“Leaving our Layla with Peg was so comforting. We knew when we met her that she was the right choice to watch her while we were away. Layla got lots of love and lots of exercise. Not to mention much needed play time with other dogs. Peg kept us updated on how she was doing and sent lots of photos and videos. We highly recommend Peg!”

“We are so fortunate to have met Kyle. It is clear how much she loves dogs and goes to great lengths to be sure that they are comfortable.

Thank you to our new friend Kyle for spoiling our fur baby!”

Thanks again Ginger”
“Mellysa was amazing with our high energy puppy. She was available even though it was a last minute booking and sent pictures and follow up throughout the stay. Our puppy had so much fun and came home exhausted from all the play. Pur puppy loved her dogs and cried when she had to leave. Highly recommend for a safe and loving sitter while you are away.”
“This is our 3rd or 4th time booking with John and he never disappoints! He is always such a pleasure and was even able to help us out last minute AND over a holiday weekend! He takes such great care of our elderly dog who usually doesn’t do well in new environments. We are so thankful to have found John :)”

She has a great back yard (fenced in), with lots of great areas to walk dogs. Overall we are super pleased, will be booking with them again!”
“We used Carolyn again and she was exceptional as always. We received regular updates on the animals and lots of photos. Our furry family was very happy and well cared for while we were away.”
“Samantha and her partner were absolutely amazing. They are the best sitters I have met by far. I 10000/10 recommend. Samantha updated me throughout my dog's stay. I will definitely rebook.”
“We are so glad we found Brigid. Our dog, Roscoe, was comfortable with her right away when we had our meet-and-greet. Brigid asked good questions and took notes. She and her house are well-suited for a little dog visitor. She has a nice, fenced-in yard. Her couch is a cozy spot for napping, snuggling and looking out the window. Brigid stayed in touch with us leading up to our trip and while we were away. It was so fun for us to hear and see pictures of how Brigid and Roscoe were spending their time. I felt that they had developed a special bond and I can't wait to book Brigid again. I think Roscoe feels the same way.”

She made sure Carrot was happy and well cared for, and she kept us updated with thoughtful messages and photos that gave us total peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she truly cares about the animals she looks after. We came home to a relaxed, happy cat and a home that was better than we left it.

