Doggy Day Care in First Ward, Buffalo, NY

“Max was wore out once I got him home so I know he had a fun day. Brian was great at updating me on Max’s day. I’ll definitely use them again to watch Max”

“Crystal is great with our puppy!! She was very attentive and informative with us throughout the booking process and always kept us up to date on how Ivy was doing while we were at work. Crystal is contentious of our pup’s needs and provides care and affection accordingly. We will definitely be booking with Crystal again!!”

“Mindy is an excellent, patient and understanding dog sitter. She watched our puppy for a few days, and made more progress with his loose leash walking than we’ve managed to! She’s a real animal lover, and it shows. Our puppy was super exited to see her when I dropped him off on his third day with her. He got to play in the backyard with other dogs, get accustomed to cats thanks to Mindy’s social Bengal mix, and got plenty of walks, exercise and cozy naps. She sent me photos and videos throughout the day.”

About: I bring a calm, confident energy that pets naturally respond to. Whether it’s a playful puppy full of energy or a senior dog who needs a gentler approach. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I’m especially comfortable with senior dogs, special routines, and administering medications if needed. What really sets me apart is my attention to detail and the love I put into everything I do. I take the time to understand your pet’s unique habits and needs so they feel safe and at ease. I also keep you in the loop with regular updates and photos so you can relax while you’re away, knowing your pet is in good hands. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, mid-day playtime, or evening snuggles, I can easily adapt to your pet’s schedule and needs. Because I’m home most of the day, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods. I can offer plenty of bathroom breaks, play sessions, and supervision—especially helpful for puppies, senior pets, or dogs with separation anxiety. Caring for animals adds so much joy to my routine, and I truly love making them feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on creating a calm, loving, and familiar environment. I stick closely to your pet’s usual routine. Mealtimes, walks, play, and rest. So they feel comfortable and secure. In your home, I treat the space with respect and make sure your pet gets the same love and structure they’re used to. In my home, pets have a safe, cozy space to relax, with lots of attention throughout the day since I work from home. I keep things clean, quiet, and low-stress, and I always provide regular updates so you know how your pet is doing.

“It was a great experience for our fur baby. Alyssa and her family treating him like he was apart of their family and you can tell he had a great time. We will continue to use her services moving forward. Definitely a 10/10!”

“Jennifer is truly the best! She took such amazing care of our pup Suki. W honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. From the moment they met, it was clear she has a special way with dogs. Her updates were thoughtful, detailed, and full of love, which gave us so much peace of mind. Jennifer is a true dog whisperer and we’re so grateful to have found her! Highly, highly recommend. 🐾💛”

“Laura was amazing with my off the wall super energetic 3 month old springer spaniel puppy!! She is a super experienced trainer and was amazing at providing a balance between structure/close monitoring for safety and a lot of fun play time for my girl. She sent a lot of updates and advice that was very helpful for our training as well! Laura went above and beyond and even gave me tons of training tips outside of the visit because my pup is very difficult and has been struggling with separation anxiety. Best value out of a Rover stay I’ve ever gotten!”

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.

“From the very beginning, communication was clear and friendly, and I felt confident leaving my pet in Matthew and Brett’s care. During my dog stay, I received regular updates with photos, which gave me peace of mind and showed that my dog was happy and well looked after. It was clear that they genuinely cared about my furry baby, treating him with the same love and attention they would give their own. I would highly recommend Matthew and Brett to anyone looking for reliable, attentive, and compassionate care for their pets.”

About: Hi! I'm Caitlin and I have worked with animals professionally for over 10 years in grooming, boarding, training and animal shelters. Now, I work remotely and spend my time with my 4 cats :) My specialty and preference is in cat care and senior dogs. However, I will consider all booking requests. I am currently not able to handle very energetic animals, or animals that are very strong. I am better suited to more relaxed pets. **Important** - I currently work a full time job from home and can be flexible with scheduling. I will work from your home if booked for house sitting, so it is required I have a reliable internet connection! - At this time I require m&gs for all house sitting services before bookings, to ensure our expectations meet and to make sure your pet is comfortable with me. For long term house sitting, I highly reccomend a trial run of 1 day of daycare or a drop in visit. I work from home full time so I am available during the workday when most people are away! I love being able to hangout with new friends during my work week. Safety is and always has been my top priority. I am proudly fear free certified and have worked on extensive safety training measures in all of my professional working environments.

About: With over 10 years of experience as a dedicated dog caregiver, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for a variety of breeds, from small Chihuahuas and Pugs to playful Beagles, energetic Aussies, and gentle Rottweilers. I offer everything from daily walks and potty breaks to teaching tricks and providing loving overnight care. My calm, patient approach allows me to build trusting relationships with every pet, ensuring they feel safe and loved while you’re away. As a true fur lover, I treat each pet like family, always giving them the attention and care they deserve. I’m currently stay at home so I will have enough time to watch your dog over the day and nights. Also available during the weekends. I have a fenced yard to let them go out on potty break whenever they need. I’m a strong person, so I ain’t afraid of taking them over walks, great relationship builder skills. I also can take them on a run if dog needs to canalize their energy.

“Julia was so sweet and helped Finney feel right at home. She was attentive to all his needs and even sent me pictures and updates throughout the day to let me know how he was doing. I’m so happy she could help me out!”

About: I’ve had a dog all my life. I adopted my most recent pup about 2 years ago and he’s a happy pooch. We walk three times a day and visit our nearby park regularly. He gets his yearly shots and monthly nail trimmings. I am the go-to choice to sit my friends’ pups, and have senior dog and puppy experience. I work from home, so can keep an eye on the pups and play with them regularly. I currently walk my own dog three times a day, visit the nearby park (Harlem rd park) after work most days, and visit Knox Farms dog park once or twice a month in the summer. I have a small yard 90% enclosed, so walk dogs regularly. There are friendly neighborhood dogs that we can interact with. I work from home, so play with the pups often. I promptly clean up accidents, if they do happen. I do not smoke and our house does not have animal smells. It is carpeted and we have a big sectional that animals can lounge on. We have a cat that has high safe places he can go to. I reward good behavior with praise and an occasional treat. Bad behavior is met with a stern “No”, but we have not had to break that voice out lately!

“Sarah was very welcoming and understanding with my fur girl’s initial anxiousness in an unfamiliar environment. She offered much puppy love and reassurance that everything is okay....by mid-morning her charge finally settled down and laid near her towel.”

“Melissa was very welcoming to us when we arrived. She and my fur baby hit it off from the start and she was very attentive to her needs. She would be someone I’d call upon again.”

About: I grew up in the country, always having two dogs and two cats. This fostered a true love for them inside of me! I have 10 years of experience caring for not just cats and dogs, but farm animals as well. My experience also bleeds into house sitting and taking care of these pets over night. I used to have a dog who was blind and diabetic, so I am aware of how taking his blood sugar works, and how to administer insulin shots. I also have experience with puppies, as my dog had 11 puppies years ago. I would love to be entrusted in walking/playing with/caring for your dog. Please consider allowing me to keep your pets happy and healthy in my care. My partner and I work together to care for animals we are entrusted with. He works from home and I work part time, so together we are able to provide lots of exercise, walks, and naps for your animals. We have a large yard with a long line to let your dog out on to enjoy the outdoors. Our friendly retriever mix will be a great companion and give your pup some socialization as well. We have toys for them to play with as well.

“Moose very much enjoyed his day with Marissa. She provided good updates and she sent him home totally exhausted.”
