“I had a great experience with John. I booked on short notice and he was very flexible with scheduling, which I really appreciated. He took excellent care of Carl while I was away and gave me real peace of mind the entire time. Communication was solid, and I received updates throughout Carl’s stay — it was clear he was being very well looked after. When I picked him up, he was calm, healthy, and completely himself, which tells you everything you need to know about the level of care he provides. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with John again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter.”
“Heather and her family were so sweet with my Buzz! I’ve had the same dog sitter for years, so I was nervous when I suddenly needed to find someone new. From the start, they were incredibly kind, caring, and attentive with him, which gave me so much peace of mind and allowed me to truly enjoy my trip. They also have an amazing backyard where Buzz could run around, play, and make himself at home. I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. I highly recommend Heather and will absolutely be using her again!”
“I am very thankful and appreciative for your care and love for my dog. I really enjoyed receiving photos and update while I was away, that really eased my mind. I highly recommend !”
“Amy was wonderful with our dog Jack. He’s an anxious dog who takes a little time to get to know new people and Amy was extremely patient and accommodating. We really appreciate a home where Jack feels comfortable and it took very little time for Jack to feel comfortable with Amy and her family. We will be booking again for our summer vacation boarding needs.”
“Cosmo had a wonderful time with Sriram and his family. We got regular updates including photos. They were very flexible to accommodate all our requests to keep him and us at ease. We will certainly send Cosmo back to them whenever we need boarding for him. Highly recommend them.”
“I am very happy with Caroline, she was very welcoming and we did a visit before actual booking. This was my fist time using this service. I definitely RECOMMEND booking Caroline she was amazing she sends plenty of updates and photos. My Hart had an awesome time. Thank you Caroline you are the best.❤️❤️👏🏽👏🏽”
“We are so grateful for Jaina! She took wonderful care of BOTH my large pups on short notice. The minute my dogs arrived at Jaina's house for our meet and greet, they were sniffing every inch of space. Jaina was warm and welcoming, allowing them to run all over both floors of her home and explore her huge backyard. I could see she truly understood dogs and knew they would be safe and happy with her. Jaine provided my high energy dogs with lots of play, stimulation, and cuddles. She was patient and nurturing and provided me with updates, photos and videos. One of my pups was wailing and refusing to get in the car when it was time to leave Jaina's. What a wonderful experience!”
“Dee is a gentle, kind, responsible and calm person who clearly loves dogs. In fact I might even call her a dog whisperer after watching our little pug Mae jump in her arms the first time they met. My family and I enjoyed a wonderful two week vacation and at no time were we worried about the well-being of our dog who was safe and well cared for in a happy home, with a great yard. Dee was at all times responsive to our texts and sent pictures every day. We will use her again and again.”
“This past weekend, Desi and Marilyn watched our sweet pup Maddie who is disabled. She is paralyzed from the waist down and can only walk with the help of wheels. We have never left her in anyone’s care. From the start, both Desi and Marilyn made us feel so comfortable with leaving her in their care. Throughout the weekend, they sent updates with pictures and videos of Maddie. They made us feel so at ease and relieved, we really appreciated all they did. When we picked Maddie up, she was happy and we could tell she had been very well cared for. We would recommend Desi and Marilyn as dog sitters for anyone’s beloved pup!! They are fantastic people and full of love and compassion for all types of dogs.”
“awesome awesome. Awesome. Manuel made my two boys first time with the sitter and awesome experience. He was very attentive and has a calming presence that works well with the animals. We will definitely be back. Thanks again.”
“Jennifer is so great with Brioche. She is kind and patient and takes the best pictures, letting me know Brioche loves being in her care. Brioche is a tough dog, due to his special needs but Jennifer is someone id trust him with 10x over. Thank you!”
