Dog Walkers in Fortescue, NJ

About: I absolutely love dogs and have been caring for them for years. What sets me apart is the genuine passion and experience I bring to every pet I look after. Whether it’s training playful puppies, making senior dogs feel comfortable, or just giving lots of love and attention, I treat every dog like part of our family. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and well-being are always our top priorities. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine very easily because I have flexible schedules, which leaves me with plenty of free time. I am able to give pets the attention and care they deserve throughout the day. In some cases, even my roommate can help out if needed, making sure there’s always someone available to look after your pet. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with them by my side, and to me, they’ve never just been pets — they’re family. I honestly feel like the love and loyalty you get from a dog is something truly special, and sometimes I realize I’ve trusted and cared for dogs more easily than some people! In just the last few years, I’ve had the joy of caring for over 30 different dogs, each one leaving a little pawprint on my heart. Every dog has their own personality, and I love getting to know what makes each one unique — whether they’re shy and gentle or playful and full of energy. When I’m taking care of your dog, whether at my home or yours, I do everything I can to make sure they feel relaxed, loved, and happy — like they’re on their own little vacation while you’re away. I’m big on keeping routines, because I know how important it is for dogs to feel at home. If there are any special diets, medications, or habits your pup needs, just let me know — I’ll stick to them closely. I’ll also send lots of photo and text updates because I know how much it means to see that your dog is doing well. I truly treat every dog like they’re my own — with love, patience, playtime, and plenty of cuddles if they want them. Can’t wait to meet your best friend and make sure they have the best time while you’re away!

About: I have been an animal lover my entire life. I have had a variety of all animals such as dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, bearded dragons, etc for as long as I can remember. I’ve had exposure to animals of all age ranges. In the past, I have had senior dogs who have had seizure disorders and provided comfort care for them until the end including medications, pain management and helping them through challenging moments from their medical conditions. My focus and goal being apart of your pets care is to provide them a safe, comfortable, friendly environment while under my care and also just having fun! I have had dogs that I have worked with on behavioral modification training, leash training, potty training, etc. Although I am not a certified trainer, I have had exposure to reward and positive reinforcement training and have worked on this closely with a trainer and my own animals and have seen the benefits. I am looking forward to being a positive impact on your sanity and your pets care! I currently am out of work and expecting a little one! With all of my free time, I’d love to put it towards doing something I love and enjoy, spending it with animals! In my clients home, I would ensure that all pets needs are met with food, water, stimulation with play, etc. For safety I would leash the pet before opening the door for a walk and ensuring the pet is tamed and not too excitable walking out the door to avoid any accidents. I would utilize any tools the owner provided such as crates, gates, etc while caring for the pet. For care in my home, I have a fenced in yard and 4 dogs, 2 cats. I would slowly introduce them to each other and have gates available along with 3 different floors in my home to separate if need be. I have crates available if needed to give space. I am always home and would never need to leave your pet alone! I have plenty of toys and treats ready to go!

About: I've taken care of all different types of animals my entire life, from turtles and snakes to dogs and cats and I love them all, so don't ask which is my favorite! I am a wildlife expert by day and a pet lover by night! I spend most of my time with family and studying wildlife. I am able to make most schedules work and will be able to accommodate most care requests provided. I will also be able to care for pets overnight! I am able to do most services, from simple pet sitting and dog walking. Having taken care of a variety of pets for more than a decade has given me experience to deal with most situations. I take great care of all my pets and will treat anyone else's like they are my own.

About: I provide 24 hour a day care for your pet while you are away. I have relatively high availability. I am trained and certified in canine CPR and first aid. I also have experience with pocket pets, reptiles, and farm animals. I work with animals of all sizes and shapes. I can also provide training if asked. I am working towards earning my vet-tech certification. I am very flexible willing to work with you and your dog. I am always willing to go above and beyond for your pet. Rover is my only job, and I pride myself in the quality of care I am able to give. Your Fur-Babies are my only focus. I provide 24-hour supervision, long walks (it has not been uncommon for me to do mile-long walks with the dogs), frequent potty breaks, and lots of playtime.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and temperaments since I was 10. With over 7 years of experience, I’ve been trusted by friends, family, and neighbors to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets. Whether it’s energetic puppies or gentle senior dogs, I always treat them like my own-with patience, love, and attention to detail. I’m currently home full-time, so I have a very flexible schedule to care for your pets! I’m available every day for walks, drop-ins, sitting, or boarding-weekdays and weekends. Your pet will get plenty of attention, playtime, and care whenever they need it. I live in a pet-friendly apartment and am just steps away from several parks-perfect for walks, playtime, and potty breaks. The building is secure and quiet, and I always create a calm, comfortable environment for your pet. I can also crate your dog if needed and follow any specific routines to help them feel right at home.

