Doggy Day Care in Williamsville

“Jenn & Brian are really warm, friendly and welcoming. They’re really nice and we felt very comfortable while leaving milo at their place. I informed her about Milo’s neuter and she was really caring and kept sending updates about the stitches as well. I am from Chicago and sad that they’re in NY. If we are in same place I would send milo again and again to them whenever we go on a vacation. Best people ever! Highly Recommended.”

“Once again Katelynn did an update excellent job caring for Baxter. This was my first time with Daycare service through River and Katelynn kept Baxter for 7 hours and he loved every minute. I’d highly recommend her services”

“Crystal was great! I was sent a video of my dogs and another dog she was watching playing together and it gave so much ease. Picking them up, they were still the happy girls I know them to be and Crystal even took them for a walk with all the playing. More than I was expecting for just the day. Definitely will use her again when back in the area!!!”

“On our second visit with Alissa and Brett my dog stood up in the car looking out the window at their home and started wagging eager to exit the car! Thank you for lovingly caring for our dog!”

“My little Stella goes right to the car with her tail wagging excitedly every time she knows we are going to Katie's house for daycare! Katie takes care of all of Stella's needs and provides her care and entertainment while I am at work during the day. Katie has absolutely become Stella's auntie and I greatly appreciate the communication and photos she shares with me on a daily basis. Katie has been a life saver for me and I'm so grateful Rover connected us!!”

“This is my second time writing a review. Sarah is THAT astounding 🤩 I’m so grateful to have found her on this app. My fur baby always leaves so content and falls asleep right away because of how much Sarah plays with her and keeps her active during her stay. 10/10 would recommend Sarah to EVERYONE! ❤️🐕‍🦺”

“Beverly was great at communication and coordinating drop off/pick up, and helping to ensure that our dog adapt quickly to her place. We appreciate it! Thank you.”

“Laura was great! Very responsive and flexible and I got picture updates throughout the day. My dog had a blast!”

“Extra attention and care for my pup. Thanks Grace!”

“Karleigh is a pet person. She takes cares of all types of animals and is passionate in her work. I would highly recommend her as a pet caregiver.”

“Anna, Mattie and Stell took great care of Hugo for a long day when we were out of our house. You can tell this is a household who loves dogs, and we felt totally comfortable leaving Hugo in their care for the day. Hugo and Stella got along great and tired each other out with their playing. Very grateful to find someone to love our Hugo while we were away for a day!”

“Little Hunter was so tired out from all the fun he was having at Erica’s but VERY happy! I ABSOLUTELY recommend Erica, and will be bringing Hunter back to her!!”

“Laura was attentive and reassuring, even when we left my dog nervous in a new environment during a weekend trip! The backyard is great and she has a way with dogs”

About: . As cliché as it sounds , dogs are my life! I am passionate about the way they communicate. I highly enjoyed back when I volunteered at a foster rescue agency in Charlotte, NC. This opportunity polished my skill of handling myself in high pressure and high energy situations when it comes to dogs and cats. Working for Rover, growing up with dogs, and volunteering was another rewarding pet experience I had which gives you basic but hands on independent experience with clients and there furry loved ones. Rover is actually my main job. It’s enough to support yourself as well as I love the schedule flexibility. I am home most of the time and if I do leave it’s usually just to the grocery store or maybe to dinner. I love being home and watching TV or doing some type of new art. I’m studying to attend Animal Behavior College so I can train PTSD Service dogs and maybe even help socialize shelter pups. As I said I am home most of the time minus the normal grocery store run or what have you. They will get frequent potty breaks as well as a nighttime long walk to wind down so shall they stay overnight. If they have any problem areas,I like to dedicate a small slot of time to enrichment aka knowing as training time. Great way to help me practice as well as help any areas a part might need to work on… Not that they’re not perfect as is 😇. I’m a single mom who has my son by myself full-time however, please don’t think that will interrupt the level of care or undivided attention that your pup will have! My son loves animals he absolutely gets so excited whenever I have a client! Due to being a single mother, I am home full-time, and Rover as I said as my main job. Although I don’t even look at it as a job I seriously love what I do. Whenever I do have a client, I like to adapt to whatever your pups schedule is! I don’t mind getting up as early as 6 AM if that’s what they’re used to. I found that it’s better to keep them on the schedule that they have at home as it helps them acclimate to being away from home. I love my clients and I’m very signature with each one. I like to tailor my service based on the clients needs. For instance, if they are an anxious client with separation anxiety, I will sleep in the living room with them so they do not feel alone. I even like to do little blanket forts with my son and the client and that gives them a little den to feel safe in. If they don’t mind being in the bedroom they are more than welcome in there. I give each client free roam of my home. Whether you choose your home or mine, I will focus solely on making sure your fur baby is not only cared for, but stays entertained as well as meet all of their needs accurately and on time. What’s more is that my home is a calm, peaceful, spacious 4 bedroom with a good size backyard. In the backyard, I have a stake leash tie out so your pup can be secured since it’s not fully fenced in but they also will have about a 20 foot diameter to roam around and feel free. I never leave any client unattended out there however just for safety precautions. In my home, I have plenty of guest items in case you forget anything such as toys, food/water bowls, beds, even doggie sweaters in three different sizes for the colder months and doggy boots in two sizes in case it’s muddy/rainy! I offer meet and greets before the sitting so you and your fur baby can get comfortable and acclimated with myself and my home and I can then address any concerns and answer any questions you may have. During the meet and greet I will also ask YOU a few short yet detailed questions to make sure I take the utmost care of your fur baby while you’re away be it in your home or mine! Some of the questions include specific feeding times, vet & ICE information, favorite, toys, and games, and discuss any behavior issues or anxieties and how I can best comfort them! All pups get to go home with a thank you card and a new toy whether it’s a rope, ball, or squeaker depending on what their favorite is! As you’ll see, it’s an option to take care of your pup in your home if you’re more comfortable with that. When you book housesitting, this includes of course, first and foremost, taking care of your fur baby just the way I would at my house but also includes watering any plants, bringing in any packages or mail, and though it’s not specified through Rover, I like to go above and beyond, so I don’t mind doing any laundry or lighthouse cleaning. I assure you when you arrive home your home will be in the same if not better condition then you left it!

