“Samantha and her family are amazing. Honestly. My first time boarding my 3 month old puppy and they made it so easy. Communication and kindness!! Such genuine people. Thank you for everything!!”
“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.”
“Chelsea and Christopher took wonderful care of our pups Obi and Opal, we could leave them in their care and be rest assured they were safe and happy. They both have a very calm vibe which our pups need. lol. Our 1 year old Opal is definitely not chill and they didn’t make us feel bad about it which we appreciate. 😂 it was clear they loved their time and they look forward to their future booked stays with Chelsea and Christopher! Thank you both!”
“Lori worked with us and my dog even though had a difficult time while there and was a bit more challenging than I had realized he would be. Fox had grown to like her in the 5 days he was there and gave her a nice "hug" before he left.”
“Christopher was great and came through for us for a quick weekend. Communication was great before, during, and after our dog’s stay with him. At drop off, he showed us around a bit, and explained how and where he was planning on playing with our dog. We talked about his feeding schedule, and he assured me that my dog would be fine. During the weekend, I got several pics and videos of my dog playing with Christopher. Not overbearing, but enough to show me that my pup was being cared for. At pickup, Chelsea was there, as Christopher had to work. She had our dog’s belongings ready to go, and said she and Christopher really enjoyed hanging out and playing (and snuggling) with our dog. This was our first experience with Rover, and I would say that I would certainly have Christopher and Chelsea care for our dog again.”
“I came home to a happy healthy puppy. Marisa was very responsive. Never waited for more than 2 minutes for a response to my messages. I received a few pics. Highly recommend.”
“Kimberly was so kind to take Toby my 19-lb Havenese dog very last minute! I have a bad wrist fracture and was not able to take care of him properly. She took such great care of him with only hours’ notice. I will definitely use her services again!”
“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. She sends lots of updates, pictures and videos, so the parents are put at ease as well. Our anxious pup was immediately at home, and came back happy and tired from all of the play. Thank you to our new friend Kyle for spoiling our fur baby!”
“Our pup has become a bit of a regular at Maggie’s. Our dog always seems to have a great time and is well taken care of, but we also really appreciate Maggie’s communication and flexibility for each stay. She always goes above and beyond to make things easier for us. We are very happy to have found her!”
About: I’m a certified dog trainer with 30 years of experience and have helped thousands of dogs—from puppies to seniors. Your dog will never go home with worse manners after staying with me! Every pup gets one-on-one attention, enrichment, and plenty of daily playtime. I’m home the majority of the week, which means your dog gets lots of company, cuddles, and care! I’m happy to board your sweet pup anytime you need me. I’ve got a fully fenced yard and a goofy young playmate who loves making new dog friends! Your pup will enjoy tons of zoomies, sniffing, and social fun. At night, everyone snoozes safely in their crates—but don’t worry, I’m always on “midnight potty duty” for puppies and seniors who need a quick outing!
“Natthinee is an awesome sitter! She communicates daily w an update and photos. My doodle got along w hers. Many walks. Snuggles on the couch😊 I will definitely have her watch Rudy again even though she’s a 30 minute drive away👍👍”
“We don’t let anyone else watch our French bulldog. David takes her for plenty of walks, gives her lots of attention, and makes sure she gets her medication. She’s very happy with David, as are we!”
“Alyson was wonderful! She was very patient with my dogs, even when they got nervous and peed on her floor. They quickly warmed up to her and her dog, and from the photos she sent, it was obvious they were having a great time. I will definitely rebook with Alyson.”
“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.”
“Christopher and his wife did a wonderful job watching my Australian Shepherd. I appreciate the daily updates with pictures. She was well loved and cared for. Would book again.”
“My dog can be anxious and shy around new people, so I felt incredibly guilty and worried when I dropped him off at Stephanie’s home for boarding for a last minute overnight work trip. But Stephanie was fantastic and very communicative while my dog was with her. She sent frequent updates and lots of pictures of him through out his stay that ease my mind and made me feel less guilty about leaving him with a stranger. And the biggest vote of confidence were all the pictures of him cuddling with her. I will definitely use her for future trips and dog walking in general.”
“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!”
“Emer took great care of our little dog. Her house and yard are well set up for dogs. She was easy to communicate with and a pleasure to deal with. My dog came home happy and relaxed.”

“Lindsay took such good care of my two cats! I got updates with pictures every visit which is appreciated. My cats can be skittish, but warmed up to her immediately. It was a great peace of mind while away. Will book Lindsay again!”
