Dog Walkers in Fanwood, NJ

“Elaine has been amazing with our dog, Jax! He’s usually pretty shy, but he warmed up to her so quickly. It’s clear she really understands dogs and takes her time to make them feel comfortable. She’s reliable, kind, and clearly loves what she does. We’re so glad we found her!”

About: I have been taking care and pet sitting all kinds of pets and animals since I was 16 years old. I have worked in dog daycares and boarding facilities for around 3 years. I have been trained in dog behavior, temperament, and care. I have a lot of experience with providing dogs and other pets with the proper care they deserve. I love all kinds of animals and want to provide the best care for your pets. I am currently not working so I have lots of available time to provide visits and care for your pets. I am more available during the daytime but can do evening visits as well. I cannot provide care in my own home but I am very open and willing to provide care in my clients home. I love and care about routines so any routine your pet needs to follow I will be able to provide that in my clients home.

“Lisa was great with our dog, Flynn and we appreciated her professionalism and dependability. Her experience with rescue dogs was a plus - knowing they need some patience when introduced to new people - Flynn took to Lisa right away.”

About: I have taken care of cats extensively in the past, cat-sitting for family and friends for weeks at a time. They relied on me to feed and generally care for cats in the past. I am eager to gain more experience with dogs, as I have always had a soft spot for them and absolutely love to walk, play with, and care for them. I currently work 8:00 am to 4:30 pm on weekdays. For now, I am available outside of those hours on weekdays as well as on weekends. In my client's home, I would be sure to follow all routines they have set up for their pet, as well as any other rules they have. During walks and outside of the home care, I would keep a vigilant eye out for the pet to keep them safe, while simultaneously playing and engaging with them so the pet has a fun and positive experience with me.

About: I have fostered over 20 puppies/small dogs in San Diego for the last 2 years and moved to NYC. I have my own Chihuahua terrier mix baby, NooNoo, who has epilepsy so I am familiar with giving medicine and constant attention. I have taken care of friends' cats and dogs for more than 3 weeks. I love taking pictures so I will always provide constant updates if requested. I work remotely so I am available most days and can provide walks, cuddles, belly rubs, playtime, and attention. I work from home so I am available at most times. I will be in contact and can send pictures frequently. I love all animals and will be happy to spend time with your fur-friend :) I love animals and it will be my pleasure to spend time with your pet! I am a great communicator and will always send updates. I will play with your pet and give them scratches and whatever else is needed.

“Mike has been very reliable and responsive, and Maya seems to really take to him easily. Will definitely have Maya walking with him regularly!”

About: I have worked for K9 resorts for about 3 years now, I clean for them, feed them, take them out to play and use the bathroom, and watch over the dogs in the daycare, sometimes 100+ dogs at a time. In addition, family members have always come to me to watch their dogs when they go away, I have many years experience sitting dogs, have been since as long as I can remember. Last but not least my dogs! I have never been without a dog in my house, aside from all my experience outside the house I've been taking care of and walking dogs my whole life. Because of this I consider myself a very experienced dog caretaker/sitter as well as walker. I currently work 6 days a week, for every day except Thursday, my work schedule is 1-7, any of those days I am available for sitting or walking before 12:30pm and after 7:30pm I make sure I know where the dog(s) is/are at all times. Depending on their personality, as I know some dogs may be a bit crazy and some are much more relaxed I would care for them accordingly, like my dog some may love the attention, I can play with the dogs and show them some love, for a more nervous dog I’m no stranger to taking it slow, many dogs at my job can be very nervous and it’s important to know how to approach them as I do. The crazier dogs may need to get some energy out by playing, walking, etc. As for walking the dogs, I am always aware of cars or other dogs/people incase the dog isn’t dog friendly or sometimes people friendly.

About: I’ve had animals ever since I was a child. It’s made me grow up to love them and would do anything for one in need. I’ve rescued multiple off the streets(including rabbits lol). I have my own pets whom are all rescues that I love so much. I only work nights on the weekends. I would love to have something to do involving animals during the days while my kids are in school. Fenced yard. Animal lover home. I also have friendly pets to give your fur baby some companionship while over but also have enough space if that’s not what they like.

About: I have taken care of dogs, mostly friends dogs, for 9years now. Aside from my own dog. Shih Tzus, Labradors, Poodles, Lasso, Boxer, Pitbull, etc. I love dogs since I was 6 when I was gifted my first ever pet. I am a mother and a healthcare worker. The care and love I have for my kids and my patients are the same love and care I give my dogs 🥰 I am currently working fulltime as a Dialysis technician, but my work is only 3 days a week. The rest of the days I do part time house cleaning and pet sitting. My schedule is very flexible. I can give my availability a week before. When dog is with me in our home, we will basically stay indoors and will walk them if they need to pee or poo. I also have a large backyard where we can walk and doo their thing but it is unfenced so I wouldn’t unleash them. I have 2 kids who bith love dogs as well! The older kid can also take care of the dog as he is an adult already. My younger son can always play and accompany the dog too. I am also very comfortable staying in the clients home for a couple of hours or go pickup the dog to walk and do potty time.

“Trisha is super sweet and very communicative. We booked several more walks with her right after her first walk with one of our dogs. Definitely recommend.”

“She was so incredibly sweet and thoughtful. It was a luxury to not have to worry about Hazel while I was at work, I knew she would get the love/cuddles/play she was looking for on days with her. And the ability to relieve someone of stress by a service that she is clearly great at, that’s a win win”
