Dog Sitting East Orange

“Priyanka was wonderful with Carlos and Chief! Her communication was great and she provided the best photos of them while I was away - even better than I get sometimes! I would highly recommend Priyanka for your cat-sitting needs.”

About: I’m a dog mom to 3 sweethearts: Sherlock (15-lb Shih Tzu rescue), Jessie (55-lb American pitbull rescue) and Sasha (40-lb mixed terrier rescue). They all are very reactive to different triggers (people, other dogs, cats, squirrels/wildlife, etc.), and they’ve taught me how to be a better parent. Puppo (18-lb Maltipoo), our 15-year old senior dog, crossed the rainbow bridge in August 2025. Taking care of Puppo for 2 years was a transformative experience - he even taught me how to age with dignity and grace. I work a full-time hybrid job (2 days remote) and Saturday (10:30-1pm), but my calendar will be as up-to-date as possible! I take your pets’ safety very seriously, and will ask questions during our meet-and-greets to ensure their safety under my care. Additionally, I’ll take pictures during walks and cuddles/playtime, and be as communicative as possible. As a dog mom who has used Rover many times, I understand what many parents need!

“Janayah is a lovely cat sitter and I highly recommend her. She read and followed all my instructions and took good care of my cat Luna. She provided a couple photos each visit. She played with Luna, kept the litter tidy for her, made sure her food plates were cleaned out and rotated. She has been very responsive in her communication and handled everything well while I was away on vacation. I came back to seeing everything neat and clean in the house as well.”

About: I've grown up with dogs of all ages, giving me a natural understanding of their needs. I'm patient, attentive, and experienced with puppies and senior dogs. My lifelong experience helps me provide tailored care and make every dog feel safe and loved. I've had my dog for 6 years, and caring for her is a natural part of my daily routine. Every day, I make sure she's well-fed, take her on walks, and spend quality time playing in the garden or exploring the forest together. We have fun games like hide-and-seek, which keeps her mentally and physically active. Evenings are often spent cuddling on the couch while watching TV, creating a strong bond of trust and comfort. Pet care isn’t just a task for me—it’s part of my life, filled with love, attention, and a deep understanding of a dog’s needs I prioritize safety and comfort by providing a secure, clean environment where pets feel at ease. I follow each pet's routine, ensuring they feel at home. I’m attentive to their needs, offering regular walks, playtime, and affection. Trust is key—I communicate openly with owners to provide peace of mind and consistent care tailored to their routine and needs.

About: As a lifelong animal lover and proud dog mom to my Shiba Inu, Roxy, I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can completely trust. I treat every dog in my care like they’re part of my own family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s individual personality and routine. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply relaxing with someone nearby, I’m happy to tailor my care to their needs. I understand the importance of sticking to feeding schedules, administering basic medications if needed, and keeping you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you have peace of mind. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly, and your furry family member will receive lots of affection, supervision, and personalized care. I know every pet is unique, and my goal is to make them feel as comfortable and happy as possible while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! Hi! I’m Gisselle, a devoted dog lover and proud dog mom to my friendly Shiba Inu, Roxy. I know that leaving your pet with someone else is a big decision, so my goal is to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable home where your dog feels like part of the family. Every pup in my care receives plenty of affection, exercise, playtime, and individualized attention based on their unique personality and routine. I understand that every dog is different, so I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and personality to make their stay as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter pace, I’ll provide the care and attention they need to feel happy and comfortable. I also believe communication is just as important as exceptional care. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and videos throughout your pet’s stay, so you can enjoy your time away knowing they’re safe, loved, and having a great time. I treat every dog as if they were my own, and I would be honored to care for your furry family member. I look forward to welcoming them into our home and giving them a fun, safe, and loving home away from home. Our home features a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely run, explore, sunbathe, and play under close supervision. Whether your pup enjoys playing fetch, going for walks, lounging in the sun, or simply curling up for a cozy nap, they’ll have a comfortable and secure environment where they can feel relaxed and at home.

