William is an excellent Dog Sitter. His hours are very flexible, if I get stuck at work a little late. My dog loves him. As soon as we pull up to the house, he starts wagging his tail all excited to go visit his new friends.

About: Hello, Thank you for stopping by! My name is Jennifer. I currently have 3 kitties of my own. I do know how nerve-racking it could be leaving your pet with someone. I have left prior sitters visuals, maps, drawings when I have gone away (thank you OCD lol). I am probably a bit much but I need to know that while I'm away, my fur children are in nurturing loving hands not missing me. To say I am protective is an understatement. *I just came back to the site after having a few extensive surgeries so please do not go by the early reviews as I was only on here for a few months until I had to have surgeries - I’m doing great now :)* ***Please before you go on reading…yes, I understand my fees are higher than most. Upon meeting me, you will understand why. I will offer knowledge that may help you with your furbaby.If you are having a hard time with behavioral issues where other sitters won’t know what to do, I most likely will. The plethora of knowledge about dogs/cats/horse/fish/etc that is infinite. I may be able to offer you a couple tips that are possibly life changing. No, I do not have all the answers (if anyone says they do…you should most likely run). However, my knowledge regarding animals is far superior than the average pet sitter. I am 43 years old. I have chosen to take on this work because my heart is very into it. However, now that I am mostly home working on a project it makes it easier for me to sit for your pet. Unfortunately, boarding a doggo overnight within my home who has a lot of behavioral issues would not be a good fit for my cats nor is it fair to do this to them. If it is a mini breed or a larger vet well trained dog, we can discuss (please reach out as it can’t hurt to ask). I wouldn’t mind staying at your home on a case by case basis. If you needed me to give your pets a lot of love, adoration, full blown attention-enforce your commands that you’d like for me to withhold, have a couple of cognitive/ physical training sessions to help you with some behavioral issues/keep your pup sharp or even if it’s administering medications, etc…all your pets needs will be meet efficiently. If this is what you seek, I may be your gal. I welcome cameras in the home so that you are able to see how well your beloved companion is doing with me. I wish more people had cameras so that everyone gets to see how their pet is truly doing while you’re away! My experience with animals comes from years over time of being involved with rescue, surrounded by trainers, healers, tons and tons of self knowledge, audio books, old fashioned books, etc. I was born to hear animals and I consider it a huge gift. It is in my nature that when I am with your pet that my FULL attention is with your pet and your pet only. I myself have hired pet sitters who would sit on their phone in front of me while pet sitting and it was pretty irritating. I know the type of person I would want (and not want) watching my animals because I have been there before with kittens/cat/puppies/dogs. Another pet peeve of mine would be walking into a dog park and the owners aren't paying close attention to their dogs. Unfortunately, we live in an age where cell phones have become top priority and then the pup is put into a bad situation because of the lack of attention. I have seen it time after time and it has left me with a bad taste. This will never happen with me. If I don’t like the vibes - I don’t enter in. There is a proper way to introduce dogs and it’s not nose to nose but rather behind to behind. Dogs are not humans (well some are lol) they are dogs. They read the room very differently than how we would. I promise you wholeheartedly that this is something you will never have to worry about. You pet has my UNDIVIDED love and attention at all times on my watch. It is pertinent for your pet that I uphold and take full responsibility as your pet sitter to give them full attention the entire time they are with me. All of my pups learned their basic commands very early on. It means everything to me when a dog is speaking the same language as its owner. I wish to take your lead and follow everything precisely. When putting a dog on a "heel" command during a walk, my attention has to be two places: 1- On the pup and 2- Observant of the environment. I have fostered 2 dogs and have trained 3 dogs. I have broken the prey drive of 2 beautiful pit bulls and one Tree Walking Coonhound/Terrier dog with my cats. I have also broken anxiety of one of the dogs I was fostering. Truly it was a lot of work, time, patience, repetition and more patience but I got to learn so much about speaking dog. They teach you so many things. I had a very hard time finding someone to board my pup when I had him because I knew a bit more than they did which left me on edge. I sifted through a lot of sitters and it wasn't until I had someone teaching me something that I felt 100% confident in leaving my fur baby with them. I have worked along side with trainers and have read heaps fulls of dog language books/manuals/dvd's etc. I have been called the dog whisperer, cat whisperer/animal whisperer. I have also attended workshops for animal communication to further my education with animals. I look forward to building a career from this. I have obtained one Bachelors degree and a second Associates degree as well as obtaining my NYS license for massage therapy (for humans lol). I am very passionate about animals and have been called a healer. I am Reiki 2 Certified and do Reiki for animals. My entire heart is into this because animals don't have a voice. When I tell someone I can speak cat or dog they may look at me like I am from the funny farm but it’s true. There is a way of listening to an animal by its body language, sounds, breathing, even yawning etc. I have been clipping nails since high school of anxious pet owners pets nails, wiped out floppy ears, burrito wrapped cats for clippings, I’m able to administer medicine without a problem (there are tricks for this), brushing, you name it and I've probably done it. Anyway I can help, I am always willing if it’s for the cause of an animal. Snuggles are my favorite thing along with interactive puzzle type of games that your pups will crave if they would be so kind to join me. No job is too big for me to handle : ) Please let me know if you would like the garbage taken out, plants watered, etc. I am able to light housework if necessary. I will send a TON of pics upon your request because I know how on edge, especially first time sits could be for an owner. NOTE***Please let me know if your dog gets along with cats as this is the only way I can accept them for the safety of my own fur children as well as for the safety of your own pup*** Any information provided for your pet, I will adhere to. I always take 30 min to an hour a day for play/brush when it comes to my own. Please let me know your instructions- dog/cats likes and dislikes, allergies etc. I prefer crated pets because with this, it comes security and a lot less anxiety for your pet when used correctly and for positive reinforcement only. I like to think of it as a floating bedroom for them :) Looking forward to meeting you and your fur-baby/fur-babies soon! *Please note, yes…my fees are more than average because I am at a very advanced level when it comes to caring for you furbaby/furbabies. I would be willing to make and exception if the opportunity (especially be it someone local/within my mileage) presented itself! Thank you for carefully reading my profile. I look forward to a meet and greet with you and your fuzzy friend/s. I am currently working from home so I am pretty flexible where as time is concerned. Occasionally I will run to the store and back but it also depends on the dog so if I had to prepare myself a few days before your dogs arrival, I have no problem with this at all. I am flexible where this is concerned :) Let’s talk…maybe there is something I have missed in my profile but I try to be as descriptive as possible. I appreciate you taking the time to read everything I have written. Quite the novel, I am aware but I feel as a fellow pet owner myself, that you would want to know everything about who your pet is spending quality time with so I try to be as thorough as possible 🙂 Please see everything I have written on top as I believe I have covered all my bases where this is concerned. Thank you again for taking the time reading my full profile! Any questions I’d be happy to answer them, just please shoot me a message :)

