“Lily spent another weekend at Julia’s house and seemed to have a great time! Plenty of updates and a happy dog when I picked her up. The other dogs and her certainly seem to have fun together”

“Super easy boarding experience! My 10 month old puppy gets a little anxious in new places and she did great with Jack. She had tons of fun playing and came back to us happy and healthy!”

“We have never left Pepperoni with anyone but family so we did a test run with Jen to prepare for our wedding this month. Everyone we would typically leave Pepperoni with will be attending the wedding so we have been stressing about what to do. Pepperoni already goes to Perfect Paws Parlor so was familiar with Jen and her one dog already, which made this really easy. Jen completely eased our minds and was great by sending updates and photos when she had Pepperoni. Pepperoni came home and passed out, I’m sure she had so much fun with Jen’s dogs. We will be booking with Jen again for our wedding and for other things! It’s great to have someone so reliable and so close to home. Thank you Jen!!”

“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!”

“Andre (John) took great care of Gus and Penny. I appreciated the pictures and updates during their stay. My sister recommended Andre and she was correct. Great care!”

“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.”

“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!”

“Gillian is a really sweet lady who seems to know how to handle and treat dogs. She helped us exactly the way we needed, quick drop off, and quick pickup. Would definitely recommend.”


“Definitely recommend Chris & Lindsey. This was my 1st time using Rover and I was nervous. They communicated with me frequently throughout the day and kept my mind at ease! If the need arises again I will absolutely book again with them”

“Maegan took my two boys on very short notice without having had them before. She eased all my concerns before drop off. Once there we got the lay of the land and the boys were off and playing in no time. They came happy and tired. Thank you!!”

“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!!”

“I've finally found the best sitter. Heidi and her family took my dog Romeo into her home for a weekend and treated him with love and respect. She sent me updates and pictures of Romeo throughout the day. There were other pets at her place that Romeo got along with very well. I can tell he made some great buddies. She even cooked rice for him(Romeo loves rice) and gave him treats! Communication was great from start to end. I think my Romeo boy misses her already. Thanks Heidi!!!”


“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!!”


“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!”

“Mary was amazing to work with! She is very accommodating, even on short notice. Our dog had a comfortable stay in her home and seemed very happy in her care! Highly recommend using Mary’s services!”

“We always choose to book with Alexandria because she does such a great job with ALL of our pets - cats, fish, shrimp, and hermit crabs. She effectively gives our senior cat his meds, too! We give her our highest recommendation!”


“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.”


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.
“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.”


“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: 20 plus years experienced caretaker. I've rescued, fostered and adopted senior pets, pregnant mamas, puppies and the like. I have experience with walks, overnights, administering meds, wound care and of course snuggles. I work a pretty flexible part time schedule of afternoon and early evening hours a few days a week that allows me to schedule visits as needed to accommodate your pets schedule. However I am instructed to do so by the owner. In my home, I have a fenced in yard, there is also a dog park in the community. I have animal crates if needed. Large and small depending upon what is needed. I also have a silly dog of my own at home as a companion.
About: I’ve been the primary care taker of my dog. I have also dog sat multiple times for 4 different dogs, three of which are in the same household. I’m currently working part-time at tacobell, and I’m still in high-school, but for the summer I am mainly working from around 930/10 to about 5/530, this will definitely change when school starts back up though! I would like to work more at other peoples houses due to my own dog being territorial.. I can take the dogs out for walks (Maybe take them on a trail if that’s alright) or I can let them into the backyard if that’s what is preferred. I will also pick up the dog’s poop (I’ll bring my own poop bags and will throw it away in the outside garbage can).