“Bradley was the perfect pet sitter. He was communicative and responsive and treated my home with respect. He sent frequent updates and pictures of my cat. He even helped out when the cat went missing unexpectedly, offering to look for him and lending a cat carrier. I will be using Bradley again for sure and I recommend you use him for your pet needs too!”
“Merissa and Nick are the best pet sitters I have ever had, because they care and go above and beyond!! Besides the very helpful daily updates on my cat’s food, drink, litter box usage and general behavior, they sent me some of the greatest photos and videos of Hodge, many showing them playing with my very social fur baby. When I returned home after a 10-day trip, the house was immaculate and my mail and newspapers were neatly piled up on the kitchen counter. I knew that with Merissa and Nick my cat was getting the best care possible and was very happy, which gave me complete peace of mind to enjoy my vacation.”
“Alicia was very prompt, communicative, and accommodating of a last minute event on my calendar. She took great care of my cats for me while I was away, was observant, and did exactly what works best for them. She's very friendly and you can tell her love for animals is genuine. I also really appreciated the adorable pictures she took of them for me. I'd highly recommend her to anyone in need of pet care services and I'd definitely hire her again in the future.”
About: I absolutely love cats and have one of my own. I raised him since he was 3 weeks old and have since spent the last 4 years of his life cleaning litter boxes and keeping him happy and cared for. Not only do I have my own cat to keep me on my toes but I have a lot of experience with the different personalities that cats tend to have as I have fostered kittens for as long as I can remember.
“My 2 senior cats are fragile. Deb is the only person I will trust them to when I'm traveling. Deb goes above and beyond in her care. When I return, the girls, act wonderful and seem disappointed it's me walking in the door not Deb. :) Thank you, Deb, for the love and great care you provide,”
“Nina is gold. Great cat sitter. My cats were very sick and she administered their medication and cared for them twice a day for this whole holiday weekend. She's also supportive about their illness. Highly recommend Nina.”
“Ashley’s drop-in service was great! We set up a meet-and-greet ahead of time to introduce her to our dog, and for a nervous guy with a lot of quirks, he warmed to her instantly which put us at immediate ease. She provided updates on her arrival and departure times, a full report on his bathroom break, sent pics during her visit, and she is so accommodating to our ever-changing schedule. Will definitely be utilizing her for recurring visits!”
“Sydney is the best! She is extremely helpful, professional and attentive to my dog's needs. She is always on time and thorough with her visits. Couldn't ask for a better sitter!”
About: I have been dog sitting dogs since I was a teenager. I have experience with many different breeds both big and small. Since I don’t have any pets of my own right now I love being able to go meet new furry friends and play with them I have a pretty flexible work schedule. I can make my own schedule based off of the needs clients may have. Depending on when your pets need care I can adjust my schedule accordingly It is my pleasure to keep your pets company while you are away. I am happy to help out with whatever is needed. I am reliable and will keep your pets company while you are away.
“Ashleigh was great! She sent pictures and updates, and patiently put up with my unneeded chitchat. :-) I've already scheduled her for out next trip. The Rover app is so easy to use, and very well thought out.”

“Great first experience leaving my dog in their house for a day for daycare. Christopher and Chelsea both are very kind, sweet, patient and knowledgeable about caring for dogs. When I picked up, I can tell my baby is so happy, satisfied and well rested. Will definitely come back again!”
“This was my first time using Rover and, remarkably, my first time leaving my dog Maddy with someone in their house, and not my own. Lori was wonderful! She answered all my questions before the day, and answered so promptly too. Maddy and Lori's dog Rees were very compatible, even though Rees is much bigger than Maddy. When I came to pick up my dog, Lori said Maddy missed me and was a bit subdued, but that's to be expected for the first time. Maddy was perfectly fine, and happy to see me when I came to pick her up. I will be booking with Lori and Rees again. Practice makes perfect!”
