“Sophie was amazing!! I have an 80lb lab that is pretty high energy with some medical needs. I booked Sophie for drop in visits for 4 days. Sophie was incredibly thorough in her preparation, attention to detail, and communication. She took my dog to the park everyday, sent multiple pictures, and was very intentional about making sure my dog did not get over-heated outside with the current heat wave. If you're looking for someone to treat your pup like they're a VIP at the Four Seasons, book Sophie!”
About: I have taken care of my own dogs and cats my entire life and cannot remember a time I didn't love them all. My cat is no longer with me but I still have dogs and would love to care for your pets as I currently do my own. I can handle big dogs and little dogs as well as am willing to clean out your cats litterboxes. I'm happy to tussle with big dogs and take naps with lap dogs anytime! I'm a college student looking for work over the breaks and any pet time over the semester as I'll be away from my own. I'm happy to work around my class schedule to be with your pets as much as possible. I have a mostly fenced yard with the only opening being the driveway but intend to do walks and keep pets leashed just for safety. My own home has two dogs that are great with other dogs, both of them being on the smaller side and great with people as well. When I'm up at school there will be no other pets up there and the space will be fully for your pets. I'm also able to do house sitting, walks, and drop-ins for your pets to make sure your pets are getting love and attention when you're away.
About: I have taken care of two smaller dogs the past 3 years and have learned the hard work that comes with them. I have also volunteered at BARCS for dog days out. I am comfortable with leash trained dogs and understand feeding schedules, potty breaks, and playtime. Hello! I am currently a college student working a part-time internship and taking a summer class! I am often available on weekends and monday, wednesday, and friday nights. I know how to crate dogs if needed and have reliable transportation to an emergency vet if needed. I have grown up around cats and dogs all my life so I understand the importance of keeping your pet safe.
“I can always rely on Danielle to respond quickly. She’s reliable and is a HUGE stress reliever knowing that my pup is being well taken care of. I’ve rebooked her numerous times now, and she has never disappointed”
“Sitter was great. Used them for some time and you can really tell when you get home and your pet isn’t bouncing off the walls. She even came a day early when we had a friend that couldn’t stop by. Booked her on short notice and lots of photos which my kids loved. Thank you.”
“Susan did a great job taking care of our two dogs while we were away. We felt totally confident in her ability to care for our pets. I highly recommend Susan for your pet care needs!”
“Shania did a really wonderful job for our cats and was really flexible and understanding of our complicated routine. She was super communicative during the visits and had to adjust on the fly for us, and she took it all completely in stride. Highly recommend her! Thank you so much again!!!”
About: I’ve been caring for my dogs for about 9 years now, and they truly are my babies!! I currently have a Siberian Husky and a German Shepherd, and we recently added a Golden Retriever puppy to the family!! So my puppy skills are definitely fresh right now 😊 I’m very used to high energy dogs, lots of playtime, long walks, mental enrichment, cuddle sessions, and making sure every pup feels safe, happy, and loved. Whether your dog is super playful, shy, or just wants extra TLC, I’ll always treat them like one of my own. I recently graduated from UB with my bachelor's degree and am currently in the process of applying for jobs! That means I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time throughout the week, so I’m typically available whenever you need care. I’m happy to work around your schedule and make things as easy as possible for both you and your pup. Your pup's safety and comfort are always my number one priority. I make sure to follow your instructions exactly, whether that’s feeding routines, walks, meds, or small things that help your dog feel at ease. I’m very mindful during walks and outdoor time, always keeping dogs securely leashed and being 100% aware of our surroundings. When I’m in your home, I respect it like it’s my own space. I keep everything clean, double check doors and gates, and make sure your pup is safe and settled before I ever step out.
“Arrived home to a very happy cat thanks to Fallon! I appreciated that she was able to come by ahead of time for a meet and greet and loved all the photos of my cat from her visit.”
“Janine was excellent. She took great care of our two kitties and sent lots of pictures for us. She was also very accommodating when it came to giving her my key before we left. I would definitely book with Janine again!”
“Sean was everything you could hope for when traveling without your pet. He was very communicative, prompt and professional and left us feeling that Ellie was in great hands.”

“Samantha was a great repeat walker for us! AlaHs responsive, and she followed my pedantic neighborhood dog rules to a T (again lol I'm so sorry but great work), avoiding the houses she had to avoid, etc. I would trust her again!”
“Amanda provided excellent service taking care of our animals, and was especially attentive to our cat’s medicine regime. Communication was constant and clear, and she was more than reliable throughout the stay. Thank you Amanda!”

Wakefield pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sophie is amazing! We totally forgot to book someone for our sweet Asher, Sophie was super responsive, and was able to help in a pinch, because of our mix up. She’s always great with Asher, provides plenty of photos and he loves hanging out with her! 100% recommended!
Erika was wonderful with my two kitties! They were going through a finicky stage so I had to transition them to a raw diet which was a bit detailed. Erika followed everything to the letter! I love that she sent me daily photos. It was very much appreciated! Thank you Erika for giving the love and care ❤️
Anna is for real, the best! Every time we need to leave our boys at home we ask her to watch them because we love her so much! She’s always on time, sends lots of pictures, and takes care of our furry guys like they were her own. We would pick Anna over any other pet sitter or kennel every time.
Susan is our go to. She’s basically our pets’ god mother 🤣. Not only is she a phenomenal pet sitter with cute pics and updates.. But her knowledge of animal behavior is impeccable. 100/10 recommend her to pet sit as well as training sessions. She’s been with us since we first brought our puppy home and has made such a positive impact on her behavior. I always tell my friends/family about her!❤️
Shakiyla was an absolutely fantastic sitter! She is so knowledgeable about how to care for a big, very loving but also high energy dog like my Alba, and I felt very comfortable knowing my baby was in her care while i was so far away. She is professional, kind, responsive, and an excellent trainer as well, and I will absolutely be requesting her services in the future. Highly recommend, especially if you have a bully breed dog!
