Dog Sitting Franklin Lakes

About: At my house, your pets will be family! I have about 16 years of experience with caring for cats and dogs, including my own. I look forward to meeting your pet :) I naturally build pet care into my daily routine with morning and evening visits for feeding, walks, and quality time. I keep my schedule organized so pets get consistent care, and I’m happy to accommodate midday visits when locations are nearby. I really enjoy making pet care a calm, dependable part of my day. I treat every pet like they’re my own. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their routine so pets feel comfortable and secure, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, or just their usual hangout spots. I keep the environment clean and calm, and I always make sure they get attention and affection. If pets are in my home, they’ll have a safe, relaxed space with lots of supervision, love, and consistency throughout the day.

About: I am an experienced dog owner of over 20 years (cats over 10 years). No issue with breed size as I have owned dogs ranging from Bichon size to Rottweilers! Your pets will feel loved and comfortable here in our home. I work from home full time so will have more than enough time to give your pet all of the attention they crave! Walks, play, and feeding times can all be scheduled to your pet's needs. My yard is fully fenced and large enough for fun playtime. My home is large and has wide space for indoor play. Your pet will have my full attention all day as I work from home!

“Nicole was great in setting up, and coming by for a drop-in for our pet. She is clearly passionate about animals and perhaps more just as importantly is a great communicator, which for me as a first time rover user was reassuring. Would definitely recommend her services. Thanks Nicole!”

About: I've always had pets in my life! I've cared for a wide variety, from giant dogs to tiny ones, as well as special-needs cats and so much more. Each experience has enriched my life in unique ways! Full time college commuter, but very flexible schedule so my availability varies from day to day! Available for walking, feeding, etc! Reach out for more info :) I have extensive experience with dogs, particularly as a proud owner of two German Shepherds—an 11-year-old and a lively puppy! Additionally, I have a 6-year-old cat and actively assist my sister with her foster care efforts.

“Melissa was amazing with our 2 cats! They warmed up to her so quickly and she snapped some great photos of them too really capturing their personalities. Great communication and gave us such peace of mind while we were away from our girls for the week. Thank you again Melissa!”

About: Hi! I’m Lindsey, a lifelong animal lover and trained dog care professional based in Ramsey, NJ 🐾 I am willing to help all over North Jersey! I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently care for my 14-year-old Wheaten Terrier, Dexter, who I’ve had for his entire life! :) I’ve also worked in a professional dog daycare and provided dog walking and pet sitting for multiple families, and I’m experienced with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities! Whether it’s playtime, a walk, helping with meds, or just keeping your pet company, I bring calm, reliable, loving energy to every visit. I’m trained in safe animal handling and committed to keeping your pet happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I also make sure keep pet parents updated with lots of photos and messages for peace of mind. 😊 Can’t wait to meet your fur baby!! I’m a college student home for the summer! I have a very open and available schedule, and I’m available to help you and your furry friend/friends most any time and any day with anything you need :) I always make sure every pet in my care feels safe, happy, and loved. When caring for dogs in their home, I’m respectful of the space and always leave it even better than I found it!

“Joannie is a kind and nurturing. She was respectful of my shy guys comfort zone and took good care of my little dog. Joannie did drop in visits for my older timid Yorkie and worked hard to try to win him over. Would recommend her and plan to use again in future.”

About: I’ve always had a huge love for animals and have experience caring for many different types of pets, including dogs, rabbits, and birds. I also owned a German Shepherd, so I’m comfortable handling larger, high-energy dogs and understand the importance of patience, structure, and exercise. I previously worked as a vet tech, where I learned how to properly handle animals, recognize signs of stress or discomfort, and provide attentive care. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy during walks and visits. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel at ease while they’re away. I enjoy making pet care part of my daily routine because spending time with animals is something I genuinely love. I currently work during the weekdays, but I’m available most evenings as well as Thursdays and weekends for walks and drop-in visits. I like staying active, so dog walking fits naturally into my schedule, and I always make sure pets get attentive, reliable care and plenty of attention during visits. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. During walks and drop-in visits, I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, energy level, and needs. I make sure they get exercise, fresh water, attention, and a calm environment. With my previous vet tech experience, I’m also attentive to signs of stress or discomfort and always prioritize safety. I treat every pet with patience and care as if they were my own.