We are so grateful! 🐾”
“Jillian was a true wonder!! I felt completely at ease with her care for my two cats. She showered a ton caring and affection on them, and really seemed to get their complicated feline dynamics! My kitty Jojo needs asthma treatment and Jill was at ease with administering (: She navigated his moods - and dealt with catio stressors - like a pro, and with good humor, and kept in close communication with me through it all! Highly recommend- if you want someone who both enjoys and "gets" your pets!”
“Kelly took such great care of my kitties and was so thorough with each visit! She made sure to provide updates and photos the entire time. I can’t speak highly enough and will definitely be rebooking!!”
About: Cats have been a part of my life for years, both as a cat owner myself and through professional pet care. I have around 5 years of experience caring for cats and have provided drop in visits and house sitting services for a variety of personalities and needs. I understand that many cats can be a little cautious around new people, especially when their owners are away. Because of that, I always take a patient, gentle approach and give them the time and space they need to feel comfortable. Whether your cat is social and playful or prefers to keep to themselves, I’ll respect their boundaries and care for them at their own pace. My goal is to make sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away, while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I’m passionate about animals and treat every pet with the same care and attention I’d want for my own.
“Natasha is a great pet sitter!! She was wonderful with my shy cat and took excellent care of him, including getting him to take his medicine. I will gladly hire her again!”
“Jackie did a great job watching our cat! She came to our house in advance to meet our cat and get all the info she needed to make sure his needs were met while we were gone. We liked her immediately. Our cat, who is usually shy around strangers, was letting her rub his belly within 15 minutes! Jackie sent photos taken during each visit and provided updates on how he was doing. She’s extremely conscientious and we were confident our cat was getting all the attention he needed. I would highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again when we need a sitter.”
“This was our first experience using Rover. Jon showed up on time for our initial introduction meeting and helped us to better understand the process. He took fine care of our cats and kept us informed as to how they were doing and sent us pictures for each visit. We plan to hire Jon again in the near future....”
About: I have years of experience caring for cats of all ages, from playful kittens to senior companions. I understand feline behavior, ensuring your cat feels comfortable and stress-free while you're away. Whether it’s administering medications, providing specialized diets, or giving extra cuddles (only if they want them!), I tailor my care to each cat’s unique personality. Plus, I take pride in maintaining a clean and fresh litter box environment, so your kitty always has a tidy space. Your cat’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities! 🐾
About: I am a college sophomore on the pre-veterinary track. I have extensive animal experience, including, but not limited to, giving medications to special needs and elderly cats. I have worked with animals with all different temperaments and am able to work with each one at the level that they are comfortable with. I won't just watch your cat. I will make sure that they are happy and played with if they want to be! As well as, maintaining communication and providing regular updates to assure you and your family that your pets are doing great!
“This was our first time using Rover, and first time using non-family for pet sitting. Rachelle was very responsive and super easy to work with, and above all she took great care of our cats. We look forward to using her services again in the future.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Round Lake
Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 5 years old, when I got my very first dachshunds—Peanut and Sweetie. By the time I was 9, I had adopted a shelter dachshund and raised two more dachshund puppies, bringing my total to five dogs at once. I personally trained all of them, which gave me a strong foundation in understanding dog behavior, especially with independent or energetic breeds like dachshunds. Throughout middle school and my teen years, I helped neighbors by dog sitting, walking, and doing drop-in visits, often just for playtime and companionship. One of the dogs I cared for regularly was a sweet senior named Duke, who I’d take outside and spend time with while his owner was away. These experiences taught me how to adapt my care for both high-energy pups and older dogs who need a gentler, more patient approach. In addition to my pet care experience, I am also a dancer, choreographer, and educator. Through years of teaching and working with students of all ages, I’ve developed strong skills in patience, attentiveness, and understanding individual needs—qualities that naturally carry over into the way I care for animals. I also have years of experience caring for cats—both my family’s and now my own sweet cat, Tom. I understand feline behavior, how to earn their trust, and how to create a calm, safe environment where they feel comfortable while you’re away. As a stay-at-home mom to my 2-month-old baby, I’m home often and have a flexible, attentive schedule. I truly value creating a calm, safe, and loving environment—for both pets and people. Whether it’s puppies, seniors, small breeds, or shy kitties, I bring patience, love, and reliable care to every visit. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life. I genuinely love spending time with animals, and I build my schedule to be available when pets need me most—whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime. I’m flexible, dependable, and happy to accommodate different routines, including weekend or last-minute needs. Caring for pets doesn’t feel like a chore to me—it’s something I truly enjoy. I prioritize each pet’s safety and comfort above all else. In your home, I follow your routines closely to ensure your pet feels secure and stress-free. I always keep a close eye on surroundings during walks, avoiding unsafe areas or triggers. I’m familiar with handling pets with anxiety, special diets, or medication needs, and I treat every space with respect—leaving it clean and exactly how I found it. Whether I’m in your home or caring for your pet during a walk, you can count on me to show up with calm energy, attentiveness, and love.
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 😉
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.
“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!”
About: So you want a place where you dog can feel right at home!? This is it!! We have a fenced in yard. We have a little doggie door. We have chickens in the backyard, All fenced in. birds in the house, a lizard in the house. We love animals! I’m home all day long so your animal will get lots of attention!

Our pets are maintained in a clean environment. We have a fenced in yard and a little dog door so they are able to have a little freedom but are still safe. And we make sure that they have food and water as they need it.
“Sierra took great care of my elderly dog. He was so content when I picked him up that he didn’t want to go home. She kept him separated from the other dogs, but in the same room, so he could see and interact with his new friends without any risk to him physically. My little potato really enjoyed his time there and I’ll be bringing him back!”
“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!”
“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.”
“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!!!”
About: I’m new to dog sitting professionally, but caring for dogs is something I’ve done my entire life. I grew up around dogs and have hands-on experience with a variety of breeds, including breeding and raising them. This background has given me a strong understanding of dog behavior, needs, and how to handle different temperaments. I currently own a large Great Dane, so I’m very comfortable managing big, powerful dogs as well as smaller breeds. From feeding routines and exercise to recognizing signs of stress or illness, I’m confident in providing attentive, reliable care. My lifelong experience with animals allows me to create a safe, loving, and structured environment for every dog I care for. As a stay-at-home dog mom, caring for animals is already a natural part of my daily life. My schedule is centered around being home, which allows me to give pets the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. Because I’m not juggling a traditional 9–5, I’m able to provide flexible, reliable care—whether that means regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, or just being there to keep your pet company. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine, and I truly enjoy making animals feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. When pets stay in my home, they become part of a calm, loving environment alongside my own dog, who is friendly, social, and used to being around other animals. I always take the time to introduce pets slowly and safely to make sure everyone feels comfortable and gets along well. Throughout their stay, I provide constant supervision, plenty of playtime, regular potty breaks, and a consistent routine. I also pay close attention to each pet’s personality—whether they love to play or prefer a more relaxed, quiet space—and adjust accordingly. If needed, I can separate pets to give them their own space and ensure everyone feels safe. My goal is to create a home-away-from-home where your pet feels secure, happy, and well cared for while also enjoying positive social interaction.

