“This was the first time we have had a house/pet-sitter in a very long time. When Emily came for the "meet and greet" I was sure we made the right call. Both of our dogs (a 1yr old active boy and a 14yr old needy girl) immediately seemed comfortable. We came home to our house as we left it and calm, happy pups. We'll definitely book with Emily again and highly recommend her!”
About: I have taken care of several dogs and cats in the Olean area over the past several years. I am reliable and will come to your home. If your home is more than 8 miles round trip from my home, an additional mileage fee will be added to each visit based on the current federal mileage rate. I work full time, but my nights and weekends are mostly free! I have a pup of my own that loves meeting new friends too! I am sure to carefully follow directions from the owner to ensure the safety of their pet the entire time they are away from their pet.
“Elizabeth was wonderful! She stayed at our home for 6 nights, and replied to texts immediately and sent pictures of our 2 dogs and 2 cats everyday. The pets took to her right away. She has a calming demeanor and very polite. I highly recommend Elizabeth.”
“Great sitter. She was early even though it was early morning when we ask her to come! She played outside with our dogs and they loved her! House was clean just as we had left it. Will use again!”
About: With over 20 years of hands-on animal care experience, including veterinary tech training, rescue rehabilitation, special needs support, and behavioral management, I offer comprehensive, individualized care. I specialize in working with pets who need extra patience, medical oversight, and emotional understanding. Whether due to age, disability, or recovery needs. As a nursing student, my class schedule is balanced to allow ample time for the pets in my care. Your pet will never be left alone. My trusted partner and child are home full-time to ensure continuous supervision, love, and companionship. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my highest priority. I maintain a clean, secure, enrichment-focused environment designed to meet the needs of each individual pet. With specialized training in veterinary care, behavior management, and emergency response, I am fully equipped to handle special needs, post-surgical care, and customized medical support. When your pet is with me, they are treated like cherished family. Always loved, always safe.
About: My parents bred puppies most of my life and I learned a lot about taking care of puppies and dogs in general from that experience. I have a very flexible schedule. I work from home taking care of the house and my father and I am always able to make something work! I mostly want to take care of pets in other people's homes based on my dog not being the most friendly to strangers and their pets.
