“So happy i finally found a sitter i can trust! Super responsible & keeps me updated. My baby is always happy when i pick him up letting me know he’s enjoying the time spent with Jay & Benji.”
5. Neide P.
“We truly live Neida! You can tell she’s very good and experienced with dogs. We picked up dexter after a 9 night stay and he looks happy and healthy! Dexter is not the easiest to sit, but Neida made sure he’s comfortable and understands all his needs (needless to say the daily photo/video updates really made our stay away more enjoyable). I was a little skeptical about dexter being around other dogs especially bigger breeds, but Neida made sure to introduce them properly and they were able to interact friendly! She made us very confident in leaving dexter with her, and we would highly recommend and go back to her again. :D”

7. Stephanie A.
“Stephanie’s amazing! My baby Beau was given so much care and love in those two days I needed to be away. I get so anxious whenever I leave him because we’re so attached to the hip, but now he met his new BFF and I’m glad it was Steph! ❤️ Plus it doesn’t hurt that she’s only a few houses away! Now, whenever Beau and I will take a walk and passes by her house, he would stop and look up her door to see if she’s gonna open up and play with him ❤️? He loves her! I’m definitely gonna be using her services again because I know that my Beau-beau is in good hands with her.”

“I had a last minute trip I had to take and I don’t know anyone in the area. Janice was willing to watch my dog and was very kind and easy to communicate with, helping ease my worry of leaving my dog with someone new. My dog is also very shy and Janice did a great job helping her feel comfortable and come out of her shell. She sent pictures and video updates without me having to ask. She was very accommodating to my flight being delayed and willing to watch my dog 4 hours past the scheduled time. I’d highly recommend her. She’s near Newark airport too so convenient for traveling. Thank you, Janice!😊”
