“Mike and Amy are the best. Tonight when they dropped Buddie off, Buddie did not just fly out of the car to greet me. I had to go around to the open door and watch him wagging his tail like crazy in the back of their car and for a moment, I believe he was conflicted because he loves Mike and Amy & Bear so much that he didn't want to choose! It was sweet and made me happy that boarding him didn't seem to work out because Mike, Amy and Bear give him nonstop attention and love that no boarding place could. 💙”
“It was my first time boarding a dog, ever! They made me feel so at ease leaving my baby with them. I honestly think she didn't wanna leave. I'm so grateful for the daily updates also. I'm so happy I chose them.”
“Samantha and her partner Zachary took fabulous care of our two dogs for three days. They are both high energy young dogs, one 7 months and one 13 months old and we were worried that they were going to be a problem. They love each other, romping like crazy with each other indoors and out and Samantha and Zach had no problem dealing with them. When we went to pick them up, it was obvious that both dogs really liked their caregivers. What more can one hope for in someone taking care of their dogs? We will be using them again when we are back in the Albany area. Thank you, Samantha and Zachary! Clifford and Ann Wagner”
“Timmy, our pet, had a great experience with Brad and Mery. They treated him as if he was their dog. I would highly recommend them. I thank them for taking great care of Timmy.”
“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.”
“David was incredibly responsive, kind and easy to work with! He took on my elderly 16 year old pup within a 24 hour notice after we found out our Airbnb didn’t allow dogs :( He took great care of her and sent daily updates which we really appreciated! She felt right at home with him and he made us feel very comforted knowing she was in good hands! Will definitely rejoin with him in the future :)”
“We had a wonderful experience leaving Mellie here while we were away in Vegas. They made us feel completely comfortable, kept us updated, and most importantly Mellie came home happy and relaxed. You can tell they genuinely care about the dogs they watch and treat them like family. We would absolutely trust them with her 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!”
“Tiffany was wonderful with our two beagles. She sent us great photos and a video of them interacting with the other animals staying with her. This is our second time using Tiffany and we plan on booking with her again in the future.”
“Megan took great care of my 2 dogs while I was away and terrific to deal with. She really went out of her way to make sure they were taken care of and providing me with updates and pics throughout thier stay. She was also very accomadating when my schedule was changing as well as dealing with my one dog who is very anxious and hyper active. He was more at ease with her than I would have anticipated after meeting for the first time. I will be using her again in the near future and would definitely recommend.”
“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”
“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.”
“Jude was wonderful! Very caring and loving! Great backyard for our chocolate to run in! She sent updates and pics and videos daily which was great! I would give her 10 stars!”
“Larry took excellent care of our dog while we were away for the weekend. He was extremely professional and made sure to ask questions to ensure our dog was as comfortable as possible. We received updates during our time away on how our little guy was doing. We were extremely satisfied with our experience and will definitely keep Larry in mind for our next trip!”
“Anna was INCREDIBLE. Incredibly competent and kind, I immediately felt safe leaving Zephyr with her and her fiancé. She was flexible with our timeline and responded immediately to anything I asked. She sent updates consistently and Zephyr had a wonderful time! And when I picked her up Anna sent us home with the SWEETEST little doggy bag with a report card, actual photos of Zephyr that immediately went on the fridge, and a bone. I genuinely cannot overstate how wonderful this experience was. She thought of things I'd never consider and provided such an organized, professional and personalized experience that I'll be sure to remember. If I ever need a sitter again I will 100% be going to Anna.”
About: My wife and I have both grown up with dogs and have been around them our entire lives. We understand that every dog has its own personality and routine, and we take the time to make each pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Since I work from home full time, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day. Your pet will have plenty of companionship and won't be left alone for extended periods. I have a fully fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely run and play. I also have a friendly, energetic 1-year-old Miniature Pinscher who loves to play. We lived in a quite neighborhood in Glenville.
“I cannot say enough good things about Brigid and her care of our Keely. She loved and cared for her so well that we never had to worry at all while we were gone. She sent pictures and gave regular updates. Highly recommend! We will use Brigid again!”