Jonathan was excellent. He introduced my dog to his own dogs so that they can get comformtable around each other since my dog is afraid of big dogs. Jonathan kept updating me throughout the day with pictures and text messages. I was very happy with the service and care my pet got from Jonathan and will definitely go back to them in futuure.

About: I have had a love for all kinds of animals ever since I was a little kid. I’ve had every sort of pet, big and small, from fish to ferrets to dogs. While I have no professional experience looking after pets, I have always prided myself on my responsible and caring nature. I will make sure that your pet is comfortable, safe, and has fun! I have had dogs of my own for the past five years. Freddy is a 5 year old Italian Greyhound and Sammy is a 2 year old medium mixed breed. If you want your dog, big or small, to socialize both of my fur babies are excellent with other animals. If not, a one-on-one walk is totally doable! I have personal experience with cats, elderly dogs, puppies, gentle giants, and itty bitties. I’m also comfortable administering medication as my own dog has a seizure disorder that requires multiple medications several times a day. I’m currently studying for my board exams and need any excuse I can get to enjoy the summer weather. I would love to take your dog along with me on my walks and runs during study breaks. I would love to take your dog on a walk or run around your neighborhood or park. If your dog wants some socialization I can even bring one or both of my pups along for a play-date. If I’m with your dog I will treat them as if they were my own. When I take my dogs out for a walk I am always diligent about traffic and others in our area. I pay attention to my dog’s body language and will adjust our route according to their comfort. I always check the pavement to make sure it is not too hot and always have water, treats, poop bags, and paw balm with me!

We needed a last minute sitter while traveling to New Jersey and Dhruvit and his family were such a blessing. They accepted right away and they were flexible even when we ran a bit behind on pick up. They sent photos often which always puts me at ease and my Melo came back to me happy.

About: My fiancé, Shandy, and I are extremely playful and caring people. We have had pets since a young age and know how to manage pets with social anxiety, rescued animals, animals with need of medication, etc. During our 2018 summer, my fiancé was interning at a Veterinarian clinic and her job was to feed, play, and inject/give animals their medication. If you need a pet sitter than let us know and if we’re available we will be able to give him/her the attention they need. My fiancé and I both work. Shandy works part-time so she will mostly be available but I work full-time 3-4 days a week so that’s why we work on this together. We will respect what is okay or not okay depending on each owner’s pets. For example, we can take them to dog parks if they get along with other dogs or if they don’t like being walked and only wee wee pad trained we will pick up after them.

They sent us pictures and texts throughout the day and I could tell Dodger was doing well there. We feel good knowing he’s cared for in a clean and happy household!

I am available on most days and can be there for lunch routines. I am available during my lunch breaks for dog walks. I have one mini bernedoodle, who is the most friendly dog in the world.