About: 🐾🏡 About Me Hi! I’m a lifelong dog owner, trainer, and former kennel manager with experience caring for all breeds, ages, and personalities. My home is active and structured, with plenty of playtime, exercise, and enrichment. I currently share my home with Border Collies, Labradors, and a few mixed breeds, and we’re active in dog sports like frisbee, obedience, and dock diving. Whether your dog is social or needs their own space, I can accommodate them — as long as they are people-friendly. I strive to make dogs feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you have peace of mind. 🐶 What Your Dog Can Expect Safe, structured, and enriching days: Morning play/walks, breakfast, digest & rest breaks, afternoon activities, and evening wind-down. Large fenced backyard + indoor play area for all weather. Crate-based routine for meals, rest, and overnight for safety and comfort. Daily updates: Photos, videos, and notes so you stay connected. Personalized attention based on your dog’s personality, energy, and needs. 📍 Convenient Location Just 3 miles from Albany Airport Near I-87, I-90, and I-88 — perfect for travelers ✅ What I Provide Expansive fenced yard & indoor play space Wide collection of dog equipment (bring only collar, leash, and food) Experience with puppies, seniors, reactive dogs, and multiple breeds Knowledge of breed-specific needs, safety, and bloat prevention 📌 What I Need From You Vaccinations required: Rabies, Distemper, Bordetella Crate-trained dogs only What to bring: Collar, leash, and food (please no beds) Daycare: All daycare dogs require to ha e a m&g and a trial day before being able to book freely. Drop-Ins/House Sitting: Meet & Greet required. Keyless entries only, will not keep keys. 🗓 Drop-Off & Pick-Up Morning: 6:00–7:30 AM Evening: 6:00–7:30 PM No Saturday evenings or holiday exchanges Please specify a time to avoid overlap — residential area, so we keep things calm for neighbors and dogs 💬 Meet & Greets Recommended for all new clients Please schedule at least 2 weeks prior to your stay 📅 Routine & Peak Season Peak Season: May 1 – September 30 Structured routine: multiple outdoor sessions, playtime, meals with digestion breaks, rest periods — no free-for-all boarding ✨ Why Choose Me? I live and breathe dogs — training, sports, and overall enjoyment are my passion. Your pup will get safe, structured care, plenty of exercise, and personal attention while you get peace of mind and daily updates. We keep a very rigid structured routine. Our day starts between 6-7am, with initial let outs--group play if appropriate to get that morning energy out. Then we settle in for breakfast time, all dogs rest 30 minutes prior to meals, 30 minutes to eat, then followed by another 30-60 minutes to digest. This helps prevent bloat( while any size dog CAN bloat--most often occurs in larger/deep chested breeds, but I take no chances). We then are in and out throughout the rest of the day when dinner time commences between 5-6pm, repeating the same 30-30-30/60 routine. Last let outs and romps wrapping up around 10-11pm. I don't operate a free for all. Fully fenced in yard. Specifically zoned areas for potting and play. Daily house keeping services including vacuuming and daily crate wipe down and disinfection. Dogs are outside as much as we can be, under direct supervision weather permitting.
“Patrick and Sara helped me out greatly when I needed an emergency sitter. They were super communicative and beyond helpful, especially when Apollo got car sick right before I dropped him off. He had such a great time. I will absolutely be using them again!”
“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: 🐾 I’m absolutely obsessed with cats—and honestly, that’s the biggest reason I’m here. Rover isn’t just a side thing for me… I genuinely love spending time with cats and getting to know all their unique personalities. At home, I care for three cats of my own, so I understand everything from playtime energy to quiet, independent moods. I’m also known locally as a stray cat feeder and caretaker, and I always keep cat food in my car—because you truly never know when a hungry kitty might need help. Caring for animals isn’t something I “turn on”—it’s just part of who I am every day. While cats are my specialty, I’ve recently been spending more time around dogs as well and have become increasingly comfortable and confident with them. I’m patient, attentive, and quick to adapt to different temperaments, whether your pet is energetic, shy, or somewhere in between. When you trust me with your pet, you’re getting someone who is: ✔️ Reliable & responsive ✔️ Gentle, patient, and detail-oriented ✔️ Experienced with multiple-cat households ✔️ Truly passionate about animal care I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own—with love, respect, and close attention to their needs. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, medication, or just keeping them company, I’ve got it covered. I’m also very flexible and able to travel, so feel free to reach out with whatever you need—I’m happy to make it work!! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine. I recently bought a house here in Albany, so it’s just me and my studies now — which means I have plenty of time and flexibility to devote to caring for your cats. As a law student, my classes are only on Mondays and Wednesdays, so the rest of the week I’m fully available to spend quality time making sure your cat (or cats!) get the love, attention, and care they need. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping your cat’s routine consistent and stress-free. That means fresh food and water on schedule, a clean litter box, and plenty of playtime and affection — whether that’s cuddles, brushing, or just quiet company if your cat prefers space. I always make sure to respect your home, follow your instructions closely, and send regular updates so you know your pet is happy and safe. If I’m welcoming a cat into my own home, I create a calm, cozy environment with safe spaces for them to explore or retreat to, depending on their personality. I treat every cat as if they were my own — with patience, attentiveness, and lots of love.
