“Nicole was wonderful watching my cat when I was away. She always checked in with me quickly and gave me thorough updates about how my cat was doing-if she was eating, and sent pictures everyday. I will definitely be booking her again, he did a great job and my cat loved spending time with her.”
“Christina and her husband Nick are so wonderful! They have been infinity patient with our two cats and so kind and caring. They are also quick to communicate with any questions or when anything comes up. I would fully recommend them to anyone.”
“My boys and I just had our second booking with Andrew and it just keeps getting better!!! He is such an attentive, loving and generous sitter for my boys. I always know my boys are in the best of hands with Andrew!”
“Jinghong was absolutely amazing and took great care of my kitty! I came back to a very clean apartment and a very happy cat. I couldn’t be happier with her service!”
About: Hi, I’m your dedicated dog walker serving Passaic, Clifton, Garfield, Lodi, Nutly and Woodridge! I specialize in energizing morning walks and calming evening strolls—perfect for a balanced day. Whether your dog needs a brisk exercise session or a gentle, sniff-filled adventure, I tailor every walk to their needs. I offer one-on-one care or small-group walks, adjusting for weather, so your pup is always comfortable—shorter play if it’s hot, and extra attention if needed. I also have a background in caring for cats, puppies, fast walkers, and senior dogs—including those who need extra exercise for weight management. With one-on-one, thoughtful care, I’ll make every walk the best part of your dog’s day! I offer open and flexible availability to help meet the unique needs of you and your pet. Whether you need early morning walks, midday drop-ins, evening care, weekends, or overnight stays, I do my best to accommodate a variety of schedules. I understand that plans can change, so I strive to be reliable, responsive, and as adaptable as possible. My goal is to make booking care simple and stress-free, while ensuring your pet receives consistent, dependable attention whenever you need support. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities. I strive to create a calm, loving, and reliable environment where every furry friend feels secure and cared for like part of the family. Whether I’m out on a walk, stopping by for a drop-in visit, hosting doggy day care, or providing overnight boarding, I focus on clear communication, consistent routines, and close supervision. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space and take time to understand their unique personality, needs, and energy level. You can feel confident knowing your furry friend will receive attentive care, plenty of affection, and a safe environment every step of the way.
“Enis is awesome. He was amazing checking in on our cat. Stayed and played with her for the time booked and she was purring the entire time in the videos he sent us. Also provided pictures. He was also very patient with some hiccups getting into our home. We would definitely book him again and recommend him to anyone with a pet. You can tell he is a true pet lover too.”
“Grace was very caring and kind. She was an amazing communicator and very responsive. It helped a lot that she came to pick up Monkey and drop him back up. I also appreciated the frequent photos and updates!”
“It's such a comfort and reassurance to know Geoff and Jenny are taking excellent care of our two cats when we're away. They're attentive, patient, and can deal with our senior boys' special food and medication needs without issues. I'm so happy we can count on them!”
“Best pet service!! I’m truly happy I found Diane and was able to have her taken care of my two kitties while I was gone for vacation. She is very patient and caring for my little ones and has given me the comfort of knowing they were in good hands while I was away! Will totally rebook her on for next getaway ☺️”
“Yong was great! He was prompt and followed all the instructions. He spent time to play with my cats and sent me a bunch of photos which we loved to check out while we were away! I’d definitely return for future services :)”
About: I spend most of my time around dogs as my job is a canine caretaker at a dog training facility where I assist in dog handling, dog grooming, dog enrichments, leash handling, & most importantly keeping the dogs & there space clean! I don’t discriminate against any breed I actually have tons of experience with breeds of all sizes & temperaments from small reactive dogs to large reactive dogs, from your cuddliest to your zoomie filled pups. I’ve had tons of dogs my entire life so I can love and care for yours as if they were my own! I have experience in dog handling, leash handling, administering medication, grooming (bath ears teeth nails brush out/ blow out) separating dog scuffles, walking dogs of all sizes, & I’m even a professional belly rubber! I’ll be working with dogs the rest of my life as I pursue my career in dog training and eventually service dog training. Hope I get the pleasure of meeting you & your fur baby! (: I’m currently off from work from December 24th- January 5th and have plenty of time & flexibility as needed. I know lots of pet owners & parents go away during the holidays. Feel free to reach out for a free “meet & greet” Currently, I do not take pets inside my home as my apartment is a 1 pet household per landlord request. Thanks for your understanding. (:
About: My heart goes out to every pet owner, as I have recently lost my childhood companion in June 2025. I am looking forward to taking care of your pets. I am taking a semester off this spring so I will be fully available besides sundays starting January 23rd 2026. I will have this availability as of now until September 2026 Based on the pet I am taking care of, I can best accommodate with the pet if I know their behaviors, triggers, their favorite things to do, etc. I’d treat every pet as my own, making sure they get their daily walks in, set a time for when to eat, make sure they do eat, set some time aside to possibly play depending on the dog, cleanliness is also key.
“Amelia was absolutely wonderful with Luli. From the beginning, she was kind, attentive, and super easy to communicate with. Luli can be a little reserved around new people, but she warmed up to Amelia almost right away. Amelia sent thoughtful updates, photos, and videos. It was clear she wasn’t just doing the basics but was actually spending quality time with Luli, making sure she was comfortable, well-fed, and had her usual little routines. I came home and Luli was relaxed and happy and the apartment was clean. I’Il definitely be reaching out to Amelia again next time I’m away. Highly, highly recommend!!”

Andrew always comes in clutch at the last minute! I’ve used Andrew in the past and Timo already knows that when Andrew comes by it’s play time! As always Andrew is communicative, punctual and focused on full attention for Timo while he is here. Couldn’t recommend Andrew enough!
Yong was an excellent Rover sitter for my cats. He was incredibly diligent, followed every instruction exactly, and made sure their medications were administered properly—which was especially important to me. He was also very communicative throughout the stay, sending plenty of pictures and thoughtful updates that gave me total peace of mind. I came home to happy, well-cared-for cats and would absolutely book with him again.
Kat and her family are wonderful! Took time to understand my Ninja and work at his pace so that he could be comfortable, always updated me and doubled checked with me whenever something wasn’t clear. Will most definitely rebook Kat, I highly recommend her very friendly nice and super understanding!
