“Shannon is excellent! I feel comfortable going away knowing my fur baby is being well taken care of. Shannon put me at ease with sending updates and pictures throughout the time I was away. I highly recommend Shannon and I hope she is available in the future!”
“Alyssa was so amazing with my fur babies. She sent daily photos and was extremely communicative. Also cleaned up behind them when they were being a bit naughty (knocked over plants lol) Ultimately, I came home to a clean litter box and extremely happy kittens. I am certain they will miss her and I intend to rebook with Alyssa in the future.”
“It was so reassuring to know my dog was in such good hands while I was away! Caitlin gave detailed daily updates and was flexible around some unexpected tummy trouble. I highly recommend working with Caitlin!”

About: Hi pet parents! I’m Addie. I have worked with a dog trainer agency for five years. I have learned how to properly take care of pups from this job! I also had a yellow lab all my life and have been one of his sole care takers. I’m currently a full time student with lots of extra time to hangout and walk pups! I go on walks daily already and it would amazing to have a friend with me! I am currently without a pet right now due to Moses, my boy passing away from old age. This is part of the reason why I would love to spend time with your pets.
About: I've grown up with pets my entire life and have had 2 of my own dogs. They both had medical issues so I am very familiar with administering medications and preparing special meals. My home is currently pet-free and I would be so happy to spend time with your dog while you're away. I have plenty of time to spend with your fur baby. I currently work part time and always have Wednesdays and Fridays-Sundays off. I also have some Tuesdays off, and if I do work on Tuesdays it is only from 8-2. Mondays can be discussed. My house has a fully fenced in backyard and I never leave dogs outside unattended. Dogs are welcome to snuggle on my furniture and in bed with me if they like. If your dog is crate trained, feel free to bring their crate or I have a large one they can use. There are no other dogs or children in my home so your dog gets my full attention!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for most of my life. It’s very important to me to provide the best care I can to them! I currently have 4 cats, and I grew up with dogs as pets. I love them both equally! I am currently working full time, but I can pet sit before and after work (8:40 AM - 3:40 PM). Furthermore, my weekends are free! My cats are all indoor cats, but we keep them occupied with lots of toys and have consistent feeding schedule. We had a similar routine with our dogs, taking them for long walks each day.
“Sydney was so great! She was a pleasure to meet during our meet and greet and the dogs LOVED her ( especially Honey). On her first drop by everything was perfect. We got pics and summary of the visit. She even brought in our Amazon package. She’s a keeper!”
“Christina is a very sweet girl. My 2 kitties went right up to her, Nala is a little shy but she loved her. Christina did an awesome job! I had to book at the last minute and she was able to accommodate us. I will be using her in the future. Many thanks to Rover and Christina for being there ❤️”
“Colleen did an amazing job watching our Phoebe. Communication was excellent, she provided great updates and pictures and went above and beyond to care for our dog. She played with her and her various toys and kept her engaged while we were away. I can’t express the benefit that such a peace of mind provided us. We looking forward to working with her again. Thank you, Colleen!”
About: My family had dogs the entirety of growing up, so feeding, playing, caring, and much more have been a part of my daily routine for years! I got a kitty a little under a year ago, so I haven't had a cat myself for too long, but I interacted with them through others pretty regularly! I love animals, and would love to get a dog (and maybe another cat) soon-ish, but with scheduling and housing, right now isn't the right time, so trying to work with others is my pet fill for the time being. I try to get to the Erie County SPCA on a semi-regular basis and take a dog out on a walk with their Doggie Enterage program and love the exposure it gives me to various breeds and pet demeanor. I can't wait to meet your furry friend if you think I would be a good fit! I'm a current College student who works part-time, so scheduling time with your pets will be a priority, and I do my absolute best not to overcommit to scheduling. If I take a job, I make sure that I prioritize working with your pet's needs. I'm unable to take pets into my house for care, but I will do everything to make sure your pets stay comfy in their homes while you're away!
About: I am extremely detail-oriented, I love animals, and I’ve cared for a wide variety of pets my entire life, from cats and dogs to reptiles, birds, fish, and small mammals. Currently, I share my home with 3 cats, a dog, a bunny, fish, and 4 chickens, so I’m experienced and comfortable with all kinds of animals! All of my pets are good with each other, kids, and other animals. My wife Emily will also be assisting me in caring for your pet. I work as a Registered Nurse at a pediatrician office, so I am available after 4 pm everyday and on weekends no matter the time. My wife works ten minutes away from our home and comes home on lunch to give a potty break. I understand how important your pets are to you, and I’ll treat them with the same love and care as I do my own (and trust me, they are SPOILED). In your home, I’ll ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and well-cared for. I will also follow your instructions closely to maintain your babies’ routines. Respecting your space and your pet’s needs is my top priority.
“She is amazing, I was able to rebook Jessica for another week after being stuck out of state and she took wonderful care of my cats, they were so calm when I got home and it relieved all of my anxiety knowing they were in her hands. She’s my go to when I need to step out of the house for more than a few days. Wonderful human!!!”
“Laura is great with Brody, and he is happy in all of the pictures that she sends me. Glad I found her, and would recommend her if you're looking for someone to visit your pup during the day.”
