House Sitting in Newark

“We are so pleased with the experience we had with Chelsea. She was great about keeping us informed about how our pups were doing. She texted us and sent us pictures every day while we were out of town. We would definitely recommend Chelsea for anyone looking for someone to care for their pups.”

“Great choice! She was very accommodating when our schedule changed, left the house clean and Frenchie seemed to really like her. Would do it again 💯”

“Charles was very active with our pups while house sitting! He took them on walks and sent us pictures and updates every day! Would definitely recommend!”

Carly M.

“John was on time. He was very kind. He and our sweet Savannah bonded and has a great weekend. He completed walks and feedings. He assisted with her vitamin. We will plan to use him again and would highly recommend him.”

“Kaitlyn did a good job with our boy Zeus, our overactive 2yr old Doberman! We would recommend her service for pet sitting!”

About: I grew up with cats but now have a golden retriever named Molly. I know just how special pets are and will treat yours like my own! You can find us walking the boardwalk in the off season or at the dog park in the summer. For dog walking requests, if your dog is friendly and gets along with other dogs let me know if you’d like me to bring her along! I am an elementary teacher in Salisbury, MD. I’m available to provide services week nights, and weekends. I’m happy to do a fast paced walk to get your dogs energy out! I have vast experience with different dog breeds and cats. I’m very detail oriented and provide thorough reports! I’m available for walks, sits or drop ins. I’m comfortable giving medicine and helping dogs/cats of all ages.

About: I have volunteered at shelters, fostered dogs, and have been taking care of our family pup for years! I am a responsible, mature, and orgnaized young adult trying to make some money while out of college for the summer! I have a very flexible schedule. I am available almost everyday at whatever time needed! I am also willing to travel to take care of your pets! I have so much love to give to your fur babies! I am gentle and kind to all dogs regardless of age, accidents, or behavior issues.

About: I’ve had dogs and have been taking care of family and friends dogs and cats for over 10 years. My family has had healthy dogs and dogs that have had medical issues over the years, and so I’m knowledgeable in looking after a dog who has undergone surgery, or who requires special care due to paralyzation. I love all animals and friends have relied on me to house sit their dogs while they go away on trips or vacations for multiple days at a time, sometimes with more than one dog at a time, or additional pets as well, so I’m very experienced in addressing each animals needs, while also sending “daily nanny cam” updates to family and friends so they can see their pets during the day and know that they’re happy and doing well. I work full time, but work from home two out of the five days, so I would be able to take your dog on multiple walks during the day, come over and stay with them for a few hours to play, or even house sit them for the day or several days if you’re going away for a trip. If they require special medication I just ask that you leave me their vitamin/mediation schedule and will administer based on your instructions. My family dog loves to cuddle with me in my lap and when she’s not allowed on the furniture, I’ll often sit on the floor with her so that she can snuggle with me. On the days that I work from home, I would be happy to stay at your home with your pets making sure their needs are met. I love my family pets and will give your pets the same love and affection that I give mine. My animals are allowed to snuggle with me on the couch or on the bed (unless you don’t want them on the furniture/ there are behavioral issues I need to be aware of, I would have them do the same thing). I walk my family dog in the afternoons and play with her throughout the day with dog toys and fetch, but will monitor if it looks like the toy is coming apart and could pose a risk to them. I would follow all instructions left when it comes to house sitting/walks/or day sitting, and would ask for you to share any behavioral issues or triggers with me in advance so I care be aware of them prior to taking your pets out on walks or just in day to day interactions. This allows me to be aware for your pets safety and the safety of any other animals we could come around. If a dog doesn’t seem friendly while we’re on a walk, I would remove your dog from that situation to try and keep them as safe as possible. I will also always reach out to contact you if there are any issues or questions I have about daily activities, medications, etc. When I dog sit at someone’s home, I recognize that I am really there just to look after their pet, so I don’t leave the house for extended periods of time and will actually put on animal shows for the pets to watch, including planet earth, or Disney pet movies. I also like to send updates that I called “nanny cams”, which are photos or videos of your pet playing or just hanging about so that you can have peace of mind that they’re happy and you can also see them while you’re away and receive updates. I will always communicate with you very openly to ensure you have peace of mind while I’m taking care of your pet.

