About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and truly enjoy bonding with pets because they feel like a safe space and the most genuine companions. I have 4+ years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, including feeding, playtime, walks, litter box cleaning, giving attention, and making pets feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. Friends, neighbors, and family have relied on me to care for their pets with patience, love, and reliability. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I make time throughout the week for feeding, walks, playtime, check-ins, and giving pets attention, comfort, and companionship while their owners are away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a calm environment. I carefully follow feeding schedules, routines, and any instructions provided by the owner. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior, keep their spaces clean, make sure doors and gates are secure, and give them patience, affection, and gentle care so they feel relaxed and protected.
“One word to describe this family…INCREDIBLE! They treated my Santino like their own. I received so many pictures and videos. Santino was so happy playing with Gaby & Dylan’s two daughters. They took such special care of him and tended to his every need perfectly. Santino wasn’t eating at first but Gaby was on it and he started eating the very next day. We were so worried about leaving our pup for a week but now we have absolutely no more concern. Santino will definitely be going back to Gaby and family. We actually can’t wait!!!!”

“Inna took amazing care of my dog while I was away. She would send me update pictures unprompted and my dog absolutely loved staying with her and her family. I highly recommend Inna to take care of your pets. =)”

“This was the FIRST time I was able to leave my dogs anywhere and actually not worry or stress about how things may be going. Everything from the house space to the family, it’s all just perfect! And I’m extremely picky! So ya just a great experience in every way. I wish all sitters were like this one. Definitely recommend her and I would gladly pay even more than she charges. Totally worth the peace of mind. 10 stars!!”


“Jingwei was great with Rosie. Sent me regular daily updates on my puppy and was very responsive and made sure she was well taken care of. Would definitely book with them again!”

“Heather is the best!!! She is very sweet and sends the best pictures! Chucky loves her, I very highly recommend her. Your doggie will feel exactly at home.”

“And so happy about your service. She made a great job taking care of my dog. She sent me pictures and videos. Definitely, I will contact to her if I need this service again. Thank you very much.”

“Our dog Luna was very lucky to have stayed with Enrique! We felt confident in Luna’s stay as Enrique provided regular updates with photos which reaffirmed Luna was in good hands. She seemed so happy and relaxed. Very grateful for the quality care.”

“Absolutely amazing! Veronika was very caring and attentive to my dog’s needs! I would definitely rebook with her in the future! Thanks again Veronika!”


“Mel always has such fun with Milena and her pup, Lola. Milena is wonderful with Mel and takes him on long walks. We are relieved to know Mel is safe and happy while we are away. Thank you, Milena!”

“Joanne was wonderful with my dog. My dog is a bit anxious and doesn't typically do well with new people but he did amazing! She sent pictures and updates throughout the stay. We had a slight hiccup in our trip and Joanne was very accommodating! I am happy to have booked with her!”

“Emerald was lovely and communicative! She sent me lots of photos of my dog and hers playing and hanging out together while I was away, and she was very flexible and understanding regarding arrival and pickup times. Stevie clearly had a wonderful time <3”

“Jhazmin is an absolutely amazing pet-sitter. She was able to watch our two dogs (6 year old corgi and 6 month old Aussie) within a day’s notice. She’s so friendly and made sure she asked us everything she needed to know to ensure our pups would enjoy their stay. She sent us pictures multiple times a day, every day. One of her pictures was probably one of the best photos of our Aussie that we’ll ever have. Jhazmin’s home as a sizable, fenced in yard that our pups enjoyed every day. Any feelings of anxiety or worry were immediately extinguished after meeting Jhazmin. (I kind of want to keep her a secret so she’ll always be available for us! But Jhazmin truly deserves an glowing review.) I highly recommend Jhazmin!”

“Michael watched our doggo, Hastings, while we were away on an anniversary trip. While we were away, Michael was communicative and flexible when we had some travel issues. We felt confident that Hastings was in great hands! We would absolutely book with Michael again!”

“Katherine was a blessing to me and my Milo!!! She's seriously the pup whisperer or something! He was SO happy to go with her when we arrived to her place, and he was even happier when I picked him up! We had a meet and greet prior to scheduling the dog boarding, and he was happy with her then too. Plenty of besos from my sweet baby boy! I knew she was the one to give my pup the love he needed that I couldn't give to him while I was away! She kept me up to date with so many pictures and text updates throughout the whole stay. It really relieved any worries that I had about his stay. She was super responsive, prompt, organized, and sweet. She made sure my first dog boarding experience was a perfect one! I would certainly recommend her services for dogs who are very friendly! She takes up to 3 clients at a time and Milo's great with socialization so that was perfect for this high energy friendly pup!! I look forward to using her services for more dog boarding stays in the future with my Milo! Thanks, Katherine!”

About: I’ve loved animals my whole life. I grew up with my family dog Murphy and I had the opportunity to raise my own pets Chichi, Purple, and Marshmallow as an adult. I recently lost my dog and have been missing the comfort of having an animal around. During the week, I work from home, so I’d be there to provide care throughout the day and tend to whatever needs your dog has. I currently work from home, so I’ll be available around the clock to tend to your dog’s wants and needs. I regularly go on walks around my neighborhood during the week and try to fit a hike or park day on the weekends, so your dog would get exercise and lots of playtime. I live in a dog-friendly apartment building and have a spacious unit. I’m a very organized and clean person, so I don’t have clutter around the apartment that your dog could get into. I’m happy to accommodate any specific requests that you have as well since every dog is different!

Mauree was absolutely amazing with Zoey! From start to finish, communication was prompt, friendly, and reassuring. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear that Mauree truly loves dogs and treats them like family. We will definitely be booking again!

Highly recommend Tanacka. When I tell you she is amazing, she is amazing. My 2 fur babies was treated like family and made sure medication was given. My babies had daily exercise and alot of affection time. I will definitely Book with her again in the near future

Melissa was super understanding of my dog's needs. She treated my dog like it was her own child. Honestly, she was probably better than I was. I look forward to using her again and again. My dog was super happy for the week she was there. Keep up the good work! Next time I will have peace of mind while I'm on the beach getting much needed relaxation. Thank you!!

I would highly recommend Megany. It’s the first time that we have left them with someone else and we could not have asked for a better person to take care of our doggies. She would update us every day with pictures and communication was great. After a weeks stay they were very happy and healthy. We would definitely book with her again in the future.

Diana and her mom took good care of my baby Muffin while I traveled. They always sent the cutest pictures and videos assuring me my dog was happy and well taken care of. Diana was very professional , loving and caring. I would definitely trust my Muffin fur baby with her again.

Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Many sitters in NJ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