About: I’ve been taking care of all kinds of animals since I was a child — I have lots of experience with large dogs, multi-pet households, and less common pets like reptiles, fish, farm animals, and birds. I work remotely and on my own schedule, so any times or dates that I don’t already have commitments for are convenient for me, making it easy for me to fit into your schedule. I’m very mindful of doing things the way a client wants them to be done in terms of both pet-sitting and house-sitting, so I love having written out instructions to keep things organized and easy to adhere to. I love spending time with animals in an environment where they’re comfortable and happy, and they’ll get plenty of my time and attention while I’m there.

“Kenneth watched Linc for 5 days while I was on vacation. The dogs loved him at a meet and greet before I left. Kenneth was reliable and worked with me to get details worked out. I got notifications, pictures and updates on each walk which was nice. I'd be more than happy to use him again.”

About: I have a deep love and compassion for animals, and caring for them brings me true joy and fulfillment. Whether it's feeding, grooming, or simply spending time with them, I find great purpose in making sure they feel safe, healthy, and loved. I enjoy learning about their unique behaviors and needs, and I take pride in being gentle, patient, and responsible. I work part time under 20 hours a week which allows me to take care of my babies and allows to me to take care of yours as well. every animal is unique and each requires different needs. whether it be diet restriction to different toys they like the most. the most important thing is making sure your pet is comfortable around me and to make it as easy as possible for your pet to enjoy being with someone else that they are not used to yet.

“Jacqueline is a wonderful choice for looking after your pet! She is very responsive and makes sure that my dog Mac is taken care of and loved. We trust her to come by and take our pup for a walk while we are at work. Would recommend her for anyone needing help!”

About: Hello ! My name is Amanda and I have been around dogs my entire life. I’ve recently moved into a new house and am looking to get back into helping you and your pets ! I have never known what it is like to live in a house without at least one dog and I don't think I ever will. I started pet sitting for family and friends about 8 years ago and haven't looked back. I have experience with all different breeds ranging from Huskies to Chihuahuas. I also have experience with there being more than one dog in the house so that is no problem. I currently have two dogs, Leo and Koda. Leo is a 11 year old Terrier/Toy Collie mix and Koda is a 8 year old Catahoula mix. I recently added an addition to the family and now have a 1 year old cat named Sushi as well! I a have experience with other animals such as birds, reptiles, rabbits, etc., so I can gladly help out with anything along those lines as well. I would love to help you and your furry friends out ! I can also provide references upon request :) I currently work remotely full time so I am home all week. I am also able to leave periodically during the morning and afternoon for walks and can work remotely from anywhere if house sitting is required. I have a very flexible schedule ! I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs. My cat also thinks he’s a dog and is very friendly and social. I also have lots of space if your animal needs to be crated at any point.

My husband who is also an animal lover will be here to help take care of your pet. And if weather permits and we are able we often take our dogs out for walks on pet friendly trails to give them a change of scenery. I do have some requirements to make sure all pets visiting and staying with us are kept safe and healthy. I do not take aggressive dogs, and I do require that all dogs are up to date on Rabies vaccine, distemper and bordetella, for their safety and health as well as other pets that are coming into the house. I want you to be well assured that while your pet is staying with me that they will be well taken care of and treated like a family member.

Pets are not allowed out front unless leashed. I do require documentation of updated Rabies, Distemper and Bordetella vaccines.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals all my life from my own pets to pets of friends and family, which includes being responsible for them from time to time. I’ve even had prior experience staying overnight and caring for animals that include dogs, cats, and chickens. I am a full time student in law school so my schedule depends on my classes and my school obligations for the week. However, I try hard to manage all bookings I get if the owners are willing to be flexible with times! I can care for your pet by walking them, playing with them, feeding them, hugging them, grooming them, and even staying with them overnight if that makes them more comfortable while you are away.

About: I do it all. I walk/run with dogs of all sizes. I'm not worried about getting dirty. If your dog gets dirty, bath time is my favorite. Clean up all messes including in your own yard. I tuck dogs in for bedtime. I will bring your dog to his/her vet appointments if need be. I love to cuddle no matter the breed as long as your dog likes it too. I have experience with "troublesome" dogs and might even be able to provide some tips that have helped me in my experience. If you have other pets I will care for them too. I have experience with cats, birds, tarantulas, turtles, fish, lizards, rabbits, chickens, horses, and small rodents. Most importantly, I will contact you upon every arrival and departure with details on the visit.
