Pet Sitting Kenmore

“Andrea was super kind and communicative, and really patient with our relatively high energy/touch sensitive dog. I really appreciated her taking the time to let me explain her care during our M&G. She sent pictures regularly and played Mizzy's favorite games with her! I'd absolutely book with Andrea again :)”

“Melina was amazing! Our dog just loved her. She did several drop in’s for us and was in contact with us several times and even sent us pictures of our sweet dog while we were away to let us know how she was doing. Will definitely use her again!”

Amanda B.

“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: Calling all 2nd shift workers! If your pet needs a walk or check-in during the afternoon or early evening, I'm your girl. My weekday availability is (temporarily) limited to 2:30 pm - 8:30 pm. Weekend availability is pretty open. Hello, pet people! I took a 5-year hiatus from Rover due to some life changes, but I'm back to offering walks and drop-ins. If your work schedule and busy life are keeping you from giving your pup the exercise and attention they need, I'm here to help. Pets have always been a part of my life. Currently, our family has two birds and one dog: a 26-pound Mini Pinscher mix that keeps us on our toes. Professionally, I'm a freelance pet journalist, and I've covered everything from "enforced puppy naps" to "touch sensitivity" and beyond. While I'm certainly enthusiastic about meeting any dog or cat, I also understand some pets need a gentler approach. Every dog (and cat) is an individual, with their own unique preferences and personality. That's why I'll spend some time getting to know them at our first meet-and-greet. I do freelance work from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I can pop in for a check-in or "sniffari" walk when it works best for your pooch: mornings, afternoons, or early evenings. If you'd like to establish a weekly schedule, we can work that out, too! Safety on walks is my top priority. I'll make sure harnesses are properly fitted, leashes are secure, and water is available. I also check for hot pavement in warm months, snow salt in cold months, and slippery conditions in rainy, mucky weather. If your dog is reactive on leash, we can talk strategy (avoiding other dogs or triggers). And if your dog has a high prey drive like mine, I'll keep an eye out for rascally squirrels.

“Christina is top notch! She is so kind and caring my cat instantly took to her. She took amazing care of her and even brought in my mail and watered my plants. I had zero worries while I was out of town. 10/10 would recommend!!!”

“Great job”

“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!”

About: I’m a nanny and frequently work with the families with pets as well. I have two dogs of my own and have experience providing training as well. I work part time and will be able to check in frequently or provide walks for your pets. I work in the mornings but have plenty of time in the afternoons and evenings I would prefer to pet sit in your home. I have one dog in my home and although he is friendly, he prefers to have his own space and plenty of attention from his humans. That said, I will stop by frequently to walk, play, and take care of your animals as they need.

“Brianna took such good care of our cats while we were on vacation. We were nervous to leave them for an extended period of time and she made it stress free!!”

Tracy T.

“Emma was great with our nervous pup. She took great care of him, and sent us plenty of pictures during each visit. Would recommend to her anyone looking for a great sitter.”

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.

“I have used rover a few times with different sitters and while they have been great, Jenna was exceptional! Great communication and sent so many pictures and videos of not only the cats, but also updates on the tasks she was doing (refilling water bowls/cleaning litter). At no point was I worried that she was not genuinely invested in my cats' care (and even our shyer girl seemed to warm up to her very quick). I would 100% recommend working with her.”

Gloria Y.

“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!”

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.

About: I love furry pets of all shapes and sizes! I grew up with cats, a guinea pig, and a rabbit. Since moving out on my own, and learning my husband has cat allergies, we have owned dogs. We have two of our own, and I am thankful that my friends and family feel like they can count on me with their dogs of all ages. Recently, I have been working with a family member’s new puppy, and checking in on some neighbors senior dogs. I know dogs decide who they jive with, and I will never force it. I am returning to school as a full-time student right now, but most of my classes are online this semester. I am looking for work that can work around me right now. My weekdays are largely open, with classes after 3pm on MWF. You can expect me to only take on pet care that I can truly dedicate my time to. Since I am offering drop-ins and walks, you can expect me to follow your rules and wishes in your home. I promise to leave your space better than you left it, making sure to care for your pet and cleaning up after any messes made while we are together.

