Dog Walking Cold Spring

“The proof of Jackie’s expertise is with the pups. They adored her. She is obviously a dog person. We’ll be booking her again as a sitter. I know that bean and sprout will have a wonderful time with her. Thanks Jackie!”

About: Hi pet parents of Buffalo! Here’s a little about me: I began pet sitting on Rover 7 years ago while attending graduate school in Atlanta, and have received so much joy from meeting and caring for dozens of people’s pets throughout the years. Now, I’ve been putting down roots here in Buffalo and have made caring for pets my full time business. Based on your pet’s needs, I am available for drop ins daily between 7am-8pm, including holidays and weekends (check ins outside those hours can be discussed on an individual basis). I know how hard it can be to trust your pet with a new person. Rest assured, I will treat your pet like my own 2 cats (spoiled and loved)! I pride myself on connecting with each individual pet, my communication with clients, following instructions, and my reliability. Please, do not be embarrassed if you have a 5-page instructions document for your pet, or, alternatively, if you needed to book last-minute and only have time for a virtual meet-and-greet; I am here to adapt and provide care for your particular situation. Please send me a message or request to see if we may be a good fit. I can't wait to meet your pet! As pet sitting is my full time business, my schedule during normal business hours is very flexible. I typically accept drop-ins between the hours of 7am-8pm, although visits outside those times can be discussed on an individual basis. The services I provide are: - 30 minutes-1 hour drop-ins in the clients home to feed/play/other duties for cats/dogs/other animals -30 minutes-1 hour walks from the clients home for dogs Other time frames or scenarios can be discussed on an individual basis. For new clients, I provide a free in person or virtual meet & greet to discuss pet care before booking.

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life and have 15 years of experience as a pet owner. Over the years, I’ve cared for a variety of dogs, including a Black Lab, two Chihuahua rescues, a German Shepherd, a Pit Bull, and a Corgi/Husky mix. I’ve also cared for the pets of family and friends for extended periods, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s going for a walk, playing indoors or outdoors, or simply keeping them company, I’ll do my best to make sure they’re happy and well cared for. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, from small breeds to dogs weighing around 100 lbs. I’m happy to walk your dog around your neighborhood, stick to their usual routine, and administer oral medications if needed. My goal is to give your pet the care and attention they deserve while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands! I’m currently between jobs, so I have plenty of flexibility! I’m generally available on weekdays between 9 AM and 2 PM, with some weekend availability as well. With enough advance notice and good communication, I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that works for both of us. With 15 years of experience as a pet owner, I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, from little pups to the big guys! I understand that every dog has their own personality and preferences. Some love to play and stay active, while others are happiest just having someone around to keep them company. My own dogs are more on the couch-potato side, so I know how important it is to respect a dog’s pace and give them plenty of downtime, too. I’ll always do my best to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

About: Hi! I’m Morgan, a Canisius graduate student with lifelong experience caring for dogs—including my lab mix, Apollo, who’s back home while I’m at school. I’ve dog sat for friends and family many times, and I’m looking to love on your pet like they’re my own. I’m clean, reliable, and happy to help with walks, feeding, and even baths. Whether your pup needs a playmate or a calm companion, I’ve got you covered. I know routine is key. I am primarily online student. I am happy to discuss a schedule based on what your pet is used to. I’m committed to meeting your pet’s unique needs—whether that means checking in a few times a day, heading out for walks, or being a close companion while you’re away. I’m happily active, highly adaptable, and always focused on creating a safe, loving environment for your fur baby. You can count on me to be attentive, respectful, and clean in your space. Sometimes I’m not in Portland, but I keep my service area and calendar up to date.

About: I have taken care of dogs all throughout my life and love them! I am very active and walk several miles a day so this would be great for a dog who needs a longer walk during the day. I work a hybrid schedule so I can drop in during the work day so long as I am given one day in advance Mon-Fri. I have experience with large and small dogs. I am also a cat owner so I can also check on a cat along with taking the dog out I have a flexible hybrid in office schedule so I am able to drop in during the work week with 1 day notice so I can plan to work from home that day. I am available after 6PM Mon-Fri and available all day on weekends 10am-7pm I am familiar with the surrounding Buffalo area and the best neighborhoods to take a dog around especially if they are easily frightened by traffic / may want to avoid people coming too close

“Claudia has been a blessing for us this past week. Because of the confidence we had in her, we were able to travel to celebrate our granddaughter's first birthday. Our beloved Henry was in good hands with Claudia and she demonstrated great compassion and consideration for his needs. It's nice to know she is pursuing a career in caring for animals with special needs, as know so many will benefit from her caring heart!”

About: As a lifetime pet owner, until recently, I have owned dogs for all of my life, and I’ve gone above and beyond in the care of my pets and their needs. I had my last dog from when I was in 6th grade all the way until I was a Junior in college. Through this time, I watched him develop from a puppy to a senior dog with senior needs, including strenuous lifting and even diaper changes. I am willing to go to the same lengths when caring for your beloved pets! Throughout my life, I’ve also helped my friends care for their dogs and pets. I understand the bond between an owner and their pets, and the sacred nature of letting someone else take care of them, even for a short period of time. I am currently pursuing an online Master's Degree through SUNY Oswego, and I am relatively free for the time being. I could fit your care needs into any of my days. With experience in caring for pups and cats, I can pretty much do anything you would need me to do in your home, from feeding, to walking, to crating, to keeping them excited and entertained.

“Madeline was kind, respectful, and very sensitive to Anka, a senior gal, when they went for their first walk together ! We had already done a kind of meet and greet. I look forward to Madeline being overnice here for Anka. I will feel comfortable with them being together. Thank you, Madeline.”

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and many other small pets.

About: I’ve had both dogs and cats since I was 2 years old so I grew up learning to love and take care of animals! Aside from my home, I grew up around my aunt’s farm where we have anything from donkeys to chickens. It’s safe to say I’ve always been an animal lover! I’ve experienced anything from typical pet routines to those with special needs that require extra care and attention. I have experience with both puppies/kittens as well as senior pets and I love dogs of all breeds and sizes! I’ve been pet sitting for others through friends and family for about 3 years since I started college and thought I’d give Rover a try! I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of extra time to care for your pet! I am available mornings, nights, and weekends. Overnight care would need an advanced notice. My goal is to customize my care to fit your needs, wants, and requests. I know leaving your furry friends at home is never easy so I try my best to make that process as comfortable as possible for both pet and owner. Following your pets normal routine is my priority so they can enjoy their stay and you can enjoy your time away!
