“Jialin and John watched my new senior rescue Bianca for a long weekend and were so good to her! I was a little nervous since I had her less than a month and was still figuring out her unique behaviors and preferences but she was in great hands. We did a meet and greet beforehand and Boo-boo was a great host, sharing his home and parents. Jialin even taught Bianca a new trick that we have been working on back home. Bianca was sent home with a plastic baggie of some treats she liked to keep the good times going back home. I look forward to the next time Bianca can stay with them!”
“Jennifer took the time to really understand Caleb's geriatric needs, introduce him to her home, and help him feel really comfortable there. She sent photos and updates frequently throughout the week. She is genuinely kind and caring, and was wonderful with our aging Golden Retriever. We will definitely ask for her help if we need care for Caleb in the future.”
“Laura is amazing. She owns several small dogs, and has a lot of experience with senior & special needs dogs. She immediately put us at ease during the meet & greet, which she offered to do prior to Molly's stay to make sure we were comfortable w/ her & her home (and to see how Molly would do with her dogs). During Molly's stay, she sent us frequent pics, videos & updates, which was fantastic. She's competent, friendly, & reliable. We will definitely be bringing Molly back the next time we need boarding.”
“Very responsive. Provided updates and pictures. Theo enjoyed his time and received a ton of attention from Chris and Jia. When we're out of town again we will be reaching out.”
“Kaitlyn was amazing! She helped us out when we were in a pinch and needed dog sitting for a weekend with only one days notice! We had never had Lucy boarded anywhere before and we were a bit nervous about the process, but it went so smoothly! She sent pictures to reassure my kiddos she was being well taken care of! I would definitely recommend her services and will be using her again for dog sitting in the future!”
“Debbie was patient, kind, and flexible in every aspect. I would highly recommend her and I plan on requesting her boarding services the next time I need them. Thank you so much Deb!”
“I couldn't recommend Brigid enough. She was able to Cooper on EXTREMELY short notice, and he had such a great weekend. I had total peace of mind while I was away, and I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“10/10 recommend Vera! She went above and beyond making sure us and our pup were well cared for. She sent us regular updates, videos, and pictures. She gave Pierce a lavender calming collar to put him at ease on the first night. She even noticed that the mat underneath our dog bowls was frayed and coming undone and sewed it up for us. I was blown away by her kindness and palpable love of animals. Don’t hesitate to book Vera. You won’t regret it.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the comfort and care Saskia provided to our Golden Retriever. Just on Day 2, the picture I got was our little boy flat on his back, paws up, sound asleep! He was so comfortable and happy, he did his usually chill yoga pose lol. I’m going to try and attach the picture I got. I would 100% request Saskia for pet care and will absolutely recommend her to all my friends and family. 10 stars if I could!”
“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!”
“Darcy was wonderful and we felt very comfortable leaving our pup with her family. Our dog was well cared for and came home happy. We will highly recommend Darcy to friends and family who also need dog sitting services. Thank you Darcy!”
“Brooke and her family were kind and loving to Millie! She hasn’t been with anyone but us and she isn’t a very easygoing pup so we were so relieved when Millie was so relaxed and happy in Brooke’s home. Brooke kept us updated and sent many adorable photos! I would absolutely book with Brooke again and will recommend her to anyone needing care for their fur children.”
“We couldn’t have been happier with our first experience leaving our dog with Kyle. Her love of dogs is obvious. She took such good care of him and kept in regular contact with us with pictures and videos. He came home happy and unstressed. Actually, I’m not sure he wanted to come home 😆. We definitely recommend her!”
“Samantha was wonderful to work with - sent lots of great updates on our pup throughout the visit and we felt totally at ease knowing Milo was in good hands. Definitely recommend Samantha!”
“Mary and Todd are the absolute best dog sitters! Their great care for our dog Toby gives us a lot of peace of mind. We know he is having a great time — it shows in the photos that Mary sends to us throughout his stay.”

