“Deanna is always extremely responsive, attentive, and an absolute delight. She’s our go to for when we are away and need Loki our dog to be taken care of. Extremely flexible and we highly recommend. Thank you, Deanna!!”
“Eilleen is AMAZING!!! Benji is our little rescue cutie! But he has days where he is a bit unpredictable- He is a cuddle bug on his own terms, can be moody and antisocial. As his "fun" aunt (I'm treat and playtime central haha) you would think he would jump for joy at the chance to take a walk with me but, that isn't the case :( He is very particular about who walks him and only let's his dad walk him. So on days dad is working overtime, I stress about how I will convince Benji to go outside. One Sunday he refused to go out they entire day, not one budge and just hid under the table. Dad was working and I was stressing! Well, Eilleen to the rescue! Upon arrival Benji greeted her at the door, like they were forever friends, hopping, tail wagging and cuddles! In amazement I watch Eilleen put kn his leash with out any hesitation from Benji and in a matter of minutes they were off on their walk together! I am so amazed by the instant connection they have and Eilleens impressive job of caring for him. We are so very thankful!! Thank you Eilleen!!!!!!! You are truly the BEST!!”
“Britany, Has been walking my 4-5 month old puppy for the last couple of weeks and we have been very happy with her services. For our meet& greet she asked about our pups routines, commands our pup knows, and how he should be rewarded. She has been reliable and Rider really enjoys her visits.”
“I highly recommend Ewelina. Ewelina was great with my Rosie. My Rosie who’s a Shih Tzu can be a little difficult at times but was happy to have Ewelina. When she refused to go out for a walk, Ewelina was able to play with her and coax her into putting on her harness and leash. She took great care of her between walking and playing. Will definitely use her again.”
“Rhea and Michael should be the first person booked in the Northern NJ area. We forgot to leave the device to get into the house today and they stuck around while I came home to let them in. Our previous dog walker from rover would have said they walked the dog and left. They go above and beyond every time. Simply the best!!!!!!”
“Jonny is absolutely amazing!! He is so kind, professional, flexible and (most importantly) incredible with our dog. We feel very lucky to have found him and know that our dog is always in the best hands with him!”
About: I’m excited for the opportunity to care for your dog! I was a dog owner, and your pet would be so welcome in my home. I miss the company & retirement makes pet care a perfect opportunity. I’m currently retired, and have a flexible schedule during the week. I’m free to give your pet the love & attention they need during the day. I currently have no pets in our home, so your pet will get my full attention. My backyard is fenced in & I have a wonderful neighborhood for walks.
About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life, have one dog and 2 cats of my own now! My babies are my life and i will ensure to take great care of your babies too!! I have experience with administering meds (oral and topical), physical therapy post surgery (my pup had ACL surgery), long walks, and lots cuddles! I will always ensure a safe environment for your fur babies I’m currently not working a 9–5, which means your pet gets my full attention. I have a flexible schedule and can easily work around your needs—whether that’s early morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening cuddle sessions. I’m available weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and I’m happy to accommodate last-minute requests. If your schedule changes unexpectedly (because life happens!), I can usually adjust on my end to make sure your pet’s routine stays consistent and stress-free. Your pet won’t be “fit into” my schedule—they’ll be my schedule. 🐾 Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I’m very comfortable walking dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I make sure every walk is secure—using well-fitted harnesses or leashes, avoiding overly crowded areas, and paying close attention to traffic, weather, and other dogs. I love giving pets the exercise they need—whether that’s a brisk walk, a gentle stroll for seniors, or an energetic game of fetch. Cuddle time and playtime are always included, so your pet feels loved and cared for. I also have a fully fenced yard, perfect for safe, supervised off-leash time if your dog enjoys a good run or game of chase. I’m always outside with them during yard time, making sure they’re happy, healthy, and safe!
“Hailey was amazing, perfectly on time and gave us options of where we’d like our dog walked. She took him on a nice long walked and tired him out for us which we always love! Also loveddd the pictures she included.”
About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was 18 years old. I’m experienced in giving medications to dogs who need it. I take them on walks during the day (if that’s something they are used to) and give them lots of attention. My work schedule is very flexible. Making it easy to stay with pets for longer periods of time during the day. With only some evening events for work, pets get the most attention while sitting. I have been watching pets at their own home, I go above and beyond with love while their parent is away. I make sure the get all the attention they miss while their parents are away.
About: I am a full-time pet sitter who is reliable, detail-oriented, and funny. I have been providing professional pet care services for dogs and cats for the past 12 years. I am available for both short-notice and regularly scheduled walks. Should you require overnight visits, I am also available to provide care for your pet in your home. Our pet care relationship begins with a phone call or e-mail to discuss your pet's needs. After that, we will have a consultation to meet and further discuss the particulars of your pet's needs and my visits with your pet. You can rest assured that your pet is well cared for because after each visit I will leave a note detailing how your pet was during the visit. For overnight visits, I will e-mail or text the details of the visit to you. I look forward to speaking with you and caring for your pet! I am a full time pet sitter so I am always available to give your pets the one on one love and attention they deserve. I have been providing overnight care for pets for twelve years. When pets are kept in their home environment they’re much more comfortable than in a boarding facility.
About: I've had pets since I was a baby, and have taken care of them my whole life! I've been trusted to watch over others' pets since I was 10. I have experience taking care of a senior dog, and helping raising puppies and kittens! I am open to watching and walking any pet of any size! I'm currently a college student living in a dorm, so for now I cannot board. My schedule is flexible, and I'll have time to walk dogs every day! I will also have time to stop in and check on your fur-babies. I am open all day every Friday, Saturday and Sunday! I will spend as much time as needed with your pets in your home, including feeding and cleaning up after them! I love spending time with any animal and will gladly befriend your pet!

Knowing Kristy is with our kitties brings a sense of calm to our trips that is priceless. She sends nightly updates and always lets us know if there are any changes with the cats. We cannot recommend her enough. Hire her now and you will never regret it.”

“Kaitlyn has been in love with animals as long as I’ve known her! We have had dogs, cats and a guinea pig for a short time when Kaitlyn was little. She was always kind and gentle with all of them. We now have three cats and one dog. Kaitlyn walks and feeds our dog and takes care of the cats when she’s here (food, water, litter, etc). She knows exactly what they need. She also takes care of many other animals in our neighborhood in NJ. She’s very responsible because she is so caring for these animals! Everyone loves her!”