“Taylor was AMAZING! It was my first time leaving my baby so I was super anxious especially because he is primarily pee pad trained , a ball of energy and only eats cooked food ! She was SUPER understanding and flexible. Taylor kept me updated and my baby loves her ! He usually has separation anxiety but he did so well with her ! Can’t wait to book her again 10/10! Teddy and I appreciate Taylor a TON”
“Shaun was so great with Scout! Sent helpful updates and Scout seemed so happy when I picked her up after four nights away. Would definitely recommend and I know Scout can’t wait to go back.”
“Melanie has watched our Bella twice, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she provided! She is incredibly kind, caring, reliable, and attentive. Bella was comfortable and happy in her care. We felt completely at ease knowing Bella was in such loving and capable hands. It means so much to have someone we can truly trust with our furry family member. We would absolutely recommend M to anyone looking for a wonderful and dependable dog sitter!”
“Faith was an amazing choice to look after my dog! She was very flexible with me needing someone at the last minute. During the stay she kept me updated with lots of pictures! I will definitely go to her next time I need a sitter.”
“Funda and family took such great care of Summer while we were away for a long weekend. They were super communicative, and kept us updated with pictures and videos every day. Summer had the best time, especially exercising in the big backyard. We’d leave Summer with Funda and family in a heartbeat, and I know she’d be excited to hang with them again too!”
“Najja is amazing! She’s very reliable, trustworthy, and always comes through for me, even when I need someone on short notice. I feel completely comfortable leaving my dog in her care, and I know he’s always well taken care of. I truly appreciate how dependable and accommodating she is. I definitely recommend Najja to anyone looking for someone caring and reliable to watch their fur baby!”

I have used Tracy and Steve multiple times and every time Django comes back happy and relaxed. This time they had the unique experience of caring for Nonny… Who is a very “special dog”. They were patient and kind with her and it gave me great confidence in their care! Will book again 🥰
Pooja watched our dog Pepper for the weekend and she was amazing! She was a great communicator, consistently sharing updates and photos which was very much appreciated. She followed all our requests and we can tell Pepper really enjoyed spending time with her. Pepper can't wait for his next visit!
The best boarding I’ve had thus far! I was super emotional leaving my little guy behind for 9 nights but Darien immediately sent me videos and pictures and made me feel like I could trust her. 10/10 service, Darien and her family went above and beyond when it came to my frenchie baby. The bath before pickup was also amazing, icing on the cake! I will definitely be using her services again.
John was a delight, my fur baby PJ stayed a week with him and had a great time during playtime and the daily walks. It was so reassuring to know PJ was in good hands. He sent pictures throughout to show me how much fun they wsre having. I've already booked him for another stay.
Veronica took great care of my Nutmeg! Knowing I was going to be away for two weeks, I was nervous about leaving her at a boarding facility where she's been stressed when I've taken shorter trips. After a meet & greet, I was already at ease. In addition to loving my sweet, old girl, I also received photo, and text updates. I'm so thankful I found Veronica, and look forward to future trips where I'll know Nutmeg is loved, and care for.
Leaving Rosie with Vanessa and her family while we were away for our wedding and honeymoon was one of the best decisions we made. From the moment she arrived, Rosie was beyond excited to be there and was treated like part of the family. Vanessa kept us updated with so many photos and videos of Rosie playing, relaxing, and clearly having the best time. It made being away from our girl so much easier and gave us complete peace of mind knowing she was so loved and well cared for. We could truly enjoy our wedding and honeymoon without worrying for a second. We’re incredibly grateful for the kindness, communication, and genuine care Vanessa and her family showed Rosie. We wouldn’t hesitate to trust them again and recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional pet care!
Our dog, Coach, had a dream stay with Kristen over Christmas. He was treated like royalty. She handled his food and meds like the pro she is, but also carved out a path for him so he wouldn’t have to walk on the snow. She sent several videos a day, he looked SO happy. Can’t wait for the next opportunity to board him at Kristen’s house. He looked like he didn’t want to leave!!

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Caldwell home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Caldwell.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Caldwell sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NJ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
