Dog Walking Hopatcong Hills

About: I have had cats for 10 years, walked my friends dogs and babysat them, cared for birds and fishes, I love animals of all kinds! I currently work an afternoon to evening job so I have time in the mornings and early afternoons! I also enjoy exercise so its a good way to get walks in for me! I currently do not offer services in my own home, but animals are family members to me. That means dignity should be taken account for, how they are treated, trust and safety is a huge compliment to me, so I find it very important that they feel loved and safe.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I put into every visit. I’m a dedicated sitter with experience watching up to three dogs at one time, making sure each pet feels valued and never overlooked. I take the time to learn their routines, quirks, and comfort levels so they feel safe, calm, and truly at home while you’re away. Whether it’s sticking to feeding schedules, giving plenty of playtime, or creating a relaxing environment, my priority is always your pet’s comfort and well-being. You can trust that your pets will be cared for with patience, respect, and genuine love. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work full-time, but I’m always available for early-morning walks before work, and I’m typically home from the office around 4 p.m. to handle evening walks, feeding, and playtime. I also work from home three days a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide extra attention, check-ins, and companionship throughout the day. Your pets will get consistent care and a reliable routine they can count on. In my home, your dog will have plenty of company—my own dog and my roommate’s dog are both friendly and love having a new playmate around. We live near a park, so the dogs get plenty of chances to run, explore, and burn off energy. I also keep everything organized with a shared board where I track each dog’s walk times, potty breaks, and feeding schedule. This helps ensure your pet stays on a consistent routine and receives attentive, reliable care. Whether at my home or yours, I focus on safety, structure, and making sure every dog feels comfortable and cared for.

About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life — from dogs and cats to guinea pigs, sugar gliders, and even a pet chicken! Today, I’m the proud pet mom of two dogs (Poppy, a sweet pit-hound mix, and Banks, a goofy Great Pyrenees pup) and one curious cat named Sterling. As a fellow pet parent, I know how important it is to feel your fur baby is safe, loved, and truly cared for while you’re away. I treat every pet like my own — with patience, affection, and lots of playtime or snuggles (depending on their vibe!). Whether your pet needs structured care, a calm companion, or just someone who gets how much they mean to you, I’m here to help. I work from home full-time, so your pet will have my full attention throughout the day. Whether they need frequent potty breaks, extra playtime, or just a cozy companion nearby, I’ll be there — basically at their beck and call! I have a temporary fenced yard enclosed with galvanized steel fencing — it safely contains my two pups during supervised outdoor time. I never leave any dogs outside unsupervised. If you’d prefer your dog stays leashed, I’m more than happy to accommodate that! Inside, my home is set up in a way that allows me to separate your pet from mine if needed, to ensure a safe and comfortable experience for everyone.

“First time using Rover and Christina did a good job. Simple request to take our pups for a walk up a hill, for therapy, and she executed it.”

“Christina takes great care of my dog… always on time & takes Koda for a long walk. She is a great dog walker!”

“First, I've never used this type of service before. Alissa was accommodating, attentive, prompt and very caring for my dog, Lilly. If Alissa is the standard of the type of people that will care for my dog, I would use this service again, without a doubt. And, I wouldn't hesitate in booking Alissa, and recommending her to everyone.”

About: I have been a veterinary technician for the last 19 years. I have spent the majority of that time working at a small animal practice, but also worked at an emergency and specialty practice for 4 years during that time as well. During my career, I have dealt with numerous c-sections, geriatric, diabetic, and renal patients. Meaning that, injections, SQ fluid, oral meds, etc, are not a problem.. I have also done pet sitting on the side for many years during this time as well. I have always had a love for animals. I currently own a 9 year old mixed breed dog, as well as a cat, and chinchilla. I have had many pocket pets over the years as well. I currently work full time, overnights only, on the front end of the week. I plan accordingly, to make sure the pets needs are met before and after work shift, and spoil them extra on the days I’m off. I adjust to whatever needs the pet requires, and make our schedules work in sync so that there are no issues with bathroom breaks, or feeding/medications.

