“Leaving Bounce with Julia while visiting Saratoga Springs was our first experience with Rover. Julia exuded warmth, competency and friendliness in all her online and in-person communications. Our dog can be hard to read: He has incredible bursts of energy, yet sleeps a lot. He loves other dogs, but in some instances becomes fearful of them. Julia assured us she would gauge his mood and decide to crate him or send him off for some group dog play, which is what resulted (dog play). When she drove him back to our hotel, he did not want to leave her car. So, that proved that all the good things we saw in Julia came true. Thank you for taking such care of our beloved Bounce! When we returned to Saratoga, we will also return Bounce to Julia's kind care.”
“Inge was awesome. Rosie had never been away from me for more than 8-10 hours and spent 4 days with Inge, and after a bit of misbehaving early due to separation anxiety, she settled right in. I spent my vacation at ease knowing she was in great hands with Inge, as she provided me daily updates and pics. I will definitely book Inge again for any future dog sitting needs.”
“Alex and her family were wonderful!! We were a little nervous at first boarding our rescue of only 7 months. But once meeting her and seeing how much she loves animals we knew it was the perfect choice. Her home is perfect with comfy areas to relax and a huge fenced for you dog to run around. Alex is so kind that she sends updates with photos! Our dog River had the best time and highly recommended her to others!”
“Odin highly recommends Elizabeth! Thank you, Elizabeth, for a great experience for us but especially for Odin! He had the best weekend with you and your dogs. We loved the updates and pictures you sent and Odin was worn out when he came home!”
“Words can not express how thankful I was to have met John on this app. My baby is an old girl with special needs. She wears a diaper and enjoys a calm, quiet atmosphere. Thank you so much for the daily pictures and communication. I am most thankful for the confident feeling I had through my trip. Knowing my sweet girl was well cared for. Highly recommend. Thanks John”
“Leaving our Layla with Peg was so comforting. We knew when we met her that she was the right choice to watch her while we were away. Layla got lots of love and lots of exercise. Not to mention much needed play time with other dogs. Peg kept us updated on how she was doing and sent lots of photos and videos. We highly recommend Peg!”
“Jen was amazing. Took my boy on the shortest of notice and sent pictures the whole time. My boy had a health concern that wasn’t bad enough for her to call me while I was away but was worth mentioning when I picked him up which I can’t even say how much I appreciate. I’ve had bad experiences leaving him before so I get very nervous but 10/10 I’d trust Jen with my dogs any day and would go out of my way to book with her 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!”
“Rebecca took wonderful care of our 14 year old Max (Shih Tzu). She gave us plenty of updates and pictures of the fun things he was doing. Max was happy when we picked him up, and tired from his fun stay when he got home. I’d highly recommend Rebecca!!”
“This was our second booking with Stephanie. She was very accommodating with our dog. It was so helpful that she dropped the dog at our home just as we arrived back home. Our dog arrived happy and well cared for. Stephanie has been reliable, a good communicator, and flexible with each of our bookings. We couldn't ask for a better fit!!”
“Chrissy was wonderful with our dog Ronin! She took extremely good care of him. She sent us plenty of pictures. You could not ask for a more kind and caring dog sitter! Ronin clearly had a good time staying with her. I highly recommend her!”
“We had a wonderful experience leaving our pup with Karen. She made us feel completely comfortable and most importantly Lulu was happy! We got frequent updates, Lulu got many walks and we couldn’t be happier with the care she received. Will def book again with Karen!”
“Very pleasant experience. Maegan was very patient and accommodating with my hectic travel schedule. I really appreciated the short-term notice and great, fast communication. My dog seemed to have a great time at her place, and I'm glad we visited her.”
“It was nice knowing the dogs would have a great time while we were away. They had so many other dogs to play with and so much land to run, play and sniff. Definitely going to board here again when we travel.”
“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.”
“Kathy looked after our 1yr old Cavalier for 2 nights while we were out of town. Kathy is a knowledgeable and caring dog lover and we have already booked another stay with her.”
“We used Carolyn again and she was exceptional as always. We received regular updates on the animals and lots of photos. Our furry family was very happy and well cared for while we were away.”
