About: I’ve had both dogs and cats throughout my life and have always taken pride in giving them the best care possible. Over the years, my love for animals has only grown—especially for cats. As I got older, that bond became even stronger, which eventually led me to having four cats of my own, all of whom I love deeply and care for like family. What sets me apart is my genuine connection with animals and my understanding of their unique personalities and needs. Whether it's keeping a shy cat comfortable, giving a senior pet extra patience, or just making sure every little detail is handled with care, I treat every pet as if they were my own. As someone who works from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of free time throughout the day and week to focus on pet care. My remote work is structured in a way that gives me the freedom to plan around pet visits and provide consistent, attentive care. Whether it’s morning check-ins, midday playtime, or evening visits, I’m able to accommodate a variety of needs and make sure your pet gets the time, love, and attention they deserve! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, preferences, and personality so I can create a calm, secure environment that feels familiar and stress-free. In your home, I respect your space and follow all instructions closely—whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, playtime, or keeping the litter box clean and tidy. I make sure pets feel safe and cared for, and I always keep you updated with regular check-ins and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. At my home, pets have a quiet, cat-friendly space where they can relax without stress or overcrowding. I’m mindful of keeping things clean, secure, and peaceful—especially for more sensitive or shy cats. My goal is always to treat your pet (and your home) with the same care and respect I’d want for my own.

“Peter was excellent with our cat Vader! He was prompt, communicative, and above and beyond helpful. We were very appreciative of his help with our cat while we were on vacation. He gave us piece of mind when he would visit and we can’t thank him enough!”


About: I am retired and have recently relocated to northern jersey. I am an avid animal lover. I have always had my own pets. Unfortunately, I had to say goodbye to my fur baby of 13 1/2 years and am not quite ready to adopt at this time but sincerely miss having an animal in my life. I am helping to care for a dear friend’s cat and although truthfully I am more a "dog" person, I now find myself beginning to appreciate "cats”. Cats are really fascinating (and a lot different) than dogs. I believe that I am a person who you can trust with one of your most prized possessions, your "fur-babies". I love walking, so dog walking is a win win!! Drop in visits are also no problem!! Unfortunately. I am unable to offer pet sitting at this time. I love to walk and especially enjoy walking for a furry companion. Home visits for either dogs and cats are also something I enjoy doing. I am currently unavailable for pet sitting. However, I do prefer walking small or medium dogs and will give them the exercise and/or company they need.

“We had never left our cat at a sitter before so was a little worried but Lorena and her family were so great with Toby. They have a beautiful large and clean playroom for Toby to play and wander around. Lorena also knew just how to help Toby get acclimated to the new surroundings. Her family really knows how to make pets feel welcome and comfortable as well. In just a few hours, Toby was rolling around on his back wanting attention, which is a sure sign he is happy. All the while, we got sent lots of pictures, videos, and updates so never worried. I would be glad to recommend Lorena to anyone and will definitely go back as needed!”


“Lindsey did a fantastic job with our cat Chloe. She was also great about brining in packages (and because it was Christmas, there were quite a few to bring in!). She loved on our kitty, played with her and gave her treats. Chloe was comfortable with her immediately! Would recommend Lindsey to anyone!”


“Lauren was AMAZING!! She left us with very detailed info about Sedona, and made us feel very secure about Sedona. Would HIGHLY recommend!! I will definitely keep booking Lauren for future bookings because she is very trustworthy and a cat whisperer ?”


“Maia is AMAZING! This was our family's first time using this service and the care Maia provided exceeded our expectations. The meet and greet prior to booking gave us complete confidence this was the right fit. While we were away, we got updates and pictures daily, and when we returned, we arrived home to a super happy kitty. 100% recommend Maia, and we look forward to booking in the future.”


“Jenn was great. She met with me before hand to go over everything and was incredibly friendly. She kept me updated on my two cats and sent photos every single time. Love her !”


“Andrea was great with her first weekend with my boy, Romeo. He was very cuddly and well looked after, lots of photos to ensure that he was happy. Definitely recommend!”

“Natalie was just fantastic! She came over for a meet and greet and my dogs instantly loved her. From the moment she met them I could tell she was a dog person and animal lover. Coordinating a drop in with Natalie was super easy. I really appreciate she was able to take my dogs for a walk with only a few days notice. You can't go wrong with Natalie!”

About: I have had 4 large dogs in my adult life. My last 2 (bother & sister) are now over the bridge. They were trained to the point that they never needed a leash in most situations. I took them wherever I went. We did lots of outdoors. I have property upstate in NY also. Any dog is part of my life, my family. Happiest when they're around I am currently not working after dealing with an illness. However, I'm fine, fit and active. Nothing but time for hanging with any pets. Being without my own, I look forward to sharing my days with them. I have a fenced in yard right on a park with a large pond. Dogs can come & go as they please. I have lots of time to spend with them almost every day. If I have to leave the house I would take them with me.

About: I have had dogs and cats over the years and taken care of many others in addition to my own. I love animals and understand the importance of taking care of animals without spoiling them. I work full time but my hours are flexible and I'mm on a hybrid work schedule. I am available most Mondays all day, Tuesday - Thursday after 4pm and weekends with enough advance notice I do not plan on boarding dogs at this time. I am just signing up for walks but I need to fill out this section to continue

About: I have grown up with many kinds of animals. I dog sat 3 pitbulls multiple times and leash trained each of them. I trained all of my family pets.

I am available Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday after 5pm. On Wednesdays after 6:30pm. Any time on Sundays I do not provide services in my home due to a pet policy in my complex. But I am available for services in your home. I can follow a schedule to fit your pets needs and provide them with lots of of and care.

“Meliset is hands down the best pet sitter I’ve ever had! Not only does she understand cats, but she genuinely loves my cats—maybe even more than I do. Her own cat, Bear, was the sweetest host and became an instant friend to my two cats. They played together like they had known each other forever, and Bear even shared his food and treats with them! I’ve never seen my cats so happy and comfortable while I was away. They’ve found their new best friend, and I’ve found my go-to pet sitter. Highly recommend Meliset to anyone who wants their pets to be truly loved and cared for!”

During her time with my pets, Krysteena demonstrated exceptional reliability and a genuine love for animals. She consistently arrived on time for walks and visits, and my pets were always excited to see her. Krysteena has a natural ability to connect with animals, ensuring they feel comfortable and cared for. She is attentive to the needs of each pet, providing companionship during walks. Her attention to detail and proactive approach helped ease my concerns when I had to be away from home. I highly recommend Krysteena. She will undoubtedly provide the same level of care and commitment to your pets as she did with mine. Sincerely, Angel Roman”
