“Larry took excellent care of our dog while we were away for the weekend. He was extremely professional and made sure to ask questions to ensure our dog was as comfortable as possible. We received updates during our time away on how our little guy was doing. We were extremely satisfied with our experience and will definitely keep Larry in mind for our next trip!”
“Kyle was great with our pup! I am sure that Buddy enjoyed his stay and having such a a nice yard to play in. Kyle was quick to follow up on any questions and kept us updated during our trip.”
“Sheronda was a great sitter for my elderly poodle! She provided updates and photos and was very conscientious about a couple of special instructions I left. Sheronda is highly reliable and very personable. I highly recommend her!”
“I once again couldn't be happier that I found Mark & Sylva to watch my boys Buddy & Connor. This is the 2nd time they've watched my boys and once again I'm deeply appreciative of the attention and care they give my babies. The pictures and daily updates eased my worries about being gone. I would recommend them to watch your fur babies over and over again.”
“Richelle was amazing with my puppy Kairo while I was away on my trip! She kept me updated every single day with pictures and videos, which made me feel so comfortable and reassured the whole time. Kairo had such a great time with her, and that means everything to me because I do not just leave him with anyone. She was caring, trustworthy, and made the whole experience stress-free. I would absolutely recommend Richelle to anyone looking for a great pet sitter, and Kairo will definitely be welcomed back into her hands again!”
“Christopher and his wife took great care of my Penny. She had trouble going up the stairs (she is 12 years old, which is a lot for a bulldog!), so Christopher actually carried her up after every walk (and she’s not light!). They sent pictures and updates every day, and just overall a very lovely and caring couple!”
“Jannice was wonderful! From the moment we met, I could tell she loves animals. Our dog Lili took to her right away. I highly recommend her! You can’t trust just anyone with your furry baby, but I know I can trust Jannice. - Caroline”
“Brigid did a great job taking care of our senior dog for the first time. She was very communicative and sent us photos of various happenings during the days that Jessie was at her house. We appreciated knowing that all was well while we were away. Brigid was very conscientious in following through with all instructions for our dog’s care. We have already booked her for another time.”
“We had a fantastic experience leaving our dog with Justin. He was very attentive, communicative and made sure we felt confident and comfortable the whole time we were away. The pickup and drop off is definitely added bonus.”
“My dog had such a great time at awoo’s. He was very responsive. Every time I messaged along with pictures. My dog isn’t around a lot of people, but trusted him. She’s also been asleep since I got her back very exhausted because of her being able to be so active there I would definitely book him again and again and again.”
“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 :)”
“Our dog had a fun time with Kayci. She was very flexible about drop-off and pick-up. Our dog doesn't like to be alone, and we felt comfortable because someone in her household was home almost all the time. We received photos and messages, and it was clear that Kayci liked our dog a lot. I'd be very comfortable using Kayci again.”
“Samantha and her family are amazing. Honestly. My first time boarding my 3 month old puppy and they made it so easy. Communication and kindness!! Such genuine people. Thank you for everything!!”

She was easily able to handle providing medication and special nutritional needs for our two older girls, as well as, keeping our younger guy busy with plenty of playtime. Steph sent plenty of pictures each day along with a detailed recap of each visit. When we were delayed 2 days getting home from our trip she was happy to extend our agreement to help us out of the jam. I would recommend to anyone needing care for their animals… as long as we don’t need her first!”