“Gillian was amazing with my dog, Cooper. She sent me daily updates, pictures and videos. Most days I received multiple messages saying n how he was doing. They really accommodated his needs and let me know when his eye doctor as a little runny. He was as able to sleep with someone, like at home, sleep during the day and enjoy the outside and long walks. I will always reach out to Gillian when I need someone to watch Cooper. He’s lonely today because he’s missing Gillian, Mitch and all his new doggie friends.”
About: I have worked and lived with working police k9s and pet dogs. I grew up around dogs, cats, and other animals. I foster kittens for the local animal shelter every year for last several years, so there may be some additional felines at times. I’ve delivered babies and have cared for sick animals. My last dog was a giant breed with special needs in the end, and now have a toy Mexican hairless dog, and one indoor/outdoor cat. It’s just me and the two pets so a nice quiet calm house with fenced yard and safe neighborhood with great walking paths. I really enjoy animals and will treat your pet with love and care. If I have to work that day they get whatever care they need in the AM and when I return, I go straight to them. Often I ask the neighbor to give a midday potty break to the dogs if needed! We go for a nice walk, or jog depending on the weather. Sometimes we walk to road other times through the woods. We may go for a little outting, I bring my dog whenever I can, or spend time in the yard hanging out. Couch cuddles are a must, every day for us lol. Days off I center around my pets as much as I can :) Basic necessities are a given: food, water, walking/playing, potty breaks! The cats litter gets scooped and dog poo cleaned up. If needed, medications administered. In my home the pets are family, and we are always willing to temporarily add to it - the more the merrier!

“I have said it before and I'll set it again, faith is the best cat sitter ever. Really. She is more than a cat sitter. She's a good friend and carer for my beloved Morgan.”
About: I’ve been around cats my entire life and have extensive hands on experience caring for them. I also frequently cared for 7 cats for a family member, helping with feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and making sure they were comfortable and well looked after. I’m comfortable with different cat personalities and understand the importance of patience, routine, and giving cats the care and attention they need.
“Abigail was great with my pups and always arrived on time. She made sure my dogs got a bathroom break and treats, as well as making sure they were comfortable before leaving. Highly recommend her for any pet care needs!”
About: Hi there! My name is Natalia and I live in South Burlington my little 12 year old fur baby (pug/daschund mix). I can understand and relate to the stress and importance of finding a trustworthy care giver. I would love to be able to give the kind of care to your little one like I would expect for my own. South Burlington and Williston area would work the best for me. I would love to meet your family and spend time with your little fur baby! :) I would be available Monday through Friday after 5pm (and before 8:30am depending on situation) and any time Saturday and Sunday. Willing to be flexible! 😁 My sweet Harley boy is an older pup who has incontinence and regularly wears diapers, so we understand that special pets sometimes have special needs!
“Allison is so lovely!! I knew my kitties were in great hands immediately upon meeting her. She is very sweet, kind and always sent photo updates during her visits. Hands down, I would book with Allison again next time I’m in need of cat care!”
“I cannot thank Kevin enough. He jumped in last minute during an emergency and kept me updated every step of the way. He was super prepared at all times and very kind. My kitties were thrilled with his care and happy and healthy when I returned. Thanks so much Kev-- you'll hear from me again!”
“Sarah was fantastic! She communicated with me daily and sent check in photos. This was my first time leaving my newer kittens for more than an overnight so I was feeling very anxious, but her attentiveness allowed me to relax and enjoy my vacation. The cats absolutely loved her!”
About: I’ve always had 2+ dogs since I was born and have cared for them ever since, they’re my absolute world and I’d be honored to help care for your pups too Im a full time student however out of school hours I am fully committed to playing with and loving on dogs as I normally would with my own:) In my opinion parenting a dog is just as important as a child and I’d never tell someone how to do that; so however you’d like me to care for your pets I am more than willing and able to do so!
“Becky was absolutely fantastic and totally helped me feel at ease while away. She sent multiple photos and videos, then even took out our trash before we returned!! That was no small thing and I've never even had pet sitting companies do that in the past! Becky is our new go-to now and her abilities show by our cat's quick trust in her too (who usually doesn't like anybody new). Thank you so very much Becky!”
“Carolyn is always consistently great with Ginny. She takes very good care of Ginny and she will always be my go to kitty sitter. Ginny loves her and is always excited to see her.”
