After a daycare, we had our pup with Gillian and her pups for a boarding. He absolutely loved being there. She really makes the experience feel like home, and so do her precious fur-babies. We were worry-free knowing ours was well-taken care of, and his needs for cuddles were met (more than expected)! We would definitely bring him to Gillian again. Thanks for an amazing stay!

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

We are so glad we found Marina! We decided to try Rover last minute to board our dogs before a trip and her profile immediately stuck out. She was professional, gave our dogs great care and kept us updated throughout. We were able to really enjoy our time away without having to worry about how our dogs were doing. We would use her again and again to watch them! She also gracefully dealt with our very active puppy who presents her own set of challenges! She was very knowledgeable and easy to work with. We really can’t say enough good things! Thanks again Marina!

We are so happy we chose Camilla to look after our 4 month old puppy Korra. It was obvious how much she understood the dogs she was caring for. She was so good with Korra and I felt like she got as much if not more love and attention than we give her. I love that she took her out on outings to the dog park to exercise and play.

About: With years of devoted pet care, puppy training, senior support, rescue volunteering, fostering, and animal‑care schooling, I bring heartfelt, family‑level love and patient, intuitive attention to every dog I care for. 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. Pet care is woven entirely into my daily and weekly rhythm! Caring for my three resident rescues 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. 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. To ensure total peace of mind, I treat your dog like a true member of my own family. 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.(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.)

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 can’t say enough about Jaya & her family taking care of my dog Barley like he was one of theirs. She was quick w/ responding, and her communication was thorough. Barley loved his “sleep over” playing w/ Jaya’s cute pup Biscuit in her big back yard. She made me feel like Barley was safe & would be cared for just like her own. We’ll surely be hoping she is available again for our next pet sitting need. Thank you Jaya !

Best sitter we've had from Rover so far. (We have talked to several sitters, we liked and were highly qualified). Scott was above and beyond. He had Gremlin be a lap kitty (which he isn't usually, unless he'sstressed) and gave him extra love. It was Gremlin's first time w/o his people since he lost his housemate Dany. Will definitely be our first go to from now on.

This was our first time using Rover and we count ourselves lucky to have had Nadia to take care of our two Siamese cats in our home. She was terrific in communicating how things were going each day and kept us updated (and stress-free!) with photos from her visits. She even cleaned up the occasional kitty barf and litter mess around the pan! Aside from doing all of these wonderful things to keep our pets feeling cared for in their own home, she is a lovely person to work with. We hope she'll want to work with us again!

About: Having grown up with cats and dogs, I recently spent a couple of years on a horse farm caring for horses, cows, chickens, large dogs, and barn cats. From feeding and bathing to administering medicine, I've spent years with animals. I love meeting new pets and learning about them. I look forward to making memories with these new pets and hopefully making pet parents’ day a little easier. I’m currently a senior in high school but I only have 3 classes from 10-12:30 making my schedule pretty open on weekdays. On weekends I host kids birthday parties which are usually only 2 hours and from 12-2 or 2-4 other than that I am free. When it comes to drop in visits I like to follow strictly to pet parents instructions to make sure all expectations are being met with no risk of harm to pets or property.

I have a very shy cat that has never been seen before by a sitter....that is until Amber! She was so caring and loving that the cat made an appearance, which Amber took photos of and sent me. Unbelievable. A pet-whisperer for sure. Every day she checked in twice and provided pictures of the cat, the litterbox, the food dishes. She went above and beyond collecting the mail, and she even refilled a humidifier each day because my shy cat loves watching it make bubbles at night. She was stellar in keeping everything near and tidy. I cannot recommend her enough. Every friend that has a cat in my area will hear nothing but positive reviews and recommendations. If you think she is "too expensive" keep in mind that Rover takes a huge cut of every sitters fee, leaving them with a lot of work for little money. In the end be kind and tip. Amber - if you're reading this, Talula and her parents can't thank you enough!

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. Pet care is woven entirely into my daily and weekly rhythm! Caring for my three resident rescues 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. 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. To ensure total peace of mind, I treat your dog like a true member of my own family. 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.(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.)

Marianne is absolutely wonderful. I'm very grateful to have found Marianne after going through a few different sitters. She is fast and great at communicating, reliable, spends a lot of time with my pup and takes her on so many walks, clearly cares a lot about my pup, and is incredibly kind and a dream to work with. My pup also totally adores Marianne as well. 10/10 would recommend!

