“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!”
“I was nervous about boarding Mazie because she's never been away from home. She's older and has minor medical needs. I could not have been happier. Kennadi took such amazing care of my baby and sent lots of pictures. She even introduced her dogs to Mazie so she made friends! I would highly recommend her and I'll never be afraid to leave Mazie with her again. Love, love, love!!!”
“I so thankful for the wonderful care my Charlie Brown received from Alexandria and her amazing family !! The fenced in big back yard was great for CB to release some of his energy :-)”
About: I have cared for dogs of every breed for more than 40 years. I frequently provide overnights in my home and pop in visits for friends & family dogs and have decided to start offering my services to all of you. I am a huge dog lover and will treat your babies like they are my own. Rest assure that you will be worry free while your fur-baby is enjoying their best life in daycare. You will receive updates and many photos while you are away Must be house-trained and not have to wear diapers or pee pads. I understand an accident can happen especially being in a new place. Must be friendly with people and all other dogs without having any aggression Must be up to date on their shots I currently work a full time job and I’m available for boarding on Friday evenings thru Sunday evening with the possibility of boarding during the week. The same goes for drop in visits I have a big yard but it’s not fenced in. I do have a very long lead that goes from one end of the yard to the other for the dogs that cannot be outside without a leash
“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!!”
“Inge was very responsive, sent pictures of our boy every day, was reasonable in pricing and her own was very clean! She allowed us to have a stress free time away, knowing our dog was safe and cared for!”
“Mikaela was really great! She was gracious to watch our pup while we attended a wedding nearby and was extremely communicative leading up and throughout his stay! We would absolutely book with Mikaela again.”
“Our black lab, Lager stayed 3 nights and 1 day and we could not be happier. We had great communication with pictures/videos and they handled him with 2 days of monsoon rain - not easy with a lab! Both Sheri and Connie were great and we highly recommend! Lager's booked for a day next week and we are so happy we found such a great home (away from home) for him! Thank you so much.”
“A Big Shout Out to Brittney for taking care of our Finley for his first weekend away from home. We were a little nervous since our dog has some separation issues. But she kept us updated through text and photos and he looked like he had a great time with her and her cutie dog Pierre. Dogs got along well and our boy looked relaxed which in turn let us know we made the right choice when picking Brittney. We will definitely call her again for future help.. Thanks Brittney!!!”
“This was our first time boarding our dog (so we were nervous), but Alissa was fantastic! Hey lovely home was perfect! Clean, but dog-friendly, fenced in yard, pool, kids to play with our pup, lots of water bowls... She even sent pictures while we were away! I think the only bad thing is that we think our puppy wanted to stay with her!”
“Jacqueline was a wonderful sitter for Cory. She was great at communicating and scheduling. We appreciated her texts and flexibility. Next time we’re visiting upstate NY we will definitely contact her again!”
“Staying with Lorraine was an absolute blessing for my Penny! Lorraine loves dogs and it shows! Penny got lots of love and attention, and I’ve been getting daily updates, pictures, and videos from Lorraine. Cannot recommend her enough!”
“Dionna is a fantastic sitter! So glad to have found her. She has such love and care for animals. Her communication was fantastic and I appreciated all the photo & video updates while we were away.”
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
About: I grew up on a farm, which gave me hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals, including horses, pigs, rabbits, chickens, ducks, cows, and various small animals. From a young age, I’ve always had dogs and cats in my home, and animal care has been a constant part of my life. I currently work at a dog training facility, where I am continuing to advance my career as a professional dog trainer. On a daily basis, I work with dogs of many breeds, sizes, temperaments, and unique quirks, and I’m confident handling nearly all dogs. I’m experienced in the proper use of training tools such as prong and starmark collars, slip leads, and ecollars. At home, I share my life with four dogs and five cats, further reinforcing my comfort and confidence in multi-pet environments. I’m also comfortable administering medications when needed, and nail trims are available upon request for an additional fee. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. If you choose me, you can rest assured your furry family member will be in capable, caring hands I am currently only available in the evenings after 5pm through the week and all day Fri-Sun. Send me a message and we can work something out! I am flexible and can make almost anything work. I am CPR / first aid certified as well. My dogs have a routine we follow and I would love to help keep your pets in theirs while you’re away! Send me a message and let me know what you’re looking for!

