About: I had a family dog majority of my young life - a bichon frisé that made it to 17 years - and I recently moved to New Jersey and looking to get some quality dog time back in life. I love dogs - they bring me the upmost joy and I would love to bring them joy by taking care of them for you when needed! I’m currently working full time - I can be available evenings on workdays for a visit or walk - weekends I’ll be free for schedule unless travel is scheduled but that will be noted. I have an apartment that could have a dog visit if need be - it’s all lvt flooring except for the loft. It is a complex building and I am on the top floor but there is stairs as well as elevators to use.

“Kim is fantastic! She's great with Betty and I felt so comfortable leaving my baby in her hands. She also moved some packages in for us which was above and beyond kind and helpful!”
3. Eleni C.
“We used Eléni for daily waking while we were away. She was so sweet and loving to Jake and helped my mother in law with some medication he needed on his paw. She was punctual and walked him for the full agreed upon time plus more for belly rubs! I highly recommend Eléni and will definitely be using her again when the need arises!”

About: Hi, I am a retired animal technician who had a beautiful beagle for 12 years. Got to raise her with my family from a puppy until adulthood. I miss having my own dog around but cannot get another one of my own so now I dog sit! Love taking them out for walks and going to the park with them! You can be sure your dog will be happy and safe under my care, lots of experience with animals especially having taken care of my own for so long and also having grown up with animals around. I am based out of a New Jersey suburb and am looking forward to take care dogs from nearby towns! For any additional pet services do not hesitate to ask.