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for all kinds of breeds, from tiny Chihuahuas to giant Newfoundlands, and have experience with puppies as young as 3 weeks old as well as senior dogs up to 14 years old. I’m comfortable with dogs of all temperaments, energy levels, and care needs. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, learning basic commands, or prefers a slower pace, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I have experience with basic training and enjoy helping reinforce good habits and routines in a positive way. Every dog has their own personality, so I like to take the time to get to know what makes them feel coming. My goal is to provide dependable care while giving pet parents peace of mind. At the end of the day, our pets are family, and I’ll treat yours like they’re part of mine. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, having pets myself, and I make it a priority to be dependable and punctual. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I do my best to maintain their normal schedule, whether that means walks, feeding times, play sessions, or drop in visits. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, making pet care something I genuinely look forward to each day. Safety is a top priority for me, especially during walks. I take the time to properly understand each pet’s behavior, triggers, and comfort level before heading out, and I stay attentive to their surroundings at all times to ensure they are secure and well managed. I like to follow key safety precautions like using properly fitted leashes and harnesses, avoiding high-traffic or overstimulating areas when needed, checking gates and doors carefully, and always keeping a secure hold on pets when entering or exiting spaces. I also focus on building trust with each pet by moving at their pace, using calm and consistent body language, and allowing them to become comfortable with me before expecting too much interaction. I pay attention to their signals and respect their boundaries, which helps create a sense of safety and reliability. Over time, this helps pets feel more at ease with me, making walks and in home care smoother and more comfortable for them.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from 4-month-old puppies to seniors up to 16 years old. I’m especially comfortable with senior dogs and have experience caring for a blind dog who needed medication and close monitoring, so I understand how important patience and attention to detail are. I grew up with a Great Dane, Chow, and Yorkie, which made me comfortable with different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I try to stick closely to each dog’s routine so they feel safe and at ease. I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule for walks and drop-ins and can be reliable with timing. I’ll also keep you updated so you know your pet is in good hands. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule for walks and drop-in visits throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m able to stay consistent with timing and adjust to your pet’s usual schedule. I live in an HOA community in a quiet, low-traffic neighborhood that’s great for calm and safe walks. For drop-in visits and walks, I prioritize safety by following all owner instructions closely and keeping pets on their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I’m mindful of leashes, doors, and surroundings at all times, and I provide consistent updates so you know how everything is going.

He takes such great care of our elderly dog who usually doesn’t do well in new environments. We are so thankful to have found John :)”
“Jack took our dog for boarding on short notice and sent us pictures periodically showing that he was having a good time. I would definitely bring him for a stay again.”
“Sheronda was great! Communicated often with us, sent us lots of great photos of our dog, and did a great job socializing him with the other dogs (making him comfortable). She has a great back yard (fenced in), with lots of great areas to walk dogs. Overall we are super pleased, will be booking with them again!”
“We used Carolyn again and she was exceptional as always. We received regular updates on the animals and lots of photos. Our furry family was very happy and well cared for while we were away.”
“Samantha and her partner were absolutely amazing. They are the best sitters I have met by far. I 10000/10 recommend. Samantha updated me throughout my dog's stay. I will definitely rebook.”
“So very thankful to have found such a kind and loving dog sitter. Gordie and Rooney loved Jillian and her kids. We came home from a long 7 hour drive to very happy and tired puppies. Our Gordie was also a huge fan of any dirt he could find so we came back to a very clean pup as well. We are so relieved to have found such a great person to love our dogs like her own while we are away”
“Brad and Mary did a fantastic job watching my shy girl, who is a COVID dog, and can’t stay with any other dogs. I’m glad to leave PomPom with Brad and Mary so that we could have a peaceful vacation without worrying about her.”
“Anna took great care of my lab Zola while I was away for a long weekend! She was super communicative and responded right away. Zola was all smiles when I picked her up! Will definitely rebook for boarding in the future :)”
“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.”