“Mike was absolutely wonderful. He was prompt, professional, kind and bonded with the kitties. He was very patient with all three of my kitties, from my older one to my very shy one. The photos he sent were great! Living in a rural community makes it difficult to welcome strangers into to your home. Mike's demeanor and presence instills an immediate level of trust and comfort that makes it easy to hand over the keys to my home, allowing me to attend other important matters. I would absolutely recommend him.”
“Scott was fantastic while taking care of our cats for the weekend. He clearly has lots of experience with cats and animals of all kinds. Scott made sure to ask good questions regarding their care needs which made me feel very comfortable having him watch our cats while we were gone. I will certainly be having Scott watch them again!”
“Gillian was awesome! We asked her to come check on our cats for a couple of days and even though it was a last minute request she was very accommodating. She communicated and sent lots of pictures which is always appreciated. If you hire her, you won't be disappointed!!”
“Amy was awesome! She took great care of my pets and gave me peace of mind while I was away. She was reliable, caring, and kept me updated, which I really appreciated. I came home to happy, well-cared-for pets. I would absolutely recommend Amy to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Sarah did great with our cats…very reliable and a good cat photographer! She spent a good 30 mins each visit. Kept things tidy, even wound our grandfather clock for us. Would love to book her again.”
“This was my first Rover experience and Megan made it easy! Though we didn’t actually meet ahead of time, we chatted enough to convince me that I could go away for the weekend and not worry about a thing. I was able to enjoy myself and be present because I got Rover updates twice daily. I would recommend Megan (and Rover) to anyone and look forward to rebooking her in the future.”
“Cindy does a great job. She's very kind and thorough. And she's reliable as well as supportive. I truly appreciate her help with my kitty when I have to go away. I will definitely book her again ☺️”
“Cathy was fantastic with our kitty! She took as many pictures as she was able (sometimes our cat is recluse) and she communicated very well. I would definitely recommend her!”
“I’ve never left my kitties behind when I travel and was quite worried about it. I’m VERY pleased with the job Jack did. Although my cats are super shy and wouldn’t be social and play, Jack sent a daily pick to reassure me they were fine. I’ll definitely rebook with Jack should I need to travel again.”
About: My fiancée and I currently have 4 cats with varying personalities. I have experience from energetic cats that require play time to cats that don’t want me to know they exist to cats that want to be in your skin. We use automatic feeders but my schedule allows for me to feed a cat multiple times a day.
“Lila was wonderful with Snickers. She was very prompt and did everything I asked with his crazy senior dog behaviors. She’s sweet and loves dogs, it’s obvious with her interaction when she met my dog. It was also quite a last-minute booking, and she really helped us out that way.”
About: I have experience caring for cats of all ages, from tiny 4-week-old kittens to 11-year-old seniors. This has taught me how to adjust my care to each cat’s needs and personality! Whether they’re playful and curious or prefer a quiet, cozy corner. I’m attentive, patient, and always focused on keeping your cat safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away.
“We were so worried about leaving our new rescue alone for more than 5 hours and then we went to rover and I found Madeline 10/10 she is so caring and loving to the dogs it clearly comes natural to her she followed everything down to the last detail perfectly. Our dog used to bark for hours when we left … after she is with her my dog seems so content and happy. 1000% recommend!!!”
About: I have spent most of my life taking care of animals large and small. I have grown up with dogs, cats and also had horses since a very young age. I have experience giving meds and taking care of elderly animals. I can assure you I am a all around animal lover and I will treat your pet as my own. I also use rover myself so I know what a pet owner is looking for when someone is watching your fur baby. :) I am available for weekend care only 😊. My days are pretty open all hours during the weekend. Some evening appointments are available during the week. I am offering to go into clients homes and for dog walking. I am honest, respectful and will treat their home as my own. I can perform any tasks needed to take care of their fur babies.
About: I’m a graduating law student looking to take pup-filled study breaks while I prepare for the bar exam. I have a big cat named Perry (definitely part Maine Coon, who knows what else). I’ve gotten very used to the zoomies and the bunny kicks and the moods. I hope you’ll trust me to take care of your beloved pets while you’re away. Even shy dogs and cats tend to warm up to me quickly, and I love getting them out of their shells. I am available for longer daytime stays but not overnight stays.
