“Where do I begin??! Rosie & I are so lucky to have found Haley. Rosie is a senior lady and comes with many quirks. Haley has gone above and beyond with understanding Rosie’s needs but also finding quick solutions to anything that may occur. I live in an apt complex and the elevator has had issues multiple times. Rosie cannot do stairs well and Haley was kind enough to take her to her own home with a better living situation for Rosie until they were back in service. Caring for a senior dog isn’t easy and Haley has time and time again known what to do to make every situation the absolute best for Rosie. I leave for every trip with peace of mind knowing she is with Haley. There are not enough words to describe how amazing that feels! We love Haley!”


“Jessie was wonderful! We went on vacation and she stayed with our two pups in our home. She sent me daily updates with pictures, was attentive to their every need (even noticed when George's snorts weren't quite the same and let me know his allergies were kicking in, gave him his Benedryl!), took them for walks, played and snuggled. All their favorite activities! I so appreciated having her with our babies and having piece of mind that they were safe and happy in our home with her. Ten stars!!!!!! Thank you, Jessie!!!!! We'll see you again for sure. :)”


“I was nervous using a new person from Rover after moving here and losing my old dog sitter. Jessica did great. She kept in touch with me as I am a crazy dog owner who has a boujee princess cockapoo whom I love like my child. Sent me a lot of pics too. Marlee loves her immediately. Will use again ?”



“Jessica was beyond wonderful with our dogs. She clearly is an animal lover and she treated ours like they were her own. Her communication was absolutely top notch with so many pictures and updates! I can’t recommend her enough!”


About: I have always had a connection to animals, and I believe they require more love, attention, and exercise than most of us can squeeze in a day. Let me brighten their day with walks and extra play time! My work schedule is flexible, and I would love to fit some time throughout each day to be around more animals. I can be contacted day of or scheduled weekly for assistance! My home is filled with three cats who my life revolves around. I work from home, so I am able to care for them throughout the day and shower them with affection! Let me go to you so your pets can get the same treatment (I really like dogs too).

“Ava was wonderful with my dogs! She took the time to meet Goose, my fearful dog, prior to house sitting and was so kind and respectful to Goose’s needs. She had all three dogs sleeping in bed and absolutely loving their time with Ava.”


About: I’ve had pets since age 5, and my own since 18. I’ve dealt with pets in need of cancer care, diabetic cats, dogs with orthopedic issues (not my own) and plenty of healthy animals! I spent 1 year in my twenties working at Petco and learned a lot there as well! I’d love to help with your family’s pet care needs. I treat animals like family, love to spend time with them and give them the attention they need. Are you in need of a trustworthy pet sitter? Look no further! I’m Nikki, a graduate student studying chiropractic. A bit about me: I’m a huge animal lover! So much so that I’ve offered cat and dogsitting for over 10 years and have dozens of happy customers who are happy to offer a reference. I’m also certified through AVCA in animal chiropractic - through this I’m also certified in pet first aid, and have a great understanding of animal anatomy and physiology, as well as plenty of friends in the veterinary world. I have worked with animals with disabilities, those who need IVs and medications, anxious pets, and many more. No breed restrictions apply! References available upon request! (And of course I’ll take dozens of photos of your pets to share with you if you’d like updates while away) I’m happy to offer walks and play time, company for your pets, feedings, and overnight care. In situations where owners are away for a few days, even if I am not staying in your home I will be happy to bring some schoolwork to give your pet the opportunity to have a human presence around for an hour or two in addition to the time spent actively caring for them. I have successfully administered medicines to both dogs, horses, and cats (and ferrets and chinchillas). I’ve cared for reptiles, goats, and fish as well. I have also administered subcutaneous fluids and insulin to cats, and helped ambulate dogs as large as a German Shepherd to the bathroom, and am happy to learn from you if your pet has any additional needs! I’m also trained in animal chiropractic, where I worked alongside large and small animal veterinarians and learned the ins and outs of animal anatomy - this along with my certification as a wildlife rehabilitator and experience as a dog groomer make me a great fit for your pet!

About: Hi! I’m Sydney, a lifelong animal lover with 15+ years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and other pets. Whether your pet needs a playful walk, cuddly companionship, or special care, I’m here to help! Pets aren't just animals—they're family. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they feel loved, safe, and happy while you’re away. Pet care is a central part of my daily life—I structure my schedule around it! Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddles, I make sure each pet gets the time, attention, and care they need. I only take on the number of clients I can fully commit to, so I’m never rushed and can give each pet quality time. I plan my day to align with their routines—meals, potty breaks, walks, playtime, or medication schedules. On weekends or busier days, I prioritize communication and consistency, keeping pet parents updated and pets comfortable and happy. As a teacher, I have my summers off and am available all day and have a very flexible schedule! When caring for pets in their own home, I follow your instructions carefully to maintain their regular routine. I ensure feeding, walks, medication (if needed), and playtime happen on schedule. I also keep your home clean and tidy—watering plants, bringing in mail, and respecting your space as if it were my own. I send updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and in good hands while you're away.

“I can't say enough good things about Mary; she was wonderful with my two dogs and two cats while I was out of town. She provided frequent updates, pictures, and followed my instructions carefully. All of my animals loved her, and I will definitely use her services again soon!”


