Pet Sitting in Parlin

About: Your dogs care is my top priority! I take on 1 household at a time so your fur babies will get all the care and attention they deserve and require. My name is Megan, and I am a lover of all animals! I had 3 cats for 17 years, and since they have passed, I very much miss having animals in my everyday life. I am beyond grateful for this opportunity to spend time with your fur babies and will treat them like my own. In addition to owning cats, over the years, I have volunteered in animal shelters and have pet sat caring for both cats and dogs. I have experience caring for animals needing iv fluids, with hygiene specifications, daily medication, and special diets. I have experience in massage therapy and will happily give your little one a therapeutic rub down! My attention to detail and love for animals makes me a very hands-on caregiver. I currently work in my towns school district (typically M-F 7am-2pm) just 2 miles down the road. I am off summers, major and religious holidays and am able to be home at 10:15 during my lunch break for 30min walks/visits so your pup would never be left alone for more than 3 hrs on days I work. I will always be transparent about my schedule and only ever accept jobs where I know I can give your animal the attention they deserve. I will be your pets main caretaker but I live with my retired mother, Donna, who is around at times to lend a helping hand. I am a homebody who also loves the outdoors. When I am not home, I love to go on hikes, visit parks, and take walks in nature. I prefer the company of animals to people, so I can assure you they will never want for attention or affection! I welcome as much information/details about your pets routine as possible so I can keep them feeling safe, happy, and regulated during their stay. Other than the few hours I may be at work, I spend close to every other minute with the pups I care for. I welcome your pets to sit with me on the couch and sleep with me at night! Unless it is your wish to keep them off furniture, where I go, they go :) I have a gated yard (44in) for your dog to run and play. I live on a long quiet street, great for our walks. I am close to several parks. I am happy to give your pet whatever activity level you desire and they feel comfortable with. Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep our little buddy happy! I have a close family member who was a vet tech and has a vast working knowledge I can call upon if ever necessary. If you have any questions don’t be afraid to shoot me a message and ask away!

“This is our second time booking Yvette. She was punctual, patient with my shy cats, and thorough with daily tasks. Our experience was great and we will continue to use Yvette!”

“Dominique came in twice a day every day to watch and care for my dogs while I was traveling abroad. She updated me daily with pictures and let me know how my dogs were doing. I felt very much at ease knowing that she was taking care of them and letting me know along the way if there were any problems. I highly recommend her to care for your dogs and I will definitely be booking her again!”

“Mike was communicative, adherent to our schedule, and followed all instructions requested of him. He also sent a ton of pictures, which I really appreciated. It was refreshing to just be able to enjoy my trip knowing that my dog was taken care of. I would absolutely recommend him to others (just not during the times I’m away 😉)”

“Kimberly is an awesome pet center. She took care of our cats for 3 1/2 weeks making sure they had food water and a clean litter box. She also did a few other things around our place. I would totally recommend her for your pet sitting services. She volunteered to vacuum and take out the trash and take out the trash even though that was not on our list of to do‘s.”

“Allison is great and dependable. I can always count on her when I need someone to check on my dog when I am not around. Allison always sends me updates with a report and photo's.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for over 20 years. I have experience training puppies and caring for special needs and senior pups. I also have plenty of experience giving medication and administering injections. My house is equipped with nanny cams so that I can check in on pets when I am not home. I work 5 minutes from my house and get home at 3 pm daily. I come home on my lunch break to check in on pets. I have a large fenced in yard and a 3 year old (neutered) French bulldog who loves company. I have ample space to crate your pet if need be. We live in a great neighborhood with lots of sidewalks and tons of great walking paths. We also live 10 minutes from a dog park. My house is a nonsmoking home and my 2 children are over the age of 10 and really good with all types of pets.

We currently have a beautiful Golden Retriever female. She does great with dogs and do well with others. She’s very very obedient and very playful! We both do have plenty of experience watching family and friends pets throughout the time. We both work however one of us work part-time and has the whole summer off. We’ve adapted real well with the care of the the fur babies coming to our home. We make sure they are cared for and give them the attention they need to make them feel comfortable and happy! We have a large gated play area where the dogs can do their business and play without any issues. Water is also in their play area so they can drink after their play. I have summer off so one of us will always be home caring for your fur babies and taking them on 2 walks a day and letting them play in the yard for free play:) I have a fenced yard and a very friendly dog to keep your fur babies company and to play with:) if needed I can crate your dog for safety purposes but if not they are roaming free if they were at home

“Elizabeth is a joy to work with! She is responsible, competent, compassionate, and dedicated. Not only is she prompt in her check-in’s she really cares about the animals she works with. During a challenging moment with my dog while we were on vacation, she politely remained in contact but took control of the situation and both the house and dog were right as rain by the time we got back! 10/10 would hire her again!”