About: I have cared for cats going back to my childhood and have my own currently. I have experience ranging from young cats and their wild energy to senior cats and the specialized care many of them need. Whatever you need, I can provide it.

“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!”
“Gillian and Mitch and their four pups are absolutely amazing. They were so welcoming of Biscuit, who fit right in with the pack and had a blast. Came home completely tired and ready for dinner and sleep! Gillian kept me posted if his activities throughout the day. We will definitely go back to her.”
“Jack has been great with my dog. she goes twice a week for daycare and she is always excited to get there and never wants to leave. Jack has been very flexible and professional!”
“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! 🐶”
“Definitely recommend Natthinee as a dog watcher!! My boyfriend and I left our dog Emma for the day, and she had a blast. Natthinee provided texts and video updates throughout the day. Our energetic dog came back exhausted and happy. We will definitely go back to her in the near future!”
“Luna had a great day with Brad and Mery. They’re very friendly caring folks and have a really nice house and yard to watch your favorite canine companions. We’d be happy to have her spend time with them anytime!”
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for animals, I bring reliability, patience, and genuine love for pets to every booking. While I was in the Navy, I’ve consistently sought opportunities to care for others’ animals and now that my military service is over, I can’t wait to spend even more time with some four legged creatures. I excel with medium-sized dogs and active pups, but I can accommodate most breeds. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’m living my best life as a stay at home dog mom while finishing up some schooling. I can provide daily walks and enrichment any day for however long your pup needs. My fenced in yard is perfect for play and I have extensive knowledge of trails in the area that are good for walks/runs. At this time, I am unable to accommodate staying in another dog’s home due to my own pup’s needs.
“Our pup has not done a lot of doggy day care, but she seemed to really enjoy her time with Tiffany and her dogs. Tiffany sent great pictures and updates. Which was nice for us nervous dog parents. Definitely going to be a repeat customer.”
“I'm new to rover and was very nervous about leaving my dog with someone I had never met. As soon as I met Megan for a meet and greet that nervousness melted away. Megan and her dogs greeted us outside and I could tell right away she has a heart of gold. Her animals were happy, healthy and well cared for which also put my mind at ease. I even met her child who was very sweet and kind to my dog. Megan was very flexible and accommodating to my hectic work schedule. She sent me pictures throughout the day and I could see my dog was happy and having fun with his new people and cat and dog friends. This was a great first experience using rover and I have already booked another day with Megan this week. Highly recommend!”
About: I have 15 years experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes, as well as small animals and exotics. I foster dogs for a breed specific rescue, with medical and severe behavioral issues so I’ve seen it all. (Dog and human aggression ect…) If dogs are boarding in my home they must be crate trained and/or fully dog and cat friendly. We can always work something out, message me! I do not board cats but would be happy to stop by and spend some time with them. I’m home full time right now! I may go out for a couple hours for dog walking, but other than that someone is always here. We have a spare room if they need their own space. We have lots of experience fostering and crate/ rotate. We always make sure to spend equal quality time with each dog. If I am caring for your pets at your home I will spend the night there with them.
“Marianne took amazing care of our dog. Marianne is obviously very experienced animals, was very attentive to our dog’s needs and behaviors and is extremely kind and loving to our furry friends. Highly recommend!”