“Melissa provided pictures, videos, and summaries of her visit every day. She went above and beyond to take care of our cat, and even though we missed her, we never worried about her. She also offered to take care of plants, sweeping the litter, etc, to make our life easier upon our return. Melissa clearly loves animals and I would highly recommend her.”
About: Hi! I’m Sarah! I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs, cats, horses, cows, and other animals. I have two dogs of my own, so I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I’m reliable, responsible, and happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or just hanging out with them while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they get plenty of attention and care. I’m comfortable with animals of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I’m always happy to meet beforehand so you and your pets can get comfortable with me! I usually work Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday, but my schedule can switch around sometimes. I’m mostly available Tuesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, depending on my work schedule that week. I provide dog walking and drop-in visits in the client’s home. I’ll make sure your dog gets the exercise, attention, food, and care they need while you’re away. I’m respectful of your home and will follow any instructions you leave for your pet

About: I’ve had cats my entire life but it wasn’t until I got two of my own as an adult that I realized just how much they can mean to someone. My cats are my world and I know other cat parents feel the same. I would provide the same level of care that I want for my own babies, for yours!

About: Since the day we moved in, there have always been cats living in my house. We began with sisters Shadow and Uh-oh, then adopted Madeline from a neighbor, followed years later by strays Oreo and Marshmallow. More recently, we took in a stray named Grey, followed by three kittens Ziva, Gibbs, and Ducky - yes, they're named after NCIS - putting us at six current cats in the house. We also care for many outdoor strays which we feed and care for. I have raised multiple cats since they were just a few weeks only. I love learning each cats individual quirks and personality and making sure they get the are they need. I couldn't imagine my life without cats and I hope to always be surrounded by them.

About: I have been taking care of my personal pets and assisting family with theirs since I was about 12. I have experience mostly with cats and dogs(everything from feeding and bathing to grooming and administering medication, I don’t do nails though), but I can also take care of basic needs for birds such as feeding/water and cleaning cages. I currently do gig work so I have as much time as I need or you want to take care of your pets and make sure they get some love! Your home your rules! Just let me know how you like things and what you have in mind for the visits. I cant take pets into my own home as we are already at our 2 pet limit but I am more than happy to help figure out what works for you!

“Julia and her partner, Adam, are awesome. They have a great outdoor area for the dogs to run around all day. They were great with drop off (our dog didn't even look back) and great with pickup. Moose had a fantastic time and we will definitely be booking again!”

“Lauren was the ideal person and place to leave our pup while we day tripped saratoga. Lauren promptly kept us updated with pictures etc. and provided our pup with a safe and stimulating home away from home. Thanks Lauren!!!”

“Cowboy had a great time with Paul! He was very patient with our rescue who takes some time to get used to men but he came home to us very happy! Will definitely be using him again in the future.”

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.
“Dragana and her husband were great with Sparky. He came home happy and exhausted! They provided updates on how Sparky was and how much he ate( since he’s a picky eater). We’ve found our new sitter! :) Thank you both !”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and plenty of personal experience with watching family dogs. Beginning in 2020, I became a dog foster and have taken care of several different types of dogs while they awaited their forever home. From an Alaskan Malamute to a Chihuahua, a 3 month old puppy to an old lady and a lazy bulldog to the most active Australian Shepherd — I am experienced with all different personalities & lifestyles!

“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”

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.
“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.”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a child. I currently have a cat, Leo and an Italian Greyhound/Chihuahua mix, Stella. I treat my animals like children, because they are my babies! I have a soft spot for animals and I will treat your pets the way I would want someone to treat mine while I am away. I work from home primarily, so I can watch your pet in my home and take your dog for frequent walks throughout the day. I am also available at nights and on the weekends for drop-in visits. I live in an apartment right in Malta, which is the perfect location for dog walking. My apartment has a litter box, a crate and pet beds for smaller animals.
“Kelly provided 5-star doggie day care for our dog as we toured Saratoga Springs and attended a horse race at the Saratoga Racetrack. Besides being a convenient location to Saratoga Springs, Kelly’s house was perfectly set up for dog sitting with a clean food and water bowl. Kelly was so caring and wanted to know of any food restrictions and special care instructions during our dog’s stay. Kelly was incredibly communicative and responsive throughout the booking process as well as during our dog’s stay. She even was super helpful with tips on where to eat and where to go for our day in Saratoga Springs. We will definitely rebook with Kelly in future visits to Saratoga Springs. You can rest assure, knowing that your dog is in great care with Kelly! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

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!

