Furbabies bring peace! :D!
Pet care experience
I've been in the pet sitting service since I was 16 years old! I am 33 now and still going strong caring for all forms of furry family members (sometimes the scaly ones too!) I have a vast knowledge of dog and cat training, huge knowledge of pet health, lots of toys, and I live near a dog park! I specialize in all age groups (i.e. puppies, kittens, and seniors!) I have experience in administering medication, and I also have experience in special needs cases (i.e. deaf, blind, neurological, and behavioral.) My apartment is small and I do have my own pets, but they are all happy, healthy, strong, most importantly spayed, and neutered! They are always happy to meet more of their cousins both feline and canine! Safety is my top priority , so I make sure that I have a section of my apartment gated in case some visitors get a little spicy (laughs.) I hope I can be a good fit for your lovelies; I love working with animals and hope to continue to do so! During the school year Sept-June my work hours are Monday through Friday 8AM to 3:30PM and off on weekends, once I am home it's walkies, play time, then dinner for all the furkids. Oh! Nearly forgot to mention that all of my animals are fully vaccinated! During the day the animals are gated in their respected areas (my pets in the bedroom, your pets in the living room,) I play music, put on cartoons, and turn on my wifi connected security camera to check on everyone (app is on my phone to check live!) The great thing about the camera is that I can talk through it and it's got both motion and sound detection on! That way I can check why anyone is meowing or barking anytime :)! I am super flexible with drop offs and pick ups, and super flexible with all types of animal personalities :)! I look forward to meeting your furbabies! Animal will be on the same schedule as my own animals to avoid high stress levels. At first animals will be separated before meeting each other. Strictly leash walks, scheduled meals, and supervision at all times. Enrichment is everyday, as well as toys everywhere and clean play environment. Good food too!
Reviews
Raja and Zuma could not have had a better sitter. Adriana was caring, communicative, and set expectations early. We felt very safe leaving our two in her care as she is knowledgeable with both cats and dogs. Highly recommend and will definitely book again. Thanks Adriana!
One of most caring boarders of my dog. She takes great care of Madison from the very beginning!
Excellent! Adriana went above and beyond taking care of our Luigi! Thank you for all the care! God Bless you!
Adriana is definitely one of the best sitters I’ve used. I didn’t even need to bring food. The communication was great. She sent me videos during Bandit’s stay and communicated. She has animals of her own and I felt very comfortable leaving my fur baby in her care. I’ll reach out to her first if I ever need a sitter in Jersey again. ??☺️

I have a bedroom for any animals that tend to be a little extra spicy! And if the owner feels more comfortable to have their pet solo in a room instead of being around my pets :-).

Information Adriana C. would like to know about your pet
I do not have any breed preferences, I can work with any dog or cat (even if they are spicy!) I have scars from years of working with every type of animal, so nope I'm not afraid to be bitten or scratched, I'll just add it to my list of fun stories to tell. Since I live in a small apartment I can only provide my services to small breeds and cats at this time. I cannot lodge animals from different owners since that poses a health risk for the animals, the safer the better. I am super flexible and would be happy to provide food if your finances are a bit low, of course if you bring your own pet food that consists of your pets regular diet that's A-Okay! If you have an animal with special needs, medication, or behavioral problems it would be helpful to know this ahead of time before we do the meet and greet; that way I can properly assess your pets specific training and medical needs. I would also like to make sure I am available during its time for medication. Additionally if your pet has behavior problems (i.e. food aggression, not getting along with other animals, not potty trained) do not let that deter you from me, I have a flexible solution for every case (Crate training and 1 to 1 play time being some examples!) In a nutshell, please let me know ahead of time how your pets personality is, what his/her needs are, and what I can expect during the meet and greet, and we're golden :D!
A typical day
Walks every three hours, toys, companionship, training (with treats!) Scheduled meal times, dog park visits, a generally relaxing stay, free roaming in home (with supervision!) All above activities are at the owners request! I would never take your pet anywhere without the owners permission and knowledge, and I would never feed the pet any food that's not part of their regular diet! Cats are provided a nice space to isolate from my pets, and are given full privacy during their stay. All cats that come to me are treated like royalty and get my bedroom to themselves with all fun things cats love (i.e. cat trees, cardboard boxes, cat beds that allow them to burrow.) I also provide a large crate with a litter-box and food/water dish for them to stay in (with a cover to calm them and some aroma therapy cat nip) if the cat is really not liking the bedroom accommodations or my cats (laughs.) If you require more information or have more questions feel free to send me a message anytime!

My day job schedule is 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. so I mostly pet sit in the evenings and weekends if that is okay with the owners!