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 😉
“David was able to book us within a few days notice and was very friendly and took great care of our dog. he communicated frequently and was able to work with Benders first time being at day care which I really appreciated. Would absolutely book again!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of individualized care and attention I give every dog. I don’t just “watch” pets — I truly get to know their personalities, routines, and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have experience training puppies, including basic commands, leash manners, crate training, and reinforcing positive behaviors. I’m also confident caring for senior dogs who may need a slower pace, extra patience, or mobility support. Whether your pup is high-energy and playful or calm and cuddly, I adapt to their unique temperament. I prioritize clear communication, regular photo updates, and creating a stress-free experience for both pets and owners. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and well-being always come first. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine — I intentionally structure my schedule to make sure I have dedicated, unhurried time for each dog. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, playtime, feeding schedules, or evening cuddles, I plan my days around the pets in my care so they receive consistent attention and companionship. I build flexibility into my week to accommodate different energy levels and needs, from active pups who love longer walks to seniors who prefer shorter, gentler outings. Because I prioritize reliability and routine, your dog can count on consistent care, and you can count on dependable communication and updates. Caring for pets isn’t something I squeeze in — it’s something I genuinely make space for. In My Home: When pets stay with me, I create a calm, safe, and welcoming environment that feels as close to their normal routine as possible. I follow your feeding schedules, potty routines, exercise needs, and any specific instructions you provide. Dogs receive plenty of supervised playtime, walks, mental stimulation, and affection. I’m mindful of introductions (if other pets are present), keep the space clean and secure, and make sure every dog has a comfortable area to rest and relax. In Your Home: When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their usual routine to reduce stress. I stick closely to feeding times, walks, and preferred activities. I also respect your home by keeping things tidy, bringing in mail if requested, and ensuring everything is secure before I leave. My goal is to make your absence feel as smooth and normal as possible for your pet. For both services, I prioritize safety, communication, and regular photo updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I treat every animal as if they were my own — with patience, attentiveness, and lots of love.
“First time with Tatiana and couldn’t be happier. Will definitely be a repeat customer as she provides a great experience for our Stella❤️ Very accommodating as we had last minute change in drop off times. Highly recommended!”
About: With years of devoted pet care, puppy training, senior support, rescue volunteering with fostering, and animal‑care schooling, I bring heartfelt, family‑level love and patient, intuitive attention to every dog I care for. I have the proven track record with outstanding experience in rescue advocacy. My commitment to placing non-traditional and special-needs animals into permanent, supportive homes broadened my horizons and taught me truly the meaning of unconditional. With a Proven track record in navigating complex care challenges, I practiced and followed through n with matching high-need pets with dedicated adopters, and reframing physical differences as badges of resilience. Pet care is woven into my daily rhythm — from morning check‑ins to evening walks, caring for our three rescues in my wide, fenced‑in backyard is my daily cup of sunshine! Their love fuels my purpose and inspires me to help other pet parents care for their furbabies while they handle life’s responsibilities. My home was chosen with dogs in mind. Our wide, fenced‑in backyard offers shade, space, and freedom — originally built for our first rescue who needed safety, comfort, and room to explore. With no stairs inside, senior pups move easily and confidently. Every room is pet‑friendly, and dogs are welcome on furniture to relax as part of the family. Crates are available only if your dog feels safe choosing one — never forced. Our three rescues freely roam indoors and outside, receiving gentle, attentive care, and your furbaby will be treated with the same love, respect, and family‑level comfort. (Note on Profile History: If you scroll down, you will see two negative reviews from 7 years ago regarding scheduling issues. At that time, I lacked the firm boundaries I have today. I experienced burnout, took a long hiatus, and completely rebuilt my life and business. Today, I operate with strict capacity limits and automated schedule rules to ensure a flawless, ultra-safe care environment.) Caring for my three resident pup-rescues, 3 indoor cats, as well as our 13year old male cat who is feral, is my primary passion and my full-time daily focus. Because this is my dedicated lifestyle, I provide a highly structured and dependable environment for your furbaby. **(Note on my Review History: If you scroll down, you will see two negative reviews from 7 years ago regarding scheduling issues.

Today, I operate with strict capacity limits and automated schedule rules to ensure a flawless, ultra-safe care environment.)** Run by a dedicated Mother-Daughter duo, our home daycare & boarding services grew out of a lifetime of deep compassion and rescue love. We began to call our home "Park-In-The-Yard on Lee Ave"-- Our backyard is a park, and every dog is treated like family. Our daily lives revolve around rescuing and fostering small and medium dogs. This patient & unconditional love became second nature to us. We open our hearts and our home to your furbabies, treating them exactly like members our own pack. Daycare operates Monday through Friday with a strict drop-off window between 7:30 AM and 9:30 AM, aligning perfectly with my morning routine. Our weekend boarding begins on Friday evenings as daycare wraps up and runs through Monday morning. This predictable schedule ensures that transitions are always calm, organized, and stress-free for the dogs. **(Note on my Review History: If you scroll down, you will see two negative reviews from 7 years ago regarding scheduling issues.