About: I owned cats since I was five, and I currently have three! Having grown up around cats, we tend to get along great and I especially enjoy caring for them. My first cat was an old man named Max, and two of my current cats I've raised since they were kittens, whom I've now had for seven years. My newest is a baby Siberian named Zuko who I've raised since the age of 8 weeks, who just turned one year old! I've also cat sitted for several friends and family members, and understand how cats can be around strangers they haven't quite warmed up to yet.
“Ella was great with our boys, one has a lot of medications and she did a great job making sure he got all his pills each day, the cats and apartment were both in perfect condition when we got home and I couldn't be happier!”
“This was first time using ROVER and selecting C.B. was definitely a great decision. She took great care of Rocko and communicated well. Seh committed to and followed thru on all the visits we requested. Her messages and pictures reassured us Rocko was in good hands. Many thanks to you C.B.”
“We are thrilled with Ella’s care of Bacon. Our Main Coon likes to behave like a guardian dog when we are not at home, but he felt comfortable with Ella. Such peace of mind during our trip. She is a keeper. We recommend her to anyone who has grumpy cats that need care.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by pets since I was born. I grew up walking, feeding, bathing, and loving my first two dogs—a Chocolate Lab and a giant Weimaraner. Since those two, my pet family expanded to a Yellow Lab, a rescue mutt (Australian Kelpie), a Hound mix, an Australian Shepherd-Pitbull mix, a Great Dane, a Pomeranian, a three-legged rescue dog, three horses, five goats, two pigs, three mini horses, and a cat. Throughout my life, I’ve helped to take care of each and every pet that we’ve had. While it’s not always easy, I love every second of it. I am home from college for the summer (May-August), so I will be very flexible and available to help out you and your pets :) I will always make sure your fur baby is happy, healthy, and comfortable. In my care, your pet will always be my top priority. I will never take any job that I cannot 100% commit to.

“Adam and Julia were amazing! Very responsive to messages and sent pictures durning Nala and Charlie’s stay showing us how much fun they were having with the other dogs.”
“Walter had such a wonderful stay! He loved playing with the other puppies and came home ready for a long sleep! Great communication and felt very safe. Thanks so much!”
About: I have had pets since I was 4 years old! I love having pets in my home and making them a part of my family. My dog loves every dog she has ever met and loves to have a playmate! If you bring your pet to my house they will be treated like one of my family members! I work full time Monday-Friday 7:30-4, but my husband works from home and I am home all day during the weekends. My husband also loves dogs and has plenty of free time during his work day to take walks and give lots of love! I have a fenced in back yard with lots of room for running. We are on a cul de sac so there is very little traffic in my part of the neighborhood. My home also has several baby gates to make sure that your pet is safe if I have to leave them in the house for a short amount of 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”
“Carolyn watched my pup while I was in the area visiting with a friend. She was super easy to communicate with leading up to and during the the stay. Carolyn was so nice and made me feel comfortable leaving Charlie with her. I highly recommend her! Thanks Carolyn!”
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 😉
“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!”
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.
“Devin was super cool and caring. He made me very comfortable by taking care of my 14 month old high energy German Shepherd. He was always available for a call or text and kept me informed about my pups activities during the day care. Will definitely use again, he has the love towards pets, also has a great fenced yard and good facilities to get the energy out from the pups. I am happy and pleased to have used his services.”
“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: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 5 years old, when I got my very first dachshunds—Peanut and Sweetie. By the time I was 9, I had adopted a shelter dachshund and raised two more dachshund puppies, bringing my total to five dogs at once. I personally trained all of them, which gave me a strong foundation in understanding dog behavior, especially with independent or energetic breeds like dachshunds. Throughout middle school and my teen years, I helped neighbors by dog sitting, walking, and doing drop-in visits, often just for playtime and companionship. One of the dogs I cared for regularly was a sweet senior named Duke, who I’d take outside and spend time with while his owner was away. These experiences taught me how to adapt my care for both high-energy pups and older dogs who need a gentler, more patient approach. In addition to my pet care experience, I am also a dancer, choreographer, and educator. Through years of teaching and working with students of all ages, I’ve developed strong skills in patience, attentiveness, and understanding individual needs—qualities that naturally carry over into the way I care for animals. I also have years of experience caring for cats—both my family’s and now my own sweet cat, Tom. I understand feline behavior, how to earn their trust, and how to create a calm, safe environment where they feel comfortable while you’re away. As a stay-at-home mom to my 2-month-old baby, I’m home often and have a flexible, attentive schedule. I truly value creating a calm, safe, and loving environment—for both pets and people. Whether it’s puppies, seniors, small breeds, or shy kitties, I bring patience, love, and reliable care to every visit. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life. I genuinely love spending time with animals, and I build my schedule to be available when pets need me most—whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime. I’m flexible, dependable, and happy to accommodate different routines, including weekend or last-minute needs. Caring for pets doesn’t feel like a chore to me—it’s something I truly enjoy. I prioritize each pet’s safety and comfort above all else. In your home, I follow your routines closely to ensure your pet feels secure and stress-free. I always keep a close eye on surroundings during walks, avoiding unsafe areas or triggers. I’m familiar with handling pets with anxiety, special diets, or medication needs, and I treat every space with respect—leaving it clean and exactly how I found it. Whether I’m in your home or caring for your pet during a walk, you can count on me to show up with calm energy, attentiveness, and love.