“Miles loved his stay with Anna! Travel is stressful for him and she not only got him to eat but exercised so he slept for the next leg of the trip. Thanks so much for taking such good care of our pup.”
About: I’ve taken care of many pets in my life as I used to live on a farm growing up. I treat them all as if they’re my kids. I have a part time job as a nurse at a nursing home and I have two children in the home but over the ages of 15, other than that I have no young kids or other pets. I have a fenced yard with plenty of room to play! As well I have a park 2 mins from my home that I can take any pet I’m caring for.
“Mark & Sylva were great hosts for my dog when we needed a few hours of care while my son toured a nearby college. They were welcoming and kind and did a great job with her. I'd happily book again if we're in Troy in the future. Thank you!”
About: I have a very dog friendly home with a dog door accessible to a large fully fenced in yard. If your dog enjoys swimming during the summer months, my pool is dog friendly. I enjoy sending photos and videos of your pup(s) all day long. I visit the dog park for ball throwing and safe, leashed walks 2-3 times a day. At home play breaks in the fenced in yard are common practice in my house. Snuggles on the couch are a must! My yard is completely safe for dogs. I always provide fresh water and enjoy spending time with dogs: petting them, playing with them, talking to them and walking them. Dogs are the best! They all have their own personality and there is something special and charming about every dog.
“MaryEllen was all I could have asked for and more to watch my little girl Nala! She was kind, easy to work with, responsive, and thoughtful! She went above and beyond to make Nala feel at home and welcome! I will absolutely ask her to watch Nala again!”
“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!”
“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!”
“Jess is an expert on all things dogs. She is active is dog rescue and is experienced caring for dogs with a variety of special needs. She watched my senior dog with special needs and was spectacular!! I felt very comfortable and at ease during my day trip (I get very nervous leaving my dog). Thank you Jess!!”
“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!”

“Samantha is a wonderful sitter who showed a great deal of patience with my dog (who can be anxious around people he doesn't know). She worked with us and was flexible with scheduling. I highly recommend her!”
“Glenn and Diana’s care of my big dog has been such a weight off my shoulders. He has some special needs and they didn’t hesitate to help. Also so appreciative of the questions they ask and how much they care!”
About: I’ve had my own animals, both cats and dogs (mainly cats) since I was 6 years old. I’ve had to administer insulin before to my diabetic cat that has since passed. My experience with dogs are mainly of the bigger size (I had a pitbull/boxer mix and a pure bred chow chow). I’m currently working as a Direct Support Professional overnights 9pm-9am Thursday through Saturday (technically Sunday 9am). So I’m pretty open for picking up last minute gigs if needed. I would love to have a break down of your pets day to day. Typically when they are most ready to play or eat. When potty breaks need to be done around.
“My dogs LOVE Bradley. He’s been so helpful to my family and I - always showing up on time and even helping us out last minute - I cannot say enough good things about him and would highly recommend him to anyone !”
“Katharine was extremely easy to work with! She assisted in fulfilling a last minute request, and got along great with my dog! She was able to get my pup to take a walk and eat her food, which are often difficult tasks due to my dogs anxiety. Would 100% recommend Katharine to others!!”
About: I have great experience with all types of animals in all ranges of age and necessities. I have worked at a barn as well as volunteer at my local animal shelter. I also grew up fostering puppies and kittens as young as days old. I have multiple pets of my own and they are my whole world, I treat any animal with the same level of respect. I work part time but my schedule is very flexible with an enough time in advance. I am free pretty much all day on weekends and most consistently after 3 on weekdays. However my schedule does shift and I am an early riser so I can make most other times work. I currently do not offer home services in my personal house. At a clients home I will listen to whatever instructions are given and keep everything as similar as possible for overnight and drop-in visits to help keep stress levels down for your animal.
