Dog Sitting Dunellen

About: I have loved and cared for animals for most of my life. Growing up, I raised and cared for dogs and many other household pets, which taught me responsibility, patience, and attentiveness from a young age. One of my earliest experiences was helping care for a mother dog and her newborn puppies. Since moving to the United States 15 years ago, I have regularly helped friends and neighbors care for their pets while they were away. In my professional life, I have been an elementary school teacher for the past ten years. My experience working with children has strengthened my ability to be patient, observant, dependable, and responsive to individual needs. I treat every pet with the same level of care and attention that I would give to a member of my own family. I am a full-time elementary school teacher during the school year. During the summer, I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day to provide care, supervision, companionship, and exercise for dogs. Because I am home for most of the day during summer break, I can accommodate regular walks, feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I am committed to maintaining your pet’s routine and ensuring they feel comfortable and cared for while you are away. I live in an end-unit townhouse in a safe, pet-friendly neighborhood with nearby walking paths, parks, and green spaces. My home provides a calm and comfortable environment where pets can relax and feel secure. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and daily routines. I supervise pets closely, keep them on leash during walks unless otherwise directed in a secure area, and make safety my top priority at all times. I understand that every dog has unique needs, and I strive to provide individualized care that helps them feel at home.

“Kaylyn did an excellent job in taking care of our cat. She went above and beyond, was very receptive to messages, and was great at communicating!”

“Cristina is incredibly kind and took good care of our pups. It was nice to have some peace of mind that they were in good hands when we couldn’t be there.”

“Hiral made daily/frequent various in visits to our chihuahua mix (Rue) for 3 and a half months. If I could giver her 10 stars, I absolutely would! Hiral is incredibly punctual, professional, communicative, and flexible. Rue was 5 months old when Hiral first started and is now almost 9 months old. Rue would not be the well behaved, potty trained pup that she is without Hiral. We and Rue will miss you Hiral! Good luck with your future endeavors! Thanks again!”

About: I am a 25 y/o high school PE teacher. I enjoy running marathons. I have my own rescue dog who loves long walks and running. I am currently a teacher, I have summers off from late June to late August off. I travel from New Jersey to Virginia, I can offer services through the week and weekends. I have clear communication skills that include phone calls, texts and pictures. I have my own dog and understand the commitment to quality care when it comes to pets.

About: Growing up, my family and I lived on a small farm with tons of animals, including horses, cows, chickens, cats, and of course, little dogs. I was taught from a very young age that any living thing should be respected and treated properly. Puppies and kittens have been in my life for as long as I can remember, and my love for them has only grown over the years. Pet care is part of our everyday routine. I’m a stay at home mom, so I’m home most of the day. We have a fully fenced yard that’s just under half an acre, and my kids and I spend a lot of time outside playing with our pets. They get plenty of exercise, attention, and love every day. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and lots of attention. I also keep their space clean and always make their safety and comfort a priority.

“As always, Rutter was super happy to see Madeline and I’m very grateful she was able to stop in on such short notice when I was in a bind. Thank you 🙏🏼”

“Ann took very good care of our cat! She gave detailed updates of how each drop in visit went and sent us plenty of pictures.”

About: I grew up with a German Shepherd and Siberian Husky. I now have two dogs that I adore. My babies are apart of the family. I have experience with small, medium and large breeds. I pay a lot of attention to dogs body language which allows to see when their uncomfortable or want something I work remotely, full-time. this allows me to walk my girls four times a day and play with them throughout the day as well. this also allows me to give them cuddles throughout the day I have a fenced backyard that your loving pet will be able to run around and and have all the fun. In addition, they will be walked four times a day. I have a dog room that has a Furbo (Camera) which allows me to monitor the pups while I run errands. It also loves me to throw them treats!

“Definitely will rebook if needed. Flexible even I have an urgent last-minute request. Patient with my puppy and help clean up the ‘pee accident’. Thank you so much!”

“Jaden is great. She wanted to take the time to get to know my pup before house sitting. She was respectful of her boundaries as Missy has anxiety. We are looking forward to having her stay.”

Tracee C.

“Tessa was wonderful! She took great care of Remy while I was away and was always very attentive to his needs. She carefully followed all of my instructions, including giving his medication with a Pill Pocket, and was very responsive whenever I had questions or requests. My flight was unexpectedly delayed on my way home, and she was kind enough to accept a last-minute morning visit so Remy could receive his medication on time. I really appreciated her flexibility, reliability, and great communication. I would absolutely book with her again!”

Luna L.

“I felt so comfortable leaving Milo with Karina. I totally appreciate receiving pictures letting me know that he was well adjusted and enjoying himself in their care.”

Margie R.

“I was impressed with Kim! From day one, the cats bonded with her, which is unusual, especially when meeting someone new. She went above and beyond doing what was asked, including crushing pills, giving them attention if they wanted it and opening the door so they could get some fresh air and sun through the screen. By the third day they were following her around the house. She's light on her feet and very patient with them. To add perspective, when my adult children come home, the cats hide, even though two of the cats grew up with the kids. Before the week was over, I had already booked her for several other times this summer!”
