Cassidy is a wonderful, experienced, thoughtful dog sitter. I returned from my trip and my mini-bernedoodle Zoe was clearly happy and content from her time spent with Cassidy. I highly recommend Cassidy for watching your pup.

It was my first time booking with Laci but it certainly won’t be my last! She was patient with my sometimes shy 12ish year old chihuahua. He seemed to warm up to her quickly which is great. And bonus, she took adorable pics of my little guy. ????❤️

About: I have experience walking dogs as a side hustle for over three years, and I have cats of my own. I also volunteered at a pet shelter, so I’m able to meet all types of animals’ needs. I’m happy to assist those in the area! As a remote intern, I have plenty of time throughout the day to spend time with your pets, without rushing walks or visits. I have flexible hours to be there when needed! Certain animals can behave differently when their owners are away from home, so it’s important to go above and beyond to show them love! I have cleaned many stress-related accidents for them and are attentive to their needs. I always try to play fetch with them if they’re interested!

About: I've had dogs all my life, the most recently i had a awesome miniature poodle who I was fortunate to love and care for 17 years, so I am familiar with the needs of senior dogs. My schedule is fairly open every day after about 9 or ten am. I'd like a regular opportunity, but one offs will be good as well I am available for pet sitting at the clients home, but due to younger kids I can accommodate pets at my home. Walking and feeding and playing is ideal

About: What sets me apart is that I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy caring for animals. I have experience with responsibility heavy roles like nannying, which has taught me how important routines, communication, and trust are when caring for someone else’s loved ones. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all personalities and energy levels, including pets who need extra patience, structure, or calm handling. I’m also attentive to feeding schedules, walking routines, crate training support, and keeping pets engaged through play and exercise. I make it a priority to follow instructions carefully and keep owners updated with messages and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether your pet needs active walks, gentle companionship, or consistent care while you’re away, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like they’re my own. I am flexible and open to both weekday and weekend bookings. I prefer morning and afternoon visits/walks, but I can accommodate evening care depending on the request. I’m currently a recent graduate from Montclair State University and am working toward my master’s degree at Rutgers in nutrition, so my schedule may vary slightly depending on school and coursework. However, I’m committed to being reliable, consistent, and communicative once a booking is confirmed. I’m available for: Morning check-ins and walks Midday visits Afternoon care Occasional evening bookings I do my best to respond quickly and accommodate last-minute requests when possible. I prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all owner instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walk times, litter box care, and any special needs or medications. In the client’s home, I am respectful of the space and keep everything clean and organized. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while also respecting their personality whether they are energetic and playful or prefer a calm and quiet environment. For dogs, I focus on safe walks, positive interaction, and structured care based on their energy level and routine. For cats, I understand the importance of space and consistency, and I always allow them to approach on their own terms to build trust. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners feel reassured and connected while they are away. My goal is always to care for each pet as if they were my own.

Madi and Abby were amazing! Our two young cats were so comfortable around Abby and that shows how great she was with them! She followed all instructions, sent tons of pictures that made us so happy while away, and even was extremely patient and communicative during a situation where our electric front door locked wouldn’t open! Would absolutely recommend and book again! So happy we found them!
