1. Hadija B.
“Hadija was great! She put our dog at ease right away and was very thorough and communicative and checked in with us as needed. She also provided updates and photos as requested. She was very low maintenance and easy to work with! We would highly recommend!”
2. Kimberly M.
“Kimberly did a wonderful job at taking care of my dog Callie! She frequently sent updates and my dog Callie loved her! She left my house so clean when she left and I would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
3. Marry T.
“I can't recommend Marry enough! From the very beginning, she was incredibly communicative and attentive. She took the time to meet our dog beforehand, which made a world of difference. Our dog can be reactive and values his space, but Marry was respectful and understanding, ensuring he felt comfortable throughout her stay. She followed all our instructions perfectly and kept us updated with regular pictures, which really put our minds at ease. When we returned, the house was just as we left it. We’ve already booked her for our next trip! If you're looking for someone reliable and caring, Marry is the one to choose!”
4. Olivia H.
“Olivia was wonderful with the pups. She took such good care of them happy healthy, and well cared for, she was absolutely terrific. She stayed over with them and they fell in love with her.. She took great care with my little pups, ear infection, so it was quickly resolved. I would highly recommend Olivia and plan on using her again in the future.”
5. Brittany T.
“Brittany was great to work with! She was communicative, arrived on time and was very responsible and engaging with my dogs. She sent us pictures during her visit and everyone was happy when we came home! We would definitely book pet sitting with Brittany again!”
6. Lina O.
“Lina has done house sitting for my dog Zues twice now. Each of these trips were long weekend outings. Both times I have come home to my house exactley as I left it and my dog disappointed I'm not Lina! Just kidding! But I can tell he has a good time with her and that she gives him plenty of attention while I'm gone. Lina stays in good contact with me while I'm away, and will send pictures if you ask for them. In a nutshell, Lina is trustworthy, caring for your pet, clean and reliable. In my book that's all you need!”
7. kaitlyn b.
“Kaitlyn has been an absolute blessing as a pet sitter and dog walker! She is incredibly reliable, responsible, and truly loves each animal she cares for. My dog, Nala, absolutely adores her and is all over her from the minute she arrives to the second she leaves. She truly goes above and beyond, making sure Nala is well-exercised, fed, and given plenty of attention. I appreciate how attentive she is to her needs, and I love the updates and photos she sends while I'm away. It's clear that she genuinely cares about animals, and I couldn't ask for a better sitter. I would highly recommend Kaitlyn to anyone looking for a dependable, local, and loving pet-sitter!”
8. Gary B.
“Gary did a great job taking care of Raven! He watched her in our apartment for a little over a week and stayed overnight each night too. He gave her eyedrops daily, cleaned up her food bowls, and sent frequent updates on how Raven was doing. He said she would sleep above his head on his pillow too which was really cute lol :) Thank you Gary!”
9. Lauren E.
“My cats are indoor-outdoor cats and can be shy with strangers, so they can be challenging for a new sitter, but Lauren did a fine job of keeping track of them and making sure they were safe and fed. She even managed to snatch a few photos to send to their worried mom! 🙂”
10. Alexis L.
“Alexis is a good friend and I think she would be a great asset to Rover. She is a huge dog lover and is very good with my pet beagle Maxie. I would feel very comfortable with my dog being in Akexis' care. Frank Wojciechowski”
11. Madeline F.
“I really appreciated Madeline’s attention to detail as she cared for our home and our pup! Very professional and has a calming effect on our anxious dog.”
12. chris g.
“Chris is a fantastic pet caregiver. His gentle demeanor and commitment to the well-being of animals make him a great choice for pet owners. Chris has been nothing but reliable and responsible!”
13. Claudia P.
“Claudia was wonderful with all 3 of my pups. She was on time for the 2 days she came over to look after our furbabies. She is reasonably priced (especially for 3 dogs) and I will be requesting her again!”
14. Laura K.
“Laura was wonderful! She's extremely experienced, capable, competent, and knowledgable. My little guy (Julius, a cat) usually has bad separation anxiety, but he did wonderfully with Laura when she stayed in my apartment with him for two weeks. I highly recommend Laura as a sitter for any animal!”
15. Megha P.
“Megha was super professional and sweet! She’s cared for my pets several times and always gives them extra love and attention. She’s reliable and responds quickly to messages I know I can trust her with my babies👍”
16. Natalie A.
“I have met very few people who love animals as much as Natalie does. Natalie is a great caregiver when caring for a friend or relative's pet, which is evident by how wonderful her own two dachshunds are. Natalie showcases tremendous patience and is very attentive to whether her new friend is hungry, tired, etc... If you are looking for a trustworthy animal lover who will give your pet exceptional care and love, I highly recommend Natalie. ”
17. Kalel R.
“Kalel R. would be an excellent dog sitter. He's highly intelligent, quiet, very kind and responsible, and operates with integrity. He's been my dog walker and care taker for 7 years. I have a 10 year old American Bull (white with big black spots). Not only is he beautiful, he has a wonderful personality, affectionate, intelligent, loyal and he loves Kalel. I've had a busy schedule over the years that has required travelling out of state for business and when on vacation. Kalel who I've trusted with a key to my home feeds, walks, plays with and cares for my dog in my absence. He takes him on long walks and jogs intermittently which is needed exercise for his breed. Whenever I mention Kalel's name my dog runs to the window to look for him. He respects my home and has never betrayed my trust.”
18. Elizabeth S.
“Hello! I would highly recommend Elizabeth S. To care for your beloved pets. She is very sweet, attentive and responsible. You will not be disappointed. Diane P”

About: My family has taken care of cats for years, and I have had plenty of practice walking my friend's dogs. I love cuddling up with any pet that I meet. I've had my own cat for over a year now, and I love the crap out of him. Currently baking for Panera Bread in Raritan, NJ part time and trying to make up some income for the time being. Adorable pets help keep me sane and happy. Living in Hillsborough, NJ. I always make sure to pet and cuddle up with pets and give them proper attention when they properly ask for it. I make sure to keep them under control when they act up, but gently.
