“(I have a BullyMix) Jayla is great! Warm personality can see she is caring and my pup will be in great hands and he was!! This was my first time and my pups first of staying overnight and overall with someone he doesn't know. She shared pictures and updates and accommodated my delay in schedule. He seemed happy and at ease! Thank you will be booking again.”


“This was our first time boarding Charlie, safe to say everyone was nervous. But reading other reviews and then getting pictures and videos of him playing with the group helped us relax while on vacation! Thank you so much Maggie, will definitely be back!”

“Cooper loved his stay with Robin & John!!!! Them, their house, and their dogs are all great! And I appreciate that they could accommodate a meet and greet quickly and take Cooper on such short notice.”

“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!!”


“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.”

“We couldn’t have wished for a better person/place for our 4month old lab Luna to have her first sleepover! Lori was incredibly sweet, kind, patient and her pup Rees is a sweetheart! Thank you Lori for making the best experience, we will definitely be visiting you again!!”

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.
“Our two pups had the best time with Margaret. She sent daily updates and pictures so we knew about all of their daily activities and how they were doing. We felt very comfortable with the dogs being in her care. We would definitely recommend Margaret to others in need of a dog sitter.”
“Jennifer was amazing while we were away. She messaged daily with updates and pictures of my fur baby. She put me at ease so I could enjoy my trip and not worry. Duke had an amazing time. I will def book again with Jennifer and recommend her to everyone as we couldn’t be happier by choosing her.”

About: Since falling head over heals for my Yorkie, nurturing for him has been one of the greatest experiences I learned. I potty trained him, bathe, and also searched up a recipe for a nutritional diet haha! We are always outside unless the ground is too hot then we wait later on the day to exercise for at least an hour, preferably a jog. I know of the greatest dog parks in this area and would love to introduce him to new friends <3 I am flexible with dog walks and part time doggy care. I am very organized with time and will know what to do and when to do so! The space I have inside my house is pretty decent but I like to spend time outside anyways. I have a fenced yard and will watch as they play. If its okay for field trips, I usually take long walks on trails to explore and visit the doggy park for some time. Open to all preferences.
“Kristine gave our dog Chauncey exceptional care! She gave us updates with photos , which is very important to us. She was communicative and overall just lovely to interact with. She even mended a bandana he was wearing. On top of it, she sent him home with a Halloween bandana she sewed! We will definitely request her care again.”

“Jarvis loved spending time with Malini and her family. She was very attentive to all of his needs and gave him lots of attention. I really appreciated her communication before and during his stay to make sure he had the best experience and was comfortable. He cannot wait to go back and see his new friends!”

“Great experience! The sitter was very flexible and accommodating, which I really appreciated. My dog was well cared for and happy. Would definitely recommend.”

Watervliet pet parents share their Rover experiences
Amanda was extremely organized and communicated clearly throughout the entire process. Her home was a perfect fit for Timon and he came home in tip top shape, ready to get back to lounging around on the couch. We would absolutely recommend and consider Amanda for future trips. It was a pleasure.

Sheronda is truly an excellent animal sitter. She is incredibly attentive, loving, and genuinely cares for every animal she watches. You can tell that caring for pets is something she takes seriously, and she treats them like family. Her and her family are wonderful people who create such a warm, safe, and welcoming environment for animals. I felt comfortable leaving my dog with her knowing that she was in great hands. I will absolutely continue bringing my pets to Sheronda whenever I get the chance, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets.

Frances and her family are amazing! Our sweet girl Dolly was in the best hands and we are so grateful that she got so much activity and attention. Frances was very easy to communicate with and gave plenty of pictures which made my day. Would absolutley re-book and reccomend

I didn’t think it was possible for my puppy to be tired but she is wiped from her weekend with Net and her pack! She had the best time playing and I was able to enjoy my trip knowing she was safe in a great home. Net was so accommodating about my last minute trip and understanding of my flat tire on the way home! I received several updates each day and we were sent home with some goodies! Will absolutely use Net again in the future. Highly recommend!

We had a last minute need to find a caretaker for our 5 year old Goldendoodle. Jonathan responded promptly, and was wonderful with her! She tends to be a tad anxious in new settings, but he made her feel very comfortable almost immediately. He also sent us regular updates and photos. It gave me a peace of mind. Jonathan has a great vibe!
