“Kris was great! Her dogs are super sweet. She has a lot of space for them to run around and play. She took my dog on a walk too! Will definitely come back for more doggy daycare in the near future. Thanks again, Kris!”


“My pup, George, instantly bonded with Jennifer and her pups! He came home happy and tuckered out from a day of play. Jennifer was accommodating, communicative and so sweet--we'll be back!”


About: Have had a pet or two pretty much my whole life, and I'm no spring chicken. Currently mom to a cat, 10 years, and a dog, 7 years. They are spoiled with love and attention. Enjoy the walks with my dog and thought it would be nice to meet more dogs in the neighborhood. To note, when walking your dog(s), mine will be relaxing at home. Also, the walks are good for my health. I don't have any special skills but I'm kind and loving. And it's true, I really do hang out with the pets at a party. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry bundles of happiness. At the moment, my schedule is very open and I can be flexible with it. Weekends are no problem. Early mornings, no problem. Late nights, no problem 😊 I'm a renter so I need to be a bit selective on who I can daycare or board. I can give you more insight once I meet your pup.

“Pelos had a great day with Yvonne! We know she was in good hands. We received updates throughout the day which we enjoyed. We will continue to use her dog sitting services :)”


About: I have grown up with dogs and cats, and I have a cat of my own! I have always loved taking dogs out on walks and snuggling with cats. I have experience taking care of dogs and cats, and the odd reptile or bird, and I love getting the opportunity to gain more experience! I am available weekdays and weekends currently, and when school starts in late September, I will be available only on weekends and weekdays after 4pm. I live in an apartment complex that has a fence around the entire property. There’s a courtyard for dog walking/relief, and my apartment is pet friendly since I own a cat of my own. I walk dogs often, and feed my pets on every morning and night. I have a harness for my cat since he likes going outside, and I know not all cats like that. I give plenty of attention to my pets, and I might spoil them once in a while!

“She was very welcoming and accommodating. My dog has separation anxiety, but she was able to keep him busy and provided helpful distractions. Saipan did an amazing job and I would definitely recommend her services.”


About: I can't imagine life without a dog! All my life I've used common sense and loads of love to care for my furry babies. I am a responsible and very loving pet owner. Since I am retired, my schedule is very flexible; I'm home most of the time. When I do work, it is usually on my computer in short periods. Your baby will receive lots of one-on-one attention and snuggles. I am retired and have lots of space in my home. Although there's no fenced yard, I will take your baby out on a leash and give them loads of love and attention.

About: I grew up training and showing med-large size dogs for 4-H (club) from the age of 10-13. Entered my dog in a dog agility course one of the years. Recently worked at a doggy daycare/training facility for several months. I took an online course about dog safety and health and have handled all sorts of dogs. I've helped raise 3 litters of puppies and sold them to responsible, loving families. I have a huge understanding of dogs and what they need from experience. An interesting fact- When I was 5 I got seriously injured by a pack of dogs but have not let that fear shy me away from challenges when it comes to dogs. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and make time for in my routine. I work a day job during the week, but I’m available for walks, drop-ins, or playtime most evenings after 5 PM. Caring for dogs helps me unwind and stay grounded — it doesn’t feel like work to me. I also aim to open up more availability as I settle into my new job. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect the space and follow the routine and preferences laid out by the owner. I keep things calm, clean, and consistent — whether that’s sticking to feeding times, giving meds if needed, or making sure your pup gets the right amount of exercise and attention. I pay close attention to body language and behavior, so I can respond to a pet’s needs with care and patience. Safety and comfort are top priorities, and I treat every pet as if they were my own — with kindness, respect, and lots of love.

“Katrina was quick to respond to a last minute request for day care for my pup despite having not having previously cared for her. Katrina and her dogs were super friendly and welcoming and my dog had a blast playing with them! I will definitly be reaching out again next time I need a sitter, thanks Katrina!”


“Tanya was AMAZING with regards to our pup. She went above and beyond to make our 3mo old pup feel at home. She was able to adapt to our pups needs and ensured that all of her needs were met. We even got sweet updates and photos on how she was doing :) thank you Tanya!!!”


About: I have taken care of my two cats for a few years and grew up on a farm taking care of all kinds of animals with the same love and care as a house pet. I love all animals no matter their needs or personalities and am dedicated to taking care of your four legged family member. I am currently employed part time with a very flexible schedule and am therefore able to prioritize your beloved pet in my day to day. The only times I am unavailable are between the hours of 6-8 Tuesday and Thursday. I feel very comfortable crating if needed, clipping nails, and running with dogs to give these guys the enrichment and care they need. I have a bike to quickly access your homes when walks are needed.


