Alexa is very reliable and has been very patient with our nervous larger dog. He’s always happier after he goes for a walk with her. We would definitely recommend Alexa for any of your pet care needs.

About: Hello! My name is Corinne and caring for animals has always been a passion of mine. Whether it’s a playful puppy or senior dog, I treat every pet like they’re apart of my family. I have a combination of reliability, communication, and personalized care. You will never have to guess how your pet is doing as I provide you with updates and photos! You will always feel at ease as I give each animal the patience and love they deserve! From long walks to affection, I will always make sure your pets get the care and attention that they deserve. Every pet deserves trustworthy care and I cannot wait to care for your furry friend. I am currently in school for MRI. As of right now, I can do weekends and even weekdays depending on your schedule and routine! Starting January, my schedule will become a lot more flexible as I will have more pet sitting hours available throughout my school year. I am more than happy to work with your schedule and make any necessary adjustments to care for your pet and help make your life easier. When caring for pets in your home, I focus on keeping your pet comfortable and safe while respecting your household routines. I will follow all instructions as every pet is unique! I maintain consistency and comfort that your pets know best so that they feel secure. Safety is always a first. Doors and gates are always locked and secured while all walks are handled safely and carefully. I treat your home with the same respect I give my own by cleaning up after your pet and keeping your home neat. Communication is key for me as I will always keep you updated and contact you when needed. My goal is to give your pet loving, reliable care while giving you a peace of mind while you’re away from home.

About: I’ve had dogs in my home for as long as I can remember, so caring for them is second nature to me. I also spent a few months living with my boyfriend and his cat, which gave me hands-on experience with cat routines and their unique personalities. Whether it’s a dog who loves walks or a cat who prefers quiet company, I’m patient, attentive, and focused on making sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I currently work part time (around 30 hours a week) but I have a lot of flexibility. I can usually shift my schedule around to make sure your pet(s) get the care they need! Keeping your pet safe and happy is my top priority! Whether it’s a walk, stopping in, or a longer stay, I will be sure to follow your instructions closely, make sure doors and gates are secure, and stick to your pets’ usual routine. I promise to treat your home with care and make sure everything is clean and comfortable, so your pet(s) can relax, play, and enjoy their day while you’re away!

About: I currently have a 7 year old mini golden doodle who is my best friend and always entertaining. I’ve learned to walk, feed, play, and wash dogs throughout my life and love all animals! I’m currently home for the summer for break. I’m free all day so spending time with dogs and spending time outside with them seems like the perfect way to stay active! I’m not looking to bring any dogs into my home, but if I did my golden doodle is very friendly with other dogs and loves to play!

About: I have over 20 years of experience providing occasional care for both dogs and cats. During this time, I have handled a variety of breeds and personalities, ensuring pets receive reliable attention, feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. I’m comfortable administering basic care routines and pride myself on being dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I currently work a split schedule job during the week so I am available for several hours during the daytime, plus evenings and weekends to care for you pets. I care for pets as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I follow each pet’s routine closely, provide plenty of playtime and companionship, and keep a close eye on their health and happiness. I also keep the home secure and share updates so families have peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands.

Melissa was great with my dog, Blaze! She not only provided Blaze with much needed exercise on her daily walks, but she almost always stuck around to give a little tender love and care to our pooch. She also brought in our mail, which was an unexpected perk. I highly recommend Melissa. She is a reliable and loving caretaker of dogs.

About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was a kid and have many of my own over the years. I just moved to Florida from the Northeast and am still getting settled but miss the companionship of a dog. Neighbors, family’s and friends have relied on me to care for, walk, feed and bathe their pets. I am reliable, patient and caring. I have a flexible, work schedule and I love dogs and would love to help others care for their pets. I am around early mornings, nights, or weekends in addition to midday. I am very attentive and will watch your pet as if it’s my own. I will follow whatever direction you give me to ensure your pet’s safety.

Midland Park, NJ, 07432

About: I have been around dogs my entire life. My morkie, Mason, has been my best friend for 11 years, and his safety, happiness, and health are always my top priorities. These same values carry over to every dog I care for. I currently work as a veterinary assistant and have previous experience in pet retail, which has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, health, and the importance of attentive care. Whether it’s recognizing when a dog feels anxious, following a medication schedule, or just giving them some extra love, I treat every pet like family. Dogs mean the world to their families, and I want every client to feel at ease knowing their furry friend is in capable, caring hands. Their loyalty and kindness are unmatched, and I’ll always treat them with the same respect and affection they give us. Thank you for reading my profile — I’d be honored to care for your best friend. Have a wonderful day! I’m free on Sundays, Mondays, and Wednesdays for walks and drop-ins. Since those are my days off, I can focus fully on keeping your pet happy and comfortable. At home, I make sure my dog Mason gets regular walks, mental stimulation, playtime, and a consistent feeding schedule. I also monitor his health and comfort daily. At a client’s home, I follow any instructions carefully, providing walks, playtime, feeding, and attention exactly as requested. I aim to keep the environment familiar and stress-free for each pet, so they feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away.

Ramsey, NJ, 07446

About: Growing up, our house was basically a mini zoo—with a dog, two cats, some hamsters, and even a hermit crab. Later on, I had a sweet rescue pup of my own who brought so much love and laughter into my life until she passed from old age almost a year ago. For someone who has always had pets and is an animal lover, Rover has been the perfect way to fill that pet-shaped space in my heart. Although I think my days of owning a pet is over, I find joy in treating yours as my own, giving them all the love & joy that they give me. I enjoy spending time outdoors and getting some fresh air, here in Ramsey we have beautiful walking paths - so I would love to have your pup tag along! However, because I have a full time job, I'm currently not accepting weekly clients - as much as I would love to! My goal is always to make them feel safe, happy, and loved—just like they would with your family. I appreciate when owners provide detailed instructions. I follow their routine as closely as possible—whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, or quiet time—so they feel right at home

About: I go beyond basic pet sitting — I provide personalized, compassionate care tailored to your pet’s unique needs. With hands-on experience in puppy training, senior pet care, and medication administration, I’m equipped to handle pets at every stage of life. Even while working full time, pet care is a top priority in my daily routine. My evenings and weekends are fully open for longer visits, walks, or overnight stays. I’m dependable, organized, and always make sure your pets get the attention and care they deserve. I care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, where they feel safest and most relaxed. I stick closely to their routine — feeding, walks, playtime, meds, and snuggles — just the way you do. I also keep your home tidy and secure, treating it with the same respect and care I give your pets.

About: I have professional experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes, ages and temperaments. Im confident me and your dog will be good friends. Your dogs happiness is only secondary to their safety. As a volunteer firefighter and part time student I have a lot of time during the day to hang with your pets. Monday Tuesday and Thursday nights and the occasional random weekends I do have class but can sometimes work around it so feel free to ask. I am very respectful of clients homes and do the best to leave them how they were. I do my best to clean up any messes and make your pets comfortable.