I enforce strict safety boundaries: I only accept small-to-medium dogs and strictly limit care to a maximum of 3 guest dogs at any time. My home features a secure, attached garage breezeway that serves as a double-gated transition zone, ensuring no dog can ever bolt near the street during drop-offs.Inside, my home is a staircase-free, pet-friendly environment where dogs are welcome to lounge on the furniture, beds, or right in my lap. Crates are entirely optional and only used if a dog seeks one out for feeling safe and secure. Our wide, securely fenced chain-link backyard is a true outdoor paradise built for comfort, safety, and freedom to experience zoomies! A custom area with a patio cover which provides adequate shade and has a dedicated cooling station, cooling mats, and a small dog pool with a water hose for fun, safe summer splashing.
“Lianna was absolutely wonderful! I could tell right away how much my 5 month old pup, Snowball, liked her. Snowball seemed so happy and relaxed when I picked her up, and Lianna was so kind as well! She was also so accommodating with a last minute scheduling conflict that I had. Absolutely would recommend!”

About: First time clients can use the promo code below for a discount on your first booking. DAWNA60239 My profile: https://www.rover.com/sit/dawna60239 I have taken care of dogs since I was in my early teens. In addition, through the years, I have also been a pet parent to a horse, guinea pigs, hermit crabs, tropical fish, goldfish, and hamsters. Family and friends routinely ask me for pet care advice since I have had pets for so many years and trained my own puppies through self teaching. I also have experience administering medications. I care for my own four dogs on a daily basis ranging in age from 3 to 17 and have raised them from puppies. We have play time and snuggle time at different times each day. There is plenty of extra time and love each day to care for your fur baby too. I have a fenced yard on just under 1/2 acre, and my four dogs love to romp and play which is part of their daily routine. They also love long walks or going for a car ride. They are all crate trained and feel that their crate is their special place, so the doors are always open for them to have their alone/rest time when they want to after play time (if they are not trying to claim a spot on the couch or in the recliner). One especially likes the couch and the others love to sleep in bed at night.
“Jasper has been with Alexis not even an hour and I have already gotten an update and a video!!! 5 stars already! I just picked our very tired happy pup. He had a great day playing with his new friend Nala. Alexis was amazing. We found our regular doggy sitter!!!”

“Gillian is a dream! She was an instant hit with our pups and meeting her prior to the day the dogs needed her care put us at ease as her warm and welcoming personality instantly confirmed for us that she would take good care of our dogs. Her availability is awesome and she was even able to help us with a very last minute request. Rest-assured, your beloved pets will be in great hands with Gillian 🩷”

About: Throughout my life I have taken care of dogs in many different capacities. Today I am currently an owner, foster parent for Petey's Legacy, and lover of all furry friends. I have experience with all ages and breeds and can provide the greatest experience a pup can ask for. I am always available for whatever your friend may need. I am available anytime, day or night to care for your pets. I know pets sometimes cannot wait to get the care they need and I am able to place them first on my list. I currently have two dogs and foster another one. At my home I have land that allows the dogs to move freely while on an extended leash. My foster dog has their own space that is separated from the other two so they can feel comfortable with a place of their own. All dogs receive equal attention and love. If I am caring for your pets at your home I am able to stay overnight if requested.

I especially loved getting pictures and updates during her visit—it gave me such peace of mind knowing my pup was happy and well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable!”

About: First time clients can use the promo code below for a discount on your first booking. DAWNA60239 My profile: https://www.rover.com/sit/dawna60239 I have taken care of dogs since I was in my early teens. In addition, through the years, I have also been a pet parent to a horse, guinea pigs, hermit crabs, tropical fish, goldfish, and hamsters. Family and friends routinely ask me for pet care advice since I have had pets for so many years and trained my own puppies through self teaching. I also have experience administering medications. I care for my own four dogs on a daily basis ranging in age from 3 to 17 and have raised them from puppies. We have play time and snuggle time at different times each day. There is plenty of extra time and love each day to care for your fur baby too. I have a fenced yard on just under 1/2 acre, and my four dogs love to romp and play which is part of their daily routine. They also love long walks or going for a car ride. They are all crate trained and feel that their crate is their special place, so the doors are always open for them to have their alone/rest time when they want to after play time (if they are not trying to claim a spot on the couch or in the recliner). One especially likes the couch and the others love to sleep in bed at night.
