About: I've had a love for animals as long as I can remember. As a young child finding strays , cats or dogs and caring for them until the owners where found. Love these fur babies and will care for them like my own. I am currently unemployed and love animals and walking -perfect fit! My schedule is open to help when needed. Would love to schedule a meetup with your fur baby. Each pet has its own routine to be discussed prior to my care. Will follow the needs of each pet individually and any additional requirements as needed.
“Alexandra is so so wonderful! Whenever I go away and have her stay with my 3 dogs, I never worry because know they are being cared for by someone I fully trust. She is kind and thoughtful. Alexandra sends photos every day and makes sure to update me about everything! She allows me to relax when I leave and that’s the most wonderful feeling! Thank you for being amazing to my fur babies 🥰”
“Stephanie stayed in our home with our spoiled pup, Oliver, and not only did he love her and was well taken care of, but our house was immaculate when we got back from vacation. She’s responsible and responsive and we felt comfortable knowing Oliver was in good hands.”
“Pete went above and beyond! Incredible job as far as attention to detail and instructions. Very nice guy who kept us completely in the loop the entire time we were gone. Pete is easily the best dogsitter we’ve ever had and our dogs can’t wait to have him back. Whatever is above a perfect rating is what we’d rate him.”
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.
About: Hello there, my name is Tatiana and I'm currently a health coach with very flexible hours. I am a responsible caring owner of a maltipoo. I have dog sat and taken care of dogs since I was a little girl. I love dogs of all sizes and breeds as well as a variety of other pets. Your pet will be loved and taken well care of just as they would with you full attention would be in tact due to love for pets and dogs. I do believe owners should be comfortable with who cares for their dogs, because they're family practically, so a meet and greet is no issue. Dogs are adorable and walks are too. :) Luckily I have a very flexible schedule allowing me to spend time with my pets and family. I’m fortunate enough to enjoy my time taking care of other loved pets too. I make sure pet owners feel comfortable with me first before entrusting me with their fur babies. Logging in when I see they’re pets and sticking to my available schedule as we are still entrusting each other.
“Jalisa was very professional throughout her time housesitting for our 2 small doggies. She sent picture updates and made sure we were comfortable our babies were safe while we were away, would highly recommend!!”
“Rachel was FANTASTIC with our 70+ pound Rottweiler/Husky with separation anxiety. She played and engaged with him when his energy was up, and let him lounge and rest when he needed it. We got frequent photo and text updates (and she takes really great doggy photos), and she even did an art project with him. He was happy and relaxed when we got home. Would definitely use her again for dog sitting in our home and might event try boarding him in her home when the need comes up. Thanks Rachel!”
About: I have been taking care of my dog for about 7 years now, I have been feeding him and playing with him, I love them. I work a part time job so in my free time I like walking dogs and seeing other dogs and everything they have to give. I have a fence so he can play when he wants on the deck or if he wants a walk. If they misbehave I can crate them so they can learn.
About: I have taken care of pets for over 25 years. I have personally owned pets and I know what it takes to care for them. I am currently retired. I have free time on my schedule to care for your pet(s). I am also flexible with my schedule, if needed. I have a fully fenced in yard, with a nice grass area. My house is big enough for your pet to have space to roam around and play.
“We are so grateful for Rhinesca and Julio. We were taking a very last minute and long trip, they were great with updates. Our dog is reactive and strong, they did an excellent job when meeting him for the first time and controlling him on walks. We'll definitely reach out again.”
About: I’ve had dogs & cats my entire life. Your fur baby will be in good hands while you’re away. I am both dependable & reliable I’m currently not working, so my schedule is flexible. I can work around your schedule and I can be there when & if you need me. I currently have two indoor cats. I also have a fenced in yard. There is plenty of room for animals to play & run around.
About: Let's start with my mother was a VET in her home country of DR. Her love for animals transferred to her kids and we have had pets since I was 1. From rabbits to different type of dogs, chickens etc. you name it. This year I'm taking off from the Corporate World and have plenty of time to take of your precious kids.:) They might come back more spoiled. I do own a British Shorthair so please communicate with me if your pet does not like other pets or cats. Also, want to note this is not my sole income so I will not have several dogs housed in my home like other sitters which makes the stay more comfortable for your pet and I have time to be more attentive to them. My house is also super clean and comfortable as I heard horror stories of other sitters housing way too many animals and unclean conditions. Feel free to always communicate if you want to do a meet and greet and I can give you a tour of my house. I'm currently not working and have plenty of time needed to dedicate to taking care of your pet. I'm super attentive , organized and responsible. I would not leave your pet unattended and they might come back super spoiled. I have a backyard for your dog and cat (if they like outside) to run free and roam. We have a gate that will keep them inside. The New Milford area is lovely and they're going to love walking around the neighborhood. They're also free to roam the house as I do not believe in keeping pets in cages. Please do let me know if they have any issues with using the bathroom.

Theodore G.
“As Teddy's father, I've had the privilege of watching him grow into an incredibly kind, responsible, and thoughtful young man—especially when it comes to animals. From a very early age, he showed a deep empathy for pets and a natural ability to connect with them. When our neighbors went on vacation, Teddy stepped in without hesitation, making sure their dogs were not just cared for, but loved and given plenty of attention and playtime. He approaches every task with maturity and a big heart. Whether he’s out walking dogs in the neighborhood or simply sitting with a nervous pup to keep them company, he brings calm, warmth, and a strong sense of responsibility. I’d trust him with any pet, any time. He’d be an incredible asset to the Rover community.”
Jody M.
“I can’t recommend Jody enough for dog sitting! From the moment she met my pup, I could tell she genuinely loves dogs and understands how to care for them. She’s patient, responsible, and incredibly kind. My dog came back happy, well-exercised, and clearly loved. Jody sent regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It’s such a relief knowing I have someone I can completely trust with my furry family member. If you’re looking for someone who treats your dog like their own, Jody is the one!”
