“Jenn and Brian were able to watch our dog for 5 days while we were away. We received lots of pictures/updates throughout that time and it was clear that our pup was having a great time and was very happy! Highly recommend!”


“Beverly has been absolutely amazing. My dog loved her and her husband the three days she stayed with them. Beverly was very flexible with us and responsive whenever we texted her. We also enjoyed all the photos she sent us while we were away.”


“Chloe had a blast with Melissa! I received photos and lots of updates! She was able to fit me in with little notice also. Definitely using Melissa as my go to sitter!”


“Emmy was awesome and super caring with Brownie. She immediarely welcomed him and made him feel at home. Her home has a really nice backyard with plenty of space for dogs. I know Brownie had a great time with Emmy and her family!”


“Tona and Wanda (the Girls) spent a week with Alena. We enjoyed seeing the pictures and notes Alena sent. The Girls were in great shape when we took them home. And Alena went out of her way to help with getting the Girl's crate ready to travel. We highly recommend Alena when you need to board your pups.”


“Great experience with Kimberly. This was my first time with overnight boarding for my dog for 9 days. Kimberly kept in touch with me about Bella and also sent pictures. My Bella was very anxious in the beginning and I feel Kimberly met her needs to keep her calm. She even afford to give my dog pills to help with the anxiety. Kimberly was also kind enough to wait for our delayed fight even though we went about 2.5 hours past the pick up time for Bella, she was very understanding. I glad that I found her. I would definitely book with her again!”


“Mindy was truly amazing! Chichi clearly loved his few days at Mindy’s house while I was away and came home happy (unlike his previous stay at a kennel where he came home totally miserable!!) Mindy sent many pictures and kept me updated , she clearly is very knowledgeable about animals, and chichi was well taken care off - I will absolutely book with Mindy again!!”


“Juniper and Tay just finished their second stay with Madeline. This stay was much longer than the first. They were happy to see her when they arrived and seemed to remember her. During their stay Madeline went above and beyond to make our girls comfortable and happy! In addition she sent daily pictures and updates to keep our minds at ease. We highly recommend Madeline!”


“Alex went above and beyond when caring for our dog, Sumo. Communication was excellent, easy drop off and pickup, and kept us up to date while Sumo was in his care. He was even kind enough to clean our dog’s bed AND get new treats for Sumo to help him take his meds more easily. I would highly recommend Alex for any pet sitting needs. I’ll certainly be using him again in the future.”


“Erica was wonderful with our puppy bleu! She took amazing care of him and updated us with photos of him everyday. She even taught him a new trick!! Bleu was happy as could be when we picked him up. I would highly recommend her.”


“We had left Willow with Meghana for about a week and she and her partner were super accommodating to our dog! She constantly gave us updates and pictures on how our dog was doing. Our dog is a rescue so she is a bit timid and shy upon first meet. Meghana made sure Willow was comfortable and relaxed - they respected her space and she opened up to Meghana right away! They also frequently updated us on how Willow was doing, and it seemed like Willow made some new friends. We appreciate her service and her ability to care for our Willow for the week. Will definitely be reaching out again for your services! We really appreciate the care you provided. Thank you!”


About: Hi, I’m Amy — your pet’s new favorite auntie! 🐾 Since growing up with big dogs, small dogs, and cats - I have been a lifelong animal lover living vicariously through pet sitting for friends. I’ve always been the one that friends, roommates, and coworkers call when they need someone they can trust with their pets—and now I’m here for you too. Whether your furry family member is a playful pup, a chill cat, or a quirky critter, I’ll care for them like they’re my own. I live an active lifestyle and love long walks, playtime, and cozy cuddle sessions. I’m happy to care for pets with all kinds of personalities—high-energy dogs, shy cats, and everything in between. Whether it’s boarding at my place or house sitting at yours, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved. I know how much your pet means to you, and I’ll always follow your care routines, send regular updates, and create a stress-free experience for both of you. I currently work from home on Fridays and am available on weekends for daytime or overnight dog sitting in my home (small and medium size dogs) or house sitting/drop in visits/walks for any pets between Friday 1 pm and Sunday 8 pm. Your home or mine, I love to be active or cuddle - whatever your pet’s personality is! My backyard is not fenced in, but does have a nice space for potty breaks. I am close by Delaware park for long walks. I don’t mind if pups use a crate or roam the house - whatever you prefer, but in my home I will ask that your pet is house trained.

“Lindsay was great, and very accommodating. Our dogs definitely had a good time and were treated very well. Lindsay did a wonderful job communicating and sent us the most adorably pathetic picture of our dane (he's a big baby). 10/10 would hire again.”


“Amanda, is the best sitter in Buffalo. She is great with my dog. She communicates really well and Selena loves going there for boarding. Thank you so much!!!!”


About: With over 10 years of experience as a dedicated dog caregiver, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for a variety of breeds, from small Chihuahuas and Pugs to playful Beagles, energetic Aussies, and gentle Rottweilers. I offer everything from daily walks and potty breaks to teaching tricks and providing loving overnight care. My calm, patient approach allows me to build trusting relationships with every pet, ensuring they feel safe and loved while you’re away. As a true fur lover, I treat each pet like family, always giving them the attention and care they deserve. I’m currently stay at home so I will have enough time to watch your dog over the day and nights. Also available during the weekends. I have a fenced yard to let them go out on potty break whenever they need. I’m a strong person, so I ain’t afraid of taking them over walks, great relationship builder skills. I also can take them on a run if dog needs to canalize their energy.

About: I have cared for my own dog and other’s dogs since I was young! I also have experience walking elderly dogs and dogs with disabilities! I am currently available to walk your dog on weekdays at and 5pm to 10pm. I am very flexible on weekends, as I can walk them anytime. I will assist your dog as much as you’d like: whether that means carrying them across streets, keeping close leash, or giving some encouraging belly rubs, etc.