“Karen was amazing at caring for our two cats while we were away for a week! Both were looked after lovingly and I appreciate how much Karen communicated with us and how reliable she was! Karen managed to bond with our more shy cat and get her to take her medicine. It was wonderful knowing Polly and Vinny were in good hands!”
“Ashlyn was fantastic with our two new cats. She did an excellent job bonding with them and was very communicative during our whole vacation. Highly recommended!!”
“Chelsea took excellent care of my kitties! I was very happy with her in all aspects. She sent me a report card daily with photos, my skittish darlings came to her each day which they rarely do with anyone but me, she was extemely pleasant and courteous, etc. I could go on and on with rave reviews about her! I currently have no travel plans in the forseeable future, but I will certainly contact Chelsea for sure. Thank you!”
“I can't thank Tara enough- she came over, fed my older kitty, gave her love, and took lots of photos. She even brought my mail in and offered to water the plants! Such a relief while I was away, and my cat seems happy :)”
“We had a meet-and-greet with Anneke prior to her house and petsitting next week. She is delightful! Great communication. Sweet with the animals. We immediately felt great peace of mind. We look forward to having her care for our furry ones during our vacation.”
“Kassandra was very communicative (we appreciated the photos and updates!) and clearly took great care of our two cats during her drop in visits. We would book her again.”
“Ashley arrived on time, and took great care of the cats. She feed them, and played with them. Checked and cleaned the litter. She cleaned out the wet cat food cans, as requested, and made sure their food and water was full and clean.”
“Kristy was amazing! She is so kind and very thorough with her care. My dog is 15 and has some mobility issues but Kristy made me feel comfortable leaving her in her care. She was on time and sent me updates and photos. I definitely recommend using her for your dog care and I will definitely be using her in the future!”
“Mel always plays with our cats and they love when she comes to visit! Mel leaves details and videos, and asks questions if she isn't sure. She even used the broom to get the cat toys from the under the couch for them. She even checks on our parakeets :) Thanks, Mel!”
About: I have two little monsters and regularly foster/rescue cats when needed. I love all cats of all ages and sizes. From down to earth to bouncing of the walls. They are all the best! I can give medication to cats that need them and help trim nails if they are willing to let me!
About: I have been working at a local animal hospital for the past four years but loving animals for much longer! Growing up, I was always the person that would volunteer to watch friends and family member’s pets. When I started working at the animal hospital, I was introduced to clients who needed at-home pet sitting/walking and realized how much joy comes from directly interacting with pets in a comfortable environment. I have experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes and I am able to administer most medications. I understand the stress of being away from your fur-baby so I am committed to help easing that stress by communicating well and treating your pet like my own. As a bonus, I have always been involved with photography so I make sure to send plenty of photos! My schedule at the animal hospital varies week to week but if I am working, I am still able to take care of your pet in the morning before work, during my lunch break and after my shifts. I am currently reducing my hours to dedicate more time to pet sitting so it is flexible! If possible, I do like to do a meet and greet ahead of time for all new pets. This allows me to walk through their routine with you and make sure I know what each pet’s quirks so that I can tailor a plan to ensure they are in a safe environment. Some dogs can be trusted to be alone but some cannot and that’s okay! I am flexible and can make adjustments based on the pets needs. If the dog stays at my home, it is kept tidy with nothing left out that can be snatched by a naughty puppy (AKA mine! LOL). I also have a fenced in yard that’s perfect for playing in and I am near walking trails. The dog will need to be friendly with other dogs and cats in order to be boarded at my home.
“Sophia did a great job caring for our two cats for a week while we were on vacation! She was great at sending updates, including pictures and videos, and made my shy kitties comfortable. I highly recommend Sophia!”
“Katharine did an excellent job taking care of my cat via drop-in visits while I was on vacation. Katharine is kind and friendly, very responsible, and experienced with cats, as a cat owner herself. She does a perfect job following directions and communicating, and she was very easy to work with. I highly recommend booking Katharine as your Rover, and I hope to work with her again in the future.”
“Julie was wonderful! I was able to relax on my vacation knowing my kitty was in the best hands. Came home to a relaxed kitty cat and a tidy litter box. Would love to book with Julie again!”
“Gianna took great care of my cat and fish for a week while I was away. She was attentive, communicative, and clearly understood that my cat needs a lot of attention and interaction. It gave me peace of mind knowing both of my pets were well cared for while I was gone. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 11 years of experience who provides a safe, clean, and loving environment. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your fur baby, and I’ll treat them like part of the family. I enjoy walks, playtime, and making sure each dog gets plenty of attention and affection. I can’t wait for all the new amazing pets I will get to meet and have the privilege of taking care of! I work full-time 8am- 4pm Monday through Friday, so best with dogs that are comfortable being home alone during the workday. Before and after work, I’ll provide walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. On evenings and weekends, I’ll have much more time to spend with them! I grew up with dogs and have loved caring for them my entire life. After recently losing my family dog to old age, I want to continue sharing that love by caring for other people’s pets. I provide a safe, loving environment, follow each pet’s routine, and treat every animal like family. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I absolutely love cats. My family has 7. I have been a cat lover since I was 8 years old. I work in a vet clinic and am comfortable distributing meds, cleaning litter boxes, feeding , watering, clipping nails , etc. I love any cat like its my own.

Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
“Jialin and John took great care of our Noodle while we attended a friend’s wedding in the area. We are not NY locals and the decision to bring our dog on the trip with us was somewhat last minute, so we were so lucky and grateful to find people to care for Noodle for a full day on such short notice. We received many photos and videos throughout the day which reassured us that Noodle was having fun and in great hands! If we lived in the area we would 100% book them again, and we’re honestly bummed that they can’t be our regular dog sitters due to distance. We are very satisfied with the care they provided and we highly recommend them!!”
“My dog had a great time on a last minute daycare visit with Logan, and was happy and tired coming home. Logan was extremely flexible and friendly and had a good setup for dogs to free roam in and out of the house into a fenced backyard. Will absolutely book again!”
“With both me and my boyfriend working in healthcare and having crazy schedules, we decided to get a puppy. Then our work schedules got flipped and we were panicking on what to do with little man while we both had to work Christmas Eve and day and 12hr shifts. Then came a Christmas miracle, Kaitlyn and her amazing family watched over little Apollo. I was so nervous as this was my first time using Rover and I was unsure about the legitimacy, but Kaitlyn had great reviews and went above and beyond to make Apollo feel welcomed in her home and. She stuck to his feeding and training plan, tuckered him out with tons of play and made sure to update me with adorable pictures throughout the day! If you have a chance to book with her I would say absolutely do it, I would trust her with a human child!!”
“Kenia is kind, flexible and communicative. The second day I brought my anxious rescue poodle to her, she sprinted up the steps and could NOT wait to get inside! Her warmth is unmatched and she brought me great comfort knowing my pup was in a safe, loving environment while I tended to family needs. Will definitely use Kenia again if I’m in the area, and highly recommend anyone in need use her too!!”
About: I'll provide constant supervision of your pet. I enjoy interacting with animals. Although I am not a professional dog handler I have had a dog in the house for the past 12 years. I will do my best to provide competent care for your pet. I am currently retired from the Columbia County jail, after completing 23 years. I am a Navy veteran. My wife and I have twin boys who are all grown up and out of the house. As a result of this I have become a little bored. I would appreciate your consideration when deciding on who to entrust the care of your pet while you are away. You will be able to be rest assured that they are being taken care of. I am usually available all the time except for the occasional vacation I might go on. Weekends are no problem either. I am pretty much available year round. I like to hang out with my dog all day. Adding more animals to the mix is no problem. I like taking walks with them and I also have a fenced yard.
“Keegan is the best 😍 he shows my dog so much love and affection. He communicates well, is trustworthy and keeps me updated with photos. He is such an amazing person and we are so grateful to have him in our lives. I trust him with all animals.”
“Cache always answered messages promptly and provided frequent updates of how Macie was doing while I was at work. She asked questions about the routine, overall habits, and any specific medical issues.. So I felt very comfortable leaving Macie with Cache 🙂↕️. I left Macie with her for the day, and some nights I’ll probably do the same for work; I’m grateful to have someone in Albany that I can entrust my precious Macie with. Thank you and I will be booking with you soon!”
“Saskia has a lovely home and managed all the different dogs in her care, including her two adorable Pomeranians, so seamlessly. I felt very comfortable knowing she had everything under control. She sent me cute pictures and updates throughout the day. I would highly recommend her to anyone traveling through the area who wants peace of mind knowing their little ones are being cared for with love and attention!”

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.

“Mark & Sylva were great hosts for my dog when we needed a few hours of care while my son toured a nearby college. They were welcoming and kind and did a great job with her. I'd happily book again if we're in Troy in the future. Thank you!”
“Tate has loved the care and attention and exploring new things at the Clubhouse. Christopher and Chelsea have been absolutely fantastic and I’m so happy that Tate has a “second home” filled with love and activities to fill her days. Can’t wait to keep coming back regularly!”
“MaryEllen was all I could have asked for and more to watch my little girl Nala! She was kind, easy to work with, responsive, and thoughtful! She went above and beyond to make Nala feel at home and welcome! I will absolutely ask her to watch Nala again!”

But I can do all the care you need me to do at your house.

“Greg is the best!! My two dogs can be shy with new people but they instantly warmed up to him and they come back from their walks so happy! He's very punctual and goes the extra mile to make the pups happy!”
“We love Tara! Our dog Breezy has been so happy with her. She’s professional, communicative, and very skilled in handling doggos. Breezy can be very stubborn and tries to assert himself as in charge but Tara handles him beautifully by being calm, firm, caring, and consistent. He highly approves of her as a daily walker and as a dog sitter/boarder. When he’d stay with her he’d always get lots of attention, which of course he loves and which we love in a sitter. We highly recommend Tara for pet care!”
“Katharine was extremely easy to work with! She assisted in fulfilling a last minute request, and got along great with my dog! She was able to get my pup to take a walk and eat her food, which are often difficult tasks due to my dogs anxiety. Would 100% recommend Katharine to others!!”
“This was my first experience entrusting my puppy with a dog walker, and Lydia exceeded my expectations. She’s very communicative, open to my requests, and took great care of my little girl. Lydia also takes the cutest pictures! I’d recommend her, and I’ll be a repeat client for sure.”

