Pet Sitting Newark

About: Hi! My name is Natalia but I go by Nat. I’ve been caring for dogs for about 7 years and have three dogs of my own. I’ve raised them since they were puppies, so I’m experienced with feedings, walks, playtime, giving lots of attention, and sticking to their routines. I understand every pet has different needs, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away! I treat every pet as my own and will always do my best for them and their owners! I have a flexible schedule and can provide pet care most of the week. I work as a swim instructor on Thursdays from 6:30p.m.-8:15p.m. , and Saturdays from 10:30 a.m.-1:15 a.m., but I’m avaible after and before these hours. I’m happy to accommodate to walks, drop in visits, and pet sitting around my work schedule, and I’ll ensure your pet gets plenty of attention and care! If there is any case of a same day booking, I am sometimes able to take it! Your pets safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll follow all instructions carefully including eating habits/schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special requests. I’ll treat your home with respect and care for your pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while your away.

About: I may be new to professional pet sitting, but I have experience caring for my own dog and understand the importance of providing a safe, loving, and structured environment. I know that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’m committed to following each owner’s instructions carefully. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or simply giving your pet companionship, I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I give my own. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, happy, and confident while you’re away. As a dedicated pet lover, I structure my daily routine around ensuring the dogs in my care receive consistent attention, regular potty breaks, and plenty of mental stimulation. Because my schedule is highly flexible, I can easily adapt to your pup's regular feeding, walking, and nap schedules without disruption. With 8 years of personal experience raising my own dogs—including a Havanese for 6 years and a dachshund, schnauzer mix for 8 years—I am deeply familiar with managing daily feeding routines and bathroom schedules. I provide a safe, reliable environment by sticking strictly to your instructions, keeping a watchful eye on your pet, and maintaining a predictable, stress-free routine while you are away.

About: I've been a devoted pet caregiver for 9 years, caring for cats, rabbits, and hamsters with love and patience. Over the past year, I've also gained hands-on experience raising my own energetic Border Collie, who is now 10 months old and about 44 lbs. Through daily training, walks, playtime, and caring for a high-energy puppy, I've developed a deeper understanding of dogs' physical and emotional needs. I know that every pet has a unique personality. Whether your pet is playful, energetic, shy, or senior, I always provide patient, attentive, and personalized care to help them feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I also enjoy sending detailed daily updates and plenty of photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I'm currently an MBA student and have just completed my first year. During summer break, I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time to your pets. During the school year, my classes are primarily in the evenings, allowing me to continue providing reliable daytime care with minimal scheduling conflicts. Because I currently rent my home, I'm unable to offer boarding services. However, I'd be happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home through drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting. My goal is always to treat every pet as if they were part of my own family. Since my MBA program starts in mid-August and all my classes are in the evenings, I currently have a flexible schedule during the day. This allows me to dedicate ample time to new opportunities, projects, or commitments without scheduling conflicts. I’m available throughout the daytime and can easily adapt to different time zones or urgent tasks while attending evening classes. I currently rent my home and am unable to offer boarding services at my place. However, I am happy to provide loving and attentive pet care by visiting your home for drop-in visits, dog walking, or house sitting. I understand that pets feel most comfortable in their own environment, and I’m dedicated to making sure they receive the care and attention they deserve while you’re away.

“Veronica is amazing sitter! She really demonstrates that she loves animals, extremely responsible and detailed in her check in. I feel so safe to leave my fur babies with her when I’m away!”

“Paula was awesome! Very responsible and communicative. She took care of my cats exactly as I had asked. I will definitely rebook with her again.”

“Lauren did a great job helping us with the care of our cats. She was very responsible and took care of the daily tasks. I hope to book her again in the future.”

“Siqin was a wonderful sitter for my 2 year old border collie. She was very responsive and helped take care of my dog last minute. I would highly recommend booking her and I will definitely rebook her next time we have to travel. I know I can trust my dog to her.”

“We hired Susie to visit twice a day for a week to give Cooper his insulin injections while my husband was away, and she exceeded every expectation. Cooper is diabetic, and Susie is the very first person outside of my husband and me to successfully give him his insulin shots. Before finding Susie, we even had a trial with a vet tech, and it was a complete disaster. After three unsuccessful attempts, I ended up giving the injection myself. With Susie, everything went smoothly from the very first visit. What amazed me most was how quickly Cooper warmed up to her. He usually doesn’t trust new people, but he loved Susie right away and actually looked forward to her twice-daily visits. Seeing how excited he was to see her gave me complete peace of mind. Cooper doesn’t do well with boarding because he truly thinks he’s a person and is happiest at home. Susie made him feel safe, comfortable, and loved, and she cared for him as if he were her own. We’re already looking forward to having Susie dog sit Cooper for a longer stay on our next trip. She’ll definitely be our go-to sitter from now on. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, reliable, and who truly treats your pet like family. The fact that she’s also so confident and capable with insulin injections is an incredible bonus. Thank you, Susie, for taking such wonderful care of our sweet boy! ❤️🐾”

“Myat has done a great job on her drop in visits of my scaredy cat Hidee while I was away for 2 weeks. My cat even came out once while she was there, which is quite unusual. Myat is friendly, considerate and very easy to communicate with. Is very attentive and immediately reaches out to me for possible concerns and is very quick to respond. After each of her visits,I received detailed updates including tasks that were done and photos of them and my cat. I felt at ease with her caring for my cat. Overall a great experience! I highly recommend Myat and will definitely be seeking her services again in the future!”

