About: I know I love to have the peace of mind when traveling that someone I trust is caring for my pets while I am away and I want to provide that same service to someone else. We recently lost our beloved Dexter after 14 years, so we are very much missing having a dog around to snuggle and take on walks. We also have a cat named Joey and he pretty much keeps to himself (until it is time to eat of course) and 2 small children. I am available to come to your house and give your dog walks and check-ins or anything else you might need. We will be sure to give your baby all the love and care they deserve while you are away :) During the summer months I am off from my full-time job so I have open availability. When school is back in session I am available anytime Monday-Friday after 3pm and open on the weekends. I will follow all guidance from the owner as to how you do things. It’s important to be consistent for your pet while you’re away.

“Nafisa was wonderful all week long! She showed up on time or early every day. She was kind enough to give me a heads up before she arrived everyday to give me time to make it to the door and have my dog ready. They bonded immediately and my neighbors noticed how well she manages his large size and energy.”

About: I have taken care of my sister dog for 7 months her name was chichi. I had lots of experience with taking her to walks, making sure she used the bathroom on her walks, also bathing her. I am very playful with dogs and make sure they eat and have a clean bowl of water. I am currently working a job during the afternoon on the weekdays and the weekends but I will still be available to play with your pups on the weekdays some mornings :) I will always keep your pup in company. I love to watch over playful dogs and love to teach them new tricks. I’m a very kind and generous person and comfortable to be around with dogs.

About: Growing up, I absolutely loved animals—my family used to joke that I’d own a zoo one day! Whether it was caring for my own pets or helping animals in need, I’ve always felt a deep sense of responsibility and joy in making sure they feel safe and cared for. Over the years, I’ve rescued a baby deer, birds, and multiple dogs, and each experience taught me how to stay calm, patient, and gentle in all kinds of situations. I bring that same energy to pet sitting—being someone an animal can rely on, and someone owners can trust. My natural love for animals, along with my experience as a nursing student, means I’m observant, nurturing, and not afraid of a little extra care—whether that’s for puppies, seniors, or pets with special needs. I currently work part-time on weekdays, so I’m available for pet care after 4:30 PM during the week. Evenings are a perfect time for walks, drop-ins, or spending quality time with pets who need company after their owners leave for work. On weekends, I’m fully available and happy to offer boarding services, since I’ll be home and can give pets my full attention. My schedule allows for a healthy balance, so I can make sure each animal I care for gets the time, consistency, and affection they deserve. What sets me apart is my calm, compassionate approach and my experience as a nursing student—I’m naturally attentive, observant, and gentle, which carries over into how I care for animals. I’ve grown up with pets and currently care for two cats of my own, so I understand the importance of routines, patience, and respecting each animal’s unique personality. I’m also comfortable with both dogs and cats, including pets who may be shy, anxious, or in need of extra attention. I’m especially good with senior pets, and I’m comfortable helping with medication, special feeding routines, or mobility needs. I take pride in providing a calm, safe environment where pets can feel secure—and owners can feel confident.

About: Hello! I'm a teacher and a mom and I'm looking to make some extra money while meeting some great pets! I've had pets my whole life! Hello! I'm a teacher and a mom and I'm looking to make some extra money while meeting some great pets! I start summer break 6/28!! So I will be home more often during the day! I have two kiddos - 6 and 8. We would love to watch your pet at our home if they need more than a potty and play break!

About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments—whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or just providing companionship while you’re away. What sets me apart is my deep understanding of animal behavior, my calm, patient approach, and my genuine love for every pet I meet. I’m also confident in my ability to follow detailed care routines, and great at building trust with shy or anxious pets. Safety, reliability, and creating a stress-free experience for your furry family member are always my top priorities. Whether it’s a long walk, belly rubs, or just keeping your pet company, I treat every animal as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine and brings a great balance to my life. I currently work part-time as a waitress, which gives me the flexibility to dedicate consistent time and energy to dog walking, sitting, and overall pet care throughout the week. I recently graduated with my master’s degree in Occupational Therapy from D’Youville University and am currently studying for my national board exam to become licensed in New York State. During this period, my schedule remains highly flexible, allowing me to provide dependable care, whether it’s daily walks, drop-ins, or extended stays. Spending time with animals is not only something I enjoy, but also something that keeps me grounded and motivated as I prepare for the next step in my professional journey. Whether I’m caring for your dog in my home or yours, their comfort and safety are always my top priority. At my home, your pet will be treated like family. I have one dog of my own—Stella—who is the queen of our house and loves making new furry friends. She’s extremely friendly and gentle, and would be a great companion for your pup. We also have a fully fenced-in yard, perfect for safe outdoor play and exercise. If your dog is more comfortable in their own home, I’m happy to care for them there as well. I understand how important routine is, and I always make sure to follow your dog’s regular schedule to help them feel secure and relaxed. Whether it’s in my home or yours, I strive to create a calm, loving environment where your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for.

“Darrean was professional and prompt! Also I asked her last second for an hour walk and she was available so if you’re in a pinch then she is your go to. I needed someone to tire my dog out while I worked a 12 hour shift. Thanks!!!”

Keeley D.

“So personable, professional, and so thankful she was able to walk our dog on short notice. Highly recommend and will be using again!!”

