Dog Sitting Glen Ridge

About: As a lifelong animal lover and proud dog mom to my Shiba Inu, Roxy, I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can completely trust. I treat every dog in my care like they’re part of my own family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s individual personality and routine. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply relaxing with someone nearby, I’m happy to tailor my care to their needs. I understand the importance of sticking to feeding schedules, administering basic medications if needed, and keeping you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you have peace of mind. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly, and your furry family member will receive lots of affection, supervision, and personalized care. I know every pet is unique, and my goal is to make them feel as comfortable and happy as possible while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I currently work from home on Mondays and Fridays, which allows me to provide extra attention, companionship, and frequent potty breaks throughout the day. On the other weekdays, I work a traditional schedule, but I make it a priority to ensure every pet in my care receives plenty of love, exercise, and personalized attention before and after work. Whether your furry family member needs a cozy place to relax, playtime, or lots of cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Our home features a fully fenced yard, providing a safe and secure space for pets to run, play, and explore freely\. I make sure every dog gets plenty of supervised outdoor time for exercise and fun, while also ensuring their safety at all times\. Whether your pet loves to play fetch, lounge in the sun, or simply stretch their legs, they’ll have a comfortable and protected environment to enjoy\.

About: Through my family I have taken care of three different types of dogs big and small since I was 8 years old and have gained a lot of experience. I’m currently a college student who is looking for work on the side. I have wide availability and I am usually available any day of the week. If I am ever hired to come to a clients home—I will ensure that act as respectful and professional as possible and focus my care and attention on only my canine clients.

“Stefanie was absolutely AMAZING! From the moment she started, we felt completely at ease. She sent frequent updates and adorable photos throughout her stay, which meant the world to us. She truly saved us in a last-minute situation and was beyond accommodating and flexible. It was so clear our pups were happy, comfortable, and in the excellent hands. We highly recommend Stefanie to anyone looking for exceptional care! 🐾💛”

“My cat Huckleberry LOVES Jenette. It may sound like a small thing but if you don’t provide compelling playtime, he won’t give you the time of day. Jenette really puts in the work with him and he has a great time with her. Can’t say enough good things. Jenette is the BEST!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and caring for them has always been something I truly love. I’ve had fish, hamsters, cats, and have spent many years around dogs of all ages and personalities. Over the years, I’ve developed a strong understanding of both dog and cat behavior, learning how to recognize their body language, personalities, and individual needs. Every pet is different, and I believe they deserve care that’s tailored to who they are. One of the biggest reasons I wanted to become a pet sitter is because I know pets aren’t “just animals”—they’re family. Growing up, I had a cat named Bugsy who was with us until he reached old age. Caring for him through every stage of his life taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and making sure both his physical and emotional needs were met. Those experiences shaped the way I care for every animal today. Now I have my own cat, Gumbo, who is absolutely my baby. I know how difficult it can be to leave your pet behind, whether you’re working long hours or traveling. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and understood while you’re away. Whether that’s an energetic walk, playtime to burn off extra energy, enrichment activities, cuddles on the couch, or simply respecting a shy pet’s boundaries, I’ll care for them the way I would want someone to care for my own. I treat every pet as if they were part of my own family, and I look forward to giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, dependable hands. I work full-time in a hybrid role, which gives me a consistent schedule while still allowing flexibility to care for pets. I’m available every morning and evening for feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship, and on many work-from-home days I can also provide midday visits and attention. I understand that pets thrive on routine, so I do my best to maintain their normal schedule and ensure they receive the care, exercise, and affection they need throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and secure in their familiar environment. Before each booking, I like to learn about each pet’s routine, personality, medical needs, favorite activities, and any behavioral quirks so I can provide care that’s tailored specifically to them. I carefully follow all owner instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and house rules, and I always respect my clients’ homes as if they were my own. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy, well cared for, and in good hands while they’re away.

