Dog Sitting Cresskill

About: I've done a fair amount of animal rescue and have experience with a wide range of animals and various caretaking needs. I've cared for cats, dogs, bunnies, rats, birds, chinchillas, lizards, etc. I can administer most medications, and am also experienced with senior animals. I currently have 3 rescue special-needs kitties of my own and am a part-time rat mom. I teach part-time at Montclair State University and work in wardrobe and costumes on Broadway. I'm currently in-between shows and have quite a bit of free time take care of pets. I am flexible and versatile in care methods for your pets. I can go for a brisk walk with a Dalmatian, I can play tug of war with a Dachshund, I can cuddle with a Golden Retriever. I am happy to feed, play with, cuddle, brush, walk, etc.

About: *** Please don't send me requests for dates if you see my calendar is already blocked off with those dates & PLEASE READ MY ENTIRE PROFILE BEFORE BOOKING *** I keep my calendar up to date so use other dates if Rover insists you must pick dates for sitting in order for a message to go thru** Also, if booking for day care, after 4 hours of a stay, this is going to get the full day rate because I do not take multiple dogs I am also charging for 3 days when it's a weekend if the dog is coming early on Friday and going home on Sunday because I can't have a dog for 3 days and only get paid for 2 days. I have only raised my rate by $1-2 since Covid & take one family of dogs at a time. Please respond back to all messages if you reach out. Thx. ** I am trying to take dogs now under 50 pounds, very small/small to medium preferred. It would be very helpful if you list the specific breed of your dog too and give details. No aggressive breeds taken, sorry, no Pitbulls. My husband and I both work from home as my only job is caring for the dogs staying at my house. It is nice because someone is always here and the dogs get a ton of attention. My name is Hope Landow-Schnur and I adore dogs. I raised my own dogs for over 14+ years - Bailey and Jango. Everyone that knows me, knows that I am the ultimate pet lover and treated my dogs as well as my children. We have a nice home in River Vale, NJ with a huge 6' high fenced in yard. I am married with triplets - 22 years old and they love playing with our guest dogs. I have my own big crate set up (only if you crate your dog) and ready to welcome your dog(s) into my home when you need to be away overnight or for an extended period of time. I will do my best to keep your treasured pet on their own schedule with feedings, playtime and time outside running around the back yard or if you prefer, walks only. I've made floor dogs into lap dogs, they get extra spoiled with me! You will also get lots of photos & updates when you are away. I just recently changed my setting to small to medium dogs if you are a repeat customer and can not find me on line. I'm also available for dog day care in my home if my calendar is free. After 6 hours, it is considered a full rate instead of the daily rate if you plan to leave your dog with me. Looking forward to hearing from you & I respond back promptly! Thanks. Hope

About: I love playing with my dog and always make sure he is feed, walked, and is having fun. I have also been around a few different animals and always try to taylor how I treat them towards them. At 8:30am and 6:00pm my dog gets a walk and I let out my dog whenever he stands by my back door into my fenced in yards where he is free do do as he pleases (there is nothing dangerous back there). I walk him around 30 min after his meals so he get a good bowel movement in. I would alway try to leave everything as it is and only to touch what I am instructed too. The would be taken the upmost care of.

“Allison came to visit our cats once a day while we were away for a long weekend. The cats seemed to have a nice time and were all in good spirits when we returned. She followed our instructions and reached out with any questions.”

“We had such a great experience with Philsung! It was our first time booking him, and everything went so smoothly. He was super punctual, very friendly, and followed all of our instructions perfectly. He played with our three cats, sent lots of cute photos and updates, and kept everything clean (including scooping the litter). He’s also really easy to communicate with and made us feel totally at ease while we were away. Our cats clearly liked him too! We’ll definitely book with him again next time — highly recommend!”

About: I’ve always loved animals, especially cats! I have a cat of my own and have spent years caring for pets. I’ve dog-sat for many of my friends, including caring for their dogs for stays lasting several weeks or even months. I also volunteered at a cat shelter for a year, where I cared for and spent time with many different cats. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning, giving pets attention, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and would love to take care of yours! I have a flexible schedule and can work pet care into my routine. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and longer stays, and I’m happy to discuss specific dates and times with each pet parent. I’m also comfortable caring for pets for extended periods when needed. I prioritize making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m attentive to each pet’s routine and personality and will follow their owner’s instructions closely. I have experience caring for dogs in their homes and my own cat, as well as caring for many cats while volunteering at a shelter. I’m responsible, patient, and always make sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, food, and care.