We stick to familiar neighborhood routes, and I’m constantly aware of traffic, other dogs, and any signs of stress or discomfort. Trust is built through communication 🤝 You’ll get photo and text updates during every visit so you can see exactly what your pup is up to. I respond quickly to messages and always follow your specific instructions about routes, bathroom breaks, and your dog’s individual needs. Before our first meeting, I’ll do a quick meet and greet to make sure we’re a good fit and to learn about your dog’s personality, quirks, and preferences. That way, nothing surprises either of us!
About: 🐾🏡 About Me Hi! I’m a lifelong dog owner, trainer, and former kennel manager with experience caring for all breeds, ages, and personalities. My home is active and structured, with plenty of playtime, exercise, and enrichment. I currently share my home with Border Collies, Labradors, and a few mixed breeds, and we’re active in dog sports like frisbee, obedience, and dock diving. Whether your dog is social or needs their own space, I can accommodate them — as long as they are people-friendly. I strive to make dogs feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you have peace of mind. 🐶 What Your Dog Can Expect Safe, structured, and enriching days: Morning play/walks, breakfast, digest & rest breaks, afternoon activities, and evening wind-down. Large fenced backyard + indoor play area for all weather. Crate-based routine for meals, rest, and overnight for safety and comfort. Daily updates: Photos, videos, and notes so you stay connected. Personalized attention based on your dog’s personality, energy, and needs. 📍 Convenient Location Just 3 miles from Albany Airport Near I-87, I-90, and I-88 — perfect for travelers ✅ What I Provide Expansive fenced yard & indoor play space Wide collection of dog equipment (bring only collar, leash, and food) Experience with puppies, seniors, reactive dogs, and multiple breeds Knowledge of breed-specific needs, safety, and bloat prevention 📌 What I Need From You Vaccinations required: Rabies, Distemper, Bordetella Crate-trained dogs only What to bring: Collar, leash, and food (please no beds) Daycare: All daycare dogs require to ha e a m&g and a trial day before being able to book freely. Drop-Ins/House Sitting: Meet & Greet required. Keyless entries only, will not keep keys. 🗓 Drop-Off & Pick-Up Morning: 6:00–7:30 AM Evening: 6:00–7:30 PM No Saturday evenings or holiday exchanges Please specify a time to avoid overlap — residential area, so we keep things calm for neighbors and dogs 💬 Meet & Greets Recommended for all new clients Please schedule at least 2 weeks prior to your stay 📅 Routine & Peak Season Peak Season: May 1 – September 30 Structured routine: multiple outdoor sessions, playtime, meals with digestion breaks, rest periods — no free-for-all boarding ✨ Why Choose Me? I live and breathe dogs — training, sports, and overall enjoyment are my passion. Your pup will get safe, structured care, plenty of exercise, and personal attention while you get peace of mind and daily updates. We keep a very rigid structured routine. Our day starts between 6-7am, with initial let outs--group play if appropriate to get that morning energy out. Then we settle in for breakfast time, all dogs rest 30 minutes prior to meals, 30 minutes to eat, then followed by another 30-60 minutes to digest. This helps prevent bloat( while any size dog CAN bloat--most often occurs in larger/deep chested breeds, but I take no chances). We then are in and out throughout the rest of the day when dinner time commences between 5-6pm, repeating the same 30-30-30/60 routine. Last let outs and romps wrapping up around 10-11pm. I don't operate a free for all. Fully fenced in yard. Specifically zoned areas for potting and play. Daily house keeping services including vacuuming and daily crate wipe down and disinfection. Dogs are outside as much as we can be, under direct supervision weather permitting.

About: 🐾 I’m absolutely obsessed with cats—and honestly, that’s the biggest reason I’m here. Rover isn’t just a side thing for me… I genuinely love spending time with cats and getting to know all their unique personalities. At home, I care for three cats of my own, so I understand everything from playtime energy to quiet, independent moods. I’m also known locally as a stray cat feeder and caretaker, and I always keep cat food in my car—because you truly never know when a hungry kitty might need help. Caring for animals isn’t something I “turn on”—it’s just part of who I am every day. While cats are my specialty, I’ve recently been spending more time around dogs as well and have become increasingly comfortable and confident with them. I’m patient, attentive, and quick to adapt to different temperaments, whether your pet is energetic, shy, or somewhere in between. When you trust me with your pet, you’re getting someone who is: ✔️ Reliable & responsive ✔️ Gentle, patient, and detail-oriented ✔️ Experienced with multiple-cat households ✔️ Truly passionate about animal care I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own—with love, respect, and close attention to their needs. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, medication, or just keeping them company, I’ve got it covered. I’m also very flexible and able to travel, so feel free to reach out with whatever you need—I’m happy to make it work!! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine. I recently bought a house here in Albany, so it’s just me and my studies now — which means I have plenty of time and flexibility to devote to caring for your cats. As a law student, my classes are only on Mondays and Wednesdays, so the rest of the week I’m fully available to spend quality time making sure your cat (or cats!) get the love, attention, and care they need. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping your cat’s routine consistent and stress-free. That means fresh food and water on schedule, a clean litter box, and plenty of playtime and affection — whether that’s cuddles, brushing, or just quiet company if your cat prefers space. I always make sure to respect your home, follow your instructions closely, and send regular updates so you know your pet is happy and safe. If I’m welcoming a cat into my own home, I create a calm, cozy environment with safe spaces for them to explore or retreat to, depending on their personality. I treat every cat as if they were my own — with patience, attentiveness, and lots of love.
“Great first experience leaving my dog in their house for a day for daycare. Christopher and Chelsea both are very kind, sweet, patient and knowledgeable about caring for dogs. When I picked up, I can tell my baby is so happy, satisfied and well rested. Will definitely come back again!”

