About: I have extensive professional and personal experience caring for cats of all ages, temperaments, and needs. I am comfortable administering oral medications, as well as injections like insulin, and following special care instruction. One of my favorite parts of cat care is grooming. There's nothing i love more than a cat relaxing in arms while I brush them.
“Kania allowed me to enjoy my week out of town without needing to worry about my cat Lux's wellbeing or comfort being left at home alone. This was my first time using Rover and Kania made receiving updates a breeze, sending pictures and videos of Lux, which helps me so much to see my baby while I was away from home! Kania is very down to earth, communicative, responsive, and so natural with Lux during our meet and greet, that I knew I would be comfortable leaving Lux in her care. I would 110% book Kania again for any cat sitting needs, any cat and owner would be so lucky to have Kania as their sitter! 😺”

“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.

Her warmth is unmatched and she brought me great comfort knowing my pup was in a safe, loving environment while I tended to family needs. Will definitely use Kenia again if I’m in the area, and highly recommend anyone in need use her too!!”

“Tate has loved the care and attention and exploring new things at the Clubhouse. Christopher and Chelsea have been absolutely fantastic and I’m so happy that Tate has a “second home” filled with love and activities to fill her days. Can’t wait to keep coming back regularly!”
“Jialin and John took great care of our Noodle while we attended a friend’s wedding in the area. We are not NY locals and the decision to bring our dog on the trip with us was somewhat last minute, so we were so lucky and grateful to find people to care for Noodle for a full day on such short notice. We received many photos and videos throughout the day which reassured us that Noodle was having fun and in great hands! If we lived in the area we would 100% book them again, and we’re honestly bummed that they can’t be our regular dog sitters due to distance. We are very satisfied with the care they provided and we highly recommend them!!”
“Mark & Sylva were great hosts for my dog when we needed a few hours of care while my son toured a nearby college. They were welcoming and kind and did a great job with her. I'd happily book again if we're in Troy in the future. Thank you!”
“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 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 😉
“Anna does a fantastic job. My dog Snowy gets along great with her and her doggos. She is super responsive and sends updates of Snowy's activities through the day. Highly recommended! 🐶”
“Katie came through for me last minute and was absolutely wonderful with my two pups! I was in Albany for a family event and scrambling to find dog care after my original plans fell through. Thankfully, Katie was available and took great care of them for the day so I could enjoy time with my family stress-free. She was patient, attentive, and especially caring with my sweet 3-legged girl. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. I’m very grateful for her help and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate dog sitter!”
About: 🐾🏡 About Me Hi! I’m a lifelong dog owner, trainer, and former kennel manager with experience caring for all breeds, ages, and personalities. My home is active and structured, with plenty of playtime, exercise, and enrichment. I currently share my home with Border Collies, Labradors, and a few mixed breeds, and we’re active in dog sports like frisbee, obedience, and dock diving. Whether your dog is social or needs their own space, I can accommodate them — as long as they are people-friendly. I strive to make dogs feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you have peace of mind. 🐶 What Your Dog Can Expect Safe, structured, and enriching days: Morning play/walks, breakfast, digest & rest breaks, afternoon activities, and evening wind-down. Large fenced backyard + indoor play area for all weather. Crate-based routine for meals, rest, and overnight for safety and comfort. Daily updates: Photos, videos, and notes so you stay connected. Personalized attention based on your dog’s personality, energy, and needs. 📍 Convenient Location Just 3 miles from Albany Airport Near I-87, I-90, and I-88 — perfect for travelers ✅ What I Provide Expansive fenced yard & indoor play space Wide collection of dog equipment (bring only collar, leash, and food) Experience with puppies, seniors, reactive dogs, and multiple breeds Knowledge of breed-specific needs, safety, and bloat prevention 📌 What I Need From You Vaccinations required: Rabies, Distemper, Bordetella Crate-trained dogs only What to bring: Collar, leash, and food (please no beds) Daycare: All daycare dogs require to ha e a m&g and a trial day before being able to book freely. Drop-Ins/House Sitting: Meet & Greet required. Keyless entries only, will not keep keys. 🗓 Drop-Off & Pick-Up Morning: 6:00–7:30 AM Evening: 6:00–7:30 PM No Saturday evenings or holiday exchanges Please specify a time to avoid overlap — residential area, so we keep things calm for neighbors and dogs 💬 Meet & Greets Recommended for all new clients Please schedule at least 2 weeks prior to your stay 📅 Routine & Peak Season Peak Season: May 1 – September 30 Structured routine: multiple outdoor sessions, playtime, meals with digestion breaks, rest periods — no free-for-all boarding ✨ Why Choose Me? I live and breathe dogs — training, sports, and overall enjoyment are my passion. Your pup will get safe, structured care, plenty of exercise, and personal attention while you get peace of mind and daily updates. We keep a very rigid structured routine. Our day starts between 6-7am, with initial let outs--group play if appropriate to get that morning energy out. Then we settle in for breakfast time, all dogs rest 30 minutes prior to meals, 30 minutes to eat, then followed by another 30-60 minutes to digest. This helps prevent bloat( while any size dog CAN bloat--most often occurs in larger/deep chested breeds, but I take no chances). We then are in and out throughout the rest of the day when dinner time commences between 5-6pm, repeating the same 30-30-30/60 routine. Last let outs and romps wrapping up around 10-11pm. I don't operate a free for all. Fully fenced in yard. Specifically zoned areas for potting and play. Daily house keeping services including vacuuming and daily crate wipe down and disinfection. Dogs are outside as much as we can be, under direct supervision weather permitting.
“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!”
“Keegan is the best 😍 he shows my dog so much love and affection. He communicates well, is trustworthy and keeps me updated with photos. He is such an amazing person and we are so grateful to have him in our lives. I trust him with all animals.”