About: I’ve had pets since age 5, and my own since 18. I’ve dealt with pets in need of cancer care, diabetic cats, dogs with orthopedic issues (not my own) and plenty of healthy animals! I spent 1 year in my twenties working at Petco and learned a lot there as well! I’d love to help with your family’s pet care needs. I treat animals like family, love to spend time with them and give them the attention they need. Are you in need of a trustworthy pet sitter? Look no further! I’m Nikki, a graduate student studying chiropractic. A bit about me: I’m a huge animal lover! So much so that I’ve offered cat and dogsitting for over 10 years and have dozens of happy customers who are happy to offer a reference. I’m also certified through AVCA in animal chiropractic - through this I’m also certified in pet first aid, and have a great understanding of animal anatomy and physiology, as well as plenty of friends in the veterinary world. I have worked with animals with disabilities, those who need IVs and medications, anxious pets, and many more. No breed restrictions apply! References available upon request! (And of course I’ll take dozens of photos of your pets to share with you if you’d like updates while away) I’m happy to offer walks and play time, company for your pets, feedings, and overnight care. In situations where owners are away for a few days, even if I am not staying in your home I will be happy to bring some schoolwork to give your pet the opportunity to have a human presence around for an hour or two in addition to the time spent actively caring for them. I have successfully administered medicines to both dogs, horses, and cats (and ferrets and chinchillas). I’ve cared for reptiles, goats, and fish as well. I have also administered subcutaneous fluids and insulin to cats, and helped ambulate dogs as large as a German Shepherd to the bathroom, and am happy to learn from you if your pet has any additional needs! I’m also trained in animal chiropractic, where I worked alongside large and small animal veterinarians and learned the ins and outs of animal anatomy - this along with my certification as a wildlife rehabilitator and experience as a dog groomer make me a great fit for your pet!

Whether it’s an early morning visit, a midday walk, or an overnight stay, I’ve got the time and attention to give your pet the consistent, loving care they deserve. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space with the same respect I would my own. I make sure your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for — all while keeping things tidy and stress-free. I’m happy to help with light cleaning around the house, like sweeping up pet hair, wiping down surfaces, or tidying up after playtime or meals. For dogs, I make sure they get regular walks, bathroom breaks, and outdoor time to burn off energy and stay mentally stimulated. For all pets, I stick closely to your instructions and routines to keep things familiar and comforting for them while you’re away. You can count on me to create a calm, clean, and loving environment while you’re gone.

About: There hasn't been a time in my life when I haven't cared for dogs. They are the purest form of unconditional love and I strive to offer them the fun, joy and love they are so deserving of. I currently enjoy a flexible schedule, so most times am able to work around your schedule easily for in-home visits for puppy play time or walks. I am able to care for your dogs in the comfort of their home, either for snuggle and play visits, overnight care, or adventure walks!

“We couldn't say enough good things about Jaidyn! She was incredibly kind and patient with our nervous dog. This was our first time successfully having someone who isn't family come watch our dog (who definitely has stranger danger to say the least). Jaidyn worked with her each day to create a bond and made such good progress with her throughout the week! She was so communicative and shared helpful feedback/asked good questions to make sure she could take the best care of Rory possible! We will definitely be asking her to watch Rory again in the future!”

About: Hi, I’m Leah—your pup’s new bestie! 🐶💕 I love long walks, endless snuggles, and making sure every furry friend feels right at home. Whether your dog is a zoomie-loving adventurer or a laid-back couch potato, I’ll be their buddy the whole time you’re away. Since I work a hybrid schedule, I get to spend lots of days at home keeping your pup company. I’m an early bird (up by 6am!) and a night owl (bedtime around 11pm), so there’s plenty of time for walks, playtime, and cuddles in between. Every pet I care for is treated like my own. They’re welcome on the couch or in bed, and I’ll send plenty of pictures and updates so you know they’re safe, happy, and loved.

About: I have had dogs all of my life, while taking care of friends and neighbors’ dogs as well. My parents helped me learn how to properly take care and love dogs, and that has carried over well. I am so passionate about furry friends, and I have never not had a dog in my life! I have helped friends and families with their doggos whenever they need me to. I am a theatre major who just moved to Buffalo for grad school! I’m on break from school when I regularly watch, so I have all my time to put toward it! I value pets more than humans, so you can always depend on me. I have a large area to walk them, and plenty of room in my living room to let them run around and play, and I love cuddling and spending quality time as well!

About: I always grew up with dogs. My father and his first wife were dog groomers. Which taught me quite a lot about the patience in raising pups. And caring for them. I love all dogs. I never discriminate against breeds. My goal is to have a large amount of land to rescue/foster pups one day. This is where I'm starting! My compassion and understanding for canines gives me an unending amount of respect and stamina in caring for them. I love walking and hiking! I work from home these days and I’m always looking for a walking partner! My schedule is very flexible during the week. I care for all pets as if they were my own. With patience, kindness and compassion. I tend with special care and time. Following all rules set by the household!

About: Growing up my parents got a dog for every child they had and theirs four of us. Ive been in love with dogs since. I worked at pestsmart as a bather for about year before I moved and no longer had transportation to continue working there (Borke My Heart)! I’m not much of a runner but I do take my dog on the bike path and I’ll ride while he runs until he’s tired then we’ll both walk back. I love all animals as if they are mines I get emotionally attached at first site and love and care for them like they are babies. I do currently work but I am very flexible with my hrs and will always be willing to work around my schedule to be with dogs and or cats. I have only trained 2 dogs in my entire life and only got as far as sit right and left paw stay walk and run. I will always have a huge heart for any animal including yours!!

“I hired Marijo for a dog walking and she was extremely responsive and flexible when it came to my pup. She provided updates and pictures to let me know he was enjoying his outside time. I highly recommend her with your pet!”