About: I have been caring for dogs since I was 7 years old. I trained 2 Shitzus and 1 Chihuahua from puppies, and cared for them until they passed. I have skills in bathing, walking, grooming, feeding, and administering certain medications. I am very compassionate and will care for your pets like my own. I work full time, but I work a 10 minute walk away from my apartment, so if I am watching your pet at my home, or if you live near me, I can make afternoon visits for walks, feedings, or company. I leave my apartment around 10a and arrive back home around 6p on a normal day, but I can make afternoon visits as well and I can even work remotely some days. My schedule is very flexible, so I can make most things work as long as I know in advance. I have no pets in my apartment currently, but my apartment is pet-friendly. I do not own any crates or other items, so I would need to have those provided for me if boarding your pet. My apartment has doors to close in every room to keep your pet from wandering if need be, but I also keep my space very tidy and neat, so nothing unsafe is within reach anyways. I do not have a yard, but I live in a very walkable neighborhood with a lot of grassy spots for your pet to enjoy and utilize. I also have a fenced park nearby if they like to run around and play.

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.

About: I have a sweet cat named Pepper and an energetic orange cat named Turmeric that lives with me and I grew up with a small terrier. I have always taken care of my neighbors pets growing up while they were away and I do the same for my neighbors today here in Buffalo! They have even connected me with their own friends as well. It has become something I love doing-helping out and getting lots of licks and cuddles as well! I have experience caring for older pets who need special accommodations as well as administering medications or giving any such as insulin shots and SSRI’s I am available for any walks, chow time or playtime on weekends anytime and after 4:30pm on weeks days but I can be very flexible and help out in mornings before my day job as well! Unfortunately, I have a furry friend at home that may not be open to sharing a space but I am happy to help out any furry friend in your home! I always make sure my pets are in good care and have everything they need to be happy 😊

About: My biggest concern while I’m away on vacation is “how are my dogs doing?” They are like my children. I have used Rover in the past to watch my dogs and home while I’m on vacation. I want to be that trustworthy person for someone else. I have ALWAYS been an animal lover! I have rescued dogs, I’ve fostered dogs and watched dogs for friends and family. I have two Golden Retrievers at home who love to have company come over and play in the fenced in backyard. I am looking forward to taking care of your Furbaby like they are my own I work Full-time but am able to leave for lunch to take care of any pets needs during the day. Right now I go home everyday on lunch and spend time with my dogs. I have a fenced in backyard and 2 Golden Retrievers who love to have company! At this time, if I watch your dog in my home, he/she would need to be crated while I’m at work. They would be crated no longer than 4 hours unless I make other arrangements with my job, where I could come home more frequently.

About: I have had dogs my entire life. All of my dogs are extremely spolied. I have extensive experience with all breeds and temperments. I have worked professionally with dogs in small and large (over 100 dogs) settings. I also have a canine behavior degree. I have hands on experience as well as a cerification for grooming. All kinds of dogs are welcome in my home, any size and any age. I have many repeat clients that I have been petsitting for years! My dogs and I spend hours everyday doing physical and mental stimulation, I would love to have yours join us. I am very flexible and can help you in any way you need; from walking and playing with your dog, to being their comfort when you need to travel or work. I can help with whatever your needs may be. Contact me if you are interested in what I can do! Thank you! ** Bathing pricing will depend on the size and coat condition of the dog** ** There will be a fee for late drop off and pickups. If we agree on a 7pm drop off, and you come at 7:45pm, a $35 charge will be added to the booking. For repeated offenses, the fee will increase $1 per minute per occurrence. If there are extenuating circumstances, please message PRIOR to the drop off time.** *For ANY damage to property, the pet owner is responsible for the cost of repairs. * I do my best to keep them to the schedule they are used to with feeding times, rules, etc. We play in the yard for hours every day, in summertime the pool is out as well! I only accept evening drop off/ pick ups typically after 730. If you need accommodations to this please ask in advance. Someone is home with the dogs most of the time. However, we are human and can not be with a pet 24/7. If we all need to leave for some reason, the dogs are separated accordingly. Your dog must be fully house trained OR crate trained. If your dog must be crated please let me know prior to their stay.
