Dog Sitting Passaic

“She watched Daisy and did a fantastic job. Daisy was a little nervous at first but she worked with her and by the end of my vacation they were sitting on the backyard stairs cuddling!”

“Melissa was great with our cat Luna. She followed our care instructions perfectly and provided us with daily updates. She even stayed extra long each visit! We'd definitely hire Melissa again in the future.”

About: I have always felt a strong connection to animals. I believe our pets are just as important as any other family member. I grew up with dogs and now have a puppy that I share with my partner who is quite truly our child. One of my recent clients said, "Rachel, you see animals as if they are little children, with personalities, feelings and emotions. I've never come across anyone that is as intuitive with them as you are". I'm that girl who will stop you in the middle of the street to pet your pup just because he or she looked at me. I want to give them as much love as I possibly can. My patience is my biggest asset and skill as a pet parent, sitter and dog walker. I want to give your pup the same attention as I give my own. I sit for both puppies, kitties and senior animals. I'm experienced with special care needs such as medication management or any other special care your animal may require. When I'm caring for your your pet(s) they becomes my family and I give them the gentle care and loyal love they deserve. PS. Our beloved Rocco passed over the rainbow bridge in early June. We are in the process of adopting another puppy. As a freelancer, I often have a flexible schedule and am happy to come up with a schedule that works for us both - weather you are looking for regular care or are simply taking a trip for the weekend and need someone to look after your fuzzball. I am able to provide sitting services at your home, walking sessions, drop-in visits or play dates. I live with my partner and am able to care for your pup in our home or in yours, the choice is yours. My partner is allergic to cats, so although, I am not able to board them in my home unfortunately. But, I am more than happy to board them in your home, drop by for a cuddle, play time, in home stay. I love going on walks and can play with your pets to make sure they stay happy and mentally enriched. I can also brush your pets hair for you, bathe them as well as give massages.

About: Hi there! I’m Maria, and I absolutely love caring for animals — they’ve been a part of my life since I was little. I’ve volunteered at Paws NY and other dog-focused organizations, and helped friends and family with their pets over the years. I also have special experience with senior dogs, having cared for my own Bichon Frise, who lived to 16. That taught me patience, compassion, and how to make pets feel comfortable and loved at every stage of life. I treat every furry friend as if they were my own, with plenty of affection, play, and attention💗🐶 **What I Offer: - One-on-one care: Only one dog at a time, so your pet gets my full attention. -Never alone: Your pet will always have company and care. -Calm, safe home: Private, quiet, no kids or other pets. -Perfect location: Very easy access, calm, family-friendly and beautiful neighborhood! -Active or relaxed pets: Walks, play, and exercise for energetic pups; gentle, patient care for older or calmer pets. -Health & safety: Administering medications (pills, injections, topical treatments), following special diets, and monitoring senior pets. -Enrichment & comfort: Puzzle toys, scent games, and extra care for anxious or nervous pets. -Frequent updates: Photos and videos via WhatsApp or your preferred method, so you can see your pet happy and safe in real time. -Flexible scheduling: Drop-ins, overnight stays, or extended care tailored to your pet’s routine. -Grooming basics: Brushing, paw checks, and keeping coats clean and comfortable I have a very flexible schedule and can care for your pets in the mornings, afternoons, or evenings — whatever works best for you! I love keeping dogs and cats happy with walks, playtime, and cuddles. We care for pets as a family — my mom, dad, and I all share the responsibility, so your furry friend will never be alone while staying with us 💗 I have my own apartment in a very calm and beautiful neighborhood— it’s a very pet-friendly area! Safety, calm, and love are my top priorities. I make sure every pet feels secure, happy, and cared for. I adapt to each pet’s personality and routine, creating an environment you can feel confident leaving them in.

“Daniel was beyond responsible and responsive, although I was far away he made sure to inform me on each visit on my senior dog and cat. I know for sure who to contact in the future !”

“Michelle has been fantastic. My dog is a rescue and often takes a bit of time to warm up to new people. Michelle was so patient with him and continues to provide the highest level of care for him. Michelle is very responsive and always communicates before and after the visit. I’d highly recommend Michelle to help care for your pets!”

“I was so worried about leaving Louie and Karina just treats him like her own! Keeping him playful and happy the whole time. He gets so excited to see her- we’re very lucky 🥰”

About: I have owned dogs since I was 6 and have experience with caring for four dogs at one time. I currently own two dogs and have owned five in my lifetime. I have been responsible for their care and training, and I am comfortable with both large and small dogs, puppies and seniors, as well as multiple at a time. I have experience caring for pets of friends and neighbors, and I am good at following instructions, as I know how particular pets can be! I am in college and have the ability to work whatever hours fit your needs- early mornings, late nights, weekends. It can be hard to be with your pet 24/7, and I understand that and am willing to work with whatever you may need. I am in college with an irregular schedule, so I can fit your needs at times others cannot. I am willing to work early mornings, late nights, and weekends, and I am experienced in balancing school and work. I see taking care of dogs as more of a passion, so I will work hard to make sure you get the care you deserve. I have experience caring for pets in others' homes, and I am a quick learner. I love detailed instructions; tell me everything I could ever need to know about your pets, and I will work to accommodate them and respect your space.

