“Yumi and Cody (her husband) were fantastic, excellent communicators, and very timely. We have a Shiba Inu who needs two walks a day to pee/poo and an indoor cat. Yumi did drop in visits for both of the pets and they loved her and Cody! They sent us photos of the fur babies and reported what they did each time. They even got our cat a new toy which was so so sweet. We feel at peace leaving the pets with them! Thank you both so so much!”


About: I have had my own dogs for the last 15 year. I’ve learned to care for them and nurture them. I’ve even had the privilege of helping my dog bring her puppies to the world. I’ve had dogs of the size of a cockapoo up to German Shepards. If you are looking for someone to treat your furry friend as if they were their own, you’ve come to the right place. I’m a stay at home mom who only has to drop off and pick up my kids from school. I am flexible with the hours. All I ask is that for boarding you book at least one week in advance. I have a fenced backyard with a pool and 2 fury friends to keep your dog company. I can crate your dog if necessary. Your furry friend can even go for a swim if it likes.

About: I have over 10 years of pet care. From pets to walks to giving meds, I have loads experience with pets. I love treating them with respect and giving them that extra attention they deserve! I am usually off by 3pm and enjoy evening walks. I think it would be really great to get back into taking walks. I am very excited about this opportunity I like to treat animals with respect. I think it’s very important to create boundaries especially in a home where they do not like pets on their furniture.

About: I have owned pets my whole life and have always felt that they were a part of my own family! As soon as I moved out on my own I got my very own official first pet! Now I have two cats and a small aquarium. I've dog sat for family throughout their animals lives. Along with healthier animals i have also had experience with dogs who have seizures and are at the later stages of their lives. My own pets are like family to me and I spend time with them each day. Besides feeding them and basic care I spend time playing with them, cuddling with them and giving them all the attention they deserve. My work schedule is flexible and I am able to change my work times to fit the needs of my pets. In my home I spend a lot of time talking and cuddling with my pets. They also get hyper at times and I play along with them with their toys or just with my hands. When dogsitting my family's animals it would depend on the animal. Some of the dogs were elderly so they would not want to walk very much and just would require some love and affection. Others were very hyper and I would play with them and walk them outside when it wasn't too hot.

About: Grew up with different dog breeds of different sizes. I currently have a German Shepard mix with Belgian Malinois in my household. Majority of our dogs have been adopted from the shelter. I have attended a beginners dog training for a dog of my own that is a German Shepard mix with Belgian Malinois. I cared in the past for another fur baby (Yorkshire Terrier) who was on the older side and disabled. Our fur babies need exercise, care, love and fun & therefore I am here to help! I will make sure to stay on your preferred routine that way your pup has lots of fun playing, stays well fed and hydrated, & receives extra love during your time apart. I am happy to work with you on your dog’s needs to keep your pup happy, safe and healthy. I’m currently have a flexible schedule and this allows me to have extra time in the day to care for and have fun with your fur babies. I have a private fenced front yard and along with a gated back yard. I also have a friendly and calm dog that will provide your pup with company too. I also have crates and extra dog bowls at home if needed.

“Mia was amazing walking/caring for my dog while I’m away! She’s very detailed in her report cards and follows all instructions. I felt comfortable with my baby in her care. Will definitely have her back.”


About: Hi there! I’ve been helping my aunt dog sit for years, and I’ve had dogs of my own for as long as I can remember. I’m all about belly rubs, long walks, and cozy cuddle time. Your pup will be loved like family and spoiled with attention, treats, and tail-wagging fun! Since I’m on summer break, my days are wide open for tail wags, playtime, and cuddle sessions! I have plenty of time to give your pet all the love, attention, and care they need—whether it’s a long walk, a cozy nap buddy, or just someone to keep them company. 🐾☀️ When caring for pets in your home, I treat it like my own—clean, calm, and full of love. I follow your pet’s routine closely, from mealtimes to playtime and everything in between. Whether it’s snuggles on the couch or a game of fetch in the yard, your furry friend will feel safe, happy, and right at home with me there. 🐾🏡💕

About: I can't say that I am better than other sitters, but what I can say about myself is that I have patience with dogs. I have experience caring for dogs of all weights and sizes. I also have a pretty good knowledge of most breeds and what requirements some dogs have. You can feel comfortable knowing that your companion will be in great care while you are away. I am currently open to new clients and to help ease the tension and stress of planning your next visit. With most sitters and walkers unable to fit you into their schedule, I will do my best to make myself available to you. I will work on building a routine for your companion filing their day with a fun and play. While you are away you can be assured your companion will be in safe hands and your home will be too!

