Dog Sitting Montclair

About: I grew up with lots of animals that always needed extra care and love. I also have taken care of seniors that need extra attention, patience, and medication. I just recently graduated cosmetology school so I’m taking time off in the mean time to explore other areas. I have open availability so my focus can be on your fur babies I keep plenty of toys and litter boxes around the home. I keep evening tidy and clean for my animals. I like to meet the animal first to make sure it’ll be a good fit and to ensure I am capable of taking care of them

About: I have a wide range of experience caring for pets, including cats, puppies and elderly dogs with medical needs. In addition to providing day-to-day care like walks and drop-ins, I have experience with long-term housesitting. I prioritize communication with my clients and love sending photos and updates so you can be sure your loved one is well cared for! I’m currently taking classes online and volunteering at a shelter every so often, so I’m fully free anytime with enough notice! I aim to get out and walk as much as possible, I’d be happy to take your puppy along with me. Your pets comfort and safety is my number one priority, I will make sure they are cared for and loved like they were my own.

About: I am a 25 year old who has grown up with dogs and cats since childhood, from their young stages to their senior years. I have always had a soft spot for animals and have prior experience dog walking as well as pet sitting for both dogs and cats! As a current pet owner of a 13 year old cat, I am eager to care for your pets as my own!! I am currently working M-F as a Behavioral Technician, so my weekday availability is anytime before 9am and anytime after 6pm. My schedule changes on occasion depending on client needs, so if I am ever available for last minute pet visits during afternoon hours, I will not hesitate to reach out. I have open availability on weekends as well as most holidays. If I am ever going to be unavailable due to traveling, I will let you know at least 1-3 months in advance! I will be sure to always greet your fur baby/babies with a warm, loving welcome and ensure they feel safe and comfortable in my care by attending to their needs!

“Lohan did an amazing job taking care of Tracy and Lola! He stepped in last minute and went above and beyond to make sure they were well cared for. He exceeded my expectations, was kind, dependable, and gave me peace of mind while I was away. I will definitely book his services again the next time I need someone to care for my pets. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi! I’m Gaby, a lifelong dog lover with a background in Animal Science and hands-on experience working with animals. In addition to being a dog owner myself, I’ve volunteered at a local animal shelter, where I’ve cared for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. These experiences have taught me how to be patient, attentive, and compassionate while ensuring every dog feels safe and comfortable. I understand that every dog is unique, so I take the time to learn their routine, walking style, and preferences. Whether your pup enjoys an energetic adventure, a relaxing stroll, or plenty of time to sniff and explore, I’ll make sure they have a fun and enriching experience. As a pet parent, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog. I’ll treat your furry family member as if they were my own and keep you updated with photos and messages after every walk so you can have complete peace of mind. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and genuinely passionate about animal care. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I am currently working full time. My work environment is hybrid, so I’m mostly working from home. My schedule is flexible and I’m available for weekday walks, with availability during late mornings, afternoons, and early evenings. I’m happy to work with your dog’s routine and find a schedule that works best for both of us. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for your pet. I treat every dog as if they were my own and always take the time to understand their routine, personality, comfort level, and any specific instructions from their family. During walks, I focus on keeping your dog safe by using proper leash handling, being aware of our surroundings, and following any preferences you have regarding routes, pace, and interactions with other dogs or people. When entering your home, I will always be respectful of your space and follow your instructions carefully. I understand that trusting someone with your pet and your home is a big responsibility, and I will provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care every time.

“My first time in getting a cat sitter online but was highly recommended to use Rover. No regrets! Radyah was so good and flexible on watching the Miss kitty around the holidays. I would recommend her in a heart beat!”

“Cathy took wonderful care of my cat, Sky, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the very beginning, Sky made a great connection with her and was incredibly affectionate, which says so much about the care and warmth she provides. She truly went above and beyond, giving Sky extra love and attention and making sure he felt comfortable and happy at all times. Cathy was kind, helpful, supportive, and very proactive, always keeping me updated and anticipating anything Sky might need. She was also extremely responsive and easy to reach, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I would absolutely trust Cathy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. If Sky could type, he’d probably give her 5 paws and a head boop 🐾😄”

About: I provide dependable, personalized care by treating every pet like family. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine and personality, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, and pets with special routines, and I always provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I work part-time as a virtual therapist, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent attention, walks, playtime, and personalized care. I make sure every pet receives the time, care, and updates they deserve while their owners are away. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they receive fresh water, meals on schedule, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I also keep their environment clean, follow any special care instructions, and provide regular updates with photos so owners know their pet is happy and well cared for.

“She’s very easy to work with and fantastic with our dogs! A real gem!”

About: I've taken care of dogs for years. I have my own dog and have also pet sat overnight for 3-8 days for family friends. I've also had cats and experience caring for those. I'm currently an undergraduate student in DC. I'm available most afternoons and evenings during the week, and very flexible on weekends. I can do overnight stays in the Northern VA area as well. I offer house sitting and drop‑in visits in your home to keep your pet comfortable in their normal environment. In your home, I follow your pet’s usual schedule for meals, walks, and play. I take home safety seriously, keeping doors and gates secure, supervising outdoor time, and treating your space with the same care as my own. Before any stay, I review your written instructions and ask questions, then send regular photo updates so you can relax while you’re away.

About: Hello! My name is John Paul (JP) for short. I turned 18 a couple months ago and I’m available for pet sitting! I have been doing pet sitting for about 6 years now and I love it. I’ve had 3 dogs, 2 cats, and over 5 baby parrots I’ve raised on own when I was younger and I like to think I had/have a very good relationship with them. I love all sorts of animals and love getting to spend time and interact with them. We’ll because I’m still in school, I stay at home with my parents but I have 2 cats that I feed, clean litter boxes, and spend time and play with daily. In my clients home I would obviously respect their space and not let the pets in anywhere they cannot go. If they have a fenced backyard and allow it, I would let them out and play with them. If they have a cat I would try my best to just spend time with them and play if they want to!

“We used Daisy in a pinch for a dropin visit and she gladly accepted. We're lucky to have someone close by that you can easily tell loves her own pups as much as anyone, definitely recommend!”

About: I do consultations with every client about times, flexible pay, additional services. I can train your dog to do the basic things like sit, stay, go in their cage. If i cant I'll let you know i can't. I can bathe dogs, nails, teeth and ear cleaning and trim up feet. Depending on how long your dog is staying, there will be a bathing fee. I do accept cats but will not groom them. I will ask you what your pet likes and doesnt like, how they are with other animals, any medications or allergies i need to know about, etc. I am very flexible when it comes to almost anything whether its price, drop off/pick up times, special needs, any questions or concerns just ask. I work but someone is usually always home for playtime ,mealtime , and bathroom time. Every pet has free roam of the house and will only be crated if need be Every pet gets fed at least twice a day , playtime , bathing /nail grinding if asked. This should feel like their second home to come to I have a dog as well (Lyla) every pet baby I’ve cared for is treated as they are my own. We go for morning walks / sometimes runs , playtime . There is a dog park in my neighborhood. I care for them the same I would my own. We have multiple walks and playtime during the day, medicine is administered when needed. Extra potty breaks if needed, training with treats, down time. I make them feel as if this were their 2nd home
