Pet Sitting Black Rock

“Andrea is wonderful! We are so happy we found her! I think she will be watching our cats for a long time to come… she is so wonderful with them and she did a great job with all the details!”

“Callie was great! She was super prompt and stayed the entire time(I’ve had other sitters not so this was extra appreciated) and June seemed happy in all the pics! Would recommend and use again!!”

“Would I book Haley again? I already have! Haley is fantastic, she went above and beyond my expectations! Haley took AMAZING care of our three senior dogs, who have special needs. One of my dogs needs to have his bladder expressed due to a spinal injury, Haley went out of her way to learn how to express his bladder and ensure his comfort. Haley gave the dogs ample outdoor time, shared photos and detailed report cards throughout the day which gave us peace of mind. You can tell when your dogs had their basic needs met vs. when they also had enrichment (play time, cuddles, etc.), my dogs clearly had enrichment with Haley taking care of them. The dogs were happy and content when we returned home, they hardly missed us! Cannot recommend Haley highly enough.”

“Ciara was super responsive and helpful when I needed a new cat sitter on really short notice! She wanted to know absolutely everything abt my cat's routine to make him as comfortable as possible while I was gone, and he loved her so much even though he's often pretty skittish around new people. I got lots of photos and detailed reports every day, she was really attentive to his behavior and making sure he was okay, and overall was just fantastic!”

“Great job”

“Christina is top notch! She is so kind and caring my cat instantly took to her. She took amazing care of her and even brought in my mail and watered my plants. I had zero worries while I was out of town. 10/10 would recommend!!!”

Tracie R.

“Alyssa is great! She took care of our dog and cat for 10 days (drop-in visits) while we were on vacation. She is friendly, trustworthy, and punctual!”

Jacquie T.

“Xava was fantastic! She was so attentive and genuinely caring toward my dog. She radiates confidence, and I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog in her care. I couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter and will definitely be reaching out to her next time!”

About: Hi! I’m Emma, and I absolutely love animals! 🐾 I’m a proud pet mom to a husky mix, a cat, and a bearded dragon, and I truly believe pets are part of the family. I’ve cared for all kinds of animals, including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, fish, reptiles, and hamsters. I also worked at a doggy daycare in college and have experience with dog walks and drop-in visits. I love taking long walks, teaching dogs new tricks, and, of course, giving lots of cuddles! Whether your pet needs a long walk, some playtime, a little extra attention, or simply someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll treat your pets like I treat my own—with lots of patience, attention, and love! ❤️ My schedule is very flexible, especially during the summer! I’m freely available for most of August, so I have plenty of time to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. Once the school year begins, I’m available for pet care before work on weekdays until 7 AM and after work starting around 4 PM. I’m also available throughout weekends, school holidays, and breaks. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and do my best to accommodate your schedule! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs and will follow your care instructions carefully. I’m attentive to details and will always make sure doors, gates, leashes, and other safety measures are secure. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and energy levels, and I’ll never force interaction if your pet needs space or time to warm up. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away. I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would want from someone caring for my own animals. ❤️🐾

About: My first formal pet sitting experience was taking out and playing with my uncle’s black lab puppy after school, my senior year of high school. Then, that same year I pet my aunt’s 2 cats in 2016. During the pandemic, for over a year, I stayed at my friend’s house while she was away at work. I would take her precious pup Lala out for walks, give Lala and her cat-sister Sophia their meds with breakfast, and treat them like the princesses they are. I recently left law school, so my availability is completely free until I find a full-time job! I would love to set your mind at ease by visiting your home as often as you’d like! I would care for my clients’ pets the same way I care for my cat-son, Remy. I give him all the attention he desires, and I do the less-than-desireable things (like washing his litterbox monthly, clipping his nails, and brushing his teeth) with a smile because I know it’s what’s best for him.

About: Besides caring for my childhood dog, Houston, since I was 11 years old, I formally became very involved in pet care during college. I joined an organization called 4 Paws for Ability that raises and trains service dogs for veterans and children with disabilities. I began as a sitter for the primary trainers on campus, watching their dog for a couple of hours during the day. Beginning my junior year, I began raising Red through 4 Paws, a 10 week old Golden-lab. I raised Red, while juggling class and work, until he was 1.5 years old and went off to advanced training. He now works as a facility dog at Dayton Children's Hospital. Since graduating, I remain involved with pet sitting for family and friends. I have sat my boss's daughter's cats (interesting, I know) and my aunt's puppy for a week. I love taking pictures of any and all animals, so expect photo updates often! I currently am a first year medical student here in Buffalo. Class is usually over by mid-day during most week days, making me very available for a walk or drop in visit. Furthermore, my weekends are pretty open for the time being, so I'd love to keep your pets company as a house sitter and have a relaxing (or active) weekend with them. I am very observant when it comes to things that are potentially harmful in reach of the pet. I will ensure your pet does not get into anything they shouldn't! Also, I have experience with ensuring dogs are safe in their kennel prior to leaving so your fur baby and home are safe.

About: I have take care of dogs and cats since I can remember. I’ve always had family pets that I looked after. Recently I started to pet sit professionally and have looked after pets with all manners of personalities and needs. I am currently working full time with a hybrid schedule. Monday through Wednesday in the office and Thursday through Friday remote. I am free every weekend and anytime after 5pm. Because each pet parent is unique and has their own ways to raise and care for their pets I strictly adhere to their rules and guidelines. That includes areas they have their pets walk and house rules for those that request house sitting.

“We had a wonderful experience with Marideth. She was incredibly attentive and caring towards our little boy, ensuring he was well taken care of during our absence. We returned home to find everything just as we left it, a testament to her respect for our home. Additionally, her regular text updates and photos kept us informed and reassured about our pet’s well-being. We highly recommend her services.”

About: I love getting to know each individual pet’s personality and needs, and approach them with respect to make them feel comfortable and safe. I have many years of experience with animals who need insulin shots and oral medications, and experience with all ages. I will treat your pets as if they were my own! At home, I have a tripod husky and a cat who has traveled far with me. I go on miles-long walks every day… always with dog treats in my pockets :) I'm currently working from home setting my own schedule, so walking your dog would fit well into my day. If you live near me, an overnight at your place is possible as I like to give my Stormy cat her breakfast and outside grass time by mid morn. I have lots of cat toys in my house for my cat. I hope your dog has toys and if it's just a walk, then a good leash and baggies to collect poop are essential. I am all about fresh water and seeing that their space is just how they like it.

“Jacquelyn was the perfect cat sitter! She handled everything with my cats perfectly and kept me updated with pictures and a message after each visit. We will definitely turn to Jacquelyn again the next time we need someone to watch our cats.”

“Katie was fantastic with Viola, who can be a bit timid when meeting new people. Katie’s communication throughout the drop in process was prompt and she sent over pictures of Viola during her visit. I absolutely recommend Katie and will be requesting her services again!”

John F.

“Claudia responded very quickly to all of our questions and took the time for a pre-visit before her first drop-in to make sure that our dog was familiar with her. She also has a very calming manner, which was helpful with our anxious hound. We highly recommend her!”

Peter L.

“Kaitlyn did a wonderful job for us taking care our our lab Betsy while we were on an all day tour of Niagara Falls. She was very professional, great communication and awesome with followup on the times we had specified our dog to be let out...Would absolutely use Kaitlyn again anytime we are back in the area.”

Sometimes I’m not in Portland, but I keep my service area and calendar up to date.