About: Ever since I was a child, I’ve always had a pet in my life. Over the years, I’ve cared for countless animals through dog and cat sitting, and I’ve always felt a natural connection with them. One of the experiences I’m most proud of is helping reunite three lost dogs with their families. Animals have always been a part of who I am, and caring for them has never felt like a job—it has always felt like a calling. Starting September 4, I’ll have a flexible schedule and will be available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and dog or cat sitting throughout the day. This isn’t just a side hustle for me—it’s something I’m genuinely passionate about. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve had pets since I was a child, cared for many dogs and cats over the years, and have even helped reunite three lost dogs with their families. I truly enjoy earning an animal’s trust and giving pet owners peace of mind, knowing their furry family members are in loving, dependable hands. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pets like they’re my own, I’d love the opportunity to help! One of the biggest benefits I offer is caring for your pets in the comfort of their own home. Staying in their familiar environment helps reduce stress, keeps their daily routine consistent, and allows them to feel safe and secure while you’re away. Whether it’s dog walking, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I’ll make sure your pets receive plenty of love, attention, playtime, and personalized care—just as if you were home. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your furry family members are happy, comfortable, and cared for in the place they know best.
About: I work part time and am pretty flexible with my schedule. My fiancée and I currently have 4 cats but I grew up with dogs. I love dog sitting for friends and family. My previous dog was diabetic so I have given insulin and have with experience with senior dogs. I currently work part time so I have a lot of time to play with your animals! Our cats love to cuddle and to go for walks in their stroller. I use automatic feeders for dry food and give them wet food once a day. I’ve pet sat where animals are free fed or prefer to be fed at a specific time.
About: I’m a graduating law student looking to take pup-filled study breaks while I prepare for the bar exam. I have a big cat named Perry and I love dogs. I’ve had at least one dog my entire life, and most of my family members have as well, so I have a lot of experience with many different breeds. I hope you’ll trust me to take care of your beloved pets while you’re away. Even shy dogs and cats tend to warm up to me quickly, and I love getting them out of their shells. Please note that I am unable to do walks longer than 20-30 minutes. I am available for longer daytime stays but not overnight stays. I am currently a student, so my schedule, while a little sporadic, is fairly open, especially on the weekends. I also enjoy taking walks when I can, so adding dogs to those walks can only make them better! I do not accept clients for boarding. If and when I do drop in visits, I will make sure and follow the owner’s instructions, and primarily make sure the pet feels comforted and doesn’t feel alone.

“Lianna was wonderful! I knew my fur baby was being well taken care of. She knew I was anxious leaving my baby so she sent me multiple pictures of every outing so I could see how Tessie was? She was prompt, fed Tessie and made sure she took her medicine everyday for her chronic condition. I highly recommend Lianna if you are in need of pet sitter/walker. I have already booked her again for my next out of town trip when I cannot take my baby.”
