“Crystal handled my two rescues wonderfully. It was their first time being somewhere without us and everything went great. She was great at giving updates and sending pictures. We plan on booking with crystal again in the future.”

About: I've grown up with dogs since I was a kid. Currently, I have a dog that I got from a rescue over 7 years ago and he is my baby. You can trust me to take care of your dog like they are my own. I am caring and trustworthy. I have watched friends and family members pets before and looking to help out others! My current availability is mostly on weekends and holidays. During the week I am available for boarding, but I am at work full time on weekdays. I have a fenced in yard and a dog that loves to meet new friends! I have extra crates and toys if needed. I can follow your dog's schedule and spend time with them to make them feel comfortable.
About: Hi! I'm Caitlin and I have worked with animals professionally for over 10 years in grooming, boarding, training and animal shelters. Now, I work remotely and spend my time with my 4 cats :) My specialty and preference is in cat care and senior dogs. However, I will consider all booking requests. I am currently not able to handle very energetic animals, or animals that are very strong. I am better suited to more relaxed pets. **Important** - I currently work a full time job from home and can be flexible with scheduling. I will work from your home if booked for house sitting, so it is required I have a reliable internet connection! - At this time I require m&gs for all house sitting services before bookings, to ensure our expectations meet and to make sure your pet is comfortable with me. For long term house sitting, I highly reccomend a trial run of 1 day of daycare or a drop in visit. I work from home full time so I am available during the workday when most people are away! I love being able to hangout with new friends during my work week. Safety is and always has been my top priority. I am proudly fear free certified and have worked on extensive safety training measures in all of my professional working environments.
About: I grew up with 3 dogs and a cat! I have many years of experience of caring for dogs. Also, I worked in an animal hospital for 2 years as a veterinary assistant. I’m always available to take animals in for boarding because I don’t love the idea of kennel boarding. I have a small dog and a cat of my own at home so must be friendly with other dogs! All of my dogs are very friendly with other dog and are up to date on all of their vaccinations. I work from home so potty breaks are always available. While having the pup on board, I am willing to go on daily walks and am always up to play in my free time. I work from home, I am usually always home. I also have pets of my own and my 3.5 year old who need constant care. Rest assured though, he loves animals and is very gentle. I have a half fenced in yard but always walk the dogs out and wait for them while they run around/ use the bathroom. I’m always willing to run around and stimulate them as well. I can also keep up with crate training if needed.
“Jennifer is truly the best! She took such amazing care of our pup Suki. W honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. From the moment they met, it was clear she has a special way with dogs. Her updates were thoughtful, detailed, and full of love, which gave us so much peace of mind. Jennifer is a true dog whisperer and we’re so grateful to have found her! Highly, highly recommend. 🐾💛”
About: I’ve cared for pets since age 10. I am a full time caregiver to 2 children and dog mom ready to care for all your pets wants and needs! Caregiver fulltime and pet mom who loves to care for animals. Available anytime and always willing to travel if it’s needed for drop off and pickup Always reliable to work Any animal in my care will be treated like my own animals.

“Jenn & Brian made it so easy to plan a daycare stay for my two dogs while I was planning a visit to Niagara Falls. During the day, they sent cute pictures of the dogs, including one with their son having three dogs sit at attention. I could tell when I picked them up they had a great day and made new friends.”

About: I’ve had a dog all my life. I adopted my most recent pup about 2 years ago and he’s a happy pooch. We walk three times a day and visit our nearby park regularly. He gets his yearly shots and monthly nail trimmings. I am the go-to choice to sit my friends’ pups, and have senior dog and puppy experience. I work from home, so can keep an eye on the pups and play with them regularly. I currently walk my own dog three times a day, visit the nearby park (Harlem rd park) after work most days, and visit Knox Farms dog park once or twice a month in the summer. I have a small yard 90% enclosed, so walk dogs regularly. There are friendly neighborhood dogs that we can interact with. I work from home, so play with the pups often. I promptly clean up accidents, if they do happen. I do not smoke and our house does not have animal smells. It is carpeted and we have a big sectional that animals can lounge on. We have a cat that has high safe places he can go to. I reward good behavior with praise and an occasional treat. Bad behavior is met with a stern “No”, but we have not had to break that voice out lately!
About: I have raised two dogs (one large bread and one small bread) both from puppy to 16 & 17yrs old. I have had three cats (one still residing with me). Currently I dog sit two fur babies since 2020. In a week I am losing one of my buddies due to his parents relocating. I am already missing him and am hoping to make some new walking and cuddling partners. I work part time on weekends but can sit with advanced notice. Monday til Wednesday I am available for anytime on shorter notice. When I have your furry sweetheart I do not leave them by themselves at all,so I like to schedule when there is nothing to conflict with the time I have them. When in my house they have no restrictions from me, only what the parent wants. I have an outside bathroom area on leash for quick bathroom trips. I like to go for at least one or two long walks per day, weather permitting and your dogs abilities. I live in a walkable neighborhood and close to parks. When at your house I will follow whatever routine your partner is used to.
“Marissa is incredible! She was thoughtful, provided updates and photos. She’s also a great communicator, which I’m forever grateful for. Highly recommend and if we were local we would definitely have her as a sitter.”

“Sarah was very welcoming and understanding with my fur girl’s initial anxiousness in an unfamiliar environment. She offered much puppy love and reassurance that everything is okay....by mid-morning her charge finally settled down and laid near her towel.”

“She was great. She did more with my dog than I do when I’m with her. She helped my on every drop off and pick up. Whenever I’m back in town she will be my first choice. One thousand stars isn’t even enough! Thank you so much. You saved my life by taking care of my Dobie”

“He’s a great person and a huge animal lover! Apollo loves him and loves playing with the other dogs. I highly recommend Jose for all your pet sitting needs, he’s the best!”

“We were just passing through on a road trip and landed tickets to see the Bills play so this was a last minute book. Sierra was wonderful with our Bella who has separation anxiety. She took it slow with Bella and soon Sierra had her eating (she has NEVER eaten a meal when we are not there with her), going for walks, and napping. I can tell Sierra was great with Bella because she was happy when we picked her up and went right to sleep when we got home.”

“Mindy provided day care for my aunt's dog, Sassy, while we visited Niagara Falls from Arkansas. Sassy had never been under someone else's care and my aunt was nervous about leaving her with a "stranger". But Mindy was wonderful and allowed us to come for a 'meet and greet' when we arrived in town the day before our booking. My aunt was still nervous about leaving her the next day because Sassy, being a Maltipoo, has separation anxiety. But Mindy knew taking Sassy for a walk right after we left would be a good distraction. She was also wonderful about sending pictures and videos especially that first day and that made us feel better about leaving her. By the second day Sassy was comfortable going straight to Mindy when we arrived. Also, she was very flexible regarding drop off and pick up times.”

About: I am the go to guy in my family and friends group for dog sitting. I love all animals and would like to help you out. I've been helping out since I got out of active duty in 2018. I'm looking forward to make this a hobby and to help anyone I can. I work from home and I can be available anytime needed on any day. So if you ever need someone I can help you out. I have a small apartment but I enjoy taking pets on walks. There's a small park right around the corner. If you need me to come to your place, I will respect your property and and make sure everything will be left the way when I arrived.
“Julia was so sweet and helped Finney feel right at home. She was attentive to all his needs and even sent me pictures and updates throughout the day to let me know how he was doing. I’m so happy she could help me out!”
