“We tasked Larry with a last minute booking for our two kittens. He did amazing with them and followed all instructions. He was very respectful of our apartment as well. Will definitely book again!”


“Mary-Kate did a fantastic job! I have two older cats that need to get medicine every day and she made sure they were both taken care of. I also have a super shy kitten who normally hides from strangers, but he came out to see her when she visited. It was a huge relief to find someone who did such an amazing job and was so great with all of my cats. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a cat sitter.”


“Nicole helped us out with an unexpected last minute trip and took great care of our boy. She went above and beyond in some awful weather too! 100% would recommend her anytime.”


“We absolutely love Lynn! You can tell she loves what she does and made Denver feel safe/comfortable in no time. She is extremely attentive, A++ from Denver and I. We will most certainly be reaching out to her again!”


“Karina was great! She's a good communicator and was patient when our cat was shy. She sent lots of photos and asked good questions. Will definitely ask her to catsit for us again.”


“We are so grateful to have found Stephanie! She is conscientious and reliable. She is great with our two high energy springers and we definitely plan to use her again.”


About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life. I’d had a wonderful dog for the past 12 years, who recently passed away, and so I found myself with some free time on my hands and a strong desire to scratch someone behind the ear and have company on my long walks outside. I have experience with both young and senior dogs, big and small. Please let me know what your pet needs and I will try to work with you to best meet their needs. ***Please note that at this time I am unable to accept pit bull-type breeds and bully mixes due to policy restrictions I work full time, but when I’m free I will gladly help you with your pet care needs. Usually weekends and holidays, but can accommodate some requests throughout the week as well, so please message me and I will try to work with you to fit the schedule. I can do drop in visits and walks. I can also board, I have a large fenced in backyard. I live in a very pedestrian-friendly neighborhood and within walking distance to the park with some nature trails, so your dog will get plenty of exercise. I can also crate your dog if preferred.

“Debbie is fantastic as always. She really puts my over anxious cat mom fears to rest when I am traveling and I always appreciate her pictures and updates. Debbie is the best!”



About: I am not currently working so I have all the time in the world to dedicate to the pups! In general I'm quite flexible, I like to fly by the seat of my pants. Within the past 9 years my brother got a Basset Hound, (who has since passed), my parents got a German Shepherd, (who has since passed), and I got a Shepherd/Hound rescue pup. Man so I miss having pup around! I've quickly become the dog sitter because I like dogs more than people! I am very comfortable with big dogs and open to working with smaller dogs. I love taking long walks with the pups. If the dog is willing I love to teach them new things! I have all of the patience in the world for dogs. They are and will always be my number one priority at all times. I will respect and follow any rules or guidelines you have knowing full well how much work goes into training and wouldn't want to cause any set backs. I'm a stay at home mom of a 5 year boy. He goes everywhere with me and is also amazing with dogs. So if your dog just needs some company or a nice walk, I'm your girl! I care for any pet as if it were my own. Any specific directions given to me will be followed to a "T". I know how important pets are and I treat them as such.

“I appreciated Hailey being available on short notice. She was very reliable and followed my care instructions for Lucy. I will definitely have Hailey checkin on Lucy again”


About: Hi there! I'm a 34-year-old professional living in Red Hook. While I have not yet adopted a dog of my own, I have house-sat, walked dogs for over 50 miles through apps like Rover, and cared for the dogs of my friends. My clients consistently rate me "Extra Caring" and going "Above and Beyond". ♻️ I use compostable waste bags that are environmentally friendly ❇️ I place an AirTag on the collars of dogs for the duration of walks for added safety 💚 I provide lots of care and affection for your furry family members --- I work from home, which makes it easy for me to pet sit. I joined Rover because I'm not at a place in my life where I'm ready to adopt my own cat or dog. So instead I’m happy to give love and care to yours! I have worked for 3 years in customer support so I know how to deliver exceptional service with professional communication. Every time I've met a client through Rover I'm continually amazed by how each person is someone I want to be friends with. Dog and cat owners here on Rover are some of the friendliest people I've met. Which is why I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member soon; especially dogs whose breeds rhyme with "boudin' beaver" and "musky", not that I'm playing favorites! I currently have availability on weekends from Friday evening to Sunday evening. I am available for drop-ins, walks, and house stays in the Albany area. I am a quiet and respectful person. I am happy to take care of your dog or cat in your home with any instructions you provide. I have previously house sat for friends who had two adult huskies and we all had a great time together.

“We would absolutely use Sandy again. She was great with our cats and provided excellent service. We appreciate how communicative she is and always looked forward to her daily reports. She helped up feel our cats were in good hands with her, which is very important whenever we travel without them.”


About: I’ve been a pet parent for over 20 years. In our home, we have a cat and a senior dog who is friendly with everyone. We have a giant fenced yard for all our furry friends to enjoy and play. I am well versed at caring for all types of pets and those that require extra care. Neighbors and friends ask for my help all the time! I work from home full time M-F and rarely leave home for more than a few hours at a time. I can walk dogs in the morning, evening, and give frequent potty breaks! I have a fenced yard and a dog to keep your fur babies company. I can crate your dog if needed or let them hang out with me while I work. It’s your choice on what I can do to best meet your pet’s schedule!


About: Its been 3 years since I’ve last been on Rover due to having a small child so I’m starting out on here all over again ☺️ My daughter is in school and camp now so I have time to help owners who don’t have a flexible schedule make sure their loved animals are taken care of. I have a big dog of my own who stays in the yard most the day or on the couch! He plays great with other dogs & is also a lover. I am a free spirt. I love hiking , trails, or just walking in the neighborhood. I offer hair brushing, bathing animals, nail clipping/grinding, and can brush their teeth if needed. I love taking dogs swimming at lakes and streams, running, and exercising animals are also some other fun things I offer. I’m full of energy & love animals- my favorite animals are horses & dogs. I am a self employed hairstylist so I have time to help since I make my own work schedules. Since I do not have a set work schedule if my services are needed for longer visits I can definitely make that happen. I’m able to start today or tomorrow and am very excited to help with your little family members 🐶🐱Thank you very much Ali Gant I am self employed so my hours are very flexible. I can also run home fast or to your house anytime to let an animal out for their feeding or walk. I have a safe environment and work on safety in others homes. The collar and leash will be put on before the front door opens so no running out the door is possible. Practice sitting before the door opens is a positive start to any walk.

“Lindsay was amazing with the care for my dog while I traveled abroad . She kept me updated and sent pictures. This is the first time I left him for longer then 3 days and she made sure he was happy and safe.”


“Sofia was wonderful with my 2 Goldens. I felt very comfortable with her from the start. She came to my home and fed my boys, let them out and played ball! She sent me photos of her visit and I could see the joy in their faces. It was great to know we could enjoy ourselves out of town while our boys were happy and safe. I'd definitely hire her again.”
