About: 30 year old located in Cheektowaga who has reliable transportation and experience with pet sitting since high school. I’m organized and responsible as I have grown up with dogs ranging in weight/ size my whole life as well as having my own currently. Therefore, I feel confident and comfortable helping you and taking care of your pet whether it be walks or administering medicine as needed! My most recent dog watching includes a house with one small dog that has been reoccurring over the past 3 years, and another house with two dogs (one small, one medium), a cat, and a bird. Both dogs require specific diet instructions. I look forward to chatting with you and the opportunity to make a new fur friend! I do work full time Monday through Friday during the day, but I do not have any children so my nights and weekends are extremely flexible! In my own home I have a completely fenced in yard, but walk my dog almost every day (weather permitting). Daily playtime and snuggles are also part of our routine!

Alyssa was excellent in checking in on our cats while we were away for a week. Both cats warmed up to her quickly, even our shy one. She followed their care instructions perfectly and I would highly recommend her for cat drop in visits.

About: I have been passionate about animals and pet care since I was very young. With multiple animals of my own, I have experience with just about every age, demeanor, and species. I have worked at animal control as a kennel attendant, volunteered with multiple rescues, have provided foster homes for senior dogs and cats, and have experience with exotic animals as well. I am comfortable with any age dog, to include senior dogs or young puppies, reactivity (people or other animals), administering medication, mobility issues, etc. I am currently working full time, so most of my availability will be evenings or weekends. I can dedicate as much time as necessary during visits to taking care of your pets! Having worked in rescue and at animal control, I am comfortable with handling even large dogs in almost any situation. I know the proper tools for avoiding triggering situations, redirecting attention, mental stimulation, and energy exertion.

About: I have experience as an overnight pet sitter, drop-in visitor, and dog walker, providing dependable and attentive care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. I truly love dogs and all animals, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy and am passionate about! One of my greatest strengths is communication. I understand how important it is for pet owners to feel informed and at ease, so I make it a priority to provide regular updates, photos, and quick responses. I treat every pet like they are my own and work hard to ensure both pets and owners feel happy, comfortable, and confident in my care. As a college student home for the summer, I have a very flexible schedule throughout the day for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. Along with my nannying experience and active lifestyle, caring for pets fits naturally into my routine. I’m dependable, organized, and love spending time with animals, whether that’s going on walks, providing overnight care, or stopping in for visits and playtime. I always make it a priority to keep pets comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine when I’m caring for them in a client’s home. I follow all feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any specific care requests to make sure each pet feels as stress free as possible. I love spending quality time with animals through walks, playtime, cuddles, and attention based on their personality and needs. In a client’s home, I make sure to respect the space, keep everything clean and organized, and provide regular updates with photos and communication so owners feel comfortable while they’re away.

About: I have taken care of my sister dog for 7 months her name was chichi. I had lots of experience with taking her to walks, making sure she used the bathroom on her walks, also bathing her. I am very playful with dogs and make sure they eat and have a clean bowl of water. I work at my other job during the afternoon but I still am available to take care of your pups from 11am - 2:30 pm. I will always keep your pup in company. I love to watch over playful dogs and love to teach them new tricks. I’m a very kind and generous person and comfortable to be around with dogs.

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!

My babies are typically not too comfortable with people they do not know. Tatyjana Communicated with me that the dogs went under the bed but did not give up. She said she was trying to get them to warm up to her and they did. We will definitely have her back again.

About: I’ve always grown up with dogs and cats in the house since I was born and miss it since I’ve moved out here! I was responsible for feeding, walking, administering medicine, and it all. My girlfriend and I currently work from home so am available 24/7 for anything your pet needs. I take breaks throughout my day that can accommodate walks, play time, and feeding. On the weekends, I’m never too far from home and will be just as attentive as the weekdays. Yours pets safety and comfort is first priority!

Kelly was awsome! I will definitely be hiring her again to watch my dogs when needed. During the meet and greet she came with a pen and paper to write all the instructions down. She even took note on how to tell the dogs apart!. My oldest dog Zoey would not walk without a treat which she demonstrated during the meet and greet. This did not deter Kelly she was very patient with her! During the visit she kept me informed by texts and pictures. She even sent me a video! I definitely recommend her!
