“Jenna has been wonderful with our pups. She was very responsive from the start and came over for a meet and greet quickly. Django took to her right away, which says a lot. He can be a reactive pup, and Jenna was calm and not intimidated at all. She spends time visiting and makes sure they are comfortable. She is also patient with our other dog who tends to be nervous around new people. Her steady, confident approach really makes a difference. We feel comfortable knowing our dogs are in good hands and would absolutely recommend her.”
“Nicole is always great. She’s especially communicative, friendly, and always goes above and beyond. We got stuck in the airport for an extra day returning from our trip and Nicole was more than willing to step in to help out last minute. Thank you for your kindness and flexibility!”
“Samantha was a super big help when I had to travel for work. She did a great job sending pictures and getting me updates on my cat. Will definitely be using again in the future and would recommend to anyone who needs someone to check in on their pets!”
“Gianna went above and beyond while looking after my cat. This is my first time using Rover and Gianna was super communicative and attentive. I would definitely book with her again if needed.”
“Jenna and Aiden were absolutely fantastic, Cabo was in the best hands and all the pictures while away made us feel he was safe and happy! We will definitely be using them again! Thank you so much for making this possible! You guys rock!”
“This is our 4th booking with Larissa for our shy cats, and we’re so lucky to have her again. She gives them loving, attentive care and always communicates thoughtfully :)”
“This was our first experience using Rover so I was a bit nervous. I contacted Julia and she came over for a meet and greet a few days ahead of time. She took excellent care of our two cats who are older and cranky at times. Julia was great! I loved getting the updates and pictures after each visit. That totally put my mind at ease. I would not hesitate to hire her again! Very happy customer!”
“Dakota is a lovely and attentive caregiver. My older lady cat needs a daily visit and Dakota was thoughtful and great in her communication. Odie was much more happy and relaxed when I returned. Will definitely work with Dakota again!”
About: I understand how stressful it can be to board your pet or leave them home alone. I want to care for your furry friends the way you would, so you can be assured they are comfortable and happy at home. I have had dogs and cats my entire life; currently I have one dog and one cat of my own. I've also cared for the pets of many friends and neighbors over the years. I love making new furry friends! I am available for house-sitting, dog walking, drop-in visits and playtime, cat care, etc. just let me know what you need and I'll make it work. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! I have a full-time job aside from Rover. I am available to care for your pets early in the morning, evening/night after work, and on the weekend. I work remotely a couple days a week, so I do have mid-day availability those days (let's talk if that's something you're interested in and I can give you more details). It's of the utmost importance to me that both you and your pet feel safe and comfortable with me! I'm happy to do a meet-and-greet before you commit to care, and I can send you all the text updates you'd like.
“Whiskey had a great time with Allison! Allison was very flexible with me and allowed me to schedule last minute. She did such a great job and I plan on using her again! She sent a picture which was so nice! I would recommend Allison!”
About: I not only love caring for animals, but learning all their quirks and personalities. I am very familiar with the patience and love it takes to care for seniors, and the space many animals want from humans (especially new ones). I am happy to meet them where they’re at and hopefully brighten up their day! I have lots of experience with giving pills, special diets, etc. as well. I learn fast and take animal care very seriously. I’m currently working part time and studying to apply for grad school, so I have plenty of time! I often am doing one of my many hobbies or spending time with loved ones, which can easily be shared with your little loves too. At home, I am vigilant about dangers for my cat when I am not around and triple check to make sure she is safe and she can’t get into anything. My main priorities are to make sure she is healthy, happy, and enriched!
About: I have, of course experience as a pet lover as a young child, merely watching and walking the dogs, feeding and changing litter/ picking up after the dogs. I never fully had responsibility and experience until I adopted my pal Leo. He is a high energy lab retriever and puts me through every step of patience! All in all, it has taught me to be stern and serious when needed, but flip it around to fun and playful as well. My boy knows to respect me and listen when i give a command. I know with my body language and direct nature will ensure your pups and kitties are loved and watched over. I will give your pets the time and attention you allow and ensure that while you are away there is plenty of fun to be had, and plenty of adventure as well :) I will be enrolling in school online at SNHU and will be taking courses at home. I will have afternoons and evenings off, So, plenty of free time for your beloved furry companions. I have experience with all types of dogs, not so much cats, but i am a day by day learner! I take everything into opportunity to gain a new skill. I will ensure your pet feels safe and secure with me, all of their needs will be met so long as they are in my care! :)
About: I’ve been caring for pets for several years and have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. Friends, neighbors, and family members have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they were away. I’m reliable, patient, and love making pets feel comfortable and safe. I can also help with routines, exercise, and giving lots of attention and care. I am currently working a 9-5 Monday through Thursday But available Friday- Sunday at anytime. If needed I can come after work if I am available I provide care in clients’ homes so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I always follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any specific instructions to make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and happy while you’re away. I’m respectful of your home, reliable, and will give your pets plenty of attention and care.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wynantskill
I have a "special needs" kitty as she is diabetic and needs just the right amount of medicine given in a shot twice a day. Leaving her makes me very nervous. Kimberly met with me and my cat before I went away so that I could explain everything. In her correspondences and visits she was always on time, upbeat, and attentive to my cat. Happy to say that through my week of being away, she did exactly what she needed to do to give not just the medication but the attention to my precious kitty. I was SO GRATEFUL and RELIEVED. She asked where to leave the keys on her last visit and I said, "Keep them. If I go away again it'll be you I contact to care for my cat."
Larissa took such great care of our 2 cats while we were gone, they didn't even care that we came back from vacation! She was very attentive to the needs of our fur babies and ensured they got more than just their basic needs met. We will absolutely hire her again when needed!
Jenna and Aidan have been wonderful sitters for our 13 yr old cats Boots. We booked with a week to spare and they agreed to a meet and greet before confirming the booking which put our minds at ease. We would recommend them to anyone looking for caring sitters. Thank you both! Boots also says thank you 🐱

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Wynantskill is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 1,120 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Wynantskill. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Wynantskill. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
