About: I grew up with pets in the house all of my life! I spent a couple months without them when I went to college but quickly realized how much I missed their presence. I volunteered at a rescue center and soon adopted my first cat as an adult and named him rocky raccoon after the Beatles song. He's getting old now but has two little brothers to keep im active. I have been cat/dog/house sitting for three clients for almost four years now and decided to join rover too! I have experience giving elderly pets meds and special food requirements. Im pretty flexible, just let me know what they need! I work during the week sometimes up to 9 hours but can provide pet care in the evenings and even over night during the week! Im available all day, any day on the weekends I am flexible to your needs! Many of my clients have pets with special requirements or needs and I am willing to help in any way I can.
“Brooke was an exceptional dog sitter. We have a giant 2 year old, attention seeking puppy, and Brooke went above and beyond to care for him. She not only took amazing care of our puppy, but she also left our house neat and tidy. She arrived on time and was very thorough with all of the details. We will definitely ask Brooke back to our home to care for our boy.”
“Rene is AMAZING!! She is so responsible, kind hearted, and trustworthy. It gave us such peace of mind to have her staying with our dog while we were away. Her love for animals, knowledge and her great pride in caring for yours shines through! She will be our go to and it was truly a gift to find her! She provides a lot of care, attention and photos! She asks questions if there is one and I felt very comfortable having her stay in my home. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!”
About: I love animals so much and it makes me happy to be able to meet new ones. I’ve grown up with all kinds of breeds and played with them. I am a hairstylist! I work evenings 3-8 at my salon Mondays and Thursdays but leave Buffalo around 2. Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays I work 10-3 but leave around 9. Saturdays I work 9-4:30 but leave around 8. I always like to leave an hour before work to get there on time. My drive back to Buffalo is about 35 mins. If your interested let me know as early as possible so if there is a change in my work hours I can let you know. I have 2 dogs. I of course feed them, bathe them, and sometimes brush their teeth. Both sleep with me every night. I will keep a great eye on your dogs and am more than happy to stop in and let ‘em out. For longer sits I’d love to play with them and am happy to feed them as well.

“Jessi was awesome! Kept us well informed on what was going on with our pooch daily. Plus kept house neat and clean and took care of flower and vegetable garden. Highly recommend!”
“Marsha took care of my 16 year old Havapoo who needs some extra care and meds for a week and did an excellent job. She kept me informed and sent pictures and made me feel at ease about leaving her. I didn’t have to worry and knew she was being well cared for. I would highly recommend her for anyone needing pet care.”
“Samantha was terrific with my quirky dog. She learned his vibes and personality quickly and worked well with him. She kept me informed, cleaned up after herself, and I would absolutely hire her again.”
“Autumn was incredible! She had 5 star communication and provided an incredible experience for our dog while we were out of town! Highly recommend and hope to book with her again!”
“We’ve got a long list of all the things we loved and appreciated about Jo during her stay with our fur baby. We truly couldn’t feel luckier that we connected with her! Our Brighton can be a bit of a handful but Jo’s confidence, kindness, knowledge, and the genuine excitement she showed made me KNOW that our girl was in the best of hands. Throughout her stay she provided great “pup-dates” with professional quality photos of what they were up to. She also helped out with some tasks around our house which was not expected but incredibly appreciated. We came home to a clean and tidy home and a very thoughtful thank you note with a super cute Polaroid photo. She thanked us but really we owe her all the thanks!! Would love to have her sit for us again in the future. Thanks, Jo!”

Rene’ did an excellent job taking care of Tootsie! She took her for many walks, which is Tootsie‘s favorite thing to do :-) She followed all of my instructions of Tootie’s eating habits, and they are great friends now. If you’re looking for kind, responsible, hard-working, you found the right person! Definitely will have Rene help me again.
Heather was super awesome to have taking care of our Furry Friends while we were on vacation. This is the first time I had someone in our home while we were out of town so it was VERY wierd. But Heather came to our home before our vacation to meet us and our furry friends. She is very personable and we could tell right away what a great connection she has with animals. Our schedule changed a bit for our vaca and Heather was VERY accomodating which was very apreciated!. We got awesome pictures of our furries every day, videos of walks she took our pup on and just great overall communication. If you need a pet sitter, Heather is a GREAT choice! THANK YOU HEATHER!