About: Hi, I'm Meg and I have been caring for and working with animals almost my entire life. Growing up I would come home constantly with some sort of new animal friend asking if I could keep it. My parents always said yes of course but were very strict when it came to caring for the animal myself, so I have learned a lot over the years. I currently own a dog, two reptiles a snake and a blue tongue skink, and two parrots a Nanday Conure and a green cheek conure. What makes me different I would suppose from other sitters and walkers is I have more in-depth knowledge when it comes to dogs and other animals. I worked at PetSmart for about 6 years and learned all about nutrition, proper toys, and techniques to help dogs and owners learn. I also worked in pet care where it was my job to know proper diets and habitats for reptiles, small animals, birds and fish. I needed to know signs of illness or stress. I moved on in the company as a certified dog trainer. I worked with all kinds of breeds and all sizes. From being a dog trainer I know signs of stress and anxiety and how to help a pet dealing with that. I can help with potty training, basic commands, loose leash walking, tricks and lots of other things. I love animals and couldn't Imagine living without them so I understand what its like to have that piece of mind while away.

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.

Jessica was a fantastic sitter for my two large dogs (gsd and golden). I couldn’t be happier with the way she cared for them when I was out of town for the day. She took many photos and kept me updated throughout the day and was flexible and quick to respond. Incredibly thoughtful and responsible, I would definitely recommend Jessica if you need daycare for your pup!

I am so grateful to Kim for watching my dog for daycare. Tuna had a great time hanging out with resident pup, Bella; they ran around in the enclosed back patio and she got to hang outside on the deck which is her favorite pastime while waiting for me to pick her up after work. Kim's son took her on multiple walks each day, including first thing in the morning which gave me peace of mind and made our morning that much easier. I could tell Tuna liked spending the day there which is super important to me; we'd love to be a repeat client due to our positive experience!

About: Dogs are such wonderful “things”! I’ve owned dogs my entire life! Does your dog need exercise, baths, walks, brushing, play time…etc. Look no further! I have worked at three doggy daycares and a Veterinarian Hospital. Over the years, I have handled many dogs/cats! Let me take the stress off your hands! I got this! Book with me, enjoy your time away! I have four cats, two dogs. They are my whole world. I also have experience with Farm animals! I am unemployed, very dedicated to all of your needs!!! I’ve got the biggest heart for animals!! Simply can’t live life, without them! Let me take the stress off of your shoulders, contact me today! If interested in care at my home… I have a fenced in large backyard. My dogs are both friendly, note that the bigger one Bear, is not good with larger dogs. He doesn’t like dogs that are similar in his size. (He is about 70 pounds, German Shepard mix). Bear likes to think he is “dominant”. Dogs must be smaller than him, for me to host them in my home. Neutered / Spayed is a must, as well. A meetup must be done, prior to services, ensuring everything goes well with all dogs. All four of my cats are friendly with dogs. My cats are harmless. All of my pets are vaccinated. I am very easy to work with, I can virtually cater to any needs, especially if you want care in YOUR home! I’ll take pride in providing care for your fur babies, and being respectful of your space. Enjoy your time away, stress free!

About: Hi, I’m hoping to become your pet’s new bestie. I’m a lifelong animal lover who genuinely gets excited about wagging tails, purring greetings, dramatic cat stares, zoomies, and all the little quirks that make every pet unique. Whether you need house sitting, dog walking, cat care, or a flexible helping hand, I’m happy to adapt to your pet’s routine. Early morning walks? No problem. Midday potty breaks? Absolutely. Evening snuggles and overnight stays? Happy to report for duty. I believe pets are happiest when they feel safe, loved, and understood, so I do my best to keep their routine consistent while giving them plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and care. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own — with patience, kindness, respect, and probably a few extra compliments about how adorable they are. I’m comfortable with dogs, cats, and pets with big personalities, shy personalities, senior personalities, and “I run this house” personalities. My goal is simple: give you peace of mind while making sure your pets feel happy, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. If your pet enjoys walks, cuddles, playtime, treats, or simply having a calm and caring human nearby, we’ll probably get along great. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! I offer a flexible schedule and understand that every pet has different needs. Whether you need early morning walks, evening drop-ins, overnight house sitting, or care while you’re traveling, I’m happy to work with your routine. My goal is to keep your pet’s day as normal and stress-free as possible while you’re away. When caring for pets in your home, I treat both your home and your pets with the same respect and care I would my own. I’ll follow your instructions closely—from feeding schedules and medications to favorite walking routes, playtime, and bedtime routines. I know every pet is unique, and I’m happy to adapt to whatever helps them feel safest, happiest, and most comfortable while you’re away. Communication is important to me, so you can expect regular updates and photos for extra peace of mind.