“Cassie did a wonderful job caring for my two Persian cats for the week I was out of the country. I enjoyed meeting her initially because I could see she was conscientious and friendly. My cats loved her visits since she played with them and let my cat sit on her lap (which is her favorite thing to do). I appreciated that she took the time to check on the upstairs water bowl and keep the litter box clean. Everything was in order when I returned and I was grateful that Cassie brought in a package that was delivered. Cassie is an excellent sitter that you can trust with your pets.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 18 years old, and over the years, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. I also have professional experience in pet grooming, having worked as both a bather and a dog groomer. This gives me an edge in handling pets gently and confidently, especially during bath time or when dealing with nervous or high-energy pets. Whether it’s daily care, grooming needs, or providing extra attention to puppies or senior pets, I bring patience, skill, and genuine love for animals to every job. I am currently working in a Pet Grooming as a dog groomer during the week. My availability is only on weekends but I am open for a conversation. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I create a calm, clean, and secure environment where pets feel safe and loved. I follow any instructions provided closely—whether it’s feeding routines, medication, or special preferences—and I always take the time to build trust with each animal at their own pace

“Brad was very responsive to a last minute request to let my dogs out when I couldn’t get back home in time to feed them. He fed them and let them out and hung out with them for awhile.”

About: For the past eight years, I’ve provided attentive dog walking and cat care for pets with a wide range of needs, personalities, and medical conditions. I’m committed to giving every pet patient, loving, and dependable care while making their safety, comfort, and happiness my highest priorities. After years in retail and banking, I chose to follow my passion for pet care and build a career centered on trust, compassion, and reliability. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I strive to give pet parents peace of mind through clear communication and consistent, thoughtful service. I'm available for dog walking and drop-in visits for dogs or cats, Monday through Friday between 8 am & 4 pm. I’m not usually available on weekends, however, if you’re in a bind and need a walk or a visit on a Saturday or a Sunday, and I have no plans that weekend, I most likely will be able to do it as long as it’s no later than 12 pm. For your dog's safety, dogs are prolific sniffers, inevitably putting things in their mouths that they shouldn't. I pay close attention to and keep a watchful eye on the ground to make sure your dog doesn't put anything in its mouth that can be harmful. In the unlikely event your dog or cat needs medical attention, I’m certified in cat and dog first aid by the American Red Cross.

About: I understand how important it is to have someone reliable and patient looking after your pets, and I always try to give them lots of attention, affection, and exercise based on their individual needs. I currently offer drop-in visits, evening house sitting, and walks. I know every pet has their own personality, so I always do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also have a senior dog of my own who has a special diet and is partially blind, so I understand the extra patience and attention some pets may need. During walks, I keep her close to me, help guide her safely up and down stairs, and carry her when needed. I also administer her eye drops daily and make sure she stays comfortable and relaxed. Caring for her has taught me how important gentle, attentive care is, especially for senior pets or pets with special needs. I have a fairly flexible schedule! I’m currently available weekday afternoons and evenings, as well as full availability on weekends for Over night House sitting, drop in visits for both cats and dogs, and dog walking! Visits include feedings, fresh water, potty breaks, walks and playtime! I’m happy to help keep up with your pet’s normal routine so they feel safe and relaxed in their own home. For walks, I focus on making sure your dog has a safe and fun outing.

About: Having grown up on a farm and surrounded by various animals, my pet care experience is extensive and deeply ingrained. From nurturing newborn alpacas to handling our pets everyday needs, I have a wealth of knowledge in tending to their well-being. Additionally, having cherished pets of my own over the years has further honed my understanding of their unique requirements and behaviors. My background instills confidence in providing compassionate and skilled care for any furry or feathered companion that comes my way. As a software engineer with a wonderfully flexible schedule, pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily and weekly routine. My love for animals makes them an essential part of my life, and I prioritize their well-being with the same dedication I give to coding. Whether it's feeding my pets, taking them for refreshing walks, or engaging in playtime, I ensure they receive the attention and care they deserve. It's a win-win situation that keeps me both productive and connected to nature. Living on the second floor of a quiet community with a courtyard just outside my door and nearby woods, I provide attentive pet care both at home and for clients. In my home, I ensure pets have a comfortable and secure space to relax, whether it's a cozy pet bed or their own crate if preferred. Regular walks and adventures in the nearby woods offer them ample exercise and stimulation. With plenty of playtime, love, and a variety of pet toys on hand, I make sure they feel right at home and well-cared for throughout their stay.