About: My name is Alexis craig, I am a 23 year old college student. I’ve had experience working with dogs for over 4 1/2 years now. I started out volunteering in the shelters , & got to work with many service dogs while being in the military. I have experience with many different breeds and sizes. I’ve learned how to deal with dogs with anxiety, aggression, and being timid. I believe dogs truly are mans best friend which is why I want to protect and love them the same way they do us. I am currently in school studying animal behavior, I find the animal mind in general fascinating. My goal is to one day open a no kill shelter where dogs have no time limit on how long they can stay and never have the fear of being neglected. While your pooch is with me they will have fun, learn new tricks , engage in activities that stimulate there mind and feel at ease in the comfort of my home or there own. I have a high energetic puppy who loves to play all day so high energetic puppies, and adult dogs are super welcomed. I currently work 3 days out of the week Sunday-Tuesday. That gives me plenty of time with your pup during the rest of the week and makes my availability very flexible Although I do not have a fenced backyard we have a gate we put up in the back when the dogs are outback to ensure there safety as well as the other dogs around the neighborhood

“Mike and Amy are the best. Tonight when they dropped Buddie off, Buddie did not just fly out of the car to greet me. I had to go around to the open door and watch him wagging his tail like crazy in the back of their car and for a moment, I believe he was conflicted because he loves Mike and Amy & Bear so much that he didn't want to choose! It was sweet and made me happy that boarding him didn't seem to work out because Mike, Amy and Bear give him nonstop attention and love that no boarding place could. 💙”
“Samantha and her partner Zachary took fabulous care of our two dogs for three days. They are both high energy young dogs, one 7 months and one 13 months old and we were worried that they were going to be a problem. They love each other, romping like crazy with each other indoors and out and Samantha and Zach had no problem dealing with them. When we went to pick them up, it was obvious that both dogs really liked their caregivers. What more can one hope for in someone taking care of their dogs? We will be using them again when we are back in the Albany area. Thank you, Samantha and Zachary! Clifford and Ann Wagner”
“Timmy, our pet, had a great experience with Brad and Mery. They treated him as if he was their dog. I would highly recommend them. I thank them for taking great care of Timmy.”
“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.”
“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!”
“Megan took great care of my 2 dogs while I was away and terrific to deal with. She really went out of her way to make sure they were taken care of and providing me with updates and pics throughout thier stay. She was also very accomadating when my schedule was changing as well as dealing with my one dog who is very anxious and hyper active. He was more at ease with her than I would have anticipated after meeting for the first time. I will be using her again in the near future and would definitely recommend.”
“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”
“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.”
“Jude was wonderful! Very caring and loving! Great backyard for our chocolate to run in! She sent updates and pics and videos daily which was great! I would give her 10 stars!”
“Larry took excellent care of our dog while we were away for the weekend. He was extremely professional and made sure to ask questions to ensure our dog was as comfortable as possible. We received updates during our time away on how our little guy was doing. We were extremely satisfied with our experience and will definitely keep Larry in mind for our next trip!”
“Anna was INCREDIBLE. Incredibly competent and kind, I immediately felt safe leaving Zephyr with her and her fiancé. She was flexible with our timeline and responded immediately to anything I asked. She sent updates consistently and Zephyr had a wonderful time! And when I picked her up Anna sent us home with the SWEETEST little doggy bag with a report card, actual photos of Zephyr that immediately went on the fridge, and a bone. I genuinely cannot overstate how wonderful this experience was. She thought of things I'd never consider and provided such an organized, professional and personalized experience that I'll be sure to remember. If I ever need a sitter again I will 100% be going to Anna.”
“Jennifer was amazing. I can’t say enough good things. She treated my pup like one of her own and I am truly grateful. Leaving and being away from your pup is an anxiety inducing experience, but Jennifer took such good care of Cadbury and was so incredible at keeping me updated that I didn’t have to worry and was able to focus on my conference instead of worrying about him. And she also kept Cadbury entertained and engaged so his mind was on whatever thing was going on at the moment which I was glad for Her dogs welcomed Cadbury to their pack which I was also incredibly appreciative of. I am so glad he has new friends that I look forward to him spending more time with them. Jennifer, her mom and their pack were amazing and so glad it worked out the way it did. I’m sure I’m missing things but they were amazing and look forward to Cadbury’s next experience there and so glad to know I have a place I can trust. Thanks Jennifer!”
“We boarded our 14 year old Stella with Peg for the first time and it could not have worked out better! Peg is very responsive and has a wonderful doggie set up to keep you fur babies safe and cared for. Highly recommend Peg. 👍🏻”
“Ginger is a fantastic human, Sheba seemed very content to cohabitate with. Ginger went above and beyond in her care for my girl. She sent texts, pictures and videos to keep me posted on how my husky was doing throughout her stay. If I go out of town again I know the exact person I will contact through Rover. Thanks again Ginger”

“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!!!”
