Cat Sitting Colonial Village

“Amanda is the best!! She is very communicative, flexible, and reliable. Her pet photos are unparalleled. She takes wonderful, picture-frame-worthy, portraits of my cats, and she always includes a few photos that let me know they’re happy and cared for. She shows them eating, playing and—my favorite—curled up against her getting scatches and pets. From those photos, I know that they like and trust Amanda and that she’s spending meaningful time with them. I will definitely work with Amanda again.”

“Barbie was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond for us and our pets. Her detailed updates and frequent photos helped put our minds at ease while we were away. It was so comforting knowing our kitties were in such good hands! We will definitely be using Barbie again in the future!”

About: I have taken care of animals for family and friends for a few years now and want to expanded into caring into looking after the pets if other family’s that want to travel but unfortunately cannot bring their animals with them. I currently work in a restaurant as a line cook and have 5-8 hour days starting as early as 2pm and ending as late as 10pm so I am able to mostly do morning care and late night care but I can adjust my schedule as needed for emergency’s. I am able to adapt to any type of care needed including daily training or cleanup if needed and love to take my own dogs on walks and just relax with them when they are tired.

“Dana was great at sending pictures often with messages about how he was doing, and seemed really excited to have him in her home. Great experience!”

About: I've taken care of a variety of different animals in my life. From cats to ducks to pufferfish to guinea pigs. I have always had a deep love and care for all animals. I have volunteered at animal shelters and have had brief veterinarian assistant training. I am easy going but also very much so a rule follower and very attentive to detail. I work very part time and have flexible availability during the day time and can do playtime, house sitting, and administering meds. I am not available to have pets stay in my home. But I am available for house sitting for a short time and mail collection. I would follow all instructions given me by the pet parent. I am very cautious of their pets needs and habits that need monitoring. Id make sure to spend time playing and giving them love and making sure they were comfy and happy.

“Belle was great and I would highly recommend her! This was the first time using a service, we always had a family member watch our pets, so I was a little nervous. Belle put my mind at ease, she texted me updates everyday with pictures, and I knew by the pictures and texts she was thorough and taking such good care of my kitties (and fish). She was concerned when one of my kitties wouldn’t come out, but she is a very scared cat around new people, so I wasn’t worried about it, but within a couple days she came out while Belle was there, so I knew they loved her and trusted her. We did a meet and greet prior which I was really happy about, we were able to introduce her to the kitties and went over everything. We are going on another trip and have booked Belle again!!”

“Came as scheduled promptly. Took good care of our cat. Our cat is a scaredy-cat and Mackenzie tried to interact with him but didn’t push to make him uncomfortable. Sent good pictures.”

“Noelle took such good care of my cat - I just needed Noelle to watch her for the day and everything was so smooth. Great communication before and throughout the day, I didn't have to worry about anything. She also sent pics throughout the day so I knew everything was going well.”

Katie B.

“Angela took care of my kitty's and sent pictures. This gave me peace of mind while I'm away. I am able to enjoy myself, without worrying about my pets at home.”

Jodie & John H.

“Thanks to Kendra our 3 fur kids were happy and bright eyed when we returned home. She was very responsive to this fur kid mom which I appreciated so very much!”

About: Years of fostering dogs has given me hands-on experience with all kinds of breeds, ages, and temperaments. I know how to handle anxious pups, high-energy dogs, and everything in between. My goal is always to provide the same love and structure I’d want for my own pets—so you can feel confident your dog is in good hands. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because it’s something I’ve been doing for years through fostering and pet sitting. I plan my days around walks, feedings, playtime, and any special needs—like medications or training. I love creating a consistent, calm schedule that keeps pets happy and stress-free. I always start by learning each pet’s routine, preferences, and needs. In my home, I provide a clean, calm, and fun environment with regular walks, playtime, and lots of affection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their schedule to the letter and make sure their space stays tidy, secure, and welcoming.

