“Carrie B. and her family completely and thoroughly took care of and loved our pups! You could tell because when Bruno and Boone, came home, they were so loving and happy. From walks, pats, playtime, feeding, and treat time, Carrie did it all, as seen from the pictures and text messages. We will definitely be contacting her for any future pet sitting needs.”
“Julia and her finance were great! They answered all of my questions, and had a meet and greet a few days before scheduled drop off and gave kodi allllll the treats so he was comfortable! Kodi has only been boarded once before and I was so nervous! But Kodi did AMAZING! He had so much fun with his other pup friends & Julia and came home the happiest dog!! I will def be booking again and telling all our dog friends!”
“I was nervous about boarding Mazie because she's never been away from home. She's older and has minor medical needs. I could not have been happier. Kennadi took such amazing care of my baby and sent lots of pictures. She even introduced her dogs to Mazie so she made friends! I would highly recommend her and I'll never be afraid to leave Mazie with her again. Love, love, love!!!”
About: I have cared for dogs of every breed for more than 40 years. I frequently provide overnights in my home and pop in visits for friends & family dogs and have decided to start offering my services to all of you. I am a huge dog lover and will treat your babies like they are my own. Rest assure that you will be worry free while your fur-baby is enjoying their best life in daycare. You will receive updates and many photos while you are away Must be house-trained and not have to wear diapers or pee pads. I understand an accident can happen especially being in a new place. Must be friendly with people and all other dogs without having any aggression Must be up to date on their shots I currently work a full time job and I’m available for boarding on Friday evenings thru Sunday evening with the possibility of boarding during the week. The same goes for drop in visits I have a big yard but it’s not fenced in. I do have a very long lead that goes from one end of the yard to the other for the dogs that cannot be outside without a leash
“Our black lab, Lager stayed 3 nights and 1 day and we could not be happier. We had great communication with pictures/videos and they handled him with 2 days of monsoon rain - not easy with a lab! Both Sheri and Connie were great and we highly recommend! Lager's booked for a day next week and we are so happy we found such a great home (away from home) for him! Thank you so much.”
“Mikaela was really great! She was gracious to watch our pup while we attended a wedding nearby and was extremely communicative leading up and throughout his stay! We would absolutely book with Mikaela again.”
“Jacqueline was super confident about watching Beaumont and clearly had experience with dogs. She offered flexibility with our days/timing due to weather (didn’t want to subject the dog to walking town in the pouring rain!). Overall great experience, would use Jacqueline again!”
“Alex and her family took such great care of my Harley who has a lot of separation anxiety. Plenty of update pics to ease the mind! Will definitely be continuing to put Harley in their care for the future. Thank you!!”
“Mary is the perfect Rover for us. We left Corby, our yorkie-mix with Mary and never worried once. We knew she missed her two little dogs and would spoil Corby. He had a great time in her fenced in yard and made himself right at home on the sofa and checking out the activity outside. A quiet country setting Corby will be visiting every time we go away. She sent us picture updates and notes.”
“We needed a quick overnight on a cross country trip. Our two goldens who just turned 2 we’re happy and loved with Hannah. We will be checking in with her next time we’re in the area for sure!”
“Inge was very responsive, sent pictures of our boy every day, was reasonable in pricing and her own was very clean! She allowed us to have a stress free time away, knowing our dog was safe and cared for!”
“Staying with Lorraine was an absolute blessing for my Penny! Lorraine loves dogs and it shows! Penny got lots of love and attention, and I’ve been getting daily updates, pictures, and videos from Lorraine. Cannot recommend her enough!”
“A Big Shout Out to Brittney for taking care of our Finley for his first weekend away from home. We were a little nervous since our dog has some separation issues. But she kept us updated through text and photos and he looked like he had a great time with her and her cutie dog Pierre. Dogs got along well and our boy looked relaxed which in turn let us know we made the right choice when picking Brittney. We will definitely call her again for future help.. Thanks Brittney!!!”
“Kelly was amazing with our puppy! We loved all of pictures and updates throughout the day. Kelly took Avery on a bunch of walks, trips to the park, and gave her loads of attention and loving to keep her happy and comfortable! We look forward to having Kelly take care of our pup again in the future!”
“Definitely recommend Chris & Lindsey. This was my 1st time using Rover and I was nervous. They communicated with me frequently throughout the day and kept my mind at ease! If the need arises again I will absolutely book again with them”
“My bluetick coonhound Perci stayed with Andrea while I was with friends for the week at lake George. Unfortunately there were no dogs allowed. Perci loved Andrea. I knew he was in good hands when I took him out for a day hike to Buck Mountain and Andrea came to get him at our rental. He greeted her as he greets people he loves. He jumped on her and then happily into her car. He didn’t even turn around to me to say goodbye.”
