House Sitting in Kinnelon

“Chelsea was awesome with Waffle! She kept me updated with photos and messages, and it was clear Waffle was having a great time. Chelsea was easy to communicate with, reliable, and made me feel completely comfortable leaving Waffle in her care. I’d definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter!”

“Aletris was great with my dogs. She kept us updated and took care of them like her own. She went above and beyond will definitely rebook with her!”

About: Where I live I’m not allowed to have any animals which is not a dream however, I get to live out my dream when I get to care and enjoy your animals while you are gone for the day or on trips! I work part time and I am a student. I like to keep the animals on the same timeline as you have them if I can. I will make the best accommodation I can! I enjoy playing and have fun while keeping the pet active. I try to keep everyone on their normal routine just with a spin of fun!

“Ivy was very good with our senior dog Jack. She followed his care instructions carefully and updated me through the overnight stay with pictures and texts. She was very responsive to our texts during her stay and maintained communication. She is very polite and was respectful of our home and more importantly, very responsible in caring for our dog’s needs. She even walked Jack through the pouring rain! I would definitely recommend her to anyone in need of a dependable pet sitter!”

About: Hello friends, furry and small, hairless or tall! My name is Anthony, and I have been in love with animals of all kinds since childhood. I would always be the family member to watch others' households and pets while they were away. As of recently I've maintained a household of my two dogs, Eve (Lab-Pit Mix; 36lbs.) & Wall-E (Lab-Border Collie Mix, 55lbs.), and my two cats, Salem (Short Hair; 9lbs.) & Loki (Short Hair; 16lbs.), and I have successfully fostered several other animals. I have experience in caring for all dogs of all kinds, conditions and sizes, and the same for cats! I tend to care for animals as best they should be, focusing on their mental, emotional and of course their physical health with diet, snacks, exercise, grooming and any other special need! I am often willing to share my thoughts, concerns or suggestions making sure you understand everything I am offering you and your pets and what ever other ways I can help. I am CPR certified for both pets & humans, and I have some veterinary assistance experience. I have a flexible schedule currently as I am not working a full time job, I can't wait to meet you & your pets! I'm currently working part time and I have a very flexible schedule I can move things around if need be to accommodate almost any need! I have years of experience going into the home while following any previous instructions if necessary.

I have a fenced in backyard and live in a quiet area with lots of side streets. The other dogs in the neighborhood are also very friendly.

“Rebecca was absolutely fantastic with our fur babies! We have a cat and an older dog with digestive issues that requires specific care. Usually, we travel with our pets, but unfortunately, this time, we couldn’t. I’m a nervous wreck when I leave them with anyone else because of past experiences and illnesses that have occurred in my absence. Before booking, Rebecca was completely transparent about any prior commitments that might take her away from our home for a few hours. She wanted to ensure that this would still be a good fit for our dog’s well-being. I really appreciated that Rebecca was incredibly kind and attuned to the needs of our animals. She handled them with the utmost patience and understanding. I believe her to be incredibly trustworthy, and both our dog and cat absolutely adored her. I received countless photos, videos, and updates of our dog doing her happy dance, taking naps, and snuggling up on the couch with Rebecca. One day our dog had an upset stomach which is always a cause for concern with her chronic health issues, and Rebecca went above and beyond to ensure that she did everything possible to care for her properly. She kept me fully in the loop and even offered to cook rice and broth for her in case she needed to settle her stomach. I mentioned that sweet potato usually helps her eat again if needed, and Rebecca offered to drive and pick one up so that she could ensure it was a good quality for my dog, rather than me having one delivered to the house: Thankfully my dog finally decided to eat her food and got better in the evening but like I said, she went above and beyond. I would/will hire Rebecca again and entrust her with our fur babies without hesitation. She was simply phenomenal and is a pet owner’s dream come true. Rebecca, Thank you so much for taking such excellent care of our fur babies!”

“Antonia is an expert dog walker. She took excellent care of my pups while I was away And when one of them got very seriously ill, she acted quickly and allowed us to get my Coco to the vet to get the help she needed. She also expertly cleaned up my house from the sick dog. I highly recommend her to anyone.”

“Great service! Brad is an excellent communicator, and took great care of our dog and home. He kept me up to date and was always fast to reply. Our house was spotless when we returned and he was very tidy (which was also important to us).”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 12, starting with pet sitting for family and friends and later working as a dog groomer in high school. My dog Bailey really shaped how I connect with animals and understand their needs. Now, I work with dogs regularly through shelter photography and in home sessions, so I’m very comfortable with different breeds, temperaments, and routines. I currently work part-time, so my schedule is super flexible for your pup’s needs! I work Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday getting out by 4 PM on Sunday and Saturday and 6 PM on Mondays and Tuesdays. The rest of the week? I’m all yours! I’m also a total morning person, so even on workdays, I’m available for early walks and drop-ins before 9AM. Whether your pup needs some morning playtime or midday company, I’ve got the time (and energy!) to make it happen. After losing my dog Bailey, who was truly my best friend, I realized just how deeply I care for animals and how important it is to treat every pet like they’re your own. I’m incredibly attentive when I’m pet sitting always checking in to make sure your pup is happy, comfortable, and safe. I go on lots of hikes and adventures, but I never go unprepared I always bring an emergency kit and usually have a buddy with me, just in case. I also volunteer at shelters as a photographer, so I’m constantly meeting new dogs and have a lot of patience for pups with big personalities or nerves. Whether it’s cuddles, structure, or a good game of fetch, your dog’s needs always come first with me.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs all of my life, and grown up with them since the day I was born. I’ve never not had a dog, my childhood dog lived to be 16 years. I’m here to do what I love and be able to spend my time with all of your fur babies Im flexible I walk dogs while being able to finish school, I do this Monday through Friday and I’m looking to get more overnight sits for the weekends I care for every animal as if they are my own they will be as equally as spoiled as they would in their own home. The safety of your animal is not in question with me because I understand how much we worry about our animals when they aren’t able to be with us.

