Dog Sitting Emerson

About: Seven years fostering dogs for three rescue organizations and one year as a Senior Yard Manager at a dog daycare, supervising care, behavior, and safety. have seven years of experience fostering dogs for three different rescue organizations and one year of experience as a Senior Yard Manager at a dog daycare, supervising dog groups, ensuring safety, and supporting daily operations. Although I don't have a fenced yard, I make sure every dog gets plenty of exercise through long neighborhood walks, active playtime, and lots of attention. Dogs are welcome on my furniture, including the bed and couch, and they can sleep in my bed or in a crate based on your preferences. I also enjoy making stuffed Kongs as an evening treat or enrichment activity if you'd like your dog to have one.

“Amazing. Amanda went above and beyond taking care of our grumpy old lady and rambunctious kitten! She followed all of my ridiculous instructions and sent lots of photos and video. I can tell that she loves animals and cares for them as if they are her own. Great communication too. We will def be requesting to book again! Thank you so much!”

About: I have 4 years of experience caring for dogs and understand how important it is to have someone dependable looking after your pet. Since I work remotely, I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day for walks, check-ins, feeding, playtime, and pet sitting. I’m located in the Rochelle Park/Paramus area and already spend a lot of my day caring for and walking my own dog. I’m comfortable adjusting to each dog’s routine, personality, and energy level. I may also be available for boarding depending on your dog’s comfort level and whether it’s a good fit with my home environment. I work remotely, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pet throughout the day. My schedule mainly revolves around occasional work meetings, and outside of those I can adjust my day for walks, check-ins, feeding, playtime, and other needs. I’m available throughout the week and can work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s normal routine. Every pet is different, so my goal is to follow the routine and instructions you provide as closely as possible. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality, comfort level, habits, and needs while building trust with them over time. Whether I’m walking your dog, checking in, or pet sitting, I’ll make sure they’re comfortable, cared for, and treated like I would want someone to treat my own dog.

About: I’ve had animals all my life including cats, dogs, and I had a rabbit once. I’ve helped take care of sick dogs and cats, and have taken care of puppies and kittens. I was also apart of my animal club in high school where I got to donate to animal shelters and interacted with animals in that setting. I have a flexible schedule, so pet care can easily be a regular part of my day and week. I really enjoy spending time with animals and am happy to structure my routine around their needs, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company. I want every pet in my care to feel comfortable, loved, and well taken care of while their family is away. I care for every pet as if they were my own! I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while sticking to their normal routine as much as possible. I’m happy to follow any feeding, walking, medication, playtime, or bedtime instructions you provide. I also keep a close eye on their behavior and make sure their space stays clean and comfortable. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely at ease.

“Joannie was a great sitter to work with. Our dogs were happy to get some attention while we were away and she kept us updated with great pictures! All went smoothly and look forward to booking with her again!”

“Erica is a devoted dog lover and sitter. From the very beginning (soon after my initial request) and all throughout her visits, she kept in regular contact and always communicated clearly and kindly. Our dog Ranger never had it so good. She kept us updated with photos of his activities and the love and care she provided. We'll definitely have her back. She has our highest recommendation!”

About: I have been watching dogs for 7 years now and have a special spot for elderly dogs, and dog that are anxious. But I have experience with a wide range of ages and breads. I have experience with dogs with anxiety as well as giving oral medication to dogs and have many repeat owners coming to me. They all feel loved and special at my home. Which is why I only watch one dog at a time to give my full attention to them as well as it helps most anxious types to be alone. I also love giving dogs a bath if the owner is ok with it AND the dogs are ok with it 🙂 I have a somewhat flexible schedule for my job. I walk the dogs in the morning and leave around 9am and am usually back 3pm (Monday-Wednesday). When I come home in the afternoon I give the dog another walk as well as their evening walk. I am pretty flexible and am present most times and I am very free from Thursdays through the weekend. This depends on the personality of the dog. If the dog loves being pet, they can hang with me on my couch where they are pet. If they love playing I throw the ball around with them. I am attentive to their food and drink and talk to them 😂 and let them know how cute they are. Every dog is different in what they like and need for their care. So that is something that is discussed before hand with the client.

“Alexander was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Ranger. He was attentive, responsive, and genuinely caring. I could tell Ranger was in great hands the entire time. Alexander followed all of my instructions carefully and handled small changes to the plan with ease and flexibility. I felt completely at ease knowing Ranger was being so well cared for. I’d highly recommend Alexander.”

“Nicole was great! Booked drop-ins on pretty short notice and Nicole was flexible & gave great updates & pictures on our kitty who had actually just been missing for a few days & was recovering and had some slight injuries still-she was super sweet & helpful - would definitely use Nicole again!!”

About: I currently work at one of the top-rated doggy daycares in Elmwood Park, where I’ve had the opportunity to gain hands-on experience caring for dogs of all different personalities, sizes, and needs. I’ve always had a genuine love for dogs and have grown up around them my entire life, learning how to care for them with patience, attentiveness, and compassion. Working with dogs is something that comes naturally to me, and I truly enjoy creating a safe, happy, and comfortable environment where every dog feels loved and cared for. I work morning shifts five days a week, typically from 6 AM to 1 PM, which leaves my afternoons and evenings open for pet care. My days off vary each week, but I’m flexible and love dedicating my free time to caring for animals. I’m available whenever I’m not working and will always make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, love, and care. 🐾 I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and completely at home. My own pets are my spoiled babies, and I make sure they have everything they need to live their happiest lives from plenty of playtime and attention to regular meals, potty breaks, and the freedom to be their silly, lovable selves. I create a calm, caring environment where pets can feel comfortable, be themselves, and know they’re in loving hands. When caring for someone else’s pet, I treat them with that same patience, affection, and care I would want for my own.

I work from home, for the most part, so my schedule is pretty flexible, which also helps to ease the minds of any anxious pups. I have a fenced in yard with lots of space to run around and hang out. My neighborhood is also pretty quiet for nice, safe walks.

About: I love playing with my dog and always make sure he is feed, walked, and is having fun. I have also been around a few different animals and always try to taylor how I treat them towards them. At 8:30am and 6:00pm my dog gets a walk and I let out my dog whenever he stands by my back door into my fenced in yards where he is free do do as he pleases (there is nothing dangerous back there). I walk him around 30 min after his meals so he get a good bowel movement in. I would alway try to leave everything as it is and only to touch what I am instructed too. The would be taken the upmost care of.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over five years, and I have two small dogs of my own that I love. I’m organized, responsible, and attentive, and I provide each dog with personalized care, walks, and playtime. I also prioritize clear communication with owners, just as I appreciate when someone cares for my own pets. I’m available all week, including weekends. Just reach out and we can discuss your schedule. I kindly ask owners to be honest about their pets’ needs and behavior so I can provide the best care and avoid any issues during their stay. I prefer to care for pets at my home, where I can provide a safe and comfortable environment. I offer boarding only for small dogs, as I live on a 2nd floor, and I have a backyard where pets can play at least twice a day, along with neighborhood walks. My goal is for every dog to have a happy and enjoyable stay. For any specific details or questions, feel free to contact me.