About: I have been an animal lover since I was a young child (when I found out where meat came from at age 4, I became a vegetarian… if that tells you anything!) I was an adoring dog owner until 2023 when my beloved Oak (picture above) went over the rainbow bridge. I haven’t gotten another pup yet, but I love spending time with others’ companions in the meantime while I wait to meet my next soul dog! I am very attentive and encourage owners to give me detailed instructions on feeding, medications, behavioral tendencies, and any little important idiosyncrasies; I know what it’s like to leave your baby with someone else, and building trust alongside solid communication is incredibly important. I’m excited to start this new side quest and meet some new friends (furry ones and human ones alike)! I work from home! So I have flexibility and am good with short notice. Having a pup around brightens my day. It feels like they help me as much as I help them! I live in a pet-friendly building in a walkable part of downtown Glens Falls where we can frolic (leashed of course) to our hearts’ content! I’m right around the corner from the dog park if your pup likes to play with others, if not, we can stroll to Crandall or around town. I will always follow your lead and stick to your pets’ preferred routine. I like to ask questions, send updates/photos, and ensure your pup is feeling at ease while you’re away.
About: Life-long dog and cat owner who makes sure your best friend gets what they need while you're away. In addition to my own dogs and cats, I've cared for many pets in the community while mom and/or dad are on the road. Available almost every day for dog walks and drop-ins. I set my own schedule so your pet always gets the care, when and where, we decide. Currently not offering pet-sitting in my home. Maybe in the future. In your home, I will leave it as I found it or better, and always secure.
“Alissa took great care of our dogs for the day while our family visited Great Escape. Alissa great with communication and is easy to work with. I highly recommend Alissa for you pet sitting needs.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, and have helped care for them from puppy to senior. I’ve been caring for my cats for the last 3 years. I have a deep love for animals and often care for strays when I can. I’m familiar with feeding, walking, and giving medication, and I’m reliable and attentive with every pet. I don’t start my next semester of college until September, so I’m very free and flexible throughout the summer. I have plenty of time to dedicate to pet care right now and can work around different schedules. Once school starts, I still plan to keep pet care in my routine with good availability outside of classes. I have a safe and calm environment for pets in my home. I have one small dog and two small cats, but they can easily be kept in separate areas if needed. I have a decent backyard for outdoor time, and my neighborhood has sidewalks, so walking dogs is easy and safe. I always make sure pets feel comfortable, cared for, and care for them like I would my own.
About: I love all animals!!! I really enjoy coming to your house and playing with your precious babies. I have cared for a variety of animals including dogs, cats, hamsters, rabbits, birds, turtles, and yes even snakes. I’ve even experienced breeding and nurturing 11 golden retrievers (3 adults and 8 puppies) at one time. I will come to your house to LOVE, feed, water, play, brush, walk, talk to, and even car rides with your beautiful pets. I’ve also been known to mop, water your plants, retrieve your mail, and take your garbage to the street. On numerous occasions, I’ve taken on jobs in Massachusetts and Vermont as mini vacations! I have a bubbly and friendly personality that animals respond well too! Reasonable rates, flexible hours, and many satisfied customers! I am retired from the county, which allows me to provide full time care to all my fury friends! I travel distances to watch your babies and occasionally welcome your pet to stay at my house. My goal is to watch pups in their own environment. It’s always difficult when Mom and Dad go away, but they are definitely less stressed if they get to stay home. This way they can feel safe and comfortable in their own surroundings
“Desiree was amazing, she responds very quickly. My 2 month old puppy came back so exhausted and I had updates and pics throughout the day. I will recommend everyone to her! And she is worth tipping because she gave excellent service.”
