“I'm thrilled that I found Maegan to care for my dog Finnigan when I go away. Finnigan's first overnight with Maegan was a complete success and I didn't have to worry about a thing! Finn loved her and he loved being with other dogs. I most definitely recommend Maegan as a caregiver for your fur baby!”
“It is such a relief to find a sitter for your dog and have peace of mind. This couple are a gem. We received a bunch of videos and pictures to show how much fun our dogs were having while we were attending an event. Highly recommend!”
“From the very first meet I knew we were leaving our pups in good hands with Gillian! She treated our dogs like her own and navigated some tricky situations when it appeared that Chloe was upset by the change of mom and dad leaving and needed some special attention. They quickly became well adjusted and had a great time! The photos and videos and updates were so welcome so we could check in while we were away. Thank you, Gillian!”
“Jen did a great job of taking care of our "girls" while we were away. We loved that she sent pictures everyday so we could see how they were doing. She was great at informing us on what they were up to and/or asking questions about their habits/needs. We definitely will be using Jen next time we need someone to take care of our dogs.”
“This is our 3rd or 4th time booking with John and he never disappoints! He is always such a pleasure and was even able to help us out last minute AND over a holiday weekend! He takes such great care of our elderly dog who usually doesn’t do well in new environments. We are so thankful to have found John :)”

I groom dogs during the week when I’m done working I am free and certain days i have free time to care for others loved babies Care for your pets in your home where they are safe and happy, teach me how you and they like to be loved and cared for and I will always follow every direction given.
“Jack took our dog for boarding on short notice and sent us pictures periodically showing that he was having a good time. I would definitely bring him for a stay again.”
“I see why Jude is a star sitter, she was amazing with Remy, always keeping me updated with photos. Remy liked it so much he was whining when it was time to go home, he didn't want to go!! I will definitely keep her for a long time hopefully!!”
“Mary is the perfect Rover for us. We left Corby, our yorkie-mix with Mary and never worried once. We knew she missed her two little dogs and would spoil Corby. He had a great time in her fenced in yard and made himself right at home on the sofa and checking out the activity outside. A quiet country setting Corby will be visiting every time we go away. She sent us picture updates and notes.”
“Kathleen took excellent care of my chihuahua, Cody. Over the course of a month, I boarded him with her a few times each week, and I always felt confident he was in great hands. She was responsive, kind, and incredibly patient, not just with my (very energetic!) chihuahua 🙃, but with me as well. I’m so grateful for the care she provided and would highly recommend Kathleen to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”
“Stephanie took wonderful care of our Chihuahua, Ms Hazel Nut Mutt Face (aka Hazel) while we were visiting family in the area. I was a little apprehensive about leaving our pup with someone we hadn't met before, but as soon as we met Stephanie and saw how kind, gentle, and caring she was, I immediately felt at ease. She kept us updated throughout our pup's stay with frequent communication and adorable photos, which gave us great peace of mind. We were so pleased with the care she provided that we'll definitely be booking with Stephanie again whenever we visit family in the area. I highly recommend her!”
“Megan took great care of my 2 dogs while I was away and terrific to deal with. She really went out of her way to make sure they were taken care of and providing me with updates and pics throughout thier stay. She was also very accomadating when my schedule was changing as well as dealing with my one dog who is very anxious and hyper active. He was more at ease with her than I would have anticipated after meeting for the first time. I will be using her again in the near future and would definitely recommend.”
“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!”
“Peg was so kind to watch Bogey this weekend when our sitter plans had fallen through last minute. It had been several months since Bogey stayed with Peg, but he was immediately excited when we arrived and rushed toward the house. He loved playing with her pups and the other dogs in the fenced in backyard. I appreciated Peg’s periodic updates during the stay. Highly recommend - your pup will be in great hands!”
“Tiffany took very good care of my schnoodle Sam for 4 nights. She gave him his insulin injections without any issues and kept me informed daily of his eating habits and activities. Tiffany even sent me pictures and video daily!! I will definitely call Tiffany again to watch over Sam when I travel next! He came home happy and healthy!”

“Kelly was great! She was reliable, communicative, and took such great care of my cats while I was away. It gave me peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. Wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Alex followed all the directions I had for jacks feeding/med schedule and provided daily photos and details on each visit! I knew I was leaving him in good hands after our meet and greet and even though Jack is a shy boy, Alex was able to still give him his meds and even got some purrs out of him by the last day. Highly recommend and will definitely call again when I need a sitter for Jack!?”