I am available many of hours of the day during the week and weekend. I will not accept a job that I cannot reasonably provide care for the pet.

Pets receive lots of attention, playtime, and cuddles. I offer enrichment activities like toys and outdoor walks.

When your pet is with me it becomes a part of my family and is treated as such. I look forward to training or caring for your animals! I can train your dog in a multitude of ways. I work a lot of animals with anxiety and behavioral issues. I can easily crate your dog, cat or any other animal if needed.

So availability is always subject to change. A heads up is very necessary in order to ensure I can take care of your pet when they may need it! I always respect whatever boundaries the person who’s pet I am sitting sets. If possible I love to take the pets to places where they can safely run and have fun. If not I make sure to take the pet for long walks, and of course keep them entertained in the house for colder rainy days. Treating the pet with respect and care is my upmost priority.
About: I’ve had my own animals, both cats and dogs (mainly cats) since I was 6 years old. I’ve had to administer insulin before to my diabetic cat that has since passed. My experience with dogs are mainly of the bigger size (I had a pitbull/boxer mix and a pure bred chow chow). I’m currently working as a Direct Support Professional overnights 9pm-9am Thursday through Saturday (technically Sunday 9am). So I’m pretty open for picking up last minute gigs if needed. I would love to have a break down of your pets day to day. Typically when they are most ready to play or eat. When potty breaks need to be done around.

“Very responsive. Provided updates and pictures. Theo enjoyed his time and received a ton of attention from Chris and Jia. When we're out of town again we will be reaching out.”
“We had a great experience with Lori! She was very communicative before and throughout Ollie’s stay. Her home was warm and inviting for the pups staying with her and the fenced in yard was a huge bonus! We hope to have Ollie visit with Lori again soon!”
“Kaitlyn was amazing! She helped us out when we were in a pinch and needed dog sitting for a weekend with only one days notice! We had never had Lucy boarded anywhere before and we were a bit nervous about the process, but it went so smoothly! She sent pictures to reassure my kiddos she was being well taken care of! I would definitely recommend her services and will be using her again for dog sitting in the future!”
“Cache is absolutely amazing with our nervous boy, we appreciate all that she does for him while he’s there with her! He loves all the fruit he gets to snack on especially!”
“Alex was WONDERFUL! He went above and beyond to take care of my 70lb foster puppy, Sony. Took him on long walks and to the dog park ?. He was also super helpful when I couldn’t get the crate into my car. He went above and beyond by picking up the crate and the pup at my apartment. Sony was so happy and relaxed when he got back home. I will definitely book with Alex again.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the comfort and care Saskia provided to our Golden Retriever. Just on Day 2, the picture I got was our little boy flat on his back, paws up, sound asleep! He was so comfortable and happy, he did his usually chill yoga pose lol. I’m going to try and attach the picture I got. I would 100% request Saskia for pet care and will absolutely recommend her to all my friends and family. 10 stars if I could!”
“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!”
“Darcy was wonderful and we felt very comfortable leaving our pup with her family. Our dog was well cared for and came home happy. We will highly recommend Darcy to friends and family who also need dog sitting services. Thank you Darcy!”
“Alyson was wonderful! She was very patient with my dogs, even when they got nervous and peed on her floor. They quickly warmed up to her and her dog, and from the photos she sent, it was obvious they were having a great time. I will definitely rebook with Alyson.”
“We couldn’t have been happier with our first experience leaving our dog with Kyle. Her love of dogs is obvious. She took such good care of him and kept in regular contact with us with pictures and videos. He came home happy and unstressed. Actually, I’m not sure he wanted to come home 😆. We definitely recommend her!”
“Great experience! My dog was very happy and well cared for. The service was friendly, professional, and attentive. I really appreciated how gently they treated my dog and kept me updated. I would definitely recommend them to other dog owners!”
“Candice was absolutely wonderful!!!!!!!! This was my first time leaving my baby boy with anyone! I was kept updated with messages and pics. Would definitely recommend and/or book with Candice again.”
“Samantha was wonderful to work with - sent lots of great updates on our pup throughout the visit and we felt totally at ease knowing Milo was in good hands. Definitely recommend Samantha!”
“Mary and Todd are the absolute best dog sitters! Their great care for our dog Toby gives us a lot of peace of mind. We know he is having a great time — it shows in the photos that Mary sends to us throughout his stay.”