About: Not only have I had pets ever since I was little but I have been taking care of them. Friends and family have come to me time and time again to board, walk, bathe or just give their dog some fun for a couple hours! Growing up we raised golden puppies so I have lots of experience with puppies and their needs. I used to work at a dog grooming shop, so handling any type of personality is no problem for me. I love getting outside with any furry friend for some fun as well! I’m currently working part-time so my schedule is pretty malleable to help out with pets. Weekends vary depending on the time of year. Happy to work it out at booking. I live in a house and am around to take your pet outside for multiple walks throughout the day. I can also crate them if need be. I do have a kitty so animals need to be able to get along with a cat.

“Carrie was dependable and gracious in accommodating our request during our time away. She will certainly be our first choice of pet sitters the next time we require such services again.”
“Emily was the closest Rover sitter to me in a remote location, put she was still about 20 minutes away. She stopped by AFTER a full days work, which was at least another 20 minutes in the opposite direction from me. Despite these logistics, Emily showed up consistently early evening immediately after her work day. She performed all the duties necessary during each visit, plus she performed some special handling for a package that arrived while I was away. I would not hesitate using her again, and would recommend her.”
“Jaimi dropped in with little notice to take care of our dog. She stayed longer than necessary and gave Colden lots of love. I would definitely recommend and will request her again.”
“Colleen was great! She came a few days before to meet my (high maintenance) cat and see the space. She was super warm and nice - I had no qualms about leaving my baby in her care. She updated me a couple times of day, with pictures! My cat was healthy and happy after she left, and the house looked great - she even took out my trash! I would (and will) 100% book Colleen again!!”
About: Common courtesy and communication is paramount. **Willing to travel up to an hour away. Just because Rover says you are outside my service area it does not always mean you are. I have clients an hour North and South of me. **Necessary update as of 6/21/23** I will require current credit card info be on file at your vet or provided for me in your pet write up ONLY in case of emergency. In the event of an emergency and I could not get a hold of the human, puppies have no pockets to hold a card, the vet required me to pay. I have raised 3 separate RESCUE Rottweilers to be exceptional ambassadors of their breed. I currently do not have any pets since my big boy passed away in 2016. I hope to again one day have my own dogs. Until then I will love YOUR pet. **I DO NOT board animals at my home. Only repeat clients would MAYBE be possible for a very short amount of time.** Clients pets have included many breeds, species for days, weeks. Many Golden Retrievers, Doodles, mixes aka Heinz57s, Old English Sheep dog, lots of kitties, a chameleon, turtles, a bearded dragon, a small bird, fish, Rottweilers, a very challenging but lovable English Bulldog and Huskies one of which was very reactive. Oh and a LOT of house plants! PLEASE NOTE: I am deathly allergic to horses which I am very sad about. Any type of animal requiring LARGE amounts of hay would also be a problem i.e, goats, cows, alpacas I am sorry to say. Small rodent animals requiring hay for food or bedding has not been a big deal. My personnel dogs were very public dogs, parks, events etc. With the ever present fact in mind that as good as my animal was it is still an animal. Never purposely putting them in a situation to be loose (unless at home or a fenced park) or get into anything that could harm them. Read quite a few books/manuals by military working dog trainers in hopes of training a service oriented Rottie. Came very close to passing the Good Citizen certification but my dogs never liked the “stay” part when I had to walk away with my back turned. They just had to be next to me. So close. PLEASE NOTE: I have my preferences set to NOT to show any photos of YOUR pet publicly. I would ask permission first to share. Photos only NEVER infomation of course. My schedule allows me to be available to be in YOUR HOME, with your pets all day/night, unless noted ahead of time and of course trips to the store. I have many types of animals that insist on sleeping in bed just like they do when their people are home which in fine by me. Just take some Benadryl and snuggle on in. I try to stick closely to how the home runs normally so the pets do not have any surprises that can make them anxious. Sleep, food, walks, play time etc. I supervise dogs in their own yard fenced or not. I am very organized and like an outlined idea of their schedule to be written down for me to follow as closely as YOU would.

“Milo had a great time with Julia and Adam. We adopted Milo a few months ago and this was his first time away from us (he has separation anxiety). Julia and Adam were very reassuring and were very caring with Milo who is still skittish with strangers. He was wagging his tail and happy to see them on day 2. We are thrilled to have folks so caring to watch him when we can’t.”
About: I have been a dog owners for 15 years. My two beautiful shitzus have since gone to the rainbow bridge. I miss those wagging tails and long walks. I would love to share my time and love with your pet. I know how difficult it is to find a sitter and be comfortable while your apart from your fur babies. I have recently retired and home all day. I live in Greenfield Center on 8 private acres nestled in the woods with a large fenced in backyard . I am retired and home all day , I mostly garden and work around the house. Pets would be an added pleasure to my home I have a fenced in backyard. I live in the country at the end of a cul-de-sac my house is one level which makes it easy for little ones and elderly pets.
