“Valerie did such a great job taking care of my senior pup! She communicated well, was super sweet, and very understanding about the extra care a senior pup needs. I could tell Skip was in the best hands while I was away! I definitely recommend Valerie to any dog parent:)”

“Tona and Wanda (the Girls) spent a week with Alena. We enjoyed seeing the pictures and notes Alena sent. The Girls were in great shape when we took them home. And Alena went out of her way to help with getting the Girl's crate ready to travel. We highly recommend Alena when you need to board your pups.”


“Couldn’t be more happier to had crossed paths with Kimberly. She understands my crisis I’m in and has been nothing but welcoming, supportive, sends updates of my pets, in communication there is never any delays which is great. I’m able to pop in to check and get love from my pets which is more than ever needed for me at this time. I’m greatful for Kimberly and the outstanding service she provides for my pets. I’d highly recommend Kimberly to other fur parents”

“Denae and Mark were absolute angels! They are such nice people! I felt that my crazy, young pittie was in great hands! Zero felt right at home during the first meet and greet and that made leaving her there for a long weekend less anxiety-inducing for both me and her as she is a bit of an anxious dog. They made her feel so comfortable! I will definitely be booking with them again and would recommend them for anyone! Lots of pictures and great communication! Thank you Mark and Denae!”

“Juniper and Tay just finished their second stay with Madeline. This stay was much longer than the first. They were happy to see her when they arrived and seemed to remember her. During their stay Madeline went above and beyond to make our girls comfortable and happy! In addition she sent daily pictures and updates to keep our minds at ease. We highly recommend Madeline!”



“At first I was skeptical about using Rover to find someone to care for my German Shepherd that I just adopted and because of moving reasons I needed a place for him to be until my place was ready. I came across Jin, and she was immediately available, and I couldn't be more lucky to have found such an amazing human been, she took care of my Tony so good, with constant pictures and follow ups about his activities. I will only use her services to care for my dog. She us the best. Thank you so much for taking care my big baby tony.??”


“We had left Willow with Meghana for about a week and she and her partner were super accommodating to our dog! She constantly gave us updates and pictures on how our dog was doing. Our dog is a rescue so she is a bit timid and shy upon first meet. Meghana made sure Willow was comfortable and relaxed - they respected her space and she opened up to Meghana right away! They also frequently updated us on how Willow was doing, and it seemed like Willow made some new friends. We appreciate her service and her ability to care for our Willow for the week. Will definitely be reaching out again for your services! We really appreciate the care you provided. Thank you!”


“Miranda is such a blessing. She takes care of my dog when I go away, and she always does an incredible job! I always know he’s well taken care of!”


About: I have taken care of my own family dogs and cats for my whole childhood and adulthood life. I have been given the experience of watching my neighbors and friends' pets. It has ranged from hamsters to dogs. I also have experience with training and watching after puppies. I work full-time as a teacher so am home by midafternoon. I take a mile walk before I leave for work and when I get back, so your pet will receive adequate exercise and stimulation. I have a dog to keep your furry friend company! He is very calm and loves other animals. I have space if your animal needs separation or to be crated for any reason.

About: Hi, I’m Amy — your pet’s new favorite auntie! 🐾 Since growing up with big dogs, small dogs, and cats - I have been a lifelong animal lover living vicariously through pet sitting for friends. I’ve always been the one that friends, roommates, and coworkers call when they need someone they can trust with their pets—and now I’m here for you too. Whether your furry family member is a playful pup, a chill cat, or a quirky critter, I’ll care for them like they’re my own. I live an active lifestyle and love long walks, playtime, and cozy cuddle sessions. I’m happy to care for pets with all kinds of personalities—high-energy dogs, shy cats, and everything in between. Whether it’s boarding at my place or house sitting at yours, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved. I know how much your pet means to you, and I’ll always follow your care routines, send regular updates, and create a stress-free experience for both of you. I currently work from home on Fridays and am available on weekends for daytime or overnight dog sitting in my home (small and medium size dogs) or house sitting/drop in visits/walks for any pets between Friday 1 pm and Sunday 8 pm. Your home or mine, I love to be active or cuddle - whatever your pet’s personality is! My backyard is not fenced in, but does have a nice space for potty breaks. I am close by Delaware park for long walks. I don’t mind if pups use a crate or roam the house - whatever you prefer, but in my home I will ask that your pet is house trained.

“Jillian was so awesome to work with! She was easy to communicate with and was flexible with making plans for our last minute booking. She treated our cat like a king and sent video/picture updates the whole time we were gone! I will only be using Jillian for all my cat’s sitting boarding needs in the future.”


“Amanda, is the best sitter in Buffalo. She is great with my dog. She communicates really well and Selena loves going there for boarding. Thank you so much!!!!”


About: I have cared for my own dog and other’s dogs since I was young! I also have experience walking elderly dogs and dogs with disabilities! I am currently available to walk your dog on weekdays at and 5pm to 10pm. I am very flexible on weekends, as I can walk them anytime. I will assist your dog as much as you’d like: whether that means carrying them across streets, keeping close leash, or giving some encouraging belly rubs, etc.
