FIRST TIME WITH US?
SCHEDULE A MEET & GREET
At Fetch N’ Catch, safety comes first! That’s why every dog must complete a Meet & Greet before joining our daycare, boarding, or day school. This allows us to get to know your dog, assess their interactions with others, and ensure they feel comfortable in our environment. Dogs participating in group play need to be social, respect boundaries, and understand social cues. If your dog needs more time, we may recommend smaller social sessions before full daycare. The Meet & Greet takes 30 minutes and has a $35 fee. Once approved, your dog’s first daycare day is free!
Call us at (716) 901-7618 to schedule a Meet & Greet! We can’t wait to welcome you and your furry family member!

About Cheektowaga, NY
Cheektowaga is a town in Erie County, New York. As of the 2020 census, the town had a population of 89,877. It is in the north-central part of the county and is an inner-ring suburb of Buffalo. The town is the second-largest suburb of Buffalo after the Town of Amherst.
The town of Cheektowaga contains the village of Sloan and half of the village of Depew. The remainder, outside the villages, is a census-designated place also named Cheektowaga. The town is home to the Buffalo Niagara International Airport, Erie County’s principal airport.
Villa Maria College, Empire State University, and the Walden Galleria are in Cheektowaga.
Cheektowaga’s earliest known historic occupants were the Iroquoian-speaking Neutral people. They were pushed out by the more powerful Seneca people, who named this site Chictawauga, meaning “land of the crabapples” in the Seneca language.
Originally a rural farming area, the town was extensively developed for suburban housing during the post-World War II subdivision boom of the 1950s. Aided as well by the construction of highways to serve the area, factories such as the Westinghouse Electric Corporation plant on Genesee Street were built here (since demolished). The plant generated employment in the area for many decades. The town maintains a strong blue-collar presence. Cheektowaga has a large Polish-American community, many of whom relocated from Buffalo’s East Side.
Cheektowaga lies within the major Lake-Effect Snow band that frequently impacts the region. It has been affected by historic Snow events, including the Blizzard of ’77, the Blizzard of ’85, “The October Surprise,” “Snowvember,” and the 2022 Christmas Blizzard.
