“Beathany was very helpful and responsible ! She was wonderful with our dogs, one of whom can sometimes be wary of strangers. Highly recommend hiring her for your pets!”

About: Hi! My (preferred) name is Daisy & I've been taking care of dogs ever since we adopted my very first canine best friend in 2011! Friends and family have trusted me to take care of their fur babies and I've been handling & working with dogs almost every day for almost two years as a doggy daycare attendant, kennel staff, special pup advisor, and group coordinator. I love taking them on walks and practicing sits, stays, downs, give paws, etc... I absolutely love all animals and promise to take care of your babies as if they were my own! I currently work part-time so I'll have plenty of time to check in on & spend with your pets! I'm available Saturdays before 12pm, Sundays all day, & most holidays before 3pm. Weekday hours vary and I will always be super transparent about my availability! Your pets' safety is important to me so please feel free to leave detailed instructions and I will follow them to a T. I will also keep consistent contact with you, providing (p)updates with photos! I can crate your dog(s) if needed as well. I'm also Red Cross animal first aid certified. I've handled several scuffles and am able to remain calm in any situation that may arise. Your pet will always be safe with me!
“Mia is the best! We always feel good knowing she’s taking care of our kitties when we go out of town. She communicates clearly, follows our sometimes complicated care instructions, and sends cute pics.”
“Erica did a wonderful job checking in on our four cats while we were on vacation. Specifically she was able to get one of the cats to take his medication daily. She responded quickly and left very detailed notes and pictures. She also helped us out on very short notice, which we greatly appreciated. She went above and beyond by grabbing our mail and watering a couple plants too. We look forward to trusting her again with our kitties in the future.”
About: I have many many years of dog care experience. I grew up with high-strung Dalmations, raised children with Golden Retrievers , loved many Heinz-57s, and am currently a senior with a fabulous Golden Doodle. I’m a stay at home experienced “”Mom” who loves to work around the house (both inside and out) with my four legged friends as companions. On occasion I may make a run to Wegman’s however that kind of errand can be scheduled around my care of your dog. Our dog Chai is an integral member of our family. Chai usually follows me around both inside and outside the house. She loves having play dates with other dogs and is skilled at modifying her behavior to best suit her friends.
“Jessica did an awesome job and was a great help! She took Rayla out, even collected a urine sample for us where I previously failed! She cleaned up a mess Rayla made earlier that I just didn’t have a chance to get to yet! Jessica even helped with the documentation chart I have currently to track Rayla’s outside time and bathroom breaks! Will definitely use again! Thank you!”
“We recently moved to the southtowns and needed to find a sitter for our 3 cats that we trust - we are SO grateful to have found Marti, she took amazing care of our fur babies. We travel a lot and will happily hire her again anytime!!!”
“Jackie was great. Came by before the first visit to meet Maple and understand the routine. She sent photos during her visit and felt very comfortable with her. Would definitely use her again!”
About: I am very compassionate and loving with animals! Having the opportunity to spend time with and care for them means a lot to me. I even volunteer at a local animal a couple hours per week. I will go above and beyond to make sure your animal is taken care of with the utmost love and respect! I take care of every animal as if it is my own. I am able to care for specific needs that every pet has. Each pet has their own personality, needs and wants that deserve to be accommodated for! This is your baby, a huge part of your family, and it will be in great hands with me! We can go for rides, go to the park, and get treats. I will give baths and continuous care and necessary! I welcome my clients to reach out to me at any time, and I take pride in sending the cutest pictures!! I am a recent graduate from the University of Buffalo School of Social Work. I am flexible in my availability at this time as I study for the licensing exam! Please don’t hesitate to reach out at any time with questions! I’m currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pets! I’m very flexible at this time and love walking outdoors. I’m very patient and meet all animals where they are. I’ve learned to adjust to all different personalities that animals have. In fact, my cat sets very strict boundaries that I follow-she only likes affection on her terms. However, I love to snuggle, go for walks, and play with animals who love to do so!