We are a retired couple who have a. recently adopted 13-month-old dog who is very active and energetic (we're still waiting for the DNA test results!). We hire dog walkers primarily to provide exercise for our little athlete, and Julianna provided a nice, brisk walk for Pippin. I especially appreciated that she listed the mileage, not just a map, of the walk--it was more meaningful in terms of discerning how "active" a walk she got. Thank you Julianna!

First let me say... Petey and I absolutely loved Hannah from the very start... We had a very nice introductory walk before I left on vacation. Everyday she actively communicated... and every day she went above and beyond. Hannah took great care of Petey and I greatly appreciate that she did!! Even my neighbor reached out to me and told me what a great job Hannah did walking Petey. They said that they were able to see that her and Petey got along well. The fact they expressed that to me was probably a bigger compliment then I could give in this review. So yes... we loved Hannah!! We look forward to touching base with her and we look forward to asking her to look after Petey again the next time it is time to leave town. Thank you Hannah... we truly appreciate you!!

About: I've taken care of animals of all kinds since I was 10. Family friends and neighbors have relied on me to walk feed and care for their dogs. Experienced working in a local doggy day care and training. Experienced with in home dog sitting and basic home tasks. Growing up in a vet clinic when my aunt was my primary garden after school. 12Am. Monday threw 11Pm. Friday All dogs all day every day. I live in a 4 dog household as we'll as attend, assist,and teach weekly training classes. I prefer to watch dogs in their own home. I find it's easier for their comfort and well being. I follow all guidelines set for the pet by the owner and love spending time bonding with their dogs. We go for walks, play, or just spend time keeping each other company. I believe it's important to leave a home better than when I arrive by promptly cleaning any messes and keeping things tidy during my time there.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I could remember. I love them so much. Everyone calls me the dog whisperer whenever they need a helping hand with their fur babies. I do charge an additional fee for gas, due to gas prices being so high and the high intake I receive from my guests. I currently work part time but I’m available usually after 9am throughout the week. I do work weekends usually but I can be flexible with stopping in the morning and evenings times for your fur babies. I am temporarily in a transition moving right now, for the Army National Guard. I am living at Home until I receive my new orders. So I will come to you for any of your visits you need for your fur babies!

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: Grew up with cats and dogs. Always made myself available to watch friends pets. Have my own dog now. Want to spend more time with the good-est pooches and kitties. Looking for additional income to take on more pets in my own home! I work from home on my own schedule. So I’m generally open and have the ability to move other commitments, if needed. I’m excited to be taking on a few extra per tasks per day. I have a four bedroom house with securely fenced yard. Only occupied by myself and my friendly, easy-going 10yr old Labradoodle, Reddington. We have plenty of space to play or even just mellow out. I live in a quiet neighborhood with easily walkable streets for even more smells to explore.

Anna was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond and even trimmed our dogs nails for us. I love how she went the extra mile to make sure that our pup was well taken care of.

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

We are so glad we found Marina! We decided to try Rover last minute to board our dogs before a trip and her profile immediately stuck out. She was professional, gave our dogs great care and kept us updated throughout. We were able to really enjoy our time away without having to worry about how our dogs were doing. We would use her again and again to watch them! She also gracefully dealt with our very active puppy who presents her own set of challenges! She was very knowledgeable and easy to work with. We really can’t say enough good things! Thanks again Marina!

We were very happy with Mike and Amy, they took great care of our girl Luna. Luna got along well with their dog Bear, and had a great time with him. Luna felt right at home there. Mike sent plenty of updates with pictures which was nice.

We are so happy we chose Camilla to look after our 4 month old puppy Korra. It was obvious how much she understood the dogs she was caring for. She was so good with Korra and I felt like she got as much if not more love and attention than we give her. I love that she took her out on outings to the dog park to exercise and play.

Tatiana took good care of our puppy. He had walks allong other dogs, she sent us pictures and made him feel comfortable away from home. She is a great groomer also; we were happy to find our energic puppy with a clean hair cut and cutted nails.

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.

Christopher and Chelsea watched our 3 pups for just a short stay this time, but as always they made everything a breeze and took wonderful care of the dogs. We got photos and updates frequently and the dogs always have a blast and come home tired out but well taken care of.
