“Excellent ! Wade followed all the instructions carefully and was very reliable and professional. Great communication throughout, and I really appreciated the updates. Would definitely book again and highly recommend!”


About: I have worked at the pet shop in town for almost 4 years. I have learned a lot about nutrition and am here to help with that as well. I have always loved dogs & animals. I have 3 dogs now and use to have cats growing up. I have always helped family/ friends with their pets. My cousins would call me “ the dog whisperer” I am very patient and understanding- a dog sometimes is anxious just like us humans. I think taking time out of the day and using interactive toys is so important for stimulation and keeping them busy. I usually am off on sunday & wednesday. I typically work in the morning until 3pm. Can do walks/feed them/ check in’s on the dogs after work and most likely before work. I have lots of grass outside & a gate inside.I would play with them outside, make sure they have a harness and a longer line ( so they are safe)& take them for walks. I can brush the dogs as well. I do prefer to stop at the clients house. I have 2 dogs at my house - it can be a lot. In the clients house I would first make sure the dog goes outside to the bathroom upon arrival. I would take them for a walk, play with the dogs outside( depending on the gate situation) Make sure they have lots of water, food & i can brush them.

“Mark is amazing with Violet! As we experience colder temps he ensures her comfort and warmth and even bundled her up on a day we couldn't find her sweater. Highly recommended!”


“Kristine is a lovely young lady. She's compassionate, spent time with my dog, and took her for a long walk. I received pictures. Everything went very well. I totally recommend her.”


About: I was on a farm most of my life, I’ve cared for many types of animals. I love animals and if you need someone to stop by and care for yours I would like to be considered to help out I work from home and my job is very flexible I can stop by to visit your pet and feed and or walk them. Like to meet them I have a little dog and a cat. I can only walk dogs on a leash at my home. I am more than willing to come take your pets out at your home and water and feed them.

About: Attentive, responsible & fun pet caretaker who will treat your dog or cat like it was my own. With first hand experience taking care of my pets over the years, I understand how important it is for animals to feel safe, loved. & well-cared for. Whether it’s walking, playtime, administering medication, or just providing companionship, I’m here to meet your pets needs and help them to thrive. I look forward to providing your pets the full attention they deserve. Whether it’s a dog who enjoys long walks and plenty of treats, or a cat who needs calm and attentive care, I will provide this and more. With experience caring for my own dogs and cats, I understand how to meet your pets unique needs so they feel safe happy, well-loved while you are away. I have two levels and can separate your pets or have them join my friendly rescue dog Gary! Cats can join my cats or be separated. I can take your dog on plenty of walks and if you would like to the local dog park to play. Cats get special TLC!

About: I have sat dogs of all sizes, cats, bunnies and ferrets. I can also feed anyone’s fish if needed. Animals love is unconditional. And they deserve that love back. Which I always give to them. My schedule is open. I just left my job to experience new journeys in life. This is one of the journeys I want to take because of my love for animals. I am a graduate from Rutgers University of New Brunswick. I care for pets with love. I am very safe with animals. I follow directions thoroughly. I am a clean and organized person as well. If an animal needs to be cleaned up after or crated before I leave then that will be done. Any special requests I accept. Some clients have special ways to make their animal food which I can accommodate to. I am licensed in security so the animals and house will always be in good hands.

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them comes as naturally to me as breathing. I’ve grown up with dogs since I was a kid and currently have two of my own—both well-behaved and trained beyond just basic obedience, including fun tricks to keep them engaged. My full-time job keeps me surrounded by dogs who come in and out of the office. I also have a deep understanding of senior dog care, puppy care and canine nutrition, ensuring every pup in my care gets the best possible attention. When I’m not working, you’ll likely find me hiking with my dogs or planning our next dog-friendly adventure. I don’t have human kids, but my dogs are my world, and I’ll treat yours like family too! I currently have a full time job that I work 4 days a week so I’m available 3 days a week - Tuesday, Friday and Saturday. I will abide by the owners preference on letting their dog out as I understand everyone has their own way of handling this. If their yard is fenced and a simple open the door and go - that’s a plus but more than happy to put the leash on and go around!

