About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a little girl. Growing up, my family always had at least one dog in the house, and I would usually convince them to get more! I’m always asked to pet sit by family and friends as my love for animals is known by all. Since I’ve moved into my own apartment, I’ve volunteered at the SPCA and have fostered multiple dogs! I always need to have dog interaction in my life, so since I’m not quite ready to adopt, I take care of shelter pups or other people’s dogs when they need the help! I am currently an undergraduate student at University at Buffalo. I have a fairly flexible schedule as all my classes are on Tuesdays and Thursdays, giving me a generous amount of free time during the remaining days of the week. I currently live in an apartment with no dog of my own, however, I grew up in a house that always had a dog. I still consider my mom’s dogs my own, and visit them quite frequently. I’m the type to sit down and spend lots of quality one on one time with a pup. I never get tired of playing and would love to go on long walks around the neighborhood. I am also a sucker for spoiling dogs with treats :)
About: I love dogs and I've been caring for large dogs for over 5 years. I love walking them and play with them. I believe dogs are human's best friends. They're the best listener when you need to talk to someone :). I would like to take care of your dog while you can't. I will make sure they're being taken good care of. I have a large fenced yard and close to a dog run. I like taking them there when the weather is nice. I will tailor your dog caring style and make sure your best friend feels like he's home. Thanks for your time, and remember to enjoy the rest of your day and you know you can have a peace of mind :)
About: I’ve cared for pets since age 10. I am a stay at home dog mom ready to care for all your pets wants and needs! Stay at home pet mom who loves to care for animals. Available anytime and always willing to travel if it’s needed. Always reliable to work Any animal in my care will be treated like my own animals.

“Ciara took great care of my two cats for a week while I was out of town. A+++++ would recommend.”
“An amazing sitter! She went above and beyond for us. So thankful for her and being able to drop in last minute for us. I would recommend to anyone. She handled our crazy pups so well.”
“This was our first time using Rover, previously we have only left our animals in the care of immediate family. Ray was outstanding! The pictures that were sent each visit, documented the time we missed with Sofie. I couldn't be more pleased with the care and attention Sofie received from Ray.”
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 am currently working a job during the afternoon on the weekdays and the weekends but I will still be available to play with your pups on the weekdays some mornings :) 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.
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 there! I’m your dog’s future favorite human — the Cool Dog Auntie 😎🐕. I may not have a pup of my own (yet!), but I’ve been the go-to pet sitter and dog walker for family and friends for years. From weekend stays to weeklong pup-sitting, I’ve done it all — including walking just about every waterfront trail in Erie County! During a recent 8-month break from work, I spent nearly every day walking my friend’s dog, exploring parks, playing fetch, and bonding with her like she was my own. Whether your dog needs long walks, belly rubs, or a cozy buddy while you’re away, I’m here to make them feel loved and happy. Let’s get your pup’s tail wagging — I can’t wait to meet them! 🐾 I'm a hybrid worker, which means I have daytime availability on Mondays and Fridays, weekday evenings, and I'm often free on weekends (unless I'm traveling). Just reach out — I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs! When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both the animals and the space with the same respect I would want for my own. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible — from feeding schedules to walk routes and favorite toys — to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I keep things clean, make sure water bowls are always full, and scoop litter or pick up waste promptly. I also keep an eye out for any unusual behavior and will reach out if something seems off. Most importantly, I give your pet plenty of love, attention, and playtime so they feel safe and cared for. You’ll get regular updates (and cute photos!), and I’ll always lock up carefully, follow your home instructions, and leave things just as I found them — or better.
“Amanda took excellent care of our guinea pig Teddy over the weekend. We've had bad pet sitter experiences in the past but Amanda was very descriptive and sent lots of pictures during her stay. We highly recommend hiring her.”
About: I have raised two dogs (one large bread and one small bread) both from puppy to 16 & 17yrs old. I have had three cats (one still residing with me). Currently I dog sit two fur babies since 2020. In a week I am losing one of my buddies due to his parents relocating. I am already missing him and am hoping to make some new walking and cuddling partners. I work part time on weekends but can sit with advanced notice. Monday til Wednesday I am available for anytime on shorter notice. When I have your furry sweetheart I do not leave them by themselves at all,so I like to schedule when there is nothing to conflict with the time I have them. When in my house they have no restrictions from me, only what the parent wants. I have an outside bathroom area on leash for quick bathroom trips. I like to go for at least one or two long walks per day, weather permitting and your dogs abilities. I live in a walkable neighborhood and close to parks. When at your house I will follow whatever routine your partner is used to.
About: Hi, I have an associates degree from Northern Virginia Community College in Veterinary Technology. I have done prior dog sitting dog jobs before. I currently am responsible for the care and maintenance of my three csts and occasionally my parents cat. I have care experience with a variety of animals including fish, guinea pigs, hamsters, and anyother house hold pet. I currently work full-time for the VA, however I am free most evenings and over the weekend for walks, drop in visits, or whatever is need for your pet. I currently do not accept pets into my house. I will gladly watch your pets in your home if needed. I take all safety precautions seriously. No doors to the outside are opened unless the pets are properly secured to prevent escapes. All animals on walks are double leashed for safety.