“Haley has been wonderful with my puppy, Gus! It's such a relief knowing he's in good hands while I'm at work. She's reliable, communicates well, sends updates, and always makes sure he gets plenty of potty time and play. It's clear she genuinely cares about him, and he's extremely comfortable with her. I highly recommend Haley to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
“Angela treated our kitties so well and went above and beyond to be communicative with us and send detailed updates. Our kitties were in such a happy mood when we arrived home. We would definitely call Angela again next time we head out of town and feel at ease knowing they are in good hands🥰”
“Miakoda did such a wonderful job with our cats. One is a flight risk and she was very careful in following our routine going into the house so he can’t escape. She was very communicative as well which was helpful. Will definitely use her as a sitter again.”
“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!”
“Abigail was wonderful with my cats! She was reliable, communicative, and sent regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while being away. It was clear my cats were well cared for and comfortable which is all I could ask for. Highly recommend! 🐱💕”
“Cassandra was very professional from start to finish requesting a meet and greet prior to booking and communicating every visit. She sent pics during each session and my girls were happy and healthy when I returned. Highly recommend Cassandra!!”
“Caitlynn is the absolute best. I have 3 crazy pitbulls and she handles them beautifully. They are not easy dogs to keep safe, but Caitlynn makes it look effortless. It’s been years since my husband and I have been able to travel, but now that we have Caitlynn in our lives there are many things that we can look forward to knowing we can count on her. She stayed for over 2 hours getting to know us, our home, and furbabies before we had her over. She really made sure we were all comfortable and we are so grateful for that. We love Caitlynn and can’t wait to have her back💖”
“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’ve grown up with Cats my entire life. I have 2 mischievous cats, Severus and Cliff. I loved and cared for my own cats throughout my life but also at a job for 16 years. I worked for a boarding, grooming and daycare facility and cared for cats that were being boarded and groomed with us. I am well experienced in feeding, giving medication and the thorough cleaning of litter boxes.
“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!”

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: 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.
“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!”
“Taylor is such a life saver being able to watch Whisper on such a short notice. On top of that she was absolutely wonderful with him. She sent me pictures and videos of him running around and having a fantastic time. I would definitely recommend her and would have her watch Whisper again”
“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 have been a dog owners for 15 years. My two beautiful shitzus have since gone to the rainbow bridge. I miss those wagging tails and long walks. I would love to share my time and love with your pet. I know how difficult it is to find a sitter and be comfortable while your apart from your fur babies. I have recently retired and home all day. I live in Greenfield Center on 8 private acres nestled in the woods with a large fenced in backyard . I am retired and home all day , I mostly garden and work around the house. Pets would be an added pleasure to my home I have a fenced in backyard. I live in the country at the end of a cul-de-sac my house is one level which makes it easy for little ones and elderly pets.
“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.”
“Samantha was great with my 10 month old cardigan welsh corgi. Although she’s timid and more reserved when I’m not around, Samantha managed to get her out of her shell by the end of the day. Would highly recommend, I plan to be a repeat customer for sure!”
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for animals, I bring reliability, patience, and genuine love for pets to every booking. While I was in the Navy, I’ve consistently sought opportunities to care for others’ animals and now that my military service is over, I can’t wait to spend even more time with some four legged creatures. I excel with medium-sized dogs and active pups, but I can accommodate most breeds. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’m living my best life as a stay at home dog mom while finishing up some schooling. I can provide daily walks and enrichment any day for however long your pup needs. My fenced in yard is perfect for play and I have extensive knowledge of trails in the area that are good for walks/runs. At this time, I am unable to accommodate staying in another dog’s home due to my own pup’s needs.
“We booked Anna last minute because we were taking a road trip out of town. Anna was so responsive and kept us up to date with pictures. Her family was all very nice and welcoming with us and our puppy lucky. Everything was so great but what I think sets Anna apart is her willingness to go above and beyond! We got printed photos of lucky’s time during his stay with Anna and a report card of how lucky did! Anna was really great and we can’t wait to use her again soon!”
“These are the best people my dog has encountered. They answered me for a last minute request on Rover which was a huge blessing. My dog got the chance to experience life on a boat for a day. They interacted with her the entire day, and wore her out. They both gave my dog so much love and she needed it because we're going through a hard time with a temporary small living situation. They were very respectful of how I have raised my own dog and wanted to be positive that I was okay with having my dog going on a boat ride. My dog got to swim for the first time.”
“This was our first experience with Rover and our first sitter for our “little” pup. Lauren was great. Very communicative & friendly. Her ranch was such a great experience for our dog with so much to explore. Thank you Lauren”
“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!”