“Zoe went above and beyond caring for both our 90-pound adult dog and our high-energy puppy! I’ve always been the type of person who is extremely nervous about leaving my dogs in someone else’s care, to the point that I’ve never hired a dog walker or pet sitter before. However, after getting our puppy and having a prior commitment that meant we’d be away from home for an extended period, we decided to take the leap and reach out to Zoe. We couldn’t be happier that we did! Zoe didn’t just meet our expectations; she completely exceeded them. She even arrived a little early to make sure she had all the information she needed for a successful visit. Throughout the entire time, she kept us updated and maintained great communication, which gave us so much peace of mind. When we returned home, both dogs were happy, well cared for, and properly exercised. As someone who is very particular about who I trust with my dogs, I cannot recommend Zoe enough! I would absolutely rebook with her in a heartbeat, and we’ve already started discussing our future dog-walking needs with her. Thank you so much, Zoe! We’re so grateful to have found you! ❤️”

About: I’ve always loved dogs, and started walking them about 6 years ago. Now I’ve mostly worked with senior pets, usually medium sized dogs. I’m always eager to learn more about any animal in my care, and will stay in touch with daily updates. I’m almost always available, and I have plenty of time to give your pet individualized care and attention. If you need me, I’m there for your pet! I prefer to schedule a meeting to meet you and your pet before sitting for them. That way I’m familiar to them, and I can hear directly from you about any special needs, medications, habits, and things to look out for.

About: I learned my love of Dog's in my adult life. We got out first family dog and I instantly felt that connection. Through my first dog I learned not alone the love they provide but also the love they are given by a family. They truly are a part of the family. I think my biggest skill is being a father, husband and a dog owner and these traits have given me a big heart for caring for a precious family member for others. I work from home and can provide care weekday, daytime and early evenings. I love to be active and also would take my dog along with us if agreed upon with the owners first. I love to get fresh air and let dogs enjoy it as well. I take into full consideration any walking tips as well, I prefer no other dog interactions along our walks and truly would care for yours as I do my own. I have a fenced backyard, and can care as well in my home on the first floor only with gates to prevent going up any stairs.

About: As a devoted dog owner myself, I understand the love and care your furry friend deserves and will treat them like my own. I know how hard it is to have to leave your beloved pet whether it is for a family or business trip, or even an emergency. I have been there and knowing they’re in good hands, loved and safe is priceless, that’s why I will always be available for a random video call if you want to say hi to them, or just tell them how you miss them. I work from home, with a flexible schedule so I am always around if more walks are needed, or if you pup is just in need of some hugs :) I have an extra bedroom with a dog pool filled with toys, and I don’t have any rules regarding pets on furniture - Maya happily sleeps on the couch or bed.

About: I had a 5-pound poodle toy who passed away at the beginning of this year. I adopted him with a lot of health problem and I took a great care of them for 14 years, specially at the last three years that was more difficult due to his age and all the health problems that got more intense. My boyfriend who lives with me works at Veterinary Specialty & Emergency Center, so we know the technique to take care of dogs, giving them medicine and deal with them under any circumstances. I am currently working at home everyday. So I have full time to take care of your dog, play with them and walk them in a very green and peaceful area. We live in a condominium with a lots of space, with green area at the back. The surrounding area is very calm and pleasant for your dog. Moreover, my boyfriend who lives with me works at the Vet Emergency Group as a veterinary assistant, so we know how to take care of your dog very well!

“Megan was a great sitter for Nyla. She was very flexible when I added additional visits and requested changes in the visits. I will definitely be scheduling her for future visits.”

About: I genuinely want the best for your pups!! Growing up with a dog has taught me lots of things about pet care and that it's something i enjoy doing. I am a college student with a very flexible class schedule so I always have free time! I will always make sure there is time for me to care after your pups. I cannot care for pets in my dorm, but i can in a clients home! I'm willing to do whatever is needed for your pets!

About: I recently said goodbye to my 18-year-old senior pup who was still as active and playful as when he was a puppy, even in his last weeks with us. I was his main caretaker since we adopted him when I was 10-years-old, so I have plenty of experience caring for dogs and prioritize keeping them safe and happy! We also had other dogs growing up, so I am used to caring for multiple dogs, dogs of various ages and sizes, and dogs of all energy levels. Specifically, as my doggo aged, I gained a lot of experience with medicine routines, slower walks, attention to health details, and all other requirements of caring for senior dogs. In college, I would housesit for families with all kinds of pets (including rabbits, geese and chickens!) and this helped me pay part of my school costs. However, I enjoyed caring for other's pets so much, I have continued to do so for years after college! I love getting to know new furry friends and making sure they are happy, exercised, well-fed, and enjoying themselves while their parents are away! I am currently working part-time, and often only for a few hours in the evening, so I have lots of time and flexibility to care for you pup, prioritizing being available for prime walking hours in the sunshine! I am willing to work around my part-time hours to meet your dog's routine needs. I am willing to care for the dogs in your home so they are comfortable in their own spaces and can generally keep their normal routines. I am flexible and willing to follow any instructions about your space that you provide.