“Tara was wonderful, thoughtful, and mostly a dog lover. Aubee was well cared for. We appreciate her and would highly recommend her.”

“Jordyn did a wonderful job puppysitting our two furbabies! She kept me up to date and answered in timely manner. From the minute we met, I could tell how loving and caring she would be. I would recommend her to anyone who needs help with boarding and/or other pet needs.”

Skyler B.

“100% recommend Rayven. She watched our dog in our home for several nights while we were on vacation which included administering multiple medications (pills, eye drops several times a day). She updated us daily with photos and even took special care of his paws when she noticed they were irritated by allergies. She went above and beyond! Will definitely book with Rayven again.”

Annie B.

“Catie is awesome! She asked great questions at our meet and greet and was very able to deal with my very big dogs. Catie asked us in advance how often we wanted to hear from her and then sent us daily photos. She is very responsible and took good care of our house and pets. I’d highly recommend her.”

About: Do you ever hear someone say they have been caring for animals their entire life? Well for me, that’s actually true .My family has a boarding kennel that was opened the year after I was born; and it’s where I’ve spent a lot of my life. Additionally, with many years of vet tech experience and a natural passion for caring for animals, I also have a knack for picking up on illnesses. Treating your animals like my own is my biggest goal, and I will do whatever is necessary to make them happy. Very comfortable giving medicine, including insulin or other injectable medications. Animals are a passion of mine and my years of experience allow me to be knowledgeable on many different aspects of pet care. I work full time but I my schedule is pretty flexible, and can be managed to fit your pets needs. I can provide windows for drop in visits. My pet sitting services are tailored to fit your pets needs. I can walk dogs or let them out in a fenced in back yard. They are never left unsupervised while outside and prefer to use a leash if you do not have a fenced in backyard.

“Hanna was great. She took great care of my older dog. I highly recommend her.”

About: Hey there! A little bit about me - I grew up in a dog loving household so I’ve been taking care of, loving, and playing with furry friends my whole life. After moving to the city away from my own, I decided to get into Wag to still be around animals and help pay the bills! I have experience in all things from long walks to short ones, big dogs to small dogs, feeding, playing, pottying, all of the above. I’d love to get to know your pup whenever you need an extra hand! I tend to have a pretty flexible schedule!! I will always try to find space in my day and week to help care for your pup. I’m new to the River scene in NYC but have been successfully walking dogs on another pet care app for over a year!! (50 services to be exact). Mainly a lot of walks ranging from short to long and a few drop in visits. I am unable to host dogs in my apartment building, but will happily do an overnight stay at someone’s home if that’s what you all need!

About: Hello there! My name is Shannon O'Neill, and I am a passionate animal lover and dedicated pet owner based in Berlin, MD. I have had the utmost joy engaging in pet care for over the past ten years, and have a variety of experience with several types of breeds and dispositions. Providing a safe and loving experience for the dogs I work with is my highest priority, and I strive to go above and beyond for all of my clients. Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine, as I prioritize the well-being of the pets I walk and care for. I schedule dedicated time each day to ensure that each pet receives the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. Depending on the specific needs of the pet, I also adapt my routine to accommodate special care, such as administering medication, providing additional playtime, or catering to any dietary requirements. My goal is to provide a consistent and loving experience for each pet, ensuring they are happy, healthy, and well-cared for throughout the week. I provide personalized care based on the pet's needs, whether in my home or a client's. This includes regular feeding, exercise, playtime, and administering medications if needed. I ensure pets have a safe and comfortable environment, and I follow any specific instructions from pet owners to maintain their routines.
