About: I have had both cats and dogs for nearly my entire life. I have owned and cared for dogs of all ages and sizes, some with special needs. I believe that for the love and companionship animals offer us, the least we can do for them is make sure they are well loved back and always happy and healthy! As of Monday, May 18th 2026 my schedule is back to full availability. I look forward to helping with your pet care needs and making new friends! ☺️ If you have a fenced in yard, I am more than happy to play with your pup in their own yard. If you do not have a fenced in yard, I would just ask that their leash and a secure collar be placed in an area where it is easy to find, as well as instructions of how far/long you would like them to be walked/exercised. I am also willing to accommodate any other requests clients may have to ensure the safety and well being of their pets.
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages, and I truly love getting to know each pup’s unique personality! I treat every dog like they’re part of the family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while in my care. I also have 2 dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I always make sure they get plenty of attention and care! I work full time as a nighttime server, but I love staying active and spending time with dogs, so I’m always excited to fit walks and pet care into my schedule whenever I can! I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I pay close attention to each dog’s routine, energy level, and personality so they can feel as relaxed and happy as possible. During walks, I stay alert to surroundings, keep dogs securely leashed, and make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and water when needed. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and follow all care instructions closely to keep pets comfortable in their normal environment.
“Melissa is awesome! I needed a dogwalker last minute and she totally came to my rescue. She was beyond personable and professional, and I know my puppy enjoyed having Melissa come take him out for a midday stroll. She even practiced manners with him!! ?”

About: I have loved dogs my whole life. Unfortunately (with the exception of when I was very little and one year as a teenager living with my mother) I grew up without dogs living with my father in an apartment. Getting married changed that as my wife at the time of dating had one dog and we now have 3 wonderful dogs, all rescues. We have also fostered in the past. I am passionate about rescuing dogs and dogs (and all animals) rights to a loving home free of abuse. I receive so much joy from being with dogs and have formed a strong bond with all 3 of our kids. My wife and I have no human children so the dogs are pretty much our life. As of now I am in between jobs so I have a lot of availability. I am looking for late mornings through the evening. I unfortunately cannot do overnights or earl mornings. I don't think I could do it at my house as out dogs do not always get along with others especially on their territory. I would be available to work I your home or I can provide dog walking services.

About: At age 10, I started my own dog-sitting service from my backyard. Since then, friends and neighbors have consistently trusted me to care for their pets, and I’ve loved every minute of it. I have also worked with animals in a number of other capacities: behavior consultations, training and enrichment, rescue, and as a veterinary assistant—both emergency and general practice. I take a particular interest in reactive and fearful dogs. My own dogs were very high maintenance with epilepsy and severe anxiety, and my cat had diabetes, so I took their care very seriously. I treat other people’s pets how I would want mine treated, and that is with the utmost care and respect for the pet's and the owner’s expectations and boundaries. I am committed to providing a safe, healthy, and fun environment for each pet in my care. I work overnights, so I have time during the day to care for clients’ animals. I have plenty of time to devote to your pet and will spend as much time as possible with them. I keep your pet’s routine as close to normal as possible. This is why I care for your pet in your own home instead of home instead of mine—it’s what they know and where they’re most comfortable. I’ll update you with pictures and videos often!

About: Hi my name is Sarah! I grew up on a farm in Royalton, NY with lots of different types of animals such as dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, and much more. While growing up I gave each of the animals love and attention even the chickens. My parents always rescued animals even some of the chickens. My childhood animals stayed at my parents house due to them being older and since I moved to Ransomville, NY I always stop by so they can have some sissy time my mother calls it. I have 3 dogs (Jessie 12yrs, Romeo 9yrs, Izzy 3yrs) 2 cats (Cowy 9yrs, Sophie 9yrs) , and 1 bearded dragon (Littleman 10yrs). As of right now only little man moved with us due to the other babies are older and have only known my parents house, but they do come over for holidays and family events and love to see my house and littleman. My mother always told me when i pull in the driveway all she has to say is sissy is here and they all go crazy happy to see me. I love them with all my heart, and i treat every animal that I take care of with love, attention and most importantly like they are my own. I love helping animal families with care for their children. I sometimes work in office and other times at home, If you need around the clock care and I am in the office, I can make arragments to get care when I am not there, sometimes my husband helps with some of my clients and loves animals almost as much as me. He always says I love all animals and he loves animals to but will never have the connection to animals like I do. I do take care of lots of animals in and outside of my home such as dogs cats, reptiles , and farm animals such as horses, chickens, rabbits, goats, and even cows. I know most animal parents have a schedule for there little ones and also ground rules. I always ask when I meet new families I am taking care of if they have any rules or schedules for their animals. I always want to make sure when they are gone on vacation or even a day trip, that their animals are well taken care of and also to make sure that their children enjoy there time away as well.
