About: Thank You for showing interest in my services, here's a little about me! :) I've grown happily with cats and large dog breeds throughout my entire childhood! I currently have one cat and have recently had my childhood Pitbull pass from old age. Growing up, taking care of the pets were my responsibility and is something I am passionate about. I've pet sitted for friends and family before and I'm confident in my ability to take care of your companion as I have for mine and my loved ones! I've interacted with many different personalities and your companions comfort and safety will always be my top priority! I'm currently working a part-time evening job with plently of free time before 3pm, I have up to 3 days off during the week to which I will be available at any time! I consistently update my calendar for transparency regarding availability and to avoid overlapping clients! I currently live in a apartment with my cat. In the neighborhood there are several parks within walking distance. However for house sitting your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness serves as top priority to create a stress free environment for the client and their companion!

Caren took wonderful care of our two pups while we were away for three days! She was incredibly communicative throughout, sending frequent updates and lots of sweet photos that kept us reassured and connected. She followed all of our feeding and care instructions perfectly, and it was clear our dogs were happy and comfortable with her. We came home to two relaxed, well-loved pups — we highly recommend Caren to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dogsitter!

About: My family has had many pets throughout the years and I’ve loved and cared for every one of them. I’ve been a huge animal lover all my life. I’m very energetic and enthusiastic and love to have fun. I’m active and athletic, and I love walking and traveling. Any size, breed, or speed; it doesn’t matter! I’ll adjust to your dog and their behaviors. I don’t just walk your dog and go; I love to stay for a while afterwards to play and spend time with them so they don’t feel lonely. Even if you have a cat, I am more than happy to go visit, check up on them, and make sure their needs are met, as well as play time! I just love all animals and love getting to know them and spend time with them. When I’m with your pet, my focus and attention is 100% on them. I make sure they are happy, and when they’re happy that makes me happy. This is currently my full time job so I have all the time in the world to care for your pets! I love being active and getting movement in, it’s always fun with a pup! I don’t offer boarding in my home because I live with my family. But I love caring for pets in your home! We play, eat, walk - whatever they want!

With my gentle, attentive approach, I will always make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved during every walk or visit!

Creating a safe and trusting environment is always my top priority!

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and absolutely adore them. My family has a sweet rescue pup we've loved for over 10 years, so I know how much care, patience, and attention dogs need to feel safe and happy. Since moving to Jersey City from Chicago, I’ve been missing the daily joy of dog companionship and would love the chance to help others care for their pups—whether that means walks, playtime, or just providing a cozy and loving presence while you're away. I'm eager to earn your trust and make a new furry friend (or two!) in the neighborhood. I'm currently building my own travel advisor business and work from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I don’t work full-time hours and am often looking for a reason to get out of the apartment—what better way than spending time with a pup! I’m available for daytime walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting, and can easily adjust my routine to meet your dog’s needs. Whether it’s a quick potty break or some midday playtime, I’m happy to help however I can. I currently offer pet care in my client’s home, where your dog is already comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I always make sure doors and gates are securely closed, walks are done with care, and routines are followed closely. I’ll take the time to understand your dog’s needs and any specific instructions you have. My goal is to make your pup feel safe, loved, and relaxed while you're away. And to give you peace of mind that they're in good hands.

Camila was sweet enough to do drop-in visits for a feral cat we feed while we were away. Basically leaving food and water out on our porch each night, and the necessary clean up. She sent photos when she could :) It was such peace of mind to know our furry friend wasn't left hungry. Thank you very much Camila!

I am a full time online student, so I am extremely flexible to any day of the week, any time of day, especially last-minute bookings. I am also amenable to any particular schedules your pet might have. In your home, I will treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would my own. I stick to your pet's routine to minimize stress. I'll also water plants, bring in mail, and keep things tidy while you're away. You'll get daily updates, pics, and peace of mind knowing your fur baby is in great hands!

I live in a spacious apartment where your dog can freely explore and relax. I’m committed to providing a safe and fun environment, with the added bonus of my playful brother, who enjoys spending time with dogs. Rest assured, your pup will feel like part of the family while you're away!

Camila was sweet enough to do drop-in visits for a feral cat we feed while we were away. Basically leaving food and water out on our porch each night, and the necessary clean up. She sent photos when she could :) It was such peace of mind to know our furry friend wasn't left hungry. Thank you very much Camila!

About: I have a genuine love and respect for animals of all kinds! I could easily spend the entire day playing with fur friends without hesitation. I am a full time online student, so I am extremely flexible to any day of the week, any time of day, especially last-minute bookings. I am also amenable to any particular schedules your pet might have. In your home, I will treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would my own. I stick to your pet's routine to minimize stress. I'll also water plants, bring in mail, and keep things tidy while you're away. You'll get daily updates, pics, and peace of mind knowing your fur baby is in great hands!
