Pet care experience

Local caring responsive pet lover

I'm a local Bergen County resident and a lifelong non-smoking pet lover. I love running, playing, and engaging dogs through walks, playdates, and cuddle time. I've grown up with many different animals in my home including dogs like my Wheaten Terrier (Magic), Labradoodle (Lucy), and mixed breed (Alfie) along with cats such as Mrs. Katz and Mrs. Cohen. I strive to take this experience to now care for your pet companions. Since I have grown up with such loving animals, I understand the dedication and commitment required to care for your pet(s). I'll be sure to be as responsive and flexible around both you and your pet's needs as I work to care for your loving fur babies just as I would my own family member. I'm a young father and look forward to caring for your furry companion throughout the Bergen and Passaic county area.

Sam was great. Penny is extremely timid with new people. He put in more effort with her than most people and did get her to go outside briefly. Thank goodness.

He is an excellent sitter! He changes the little, feeds my cat Teddy, and will play with/snuggle with Teddy (as Teddy desires). The best part is that Teddy really likes him! I have hired him multiple times and will continue to do so.

Sam was reliable and my kitties were well cared for while I was away! He cleaned their many litter boxes daily and even made sure my basil plant was watered outside. Thanks to him I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation.
