“We will keep asking Andrea to help us with our kitties until the end of time. She has great communication with us and she delivers oral meds to our stubborn cat with no complaints. Our cats are always cared for and loved when Andrea visits. Highly recommend booking with Andrea!”

“Elisabeth was excellent with our senior pup Simba! He took a liking to her right away and she was able to maneuver him into his harness and take him up and down the porch steps easily. Quick, communication, reliable, and kind. Will definitely call on Elisabeth in the future!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life and have 15 years of experience as a pet owner. Over the years, I’ve cared for a variety of dogs, including a Black Lab, two Chihuahua rescues, a German Shepherd, a Pit Bull, and a Corgi/Husky mix. I’ve also cared for the pets of family and friends for extended periods, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s going for a walk, playing indoors or outdoors, or simply keeping them company, I’ll do my best to make sure they’re happy and well cared for. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, from small breeds to dogs weighing around 100 lbs. I’m happy to walk your dog around your neighborhood, stick to their usual routine, and administer oral medications if needed. My goal is to give your pet the care and attention they deserve while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands! I’m currently between jobs, so I have plenty of flexibility! I’m generally available on weekdays between 9 AM and 2 PM, with some weekend availability as well. With enough advance notice and good communication, I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that works for both of us. With 15 years of experience as a pet owner, I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, from little pups to the big guys! I understand that every dog has their own personality and preferences. Some love to play and stay active, while others are happiest just having someone around to keep them company. My own dogs are more on the couch-potato side, so I know how important it is to respect a dog’s pace and give them plenty of downtime, too. I’ll always do my best to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

“Would I book Haley again? I already have! Haley is fantastic, she went above and beyond my expectations! Haley took AMAZING care of our three senior dogs, who have special needs. One of my dogs needs to have his bladder expressed due to a spinal injury, Haley went out of her way to learn how to express his bladder and ensure his comfort. Haley gave the dogs ample outdoor time, shared photos and detailed report cards throughout the day which gave us peace of mind. You can tell when your dogs had their basic needs met vs. when they also had enrichment (play time, cuddles, etc.), my dogs clearly had enrichment with Haley taking care of them. The dogs were happy and content when we returned home, they hardly missed us! Cannot recommend Haley highly enough.”

About: Besides caring for my childhood dog, Houston, since I was 11 years old, I formally became very involved in pet care during college. I joined an organization called 4 Paws for Ability that raises and trains service dogs for veterans and children with disabilities. I began as a sitter for the primary trainers on campus, watching their dog for a couple of hours during the day. Beginning my junior year, I began raising Red through 4 Paws, a 10 week old Golden-lab. I raised Red, while juggling class and work, until he was 1.5 years old and went off to advanced training. He now works as a facility dog at Dayton Children's Hospital. Since graduating, I remain involved with pet sitting for family and friends. I have sat my boss's daughter's cats (interesting, I know) and my aunt's puppy for a week. I love taking pictures of any and all animals, so expect photo updates often! I currently am a first year medical student here in Buffalo. Class is usually over by mid-day during most week days, making me very available for a walk or drop in visit. Furthermore, my weekends are pretty open for the time being, so I'd love to keep your pets company as a house sitter and have a relaxing (or active) weekend with them. I am very observant when it comes to things that are potentially harmful in reach of the pet. I will ensure your pet does not get into anything they shouldn't! Also, I have experience with ensuring dogs are safe in their kennel prior to leaving so your fur baby and home are safe.

“Brianna is just wonderful. She took great care of my two kitties. She is kind, patient and very communicative. I have a very shy kitty and she warmed up to Brianna quickly. I had peace of mind while I was away and completely trust her in my home. Thank you Brianna for taking such good care of my kitties!”

