Doggy Day Care in South Park, Buffalo, NY

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.

“Atlas enjoys his time with Crystal. He's always smiling in the photos! Thanks for taking great care of him!! Highly recommend Crystal for everyone's furbaby care!!”

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.

“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 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: I will take care of your best friend like they are mine! I’m very familiar with training puppies and taking medical care of the old little guys too. Administering medications is a breeze and wound care is something I can do with my eyes closed. We have a huge park behind us. I love a good walk/run with a doggo too. I will get on the floor and roll around with them too! I currently work part time so my schedule is pretty available. My husband works from home and is 100% open. We are also a team when it comes to pet care. I ask you bring your doggos favorite toys so that while inside, we are still entertained. There is a huge park behind us that allows ample space for walks/jogs/runs. Dogs will stay leashed at all times for safety. When they come back inside, Bella the cat will bathe them. She’s a 16 year old little lady who loves all animals. If you are brining your cat, Bella will show them the biscuit factory and give them showers as well. All animals are treated like a family member; with love and respect. All needs will be fulfilled

“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.”

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!

“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!”

About: Hi! I’m Sasha—a calm, attentive, and upbeat caregiver who adapts easily to each pet’s unique needs. I’m gentle and nurturing when animals need comfort, and energetic and playful when they’re ready for exercise and engagement. I work from home full-time and set my own schedule, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, regular walks, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. I’m an early riser (usually up by 6 a.m.) and love starting mornings with walks and fresh air before the day gets busy. I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 16 years old, including my own family dog, and I take pride in creating a safe, calm, and welcoming environment. My apartment has a spacious, open layout with minimal clutter—perfect for pets to relax and move comfortably. I’m also surrounded by green spaces and walking areas in my neighborhood, making daily exercise easy and enjoyable. During the winter months, my home is always warm and cozy, ensuring your pet stays comfortable year-round. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize their safety, happiness, and routine while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! Dog sitting fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I work from home full-time and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to plan my day around pets’ needs, including regular walks, potty breaks, feeding times, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I care for every pet as if they were my own, prioritizing their safety, comfort, and routine. Whether in my home or yours, I focus on maintaining consistency with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific care instructions you provide.

“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. 🐾💛”

“Lauren connected very well with my fur girl from the very beginning. Looking at the pictures that she share I could definitely see that being outside on the balcony with Lauren was one of her favorite times of her stay....as she took in the sights and sounds of the neighborhood along with catching a few rays!”

“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.”

“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.”

About: Hello! My name is Akeira and I have a passion for dog sitting! I love walking, playing, and overall interacting with dogs all around. The best times are the times with puppers! That being said, I’ll spoil your dog with treats, affection, play time and overall fun. I work from home, so if you need a pet sitter during the morning times, afternoon/evening times then I’ll be available. I am very flexible with sizing of dogs, weight and special attention if need be for a dog. We have a spacious back yard, so your dog would be able to run around and play till it’s hearts content. I currently have 3 animals in my home. My two cats Frank and Squeak and my dog, Eleanor. I do have 10+ years of experience with dog care and training. If you have any questions feel free to ask away! Thanks. I currently work from home, so I would be able to provide adequate attention to your pup and frequent outside potty and play breaks. If they are on a specific time routine for food, I will be able to give them their food at that time. I offer the utmost amount of love, play time and potty breaks in my home. I am a very extroverted, fun loving individual who LOVES caring for animals and providing a home away from home. Should you have any questions, my response time is very fast. I also love to take photos of pets, so you would definitely have updates of your pets while they are in my care.

“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.”

About: I have had dogs my entire life. All of my dogs are extremely spolied. I have extensive experience with all breeds and temperments. I have worked professionally with dogs in small and large (over 100 dogs) settings. I also have a canine behavior degree. I have hands on experience as well as a cerification for grooming. All kinds of dogs are welcome in my home, any size and any age. I have many repeat clients that I have been petsitting for years! My dogs and I spend hours everyday doing physical and mental stimulation, I would love to have yours join us. I am very flexible and can help you in any way you need; from walking and playing with your dog, to being their comfort when you need to travel or work. I can help with whatever your needs may be. Contact me if you are interested in what I can do! Thank you! ** Bathing pricing will depend on the size and coat condition of the dog** I do my best to keep them to the schedule they are used to with feeding times, rules, etc. We play in the yard for hours every day, in summertime the pool is out as well! I only accept evening drop off/ pick ups typically after 730. If you need accommodations to this please ask in advance. I do have a full time job but someone is home with the dogs most of the time. If we all need to leave for some reason, the dogs are separated accordingly. I have a fully fenced in yard. For walks I ensure all harnesses or collars are tight enough so they can not slip out. I take care of every dog as they are my own. I also provide updates and pictures of their vacation while you are on yours!

“Laura was amazing with my off the wall super energetic 3 month old springer spaniel puppy!! She is a super experienced trainer and was amazing at providing a balance between structure/close monitoring for safety and a lot of fun play time for my girl. She sent a lot of updates and advice that was very helpful for our training as well! Laura went above and beyond and even gave me tons of training tips outside of the visit because my pup is very difficult and has been struggling with separation anxiety. Best value out of a Rover stay I’ve ever gotten!”