“Great communication & service. I was in a terrible predicament &;Heather was great & alleviated a lot of stress. My dog is a great judge of character & he took to Heather immediately. Highly recommend”
About: My name is Kylie and I’ve always had such a strong passion for animals. I’m currently in school to be a licensed veterinary technician. While I pursue this, I also work full time in an animal emergency clinic. I have had 2+ years of animal emergency experience, including large dogs and cats, and even reptiles like snakes! I am comfortable pilling animals and have direct access to emergency care 24/7 in case your fur babies need it❤️. I currently own 2 cats of my own and a ball python. I’ve owned large dogs my whole life including a Cane Corso & Giant Schnauzer! I currently work full time in the animal emergency clinic. My schedule is Tuesday 11a-11p - Friday 7a-7p - Saturday 1p-1a and I do pick up shifts here and there. With this being said, I can come by before and/or after my shifts. I am currently not accepting boarding as my current living situation is not feasible for more animals than I currently own. I can care for pets in your home!
“Jessica went above and beyond for Daisy! She was so patient and understanding of our shelter dog's need for slow intros and some extra support learning to walk politely on the leash. She was super communicative and took care to follow all the instructions we gave her. We recommend her highly to anyone who needs walking/petsitting services!”
“Sarah was wonderful! She was able to help us out last minute this morning after a last minute work schedule change and being new to town we didn't have a support system established yet. We are very appreciative of her support and attentiveness with our girl :)”
“Stephanie was very patient with my senior dog. She informed me about what happened each day. I am happy with my experience with Rover, and with Stephanie in particular.”
About: I have been a professional dog trainer for over two years and I hold a degree in Canine Management and Training from SUNY Cobleskill. I genuinely love working with dogs and helping them thrive in any way I can. As a dog owner myself, I know the joy that comes from seeing a pup excited for a walk—my Cavapoo, Cali, never fails to make me smile when I say the word “walk!” I enjoy walking and spending time with all types of dogs, meeting their unique personalities, and helping them feel safe, happy, and confident. I believe it’s essential to get to know each dog personally and ensure both pet and caretaker feel comfortable together. I’m flexible, patient, and hardworking, and I always strive to give every dog the love, care, and support they deserve. I am mostly free during the week and am flexible with my schedule. The best days that work for me are Sundays - Fridays. I am unable to do walks or check-ins on Saturday. Please reach out to me if you have any questions! All dogs deserve love and care. Any dog that I look after I treat them as if they were my own. I respect any request given to me by pet parents and do my absolute best to keep your dog happy while in my care. I also have a dog who is very playful and gets along with almost any dog.
“Emily is incredible! She goes above and beyond sharing photos after walks and giving plenty of exercise. My goldendoodles absolutely adored her when I was on vacation and I was so grateful that she could do mornings walks. I highly recommend Emily when she came to visit before, she was super attentive asked questions, was super knowledgeable already and knew exactly what to do! I will definitely be rebooking with Emily for any future dog needs 😊”
“Great to have such a reliable, experienced pro to address Zadie's needs. Surpassed expectations and it's reassuring to know she was able to manage an encounter with another dog smoothly to prevent a dog fight. Phew! Will be asking to return as much as possible!”
“Gabrielle was amazing and my dog just loved her! She sent pictures and kept updates with when she would be over while I was out of town. She went above and beyond! Will definitely be using her again!”
About: I have 2 dogs of my own and have taken care of friend’s and neighbor’s pets reliably for the past few years. I love all dogs, big or small, lazy or high-energy! I’m currently free for the summer, so I would love to take care of your pet on a super flexible schedule! I am available all days of the week during daylight hours. I can follow detailed instructions, play with your dogs, and crate if needed. I am happy to be flexible with any needs that your dog might need while you are away!

“Chelsea and Christopher took wonderful care of our pups Obi and Opal, we could leave them in their care and be rest assured they were safe and happy.

At pickup, Chelsea was there, as Christopher had to work. She had our dog’s belongings ready to go, and said she and Christopher really enjoyed hanging out and playing (and snuggling) with our dog. This was our first experience with Rover, and I would say that I would certainly have Christopher and Chelsea care for our dog again.”

Thank you to our new friend Kyle for spoiling our fur baby!”
“Our pup has become a bit of a regular at Maggie’s. Our dog always seems to have a great time and is well taken care of, but we also really appreciate Maggie’s communication and flexibility for each stay. She always goes above and beyond to make things easier for us. We are very happy to have found her!”

“Cache is absolutely amazing with our nervous boy, we appreciate all that she does for him while he’s there with her! He loves all the fruit he gets to snack on especially!”
“Elizabeth was amazing! and very accommodating for my last minute request. Being that it was my first time leaving my own fur babies with a sitter, I felt completely comfortable and at ease knowing they were having a good time with Elizabeth, her husband, and her pup Cooper. We will definitely be using her again and I can't recommend her enough to others!”