“Brooke is an all around wonderful person and it translates over to the way she cares for dogs. Our dog, Chancha, had the best time with her! It was a last minute booking, too! My boyfriend took me on a surprise trip to propose and if it weren’t for Brooke’s quick response and willingness to dog sit, he might’ve haven’t had that chance or made this trip happen! So, thank you beyond words!!! She is responsible, compassionate, and truly someone that loves dogs. I wouldn’t skip her over! She is 6 stars out of 5.”

About: My friends used to call my house a zoo. In all, I have cared for dogs, a beardie, a ferret, fish, birds, hamsters, you name it. The only animal I really don't have experience with is a snake, but I have always admired their beauty. No matter what species you love, I will love and acre for them just as much! I am a teacher, and therefore am available after 4 PM on weekdays, and on the weekends. I am available during Christmas break and all federal holidays. If we live within a few miles of each other, I can make myself available between 5-6:30 AM. I am open to coming to you, or keeping your beloved fur baby with me! I do not crate (unless of course you request it), and I do not have a fenced-in yard just yet, but we are on .25 acres (your love-bug would reside with myself and my boyfriend, who has 2 Golden Retrievers and 2 orange cats at his family's house). If you don't normally have your furbaby in bed with you, we will follow that plan, but I have no issue with a bad night's sleep if it means I get to cuddle them.

“Last minute trip and Erinn responded quickly. We were delayed getting home and she came back to take care of our animals . Very responsive. Communicates regularly. Will be using her again.”

“Gabrielle was a GREAT house sitter! The animals were happy when I got home, she did everything and then some that I asked, and she left no footprint behind. I couldn’t be happier and I hope she will come house sit our pets again soon! Thank you so so much, I really appreciate you Gabrielle!”

About: I have had a pet by my side since the day I was born. Pets are family and they deserve to be treated as such. Specifically, I have cared for other pets the last 7 years; feeding and cleaning fish tanks, overnight stays combined with daily dog walks and changing cat litter and cleaning their coats. To care for other's pets is a privilege that I do not take lightly, there is trust and commitment needed. I want to allow individuals to feel comfortable that their pet is cared for in times when they are unable to do so themselves. Above all else if a pet needs care, I want to provide them with a friendly face, playful affect and calm presence to ensure successful care treatment. I am currently working a full-time job that requires me to work 8:30am-4:30pm Monday-Friday. I occasionally work 1 day of the weekend and will provide full schedule is a service is requested. I will provide open and honest communication with client and maintain a flexible schedule outside of work hours. Currently I am unable to board pets in my home. It is something I hope can happen later in life at a different residence. In the client's home, I will care for their pet as they would like me to, ultimately wanting the pet to maintain their normal schedule as best as possible.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since childhood and previously had 2 dogs of my own. I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, and providing calm, loving care to both dogs and cats. I pay close attention to each pet’s needs and personality. I have a structured but flexible schedule that allows me to reliably care for pets before and after work, as well as on weekends. I prioritize clear communication and consistency so pets feel comfortable and owners feel at ease. I create a calm and safe environment by following the pet’s usual routine and the owner’s instructions. I’m attentive, detail-oriented, and respectful of both the pet and the home, treating each situation with care and responsibility.

About: Full-time aunt to Kobe, a silky terrier 6 year-old sassy, well trained boy, with a strong personality. Part-time aunt to all of my friend's animals, cats/dogs, of all shapes and sizes. Super observant of animal behavior in order to understand animals needs. Highly prioritize communicating with owners about their animals, to learn and adapt to animals/owners needs. I enjoy active days, especially with a cool dog to run around or play ball with. I'm also just as good at lounging around as your cat is, if it needs someone to fluff around with, I'm that person too. I can hold down my own, when it comes to extra large sized animals or even the fiercest of them all- the tiny animals. Besides creating a fun environment for your animals, I'm also creating a positive active environment for myself. Nothing makes me happier than cool animals, they are great company. I am a fan of walks as it is, so to have an animal join me in my outdoor adventures sounds like the perfect day to me. I am currently in a space where I am working from home, so it's been nice to have the company from all the animals as well as a reason to get up from my desk during the daily walks. I am quite clean when it comes to animals, so wiping of the paws after entering from the outdoors is on a list of to-do's for me. They do after all, sleep in our beds and walk on our couches. I also do not like ingredients like wheat and filler, so I always make sure to have any/all treats or foods with ingredients that will elongate the life rather than cut it short. I do not actually have the space to board at this time, but I am more than accommodating to keeping animals in their home space to make sure they are in their most comfortable mental state, while their parent/parents are away.