About: I have taken care of my parents, family friends, and roommates animals since I was a teenager. I’ve house sit with cats and dogs. From hyper puppies to laid back kitty cats I am here to help. I’ll walk, feed, give lots of love, and attention to your beloved pet. ***I apologize, I will not be available all of August or the beginning of September 2023. I am in the process of moving. I will update my location soon. Thank you for your understanding.*** I do work full-time Saturday through Wednesday, it’s best for me to do check in’s and dog walks for a couple hours in the day. I also do house sitting with your pet, so they aren’t alone at night. I live with my roommates kitty named Nelly, I love her up and feed her whenever my roommate isn’t around. However, I cannot bring animals to my home, because I rent the property and other animals are not allowed. I would be happy to come into your home and provide care and love to your fur baby.

“Bryan is very reliable and provides detailed check in reports which is very comforting and helpful. Bryan is very observant and notifies me of any things I need to be aware of.”

About: I have been able to take care of animals (dogs and cats) since age 5 as I had pets throughout my whole life. I have also briefly owned horses building the skillset of hygiene care for larger animals. I absolutely love dogs. I have had experience with small dogs all the way up to English Mastiff and Ridgeback sizes. I have been a helpful pet sitter for many family members and some friends. I absolutely love animals and plan to incorporate them into my therapeutic process with clients in the future. Please send them my way and I will give them all the love and empathy while you're away and as needed! I am a graduate student with an internship which entails the need for a daily routine. I am more flexible for weekends and holidays, and I am also willing to make other days work given enough time notice in advance. I love to be outside year-round, especially fall and winter, so I will be active with animals in snow/cold or sunshine which means walks and playing! I have three cats who have everything they need including love and grooming! I have a three-legged cat who requires more care for hygiene and grooming, so he gets lion cuts every so often. All of my cats get treats and are spoiled with love. I am flexible and willing to work around whatever is needed for safety and the environment. I would prefer to do house visits and drop-ins to feed/let outside, etc. I would need to be provided equipment like leashes, crates, food bowls, food, etc. I do not want to disrupt your pet's routine or familiarity of their own materials.

“Jenna is very responsive and easy to work with. She seems to have a genuine love for pets. She was excellent with our cat while we were out of town. She even kept me updated on how our cat was acting a little unusual and not eating much. Can't recommend Jenna enough.”

“Gretchen dropped in on my pup and I couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver! Ziggy has separation anxiety and she made sure he was well taken care of. She was very communicative and proactive before and during her visits. Would absolutely book again!”

About: I’ve always had a love for dogs and learning about different breeds. I’ve had dogs growing up and have always been comfortable around them especially big dogs. I have house sat before, done drop ins for friends and have done dog walking for my neighbors. I do work a majority during the day(M-S). But I am available on evenings(except for Thursdays). I’m off on Wednesdays, every other Saturday and Sundays Your dogs safety is my first priority. I will utilize a leash when needed, make sure the gate is always shut. Out on a walk I will make sure we stay on the sidewalk and keep distance from other people and dogs(I always say to set your dog up for success). I will send pictures of your dog to you if needed so you can always have updates

About: I’ve taken care of pets ever since I was 8, when I ran my own pet service. I have experience with senior pets and with puppies, as well as more difficult temperaments. I’m a full time student, part time pet caregiver. I can take care of pets pretty much any time around my classes. I have always been a pet person, and am excited to pamper your pet. I can crate train the pet and I’m able to accommodate a variety of requests. I am unfortunately unable to take care of pets in my own home, due to lease issues.

“Jenna was super prompt and communicative, and took such good care of my two cats while I was away - took the time to play with them and sent great updates & photos. She's the best!”

“Our cat, Chumley, took to Madison right away. She has a wonderful kind and loving energy. We felt very comfortable having Madison come into our home while we were away. Madison sent us the cutest picture of Chumley while visiting with him. We are very pleased with her service and highly recommend her! Thank you Madison!!!”

“Ashley was phenomenal!! My circumstances were so last minute and she was so accommodating and flexible to help. She checked in daily with all the updates and great photos to keep me included in their day to day. My dogs had a wonderful time with her and I would absolutely love to use her services in the future and will hands down be recommending her to others. Thank you!”

“Katie was fantastic with Viola, who can be a bit timid when meeting new people. Katie’s communication throughout the drop in process was prompt and she sent over pictures of Viola during her visit. I absolutely recommend Katie and will be requesting her services again!”
