“Paola was so reliable and flexible. I had to change my request a few times and each time she responded quickly that it was no issues for her. She arrived exactly as requested and did all the tasks that I asked of her. She texted me when she had a question, which made feel so confident that she was taking everything very serious and didn't want to make a mistake. I will 100% contact her again when I go away.”


About: With a lifetime of experience caring for dogs, cats, birds, turtles, and guinea pigs, I bring a deep understanding and love for animals. From my Eagle Scout project, where I built a heated outdoor cat house and cat walk for an animal sanctuary, and volunteering at the same sanctuary caring for all the animals, to even birthing a dog with 7 puppies, I’ve always gone the extra mile to ensure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I grew up with 4 pit bulls, dobermans, and german shepherds. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority. I am pet first aid certified, a member of Pet Sitters International, AND a certified pet sitter. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. Every morning starts with feeding and checking on my birds, I ensure they have fresh food, clean cages, and some out-of-cage time for flying or play. My evenings include settling all the animals in my care, ensuring their environments are safe and comfortable, and spending quality time with each. Weekly, I focus on cleaning, grooming, and planning for upcoming stays or any special care needs. Pet care is more than a task for me—it’s a rewarding part of my everyday life. When we sit pets, we treat them like part of the family. In our secure, fenced yard, dogs get plenty of playtime and exercise, whether it’s fetch, running around, or simply exploring the space. Our yard is also treated with Vets Best tick/flea spray. I always supervise outdoor time to ensure they’re safe and happy. My goal is to ensure they feel at home while their owners are away, with a mix of outdoor fun, indoor comfort, and plenty of love.

“Lori is so attentive to pets and really cares about their personal needs . She’s genuine and professional . My little guy Sampson misses her already . I know exactly who i am calling for my pet needs from now on ! Thanks again Lori !!”

“Caitlin did an amazing job taking care of our kitty, Tigra. Tigra is very shy, however Caitlin managed to get her out from under the bed, which is a real accomplishment. We received regular updates, pictures and even a video showing Tigra's "adventures". The place was spotless clean when we came back from our trip. Caitlin took good care of everything we had discussed. We are very thankful to Caitlin for caring for our kitty during our absence. I definitely recommend Caitlin to anyone who can't travel with their pets. Thank you, Caitlin for taking care of our Tigra.”


About: I grew up with dogs. I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I love caring for them they’re my favorite animal. I helped my sister when her dog gave birth both times. I do this full time. I am always home. There is a dog park across the street from my house so they can run around if they would like. I have my own bowls, crates and doggy beds. I have lots lots of toys as well so your dog will always comfortable with me.

“My dog Onyx looked forward to his walks and play time with Giselle. She arrived timely and followed instructions well. She came to my home twice a day for two days straight and she was great. She really came through in a pinch! Will use her services again without a doubt!”


About: I happened to work as Sales & Social Media Coordinater for a dog training school a few years back, and that experience changed my whole outlook on how we care for our pets! The dog trainers I created content for taught me about positive reinforcement and reward-based methods in the process. Since moving to a different field I’ve used those skills to handle, walk, and petsit every animal from bearded dragons to cats on the side in a way that’s fun for everyone involved. Animals are my happy place & I’d love to share that joy with your family! I work 9AM to 6:15PM most days, so I am the perfect candidate for your morning and evening walks as well as overnight stays! I can do afternoon Drop-Ins for Essex County residents as well. It’s also no problem for me to house-sit and commute to work from your location. I’m very flexible - please contact me to find a schedule that works for you! I do not offer boarding services in my own home at this time, but I will always make sure I leave my client’s home as I left it when I visit and care for their beloved one 🐾

“Covered us over Christmas. Extremely easy and follows instructions, thorough service. Very grateful to have came across her! She responded immediately when we were looking for a cover. Thank you Samarah!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over eight years and I’ve always stepped in to help friends and family when they travel. Since I was 17 now that I’m turning 32 I have been trusted sitter for multiple families building strong relationships based on reliability and care. I have experience with puppies, including basic training like potty pads sit paw and outdoor bathroom habits, as well as with senior dogs who need extra attention due to health issues. I’m also very patient with timid dogs and love helping them feel safe and comfortable over overtime. More than anything I truly love animals. When their families are away, I do my best to make them feel safe loved and right at home. I work from home and I have a very flexible schedule that I actually make my own schedule at work so I have a lot of time to make sure that if a family needs me for anything important like a walk or just a check in to make sure that the dogs have food and water I can do so. I have more than five years of experience of working with animals in their own homes in the clients homes, and I make sure that I follow every rule and every step that a client does leave for me because I want the dog to have the same routine as if their families have not left for a day or the week. If I do care for an animal at my own house, I do make sure that I still do follow the rules at the families give me and make sure that they feel loved even though they are in a new environment and it might be a little scary for them at first, but I always make sure to make them feel as comfortable as possible with that being taking them around the house, letting them smell around, making sure that they’re comfortable with my things that I have such as furniture if I’m making Food or if I’m cleaning and they don’t feel overwhelmed by noises so I always make sure that I’m watching their behavior and just following their steps.

“Alex was perfect with Jax! She responded quickly to request and setting up dates, handled his anxious pushback when she first came over extremely well and then he was very happy after she left him from both visits. I will absolutely be using her again for my boy!”