“Nat is amazing! She is super friendly and I appreciated how patient she was with my dog. The communication was also excellent and prompt. I loved that she sent photos with updates. Thanks again Nat!!”
About: Grew up working on a farm. I'm currently a board member of a local non-profit cat rescue. Have worked with animals a majority of my life. I work seasonally from December till April otherwise have open availability for any types of needs. Can cater to just about any request that is given. I have a large yard that is not fenced in but a chain with plenty of room for running. I currently own two dogs myself which can either co mingle with your puppy or I have space available for them to be separate as well.
“Marianne answered me immediately when I was trying to last minute find a sitter for my pup Luna. She ended up watching Luna the whole week as I was desperate to find someone to help me out since I just moved here and Luna is having such a hard time adjusting to our new apartment while I’m working. Marianne has done nothing but love luna and has been so amazing with her! I finally see lunas personality coming out since adjusting because she has so much fun with Marianne :) Not to mention I have gotten some amazing advice from her in regards to helping my pup adjust! Took luna for several walks each day, played with her, constantly updated me with pics/vids and how luna was doing, and listened to my care plan. We will absolutely be consistently seeing Marianne!”
“Our pup has not done a lot of doggy day care, but she seemed to really enjoy her time with Tiffany and her dogs. Tiffany sent great pictures and updates. Which was nice for us nervous dog parents. Definitely going to be a repeat customer.”
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.

“Sabrina is prompt, reliable, communicative, and worked with me on a last minute booking when my circumstances changed. She has been pleasant and flexible to accommodate our needs. She is great with Bruin and I have already booked her again!”
“Jeanny was great with my dog, Oaklin. She spent plenty of time with him keeping him company, taking him on a long walk, making sure his water was topped off, and he got his treat I left him. She communicated with me to let me know what was going on and sent me pictures to reassure me that my pup was happy.”
About: I’ve spent my entire life caring for animals of all kinds—big, small, and everything in between. From growing up surrounded by dogs and cats to earning a degree in Equine Reproduction and working as a veterinary assistant, animal care has always been at the heart of who I am. Over the past 20 years, I’ve raised four amazing Pitbulls, a spunky Jack Russell, and four cats. Our animals truly are our kids. I’ve cared for puppies, kittens, seniors, and special needs pets, and I’m highly experienced with giving medications, recognizing health issues, and providing basic first aid. Whether I’m staying in your home or dropping in for visits, your pets will be treated like family—because that’s how I see them. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust, and I’m here to make sure your pets are safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I do my best to stay flexible for you and your pets. I’m available for most bookings, including weekends, holidays, and even last-minute requests. Whether you need a quick drop-in, an extended stay, or an emergency sitter, I’m here to help. My goal is to make your life easier while giving your pets the consistent, loving care they deserve. When I’m caring for your pets in your home, my top priority is keeping their routine consistent and their environment calm. I’ll follow your instructions closely—from feeding schedules and potty breaks to favorite toys and cuddle habits—because I know how important the little details are. I aim to keep things stress-free by maintaining your pet’s normal routine, minimizing disruption, and giving them the same love and attention you would. I always treat my clients’ homes with respect, keep things clean and tidy, and make sure you’re updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pets are happy and safe.
About: I have owned cats my entire life and spent years volunteering with numerous animal rescue groups. I have been rescuing outdoor kittens since I was young and have had many pets from dogs to rabbits to guinea pigs to rats and mice and gerbals and reptiles and fish. I have countless years of experience with all types of animals from skittish cats to fear aggressive doggies and am looking forward to meeting your special furry family. I work full time from home so I have some flexibility during the day but only if you are super close to me. After work there is full flexibility. I do my best to make sure that your fluffy family is able to keep as much to their normal routine as possible. It is important that they feel comfortable while their family is away and I find that normal routine tends to help ease anxiety.
