Pet Sitting in Cold Brook

“I scheduled last minute, and it was my first time hiring her. She responded very quickly and was available to come meet Coco and me next day. The day she came and took care of my dog at our home, she sent me pictures of Coco and provided updates, which I really appreciated. She was professional, kind, and great with Coco. I highly recommend her!”

“Wonderful sitter, would book again in the future! Thank you so much!”

About: Hi! My name is Jessica and I would love to take care of your pet while you’re away. I have unofficially been a pet sitter for several years. I have been fortunate to have friends and coworkers ask me to help with their pets and since then word of mouth has given me the chance to pet sit a lot more, which I love! I have always loved animals and have had the chance to watch and help out with many dogs, cats, chickens, lizards, and even a couple horses. I have two cats who are my world and I intend to make your pet as much of a priority my own. If you were to hire me I would make sure your pet(s) have a schedule as close to normal as possible. I have no issues staying over with your dog or cat. My favorite thing to do while I dog sit is take them for walks, so that is not an issue at all and I will always make sure your dog is well secured and watched throughout any time outside. I am typically busy Monday - Friday from 7:30 AM - 5 PM which is why I said that I can’t be available full time during weekdays, but I am free all day during weekends. I have no issues with staying over or popping in several times a day if that is what you prefer. Safety for your pet is my #1 goal, but I also am there to spend time with them, play, and take them for walks. I know leaving your pet is stressful for you and them, so I always try to distract them and make sure they get lots of love and attention. I also am more than happy to provide a lot of pictures and updates to ease your mind as well! Unfortunately, my apartment building does not allow pets, not even to visit, so I have no opportunity to board your pet.

“Gabriella was great with our cat Maple. Maple was perfectly happy while we were away because of Gabriella's great care every day. She even left Maple a Christmas gift, which she loves! We will definitely book Gabriella again if we need another cat sitter.”

About: I've taken care of dogs for a long time. It started when I was young, probably around the age of 10, but of course I couldn't drive, so my mom had to help out. I have always had a love for animals, and I always will. I am currently a college student studying childhood education and psychology, along with playing soccer. That may sound like I have a pretty busy schedule, but since I live at home, it is not bad at all. I am also a substitute teacher, which allows me to choose when I work based on how my schedule looks for that given week. Pet safety is of the utmost importance to me. Families are relying on me to care for their beloved animals while away for a day or a few days. Playing outside or relaxing inside are all things I love to do, based on the dog's needs. Walks are always fun, too!

“Melinda was wonderful with our girls. We have a very fresh Frenchie and Melinda was great with her. She was very communicative and sent super cute pics. Will definitely book her again.”

About: Hi!! I’m Alexandria (Alex), and I’ve been an animal lover and caretaker for as long as I can remember! Growing up, I had the joy of raising MANY wonderful dogs, all except one being rescues from puppy mills or difficult homes. My experience ranges from caring for a loving Pit Bull to two incredible dachshunds who were both blind and deaf, so I’m no stranger to dogs who need a little extra TLC. I care for all animals like they’re my own! Whether your pet is playful, shy, or needs special care, I’ll make sure they feel safe, seen, and loved. I look forward to meeting your furry family! I am working a full time 7am-4pm job at Walmart, and soon to be starting a job as a Behavioral Management Service Provider... although it seems like a lot, I am more than flexible and willing to work around whatever you need and whatever your pet baby needs! As of right now, on the weekdays I am available any time after 4pm, Thursday I am free all day and Saturday I am Free all day. Whatever it is we can make a plan! For walks I have a portable dog bowl that holds about 32oz of water and I always have extra water bottles in my car, I love the outside so your dog would never be locked up in the house somewhere unless that's what they wanted. I also have plenty of poop bags and bags of treats and toys!

“He was awesome!”

About: I have always had dogs in my care. Currently, I have two well behaved dogs. One rescued and another with health concerns. I am familiar with medication administration. I am very active and often take my dogs on hikes and walks around the community. My fenced in yard allows dogs to socialize, roam, and enjoy a safe space when not on the trails. Aside from a dog owner, I am a teacher and have availability to take care of pets in my home. I would be available afternoons, evenings, and weekends every week. I live a very active lifestyle and have the property and means to take care of your pet for short and long term visits. In addition exercise, I offer a clean and nurturing environment for your dogs to play with mine. Additionally, I do stop in visits to walk, let out, and feed dogs outside of boarding. I am a mature professional with years of experience. I know the right calls to make while taking care of pets.

“Jerrad is the absolute best. I truly have no words to describe how lucky I am to have met him through Rover. He is so caring and loving to my little dog. He is extremely reliable and understandable about unexpected situations. He will go an extra mile to make sure your pet is happy. My pup gets so excited when he sees him, it’s adorable! A million star review!!”

My father and mother are both home and can give your pet extra love, attention and help when needed. I have a 7 year old male lab who loves everyone and is great with other animals.

About: I am generally not afraid of dogs, being able walk, run, and play with a dog always brightens my day. I use to take care of puppies and adult dogs in my spare time after school and I would make sure to feed them, take them out for walks, play with them and pick up after them when needed. I am not working right now so looking after a dog is a good way to pass the time for me, not mention being out of the house and getting a decent amount of exercise. I will take great responsibility in taking care any dog that is under my care, I'll respect the owners rules and do my best to satisfy the customer and their needs

I can provide walks, mental stimulation/enrichment, short training sessions, social interactions with my bomb proof dog! Let me know what you need, as I am here for YOU and your pet!

Nighttime visits and Long walks are no sweat. I'm also very neat and clean so any messes made by your pups are no problem at all. My schedule is currently open 7 days a week. If for any reason I am not available pet owners will be made aware before scheduling any services. I recently lost both my pups to cancer. Thorn was almost 15, and my girl Rain was almost 13. Being around other dogs is helping me cope with their loss. My home yard is very large (over an acre), and fully fenced in. Dogs also don't have any furniture restrictions in my home. They're welcome to sit or sleep wherever they like. If sitting in your home I abide by your rules for everything. Dinner time, kinds of treats, or walks schedules are all set by you.
