This is our second time using Ian and we will continue to do so! He is great with our giant dogs, they typically get anxiety with us away and they were so quick to settle once we were home again- proving they were in such good hands. They looked so happy in their report card pictures. Highly recommend Ian!

About: I have worked in the pet care industry since I was around ten years old , in which I started pet sitting for many neighbors and relatives. Absolutely love animals and would love to continue working with them. I'm very comfortable with all types of animals, as I have owned pets my entire life including large dogs, cats, and rodents, I also feel comfortable with all types of reptiles even though I have not personally owned them. I now own my cat named Jellybean who is full of energy. I am very free on weekends but have other times during the week that I am able to work during. Such as mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I am willing to discuss working other times as preferred. I am currently a student at University at Buffalo looking for another outlet to spend time with pets. With ten plus years of experience, I have learned to read body language of animals and how to respond based on what they are saying. I respect boundaries of animals so they can build trust with me. I'm in contact with owners so they can also feel that their pets are left on good hands.

About: Hello, I’m Chelsea! I’ve owned pets all my life, and last year added a puppy to the family! I am often the go-to pet sitter for friends and family, and I love learning about dog training techniques and activities that stimulate the doggie brain! I live in Amherst and have a very flexible schedule, so let me know when your pet and I can spend some time together! My days are wide open- ideal for lunchtime drop ins or morning/afternoon walks. I am very flexible and should be able to accommodate your needs- plus the needs of your pet! I have a fenced in yard and a playful pup at home. In your hone, I’m sure to follow all your instructions to a T and treat your space like my own. I always go at your pet’s pace and match my energy with theirs. WEATHER POLICY: For temperatures below 10 degrees (or wind chill below 10 degrees) or above 100 degrees, I will take your dog out to potty and then return inside with them for the remainder of our time. This keeps me and your dog safe!

About: I have many years of pet care experience, including running an animal shelter for a year and I’m a certified Veterinary Assistant. I have two beautiful rescue dogs that are equally happy running around or snoozing on the couch and two rescue kitties that are always causing trouble. I can provide exercise to an active young pup or a relax with some loving with your older baby. I'm also comfortable with and happy to administer a variety of medications, if needed. I’m also happy to water plants and do light housekeeping while you’re gone. Keep your baby in your home in good hands for a stress free time for you and then! I’m a teacher off of school for the summer so I’m at your service as needed! I would love nothing more than doting on your loved one 💜 I can tailor my service to meet your needs. Walks, runs, hikes, fetch, grooming, a snooze… Enrichment in the way that your pet responds best!

Abby is the best dog sitter and caregiver for our sweet Great Danes. She is very kind, responsible, professional, and takes the time to make sure our dogs are loved. She goes above and beyond when caring for our fur babies sending us updates and giving them tons of attention. Abby has always responded to us promptly and has followed our directions perfectly when taking care of our dogs. We have used Abby multiple times to watch our fur babies and have found her very trustworthy. I would highly recommend Abby to anyone! She is phenomenal with animals and very experienced. We will always use Abby in the future to take care of our Great Danes!

I met Liz in a pinch when I needed a dog sitter that had experience with taking care of a dog with medical needs. Not only did she step up, she took amazing care of my pup and was so friendly and kind. I got plenty of updates the entire time, and my dog was happy when it was time to pick him up! I would absolutely recommend her and absolutely use her as a dog sitter again. The best experience I have had with a dog sitter thus far.