About: Since falling head over heals for my Yorkie, nurturing for him has been one of the greatest experiences I learned. I potty trained him, bathe, and also searched up a recipe for a nutritional diet haha! We are always outside unless the ground is too hot then we wait later on the day to exercise for at least an hour, preferably a jog. I know of the greatest dog parks in this area and would love to introduce him to new friends <3 I am flexible with dog walks and part time doggy care. I am very organized with time and will know what to do and when to do so! The space I have inside my house is pretty decent but I like to spend time outside anyways. I have a fenced yard and will watch as they play. If its okay for field trips, I usually take long walks on trails to explore and visit the doggy park for some time. Open to all preferences.
About: My name is Loren and I grew up taking care of dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. I have been working through Rover for 8 years since moving to the Capital region.

My cats are spoiled rotten and I will spoil your pets too if that is what you want.
About: I have had dogs and cats in my life since as long as I can remember. I have gone through 5 dogs growing up and have always been surrounded by the pets of friends and family! I’ve always loved every kind of animal, I believe the bond between a dog or cat and their human is truly unconditional. I’m eager to meet and care for more furry friends! I am a full-time hairstylist. Though I am scheduled for the same hours each week, sometimes I have slower weeks than others and my weeks are never always the same. I am looking for Rover as a side job to help me out during my slower days! I live in an Inlaw apartment under my mom‘s house. We have a fenced in backyard. I only have one cat in my apartment, and my mom has two dogs that are very friendly. We have a walking trail along a river across the street from our house!

“Richelle was amazing with my puppy Kairo while I was away on my trip! She kept me updated every single day with pictures and videos, which made me feel so comfortable and reassured the whole time. Kairo had such a great time with her, and that means everything to me because I do not just leave him with anyone. She was caring, trustworthy, and made the whole experience stress-free. I would absolutely recommend Richelle to anyone looking for a great pet sitter, and Kairo will definitely be welcomed back into her hands again!”
“Christopher and his wife took great care of my Penny. She had trouble going up the stairs (she is 12 years old, which is a lot for a bulldog!), so Christopher actually carried her up after every walk (and she’s not light!). They sent pictures and updates every day, and just overall a very lovely and caring couple!”
“My dog had such a great time at awoo’s. He was very responsive. Every time I messaged along with pictures. My dog isn’t around a lot of people, but trusted him. She’s also been asleep since I got her back very exhausted because of her being able to be so active there I would definitely book him again and again and again.”
“Our dog had a fun time with Kayci. She was very flexible about drop-off and pick-up. Our dog doesn't like to be alone, and we felt comfortable because someone in her household was home almost all the time. We received photos and messages, and it was clear that Kayci liked our dog a lot. I'd be very comfortable using Kayci again.”
“Samantha and her family are amazing. Honestly. My first time boarding my 3 month old puppy and they made it so easy. Communication and kindness!! Such genuine people. Thank you for everything!!”
“Excellent! This was my first experience with Lori and Rover.com and it will not be my last. Lori was so accommodating to my requests. I am very pleased and happy with my pups stay at her home.”
“Cache was patient and responsible and we’d happily hire her again. Our dog can be challenging but seemed to love her and as happy when we picked her up. Cache’s calm demeanor was just what our dog needs. 😍”
“Maggie's experience and knowledge is very impressive. She did a great job caring for my skittish and nervous pup, Angelo. I was updated throughout his stay. We will absolutely be using Maggie for all of our future boarding!”
“Our bernedooble bogey has a lot of separation anxiety is rarely away from us. Katie was so kind and welcoming from the moment we dropped him off. She sent a picture and an update. And he seemed so happy and calm when we picked him up. I will definitely be boarding with Katie again!”
“Jayla was patient with Luna (she's kind of a chicken) eventually Luna warmed up to her and seemed to have a blast. Jayla did a good job of keeping us updated and responding to my check in texts. Luna really liked her, I would use Jayla again to watch my fur monster”
“Kristine gave our dog Chauncey exceptional care! She gave us updates with photos , which is very important to us. She was communicative and overall just lovely to interact with. She even mended a bandana he was wearing. On top of it, she sent him home with a Halloween bandana she sewed! We will definitely request her care again.”
“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!”
“Phelan took great care of Sadie and made her feel right at home! She's a great communicator and she sent us lots of updates and pictures of Sadie. We look forward to bringing Sadie over again!”