About: I have experience with most animals from farm animals to precious house pets. I am experienced with reactive dogs, behavioral problems, administrating medication, senior pets, following special pet care accommodations and more. I’ve been a nurse for over 10 years and am dependable and caring. Animals are my passion and I am eager to cuddle, play with, and love your pets while you are away. I currently am a nurse at a local facility and try to keep my availability updated however my schedule changes at times due to my work schedule so feel free to verify availability . Thank you for your understanding. I have a female and male cat who are familiar with other pets. Your pet will have full range of our home. Pets will be walked frequently and on leash.

“Samantha was really great! We booked her for a last minute dog walking request and she followed all instructions. Basil was so happy to walk with her, will definitely book again in the future?”
“Nicole is an awesome dog walker and caregiver, one of the best we've ever had. She took great care of our two French bulldogs and her communication and attention to detail is superb. Really glad we found her. She is highly recommended.”
About: I’ve had a family dog my entire life, so caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. I also have experience watching and walking dogs for other people, including strangers’ pets, and I’m comfortable with different personalities and energy levels. I’m active, reliable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m available throughout the week and have a pretty flexible schedule. While I have an internship on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, I still have plenty of time for pet care, walks, and check ins. I’m happy to work with your schedule and make sure your pets are well cared for! I’ve been around animals and loved them my whole life, so being around pets comes naturally to me. I’m patient and understand that not every animal is super outgoing or likes new people right away. I’ve had experience with pets that can be more stand offish or take time to warm up, and I’m good at being patient and letting them get comfortable at their own pace. I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away, and I’ll treat them like they’re my own.
“Ella has been fantastic with our two dogs! She is friendly, professional, and super responsive. She has a clear love for animals and it is such a comfort to know that our pups get to spend quality time with her while we are at work!”
“Carolyn, I am grateful for your walks with Dunkin. Now you’ve met both my sons & my “big” grand pup. I love 💕 her. She is funny, a real piece of work! Thank you so much!”
About: I have had animals my whole life and I currently have two dogs and three cats. I’ve trained one of my current dogs and one of my previous dogs, giving me experience with basic training and routines. I’ve also dog-sat for others and always make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I treat every pet like my own and pay close attention to their individual needs. I am home for the summer from college, and am able to be very flexible. I have almost all weekends free, and will work during the week as well. While home for the summer I live with a house full of pets, as well as having animals at school. I am perfectly capable of working with your animals in your own home as I am a trustworthy, responsible and reliable person with a great love for animals.
About: I have three dogs at home myself and love caring for them.

About: Hi there! My name is Natalia and I live in South Burlington my little 12 year old fur baby (pug/daschund mix). I can understand and relate to the stress and importance of finding a trustworthy care giver. I would love to be able to give the kind of care to your little one like I would expect for my own. South Burlington and Williston area would work the best for me. I would love to meet your family and spend time with your little fur baby! :) I would be available Monday through Friday after 5pm (and before 8:30am depending on situation) and any time Saturday and Sunday. Willing to be flexible! 😁 My sweet Harley boy is an older pup who has incontinence and regularly wears diapers, so we understand that special pets sometimes have special needs!
About: I’ve always had 2+ dogs since I was born and have cared for them ever since, they’re my absolute world and I’d be honored to help care for your pups too Im a full time student however out of school hours I am fully committed to playing with and loving on dogs as I normally would with my own:) In my opinion parenting a dog is just as important as a child and I’d never tell someone how to do that; so however you’d like me to care for your pets I am more than willing and able to do so!
About: I grew up on the farm and have over 40 years' experience and knowledge in caring for, training and loving all varieties of animals form the pet mouse to the horses and cows and everything in between. I am not a kennel. Your pet will be living like he's at home. I keep your normal routine such as feeding times, walks, playtimes and more. I don't book multiple dogs unless it's the same family or family friends dogs that know each other. We are a family-owned Electrical Contracting business, so I work from home and will be at your pet's beckon call for all their needs and I will love having their company and companionship. I am available days, nights weekends and holidays. My goal is for your pet and his family to be as stress free as possible, the best I can while you're away. I will keep your normal daily routine as if they were home, I am happy to do more if you desire, such as extra walks at the park, riding along in the car for errands, and more if you'd like. Medications, special needs are not a problem. Even with the more challenging ones.
