House Sitting in Gillette

“Hadija is an outstanding dog and house sitter! We are so grateful for her thoughtful and kind care she gave to our dog, Edna. We had to book a dog sitter on short notice over a holiday weekend and we couldn’t have been luckier that Hadija was able to watch Edna last minute! She sent us regular video updates and made sure Edna kept to her usual routine. It was a relief to be able to travel and know that our dog was so well cared for. We highly recommend Hadija for dog/house sitting. She was also a very courteous house guest.”

About: I'm a pet-loving mother of four with three children in college—and enjoying the wonderful pets I have met through this site. I have lived in Scotch Plains for almost 15 years. I watch several dogs regularly on a private basis and am excited to be part of the Rover community. I grew up with a beloved menagerie that included three cats, two beloved dachshunds and a poodle and have enjoyed watching a variety of dogs, including a bulldog, a French bulldog, a Bernese, a labradoodle, and, of course, mixed breeds. I love walking and daily yoga and look forward to helping your pets get the fresh air, activity and affection they need when you are working or otherwise busy. I am a freelance writer with a flexible schedule and have time for walks and visits before or after work and at lunchtime. Having raised a family, I know how important it is to have a pet sitter who is mature and reliable and understands how deeply you love your pets--and am honored to assist you in keeping them happy and healthy. While I would love to help every pet, I am petite, so my ideal sized pets are under 50 pounds. I am a freelance writer with a flexible schedule and my own car. I rise early every day, and I am often available on weekends. I am often available at lunch time to clients who need their dogs walked mid day. I am a mature, reliable and organized mother of four and will treat your beloved and adorable pet like a member of my own family.

“We were in desperate need of someone we could trust to watch our anxious rescue pup, Piper, during our wedding weekend. Lana was extremely patient with both Piper, and my husband and I, even agreeing to meet us several times before the stay to get us all comfortable. She sent numerous pictures and updates, which calmed our nerves so we could fully enjoy our wedding. Thank you Lana for taking great care of Piper, we will definitely be contacting her again if we ever need someone to dog sit Piper in the future.”

About: I have always had small dogs growing up and got my own dog 5 years ago. I have watched my neighbors and family members dogs and cats of all sizes. I care for these animals like I would want my dog to be cared for. I’m very compassionate and detail oriented. I will do whatever the owner instructs and provide updates with pictures. I have 2 part time jobs currently so I have random time gaps throughout the day to fill. I will be starting graduate school in September and will also still have some random time gaps throughout the day and I’m looking to fill them with some animal love. I pay close attention to details left by owners about their pets care plan. I treat every animal with love and compassion like they are my own pet. I care for pets like I with the same high standards I have for anyone who cares my own pet. I provide updates and pictures while I’m caring for pets so the owners know their animal is safe and in good hands.

About: I have experience both cat sitting and dog sitting for owners who have been out of town for extended periods of time. I have also cared for my family dog and own personal cat! I am currently working full time, so I am available for morning and/or evening care, overnight stays as well as weekend care! I currently cannot offer care in my own home because of my own pet. I offer in-home stays and visits so your pet can be comfortable in their own environment! I am knowledgeable about animals and attentive to their needs. I have experience caring for animals with unique needs, such as my family dog, who has high anxiety that influences her behavior. I love to play with pets and will always make sure they receive adequate attention based on their needs.
