Pet Sitting in Metuchen

“Michael was so amazing with my senior orange Ray Cat. What a wonderful job giving him his medicine 2 times and day, brushing, playing and treats. I always get worried because my boy can be a handle full at times, but Michael was such a amazing person for Ray Cat. Highly recommend and I feel so safe having him as Ray's sitter. Again thank you so much!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs and other animals for about 5 years now. I love all types of animals and know how to act around them to ensure that they feel relaxed. I walk my neighbor's dog all the time and have pet-sat for many friends before. I can administer medication if needed, bring them on walks, or train them. I am currently working part-time, so I have a relatively flexible schedule for overnight sitting, day sitting, dog/cat walks, etc. We can work out logistics! I am all about safety. I am diligent about following any rules or precautions that need to be followed. Please list any concerns or needs you need me to follow and I will ensure that those accommodations are met.

“Justine was great. This was my first time leaving my 7 month puppy for an extended time and I was very nervous. Justine did wonderful with him and made it possible for me to enjoy my day away. I’m thankful she was detail oriented and really listened to me regarding Monty’s limitations while he heals from surgery.”

About: I pride myself on my deep passion for working with dogs and ensuring, even when you are away, that they feel loved! For the last several years, I have been entrusted by neighbors, friends, and family members to watch and care for their beloved pets. My dedication to their well-being has earned me a solid reputation as a reliable and responsible dog walker. I am here to help you and your furbaby, please message me if you have any questions. As a college student home for the summer, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to incorporate pet care into my daily or weekly routine seamlessly When providing dog walking services, I ensure that each visit includes a refreshing walk tailored to the dog's needs, including exercise, bathroom breaks, and mental stimulation. I also make sure to provide fresh water, offer treats (if allowed), and give them plenty of attention and affection. As an owner myself, I understand how import it is to maintain open communication with the pet's owner which includes providing updates and photos to keep you informed and reassured of your pet's well-being.

“This was my first time leaving my babies (2 adult cats) for a week vacation and I’m grateful that Mary was there to love them while I was away. What I appreciated most was the thoughtful updates she provided each day, along with her ability to quickly recognize what each kitty needed to be taken care of for the week. I 100% will book with Mary in the future because I trust her and my cat Appy has definitely made a new friend!”

About: I am a furry friend lover and I have taken care of pups of friends and family and have boarded them at my home several times. My house is safe and pet friendly wherein your precious buddy can stay comfortably. I have built a safe fenced yard where I enjoy playing with Nala, our dog. I live in safe neighborhood and walk her or let her out multiple times a day. I have a 4 year old healthy female Cavapoo who is very friendly and enjoys walking and playing with other dogs. I regularly take my buddy Nala (my pet dog) for walks and would love to take yours too!!! My pet brings a smile on my face every morning. My day starts with taking my pet out for walk. Pets are free to roam in our house and make our home as theirs during their entire stay. Treats are shared (if owners are okay). Weather permitting free play in safe fenced yard in morning and afternoon. In evening playing fetch play, run around or relax outside as per pets mood. Myself and my family members give a short walk to my buddy Nala three times a day and in evenings we take her on long walks in neighbourhood, dog park, sometimes on dog friendly beach. I have a pet-friendly home with fenced yard wherein I provide safe and secure outdoor space to my adorable 4-year old healthy cavapoo who will play and will be a great company to your precious pup!! I live with my husband and 2 girls who love furry friends and they help me in taking care of them. We all enjoy playing with our pup. I respect your pets routine and will feed the pup as per the schedule and will walk your buddy as per owners instructions.

About: Gentle & reliable dog walker. Grew up with a Labrador, so I know the love (and energy!) dogs bring. Your pup’s safety & fun always come first 😊. My schedule is pretty relaxed. I have a part-time job from 4-8 pm Monday-Wednesday and work from home Thursday and Friday. Weekends are also generally free, but sometimes I have to take time to help take care of some stuff for my parents. My fenced-in backyard and the safety of my neighborhood provide peace of mind. Since I don’t have any other pets in my home, you can rest assured that your pets won’t encounter any issues or conflicts within the household.

About: Hello! I’m Alison - a lifelong animal lover that would be thrilled to care for your pets (really, I’m animal-deprived and it would make my day). I’ve been pet sitting for about 10 years and have experience with all kinds of animals, from feisty felines and shy shelter pups to horses, chickens, bearded dragons, donkeys, etc. I am experienced with unfriendly dogs and cats, elderly dogs, and puppies that are still learning good behavior. If you’d like I can run with dogs to tire them out or just take them on long walks, I live near multiple parks and would be happy to. I also have cat toys on hand and can play with and cuddle cats - truly whatever is needed. I’m reliable, easy to work with, and always attentive to your requests. I recently moved to Metuchen for my corporate job and, without having my old neighbors reach out to me for help with their pets, I decided to join Rover to find new pets to help watch. I would LOVE the chance to care for your pets - it would truly bring me so much joy! I work a flexible schedule. It is all over the place so to make it easy I will set my calendar as unavailable and open up days 1 week out, if you want to book more advance than 1 week I absolutely can just reach out first! I do not have any pets myself sadly. I have a very flexible schedule and can host pets at my apartment, do house visits, take pets on long walks, can even do runs with energetic pups.
