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!

About: I have 2 dogs at my own home, and we often watch our grandparent's dogs. I have been asked to dog-watch neighbor's and family friend's dogs, so I am familiar with working with others schedules and needs. Bringing them on walks and playing with them to make sure they are tired by nighttime is something I am good at. I am in a couple of sports and other school activities but I will most definitely make time to come and hang out with your cute puppies. I can keep your animal leashed and take the dogs to a dog park if needed for more running room. I am willing to run around and play with the dogs!
About: I’ve had various of animals my whole life. I’ve had animals of all scales, from cows & horses, to lizards & ferrets. As well as training various of dogs from all different breeds, I understand your “scary” dog, as well as your sweet little lap dog! Between my previous employment at a boarding facility and my current employment at the animal shelter, i’ve worked and handled many different personality’s and breeds of dogs and cats. I have a part time job at the animal shelter, I typically only work from 9/10am-5pm on 1-2 weekdays. So I have plenty of time in the afternoon to drop in, or some time to get a walk or two in after work on weekdays. The days I don’t work I can come to your home whenever! I work 9-5 on weekends but i’m willing to come hangout with your fur baby’s afterward. I unfortunately can’t have fur babies come to my house, but i’m more than happy to come to you! I will keep your dogs on leash if you don’t have a fenced backyard, unless informed otherwise. I will also bring your pups on walks, I will keep them on leash, and use an extra leash if needed.
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.
About: I genuinely treat every pet as if they were my own, focusing on their individual needs, routines, and personalities. I'm dependable, attentive, and communicate openly with owners, ensuring peace of mind while they’re away. Whether it's extra playtime, careful attention to health needs, or simply being a calming presence, I go above and beyond to make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and happy. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine I plan my days around feeding times, walks, play sessions, and any special needs a pet may have. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddle time, I make sure each pet gets consistent attention, exercise, and care throughout the day. Their well-being is always a top priority in my schedule. In my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and pet friendly environment where pets can relax, play, and feel at home. I stick closely to their usual routines, offer plenty of attention, playtime, and outdoor walks, and make sure they have a cozy space to rest. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully to keep pets in a familiar, low-stress environment. I focus on maintaining their normal schedule, giving them lots of love and engagement, and keeping owners updated with regular photos and messages.
“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!”

“We had a great experience with Ana watching our dogs and home for a long weekend. She sent us lots of videos/photo updates during the stay and made sure the dogs had plenty of exercise! She also left the home in great condition. Ana is very reliable and a true animal lover! Highly recommend!”

“This is our second time booking Sam - Sam provided daily updates with photos, clearly gave lots of cuddles and time to our babies while we were away. House looks great and she is a phenomenal sitter, we trust her and our dogs enjoy her company, walks, and play time while she's here.”

“Grace did an amazing job watching our 2 dogs! They both warmed up to her right away and seemed to love spending time with her. Grace took great care of our house as well. She sent us daily pictures and videos of them and communicated with us often. We would highly recommend Grace to anyone who needs help with their pets!”

About: I’ve been a cat owner/lover since I was a child. I’ve dealt with some cat wound care & senior care. I have had about 6 years of experience with dogs. I love all animals and am great at reading their needs! I’m currently getting back into the work life after recovering from open heart surgery! I work DoorDash on the side and create my own schedule.

“Shea was amazing! I usually have family watch my dog, so this is the first time I have had someone outside the family watch her. I felt very comfortable and at ease the entire time. Shea did an excellent job and went above and beyond. I will be using her services again in the future :)”

“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!”

“Rachel did a great job taking care of our baby girl and helped manage things around our house while we were traveling! She went above and beyond to help with the house and most importantly making sure our pets were well taken care of. She was very good at communicating throughout the whole trip, which helped put our minds at ease while being away!”

“Aziz has been amazing on every front. When I needed a pet sitter with almost zero notice, he was at my house the next day. He was flexible with timing, always responsive, and kept me up to date. My dogs loved spending time with him and were all over him. He took great care of my house, too. He’s a smart, reliable, and compassionate sitter who I will ABSOLUTELY use again.”
About: I am a dedicated and caring pet sitter who truly loves animals. I always make sure pets have plenty of fresh water and get the exercise they need to stay happy and healthy, while paying close attention to their individual routines and needs. I am currently in school to become a veterinary technician and have hands-on experience working in the veterinary field, which allows me to provide knowledgeable and attentive care. Their dog would fit well into my daily routine. Since I work part time, I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule to provide consistent care, including regular walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins throughout the day. I make it a priority to plan my day around the dog’s needs to ensure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. In addition, I have fostered many animals, giving me experience with pets of different personalities and medical needs, and I treat every animal as if they were my own.

About: I have been an animal lover my entire life! I treat my cats like they are my children and I would do anything for them! I would take care of your fur babies as if they were my own! I also love dogs, I've had many dogs in my family growing up. I don't have the living space needed for a dog while living in an apartment. I would definitely have one if I were able! That's a big reason why you should let me pet sit for you! My availability is pretty open right now. I want to do a little something on the side besides other projects that I'm working on. They say that if you do what you love, you'll never work a day in your life! Pets definitely make me the happiest!! I like to keep the living space clean and sanitized, I clean litter boxes every day. I pick up poop while on dog walks. Also, while dog walking, if there's another dog near and the you're dog seems uncomfortable or threatened, I would move to the other side of the street or walk the other way to remove ourselves from the situation. Most animals, if not all, trust and love me back!

“Took great care of my dogs while I got to see some of downtown jackson hole. Dogs got to explore the top of the mountain, killed their energy so they could relax the rest of day. Dogs loved hanging out with her.”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was little, in my household I was responsible for, feeding, bathing, walking, and caring for them. I will be freelancing over the summer so I have lots of time to care for your animals! I am free on the weekends and during the weekdays later in the day! I have experience crating dogs and keeping an eye on them to make sure of their safety. I have walked all different sizes of dog as well.

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.