About: During summers while I was in high school I worked at horse boarding stables learning the basics of animal husbandry as well as medication administration for large animals, and this primed me to work with animals in the future. Following that, all through college I worked in animal welfare at my local Humane Society filling many positions. Positions ranging from volunteer, dog care attendant, triage, post surgical, and I finished out my time there as an animal control officer. When I wasn’t working at the shelter I was volunteering either bathing animals preparing them for adoption or just walking for miles and miles to make sure that they felt fulfilled when everyone went home at the end of the day. Post college I became deeply involved in animal behavior as well as sport training with my personal dog a German Shepherd who had a whole slew of issues when I first adopted her. I am no stranger to animals with behavioral issues or personal struggles. I welcome the opportunity to build relationships in a calm and constructive environment with all animals whether my personal pets or yours. I have dog sat for friends and coworkers for the last three years and I am excited to extend the offer to other members of the community. I prioritize building relationships with the animals in my care, be aware that any animal I am boarding will be in a home environment and will be treated just like my pet during the time that you were not there. If they are overstimulated too easily I do have a separate room designated only to dogs, where they can lay down in a quiet space away from other stimulation. I have a fenced in yard where we can play lots of fetch and tug or just sniff and chase the squirrels. If you can provide me with a list of tricks that your dog knows I would make sure to keep them mentally stimulated as well as physically during their stay here. My goal is to treat your pets as I treat mine. My schedule is two days on two days off with a sliding weekends long days but frequent days off. I am not the dog sitter for extended trips but I do have long weekends every other week. My schedule will not make me very marketable as a multi-day dog sitter, but it will work for some and those are the families that I hope to be able to assist. As it is I use Rover on my workdays to let my dog out in the afternoon for a potty breaks. Because I work 12 hour shifts if it is a workday I will not be taking boards. I have a fenced in yard and one dog in the home. If our dogs get along you can expect that they will be in the backyard playing fetch together or working through some tricks in the house so that everyone can nap well both physically and mentally exhausted. I do permit animals on the couch as long as they were respectful of space if I feel that dogs are getting too rowdy in the house I usually do let everyone go outside or mandate time to lay down and relax. I am fully able of providing meals on schedule as well as medication if need be , my personal dog only eats once a day in the evening. I have space to separate any animals who are feeling overwhelmed or would just like to relax on their own. I spend most of my days-off in the yard with my dog working on tricks and obedience playing with our ball or chasing sticks. We are avid hikers and if the weather permits I try to get us out on either trails or extended walks multiple times a week and if it’s an inside type of day, we are still working obedience and I’ll keep a cup of her dog food out set aside during the day so that I can play brain games with her and reward her freely.

“Alyssa is a kind and compassionate person who would be an excellent pet caregiver. I've known Alyssa for 7 years and have seen the gentle and loving way that she interacts not only with her pets, but with others as well. While my family was on vacation for a week, she stayed at my house and cared for my four dogs and cat and when we returned, it was clear that they were well taken care of during our trip. She is knowledgeable about animals and I have no doubt that she would be both a responsible and caring pet caregiver.”

“I have a black lab Australian shepherd mix, when Nina is around I don’t worry about him. She’s not only a wonderful caretaker of him, he loves when she is around. She makes sure he gets his medicine, takes him out, gets him exercise. Like I said, I don’t worry about my pet when Nina is around. She’ll do a wonderful job on Rover.”

“Erin was great to work with re scheduling. She was welcoming to me and my pup and helped us both settle (my first Rover experience). My dog relaxed, started playing with people, checking out toys, exploring. Erin has a large open back yard for games and sniffing. Everything went great adn my pup was happy when I picked her up. I would ask Erin to sit again! thanks!”

“Madeline is a very caring ,gentle ,kind and sweet young woman . She helped me with my kitty Molly, who is shy and terrified of new people. Maddy took her time and helped Molly trust her . Maddy is responsible, and trustworthy! I think Madeleine Is the best!”

“Great experience. Would definitely use her again.”