About: I absolutely love dogs. My wife's family has always had dogs. They currently have a German Shepard and a chocolate lab. I absolutely adore them. I have a large fenced in yard, I am also very flexible to come and sit anytime you need. I love taking dogs for a walk and I love playing with them at the park especially fetch! I am very reliable and safe and come from a dog family. I will love and care for your dog like I it is my own. My children are now in middle school and high school and they love dogs as well. I can provide loving and affection for your dog and care for it like it was my own. I hope to hear from you soon Taking care of a pet just becomes part of my everyday flow. You feed them, take them out or clean up after them, and make time to play or cuddle a bit. Most days involve quick things like feeding and walks, while once a week you might do a deeper clean or grooming. It’s not too hard once you get into a rhythm—it just becomes routine. I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for, whether they’re in my home or a client’s. That includes feeding them on schedule, giving them fresh water, and making time for walks, play, or snuggles—whatever they need to feel happy and relaxed. I stick to their usual routine as much as possible to keep things familiar. If I’m in a client’s home, I also make sure everything stays clean and tidy, and I always send updates so they know their pet is doing great. I also have a fenced in yard.

“Amazing with our Alaskan Malamute who tends to have separation anxiety and is very needy/snuggly. She gave her lots of attention and pretty sure our malamute had a better “vacation” than us away from our 2yr old and with all attention on her! Our outdoor cat was also treated wonderfully as well. Highly recommend Olivia.”



About: Growing up, I absolutely loved animals—my family used to joke that I’d own a zoo one day! Whether it was caring for my own pets or helping animals in need, I’ve always felt a deep sense of responsibility and joy in making sure they feel safe and cared for. Over the years, I’ve rescued a baby deer, birds, and multiple dogs, and each experience taught me how to stay calm, patient, and gentle in all kinds of situations. I bring that same energy to pet sitting—being someone an animal can rely on, and someone owners can trust. My natural love for animals, along with my experience as a nursing student, means I’m observant, nurturing, and not afraid of a little extra care—whether that’s for puppies, seniors, or pets with special needs. I currently work part-time on weekdays, so I’m available for pet care after 4:30 PM during the week. Evenings are a perfect time for walks, drop-ins, or spending quality time with pets who need company after their owners leave for work. On weekends, I’m fully available and happy to offer boarding services, since I’ll be home and can give pets my full attention. My schedule allows for a healthy balance, so I can make sure each animal I care for gets the time, consistency, and affection they deserve. What sets me apart is my calm, compassionate approach and my experience as a nursing student—I’m naturally attentive, observant, and gentle, which carries over into how I care for animals. I’ve grown up with pets and currently care for two cats of my own, so I understand the importance of routines, patience, and respecting each animal’s unique personality. I’m also comfortable with both dogs and cats, including pets who may be shy, anxious, or in need of extra attention. I’m especially good with senior pets, and I’m comfortable helping with medication, special feeding routines, or mobility needs. I take pride in providing a calm, safe environment where pets can feel secure—and owners can feel confident.

“Elizabeth was wonderful! She stayed at our home for 6 nights, and replied to texts immediately and sent pictures of our 2 dogs and 2 cats everyday. The pets took to her right away. She has a calming demeanor and very polite. I highly recommend Elizabeth.”


About: I have been fortunate enough to have had animals most of my life. These have ranged from dogs, rabbits, chickens, horses, cows, and fish. I have volunteered time at a wildlife rehab and also worked a few years at a dog daycare facility that would average about 50 dogs a day. I have a bachelors degree in Animal behavior, ecology and conservation. I have always had a special place in my heart for animals. I currently have 2 rabbits, 2 dogs and 11 chickens. I am a substitute teacher so my schedule is rather flexible. It allows me to arrange my week how I need it. My afternoons are usually pretty open. I will ensure that each pet is safe, secure and well taken care of in the comfort of their own home while providing updates to their families.

About: During my high school years, I attended a BOCES program specifically for small animal care. There, I learned how to handle and restrain many animals such as cats, dogs, and other small friends! I Have also groomed and bathed multiple of family & friends dogs. In my spare time I enjoy taking photos of my own animals! I have three rabbits, two dogs, and my kitty. I have loved animals my entire life, and working with them has always been my dream! I work at a Dog Daycare, so I am able to handle around up to 30 dogs by myself! With this job, I am able to determine the body language of dogs, and understand what it means. Loud barking, rough playing, and big messes do not bother me whatsoever. I work as a doggy daycare attendant at East Aurora Pet boutique Monday, Wednesday,Friday, ten to six. I am constantly around animals and I love every second of it! I will fulfill anything needed to ensure your pet is happy and healthy while in my hands! Your pet is my number one priority when I am with them.

It’s clear that she has a genuine love for animals and a calming, caring presence that pets naturally respond to. Grace is kind, gentle, and incredibly reliable. I’ve always felt completely at ease knowing Jack was in her care. Whether it was for a short walk or an overnight stay, she consistently went above and beyond to ensure he was safe, comfortable, and well-loved. If you’re looking for someone you can trust with your pet, I can’t recommend Grace highly enough. She’s a wonderful person and a true animal lover.”
