About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I’ve spent years caring for my own dog, who experiences seizures, and my senior cat, whom I lovingly cared for through his final years. These experiences taught me the importance of patience, attentiveness, and understanding that every pet has their own needs and personality. My passion for animals has also led me to pursue extensive academic and hands-on experience. I studied veterinary medicine throughout high school, completed an intensive summer program at Cornell’s College of Veterinary Medicine, earned a biology degree, and most recently interned rehabilitating New Jersey wildlife. I’m comfortable reading body language, recognizing concerning symptoms, administering medications, and providing canine and feline first aid and CPR. I’m detail-oriented and attentive to each pet’s needs, while also loving to play with energetic pets and keep them happy, engaged, and exercised! I’m available 7 days a week, day and night, for boarding clients, so your pet will have plenty of company and attention throughout their stay. I keep feeding and bathroom breaks consistent with their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and settled. We’ll typically go for a walk after lunch, with additional activity based on your pet’s needs. Playtime is tailored to their temperament and mood; whether they’re energetic and ready to play, or prefer some quiet cuddles and downtime. My goal is to keep their routine familiar, comfortable, and fun while they’re away from home. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have an unfenced yard, so all outdoor time is kept safely on leash. Pets are supervised closely throughout their stay, and I’m happy to use their crate if one is provided and it’s part of their normal routine. I also have a portable pet gate that can be used to safely section off the kitchen or stairs when needed. I want every pet to feel comfortable, secure, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind that their pets are in a safe and attentive environment.

About: Good Morning! I am Janiya and I’m excited to introduce myself! As an animal science graduate student, my journey with dogs began at a young age. I have been caring for my own dogs since I was just 10 years old, which has given me a deep understanding of canine behavior and needs. My academic background in animal science has equipped me with a solid foundation in animal care, health, and behavior. Through my coursework, I have gained insights into various aspects of veterinary medicine, nutrition, and training techniques. This knowledge allows me to provide not only basic care but also specialized attention tailored to each dog's unique requirements. In addition to my studies, I actively engage in clinical hours at a local veterinary clinic under the guidance of a certified veterinarian and vet tech. This hands on experience is invaluable. It has allowed me to observe and participate in real-world scenarios involving pet health care. From administering medications to understanding common health issues, this practical exposure enhances my ability to recognize signs of distress or illness in dogs while I am sitting or walking them. I’m currently working during the week so I’m available currently on the weekends anytime and will update my hours if need be due to obtaining a set schedule for clinical hours. I believe establishing a consistent daily routine is crucial for both dogs. This includes regular feeding times, exercise, and bathroom breaks. For my husky, who is energetic and playful, I ensure she gets at least an hour of vigorous exercise each day. This includes walks, runs, or playtime in the yard. My cockapoo also enjoys playtime but requires slightly less intense activity due to his smaller size and older age. I ensure that my home environment is safe for both dogs by removing hazardous items such as toxic plants or small objects they could swallow inside and outside. Additionally, I use baby gates if necessary to restrict access to certain areas of the house where they might get into trouble. I have learned by following these steps consistently in caring for my husky and cockapoo at home, and applying similar principles when caring for clients' pets, I’ll create a nurturing environment that supports their health and happiness.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience. I currently serve as an active board member for a non-profit rescue and have a passion for providing attentive, reliable care to every pet like they’re my own. I have experience with medication administration, basic veterinary care, and handling animals with different personalities and needs. At home, I have my Aussie, Harley, plus a fully fenced one-acre yard perfect for safe play and exercise. I’m active, dependable, and excited to provide loving care! I currently have a flexible work schedule with ability to WFH. Walks available weekdays and weekends and boarding available in my home ! ! ! My yard is about a half acre fully fenced in, trails behind which I am able to take dogs on walks and a quiet private cul de sac for walks. I have a 5yr old Australian Shepherd who is very playful and always looking for friends , but is respectful of the boundaries of another dog if they do not like to play.

About: Though I'm relatively new to the *professional* pet care world, I've pet- and house-sat countless times for friends and family. From dogs and cats to lizards and rats, I've taken care of most types of pets, and love learning about animals of all sorts. I'll put in the time to learn your specific pets' needs and wants to ensure they get the best care possible. I've worked with children with special needs, people with dementia, and early-morning commuters, so I've got more than enough patience to help even the grumpiest of cats take their medicine, get their exercise, whatever they need to stay happy and healthy while you're away. I'm a self-employed artist, so my work comes with me wherever I go in the form of a sketchbook, pen case, phone, and planner. Taking care of your furry (or scaly, or feathered!) family fits right in to my workflow. I have my own pets at home, a ferret named Onion and a tabby named Bean. I've traveled long distances with both of them, so I am well trained at keeping an eye out for health and safety in stressful times. Don't worry though, they'll be staying put, cozy at home with my partner for the foreseeable future.

“Rob was truly exceptional, and we couldn’t recommend him more highly. He watched our two girls for 9 days, and from start to finish, he went above and beyond in every possible way. He took incredible care of both dogs, even going so far as to buy them extra-special treats to celebrate their birthdays while we were away which was such a thoughtful and unexpected gesture that meant so much to us. Our dog Winnie has anxiety, especially during bad weather, and Rob was unbelievably patient, attentive, and gentle with her. Knowing she was in such caring, capable hands gave us complete peace of mind. Rob was kind, thoughtful, and communicative, providing great updates throughout our trip that reassured us our girls were happy, loved, and well cared for. On top of that, he treated our home with the utmost respect. He clearly took pride in being a responsible and considerate house guest. It’s rare to find someone who cares this deeply, not just about the dogs, but about the entire experience. We came home to two very happy pups and a perfectly cared for home. We would trust Rob again in a heartbeat and feel incredibly lucky to have found him!”

“James did a great job watching our dog while we were overseas for two weeks. He took care of everything and went above and beyond, even cooking chicken for our dog who went on a hunger strike while we were gone.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have always been a dog lover. As well, I have worked at a dog kennel where I was in charge of feeding all of the dogs and letting them out to go the bathroom. The dogs ranged in ages from puppies all the way up to senior dogs which needed assistance in getting up to start walking. There is no dog too young or too old for me. I will embrace and love your best friend like they are my own! We will go for walks and play every night to make sure your best friends does not miss you too much! If you have any questions, please don’t be afraid to ask. Let’s have a barking good time together!

“Sydnee was GREAT! Total love connection between her and my two young, active pitbulls. Gave me peace of mind so I could be away a couple of days. Highly recommend!”

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, reliability, and attention I give to every pet. I understand that every animal has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to get to know their individual needs and make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m patient with young pets who are still learning and gentle with senior pets who may need extra time, medication, or special accommodations. I communicate regularly with pet owners by providing updates and photos, so they have peace of mind while they’re away. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the highest level of care and attention. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I plan my schedule to ensure pets receive consistent attention, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any medications they may need. I enjoy spending time with animals and make their comfort and well-being a priority. Whether it’s early mornings, evenings, weekends, or regular check-ins throughout the day, I am committed to providing reliable, attentive care while maintaining each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I provide attentive, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s individual needs and the owner’s instructions. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets have fresh water, are fed on schedule, receive regular potty breaks, and get plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. I also administer medications if instructed, monitor for any changes in behavior or health, and keep the environment clean, safe, and comfortable. I respect each client’s home by keeping it tidy, following all care instructions, and providing updates with photos and messages so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away.
