Hi I’m Charles! I have a 1 year old French bulldog named Frankie and my family has had dog breeds of several shapes and sizes. I love to get out with pups and have a good time in the fresh air, and am always down for some walks so I’d be glad to take your pup for one too. Something I’m pretty good at is getting even the laziest dogs to be happy and excited, some just need a little energy to get them going, I know my Frenchie does!

Hi I'm Quinn! Doggy dad to Hercules & Khal (2 toy poodles)! I have always loved dogs and been around them all my life! I also enjoy being physically active and would love to take your dog on long walks and can confidently handle any size of dog! I know from experience how important your dog is to you and I will treat them as if they were my own!

Taking time from my University studies to rejuvenate and travel, dog walking with Wag allows me to earn a little extra! I was four years old when I began training our family dog. I was home alone for a few hours and crafted a special bond with our purebred Rottweiler named Zeus. Sometimes I get along better with animals than people, probably because my family has always bred dogs and treated them as part of the family. Wag is an amazing way for me to blend both my love for exercise and dogs!

Hello Dog Moms and Dads! My name is Mallory and I am a lover of all animals, especially dogs. I have been dog sitting for over 5 years now and absolutely love it! I can't wait to give your dog the 5 star dog walking treatment while you are away!
Background Checked
I grew up in a home that always had at least 1 dog - my parents seemed to favor golden retrievers. I have over 7 years of dog sitting experience ranging from small dogs like a cockapoo to larger dogs like labs. I love them all equally! I love that every dog has their own personality and different interests. I’m looking forward to taking your beloved pet out for some fresh air and fun!

“I can’t wait to meet your best friend!”
Hi! I grew up in Pittsburgh, PA, alongside dogs and other furry friends. I now live in Edinboro with my own pup, Sadie, while I attend graduate school. She’s my best friend, but there’s always room in my heart for more dogs! I think dogs are the kindest, purest creatures, and keeping them happy and safe keeps me happy! I can’t wait to meet your best friends!

Hi, I'm Molly! I live in Spring, Texas and am basically convinced that dogs are the best thing that's ever happened to mankind. I had the opportunity to volunteer in shelters while in college at TAMU (whoop!). I then graduated to fostering and now have three adopted pups of my own (Odin, Maximus, and Astro). I am a lover of ALL dogs and can't wait to meet your best friend!

Dog Boarding in Erie
BYC spays and neuters all of their incoming pets in an effort to curtail the pet overpopulation.
The dogs that enter into Because You Care often come from neglectful or abusive homes. By opening your home to another soul that has the capacity to love his human beyond limits - you are telling that animal that they matter. If you are ready to make this commitment and change an abused animal's life forever, please contact the shelter and staff at BYC. There are so many pets waiting for their second chance.
Before your potential adoption is final, the pet will receive all necessary medical care and someone from the staff of BYC will perform a few home visits. This is necessary to make sure your home environment is safe and suitable for a new addition and for them to be sure the dog you want to adopt is the right dog for you and your family.
If you would like to volunteer at the rescue or become a potential foster family, contact Because You Care's staff. They will be grateful for your assistance. If you are able to make a donation of cleaning supplies, food, toys, treats and other necessary items, or a monetary donation, again the rescue will be grateful for whatever you can give. Loving animals is easy; being their voice and advocating for their safety and lives is much more difficult and time-consuming. Please do what you can for the love of animals all over the world.