About: I've always grown up around dogs and I have always had a deep love for animals in general. At my dads house, we've had a dog since as long as I can remember. When I was 5 we got a puppy at my dad's house and I would feed him, take him on walks, and play with him all the time throughout the years as we grew up together. At my moms house we got a shitzu puppy when I was 13 and another when I was 17. I help with feeding, walking, bathing, and lots of play time and snuggles! I currently have a part time job where I work 2 days a week (4 hour shifts), so I have plenty of time to stop by and see your pets whenever you need! When I stop by to check in on your pets I'm able to feed them, take them outside, and give them some fun play time. In addition to this, if you have further requests during my time there please feel free to ask and I will do my best to fulfill them!
“Jenna was a pleasure to communicate with, she sent many pics with the cats, and was always on time. All the pets seemed very happy on our arrival home! Highly recommend and will hire again!”
About: I have had dogs my entire life. All of my dogs are extremely spolied. I have extensive experience with all breeds and temperments. I have worked professionally with dogs in small and large (over 100 dogs) settings. I also have a canine behavior degree. I have hands on experience as well as a cerification for grooming. All kinds of dogs are welcome in my home, any size and any age. I have many repeat clients that I have been petsitting for years! My dogs and I spend hours everyday doing physical and mental stimulation, I would love to have yours join us. I am very flexible and can help you in any way you need; from walking and playing with your dog, to being their comfort when you need to travel or work. I can help with whatever your needs may be. Contact me if you are interested in what I can do! Thank you! ** Bathing pricing will depend on the size and coat condition of the dog** I do my best to keep them to the schedule they are used to with feeding times, rules, etc. We play in the yard for hours every day, in summertime the pool is out as well! I only accept evening drop off/ pick ups typically after 730. If you need accommodations to this please ask in advance. I do have a full time job but someone is home with the dogs 99% of the time. If we all need to leave for some reason, the dogs are separated accordingly. I have a fully fenced in yard. I never leave the dogs alone unsupervised inside or outside. For walks I ensure all harnesses or collars are tight enough so they can not slip out. I take care of every dog as they are my own. I also provide updates and pictures of their vacation while you are on yours!
About: I am well rounded with a background with diverse animals. I have had a rabbit for ten years and have taken care of dogs, birds, and other rabbits. I have also had a lot of farm animal experience as well. I have currently decided to step away from my full-time job so I have plenty of open availability. I currently have a part-time summer job that is very flexible allowing me to be open. I am available to do any pet-related work with respect and care to the owner! I treat all animals as if they are my own and how I would want my animals to be cared for.
“Michelle was great! She seemed very friendly over messages and was very responsive. She came over for a visit with my cat, Juniper, while I was away. She took some super cute pictures of Juniper on her visit. Juniper had a pretty full food dish and plenty of water when I got home too. I highly recommend Michelle. She did a great job!”
About: I’ve taken care of friends dogs when they went on vacation. I am happy to follow any guidelines you have for your dog and can stick to a schedule you give me! I am a current student on summer break and am able to care for your fur baby and give them all the attention and love they deserve. I do not have any other pets so there is no need to worry about your dog getting along with other pets in the home. I also have a spacious backyard and can take the dog on long walks around the neighborhood.

Kaitlyn K.
“Kaitlyn was absolutely amazing while dog sitting my puppy, Louis. From the moment she arrived, she was warm, attentive, and clearly experienced with young dogs. She took the time to play with him, keep him entertained, and most importantly, made sure he felt calm and safe while I was away. She regularly took him outside for walks and playtime, which helped burn off his puppy energy and kept him on a good routine. I could tell Louis felt comfortable and happy with her – which says a lot, because he can be a bit anxious when I’m not around. I really appreciated how communicative and caring Kaitlyn was. It gave me peace of mind knowing Louis was in such good hands. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, and loving dog”

Emma was fantastic! She did everything perfectly, followed my dogs strict diet, and schedule. When my dog needed to go to the emergency vet. Emma took her and did everything perfectly, I could also tell my dog warmed up to her very quickly, and loved her pets! Emma was fantastic and I plan to use her services again. I would also reccommend her to any family and friends! <3
