About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, so taking care of them just comes naturally to me. I also volunteer at local shelters, which has helped me learn how to handle all kinds of dogs with different personalities. I’m really patient and pay attention to what each dog needs, so they feel comfortable and cared for. Pet care fits really easily into my week since I’m currently out of school, so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I’m available most days and can adjust to what your dog needs, whether that’s regular walks or last-minute help I basically treat your home and pet like my own. I follow your routine, make sure your pet gets everything they need, and spend time with them so they’re not stressed or lonely. I also keep you updated so you know how everything’s going.

As a teacher aide with summers off, I will have almost complete availability over summer. I am flexible and willing to work with you to figure out what will work best for I can comfortably handle different types of animals with my 2+ years of experience owning my own (cats, dogs, gerbils, hamsters, etc) and working with different species, as well as training dogs at my previous job as a PetSmart worker for 3+ years!

About: With 15 years of pet care experience, I’m dependable and attentive. I make sure every dog or cat feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for. My schedule is very flexible and open, so I can easily fit in walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays whenever needed. I plan around each pet’s routine. I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect as my own. I follow any instructions or schedules closely, and make sure pets feel safe and comfortable.

About: I have been fortunate enough to have had animals most of my life. These have ranged from dogs, rabbits, chickens, horses, cows, and fish. I have volunteered time at a wildlife rehab and also worked a few years at a dog daycare facility that would average about 50 dogs a day. I have a bachelors degree in Animal behavior, ecology and conservation. I have always had a special place in my heart for animals. I currently have 2 rabbits and a dog. I am a substitute teacher so my schedule is rather flexible. It allows me to arrange my week how I need it. My afternoons are usually pretty open. I will ensure that each pet is safe, secure and well taken care of in the comfort of their own home while providing updates to their families.

“I highly recommend Nikki.”

About: I’ve been dog and cat sitting (all different breeds) for friends and family over the past couple years, either in their home or my own. I am a figure skating and hockey coach. This requires me to be at the rink for 3-4 hours a day, generally in the afternoon/early evening. All of the office work that I do for it can be completed from home. I have a cat in my own home. If I’m ever to have dogs there, I put him downstairs with his litter box and food so that we don’t have to worry about the pets not getting along.

“Once again, Jessica was fantastic! We are so happy we booked her to watch our 16 year old dog. She sent daily photos, updates, and was easy to communicate with. Jessica made sure to give our old pup her meds every day, and gave her extra love. Neela was very happy and comfortable in our own home. We were so pleased. Thank you!”

About: I have over 12 years of experience caring for my own dog, which has given me a strong understanding of routines, behavior, and overall pet health. I have also provided puppy sitting and in-home dog sitting for extended periods where I maintained feeding schedules (including administering medication), exercise routines, and a safe, comfortable environment. I am attentive to each dog's individual needs and ensure they are well cared for while their owners are away. Additionally, I have worked at Pet Supplies Plus for over 3 years which has further strengthened my knowledge of pet care and animal needs. I'm currently enrolled at Nazareth University and am available to care for pets around my schedule. I am available Mondays and Wednesdays 6:00 AM-9:30 AM, Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8:00 AM-5 PM. Weekend availability may vary, but I'm happy to discuss scheduling in advance. When caring for pets through walks and drop-in visits I work on keeping their routines consistent and stress-free. During walks, I make sure dogs are getting safe, enjoyable exercise, while paying close attention to surroundings and behavior. For drop-in visits I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, replenishing water, administering medication if needed, and giving pets plenty of attention and playtime. I also make sure pet's spaces are clean and comfortable before I leave, and provide updates and photos after each visit so owners feel confident and at ease.

About: Caring for animals has been a lifelong passion of mine. Growing up, my family and I regularly took in sick, injured, or abandoned animals, nursing them back to health and giving them the love they needed to thrive. This early experience taught me not only the basics of pet care, but also the patience, compassion, and attentiveness it takes to truly understand an animal’s needs. While I love all creatures, I have a special connection with cats and dogs, and nothing brings me more joy than making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, administering medication, or just giving them some extra love, I take pride in treating every animal as if they were my own. I am a business owner who works remote - which makes fitting pet care into my schedule fairly easy. So long as I have a day or so for notice and am not currently booked with anyone else, I can typically make myself available. I can easily provide my services in your home in order to ensure the comfort of your pets. I’m happy to take them outside to play, go for walks, feed them, snuggle them, and ensure litter boxes and yards are cleaned up during my visit.

About: As a dog mom to a high-energy German Shepherd/Husky mix, I’m very familiar with big dogs who need lots of exercise and structure. I also have experience caring for cats and horses, and I’m comfortable with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and routines. As a Registered Dietitian with a special interest in canine nutrition, I care deeply about supporting pets’ health from the inside out! As a remote dietitian with a passion for animals, wellness, and staying active, dog walking fits perfectly into my flexible schedule and aligns with everything I love: movement, fresh air, and caring for animals. I’m currently pursuing dog nutrition training because I believe in supporting pets with natural, nourishing care. Whether it’s a walk or some extra playtime, I treat every dog like my own and make sure they feel happy, healthy, and loved. I follow your routine closely to help your pet feel secure and comfortable. I’m experienced with pets of all sizes and temperaments and always use positive reinforcement and gentle handling. You can count on me to respect your home, communicate clearly, and treat your pet like family.

About: Thank you for giving me a chance to care for and walk your pet. I am passionate about caring for your pet as if they were my own. I have taken care of others pets for the past 12 years. I currently have my own dog, and cat that I love. I know how to care for all ages of dogs and cats, as well as have administered medication to both before in case that is needed while you are away during the day or on weekends. Pets to me are the best friends a human can have. I hope to hear from you soon about your pets and your caring needs. My schedule varies from week to week but no worries, I have it two weeks in advance so we can definitely plan your pups needs into my day. I currently have a dog friendly pup who can help keep your pup entertained if needed. I will care for your pets needs as if they were my own.

About: I have been in the animal field for as long as I can remember. When I was younger I took care of horses and volunteered at the Erie County Fair in the horse barn there. After high school in 2016, I became a dog Groomer and worked at Best In Show Dog Grooming as one of the top pet stylists. When Covid hit I decided I wanted to go back to school so I dropped down to part time and am currently in my third year at Medaille College to become a Veterinarian Technician. About a year ago I gave up my job as a Dog Groomer to work in a Veterinarian hospital and now I am currently a Veterinarian Assistant. I have a dog of my own her name is Ruby and she is an 80lb Saint Bernard, Akita mix. I also have three cats name Gypsy, Pippin, and Shaggy. There is no pet too big or strong, I am use to the big guys. I am currently working part-time at the Veterinarian Hospital and I am on break from school until August 30th. Even when I go back to school I will be able to check on your fur babies. My dog is super friendly and will keep your pet occupied if you're okay with it. I will definitely ask permission before introducing. I will also take your fur baby for a walk, feed them, give them love for you when you're away, and make sure they have everything they need.

About: I love dogs and had one for 17 years! Our good boy recently crossed the rainbow bridge and we miss him so much. I have experience with young dogs, but also with senior dogs I am currently available during the day every weekday, so whether it’s an early morning or late afternoon walk, I can be there no problem! I treat every dog like my own and give them as long as a walk as they prefer or as many pets as they desire!