Pet care is already a central part of my daily routine. As the owner of my own pet sitting business, I carefully organize and schedule my days around my clients' needs to ensure every pet receives reliable, consistent, and attentive care. I plan visits according to each pet's established routine, including feeding schedules, exercise, medication administration, litter box or enclosure maintenance, and companionship. Having spent years caring for and rescuing animals, I am accustomed to structuring my schedule around their well-being. My flexible routine allows me to provide dependable care while giving each pet the time, attention, and individualized support they deserve. I strive to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free while their owners are away. The safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet in my care is always my top priority. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, medical needs, and any special instructions provided by their owner. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I maintain a clean, calm, and secure environment and closely monitor pets for any changes in behavior, appetite, or health. I understand that every animal is unique and deserves individualized care, patience, and attention.

As a lifelong animal caregiver with extensive experience caring for animals, I strive to build trust with both pets and their owners by treating every animal as if they were my own.
About: I've been a lifelong cat companion and caregiver, having raised and nurtured them since I was young. Over time, I've also bonded with my cousins' and friends' dogs, learning their unique needs and quirks while helping with everything from daily care to playtime. Whether it's a playful pup or a curious cat, I genuinely enjoy keeping tails wagging and whiskers happy. Since I currently work remotely, my schedule is wide open for pet sitting and dog walking— whether it’s a midday stroll or an overnight cuddle session. With a little heads-up, I’m happy to help with house sitting, too. Caring for animals isn’t just a part of my day — it’s something I truly look forward to. In my home, I’m the go-to comfort zone for my two cats — they always come to me for cuddles, calm, and of course, their meals. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I create that same sense of safety and familiarity. My friends’ dogs naturally stick close to me, whether we’re relaxing or out for a walk, because I make sure they feel secure, heard, and happy. Whether it’s your place or mine, I treat every pet like family — with patience, gentleness, and attention to their unique needs.
About: I’ve taken care of many pets in my life as I used to live on a farm growing up. I treat them all as if they’re my kids. I have a part time job as a nurse at a nursing home and I have two children in the home but over the ages of 15, other than that I have no young kids or other pets. I have a fenced yard with plenty of room to play! As well I have a park 2 mins from my home that I can take any pet I’m caring for.
About: Hi, I am a mature and experienced pet owner. I grew up with dogs, cats, and horses, and loved my own dogs (Rottweiler, Boxers, Jack Russell and Frenchton) while raising my children. I am unfortunately not able to have my own pets due to where I live. I have traveled for work, sporting events and vacations and know the stress of finding care for my pets where they will feel loved and be well taken care of. I want to offer peace of mind to others when they cannot take their furry family members with them when traveling. I work from home so I will be able to treat you pet like my own. I will be there in the morning, evening, and throughout the day. I can bring my work supplies to you home (reliable wifi is required) to work. I am unable to care for pets in my home. When caring for your pet in your home I will follow the instructions you provide. I enjoy playing and hanging out with cats and dogs but also know not all cats and dogs are the same. Through conversation with you I will learn how best to interact with your pet to ensure there is a great experience for all. The boxers in my picture were mine. They live long spoiled lives, with lots of love and play time. The fawn with the white face was hand-signal trained and if you know boxers, you know that takes patience. They both love people of all ages and were as goofy and as lovable as their boxer reputation.
“Our dog has special medical needs so we can’t trust just anyone with her care. Rachelle made us feel comfortable right away and our dog loved her. We will definitely be using her when I go back to work in the office.”
About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs through pet sitting, dog walking, and working at a dog daycare. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, and I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I’ve helped with feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and giving lots of attention and affection. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every dog like my own. I’m currently a college student, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care, especially during the summer. Since I’m not working another job right now, I’m available for walks, drop-ins, pet sitting, and giving pets lots of attention throughout the day. I’m reliable, responsive, and able to work around your pet’s routine and needs. I have two of my own dogs at home and i give my clients pets the same warm and gentle care that i give my own.
“This was my first experience entrusting my puppy with a dog walker, and Lydia exceeded my expectations. She’s very communicative, open to my requests, and took great care of my little girl. Lydia also takes the cutest pictures! I’d recommend her, and I’ll be a repeat client for sure.”

