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 grew up on a farm in the midwest. We had all the animals. It was awesome. Now at 48 years old, healthy, tall and strong, I have owned lots of pets over the decades and have been pet sitting for longer than I can remember. I love animals more than people, and they all love me right back! I am in school online so my schedule is really open. Sunday morning for church is my only off day. I usually do my school work on Tuesday and Thursday but its very flexible. I am honest, respectable, Christian, reliable, experienced, trustworthy, and able bodied. I am an avid walker so this is a great fit. I also have a very calm demeanor that puts animals at ease.
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!
“Charlotte is absolutely fantastic—the best dog walker ever! She has been walking my high-energy, 1-year-old husky puppy, Maverick, for a month now and consistently goes the extra mile. When I sprained my foot, Charlotte even cleaned up Maverick’s mess in my apartment and grabbed my grocery essentials so I wouldn't stress. Maverick is super hyper and prone to pulling, but Charlotte is incredibly patient and kind. She actively trains him to focus and calm down. They have built a wonderful bond, and he gets so excited the second he sees her! She is completely reliable, always goes above and beyond, and walks him way longer to ensure he burns off his energy and gets a great, happy workout. She truly treats him like her own. I always have total peace of mind knowing Maverick is in such caring hands, especially she also communicates so well and sends great photo and video updates. I highly recommend her! Extremely grateful to have found Charlotte—she truly loves animals and is exceptionally genuine and caring.”

“Zoe was amazing with my boy Ace! We first met in person at my apartment where she got to meet Ace. Ace loves her at first sniff lol! We took a tour and got to know one another. Even before that I could tell Zoe was just a beautiful soul before we met. She was so nice to take care of Ace at my last minute request. She sent pictures, took him for nice long walks and communicated with me very well while I was away. I’m definitely going to use her for future boarding, walking and house sitting!”

I’m available throughout the week, with the exception of Tuesdays and Thursdays from 1–4 PM.

I have a secure, fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time, as well as a crate available if your pet is crate-trained or more comfortable having their own space. I also have two friendly dogs who are easygoing and can provide great company for pets who enjoy being around other dogs. I’ll always follow each owner’s instructions and respect their pet’s individual routine, personality, and boundaries. Whether your pet is in my home or I’m caring for them in yours, they’ll receive plenty of supervision, attention, and care in a safe and welcoming environment.

About: I had male husky growing up, fostered a female pit bull and rescued a 2 year old toy poodle. They have brought me so much joy through hikes, beach trips, and play dates with friends. I am excited to learn more about every pets unique personality especially through walking and playing time. Your pets will be in a safe and tidy environment with me. It would be extremely helpful to me if you can provide me with any information about your pet to allow them the most exciting and fun experience when they are with me. Hope to meet your furry friends very soon. I currently work hybrid and only go in person a few times a week. My days are flexible for house sitting, lots of long walks, potty breaks. I frequently accompany my neighbors and friends pets whenever they needed. Owners will leave me instructions for feeding, exercise and play time. For my poodle, we normally go on 3 walks a day, but now with the heat wave, she’s limited to two walks, early morning and evening. During the day, she’s kept busy with puzzle games and mental stimulation!

Robert has been a tremendous help walking our pup around the block during the summer. He is punctual, always shows up with a smile and our pup is always so happy to see him. I will definitely be booking Robert for any future walks or whenever Diesel misses his friend.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Montclair. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