“alexis was awesome, it’s so convenient that she picks up and drops off the pups! atlas seemed to have a fun day, running around and meeting new friends! he was nice and tired out when he got home after a good long day!”


About: I love taking care of animals and ensuring their safety and well-being, I grew up with multiple animals in my own home and I have been taking care of animals and a job ever since I was 12 years old. I have previously worked professionally at humane societies and other shelters but wanted to continue my career by helping people in the community who need help with their furry family members. I have experience with pets from 3 week old puppies to 15 year old senior animals, I am able to administer medications and stay on top of any special diets that an animal may have. I will go any lengths to make sure that your pet is safe, happy, and healthy! I currently am aiming to work full time on various pet care websites so my focus is entirely on helping people in the community. While any pets are in my home my focus is put entirely on them to ensure happiness and safety. I work out every morning by walking and running around my neighborhood so any dogs will get substantial outdoor time if allowed. While I do live in an apartment there are amazing parks and outdoor pet designated areas where I go to exercise that I can take dogs to run and play. In my home there are no areas that are off limits and I have room for crates if you would like your dog to be crated occasionally.

About: I grew up with dogs my entire life, and I am a responsible cat owner. I work at home and will be available to give your pet the care they deserve :) I work from home, so I am very flexible. I can come to your place, your pet can be housed at mine, or I can come walk your dog at odd hours of the day. I have a 2-bedroom apartment to myself, and I currently have a sweet cat named Trufflepig who is 3 and gets along with both dogs and cats. She can easily be separated if your pup or kitty doesn’t like other animals. I live in a neighborhood that is very dog friendly with a park close by and a fenced in yard a block away where your dog can run.

About: Hi there! I’m a Veterinary Technician with 11 years of experience in small animal medicine. I’m CPR-trained and fully comfortable caring for pets with special needs- whether age related, post surgical or in need of medication administration—oral, injectable, or topical. Whether your pet needs a little extra medical attention or just lots of love and care while you’re away, you can trust that they’re in experienced and compassionate hands. I treat every pet like my own and strive to keep them happy, healthy, and stress-free in your absence. Looking forward to meeting your furry family member! Due to the nature of my job as a veterinary nurse, I have work shifts that typically keep me away for about 8–10 hours a day during my scheduled workdays. Please note that I won’t be physically present with your pet during that tim That said, I always make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and cared for before and after my shifts. I’ll also be sure to keep you updated regularly with photos and messages so you know how they’re doing. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in, medication administration, or extended care, I can fit visits into my daily routine. Your pet will be in capable, caring hands with someone who truly understands their medical and emotional needs. I look forward to meeting your furry friend! When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on maintaining their usual routine to minimize stress and keep them comfortable. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and enrichment tailored to each pet’s personality and needs. I also keep a close eye on their health and behavior—thanks to my medical background, I can quickly spot any signs of concern. Whether it’s feeding, walking, administering medication, or just spending quality time, I aim to make your pet feel safe, happy, and well-cared-for in their own familiar space.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats all my life. I am a current foster with Happy Tails Happy Homes, a marine mammal stranding volunteer, and a wilderness first responder. I would be honored to support you in caring for your fur babies, and will ensure that they are respected, adored, and have all their needs met! I am currently working part time as a kayak guide and an environmental educator. I can be available regularly in the evenings. And may be available intermittently. I have an apartment near the hundred acre woods. I love taking dogs on walks/hikes in the forest, and beaches near my home! We go for frequent adventures in my car which has a Molly mutt hammock for your dogs safety.

Olivia C.

“Olivia was very nice and took good care of Wyatt. She sent pictures and he seemed very at ease with her.”


Sara R.
“Sara has dog and house sat for me several times, as short as a weekend and as long as 3 weeks when I was out of the country. My older dog Luke was abused by his previous owner and was always shy with strangers. However, the first time Sara walked into the house, he went right up to her and leaned against her leg to have his head rubbed. He had never done that before and never since with someone new. When she sits, she regularly sends text and photo updates of how my dogs are doing. As she is also a vet assistant, I have no qualms about leaving them in her care for long periods of time. She is also neat and tidy in the house, which I appreciate after a long trip! I've had several different sitters over the 13 years I've lived in West Orange and Sara is easily the best for overnights.”