About: Hello, my name is Alie and my #1 passion is animals! In search of my calling in life, I have found myself working for a pet grooming salon in my hometown, Milton, NY! I spend my days Tuesday-Saturday bathing and grooming neighborhood dogs then go home to love on my own German Shepard/Belgian Malinois mix and Tabby cat! My weekends are filled with time spent with my family (pets are family!) and my pet sitting clients. I have spent my whole life around dogs and cats, helping to fulfill all of their needs, and have been formally pet-sitting for the public since 2021. Since I was about 12 years old, I have gained experience caring for dogs for friends and family, providing basic care such as feeding and potty breaks. As I grew, my experience expanded to include transportation to and from the vet and groomer, feeding, oral medication administration, ear drops/ointment, eye drops, walking, and (the best part of course) playing! My experience also includes my feline friends, most often multi-cat homes, for regular feeding, oral medication administration, ear ointment, litter box cleaning, and, you guessed it, playing! I currently work at a grooming salon in Milton Tuesday-Saturday, so on those days I am available to love on your pets in the morning before I go to work and in the evening! On Sundays and Mondays, I can come for a visit during the mid-day hours. All of my clients are the highlight of my work-day, I look forward to every visit so you can trust me to be there when you need me! Your pets safety and comfort are of the utmost importance to me, I take any time necessary to ensure your pet's comfortable with me being inside their home, even if I exceed the typical 30m or 60m visit length! Working at a grooming salon, I have honed my skills with dog body language so I know when your pups are upset. My experience with cats has also taught me when the kitties aren't happy as well! Meet & Greets are a necessary part of the booking process to ensure everyone's safety over the course of a booking. All bookings that include a dog are required to have a one-time complimentary Meet & Greet prior to booking. Dogs are careful about the humans they trust, espcially with their parents gone, so I'd like to make friends with you present! Other bookings that only include cats are not required to have a Meet & Greet prior to booking but you are more than welcome to request one! Any additional Meet & Greets that are requested beyond the initial complimentary Meet & Greet will be booked at the drop-in rate listed on my profile. At the first visit, slow and quiet are the name of the game, I take my time going about their routine so they can get used to me! After my tasks are done, it's my goal to make them as comfy as possible by offering them their favorite toys and treats at their own pace. By the end of the booking, my aim is to be your pets new best friend and your go-to sitter!
“Miakoda was fantastic with our dogs! She took the time to meet them and make sure their needs were met and she handled them both really well. She was patient, confident and clearly very good with dogs. We felt very comfortable with her caring for our boys!”
About: Growing up, I've had a couple of dogs. Our first was a mix (part husky, terrier, etc.) named O'Doolie who lived to be 16! I was young when we had her, so I don't remember her puppy years. Our other dog we had since I was in elementary school up to my early 20s was Dixie Lee. She was a Miniature Schnauzer and was the sweetest dog ever! I enjoyed bathing her, brushing her teeth, and giving her so much love and attention. My husband and I work together as landscape designers! During the winter months, our schedule is very slow. This provides us more time to engage ourselves in other fun and creative endeavors! Currently, I have an unfenced backyard. I live with my husband in a small home. In the future, we’d love to put in a fence— we have just found we haven’t needed to just yet!
About: I've taken care of animals for 20+ years and I've been a dog groomer for 3 years now and I understand and can do everything under the sun with them, from administering home vet care such as shots and pills to helping to train new puppies or older dogs in a new environment to taking care of special needs pets or Senior Care. Maybe they have a certain schedule that most people can't do? Maybe they need in-home grooming such as hair cuts, bath and brush or nail clippings-nail grinding. I can do it all with love and compassion for the pets and their owners in life. From walking to overnight stays, you can rest assure that they will be safe and loved while in my care as if they were my own. I have a full time job right now but I always make time for the pet in your life, from dog walking to drop ins to overnight stays in your home for the dog or cat in your life. I take care of your pet the way you want me to, walk me through your home and show me everything you want me to do with them with a list and I will make sure your pet is loved and cared for just the way you do.

About: I’ve had animals since I was a young girl. As a child we had cats. As a young adult I worked for a grooming, daycare, and boarding facility for 16 years. The only reason I stopped working was because of the birth of might twins.I also volunteered for a pet rescue, a pet shelter, and of course owned my own dogs, cats, and hamster. I’m a mom of 7! Some grown , some in college, and my youngest 2 are 9 year old twins. I have plenty of time during the days to walk, spend time, cuddle, and love on your furry family members. My specialty is mid day breaks/walks or check ins while you’re away or have a long day at work. I am aware of the tremendous responsibility it is caring for your pet. I have my own pups and kitties and will give the same love, care, and respect my babies receive.
About: I treat every fur baby as if they were my own. I am patient, thorough and flexible. I have 30 years of experience with cats and 20 years with dogs. Will take care of puppies/kittens to adults. I am very flexible in my schedule, as I am self-employed, so I will have plenty of time to walk, play or feed your baby. In your home I can take your baby out into your yard for potty or play time, or both. For the Kitties I can play with them, if they are in the mood, or be their temporary bed for those lap cats that love to be pet and pampered. I own a gray and white tuxedo cat named Sammy.