About: I have had dogs my whole life from puppy to senior! I love dogs with my whole heart and can provide dogs care and loving! I am currently working part-time and living away from my pet. I love dogs and would make me so happy to take any on walks! I will keep pets on leash at all necessary times. I can build relationships with dogs and figure out what is best/ needed for them.
About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Having grown up surrounded by dogs, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their needs and genuinely love spending time with them. I also volunteer at Lucky Puppy Rescue, where I help care for dogs and ensure they are safe, comfortable, and well looked after. Over the years, neighbors, friends, and family have consistently trusted me with their pets, and I take that responsibility seriously, treating every dog as if they were my own with patience, attention, and care. Pet care fits into my routine by being something I plan around my schedule every day, even when I’m busy with school and practice. In the morning, before I leave for my first class at 8:00 a.m., I make sure my pet is fed and has fresh water. This is an important part of starting the day because it sets a routine and ensures my pet is taken care of even when I’m not home. Since my school schedule is split throughout the day (8:00–9:00, 10:00–12:00, and 2:00–3:00), I don’t always have long periods at home, but I still try to check in whenever I can. After my last class ends at 3:00, I go home briefly before practice. During that half hour, I might let my pet outside, clean up after them, or spend a few minutes giving them attention. After practice, when I get home around 5:00, I have more time to focus on pet care. This is when I usually feed my pet again, take them for a walk if needed, and spend quality time playing or relaxing with them. In the evening, I also make sure everything is set for the night, like refilling water and making sure they are comfortable. Overall, pet care is a consistent responsibility that I fit into both the small breaks in my day and my longer free time at night. Even with a busy schedule, I make sure my pet’s needs are always a priority. I care for pets in my home by creating a safe, active, and comfortable environment where they feel right at home. I have a fenced-in yard, so dogs get plenty of time outside to run and play. I also have a pup of my own who loves being around other dogs, which helps keep visiting pups entertained and social. Throughout the day, they’ll have a mix of playtime with other dogs and one-on-one attention, along with lots of cuddles so they feel cared for and not alone. Inside, I make sure every dog has a space where they feel secure. I have a crate available if needed, but there’s also plenty of room if you’d prefer to bring your own crate. I focus on keeping a routine that includes feeding, outdoor time, and attention, so each pup stays happy, comfortable, and well cared for.
About: I’ve been surrounded by pets since I was born. I grew up walking, feeding, bathing, and loving my first two dogs—a Chocolate Lab and a giant Weimaraner. Since those two, my pet family expanded to a Yellow Lab, a rescue mutt (Australian Kelpie), a Hound mix, an Australian Shepherd-Pitbull mix, a Great Dane, a Pomeranian, a three-legged rescue dog, three horses, five goats, two pigs, three mini horses, and a cat. Throughout my life, I’ve helped to take care of each and every pet that we’ve had. While it’s not always easy, I love every second of it. I am home from college for the summer (May-August), so I will be very flexible and available to help out you and your pets :) I will always make sure your fur baby is happy, healthy, and comfortable. In my care, your pet will always be my top priority. I will never take any job that I cannot 100% commit to.

“Leaving Bounce with Julia while visiting Saratoga Springs was our first experience with Rover. Julia exuded warmth, competency and friendliness in all her online and in-person communications. Our dog can be hard to read: He has incredible bursts of energy, yet sleeps a lot. He loves other dogs, but in some instances becomes fearful of them. Julia assured us she would gauge his mood and decide to crate him or send him off for some group dog play, which is what resulted (dog play). When she drove him back to our hotel, he did not want to leave her car. So, that proved that all the good things we saw in Julia came true. Thank you for taking such care of our beloved Bounce! When we returned to Saratoga, we will also return Bounce to Julia's kind care.”
“Alex and her family were wonderful!! We were a little nervous at first boarding our rescue of only 7 months. But once meeting her and seeing how much she loves animals we knew it was the perfect choice. Her home is perfect with comfy areas to relax and a huge fenced for you dog to run around. Alex is so kind that she sends updates with photos! Our dog River had the best time and highly recommended her to others!”
“Odin highly recommends Elizabeth! Thank you, Elizabeth, for a great experience for us but especially for Odin! He had the best weekend with you and your dogs. We loved the updates and pictures you sent and Odin was worn out when he came home!”