“María is very nice, qualified and responsible. My cat needed oral medication and she was able to give it to her without a problem. I liked that she asked a lot of questions about things I may not have thought to tell her. Great job, Maria! Thank you”

About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, with long-term dog sitting experience on Cape Cod, MA and in Northeast Ohio. I’m also a devoted pug parent myself, so I understand firsthand the importance of routines, comfort, and the little quirks that make each dog unique. My partner and I recently relocated to the Buffalo area for his new job, and I’m excited to establish new client relationships and meet fellow dog lovers in the community. Dog sitting is my second job, and I work full-time—entirely remotely—for an Executive Search firm. This allows me to maintain a very flexible schedule and be home throughout the day. At this time, my preference is for house sitting in your home, where I can help keep your dog’s routine consistent in a familiar environment. Because I work remotely, I’m able to provide all-day, round-the-clock companionship while I work, with plenty of breaks for walks, playtime, feeding, and snuggles (with the occasional quick visit to check on my own puggies, of course!). I treat every dog as if they were my own and prioritize safety, comfort, and attentive care. I look forward to meeting you and your pup soon! I work full-time and entirely remotely for an Executive Search firm, and dog sitting has been my second job for as long as I can remember. I’ve found that remote work and dog sitting complement each other perfectly, allowing me to provide steady, round-the-clock companionship rather than just a few drop-in visits each day. I prefer to house sit and stay in your home, essentially moving in and working remotely while keeping your dog company and maintaining their normal routine. This approach is especially helpful for dogs with separation anxiety or those who need more frequent potty breaks. While I generally keep a typical 9–5 schedule, my workday is flexible, and I can take breaks as needed. I do have occasional meetings during the day and, depending on proximity, may step out briefly to check on my own dogs—but your pet’s care, comfort, and safety are always my top priority. I believe the best care comes from keeping your dog’s routine as close to yours as possible, all in the comfort of their own home. I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet before a sit so I can get to know you and your dog, learn their daily routine, and familiarize myself with the home and surrounding area. I always recommend sharing a simple “guide” or list of your dog’s schedule—feeding, potty breaks, medication, walks, playtime, and any special preferences. I’ve cared for dogs with all types of personalities, and understanding their quirks and behavioral patterns helps ensure a smooth, stress-free experience. For example, I like to know how they do on walks, whether they’re an escape artist or more of a Velcro pup, and how they react around other dogs. When it comes to walks, I’m comfortable walking two small dogs at the same time, and since it’s just me, I prefer one larger dog at a time. In addition to pet care, I’m also happy to help with light house-sitting tasks while you’re away, such as watering plants, bringing in mail and packages, and keeping an eye on the home. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible, knowing both your dog and your home are being well cared for.

“Marisa was absolutely amazing! This was my first time using Rover and I wasn’t completely sold on letting strangers into my home. Marisa made us feel so comfortable and safe. She sent tons of photos of my fir babies and showed them so much love and affection. She did a great job at cleaning up and feeding them as well! Would definitely book her again. You are amazing Marisa!”

About: I’m very responsible and mindful of other peoples property. I’ve owned cats and dogs my entire life. Im also dependable and can accommodate short notice. I currently work overnights. I’m available to stop by all days and evenings. I’m able to feed, play and/or walk your dogs. Can stay as long as you need me to. When taking care of your pet their safety and security will be my #1 priority. I currently have a fully fenced yard and I’m constantly supervising my own dogs when they are outside.

About: Hello! My name is Reta, and I look forward to meeting you and so many new animal friends. At home, we have our seven-year-old St. Bernard, Moose, and Tobi, an eight-year-old shepherd/husky/lab mix. Every now and then we have a foster or an overnight dog friend added to the mix. Volunteering with a dog rescue organization, I have experience with dogs of all ages and breeds with different temperaments, needs, and skills. Services provided: dog socialization, check-ins, feeding, walks, play time, general needs, overnight stays at yours or mine. I am an animal lover. I’m the person at the party hanging out with the dog. To able to do that professionally is the dream. Allow me to put your mind at ease whether it’s walking, feeding, checking in on your pet, or an overnight while you’re away. I work evenings in the restaurant industry so my schedule is flexible given time ahead. Any questions, please ask away! I work nights in the service industry so my schedule is fairly flexible with time given in advance. Daily check-ins, feedings or walks I am available daily until 4:00, if it is a work day. Pet sitting overnight or for extended stays, I would make proper arrangements. If boarding, I have a fenced-in yard and two dogs at home. When staying over, all animals eat from different bowls, and are fed separate from fosters or guests. We work on our manners and listening, as well as walk and play. Crated by request. Dogs can be kept separate if needed. If checking in, we would have covered basics and expectations during our meet and greet. Your space and your home, I treat with the utmost respect. Enter quietly, greet the pet, and proceed with walks, feeding, etc. I ask that we lay out all required services, copies of pet vaccines, and emergency contact information ahead of time.
