This is my first time looking for a dog walker and I stumbled on Noelle's profile and have no regrets choosing Noelle to walk and care for my dog.

11. Tammy C.
About: Since the day i was born i have had a small zoo in my home. Over the years i have had pets such as cats, dogs, birds, fish, reptiles and small animals. I absolutely love caring for my animals and it means the world to me to see them healthy and living their best lives! I currently have a 70+ lb pitbull of my own and spend alot of my free time volunteering at an Animal shelter in NJ. Most of that time is spent walking large (sometimes reactive) dogs, so large breeds and strong pullers are not a problem! I am available for drop ins and walks Monday- Friday (and certain weekends). As long as i do not already have a booking, i am usually available too help my fellow animal lovers with their pet care needs! I never leave animals unattended outside ( including fenced in yards). I also assure that all food and treats being offered are approved by the pet parents which i am working with. I also am very careful about keeping dangerous/toxic household items and plants far out of reach of any animals!


12. Oleg Z.

“Oleg was fast in replying my messages. I appreciate that he could walk Santa the same day! She needs at least one hour walking and she came back home tired and hungry, just the way i need, so i can peacefully leave her home sleeping while im out. Thank you Oleg! Will be booking with you again 🤍”


13. Koswattage Sahani P.
“Sahani is the sweetest pet sitter that I have met. Whenever I go on vacations now that I’ve met her two years ago I only leave my precious baby with her. I know that she cares for my dog just like her own, and always make sure to send pictures to update me without me asking. If there is any issues with her, not eating, she always make sure to get toppers and make sure that she had her meal or notify me. I fully love the communication skills and the active happiness. She shows up for my dog when her family is away, and that means the most to me. she is also taking care of a family members cat before and she has also done wonderfully and going to do house visits to feed and check on litters and also play with them for a little bit also while showing lots of pictures we love that from her thank you.”




14. Christos K.
About: I love dogs, as long as I lived. I have had at least 1 dog to take care of. Right now I have a Maltese. I plan on getting a second dog maybe a beagle. I also can house sit, I've done it several times for my aunts, uncles other family members and friends several times a year. I don't just get along with dogs and other animals I'm also a great people person. I'm very friendly and easy to talk to. Ask me anything you like about me and I will be 100% honest no matter the questions. I always pick up my dogs poop no matter how many times he does it. I hope to hear from you soon. Thank you for your time

16. Anthony T.
“Anthony T is a great pet caregiver! He has been a long time friend of mine and took care of both my cat and dog multiple times throughout the years where I had spent time out of town due to business or personal reasons. Anthony has always been my go-to for a pet-sitter! His charisma and positive energy definitely put the pets in a great attitude and he is easy to remain in touch w during my time away. Extremely friendly and reliable”


17. Donnamarie B.
“Trustworthy, dependable. It’s very comforting to know that your pup is with a true Animal lover. I get texts and pictures and videos throughout the day every time we are away. I’ve used a lot of people over the years to watch my dogs and haven’t used anyone else since finding Donna. 👍🏼❤️”

19. Nicole J.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I got my poodle pup at the age of 7. I currently have another poodle pup and I would treat them with love. I’m currently a college student but I will be in online classes and am able to take care of your pets and be with them basically 24/7. My classes are at night so throughout the day I will be able to feed, play, and walk them quite often. I have a fenced yard so they can’t get out. I also have a friendly poodle pup that would love to play with others. I have surveillance for extra protection. I have multiple dog beds at home with lots of toys for the puppies to play with for when I am able to offer dog sitting.
