House Sitting in Montclair

“Ileana has been an incredible caretaker for my dogs. She has taken great care of them, keeping me updated regularly, following instructions diligently, and even going above and beyond by taking initiative in looking after Freud and Bella. They have already developed a great bond with her, and I can tell they miss her in her absence.”

About: I’m a 50 year old dog lover who grew up on a farm, where caring for animals became second nature. I’ve had large and small dogs, horses, cows, and chickens. I’m an actor with a very flexible schedule. I also have teen boy helpers who love animals. I am able to move things around as needed. I will maintain your pet’s routine and environment, ensuring they feel secure and comfortable. I provide regular photos and updates so you can enjoy your time away. With decades of experience, you can trust that both your beloved companion and your home are in caring, responsible hands.

“Degan was wonderful house sitting for us and watching after our two cats for over 2 weeks. She was very communicative and thoughtful and we're so glad we chose her. We'd definitely have her watch our cats again in the future if we're out of town.”

“Gabriela was amazing! She took care of our pets which not just include dogs but also a bunny and some farm animals! She was great about sending pictures and staying in touch with updates so that we felt comfortable the entire time we were away. I would recommend her 100%!”

“Eldar was a wonderful housesitter and companion for my silly old pup. I came home from a week of vacation to a very happy and relaxed dog and a spotless and comfortable home. He was kind and responsive to questions and arrangements, and kept in touch with me about how he and the canine were getting on. I was very impressed and appreciative - what a gift it is to be on vacation with absolutely no worries or concerns! Bonus points also for his patience and grace during some unexpected house repairs. Eldar is great and I will absolutely use him again!”

“Michelle was great with Piper! She took her on walks and gave her TLC while I was out of town. I will definitely book her again. Loved all the photo updates too. Thank you!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for my own three dogs, two 10-year-olds and a 4-year-old—and regularly care for my sister’s dogs (ages 4 and 2). I also help a friend with her senior dog, who is 14. I walk my dogs daily and often dog sit and house sit for my sister, so I’m very familiar with different ages, energy levels, and routines. Whether it’s giving extra love to older dogs or keeping younger ones active and entertained, I treat every pup like family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I mostly work from home and have plenty of flexibility throughout the day. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening walks or drop-ins. I only go into the office 1–2 times a month, so I’m able to provide consistent care and attention for pets throughout the week. When caring for pets in their home, I prioritize keeping them comfortable by maintaining their routines and staying in their familiar environment. I stay overnight at my friend’s apartment whenever I care for her senior dog to ensure she feels safe and secure, and I always stay at my sister’s house when dog sitting her two dogs. I follow feeding, walking, and medication schedules closely, and I always respect the home and preferences of each pet parent. I also provide regular photo updates and clear communication throughout the stay so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to be a calm, consistent, and loving presence so your pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away.

“Lexi was amazing. She followed our directions perfectly. Our baby Poppy instantly clicked with her and that made us feel very relaxed. Lexi’s flourish of pictures, updates and attention to detail in her recap itinerary were everything to me and we can’t wait to have her sit with us again.”

About: I have a diverse pet care background and a genuine passion for animals of all kinds. I care for my own dog with special needs, which has given me hands-on experience providing specialized care, administering medication, and being attentive to unique health and behavior requirements. In addition to dogs, I’ve cared for birds, fish, reptiles, and cats, giving me a well-rounded understanding of different species and their specific needs. Whether it’s walking a high-energy pup, feeding a picky cat, or maintaining the proper habitat for a reptile, I’m confident, capable, and always put the pet’s well-being first. I work full-time in customer service, but my schedule is very relaxed and flexible, allowing me time in the middle of my shifts for pet care. I typically have Wednesdays and Thursdays off, which gives me even more availability during the week. I’m able to plan around visits, walks, and check-ins with ease, ensuring your pet gets the attention and care they need, even on busy days. I provide detailed and attentive care tailored to each pet’s unique needs, whether in my home or a client’s. I prioritize safety by following routines closely, keeping environments clean and secure, and monitoring pets for any changes in behavior or health. I take time to build trust with each animal, ensuring they feel comfortable and cared for. Whether it’s sticking to a feeding schedule, administering medication, or simply giving them love and attention, I treat every pet like they’re my own.

About: Hi! I'm Carlos. I completed a veterinary preparatory program from December to April 2025 and have been working at a veterinary hospital since earning my Bachelor of Science degree in 2023. With both academic and hands-on experience in animal care, I’m confident in my ability to provide excellent care for your pet. I'm reliable, attentive, and committed to making sure your furry family member feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care is my top priority right now. I recently completed a veterinary preparatory course and am currently available full-time. This means I have the flexibility to accommodate a wide range of schedules, including last-minute requests, extended stays, or daily walks. Your pet will get my full attention and care throughout the day. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort to ensure your pet feels at ease—whether in my home or yours. Safety First: I pet-proof spaces, secure all doors/gates, and remain vigilant during walks or playtime. I always keep a pet first-aid kit nearby and know where the nearest vet is, just in case. Building Trust: I get to know your pet gently and follow their usual routine for meals, walks, and play. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how they’re doing. Comfortable Environment: I create a calm, clean space with cozy bedding, access to their toys, and anything familiar that helps them relax. With my veterinary training and full-time availability, I’m dedicated to making your pet feel safe, happy, and loved.

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.

“Kat took good care of our two dogs as well as our home. She checked in with me a few times and sent photos. We have one dog with congestive heart failure that requires her to take medication 2 x day. Kat was able to administer the medication as necessary.”

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. 🐾🏡💕

“Megan is THE BEST. We left our Zoey, a 3 year old Sheepadoodle for the first time. Megan stayed at our home for a week. She sent pictures every day, and it was obvious that Zoey loved her. Our home was immaculate when we returned. I will contact Megan again and again.”