About: I’ve taken care of pets since my early 20s. I began fostering dogs in my early 30s and even had some foster failures. I have always been that friend, neighbor, stranger that will stop and help and animal in need or just stop the world to say hi to a four legged love ! I have full open availability! I am a teacher and am home during the summer so I can meet most needs. I am also willing to travel to help a pup in need. I prefer to board at home and I have two small pups at home, Eli and Gidget. Eli is a 12 year old Havanese and Gidget is a 2 year old Brug. They are sweet and get along with all animals and people.

About: I have experience working in both a veterinary clinic and a boarding facility, where I cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Through these roles I cared for pets with a wide range of personalities, ages, and needs while learning how to recognize signs of stress, illness, and discomfort. I am comfortable caring for puppies, adults, and seniors and I understand the importance of maintaining routines to help pets feel safe and comfortable. As a veterinary assistant, I also have experience handling animals using fear free techniques and compassion, giving owners peace of mind that their fur babies are in capable hands. My goal is to provide attentive, reliable care and treat every pet like family. I'm currently on summer break from college so I will be available for bookings through June-August 21st. I am available for weekends and weekdays when needed. I focus on maintaining your pet's normal routine as closely as possible. I follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication (if needed), and any other care requirements. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and cared for while you're away by providing reliable, attentive care in their familiar environment

About: Throughout my life I’ve helped to care for dogs dealing with lifelong epilepsy to elderly dogs to extra large dogs that are deathly afraid of stairs. I have also previously worked in a pet store so I have experience with a wide range of animals. I currently have a dachshund and do everything within my power to help avoid future back problems like dachshund are notorious for and hope to also help you and your pet needs. I currently have a very flexible schedule and already enjoy taking my dog for walks whether it be around the block or a 5k around the park and would love to see where your little one fits in. With dachshunds being notorious for back problems I start the day by giving him a little back massage before taking him out I like to keep a tidy environment to ensure pups don’t get into anything they shouldn’t . I also have a large fenced in yard and two large outdoor kennels to allow dogs to play.

About: I have been a pet owner since the day I was born. And I don't know what it's like to live without a pet concidered family. I will care for your pet and spoil their needs. As upon your approval lol. I love walks and the outdoors. And your pets won't regret my company. I work early mornings so I'm home by 130 and they dogs go for a nice long and have my full attention to bed time I have always had more 2 dogs loving with him. I know routine, and great adjusting to their schedules. I know to administer medications actions and work with different diets.

“Julie is fantastic! Such a relief to find someone who takes just as good of care of my baby when I’m gone. Punctual for his walks every week, sends pictures of what they’re up to, and I trust her care with him 100%. My dog loves Julie and is excited to see her every time she stops in!

About: Hello animal lovers! My name is Jonathan and I'm 33 years old. Being in the army for 13 years has given me attention to detail and discipline. I absolutely love being around dogs and seeing them roam around, play and be happy. I take great pleasure in caring for them. On our walks we go around the neighborhood, play in the back yard and give them plenty of scratchies. My dog is family and so as yours. Any dog that steps paw into my home is family as well. So, feel at ease and know that your best bud is being cared for with love! I have a natural love for all animals and creating that special bond with them. I have about 17 years of caring experience with mostly dogs and 1.5 yrs with cats. All different breeds in order from Dalmatian, rescue dogs, Miniature Schnauzer and now currently my English Bull Terrier. I reassure you that your family member will be treated like a baby with love, care and safety. While your dog is with me I will attempt to teach your dog tricks; sit, stay, shake paw and stay(hold) till food is given upon your request (Treats must be provided). My stay home wife and I rotate between our schedules to give the best care possible for all the furr babies that step into our home. I have a fenced yard with one friendly dog. I have plenty of space if you prefer to bring a crate. If you have any concern from your dog being an escape artist. I have a LED light color that glows to see the dog easier. As well a GPS collar for any extra measurements that would have to be taken.
