About: Chillaxing with animals is my favorite self-care! I have been taking care of cats and dogs for over 20 years. My speciality is rescue animals and all of my cats over the years have been from shelters. I've taken care of all types of cats and dogs from pugs to German Shepards, from kittens to senior cats. I am very gentle, compassionate, and give great pet back scratches! I currently work as a social worker and my schedule is very flexible. This means I am available outside a traditional Monday - Friday 9am-5pm schedule. I follow your instructions like a recipe and am proactive about asking questions related to the care of your pet. In addition, my former roommate is a practicing veterinarian and is on-call for me 24/7. :)

10. Gabby P.
“Gabby was so wonderful with my dog Eloise. I couldn't recommend her enough! I work long hours and it was so nice to get picture updates and see when she was there to pick up my girl!”
11. Sydney J.
“Sydney's calm and caring demeanor immediately put my nervous dog at ease (and me too as an anxious dog mom!) I cannot recommend her enough, she is responsible, kind, trustworthy, and great with dogs. Thank you for taking good care of Oliver!”
12. Ella M.
“Ella has been absolutely wonderful with our dog, Ford! She’s incredibly responsible, reliable, and communicative—always sending us updates and photos so we know Ford is happy and well cared for. He gets so excited when she arrives, which says everything about how comfortable and loved he feels with her. It's such a relief to know we can leave Ford in the loving hands of someone like Ella, who goes above and beyond to take him on long walks and always spends extra time playing with him and cuddling him. We highly recommend Ella to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and responsible dog walker.”
13. Mary P.
“Mary was great with Major. She gave me a feeling of security that I could leave my fur baby in her care without worry. Will definitely be booking with her again.”
14. Amy F.
“Amy is an exceptional caregiver! She has personally looked after my dog, Kona, with the utmost care and attention to detail. She follows any specialized instructions you might have (especially for my girl who’s the pickiest of eaters). Amy took Kona on walks around the neighborhood and park, and gave her a plethora of cuddles and snuggles. Kona absolutely adores her, and I can always trust that she’ll be in good hands with Amy. A+++ star sitter!!”
15. Katie A.
“Katie is one of the most honest and hard working people I’ve ever met. I have known Katie for over 15 years, and all of my pets have loved her. Katie adores all dogs and treats them like they are her children. Her dogs enjoy fresh cooked meals and regular pampering! I have never met a dog that didn’t love her. You can trust that Katie will treat your dogs like her own; and feel confident that they are in the best hands possible.”

About: With over 40 years of experience in dog care, I bring passion and extensive expertise to every dog I work with. For the past decade, I've dedicated my time as a volunteer foster Dad with Queen City pities, fostering 27 dogs and providing compassionate care for a diverse range of breeds, sizes, and ages. My experience spans from caring for energetic puppies to administering medical, palliative, and end of life care. Currently, I share my home with three dogs, two foster dogs, and two cats. I am committed to ensuring that each pet in my care receives the best care possible. I am eager to meet your pet and attend to their unique needs with the same dedication and care. I work part time from home, so I can be flexible. Let's discuss what works best for you and your pet. I am available most everyday. I am a trustworthy person and I am respectful of people's homes and privacy. I have reliable transportation and will do what I can to meet the needs of your babies.

20. Beth C.
About: I am a huge animal lover! I have had several cats and dogs in my lifetime and I thoroughly enjoy playing with and caring for my friends' and neighbors' pets. I am dependable and energetic and willing to assist with drop-in visits, hosting your pet in my home, or taking your dog for short or long walks whenever you need. I currently work from home, and I can make time to go for morning, lunchtime, or evening walks in the Buffalo, Amherst, and Kenmore areas. I have a fenced in yard and work from home, so I am home during the week. I also have a teenage son who loves to play with cats and dogs too.
