn't ask for more.”
“I went away for the first time in almost a year with not a worry in the world. I was nervous about leaving my dog for the first time, but she did great and had a great time. I highly recommend Peg and her family. Thank you so much for taking such good care of my Sadie.”
“We are so glad we found Marina! We decided to try Rover last minute to board our dogs before a trip and her profile immediately stuck out. She was professional, gave our dogs great care and kept us updated throughout. We were able to really enjoy our time away without having to worry about how our dogs were doing. We would use her again and again to watch them! She also gracefully dealt with our very active puppy who presents her own set of challenges! She was very knowledgeable and easy to work with. We really can’t say enough good things! Thanks again Marina!”
“Even though this was short notice, Jillian was excellent with Ezra! She sent videos, photos, and updates about what was going on during the night and day. I felt at peace knowing my boy was in great hands. If you're looking for a responsible, loving, caring sitter, look no further.”
“Lori is kind, responsive, and reliable. I appreciated her reassuring texts letting me know my pup had settled in and was doing fine. I would recommend Lori to anyone.”
“I always get the best pictures of my dog when he is staying at Camilla’s. This past time there were great pictures with other friendly dogs and good pictures of my dog snuggling with dogs and loving people. All the dogs are so well cared for.”