About: Full-time aunt to Kobe, a silky terrier 6 year-old sassy, well trained boy, with a strong personality. Part-time aunt to all of my friend's animals, cats/dogs, of all shapes and sizes. Super observant of animal behavior in order to understand animals needs. Highly prioritize communicating with owners about their animals, to learn and adapt to animals/owners needs. I enjoy active days, especially with a cool dog to run around or play ball with. I'm also just as good at lounging around as your cat is, if it needs someone to fluff around with, I'm that person too. I can hold down my own, when it comes to extra large sized animals or even the fiercest of them all- the tiny animals. Besides creating a fun environment for your animals, I'm also creating a positive active environment for myself. Nothing makes me happier than cool animals, they are great company. I am a fan of walks as it is, so to have an animal join me in my outdoor adventures sounds like the perfect day to me. I am currently in a space where I am working from home, so it's been nice to have the company from all the animals as well as a reason to get up from my desk during the daily walks. I am quite clean when it comes to animals, so wiping of the paws after entering from the outdoors is on a list of to-do's for me. They do after all, sleep in our beds and walk on our couches. I also do not like ingredients like wheat and filler, so I always make sure to have any/all treats or foods with ingredients that will elongate the life rather than cut it short. I do not actually have the space to board at this time, but I am more than accommodating to keeping animals in their home space to make sure they are in their most comfortable mental state, while their parent/parents are away.

About: I have watched my neighbors dog (Havenese) for 1 month over the summer for the past 4 years. I have also watched my cousins dog (lab mix) for a few weeks. I sometimes walk dogs around my neighborhood. I currently work part time (every Wednesday + random as needed). The rest of my schedule is mostly free. I’m an out of state college student so I will only be here for the summer. I use the toys that the dog has to play what the dog wants to, example: tug of war or fetch. I make sure the water bowl is always filled. If it is the dogs dinner time, I will make sure to feed them.

About: Very eager to help! I’ve owned 2 dogs for 10+ years. Very experienced and trustworthy. I can get along with any dog! Please reach out! I currently work remotely so my schedule is flexible. I would be available daily/weekly as requested. I look forward to helping as much as I can! I would care for a clients pets just as if they were my own. I’d treat them with respect and make sure they get their walks in!

“Aletris was amazing! They were incredibly attentive and sweet with our kitty and went above and beyond our expectations. Aletris took the job very seriously and made sure nothing would get in their way of taking care of our fur baby, (even if that means resorting to biking to our house when their family needed their car)! We can’t express how happy we are to have found Aletris and I know our kitty felt the same way! Will definitely be hiring them again for future pet sitting needs!”

About: Hi! I'm Delicia, a passionate Animal Science student at Rutgers with hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals—including dogs, cats, birds, and other small mammals. I genuinely love every pet I meet and take pride in learning their unique personalities and needs. I personally have grown up with and trained pets since I was in highschool. You can count on me to be reliable, attentive, and gentle. Whether it's daily care, walks, or extra cuddles, I’m here to make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. If you're interested in discussing your pet care needs further or would like to schedule a meet-and-greet, feel free to send me a message. I'd love to chat with you and provide the peace of mind you need knowing your pets are in good hands. I'm currently a full - time student at Rutgers. My classes are in the middle of the day typically ending at 3:20. I have free time after so whenever fits your needs. I will also have flexibility during the weekend. I'm currently at an apartment so I have room for a dog or cat. They're apartments that Rutgers allow service dogs to live. They have a dog park built and it's friendly for dogs. I have a go - to park nearby in a very safe community .

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.

“Irem does a great job. This is the second time she has taken care of my cats. It’s nice to know that they are in good hands while I’m away and she always leaves things tidy.”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I bring to every dog I care for. I have an older dog of my own, so I understand the importance of attention, comfort, and consistency, especially for pups who need a little extra care. I treat every dog as if they were my own, with plenty of love, walks, and care tailored to their needs. I work a full time job so I am available between 6-10 pm on weekdays and anytime on the weekends. I was a student athlete in college and know how to responsibly balance my schedule. I have a pet friendly space where your dog can relax, walk around, and eat or drink. Easy accessibility for potty breaks and fresh air.

About: As a Veterinary Technician, I’m around furry friends daily. I have been in the field for over 13 years and love every bit of it. In the past I have done numerous pet sitting jobs for cats, dogs, birds, and farm animals. I am experienced in administering medication if need be. Along with taking care of pets of all life stages. Needless to say my life is surrounded with four legged family members and I wouldn’t have it any other way. You can take my word for it that your pets are in GREAT hands. I do currently work fully time at an Animal Hospital during the week. So I would be available in the mornings before I have to be at work, but Saturday-Monday are where I’m most available given those are my days off I treat every pet as if they were my own! I will send you photos so even though your pet isn’t with you, seeing them will make the time apart a little bit easier knowing they are still happy as can be!