About: As someone who has had many fur babies, I understand how hard it can be to leave them! My goal is to make that experience less stressful and ensure that you are stress free while away. I have had extensive experience caring for animals ranging from dogs and cats to reptiles, amphibians, fish, guinea pigs, mice, rats and hamsters. I currently have a cat and guinea pigs but have had all of the prior listed animals at one point or another. I am comfortable doing care for special needs animals and don’t mind the extra time that they need. I am available on short notice and during some odd hours due to grad school. I am a current grad student so I have flexible timing as well as last minute availability. I am available most weekdays after 3pm and anytime on the weekends. Given my experience with many pets, I know how to safely handle many species as well as care for cats and dogs. I am also trained in animal cpr and am comfortable dealing with any special needs an animal has as well as any emergencies that may arise.

About: Growing up, my childhood home was affectionately known as "The Zoo"—and for good reason! From dogs and cats to bunnies, hamsters, hermit crabs, and fish, I’ve spent my life surrounded by a diverse cast of creatures. With over 20 years of hands-on experience, I’ve transitioned from a kid who loved animals to a seasoned caregiver who understands the nuances of pet behavior and health. I’m particularly well-versed in specialized care; I can confidently administer medications and manage complex health routines and I’m a dedicated "cat parent" to my own senior kitty who has CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease), so I truly understand the patience, vigilance, and extra TLC required for pets with chronic conditions. Whether your pet is high-energy or requires more care, they’ll be in experienced, loving hands. I am home all day with open availability and would love to fit your special furry loved one into my schedule and keep them company! I believe that every interaction should be rooted in building a genuine foundation of trust; when an animal feels secure, they can truly thrive. This bond is especially vital for pets requiring special care or medications—I take the time to move at their pace so that even during medical routines, they feel safe, happy, and relaxed rather than stressed.

“I always feel at ease having Bryndon check up on my pup. I always worry since a corso is not an easy dog to manage but he always has tons of fun with Bryndon. I also enjoy all the cute pics I get :) he’s very respectful of our house rules too”

About: I've cared for all sorts of dogs growing up: big dogs, small dogs, lazy dogs, hyper dogs, old dogs, and young dogs. I've even cared for my roommate's cat from time to time. I love every second of it, and your pet will love everything about me! I can guarantee that your pet will be in good hands! I am available at all hours between Monday through Thursday. If it is to just let your pet outside or to watch over your house while you are away overnight, I am available! Walking and playing are some of the highest priorities for pet parents, so that will be mine as well. I will make sure your pet will be entertained and walked/let out as instructed. As well as feedings and bathings! *Will not bathe aggressive pets*

“Maxibel did an amazing job taking care of my two pups! From the start, communication was clear and consistent, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s obvious how much she genuinely cares about animals my dogs were happy, well cared for, and comfortable the entire time. I came home to two relaxed and content pups, which says everything. I would absolutely trust Maxibel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

Safety is always my top priority, and I’ll provide photo and text updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: From the many years of having a Labrador I have learned many ways of taking care of a dog especially since mine is very wild. Recently a few years ago have also gotten a miniature schnauzer and I enjoy the amount of love I receive from both my pets. I also have much experience taking care of dogs from my sisters German shepherd that she has had the past years. I have a huge love for animals and I aim to provide the best care for any animal I am around. My time volunteering at the animal shelter in my home town has also shown me how different types of breeds act and how to calm them down. They also showed me the basic care that cats and dogs need. I tend to be the guy that plays with the dog in social gatherings mainly because I want to have a solid connection with them. The other pets in my pictures that are not mine are dogs I have cared for and found/rescued I can care for pets almost anytime before 4pm and I can stay the night with them almost very night. Of course a proper 1 day notice is appreciated I make sure to know rules the owners may have specific to their pets needs. Aside from that making sure they are in a comfortable environment with water and fed at their meal times. If allowed , walks too so they can use the bathroom and for exercise.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over five years, and I have two small dogs of my own that I love. I’m organized, responsible, and attentive, and I provide each dog with personalized care, walks, and playtime. I also prioritize clear communication with owners, just as I appreciate when someone cares for my own pets. I’m available all week, including weekends. Just reach out and we can discuss your schedule. I kindly ask owners to be honest about their pets’ needs and behavior so I can provide the best care and avoid any issues during their stay. I prefer to care for pets at my home, where I can provide a safe and comfortable environment. I offer boarding only for small dogs, as I live on a 2nd floor, and I have a backyard where pets can play at least twice a day, along with neighborhood walks. My goal is for every dog to have a happy and enjoyable stay. For any specific details or questions, feel free to contact me.

“Tez was very attentive to our cats. She took great photos of the cats and had very detailed notes 😊 We will definitely use her services again! Highly recommend 😊”