“Caitlin was so great!! She was super quick to respond and attentive to all of my cat’s needs. My cat is timid, but Caitlin was so patient and caring. Caitlin also made sure to send lots of photos and detailed reports. Would definitely recommend!”

About: Our Why? We have Huskies, and while still offering our service to other breeds, we highlight that it takes a fellow Husky owner to understand what a Husky needs. Despite their mischievous shenanigans, Houdini escape attempts, endless fur-sheddings, high-pitched vocalizations, bubbly, energized personalities, and hyperactive frolicking, we adore huskies. We understand finding experienced, dependable, loving, and trustworthy caregivers for your Husky isn't easy. That's why we are here to help. We currently have two friendly young huskies (one male and one female- fixed and crate-trained). We also have experience with English bulldogs, Sharpeis, Chow-Chows, Labs, Doodles, and Boxers. We only offer care for dogs based upon the comfortability of the match to our pet-care style and demeanor. We love our pets as we will love yours. We are focused on weekends, holidays, and summer care. We are open to possible weekday arrangements if your dog is crate-trained. Before booking us, a drop-by visit is required to test the compatibility of all humans and dogs. A few things: Special note-while we have never owned a French bulldog, we are particularly interested in learning to care for this breed. Your pet must be spayed or nurtured to receive boarding in our home. Also, we are sorry but we cannot offer care for full or mixed Pit Bull breeds. How does pet care fit into your daily and weekly lives? Our pets receive two meals a day, comprising dry food and water. Our pets are crate-trained and remain crated when owners are away. Most of the time, there is an adult in the house. Our dogs can access a large fenced backyard with green grass and trees. Our dogs walk with owners through nearby Branch Brooke Park and visit the dog park almost daily. Our dogs are crated during adult meal times and sleep in the main bedroom on the floor, side couch, or end of bed at night. We maintain a clean home and provide puppy pads during inclement weather to avoid mud and chaos. Pets have access to some rooms, but not all rooms in the house. Toys and treats are provided regularly. Linens on beds where animals may sleep are washed and switched out regularly. Our gate is blocked off on both sides because huskies are known for escaping. Our pets have ID collars and ID dog tags and wear GPS trackers during the day. Our dogs are up-to-date on immunizations and have been spayed/neutered. We don't hit our dogs with our hands or objects but use basic word commands. Training dogs is always a work in progress. They are both loved for their uniqueness. We only plan to care for pets in our home. We have a large and welcoming home.

“Jade did a great job with drop-in visits for George. She was dependable and communicative throughout, and we really appreciated her letting us know in advance when she was running late on one of the visits. George was well cared for, and everything was handled smoothly overall. We felt comfortable having her in our home.”

“Mirielle showed up on time and took good care of Bootsy. She's pleasant to both dogs and their associated humans. It made a long night out more fun because we didn't have to worry about Bootsy.”

“Sadi is the absolute best. She really made our cat happy and paid attention to the small details. She went above and beyond to make sure that our cat was well taken care of during our vacation. If you want someone that is trustworthy and will care for your pet with love, Sadi is the one!!”

“Kelly is the absolute best. This was our first time on Rover, and her communications were clear and quick, and she did great work reassuring us that our pup was in good hands. Loved the photographs, and really appreciated the time she took to communicate with us by phone and by text. We’re only slightly concerned that our pup now likes her more than us! 😀 Hugely impressed with Kelly - she’ll take fab care of your pups.”

About: I've been a cat mom for four years now, so I know what it means to have your cat in the best care so that your mind is at ease while you're away from them. My Cat Lavender is a sweet, chill, sociable cat that loves to eat Lol. My apartment is cat-proof with all the toys and supplies needed to make your cat stay comfortable and enjoyable. I also have a Vet on speed dial in case of any emergencies. Book your Cat stay! Lavender and I would love to have you. I currently work remotely from home. I only go out to go food shopping, and I go on my daily 45-minute walks. If I have any social or travel plans, I will block out the days in my schedule. I live in an apartment that's fully secured and cat-proof with all the toys and supplies needed to make your cat stay comfortable and enjoyable.