“Jiaji did an excellent job, caring for my fur babies. She made sure their litter box was always fresh and fed them three times a day with snacks provided also. She sent me pictures of my babies daily along with what services she provided for that day. I will definitely keep her information available for future reference.”

About: Independently managed the care of pets for family and friends for 11 years, including feeding schedules, walks, and grooming routines. Willing to talk more about the care of your fur baby, if there are any concerns. I care for two birds (a Sun Conure and a Green-Cheek Conure) and two dogs (a Chocolate Lab and a Shih Tzu), which means I start my day early to handle their needs. This includes changing bedding, providing scheduled meals, grooming, and engaging them in regular playtime. Whether caring for pets in my own home or a client’s, I prioritize consistency, safety, and individual attention. In my home, I create a structured, pet-friendly environment, while in clients’ homes, I stick closely to their routines and preferences. My goal is to keep pets comfortable, happy, and well-cared for in any setting.

“Emily was so great!!! She did a wonderful job taking care of our dog! Followed instructions very well and met prior to the booking to meet our dog and also gave updates during the visits with photos! Will definitely book again in the future!”

“Hong is delightful. She arrived on time and gained the confidence of my cats right away. She is gentle and patient and was very interested in the cats' routines and habits so that she could build a strong rapport with them as she cares for them in other visits. Excellent!”

Charles S.

“Paige was extremely communicative, reliable and amazing! She sent update pictures for every visit and assured me that my pet bunny Luna was happy, healthy and well cared for. I was worried since most people don't have much experience with bunnies, but Paige asked thorough questions to make sure she cared for Luna in the best way possible. Would extremely recommend her!”

“Nikki cared for my two cats for several days. She was always on time, followed all directions, sent me pictures and even volunteered to roll in my garbage bins.”

About: Dogs make my heart happy, and so do cats! :) I loved the times that I got to spend and care for my beloved Moki who went to heaven in Dec. 2023. I miss her every single day. I work as a substitute teacher and painting instructor, which provides me with a flexible schedule to pursue my hobbies and interests. One of my passions in life is dogs. I volunteer with Pets in Need by participating in their Doggy Day Out program. Back in high school, I was voted Most Dependable, and I believe I still hold that title dear to heart whether it's with family, work, friends, and clients. I would do my best to make sure your furry best friend gets lots of pets, play, and potty breaks. :) My schedule is pretty flexible since I work as a substitute teacher and painting instructor. I can easily block off dates so that I can be available. In the summer time, I also work as a summer camp art counselor. I have updated my schedule with the dates that I’m available. :) I know what it's like to have someone reliable and trustworthy to care for your furry best friend. I know that you can depend on me because I will love and care for your pet as if she/he's my own.

About: We have a maltipoo, Summer, and she is our baby! We love to have friends over for her to have fun with. We’ve grown up with pets and have always loved being around them. It’s been wonderful having fur babies over for the last couple years, puppies to seniors, we love taking care of them! We’ve had great joy with them and each one of them have a special space in our home and heart! We work from home so we’re always there to tend to our fur babies. We walk them around our neighborhood and play with them. We feed them according to their schedule & make sure they eat their own food. We live in a gated community and have a secure backyard where our fur babies can play. If you think your fur baby does better in a crate then you’re more than welcome to bring one so they can be comfortable in it as we do not have any crates. Our baby sleeps in our room and so will yours. Rest assured they’ll be in a very comfortable, happy and we have a pet friendly environment. And they’ll for sure get plenty of cuddles and massages…

About: If your pet needs more than just someone to fill a bowl and open a door — I'm your person. I have years of hands-on experience working in the Critical Care Unit (CCU) at one of the Bay Area's top specialty and emergency veterinary hospitals. Every day, I manage medically complex patients, administer advanced treatments, and monitor critical conditions in a high-acuity environment. This is my professional foundation — not just a hobby. What sets me apart: I bring veterinary-level skill into a calm, home environment. I specialize in senior and hospice pets, pets with medical needs, and anxious pets who don't thrive in traditional boarding. I can confidently administer oral medications, injectable medications, subcutaneous fluids, and inhaled medications — all following your veterinarian's prescribed care plan using medications you provide. My home is intentionally quiet and controlled — no overcrowding, no chaos. I take very limited pets at a time so every animal gets individualized, attentive care. I notice the subtle things: changes in breathing, appetite shifts, stress signals, and comfort levels. Pet care isn't a side gig for me — it's an extension of what I already do professionally. My life revolves around animal care — both professionally and at home. I intentionally structure my schedule so that every pet in my care gets consistent routines, timely medications, regular potty breaks, and attentive monitoring throughout the day and night. I don't overbook. Your pet is never an afterthought — they're my priority. In my home: My home is intentionally set up to be calm, quiet, and controlled. I take very limited pets at a time — no overcrowding, no chaotic energy. Your pet gets consistent daily routines (feeding, potty breaks, rest, and activity), attentive monitoring throughout the day and night, and safe, supervised backyard access. I maintain a predictable environment so your pet can settle in and feel secure — not overwhelmed. In your home: When I care for pets in the client's home, I follow your pet's existing routines as closely as possible. I keep everything familiar — same feeding schedule, same potty routine, same sleeping spots. I provide updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. For medical visits, I arrive on time, administer medications or treatments per your veterinarian's instructions, and make sure your pet is comfortable before I leave. For all pets in my care: I monitor for subtle changes in behavior, appetite, energy, and comfort. I administer medications (oral, injectable, inhaled) and subcutaneous fluids as prescribed by your vet. I never rush. I never overbook. Every pet gets my full attention and genuine care.
