About: I have owned dogs on and off since I was 8 years old and helped take care of all their basic needs. I currently care for my baby girl Skye who is a rescue and I have helped her come a long way from being scared and untrusting of humans to loving and trusting myself. I am currently a full time stay at home dad and do Uber/Lyft in my free time so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups all day long. I am available throughout the week to board and take care of your dogs. I have a lead in my front yard that I use to take my dog Skye out on. My dog Skye is very dog friendly and loves to play with others. I also have a dog stroller for smaller dogs that may not like going on walks but needs the fresh air.
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.
“Ian is great with our girls. They have nothing but smiles after every walk with him and he is always so helpful when we find ourselves in a pinch, from giving the girls another walk when we where stuck at the airport to even learning how to feed our bearded dragons for when we go on vacation. We are very very happy with Ian and will continue to book with him for sure.”
“Christina was great with my dog Dexter. She came on time and she updated me throughout the walk and she also sent me pictures which was really nice. I highly recommend her!!”
About: Hi fellow dog lovers, my name is Rocky, a 25 yo male college undergrad that just moved here to buffalo. I’m originally from New Orleans Louisana. I come from a home of two shih-tzu dogs, (Popsicle and Levi), which I had to leave behind with my mom and sister. I enjoyed walking, feeding, stimulating, and just being all around loved by my two best friends. And I am looking to explore the same opportunities with your beloved pet. I promise to give the upmost care and attention that your pet deserves. Pick me as your personal rover walker or sitter, and let the worries go. You will come home to a relaxed, well excercised, and already gone for a potty, loving dog. That is my promise.
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats, starting from my teenage years when I regularly sat for neighbors’ dogs and filled in for friends who provided pet care.

I provide attentive walks, timely feeding, playtime, and lots of gentle affection. I’m mindful of each pet’s unique needs and personality, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away.
