“Alison was incredibly patient with my new rescue dog, Olive, who tends to need a bit of time to warm up to people. She took some time to give Olive some treats and get to know her prior to taking her out for the walk which was so appreciated! I am excited to have her take Olive on more walks.”

“It was great meeting Liwei! He took wonderful care of Rio and, just as importantly, was patient in doing a proper meet-and-greet with the whole family to understand the environment Rio lives in. That thoughtfulness really put us at ease. Rio was in great hands, and we’d highly recommend Liwei to anyone looking for a caring, attentive sitter. Looking forward to booking again!”

Aspiring full-time pet caregiver, currently available with a flexible schedule. Passionate about pets and ready to provide dedicated, loving care. Let's make tails wag together!

“Tony has been great with our very anxious dog! She can be very shy with new walkers but she warmed up to him quickly. We know she's always getting good care when he comes by.”

“Eduardo is very thoughtful in how he approaches and walks Teddy. I really appreciate that he’s taken the time to get to know Teddy’s quirks and habits to make sure he has a great experience on his walks. He’s also very communicative, which I really appreciate! I look forward to having Eduardo spend more time with Teddy on his walks!”

“Kaitlin was great with Cody, our senior cockapoo. I left Cody with my senior parents and Kaitlin walked him 2x a day for 10 days. I would definitely book her services again.”

“Dona is wonderful. She is kind, considerate, shows up on time and I appreciate how communicative she is. She took great care of my very excitable golden. Soul spends half his time in the countryside where he was trained off leash. Being in the city takes a little of adjusting when he gets back into the swing of things but Dona went out of her way to practice sitting and staying at cross walks and correcting him when he would pull on the leash. I’ve noticed a big difference due to her guidance and will continue to use her whenever Soul is in the city! I know Soul is in the most loving hands when with Dona. If you are looking for your fur baby to be safe & well cared for, don’t hesitate…reach out to Dona. 10/10 recommend”


“Lucia was a huge help in walking our dog - she came early, and dealt with our very shy dog who wouldn’t come out from under the bed for 30 minutes - treating him with patience, care and love! Highly recommend”

About: I’ve been around dogs pretty much my whole life. I had a Siberian Husky and a Pomeranian Spitz of my own, and over the years neighbors, friends, and family have asked me to walk, feed, and look after their dogs. I’ve taken care of all kinds — from small fluffy ones to big energetic breeds. I just really like dogs and try to treat them the way I’d want someone to treat mine. I’m reliable, I don’t mind long walks, and I always send owners updates and photos so they know their dog is doing fine. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits while they’re at work, or staying overnight at their place, I’m happy to help out in Jersey City. I’m currently working part-time, so I have good flexibility during the day. I’m available for dog walks on weekdays in the morning and afternoon, and also on weekends. I can usually fit in walks between 9am and 6pm, and I’m happy to adjust if a regular client needs a specific time. When walking dogs, I always make sure they are secure on the leash and I pay close attention to their behavior and the surroundings. I follow the owner’s instructions about routes, other dogs, and any special needs. I’m calm and patient, and I do my best to give each dog a good, safe walk while keeping them happy and exercised. I also send photos and updates after the walk so owners know everything went well.
“Katie is so great with Ellie! She handles Ellie’s excitement very well. Her communication is amazing. Ellie comes back smiling and so happy each time. We are so happy to have her for walks when we need them!”

“Christina just recently started walking Jeter and when she came to meet him, they were immediate besties! I could tell right away that Christina is a true dog lover and would take care of Jeter like her own. Since Jeter is still under 2 years old, he can get very excited and riled up, Christina knew exactly what to do to help him feel settled and get ready for their walk! Jeter is so happy whenever Christina comes to take him for walks and she’s so responsive and sends great pics/updates throughout. Would highly recommend!”

“Susi is a great dog walker! My dogs loves her. She is punctual, very communicative and responsive and I get lots of cute photos of my dog when Susi walks him. I would definitely recommend her!”

“Alekhandra is great. Very punctual, my dog loves her, and she always spends good quality time with her during the length of the service. I appreciate the photos she takes and her notes on the walk. My go to walker.”

“This was my pup’s second walk with Fernando. Like last time, he was right on time and ensured my pup got a good long walk. He is easy to communicate with and a nice person.”

“Kobi is great! My dog has been transitioning to a new space and he has had a lot of anxiety. Kobi entered my apartment and sat down and waited for Henry to become comfortable! I really appreciated that and will continue to use her just for that small gesture. Thanks Kobi!”

“Sydney has been an excellent dog walker for Tucker! She is reliable, communicative, and always makes sure he gets the exercise and attention he needs. Tucker is always excited to see her, and I feel completely at ease knowing he’s in great hands. Highly recommend Sydney to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring walker!”

“Stephanie was great and helped me out in a cramped morning - Luna loved her, they got a ton of steps, and she was great! Look forward to future walks- thanks Stephanie!”

Here's the updated version: Averi was fantastic! This was my first time booking a dog walker and she made the experience great. She took great care of Prince for our dog walking booking and went above and beyond: making sure his water and food were taken care of. I could tell she genuinely loves dogs. She took him on nice long walks and checked in with me whenever she had questions. Communication was easy and she was reliable and on time. Highly recommend her, will definitely be booking with Averi again.

Eduardo is very thoughtful in how he approaches and walks Teddy. I really appreciate that he’s taken the time to get to know Teddy’s quirks and habits to make sure he has a great experience on his walks. He’s also very communicative, which I really appreciate! I look forward to having Eduardo spend more time with Teddy on his walks!

Kaylah was wonderful with Stella! She was prompt, caring, and very sweet. She stayed a little longer than expected, which I really appreciated. She also sent several pictures, which was great. I felt comfortable knowing Stella was in such good hands. I would definitely book Kaylah again!

Emily was great with Betty and Bambi! I booked her for a 30 minute walk for the first time, and everything went really smoothly. The girls warmed up to her right away, which I think says a lot because you can tell she’s genuinely a dog person. She was very sweet, soft-spoken, and friendly, and I immediately felt comfortable with her. She also arrived a little early to meet us, which I really appreciated. Betty and Bambi seemed to really like her, and I’d definitely be happy to have her walk them again! 🐶❤️

Li has been wonderful with Shae. He takes excellent care of her, and I’ve seen firsthand how warmly they interact. Li genuinely cares about Shae’s well-being and treats her as if she were his own. When my sister deployed, I unexpectedly found myself caring for a big dog, and Li became an incredibly helpful and dependable go-to person. I’m truly grateful for his care and support!
