With dozens of well-kept dog parks and breathtaking natural attractions, Buffalo, NY is a "grrreat" place for pups and people to live. The city is a hub of international trade and commerce, which means the locals hustle hard. (And they play hard, too — unlike many cities in the US, Buffalo's nightclubs don't close until 4 AM!)
While the pet parents of Buffalo work and play, who's taking care of their loyal pups? Dedicated Pet Caregivers like Janet, a Buffalo, NY dog walker who’s been walking dogs on the Wag! platform since 2019. In her time on the Wag! platform, Janet has completed more than 1,700 pet care services, and her overall rating is a "pawfect" 5 out of 5 stars.
Here's a series of fun questions we asked Janet to get to know her better.
The Pet Caregiver Spotlight Interview
Hi Janet. What inspired you to sign up to work with Wag!?
Janet: I love dogs and thought that working for Wag! would be a wonderful way to meet new dogs and bring some joy to their day while their humans are busy.
Do you have any dogs of your own or have you had in the past?
Janet: I have one senior rescue dog named Goldie. Our family dog, Dorothy, crossed the rainbow bridge in 2016.
What’s your favorite thing about Sitting with Wag!?
Janet: I love really getting to know my client and provide him or her with a great time while his/her humans are away on vacation or busy with work.
Hardest part about sitting dogs?
Janet: The hardest part about sitting dogs is saying goodbye!
How do you prepare for your dog sitting services?
Janet: To prepare for dog sitting services, I always reach out to the parent in the Wag! chat to learn as much as possible about their dog’s likes and dislikes.
If you could give any advice to a brand new Pet Caregiver, what would it be?
Janet: My advice to a brand new Pet Caregiver is to always communicate with the parent. Safety and happiness are so important for your client and asking questions or sharing concerns with the Pet Parent is extremely beneficial to creating a wonderful experience!
Are you native to Buffalo? If not, where are you from?
Janet: I am from Buffalo, NY but also lived for many years in Boston, MA.
What’s your story?
Janet: I am a retired teacher and love all of my clients with Wag!. I have always loved animals — especially dogs!
What do you do in your free time?
Janet: In my free time, I enjoy reading, listening to music and nature walks.
Where is your happy place?
Janet: My happy place is home relaxing with my dog.