“Tiffanny did a great job walking my dog while I was recuperating from surgery. She was very professional, showed up on time, and has a great attitude. Her genuine love for dogs really shines through! My dog definitely took to her and was excited to see her. She also takes great dog photos! Highly recommended!”

About: I’ve been working with dogs since I was 13 years old My first job was a dog groomer. My second job. I worked at st Mark’s dog boarding where I was pet sitting the entire time, I’ve been fostering cats my whole life as well, finding them new homes and even nursing newborn kittens back to health who has been abandoned from their mothers. I really have a soft spot when it comes to any animals I love dogs and I have one of my own who I love like I gave birth to him haha I’m currently working part time just looking for an extra hobby that I love and spending time and taking care of animals. Sounds like the perfect job for me Huge animal lover, dogs, cats hamsters you name it. Haha my availability is usually open. I have a fenced yard with three friendly dogs at my house and five cats and a ferret who are all well taking care of and friendly:)

About: Ever sense I was a kid I had a passion for animals and caring for them even wanting to be a vet as a kid. Although I decided I didn’t have the heart for that, pet sitting became a huge passion and hobby of mine. As a kid I would watch my families pets that through brought over and as I got older I started watching pets for family spends and neighbors as well as walking their dogs and pet sitting other kinds of pets such as snakes, birds, turtles, etc! I have experience feeding, walking, bottle feeding, cleaning up after, troubleshooting, and I can’t wait to care for your pet! I’m new to the app so I’m working on getting recommendation letters from clients but can provide references upon request. I accept any type of animal that doesn’t require a license to care for so feet free to reach out about your birds, snakes, fish, other reptiles etc! My name is Mykayla I go by Mac, I’m 24 and live in the IE in Montclair. I work a full time job as an MST Nusury Lead at Lowe’s and like to pet sit after work and on my days off! It’s something I genuinely enjoy doing and gives meaning to my life. I adore waking up every day knowing I’m going to meet a new friend and they are truly the sweetest. I would love, care for, and protect your fur baby as I would mine because they all deserve that. I always make sure to thoroughly read through the instructions the pets owner has left for me and make sure to treat your pet and living space as I would treat my own. I don’t typically do in home pet sitting as I have my own cat but might make an exception for friendly pets. I do work a full time job so I work around that but always make sure the pets needs are met first and I would not accept a gig if I don’t think I could accommodate the pet adequately. I know the neighborhoods pretty well as I’ve grown up here so taking pets on walks is always super fun and safe! I love to take the pets on little adventure if allowed of course, taking them to the park and letting them roam during walks. I also provide the same amount of stimulation for cats and indoor pets who love to play and release that energy. I’m very knowledgeable about pet care for example I don’t let my cat play with fake feathers because they’re very harmful if ingested and cannot be digested so I know I’m very particular and careful about my own pet and would treat yours with the same level of safety.

About: I’m a genuine animal lover with over 50yrs of pet ownership of dogs and cats. I will that will give your animals all the love and care possible on my visits. I work from home part-time, so I’m free to drop in and care for your fur babies anytime during the day, Monday through Friday. Weekend visits? I’ve got those covered too, just let me know! For drop-in visits, I’ll follow your detailed instructions to the letter, ensuring your pets get the exact care you’d give them yourself. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, a quick walk, or just some love and attention, I’ll make sure your fur babies feel happy, safe, and well looked after while you’re away.

Joseph C.
“For the few years I have known Joseph, he has shown nothing but love and adoration for any dogs in his life. Even on play dates with my own dogs at the dog park. He is always attentive and aware of everything going on, and knows canine behavior very well. He would move mountains to make sure any dog, or animal for that matter, would have the best care while under his watch. He has a passion for helping dogs be happy and healthy, and has shown that in the care of his own dogs. He even treats my dogs like his own, even when he doesn't need to. He has a passion and drive to work with dogs, even in the smallest ways possible. He would be a great addition to helping keep anyone's animals safe and cared for when they need to leave them alone, even for a couple hours.”
