Dog Walking In North Ironbound

About: Hello, I’m a 27 year old who has loved animals their entire life. Currently I don’t have any pets but while I was younger my family always had animals in the house. I’ve had the pleasure of growing up around dogs and cats. When I moved away from home I started pet sitting for family friends and neighbors. I have pet sat cats, dogs, even a parrot and a snake. I love caring for other people's pets and understand the love and care that is expected when taking on this job. Caring for animals is one of my favorite past times. I currently freelance so my availably is extremely open. That also means your pet will get my full attention for any care they need. I work from home so I will have ample time to care for the pets. I also live walking distance from a park so walks will not be a problem. I don't currently have pets but the way I would care for pets in my home is by paying as much attention as I can to them. Making sure they are well fed, comfortable and relaxed.

“Renee was excellent while walking Bailey. She’s attentive and prioritizes safety and she’s very knowledgeable of best practices for handling pets with care.”

About: I have taken care of neighbors and friends’ dogs since I was in high school, either looking after them while my friend was away or taking them for a walk. I have also recently gotten a cat and have been trying to become a cat whisperer now! I am a medical student with lots of free time right now! Can pickup last-minute gigs and tend to your buddy whenever and wherever. I live in an apartment with my beautiful rescue cat and have a car to travel to get to your pet in need! Very flexible on timing and task.

About: I have cared for other people's dogs--roommates, friends, neighbors--since childhood, many decades! I've lived with cats, dogs and birds. I said goodbye to my rescue Westie of almost 17 years during 2025, and I’m not ready for another long-term pet commitment yet. I puppy trained her (with trainer) from 4 months and provided senior care for the last few years. I am very patient when meeting new animal souls, allowing them to come to me when they’re ready. I have been taking shelter dogs on Afternoon Adventures and have been successful with helping to train dogs in my care. I am working part time and have a flexible schedule, and now that I'm pet-less, I am available, even on short notice. I have been going on walks/hikes in our beautiful parks (over 2 miles) and would prefer some four-legged company. I am very good at following your instructions, respectful of routines and choices you make, and sensitive to furry companions' needs. I'll send you lots of pics! I will board low-maintenance/energy pets in my home, not puppies or kittens.

“My dog walker has been fantastic! Always on time, very reliable, and a great communicator. He was very good with my senior pup spikey :). I appreciate the consistent and professional service. Highly recommend him!”

About: Hi, I’m Aria✨ I’m a JC local who enjoys long walks at the park (with your dog). My love for animals started when I volunteered to dog-walk and help find dogs a home at an SPCA in Charleston, SC for 3 yrs. Since then, I’ve been taking care of my family, friends, and neighbors dogs :) I’ll only confirm a dog-walk and dog sitting shift if I’m working from home and can guarantee I can be present with your fur baby •Affection (dogs love company that make them feel comfortable and loved). I’m always sure to make them feel seen and cared for. It can be tough on them being away from their caregiver. So affection goes a long way. •Making sure they’re fed & hydrated (always attending them according to their usual/specific routine).

About: With over 10 years of pet care experience, I have nurtured a deep understanding of the unique needs and behaviors of various animals. From dogs and cats to birds, etc. I've provided compassionate care, ensuring their well-being and happiness. My experience encompasses everything from basic feeding and walking routines and playing. I prioritize building strong bonds with pets and their owners, fostering trust and confidence in my abilities to provide exceptional care. My schedule for pet sitting is quite flexible and can be tailored to meet your needs. Generally, I am available after 3:00pm from Monday-Friday and available all day on Saturdays and Sundays. However, I recommend contacting me with specific dates and times you require pet sitting services, so we can discuss availability and ensure I can accommodate your schedule accordingly. Additionally, I am open to overnight stays and extended periods of care if necessary. Whether caring for pets in my own home or at a client's home, my approach remains centered on providing the highest level of comfort, safety, and companionship for the animals entrusted to my care. I have three dogs (two small poodles and one medium sized golden doodle) as well as (two cats).

“My pup is still getting used to unfamiliar people walking him outside. Rachel’s shown a lot of patience as they get to know each other more and he’s warming up little by little. I’m so glad I found her to help out.”

About: As a devoted dog enthusiast, I have accumulated over two decades of expertise in pet care and have been a dog owner for 25 years. My two English cocker spaniels hold a special place in my heart, making them my absolute world, alongside my spaniel before my current two that I had for 17 years, who passed away in 2019. Spaniels hold a special place in my heart. As a remote worker with a highly flexible schedule, I am able to be present with the puppies and dogs regardless of whether it is a weekend or a weekday. Residing in a two-story townhouse, I do not have a backyard, but I do have three balconies. Additionally, there is a park located nearby. I also have two English cocker spaniels, who are siblings, named Parker and Riley. They are friendly and calm after the initial few minutes. Parker and Riley are both six years old, and my husband and I ensure their well-being by keeping them well-groomed. We consistently monitor their eyes, perform regular teeth brushing, and ensure that their paws and nails are in optimal condition.

“Emily was great with my dog Emmy! Emily is trustworthy, which makes leaving Emmy easier. Emmy loves being able to spend time with someone throughout the day and it is clear that Emily loves animals.”

“I booked Frankie to walk my Pitbull today and had a great experience. What really stood out to me right away was that, unlike other dog walkers, he didn’t ask to meet my dog beforehand or question his behavior. That gave me the impression that he’s confident in his skills and comfortable handling larger dogs of any temperament. My dog is very strong and Frankie handled him with no issues at all. He was on time, extremely friendly, and very communicative throughout the walk. I also appreciated the pictures he sent, which gave me peace of mind. I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”