“Lorraine was amazing! She was able to accommodate watching our Gracie girl last minute. Gracie is a small chihuahua and Lorraine was very aware of keeping her safe from large birds and other dogs which gave us lots of reassurance. Gracie was immediately comfortable in Lorraine’s presence. She took Gracie on a long walk and was very communicative. We are so grateful that Gracie had an amazing day!”
“Andrea was the best with our pups Loki and Rocky. Can’t thank her enough for her kindness from the get go she was so accommodating and understanding of our pups needs. Very communicative and actively kept me updated throughout the day. Definitely will ask Andrea to take care of our dogs in the future. Thank you!”
“Cowboy had a great time with Paul! He was very patient with our rescue who takes some time to get used to men but he came home to us very happy! Will definitely be using him again in the future.”
“Dragana and her husband were great with Sparky. He came home happy and exhausted! They provided updates on how Sparky was and how much he ate( since he’s a picky eater). We’ve found our new sitter! :) Thank you both !”
About: Hi! I’m Ella! My passion is anything animals, and it always has been! I frequently volunteer and work with local shelters and rescues, I also have worked as veterinary assistant for 2 years so I have a lot of experience with administering medications and emergencies! I currently have 3 dogs of my own, all are under 35 pounds but get along nicely with other pets. If your pet is staying at my home and really doesn’t like other pets, I could definitely accommodate keeping them separated! I treat my dogs and others as my babies, I’m always letting them out whenever necessary, and making sure to administer any medication properly and on time, I let my personal pets on furniture and beds, but understand if you have rules regarding that and I will be sure to follow those. I have boarded friends dogs at my home before for the past two years, and have cared for both dogs and cats in others homes. I live farther off the road on 31 acres, we have a super large yard, and lots of wooded trails! If I am staying in your home overnights I will need to currently bring along my little senior dog, as he requires medication and supervision from me. He is very well behaved, and is mostly just in my arms being carried the whole time. I’m very flexible, so if you have any questions at all, be sure to reach out to me! I’m currently home full time, so your furbaby will never be left alone and have supervision 24/7! Also, if your pet has a schedule that they’re used, please do let me know so I can continue that! I prefer to take pups out on a leash as my yard is not fenced, however if you feel that your pup would do okay off leash, I can let them off for periods of time. I of course will always be right there with them and supervising! I also have a very large home, so there is plenty of room to play inside as well!
“Kelly provided 5-star doggie day care for our dog as we toured Saratoga Springs and attended a horse race at the Saratoga Racetrack. Besides being a convenient location to Saratoga Springs, Kelly’s house was perfectly set up for dog sitting with a clean food and water bowl. Kelly was so caring and wanted to know of any food restrictions and special care instructions during our dog’s stay. Kelly was incredibly communicative and responsive throughout the booking process as well as during our dog’s stay. She even was super helpful with tips on where to eat and where to go for our day in Saratoga Springs. We will definitely rebook with Kelly in future visits to Saratoga Springs. You can rest assure, knowing that your dog is in great care with Kelly! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

About: I grew up on a farm, which gave me hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals, including horses, pigs, rabbits, chickens, ducks, cows, and various small animals. From a young age, I’ve always had dogs and cats in my home, and animal care has been a constant part of my life. I currently work at a dog training facility, where I am continuing to advance my career as a professional dog trainer. On a daily basis, I work with dogs of many breeds, sizes, temperaments, and unique quirks, and I’m confident handling nearly all dogs. I’m experienced in the proper use of training tools such as prong and starmark collars, slip leads, and ecollars. At home, I share my life with four dogs and five cats, further reinforcing my comfort and confidence in multi-pet environments. I’m also comfortable administering medications when needed, and nail trims are available upon request for an additional fee. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. If you choose me, you can rest assured your furry family member will be in capable, caring hands I am currently only available in the evenings after 5pm through the week and all day Fri-Sun. Send me a message and we can work something out! I am flexible and can make almost anything work. I am CPR / first aid certified as well. My dogs have a routine we follow and I would love to help keep your pets in theirs while you’re away! Send me a message and let me know what you’re looking for!
About: I love all animals!!! I really enjoy coming to your house and playing with your precious babies. I have cared for a variety of animals including dogs, cats, hamsters, rabbits, birds, turtles, and yes even snakes. I’ve even experienced breeding and nurturing 11 golden retrievers (3 adults and 8 puppies) at one time. I will come to your house to LOVE, feed, water, play, brush, walk, talk to, and even car rides with your beautiful pets. I’ve also been known to mop, water your plants, retrieve your mail, and take your garbage to the street. On numerous occasions, I’ve taken on jobs in Massachusetts and Vermont as mini vacations! I have a bubbly and friendly personality that animals respond well too! Reasonable rates, flexible hours, and many satisfied customers! I am retired from the county, which allows me to provide full time care to all my fury friends! I travel distances to watch your babies and occasionally welcome your pet to stay at my house. My goal is to watch pups in their own environment. It’s always difficult when Mom and Dad go away, but they are definitely less stressed if they get to stay home. This way they can feel safe and comfortable in their own surroundings
