Top rated Netcong house sitters

“Antonia was outstanding! We knew ahead of time our fur babies were in great hands and we were not disappointed. Antonia was in contact with us, sending photos and updating us along the way. Vacation was much more relaxing knowing our dogs were happily in their home being loved on. Such a great find for our family!”


“Ava took wonderful care our very large visually impaired dog who required medication on a very specific schedule. She was in communication with us, sent pictures and was great with him. We will definitely have her back!”


“Jennifer is fantastic! Our dog loves her. She is amazing with him. He looks forward to their walks and waits for her at the door when I say her name. She is also very reliable and provides great communication! She has house sat for us and provided excellent care. We feel lucky to have found her!”


“Heather was a fantastic fit for watching our pup and two cats. She communicated any concerns promptly and it was such a relief to know they were in good hands. I will be using Heather again in the future for any time away!”


“Stephanie has a natural talent for taking care of pets, which makes her an exceptional pet sitter. Stephanie's approach to pet care is characterized by her patience and keen attention to detail. One of Stephanie's standout qualities is her ability to follow specific care instructions meticulously. She ensures that each pet receives the appropriate diet, exercise, and any necessary medical attention. Her observant nature allows her to quickly detect any changes in a pet's behavior or health, ensuring prompt and appropriate action.”

“Michelle clearly loves animals and goes out of her way to take care of them. Our dog was the beneficiary of multiple daily walks, and our cat, a recent rescue got lots of love and attention. Michelle is a good communicator and kept us close to our pets with timely pictures and videos. Michelle went out of her way not only to take care of our pets but to look after our home. She is conscientious and trustworthy and we look forward to engaging her again in the near future. .”


“Sharon is fantastic. She took such great care of Maisy while we were away for a couple of nights. She sent lots of pictures and we could tell our pup was in good hands. Maisy absolutely loved her! We’ll definitely be reaching out again if we need a puppy sitter in the future.”


“Amazing care! We got so many pictures and a few videos throughout the 11 days and Hero was well taken care of. He has a habit of eating things he shouldn't and there was only one minor incident that we were told of right away (and thankfully hasn't caused any issues). We're looking forward to booking them again!”


“Emanuela has been a huge help in our ability to plan for travel this year. Very reliable and responsible, with great communication. I highly recommend her!”


“Jesse was great about house sitting with our two big dogs!!”


“I couldn't be happier with Max walking Nala! He has been an absolute lifesaver for my pup. Not only is he reliable but he also genuinely cares about Nalas well-being. She is always excited for their walks and comes back happy and tired. I love receiving updates and pictures when he watches her. Highly recommend Max to anyone looking for a dog walker!”

“Ashley was fantastic. She was very attentive and kept us in the loop the entire time we were gone. We felt at ease having her stay in our house with our babies. She even was flexible enough to stay an extra night when our plans changed due to a family emergency. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and caring sitter.”


“Ari has cared for my two cats multiple times. While my partner and I go away for weekend, or sometimes week long, vacations, Ari has properly managed feeding, playing, and cleaning up after our cats perfectly while maintaining cleanliness in the home (ex. cleaning up litter or hairballs.) multiple times. In times of emergency, Ari has been perfectly capable of taking our cats to the vet, and I would entrust her to do so. There was one instance where one of our cats got sick (vomiting) but luckily it wasn't a situation where she had to take her over. Still, Ari handled the situation very well. Knowing Ari for about 12 years now, I know she LOVES animals. She was always talking about the dogs, chickens, peacocks, and rabbits on her family's farm. She also used to take care of my late bunny for me on occasion. She's very gentle and empathetic. You absolutely will not be disappointed choosing Ari, especially if you have communicated special requests clearly.”

“I've known Arely for several years. She is a very kind and caring person, who also loves animals. Arely has cared for my dogs many times. I feel Arely will do well being a pet caregiver.”

“Thank you so much Brian for taking care of Archie. Really appreciate you following instructions and looking after him.”


“Dani is probably the biggest dog lover I know! She is amazing with all types of dogs (big or small, young or old)! She has had a dog her entire life and grew up knowing how to care for one. Even now, she has been a huge help in pet-sitting for both her friends and family She will definitely treat your dog as her own!”

“Kamini is a great dog pet caretaker. She has a fenced backyard that gave me comfort. She also has a white Labrador named Pia, who is very playful and welcomed my pet Kuku. Kamini took good care of Kuku and Pia gave good company to Kuku. I was impressed by Kamini’s friendly and yet professional interaction. My dog felt home away from home.”

Lots of play in between outside and walks! I will ensure that any dog I care for will be treated as family as I would want for my dogs!

About: I have grown up with both dogs and cats most of my life. I am currently a dog owner myself, so I am still in the game of being fur mom. I am currently employed full time but am looking for something to do after work. Kids are a little more independent now. I feel like animals especially dogs are such a therapeutic animal, they make your day as soon as you lay eyes on them ( something like a newborn). Just really want to try a new hobby so why not care for animals. my original dream job was to be a vet, however, schooling at the time was not my greatest interest. How i wish i could go back into time. I would love to spend afternoon walks or just have a fur-friend. I also have the most loving, active, funny personality of a cat!. never a dull moment and i wouldnt change it for anything.. Please trust your fur baby would be in care of a loving human I am currently employed, however, I can do an early morning walk, or a long afternoon walk. Either way I'm flexible after the hours of 7-3 I will make sure the pet and the owner are most comfortable so whatever their routine is. I would love to stick by it to the best of my ability. My fur baby has full range to our house, non crated, we either walk or bring him outside into the backyard, he is very good with other dogs, very happy, hyper dog