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: I've worked with horses my whole life, and I've had dogs growing up animals are a big part of my life, they replace my stress with love and fulfill my happiness i can relate to a dog better then i can with a human, animals will always be apart of my life no matter what i am doing, being with dogs is a way for me to be myself my availability is pretty flexible if i can help people that are in need of a dog walker then i am willing to abolish with the request. the AM hours are better for me seeings that i have horses to take care of and then teaching children how to ride later on in the day :) I currently run my own equine facility and I have my own dog and cats that I care for. I love that I can make a difference in the world when it comes to the equine community and I want to do the same for pet owners with dogs and cats. I have a invisible fence in my back yard for my dog , I would listen to what ever the client would need me to do for their pet.

“This is the 2nd time Mike has watched our 2 dogs, and this time it was for 2 weeks!! The dogs were happy and well cared for and we were able to enjoy our time overseas with no worries. Thank you Mike!! Apollo and Luna miss their friend Bear already!”
“I'm thrilled that I found Maegan to care for my dog Finnigan when I go away. Finnigan's first overnight with Maegan was a complete success and I didn't have to worry about a thing! Finn loved her and he loved being with other dogs. I most definitely recommend Maegan as a caregiver for your fur baby!”
“It is such a relief to find a sitter for your dog and have peace of mind. This couple are a gem. We received a bunch of videos and pictures to show how much fun our dogs were having while we were attending an event. Highly recommend!”
“Jen did a great job of taking care of our "girls" while we were away. We loved that she sent pictures everyday so we could see how they were doing. She was great at informing us on what they were up to and/or asking questions about their habits/needs. We definitely will be using Jen next time we need someone to take care of our dogs.”
“This is our 3rd or 4th time booking with John and he never disappoints! He is always such a pleasure and was even able to help us out last minute AND over a holiday weekend! He takes such great care of our elderly dog who usually doesn’t do well in new environments. We are so thankful to have found John :)”
About: I just lost my 13.5 year old shepherd, I have been skilled in taking care of him and his old age and needs, I spent his whole life training him in German and English. I spend all day with dogs and know dog behavior very well, I have worked in boarding facility’s giving meds and food and walking dogs and learning their specific personalities. I groom dogs during the week when I’m done working I am free and certain days i have free time to care for others loved babies Care for your pets in your home where they are safe and happy, teach me how you and they like to be loved and cared for and I will always follow every direction given.
“Jack took our dog for boarding on short notice and sent us pictures periodically showing that he was having a good time. I would definitely bring him for a stay again.”
“I see why Jude is a star sitter, she was amazing with Remy, always keeping me updated with photos. Remy liked it so much he was whining when it was time to go home, he didn't want to go!! I will definitely keep her for a long time hopefully!!”
“Kathleen took excellent care of my chihuahua, Cody. Over the course of a month, I boarded him with her a few times each week, and I always felt confident he was in great hands. She was responsive, kind, and incredibly patient, not just with my (very energetic!) chihuahua 🙃, but with me as well. I’m so grateful for the care she provided and would highly recommend Kathleen to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”
“Megan took great care of my 2 dogs while I was away and terrific to deal with. She really went out of her way to make sure they were taken care of and providing me with updates and pics throughout thier stay. She was also very accomadating when my schedule was changing as well as dealing with my one dog who is very anxious and hyper active. He was more at ease with her than I would have anticipated after meeting for the first time. I will be using her again in the near future and would definitely recommend.”
“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!”
“Peg was so kind to watch Bogey this weekend when our sitter plans had fallen through last minute. It had been several months since Bogey stayed with Peg, but he was immediately excited when we arrived and rushed toward the house. He loved playing with her pups and the other dogs in the fenced in backyard. I appreciated Peg’s periodic updates during the stay. Highly recommend - your pup will be in great hands!”
“Brad & Mery provided excellent communication via text and took wonderful care of our husky mix (who is a rescue and a stubborn pup) when we had to go out of town for the weekend. Highly recommend. Thank you!”
“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”
“Taylor is an animal lover and it shows! I feel 100% easy leaving our puppy with her. He has had a great time (2X visits) with an additional drop in. So thrilled I found her!”
“Where do I even begin? Heidi and her family were life savers. I had a different host that I had booked well over a month before my trip, and on the day of drop off I could not get a hold of her. I was in pure panic mode, and I found Heidi. She lives even closer to my home so that was another bonus. I got all the pictures and updates constantly. She treated my fur baby as if she were her own. She gave my girl a homemade pup cup, sweet potato and rice on her food, and all the snuggles. I know that she was truly in the best hands, and the first host falling through was a blessing in disguise. I would definitely book with her again!”
“Took great care of my pup! Was willing to accommodate his special needs. Received lots of updates and pictures. My pup had a great time and was well loved. Will be booking again in the future.”