“Words can not express how thankful I was to have met John on this app. My baby is an old girl with special needs. She wears a diaper and enjoys a calm, quiet atmosphere. Thank you so much for the daily pictures and communication. I am most thankful for the confident feeling I had through my trip. Knowing my sweet girl was well cared for. Highly recommend. Thanks John”
“Leaving our Layla with Peg was so comforting. We knew when we met her that she was the right choice to watch her while we were away. Layla got lots of love and lots of exercise. Not to mention much needed play time with other dogs. Peg kept us updated on how she was doing and sent lots of photos and videos. We highly recommend Peg!”
“Jen was amazing. Took my boy on the shortest of notice and sent pictures the whole time. My boy had a health concern that wasn’t bad enough for her to call me while I was away but was worth mentioning when I picked him up which I can’t even say how much I appreciate. I’ve had bad experiences leaving him before so I get very nervous but 10/10 I’d trust Jen with my dogs any day and would go out of my way to book with her 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!”
“Rebecca took wonderful care of our 14 year old Max (Shih Tzu). She gave us plenty of updates and pictures of the fun things he was doing. Max was happy when we picked him up, and tired from his fun stay when he got home. I’d highly recommend Rebecca!!”
“Chrissy was wonderful with our dog Ronin! She took extremely good care of him. She sent us plenty of pictures. You could not ask for a more kind and caring dog sitter! Ronin clearly had a good time staying with her. I highly recommend her!”
“I'm so glad and grateful we were able to book with Samantha for 4 nights of boarding! She was flexible and accomodating in working with me through video calls and time differences as well as coordinating drop off and pick up with a family member who is taking care of my dog for a couple months while I am overseas. She was also understanding and receptive about special care requests during our initial chats and it was fantastic receiving twice daily updates during the boarding. I could tell from the belly up pictures that my dog felt safe, happy, and well taken care of! Will definitely try to book with her again should the need come up once more and give my enthusiastic recommendation to others as well!”
“We had a wonderful experience leaving our pup with Karen. She made us feel completely comfortable and most importantly Lulu was happy! We got frequent updates, Lulu got many walks and we couldn’t be happier with the care she received. Will def book again with Karen!”
“Very pleasant experience. Maegan was very patient and accommodating with my hectic travel schedule. I really appreciated the short-term notice and great, fast communication. My dog seemed to have a great time at her place, and I'm glad we visited her.”
“It was nice knowing the dogs would have a great time while we were away. They had so many other dogs to play with and so much land to run, play and sniff. Definitely going to board here again when we travel.”
“Laurie is the best!! We are doggy parents to two large dogs and they love staying with Laurie. We are comforted knowing they are having such an enjoyable time and Laurie communicates through text and photos during their stay! Them staying with her makes our getaways more enjoyable because we know they are in such good hands!”
“Kathy looked after our 1yr old Cavalier for 2 nights while we were out of town. Kathy is a knowledgeable and caring dog lover and we have already booked another stay with her.”
“We used Carolyn again and she was exceptional as always. We received regular updates on the animals and lots of photos. Our furry family was very happy and well cared for while we were away.”
About: I have worked and lived with working police k9s and pet dogs. I grew up around dogs, cats, and other animals. I foster kittens for the local animal shelter every year for last several years, so there may be some additional felines at times. I’ve delivered babies and have cared for sick animals. My last dog was a giant breed with special needs in the end, and now have a toy Mexican hairless dog, and one indoor/outdoor cat. It’s just me and the two pets so a nice quiet calm house with fenced yard and safe neighborhood with great walking paths. I really enjoy animals and will treat your pet with love and care. If I have to work that day they get whatever care they need in the AM and when I return, I go straight to them. Often I ask the neighbor to give a midday potty break to the dogs if needed! We go for a nice walk, or jog depending on the weather. Sometimes we walk to road other times through the woods. We may go for a little outting, I bring my dog whenever I can, or spend time in the yard hanging out. Couch cuddles are a must, every day for us lol. Days off I center around my pets as much as I can :) Basic necessities are a given: food, water, walking/playing, potty breaks! The cats litter gets scooped and dog poo cleaned up. If needed, medications administered. In my home the pets are family, and we are always willing to temporarily add to it - the more the merrier!
