Elizabeth is the absolute best. She took such good care of my two dogs. I appreciated all the updates throughout her time with them. We will definitely have her take care of the pups again!

Lauren did a fantastic job. She was wonderful with my dog and took her on many walks. She went above and beyond when my cats knocked over a plant and the pot broke. Thanks Lauren

Jordyn did a great job caring for my westie in my home while I was away for a week. She sent updates and pictures. He was well cared for. When I returned home, Jordyn made sure everything was in perfect order! Linus misses her already! We’ll be calling Jordyn again! I highly recommend her!

This is the second time Dani has taken care of Vinny. She kept me up-to-date while I was away on how he was doing each day and sent me plenty of pictures and videos. She kept my house spotless and when I came home everything was exactly where I left it. You can definitely trust her in your home and with your fur baby.

We could not be more grateful for Raechel’s flexibility and communication the last week as we navigated finding pet care for a last-minute funeral. We returned home to a spotless house and happy, well cared for pets - with the TV turned on to one of their favorite programs, a detail that made us so happy. We will absolutely be booking with Raechel again!

About: As a true dog lover, I understand that dogs need love, patience, and attention—especially when their owners are away. I know accidents and little messes can happen, and I approach them with patience and understanding. I truly empathize with how stressful separation can feel for pets, which is why I focus on making them feel safe, comforted, and cared for. I also understand how important peace of mind is for owners, and I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. I’m currently a full-time master’s student with a flexible schedule, allowing me availability for dog walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week. I currently provide care in my client’s home and always try to follow your pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and safe. I understand dogs need love, attention, patience, and reassurance—especially when their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or companionship, I’ll care for your pet with kindness and patience while giving you peace of mind.

About: I’m a professional dog groomer with 6 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My background has taught me patience, gentle handling, attention to detail, and how to make pets feel safe and comfortable in new environments. I’m skilled at reading dog behavior, maintaining calm energy, and providing attentive, reliable care. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, walks, grooming needs, or simply giving extra affection and reassurance, I treat every dog like family and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine because I work part time as a professional dog groomer and have 6 years of hands-on experience caring for animals. I spend my days working closely with pets, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Outside of grooming, I enjoy continuing that same level of attention through pet sitting by providing walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and personalized care. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and it fits easily into my weekly routine because working with pets has always been a big part of my life. I would care for pets in their home by maintaining their normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and giving plenty of attention and affection. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment while keeping the home clean, secure, and following all owner instructions carefully.

Bryan was fabulous. He stayed at our house and watched 2 old cats and a dog that needs daily medication. He communicated very well before the stay so he knew what to do and touched base repeatedly while we were gone with pictures and updates of our animals. We came back to a well cared for house and very happy animals. I will absolutely be booking him again and encourage others to do so as well!

About: I have been proud to be a shih tzu owner for 3 years with my family. I have also been pet sitting and walking since I was 12 I walk and feed my dog on a daily basis. I also play with him during my free time and weather permitting, take him to the dog park I currently live in an apartment while occasionally staying at my parents house. I make sure to give them the care they need and show them how much they are loved.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 7 years old. I love all animals and enjoy spending time with my furry friends. My mom likes to say I’m somewhat of a dog whisperer😂 I am home for the summer and available everyday. I work at the Florham Park Day-camp throughout the week. Hours are: 8:00 am - 3:00 pm I love to go on long walks with my own dog Ollie. Along with keeping well fed and happy. Im sure he would enjoy some company on his walks! Im prepared to care for any of your pet’s needs.

Valeria (Val) stepped in last minute for a 3-night overnight stay and was fantastic. She was communicative, flexible and sent daily photo updates, which provided peace of mind. She handled all morning and night walks, followed all care instructions, kept everything clean (water bowls filled, litter box scooped, home tidy), and clearly cared for my pets like her own. Reliable, responsive and easy to work with; I would book again.

About: I have had pets since I was a kid and have also pet sit for family and friends. I have had both dogs and cats through my life, so I know how to take care of each. I work full time Monday-Friday, but do have flexibility to come let out a dog once per day if needed. I do not work on weekends, so I have availability as needed. I will follow all directions given, and will make sure to keep your pets safe and comfortable throughout the time I am watching them. I have experience with sitting both cats and dogs.

About: Caring for animals has always been something that comes naturally to me. I’ve spent years around dogs and other pets, helping friends, family, and neighbors with walking, feeding, playtime, and overnight care. I’m comfortable working with dogs and any animal of different sizes, ages, and temperaments, from energetic puppies that need lots of exercise to older dogs that prefer slower walks and extra care. I always focus on creating a calm, safe, and positive environment so pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. Currently work part time at nights and weekends predominantly so I have morning/daytime availablility during the week while you are at work! Can also do overnights any day of the week. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I always follow each pet’s routine, care instructions, and any special needs provided by the owner to make sure they feel secure and well cared for. I maintain a calm, clean, and safe environment where pets can relax and feel at home. Whether it’s during a walk, a drop in visit, or extended care, I always keep a close eye on pets and make sure they are safe, comfortable, and happy at all times. I’m attentive to behavior, body language, and any changes in mood or energy so I can respond quickly if something seems off. I also make sure pets have fresh water, proper feeding, plenty of exercise or playtime, and lots of affection. Communication is very important to me, so I provide updates, photos, and messages to keep owners informed and reassured while they’re away. My goal is to create a safe, trustworthy experience where both pets and their owners feel completely at ease.
