“Maria was great with our two Aussies! She sent updates including photos each day, played fetch with them outside, and left our house immaculate. She even won over our nervous pup. We are also so appreciative to her for allowing us to add an extra night super last-minute without any complaints. I would highly recommend her for overnight stays with your pups! :)”

“Haley took care of our dogs while we were on vacation. We were able to fully relax and enjoy our time because she went so above and beyond with our girls! They were spoiled and cared for at the highest degree. She is a wonderful resource and person that we trust completely. She will be our go to for everything. Can't recommend her enough!”

About: One of my biggest passions is saving animals lives through fostering. My fostering experience has provided me many skills necessary to care for animals with varying needs, including young kittens, diabetic cats, XXS chihuahuas, and XXL breed dogs. Due to my experience in healthcare, I've provided many sub-cutaneous injections for diabetes maintenance and drug responsibilities. I've handled many small rodents including mice, and am comfortable with handling and providing care for smaller pets. I've managed care for animals with severe anxiety by providing them with daily psychiatric meds, and animals needing physical support with supplements, weight loss interventions (diet foods and safe, increased exercise), as well as animals with stranger fear. As a full time professional student, my mornings are often occupied by lectures, and Tuesday/Wednesday afternoons may be partially occupied for school responsibilities. I am very flexible, and can attend to pet care duties before, in between, and after my classes. I am open to over night stays and higher-maintenance care tasks, such as providing care for animals that require behavioral or psychiatric support during their family members absence. I enjoy playing with pets, within their boundaries of comfort. I have become apt at recognizing animals mood states, so I can properly respond to fear, excitement, anxiety, pulling on the leash, and over reactivity as necessary. I enjoy taking dogs on frequent walks if that is comfortable for them, and give occasional treats to reward 'good' behavior, such as sitting or laying down on command, and waiting to be fed. I am comfortable being cuddly with animals, and being very close and physical with them, if that fits in their boundaries. In my apartment I cannot host dogs, however, there are many parks and fields right in my backyard that I can bring your dogs to that they will enjoy.
About: I prioritize the safety of your pets and your home. I believe in understanding the unique needs of each pet. I'll take the time to learn about your pet's personality, preferences, and any special routines. This allows me to provide tailored care, ensuring they feel comfortable and happy. I currently work part time. I'll have plenty of time with your pups! I'm available for Drop-In-Visits and Dog walking on weekends, weekdays after 2 pm.

“Candace was amazing! I was worried leaving my 7 wk old puppy but they did wonderfully! Candace kept me posted with pics and made sure he was well taken care of! Definitely will be using again and recommend!”
“Kendra was excellent, very communicative and flexible, and she took great care of my pup Moose! I would gladly have her watch Moose again the next time I am out of town.”

“Miranda was wonderful. She clarified anything she wasn’t sure of immediately and sent us pics throughout the week- just enough to keep us informed but not too many to have us focused on back home. House was as clean as we left it, and our animals were happy and healthy. Will use her again!”


About: I have experience with seizures and strokes in dogs, am able to administer any kind of medication, and have some experience with animals struggling with anxiety. I am a graduate student just looking for some fulfilling part time work. I am available at any point during the weekdays and after October 31st on the weekends I will not be able to host any animals, but I plan on prioritizing the pet’s comfort within their own home and making sure all needs are met
About: I do not have a pet on my own due to my frequent travel schedule but that only means that your pet will get that extra love I have to share. I am caring and attentive, I notice the little things—each pet’s quirks, moods, and routines—and respond with patience. Your little or big friend will not get bored while in my care. I am a drafter working for an architectural company in Cheektowaga, my schedule is 8-5 every weekday. I love long walks after work in the evening, so don’t hesitate to shoot me a message even if the walk is needed within an hour! I will do my best to comfort your pet while you are away, I can play and train them, go on long walks, also if needed I can take a dog to a dog park or to vet appontments.

“Alysa was amazing! She sent us pictures everyday of our fur babies, clearly communicated & answered us when we reached out. My babies were all so calm & happy when we came home. She kept the house while we were away. She was amazing and we will definitely be using her again!”

“We were more than satisfied with our choice of Tiffany for watching our cat Lucky for 3 weeks. We were concerned that Lucky might not accept Tiffany once he realized we were gone. That fear was short lived when she shared a photo of him sleeping on her lap the first day. Lucky is a high maintenance cat because he is an indoor/outdoor cat, so more work for Tiffany was required. We are so glad that she was available for that time slot and agreed to stay in our home. We highly recommend Tiffany.”

“Isabel was an absolutely amazing sitter for our pup! We really appreciated the updates with pictures everyday and the consistent communication that allowed us to relax and enjoy our trip knowing Stella was in great hands. Our house was well cared for and tidy when we returned. Would 100% book Isabel again in the future!”

“Very competent and professional. She made us feel very comfortable leaving our dogs and our house in her hands. Our pups were very happy and even whined a bit after her. I would recommend her to anyone and will definitely book her again.”

“Katy has watched our boys multiple times and every time she shows how caring, attentive, and kind she is. She goes above and beyond and is ALWAYS communicating so you feel at ease. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”

“Corrie did a great job taking care of our home, senior dog, junior high energy dog, and cat who was having some digestive issues at the time of our trip. Our pets' stay-cation was so great, I think they were disappointed when we came home. She walked our dogs A LOT, making them nice and tired and cuddly, even the two year old coonhound. I would highly recommend Corrie to anyone who wants to take a trip and know that their home and pets are in good hands.”

Marideth was absolutely wonderful! Her Rover reviews were so good I almost couldn't believe them, but now I understand why. She was incredibly flexible, kind, and fantastic with both our kitten and our wild puppy. She has trainer-level skills, which we really appreciated! She went above and beyond, and we loved receiving daily photos and videos of both our babies while we were away. We wouldn't hesitate to trust her with our pets for an extended vacation. We would book her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional sitter!

Maria was great with our two Aussies! She sent updates including photos each day, played fetch with them outside, and left our house immaculate. She even won over our nervous pup.

Madeline was wonderful. Arrived at our house early to put us at ease before our flight. Very kind to our labs and she seemed to enjoy them by sending funny anticdotes or commentary on their behavior. Our pups are super kind but needy with hugs and attention. She was clearly fine with reciprocating hugs and love. She also cared for our house and plants. We would absolutely use her again and plan to!
