About: Hello, My name is Natalie I’m 29, no kids but I am married! I have 3 fur babies myself a Rhodesian ridgeback 100lbs, a male pitbull 45lbs and a baby girl pitbull about 40lbs. All of my dogs are reactive for one reason or another so I have EXTENSIVE experience handling a dog that might not be the best around other dogs. I will ensure that every action that I take I would do confidently with my own dogs. Aside from dogs I have owned cats for years and also own two birds! I’m located in Hopatcong and am always available! Please contact me with any and all questions I know picking a dog sitter etc is hard! I work part time currently and am mostly available at all times! I have owned and worked with many dogs through out my life so I know nothing can be perfectly timed! I own 3 dogs so when it comes to caring for them I’m paranoid! I ensure that nothing is on the floor to be chewed. The dogs go out when needed at minimum 4 times a day. Lots of play in between outside and walks! I will ensure that any dog I care for will be treated as family as I would want for my dogs!

Jaylene came the day after our meet and greet to walk our dog Remi! She was easy to communicate with to make plans and schedule. Jaylene took her time to win over Remi, who can be a little shy and skeptical upon meeting someone new. They went for a walk and Jaylene updated me with everything Remi did. Remi and I look forward to our next booking with Jaylene!

Julie did a great job. She and my dog connected right away and I felt safe and secure with having him be in her care. She was responsive, professional and follow-through on all that we agreed on. I highly recommend her and will be calling upon her in the future as the need presents itself.

About: I've cared for all sorts of animals my entire life - cats, dogs, rats, turtles...As a child I would pet sit for multiple neighbors. As an adult, I've been pet sitting for friends and family for many years now. I also have experience with medical special needs, and dog training at animal shelters. I am available for drop ins and walks daily throughout the week. I'd love to spend as much time as possible with animals of all shapes and sizes! I can offer bathroom breaks for housebroken dogs, and play time for both dogs and cats. I'd love to play fetch (or keep away!) with a puppy. I also know that, despite all the best toys in the world, sometimes the cat would just rather play with a hair tie! Of course, they'll always get personalized attention and lots of pets!

About: I’ve taken care of my friends’ dogs since I was a teenager. I’m the designated dog sitter when my brother Andrew goes on trips. He has three dogs of different sizes, ages and needs. I have always been able to calm his puppies down as I am a calm and patient person. I’m a “gentle parent” for dogs. I use a positive reinforcement style when it comes to bad behaviors. I do work full time, but remotely on Fridays and on-site is only 25 minutes away from home. The most time Monday-Thursday that I would be out of the house is about 8 hours I only have a bearded dragon in a glass tank at home currently so no other furry pets that could possibly not get along with yours. I have a large fully-fenced in backyard and live in a large neighborhood with sidewalks for our daily strolls.

About: My family and I are animal lovers! We have one dog of our own who we love and care for and she LOVES to play with other doggie friends! I have dog sat for about 15+ years for personal friends and family as well as many dogs here on Rover. All of our children love dogs and we create a loving and caring family environment. We have a large backyard in a family oriented town. Our yard is not fenced, but there is plenty of room for dogs we watch to run around and play. My children take part in caring for the dogs we sit and like to give them lots of extra hugs and love. We also enjoy going on lots of walks! We can’t wait to give your dog a warm, friendly home away from home! I am work from home, so I am available to be present for your dog. He/she will have someone around almost at all times. If we have to run out for anything, if your dog does not chew and is trained, he/she can have run of our home. We have one very friendly dog to keep yours company. I have plenty of room in the house for a crate if necessary. If medications are necessary, I am able to administer that. Our yard is not fenced, however we have a long lead where he/she can have plenty of room to run around. Our family will be present at all times when your dog is outside.

About: Hello, my name is Alex. Pets have always been a big part of my life since a very young age. I currently have a cat of my own but have several family members who have dogs. At age 18 I started watching families and friends dogs of all breads while they were away or when needed! If they were away for a long day trip, I would walk and feed the dog as needed. If they were away longer, I would either bring the dog to my house during their trip or stay over their house with the dog to keep them at home and more confortable! Animals, to me are the greatest form of love and companionship. I would love to meet and care for your best friend! I currently work from home full time and can accomodate my schedule based when you will need my services! I can travel to and from your house to care for your pet(s) as one of my own. I live in a duplex house with a large backyard that is not fenced in. Neighbors on both sides have dogs as well. Shade is plentiful in the area throughout the day.

About: Dogs mean a lot to me. Growing up with German Sheppards, I really needed to be disciplined with them. Dogs need high attention. I'm very active with them, constantly playing and walking them. Giving them the best exercise possible. I've worked with senior dogs. I did as much as they can handle. Walks at their own pace, play with them when necessary. Gave them their medications on time, let them rest as needed. Every dog is different. I've worked with younger dogs, very energetic. Take them to parks to play, or long walks. I helped trained them. Waiting to start a job in federal law enforcement. Just got out of the military in August. Currently unemployed, I will be doing this full time. I'm pretty flexible. Free weekdays and weekends. No better way to work then spending it with dogs everyday. Make sure they have water always, dog dishes are cleaned. No objects around that they can choke on. Playing and walking with them consistently everyday.