I can accommodate occasional before work visits or after work visits. I am most available on weekends. If I have advanced notice, I will be willing to take a day off to accommodate if possible. I treat them with the respect, kindness, and love they deserve. I follow the directions of what the pet owner asks of me. My cats are spoiled rotten and I will spoil your pets too if that is what you want.
About: Aside from growing up with dogs and cats since birth, I have 5 years of experience dog walking and sitting on another platform in different cities throughout the country! I specialize in high energy dogs, fast walkers, and dogs that pull. In addition, I am skilled in using different harnesses and handling dogs at any size. What sets me apart from other sitters and walkers is my punctuality, a perfect star rating in past dog walking/sitting services, and being regarded as “Extra Caring” from those same dogs’ pet parents. I promise to exercise that same care in ensuring your dog is safe, happy, and content with my company so you won’t have to worry. I can’t wait to meet and spend time with your furry family! I’m currently in between training for my full time job and am available for sitting or walking your pet 7 days a week until 4/24! I have the time to devote my full attention to your pet while you’re away and can provide any necessary feedings, medication, etc whenever you can’t.

“What a lovely guy! I was looking for a new doggie daycare that had boarding options and came across Awoo. Did a test run for boarding to make sure all the pooches got along and it went perfectly. Awoo clearly loves the animals in his care. Great set up and huge, secure yard space. Highly, highly recommend. We will definitely be regulars there.”
“Kevinh was a phenomenal dog sitter. He was available last minute to watch our small dog. He took Kona on several long walks, send many pictures and regular updates. Great communication. Kona was extremely comfy and cared for ! I would 100% recommend Kevinh!”
“I can't say enough good things about Richelle! Summer, my pup loves her and was very comfortable with Richelle. I received regular updates and photos, which put my mind at ease while I was away. It is very clear that Richelle truly loves dogs and goes above and beyond to make sure they're comfortable and happy. I came home to a relaxed and well-cared-for pup. I highly recommend Richelle to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter!”
“Mikkal’s place was perfect for our energetic pup. She had plenty of space to play and came home happy and tired out. Mikkal was very responsive and gave frequent updates. We will definitely be booking with him again in the future!”

“Lori was an absolutely perfect sitter for our pup, Piper. She was very responsive to any contact and very accommodating. Her place is a wonderful environment for dogs and she has a genuine affection for them which shows through when you meet her. Piper was clean and happy when we picked her up. If we head out of town again, Lori is definitely our go-to sitter!”
“Absolutely thrilled with Cashe's dog bordering services! Professional, friendly, and incredibly attentive to my pet's needs. Cashe was highly responsive to my texts, making the whole experience seamless. My Opal seemed happy and I couldn't have been more at ease knowing she was in such caring hands. Highly recommended!”
“Our dog Dax literally danced in the back seat of the car when we pulled onto Kristine and Robert’s street! Dax is always excited to see them and his buddy Finn, and we are always assured he is in the best hands.”
“Ophelia's stay with Maggie was terrific! Ophelia is our pandemic pup who just turned a year old in July and she has NEVER been alone (or away from us) for more than an hour or two. We were very nervous to leave her, especially since we were going to be away for 2 weeks. I chose Maggie on Rover based on the number of great reviews she had as well as the number of repeat customers she had. Ophelia is a Cavapoo (11 pounds) and I was concerned as there were a number of dogs staying with Maggie and many of her customers seemed to be larger dogs. But Maggie was great! She regularly sent us photos and updates which helped to alleviate my fears. I will admit that the first day, Ophelia looked terrified in the photo she sent, and Maggie admitted that Ophelia was understandably nervous, but Maggie assured us that Ophelia would adjust. Maggie spent extra alone time with Ophelia to help her get acclimated and within a day or two Ophelia was running with the pack! To help ourselves feel a little better about leaving Ophelia for so long, we referred to her stay with Maggie as "sleepaway camp" - and by the time we picked her up, I think it was a fair summary of her stay. And as a bonus, Ophelia had a "spa day" the day she was picked up - they bathed her and trimmed her nails. This was a very nice touch. We will definitely recommend and use Maggie again!”
“Jen is amazing! She took such good care of our dog, sent updates with pictures, made sure our dog settled in with her dogs and was really sweet. I can’t wait to have our dog stay with her again!”
“Brad and Mery were wonderful with our pup, Lucy. From the moment she met Brad, they were fast friends. Lucy was very comfortable during her stay and was well taken care of. We also appreciated the updates we received while we were away. We are lucky to have found true dog lovers who treated Lucy so kindly. She will be back!”
“Ginger took excellent care of Millie during our vacation. I was very nervous as this was her first time away from home. We were looking for someone who would love Millie as much as we do, Ginger is that perfect person! She is kind and loving and treated Millie like her own. We had a meet & greet with Ginger and Ranger (Ginger's sweet dog) prior to our boarding. This helped put my mind at ease that our pup would be well cared for. During the boarding Ginger provided me with daily updates and pictures. Millie was very happy during her stay and well cared for. I will definitely be using Ginger again in the future, she is just wonderful.”
“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!”
