About: I've been raising, walking, feeding and nurturing my dogs since 2016. They are part of my family and enjoy precious time walking and playing with the dogs. I'm including parttime work in my life but have the time during the day to walk and nurture the dogs for exercise, feeding,etc. Thank you for my consideration. I live in a condo and the space is clean,comfortable and safe for dogs and people! I make sure hazards are avoided to ensure the safety of my dogs. Thank you
About: I have had two dogs since they were puppies, they both are now 9/10 years old. Have also taken care of friends’ cats and dogs. I am still in school so mostly available on weekends, but my school starts late and ends early so i have a lot of time in my hands I make sure they are comfortable and happy. I play with them, feed them their required amount of foods, and make sure they have a good time
“Emily did an amazing job taking care of our dog and loving her as her own. She took the time to get to know our dog's needs and preferences, and communicated clearly and professionally. Thank you, Emily!”

About: For the past 12 years, caring for dogs has been a daily part of my life. I have two of my own who I walk multiple times a day, rain or shine. Their happiness and safety mean everything to me, and that same level of caution and attentiveness is what I bring to every dog I care for. I’m the kind of person who always errs on the side of safety: secure leashes, controlled environments, and constant awareness of surroundings. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I also work part-time at a dog daycare and boarding facility. This means I handle dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities almost every day. I’m trained to read dog behavior, manage group play safely, and make sure each dog feels comfortable and cared for. Whether it’s a shy pup who needs gentle reassurance or an energetic dog who loves adventure, I know how to tailor my approach to their needs. Dogs truly bring so much joy to my life, and I treat every dog I meet with the same love, patience, and respect I give my own. When your pet is with me, whether for a walk or a drop-in, you can feel confident knowing they’re in safe, experienced, and loving hands. I currently am working part time in the morning so I have availability most days in the afternoons or evenings for walks and drop ins. I can be flexible. When doing drop ins and walks it’s important to me to take your lead on what your pet is used to in order to create a relaxed and stress free experience for them.
About: I love animals! I’ve been a dog mom for 13 years, I’ve fostered over 25 dogs, & have experience cat sitting as well. I’m based in Cranford and grew up in Westfield so very familiar with the area. Animals are my happy place and I love babying and caring for them. As such, I’d like to offer my services to keep your pets happy with cuddles, playtime, and/or exercise while you’re away from them. I have a genuine connection with animals & would love to help them feel less lonely while you’re away. In addition, I can provide a quick dog massage towards the end of my stay if you think your pet would enjoy it! I’ve experienced all different energy levels and weight up to 80 pounds. I provide excellent service through my communication, following direction, timeliness, and genuine care of animals. I’m available on weekends any time. On weekdays, I’m able to drop in 5:30pm and after during weekdays. If you’re close to me, I can drop by early morning and/or lunch time. From being a foster mom to homeless dogs, I’m very cognizant of the safety of animals. I know dogs especially can be easily spooked so I ensure that I have a firm grip on the leash with it wrapped once around my wrist. My dog is a strong pitbull so I feel comfortable handling most large strong dogs. While I’m caring for pets, I talk to them like they’re babies! I’m very much guilty of having a baby voice, but I feel the animals love and respond to it!
About: Experienced with puppies and strong pullers. I teach leash manners, basic commands, calm behavior, and provide safe, attentive, responsible care based on lifelong hands-on experience with dogs. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I’m available Monday through Saturday with flexible hours, allowing me to provide consistent walks, visits, attention, exercise, and reliable care without rushing. I prioritize safety and trust at all times. I carefully follow owner instructions, use secure leashes, stay alert during walks, respect routines, and ensure calm, clean, and respectful care in every environment.
About: I adopted my first dog when I was 9. I took on the responsibility of her care for the next 15 years that she was alive. I have cared for other dogs alongside her as well. My experience with them includes feeding, walks, cleaning cages and outdoor bathroom instances, administering medicine, brushing teeth, bathing, playing, and lots of cuddles! I’ve never been afraid to get my hands dirty and make it my point to respect the boundaries of any animal in my care. I’m lucky enough that I work from home currently, so I have plenty of time between meetings to feed, walk, and play with your pets! I focus on creating a safe and comfortable environment for each pet I care for. In both my home and my client’s home, I follow their established routines for feeding, playtime, and rest to ensure the pet feels secure. During walks, I prioritize safety. I believe in the importance of using proper leashes, avoiding dangerous areas, and tailoring the walk to the dog’s energy level and needs. I also keep the dog’s space clean, offer plenty of affection and mental stimulation, and provide regular updates to the owner so they always feel informed!
“Debra is fantastic. Our little guy is new to the family so she had to deal with us acclimating to him at the same time she did. She keeps me updated on his progress and how her visits go. We're happy to have someone checking on him who treats him like their own!”

About: Animals are my heart and soul—I’ve cared for pets my entire life, treating each one as my own. From puppies to seniors, I provide gentle, reliable, and loving care that gives both pets and owners peace of mind. I’m experienced in walking, feeding, administering medications, and offering companionship. I believe animals deserve the same love, respect, and joy they bring to us every day. I am the mother of a kitten, I work full time I have availability in the mornings before 10 am and some weekdays full time and weekends full time. Passionate about Respect the space, pay a lot of attention to details, I keep the care instructions for each pet, play, kisses, hugs and treats.