About: I have a 10 month old puppy and two 10 year old cats of my own! I spoil them rotten and will do the same for yours. I love going on long walks that allow your dog to be fully enriched and engulfed in their surroundings. Whether you prefer your dog to go on structured walks, sniffy walks, or anything in-between, I can do it all! I love dog walking and making the most out of our time together. I work as a social worker at a local school district so I would love to do after school walks! On breaks from school, my availability is fully open. I also love spending my time on weekends outdoors and would absolutely love exploring with your dog Saturday/Sunday anytime. I would love to do neighborhood walks or nature walks with your dogs and play with them in the yard. I can also provide drop in visits for potty breaks and fetch in the yard!

“Ben took great care of Kaiju! The little guy was tuckered out and happy after hanging out with Ben. He even went the extra mile and gave Kai an awesome bath! Definitely recommend him and will definitely ask him to care for Kaiju again!”

About: While I’m still learning about dog care, this journey is deeply personal to me. When I was in the Philippines, a dog chose me—he attached to the hip with me, bonded with me, and completely stole my heart. His name is Bluey, and ever since, I’ve been doing everything I can to safely bring him to the U.S. These next few months, I’m dedicating myself to learning how to care for dogs by showing up for yours as I would for mine—with patience, presence, and real love. I’ve always been inspired by people like Cesar Millan and Rocky Kanaka who connect with dogs on an emotional level, and I hope to grow into that kind of caretaker too. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I walk in the early mornings (as early as 5–6 AM) and late afternoons to stay active, learn responsibility, and prepare for my own rescue pup, Bluey. As a licensed esthetician, I’ve care for people with gentleness, patience, and calm energy—especially when they’re anxious or sensitive. I bring that same approach to every dog I walk, focusing on peaceful routines and emotional awareness. It’s the same client-centered care I offer in the spa—just with a leash instead of a facial brush.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and am a huge dog lover. As I have yet to get a pup of my own, I’ve been sitting for family, friends, and family friends for more than 5 years, where I mainly housesit. I’ve had experience watching dogs of all ages, from grumpy seniors with medication to lively puppies who need extra clean up time, to anxious Covid babies. I am very detail-oriented as I respect that each dog has their personal routine and want to ensure that not much is disrupted for them when I visit/stay. I understand the importance of keeping in contact with owners (only to the extent that you wish to be contacted) throughout the day. I guarantee that I will take plenty of photos of your pet and will be happy to share them! Note: I am based near Princeton, NJ but have moved my service location to be able to capture NYC for housesits. I work fully remotely, so I'm flexible to working with your pet's schedule when housesitting. I'm available for afternoon walks, or to come to housesit from the evenings usually. I'm also willing to travel to housesit (I've travelled to DC before!), though this would require travel coverage as part of compensation. ***For house sits of 1 week or longer, I ask owners to support in covering my meals. Gift cards or a stocked fridge are very much appreciated! *** I tend to ask clients for a document with their pet's daily routine, and how their behaviours are. I will care for your pets as you would advise to care for them in order to maintain consistency and not confuse them. Afterall, I am the guest in staying in their space should I be housesitting. For walks and drop-ins, I would like to also respect your pet's routine and ensure that they are comfortable and at ease.

About: I begged to have dogs my entire life and when I finally got them I trained both of them to the best of my ability at 9 years old. Eventually I hope to acquire some dogs of my own but, for now I will gladly settle to help out some neighborhood pets in order to put myself through college. I am home full time currently recovering from my college semester. I don’t do much during the week besides stay home so, I have plenty of time to be with your four legged friends! I have had plenty of experiences caring for family and friends pets. My own dogs are fairly old and both require special care with one having a skin condition and the other being deaf so, I have experience with special needs pets and am willing to accommodate any pets’ needs. I have other family to care for my pets while I am monitoring or walking yours so that both can be cared for.