About: Aside from having a minimum of 2 dogs in my house my whole life, I became a dog foster for a shelter near my school for 3 years. With that came valued experience with various breeds and very different personality types. I am patient with nervous dogs and try to make them the most comfortable I can and can also meet the energy level of very hyper and playful pups. From fostering I found my sweet Maisy, who I was lucky enough to love for 7 years and gave me more joy than I could have imagined. I am comfortable with multiple dogs at once as well, as I mentioned before I am used to always having at least two in the family but the more the merrier! My availability can fluctuate week to week but I will always try my best to work with whatever availability needed by you. I would love the opportunity to help you out with your four legged family members! I am currently pursuing a Masters degree and do other remote work so my schedule/availability is always changing however, still usually very flexible and am willing to work around your needs. I try to care for your animals in the same way and with as much love as you do! Their happiness and safety are my top priority.

About: Growing up with dogs has given me a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. After our beloved family dog passed away, I channeled my love for dogs into caring for others in my neighborhood, providing both walking and boarding services. I recently left the day care industry to focus on my health. Therefore, I'm available all days and evenings for afternoon walks or to provide boarding when you're on vacations. In my home, I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment that is tailored to you and your pet's needs and routine. I enjoy play time and taking dogs for walks around the neighborhood.

About: I love working with pets because they all have such different personalities. What makes working with pets more fun is establishing trust with them so that I can provide the best care for them. I have loved animals since I was a little girl and am furthering my career by studying Zoology at SUNY Oswego. I am currently a student looking for part-time work through the summer. I am looking for a job where i can provide a safe and trustworthy environment with both pets and their owners. I have cared for my own dog whose name is Zoey. I bathe her, brush her, take her outside, play with her, train her, and show her unconditional love. I also have pet sit for family and friends whenever they needed in the past few years.

About: Hi. I am a retired public school teacher. Tutoring fishing and traveling takes up a large chunk of my time now but I still have time to hang with the hounds. I absolutely love dogs and have been a multiple dog owner since I was a kid (I'm now in my 50's). I am also the “go to dog watcher/walker” when family and friends are away and hopefully can be for your dog at some time as well. Once I retire I plan on having even greater flexibility and more scheduling for my dog friends and their owners. Currently I have the summer off and have availability Mon through Sunday, mornings, afternoons and evenngs.Once the school year begins again at the end of August I will still be available late afternoons and evenings with boarding options Fri and Sat nights only. I am available for walking, watching and for those interested, boarding at our home. We presently have two dogs, both rescues ( a chihuahua and a whippet hybrid) and a fully fenced in backyard (70’ x 100’) that is very dog friendly and dog secure for those who need an overnight or a doggy day care option. Your dogs will be treated like our own. With love and respect. Our dogs have always been a part of our family and that level of love and care will be extended to any dog I am trusted to care for.

About: As a professional dog groomer with over 25 years of experience, my love for dogs runs deep. My new grooming salon, Punky’s Pawlor, opened in June 2024 in Annandale, NJ! I have a profound understanding of dog’s behavior and personalities, which allows me to provide personalized care to every dog that comes my way. In addition to dogs, I have cared for a variety of other animals including horses, cats, birds, and other small pets for over 40 years. I take great pride in my work as a dog groomer, and have become an expert in making dogs look and feel their best. I understand that each dog is unique, and requires different techniques and approaches to achieve the desired result. With my knowledge of dog behavior, body language and personalities, I am able to tailor my approach to ensure that every dog is comfortable and happy. I'm also an experienced photographer and artist so I'll love being sure that you get plenty of adorable shots of your perfect pooch. Beyond grooming, I am well-versed in all aspects of animal care, and take great concern to provide exceptional care to every animal under my responsibility. My love for animals is evident in everything I do, and I am committed to ensuring that every animal in my care is kept healthy, happy, and safe. It seems my care of animals doesn't ever stop. I currently have 5 of my own rescues but I find time to be sure yours get the attention they need too! I'm available most every day and most weekends as long as I'm not booked with another client! As a professional pet care provider, I understand the importance of providing personalized care to every furry family member. When caring for a fur-child in its owner's home, I take the time to understand their routines, habits, and preferences to ensure that they feel comfortable and happy in their familiar surroundings. I prioritize the fur-kid’s safety and well-being, making sure that their food, water, and exercise needs are met on a regular schedule. I also provide plenty of attention and playtime to keep them mentally and physically stimulated. In addition to basic care, I am also experienced in administering medications, monitoring health concerns, and addressing any issues that may arise during my time with your beloved pet. I treat every fur-child in my care with the same level of love and attention that I would give to my own, and strive to make their time without their owners as stress-free and enjoyable as possible.
