About: Having cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages for over 15 years, I treat every pet like family. I understand that each dog has unique needs, whether it’s energetic play and long walks, patient puppy routine reinforcement (crate training, gentle redirection, and potty breaks), or calm, gentle comfort for seniors. ​I take pride in creating a structured, safe, and positive environment so your dog feels completely at home. You can expect frequent photo updates, open communication, and thorough attention to routines, feeding schedules, and favorite quirks while you’re away. Pet care integrates seamlessly into my daily routine thanks to my flexible schedule. Because I work independently from home, I have wide availability throughout the day to provide attentive supervision, frequent potty breaks, feeding, and interactive play sessions. I can easily accommodate weekday drop-ins, walks, and daycare, as well as overnight boarding and weekend stays without leaving your pet unattended for long stretches. Safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. In my home, pets enjoy a clean, pet-proofed environment where routines are respected and separate spaces can easily be arranged for feeding, rest, or crating whenever needed. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with complete respect, following your precise safety rules, leash protocols, and emergency procedures. You will receive regular photo and text updates so you always know your pup is safe, relaxed, and having a great time.

Katie assured me they would be ok and for me to go enjoy myself on my little getaway! I am happy that I did! I luv how Katie made communication during their stay. I could see that my fur babies were well taken care of and was enjoying their stay. The walks, playtime, and other activities. Thank you Katie! You Rock!!!!!”

“I can’t begin to tell you how wonderful it was to have Bev. She was watching my dog during this last snow event and not only did she reassure me because I couldn’t get back in time (plane cancelled) that she would gladly keep her as long as needed she went to the store and bought more of her dog food as I didn’t send enough. I couldn’t ask for anything more. It certainly made me feel great that my dogs care was one less thing I had to worry about. I wish I could give her more than 5 stars.”

About: I’ve always had dogs in my life since before I can remember! I have been trained by the local humane society for dog walking and care. I currently do not have any animals in my house but always am open to have a friend stay over! I always grew up with animals and live with my two best friends who are just as animal loving as I am! I work 8-4 Monday through Friday but am only in the office Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday. I am available really whenever and can always stop in throughout the day if neededtkk. I am up early almost everyday and am super flexible with whatever! I have a fence at my house that is closed off from any road area. I’m super active and love being outside. I love walking and am comfortable with most accommodations.

“Racheal was terrific with my min-pin, Raina! She was given lots of comfy places to rest and got along with Racheal's dog well. Racheal has a fenced in yard as well as land behind that for walks and she took her along on outings as well. Raina seemed very happy and relaxed when I picked her up. Great experience all around, recommend her highly.”

Michaela took great care of my dog when I went out of town for a few nights! This was my first time leaving a pet with Rover so I was very nervous - after doing a meet and great I was at ease with leaving my dog with her! She sent a lot of photo updates which I really appreciated, and my dog looked happy and relaxed in all of the photos. I would absolutely leave my dog with Michaela again!

Jaddua was amazing. He was kind and made me feel at ease when dropping Mando off. He showed me where mando would be staying and going out. You can tell Jaddua genuinely loves animals and Mando was loving all the attention Jaddua gave him. Couldn’t have asked for better people to take care of Mando while I was gone. I missed Mando so much, thankfully Jaddua provided the most adorable photo updates. If I’m in Buffalo again definitely request Jaddua again. Thank you! Love - Mando and Jasmine :)

Marissa was the perfect sitter for our girl. She has a cozy home complete with all the essentials - dog blankets, chewies and sidewalks for walks. More than that, Marissa is a dog lover and made my dog her priority during the stay, with the photos of her tucked in under blankets to prove it 😂 I’m very lucky to have found her and will def be booking again!