I believe pets are family and deserve the best care possible. I am open to dog walking, drop in visits as well as overnights.

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: My house has been full of pets for as long as I can remember. I grew up with three cats of my own, both indoor and outdoor, as well as several family members dogs, including Cocker Spaniels and a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. I was also fortunate enough to spend time around neighborhood dogs that became a big part of my childhood. Over the years, my family has cared for many cats. We currently have six indoor cats ranging in age from nine years to six months. Every one of them was taken in as a stray when they were less than a month old, and we raised them ourselves. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have spend years helping neighbors with their dogs. I have regularly babysat, boarded, and walked dogs of various breeds, including a Goldendoodle and a Jack Russell Terrier. Being surrounded by so many different animals has taught me how to adapt my care to each pet's individual needs. Pets have always been an important part of my life, and the experience I have gained caring for them has given me a deep appreciation for the responsibility, patients, and companionship that come with animal care. I am home for college for the summer (June-August), so I have an extremely flexible schedule. I am available to help out at you and your pets convince. I have a secluded backyard along with a large, walkable neighborhood and fields and trails within walking distance. There are cats inside the house and dogs in neighboring yards. I am happy to provide your dog with its own, cat-free room if it's preferred.

“Lily spent another weekend at Julia’s house and seemed to have a great time! Plenty of updates and a happy dog when I picked her up. The other dogs and her certainly seem to have fun together”

“Super easy boarding experience! My 10 month old puppy gets a little anxious in new places and she did great with Jack. She had tons of fun playing and came back to us happy and healthy!”

“We have never left Pepperoni with anyone but family so we did a test run with Jen to prepare for our wedding this month. Everyone we would typically leave Pepperoni with will be attending the wedding so we have been stressing about what to do. Pepperoni already goes to Perfect Paws Parlor so was familiar with Jen and her one dog already, which made this really easy. Jen completely eased our minds and was great by sending updates and photos when she had Pepperoni. Pepperoni came home and passed out, I’m sure she had so much fun with Jen’s dogs. We will be booking with Jen again for our wedding and for other things! It’s great to have someone so reliable and so close to home. Thank you Jen!!”

“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!”

“Andre (John) took great care of Gus and Penny. I appreciated the pictures and updates during their stay. My sister recommended Andre and she was correct. Great care!”

“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.”

“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!”


“Definitely recommend Chris & Lindsey. This was my 1st time using Rover and I was nervous. They communicated with me frequently throughout the day and kept my mind at ease! If the need arises again I will absolutely book again with them”

“Maegan took my two boys on very short notice without having had them before. She eased all my concerns before drop off. Once there we got the lay of the land and the boys were off and playing in no time. They came happy and tired. Thank you!!”

“I went away for the first time in almost a year with not a worry in the world. I was nervous about leaving my dog for the first time, but she did great and had a great time. I highly recommend Peg and her family. Thank you so much for taking such good care of my Sadie.”

“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.”

“I've finally found the best sitter. Heidi and her family took my dog Romeo into her home for a weekend and treated him with love and respect. She sent me updates and pictures of Romeo throughout the day. There were other pets at her place that Romeo got along with very well. I can tell he made some great buddies. She even cooked rice for him(Romeo loves rice) and gave him treats! Communication was great from start to end. I think my Romeo boy misses her already. Thanks Heidi!!!”


“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!!”


“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!”


“Kyle was great with our pup! I am sure that Buddy enjoyed his stay and having such a a nice yard to play in. Kyle was quick to follow up on any questions and kept us updated during our trip.”

“Ginger was wonderful. She took our 5 month old puppy for 3 nights. She provided plenty of updates and pictures. We felt very comfortable leaving our puppy with her. I’m thankful we found her through this app.”
