“Joey was wonderful. He met with us the day before for a Greet & Meet. He arrived promptly on both days and was very experienced & well-prepared to take care of our Senior. Joey was very detailed about Rufus's care plan and asked lots of good questions. He sent plenty of beautiful photos and updates during the day. Joey was able to use positive reinforcement (treats and positive praise) to wean him off his belly band. This was incredibly helpful as we have been able to continue without it.”

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.
“Sarah was absolutely AMAZING. We received picture updates every day! Our boy fell in love with her and enjoyed her company so much he almost didn't want her to leave! Will definitely book with her again in the future”
“Michelle was a past student of mine, but I didn’t know that until I met her!! She was friendly, and I could tell she loved what she did. I knew my dog, Otto, liked her!! I knew I would be leaving Otto in good hands. When I came home, I could tell Otto was well cared for! I would hire Michelle again, and I recommend her!”
About: I'm a passionate dog lover with 10+ years of experience caring for dogs of many breeds and sizes. I enjoy throwing the frisbee, walking, and taking them to the dog park! I'm committed to providing a safe and enjoyable experience for your furry friend. I currently work full-time at a daycare and am pursuing an undergraduate bachelor's degree in Business Administration. Therefore, pet care is typically only available to me on Tuesdays and weekends. I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. I prioritize their comfort, safety, and well-being. When caring for pets in their own homes, I follow their routine as closely as possible, ensuring they feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I'll feed them on their usual schedule, take them for walks or playtime, and administer any medications as directed. I'll also pay attention to their behavior and any signs of discomfort or stress.

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.
About: I have had my own pets since I was 18yrs old. Large ones, small one all different personalities. For some reason animals love me as much as I love them. I enjoy forming that bond with them. I will treat your animals as if they are my own. I will respect you home as I expect mine too be treated. I used Rover in my home before I decided I wanted to take care of others animals. I expected no one to touch anything of mine unless it pertained to the animals. I currently work a fairly flexible job so I will have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I have two of my own dogs so house sitting needs to be flexible I have a fairly large sized yard that your pups can run in. My two fur babies are very friendly and will gladly keep your pups company
