Thanks to Laura, we were able to enjoy a much needed weekend away from our elderly yorkie and two finicky cats. Our trip was last minute and plans changed but Laura was very accommodating and adaptable! Highly recommend her and will definitely call her again!

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.

I can't recommend Grayson enough. She was highly attentive and sent lots of pictures and updates. You can tell she really loves animals. I felt at ease leaving my boys with her for a few days and look forward to using her services again. She came by to meet them before staying here, and I just really appreciated her overall thoroughness!

There are not enough stars to leave this review. Taking a 17 day vacation, we asked a lot of our Dog Sitter/House Sitter. Sharon went above and beyond sending daily pictures & updates. Upon our return garbage cans had been emptied and the bed stripped and bedding was washed. We have already recommended Sharon to our neighbor who is Boarding her dog for vacation.

I have known Jesse for 8 years at this point. When we met, the first thing I learned about her was her incomparable love for pets, especially her dog Tucker. Shortly after meeting Jesse, I rescued a dog with severe separation anxiety and was extremely uneasy around others. Jesse was an exception to that. He could sense her loving personality and was one of the few people who he felt comfortable with. As a dog parent, that made me extremely happy. She has an amazing spirit that animals can sense and is extremely dependable. Your pets will be so happy you chose her!

Jill is an amazing dog sitter. She kept my family and I updated the whole time we were away from the house. She strides to ensure my pet Dakota was comfortable and well taken care of and can’t wait to have her over again in a few days. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Dakota. I highly recommend.

About: I grew up with Labs, German Shepherds and Pekingese along with other breeds and have always felt a special bond with dogs. I volunteered at the West Milford Animal Shelter when I was younger as well. I love to walk sometimes I walk up to 7 miles after a long day so I thought it would be good to help walk some dogs as well! I work full time 8-4:30 and have a fur baby of my own so weekends are best for me but I can work with some later walks if needed I will care for all fur babies as if they were my own. I will make them feel comfortable loved and cared for while watching.

My family has worked with Alissa with two of our dogs for twelve years. She is highly reliable, trust worthy and kind. I wouldn’t consider anyone else taking care of our dogs, but her. When we are away, Alisa will check in with you and give you current updates on your dog. She loves what she does and Bonnie absolutely adores her!

Selia Fried is a trusted and hardworking volunteer at the WMASS. She has been a volunteer since October 2014 and has demonstrated leadership by training new volunteers and following up on her and others' areas to assure all medical and physical needs of those in her care have been met. She has physically labored to clean and maintain the wellness of animals. Selia has fostered bottle fed kitten litters successfully attending to all newborn needs, until they were old enough to reenter the shelter for adopting families. She has also fostered a young dog who had had surgery until she was well enough to return. The dog was well socialized and has been adopted as well. We are grateful for her ongoing care, dedication and responsibility to the animals at the West Milford Animal Shelter. I confidently recommend Selia as a pet sitter. Sincerely, Janice Perry, Senior Volunteer and former WMASS Vice President
