“Michael is the BEST. He took care of our house and our cats with patience, humor, respect, and care. He sent photos, funny info, and kept us updated on their antics. A couple of things went wrong in the house while we were away (nothing to do with Michael) and he handled them with complete grace. I felt at ease while we were away and would not hesitate to hire Michael again. And again!! We recommend him 200%!!”


“This was my first time leaving my pup in someone else's care and Alyssa completely put me at ease! She even sent pictures of how he was doing throughout the evening which I really appreciated, and when we returned he seemed happy and content. I would definitely book Alyssa's services again.”


About: I cared for my yellow Labrador, Sparky, for 12 years. From puppyhood to his senior years, our daily walks, playtime, and belly rubs were some of my favorite ways to connect and spend quality time together. Over the years, friends, family members and neighbors have also trusted me to care for their pets while they were away. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or providing companionship during vacations, I’ve always treated every pet like my own, with patience and love. Your pet’s safety, comfort and happiness are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable and caring looking after your furry family member, and I’m here to provide that peace of mind. I work full time during the week, so I’m available for walks after 5pm on weekdays and anytime on weekends. I am also available for house visits and stays from Wednesday evenings after I get out of work through Sunday evenings. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with the same respect and care I would my own. I understand how important it is to maintain your pet’s routine in a familiar environment, and I always aim to create a calm, comfortable, and safe experience. During visits, I follow your instructions closely, ensure your pet is fed, exercised, and given plenty of attention, and keep you updated with regular check-ins. Daily walks were one of my favorite bonding activities with my dog, Sparky, so I truly understand how important they are for both physical health and mental stimulation. Whether your pup loves a leisurely stroll or a more energetic walk, I tailor each outing to their pace and personality. Safety is my top priority. I make sure the leash is secure, stay alert to surroundings making sure it is a safe area to walk in, and follow your dog’s routine and preferences. I make sure walks are not only safe but also enjoyable, giving your dog a chance to explore, exercise and return home happy and relaxed.

“Charlie is amazing!! He took great care of our dog Kira, ensuring she was well-fed, exercised, and given lots of attention. He was attentive to her needs, especially given her sensitive stomach, and kept us updated with regular check-ins. We felt completely at ease knowing she was in good hands. Highly recommend! Let me know if you want any tweaks!”


“Leticia was AMAZING!! She gave us updates everyday and gave us such peace of mind while we were away. One of our pups had a muscle flair up and she was incredible with her to help and care for her!! She loved our pups and treated our home with just as much care & respect. I hope she will agree to watch our pups again and again as we need. The greatest words we can say are THANK YOU!!”

“I was so nervous finding a new sitter for Bella since she can be a bit quirky. Nathalia was so sweet, kept me up to date on what they were doing, and sent great pictures. She went above and beyond for us! Thank you so much, we can’t wait for the next sit :)”



About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs since childhood. I have almost a decade of dog walking and pet sitting experience. I know how important animals are to their owners and treat them as such. Currently, I am only doing pet sitting and dog walking as my full time job so I have a lot of time to take care of your pet’s needs. I babysit small animals at my home but bigger animals I go to the client’s home due to lack of space at my home for bigger animals. I also find that it helps the pet get use to me if I am in their environment .

“Siara was lovely and we will absolutely have her back. Even though it was her first time taking care of our two large pups and she was plagued with frequent storms and an unexpected limp, she handled each challenge with grace and communicated with us well! Highly recommend!”


“Izabella watched Rae for TWO WEEKS while we were in Spain. We came back to a happy healthy dog who was obviously very well cared for. She sent us picture updates daily (at least two a day) and would comment on Rae’s little quirks which made us feel very comfortable, knowing our girl was super comfortable with Izabella. Wonderful experience, thank you so much!!!! 😊”


About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and they are my best friends! Cant wait to make new ones and take care of your furry friends! I work from home so I am available all day for potty breaks for constant attention needed. No need to worry about the furry friend being sad! We have a big back yard with lots of space to run around and 2 furry friends that are always around to keep the new furry friends company.

About: I had pets when I was younger and grew up having responsibilities of taking care and being attentive to the care of animals in my life. I am a college student on summer break, I would love to go out for walks and giving your pets the attention that I can give due to my flexible schedule. I have a spacious backyard and being close to a park is wonderful to go on long walks or just let your pets run around.

About: I grew up in the Philippines from when I was born till I was 19. And for those years we have always had a dog in the house. Most at one time was 6 dogs. All are trained and well taken care of from the moment they were born or adopted. Giving them their best lives is all that they deserve from us, these furry friends will love us unconditionally. It’s my job to make sure that they feel that same love back. I am currently working part time on a few jobs around the Montclair/Bloomfield area. I plan to return to school for my doctorate but for the mean time caring for pets have always been a love of mine and I will do my very best to make sure your little (or big) buddies get the attention they require. Depending on the breed of dog and their individual energy levels, their playtimes would vary from either indoor activities like tug of war, sensory activities like training their sense of smell with treats, or more outdoor backyard stuff like fetch, making sure all their zoomies are taken outside before they cause a mess inside the house. Making sure that each pet is well stimulated and given and good amount of food and water after tends to get them in a lot calmer mood as the sun begins to dim

“Stefanie was our first in-home dog-sitter and our experience with her (and the Rover app) was top notch. Stefanie was quick to reply to our messages, and she was able to be flexible when our plans changed at the last minute. More importantly, Stefanie was amazing with our Great Dane puppy! A 90 pound puppy who is able to knock over small humans and eat food out of the kitchen sink - this is no small pet-sitting gig lol. Stefanie came over to our house for a meet & greet - she was calm, informed, and kind with our dog from the start. We had been worried about leaving our dog and our home with a new person, but Stefanie put our minds at ease. While we were gone, she kept in touch with us, sending photos and updates several times per day. When we arrived back, we were delighted to find a very happy dog and a house that was cleaner than when we'd left! Stefanie definitely deserves all the stars!! We will be asking for her help again soon!”


“Nicole was great! We had a difficult timeline that many sitters wouldn't say yes to, but Nicole did! She arrived on time, at 6am no less, and sent many wonderful updates throughout the day. We got home 30 minutes later than we thought we would, and Nicole was so kind about the whole situation. We didn't worry about Carm all day and knew she was being cared for. Will book again!”


“Elissa was awesome. Everything you want for your pet, Elissa gave. She was loving and caring for our dog, Gus. She was so attentive and took care of the house too. She shared photos and video and asked questions. We were so at ease with her taking care of him that we stopped checking in even. He is a German Pointer and so he loves snuggling as much as exercise and we got it all and could not be more grateful to Elissa.”