“Emily was the closest Rover sitter to me in a remote location, put she was still about 20 minutes away. She stopped by AFTER a full days work, which was at least another 20 minutes in the opposite direction from me. Despite these logistics, Emily showed up consistently early evening immediately after her work day. She performed all the duties necessary during each visit, plus she performed some special handling for a package that arrived while I was away. I would not hesitate using her again, and would recommend her.”
“Kim cat sit for my 2 cats while I was on vacation. Her fees were quite reasonable. She did all I asked to take care of my kitties, and went the extra step of cleaning up after they vomited. She expressed some concern regarding this and my cats health, as it was a few days running. It was likely caused by some factors that were out of her control (e.g., eating dried out wet food that probably wasn't good anymore). One cat is prone to throwing up - she will go weeks without throwing up, and then throw up daily (sometimes multiple times a day) for a few days. Due to an injury, I returned home earlier than expected. Kim helped get a partial refund from Rover for the days that went unused. Overall, I was quite happy with Kim. I took away one star, as it appears she forgot to give them fresh water on the last day.”
“Karen was absolutely wonderful with my two cats. She stayed in my house with them for over a week during Christmas and New Years, was a great communicator, kept me updated with photos, and I felt very reassured leaving my pets with someone so responsible. Upon my return everything was tidy, the cats were well fed with extra food and water laid out, and litter boxes cleaned. It was a great experience and so wonderful having her take care of them while I was away so I could relax and enjoy my vacation worry free.”
“Colleen was great! She came a few days before to meet my (high maintenance) cat and see the space. She was super warm and nice - I had no qualms about leaving my baby in her care. She updated me a couple times of day, with pictures! My cat was healthy and happy after she left, and the house looked great - she even took out my trash! I would (and will) 100% book Colleen again!!”
About: Common courtesy and communication is paramount. **Willing to travel up to an hour away. Just because Rover says you are outside my service area it does not always mean you are. I have clients an hour North and South of me. **Necessary update as of 6/21/23** I will require current credit card info be on file at your vet or provided for me in your pet write up ONLY in case of emergency. In the event of an emergency and I could not get a hold of the human, puppies have no pockets to hold a card, the vet required me to pay. I have raised 3 separate RESCUE Rottweilers to be exceptional ambassadors of their breed. I currently do not have any pets since my big boy passed away in 2016. I hope to again one day have my own dogs. Until then I will love YOUR pet. **I DO NOT board animals at my home. Only repeat clients would MAYBE be possible for a very short amount of time.** Clients pets have included many breeds, species for days, weeks. Many Golden Retrievers, Doodles, mixes aka Heinz57s, Old English Sheep dog, lots of kitties, a chameleon, turtles, a bearded dragon, a small bird, fish, Rottweilers, a very challenging but lovable English Bulldog and Huskies one of which was very reactive. Oh and a LOT of house plants! PLEASE NOTE: I am deathly allergic to horses which I am very sad about. Any type of animal requiring LARGE amounts of hay would also be a problem i.e, goats, cows, alpacas I am sorry to say. Small rodent animals requiring hay for food or bedding has not been a big deal. My personnel dogs were very public dogs, parks, events etc. With the ever present fact in mind that as good as my animal was it is still an animal. Never purposely putting them in a situation to be loose (unless at home or a fenced park) or get into anything that could harm them. Read quite a few books/manuals by military working dog trainers in hopes of training a service oriented Rottie. Came very close to passing the Good Citizen certification but my dogs never liked the “stay” part when I had to walk away with my back turned. They just had to be next to me. So close. PLEASE NOTE: I have my preferences set to NOT to show any photos of YOUR pet publicly. I would ask permission first to share. Photos only NEVER infomation of course. My schedule allows me to be available to be in YOUR HOME, with your pets all day/night, unless noted ahead of time and of course trips to the store. I have many types of animals that insist on sleeping in bed just like they do when their people are home which in fine by me. Just take some Benadryl and snuggle on in. I try to stick closely to how the home runs normally so the pets do not have any surprises that can make them anxious. Sleep, food, walks, play time etc. I supervise dogs in their own yard fenced or not. I am very organized and like an outlined idea of their schedule to be written down for me to follow as closely as YOU would.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Johnsburg
“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!”
“Shari made our dog feel right at home! We couldnt have asked for a better caregiver for Hendrix! He met plenty of other dogs, went swimming, walking and had a great time. Shari sent us pictures of his advernures throughout the day and you could tell how he happy he was. Best dog sitter ever!!! Highly recommend!!!”
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: 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.

I’ve cared for friends and family's animals in the past. I can administer medicine, follow feeding schedules, walk, play and spend quality time with your pets while you are away. My husband and I moved from Indianapolis to New York in October of 2022. We’ve been spending most our time on home renovations and loving how peaceful our new home is.

About: Hi, I'm Lillian. My husband and I own a golden retriever, Fitz, and love to hike, bike, and explore our gorgeous surroundings! We are new in town after spending recent years in Utah and Montana. I look forward to meeting your wonderful furry friend(s)! I have owned and cared for many types animals from chickens to guinea pigs, bunnies, and cats for most of my life. Spending time outdoors and being around animals of all kinds are things that energize me and bring me joy! I take my responsibilities as a caretaker seriously while also having fun. When appropriate, I love to take the dogs I care for along on hikes. Thanks so much for considering me for your pet care needs. I'm often free on weekends, holidays, and evenings. I typically work in person during business hours, so I like to care for pets who can be left home alone for 8-9 hours on weekdays. I live with my husband and our golden retriever who loves other dogs. If you hire me for dogsitting it will be just me, though! I'm very tidy and happy to help with little things such as looking after plants and getting mail while I’m there.