About: Currently a medical student. I've been the primary care provider for our family dog and my best friend "Bama" for the past 11 years. I'm also the go-to friend and family dog sitter whenever the need arises. I have earned trust due to my love of life as a biologist and as a respected Eagle Scout. I know each life form has its own beautiful soul and should be treated with kindness and respect for that reason. I have pet care experience with dogs, cats, mice, and fish. I am currently a medical school, therefore, unemployed and have a lot of time to walk, play with, and give long belly scratches to furry friends. Animals make me extremely happy, so their happiness is also of utmost importance to me. Outside of my own personal experiences interacting with pets, I have also taken many courses in animal behavior and the biological basis of animal learning. I have a very solid understanding of why animals do the things they do and this allows me to adapt to whatever circumstances and/or needs of the pets or animals that I interact with. Whether that be crating a dog, training a rebellious puppy, or interactions with other dogs.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and understand that every pet has unique needs at every stage of life. I helped care for my family’s West Highland Terrier for nearly 18 years, giving me experience with everything from energetic puppy years to the extra patience and attention senior dogs need. I also have experience caring for my parents’ young dog, dogs in my extended family and am comfortable keeping up with playful, active pets. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners peace of mind that they’re in caring, dependable hands. I work as a public school music and performing arts teacher. I also teach private music lessons in the late afternoons (typically between 4:00 and 7:00 PM, Monday through Thursday), but I’m happy to work with clients to find times that fit their pets’ needs. Depending on location and scheduling, I may also be able to accommodate visits between lessons. I also have availability on Fridays and weekends, making it easier to provide reliable, consistent care. I believe communication is key and will always do my best to be flexible while ensuring your pet receives the attention and care they deserve. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is helping them feel comfortable by keeping them in their familiar routine. I’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any other preferences you have for your pet’s care. Whether your pet enjoys lots of attention or prefers a quieter approach, I’ll tailor my care to their individual personality and needs. I’ll also treat your home with the same respect I would my own, ensuring everything is left clean, secure, and just as I found it. After each visit, I’ll send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: Hi my name is Amanda, I am a recent graduate. I’m a huge animal lover and I’ve had experience pet sitting and caring for animals for about 4 years now. I’ve had a fur baby of my own named Leo who sadly passed from epilepsy. I am responsible and will treat your pet like it is my own. I will update you frequently on how your pet is doing and respond quickly to any questions you may have. It is my pleasure to get your services set up so that your fur babies can experience outstanding care while you are away. I would love to welcome your furry family member! I currently work full-time, but I have a flexible schedule and do my best to accommodate pet care requests. I’m off on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, making me available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, or daycare. On Fridays, I work from 4:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and am available for visits and walks after my shift. Saturdays are wide open, making them perfect for daytime care, walks, or date-night sitting. On Sundays, I’m available after 6:00 p.m. for evening visits or walks. If your requested time falls outside of my listed availability, feel free to reach out—I’m happy to see if I can make it work! I live in a pet-friendly apartment community with plenty of green space for potty breaks and outdoor time. I'm also just a 3-minute walk from Monte Irvin Park, where dogs can enjoy longer walks, exercise, and fresh air. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment and always follow each pet's routine and any instructions provided by their owner. Whether it's playtime, cuddles, feeding, or medication (if needed), I'll make sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you're away.

About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life, always having a dog and currently caring for four cats. I’ve raised baby kittens, which taught me patience, responsibility, and gentle care. I’m also interested in pursuing a veterinary career, reflecting my commitment to animal well-being. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine through feeding, cleaning, playtime, and quality time. I’m available for boarding on weekends and after 3 PM on weekdays, and I’m flexible to adjust when needed. In my home, I care for pets with patience and genuine love. I take pet care seriously but always make sure animals feel comfortable, relaxed, and happy through consistent routines, attention, and gentle care.

“Erin made home visits to my cats while I was away for 3 weeks. I had just moved and the cats were stressed. I hated to leave them but had to go be with my daughter after she gave birth. Erin made sure to find the really shy cat each visit and give him his food where he was if he wouldn't come out. (He was more timid than usual due to the move.) She took pics each day. She also took care of my dog in her home. I would use her again!”
