“Boryana was wonderful with my dog! She came for a meet & greet to go over everything. During the visit she took such great care of him & sent me photos and updates. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

“This was my first time working with Kassidy and it’s truly been a pleasure. She took great care of Beau while I was out. She sent me pictures from the walks as well as updates on how it went. She also fed Beau before the evening walk and made sure that the lights were turned on before leaving. I’ll definitely be using Kassidy again and would recommend her to anyone that is looking for a pet sitter!”

About: I have grown up in my life with animals all around me and my family has owned many dogs. My family cherishes the animals, loves and cares for them a lot. They all have an exception for dogs and loves to be around dogs. I always take the care of a dog in my heart and try to show the world that there should never be cruelty towards a dog. They only know how to love, I want to show people that, and caress these beautiful loving creatures with kindness. Each and every dog has an amazing and different personality that I love to see and to communicate with them is even more fun and exciting to do. It really is an amazing time to spend with dogs. I have online classes from 6–9 p.m., so I have plenty of time during the day and on weekends to care for your pets! Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company, I’m happy to adjust to their routine. Your pets will always get the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away. My home is calm, safe, and full of love for animals. I always take time to learn each pet’s personality and comfort level so they feel relaxed and cared for. I’m experienced with senior pets and medications, and I make sure every animal, whether shy or social, feels secure, respected, and happy in my care.
“We can't say enough wonderful things about Kate! From the moment we met, it was clear she has a genuine love for dogs and our Harvey absolutely thrives during their walks. Kate consistently go above and beyond, making sure Harvey gets plenty of exercise, and mental stimulation. We always receive detailed updates with photos, which gives us complete peace of mind knowing Harvey is having a blast. Kate has become a trusted part of our family and we would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a top-notch dog walker.”
“Nina was great, friendly, reliable, and had a can-do attitude. My pup came home happy and relaxed, it was clear she had a great time. I would absolutely recommend her!”

“Our dog loves the time he spends with Michaela. She happily accommodates our requests to extend each visit to allow time for play and a feeding on top of a walk. She sends photos and updates which puts us at ease. Michaela is flexible and responds quickly - both of which we appreciate so much when planning care for our dog! Would absolutely recommend!”

“Brianna is fantastic, she takes excellent care of my dog on his walks and gives him plenty of attention. My pup is special needs and my schedule can be difficult to work with, so finding someone as good as Brianna is hard to do, but she didn't hesitate to accommodate us. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her for anyone in need of a caretaker for their pets!”
“Elizabeth came over to meet our two pups. She spent a lot of time at the meet and greet, was patient with each dog, and said hello to our rabbit. Elizabeth came to walk both dogs while my partner and I were away for dinner. She was on time and there were no issues. We hope to reach out to her in the future. Thank you, Elizabeth!”

About: Hi there! I’m Kira/Kiwi🥝(they/she) :)) Over my 14+ years of pet care experience, I’ve cared for a wide variety of pets, including dogs of all ages (seniors included!) and sizes (biggest was 125lbs; prefer a 100lb max limit plz :)). Caring for gentle giants, puppies, and dogs that get a bad rap is where I feel most comfortable🥰 I trained all my dogs and took care of them from age 8 onwards, and have cared for many of my friends' dogs as well. I grew up with a Lab/German Shepherd rescue and raised a Lab/Pit/Pointer rescue pup, and for a brief time, a grown Rottie when I was a baby. I also have experiences with dog bathing and routine grooming/trimming; my regulars were Goldens and Labs (big puppies to arthritic seniors), small puppies (I got lots of pug puppies!), our sweet and vocal Huskies, many anxious pups, and a majority of my lovely furry clients were Pitties and bully breeds of all ages. I also have plenty of experience with anxious dogs and cats of all ages; I’m very patient and I let Them set the pace! I’m quick on my feet, a fast learner, and I will care for your furry children as if they were my own. I can’t wait to meet you and your dog(s)! Please feel free to reach out with any inquiries or questions! Let’s set up a meet-and-greet to see if we’re a good fit :)) I currently work part-time in pet care in my professional life, while I save up to continue my education. I pet sit in my free time :)) Safety and trust are the most important aspects to pet care, besides our unconditional love for our sweet animals! Your house, your rules. All doors closed? You got it. Cat can come in and out? No problem! Only walk with a specific harness and leash? I got you! Ensuring your peace of mind and your pet’s safety is my top priority, just let me know your boundaries and care preferences!
About: I have always had at least two dogs in my life since the day I was born until attending college and currently have two living at home in Florida with my mom. I’ve been dog- and cat-sitting and walking on and off for years, both in NYC and around the world. I also have extensive experience with senior dogs and puppies, having owned and cared for both. I’m that person who stops to smile at and pet every dog I pass by. I just moved to New Jersey and want to continue to spend time with animals. I will treat your pets like my own! :) I just graduated from grad school at Columbia and I work part-time, remotely, and on my own schedule, so I have lots of flexibility and time to care for and play with your furry friends! I have cared for pets of all ages and sizes throughout my life, from dogs, cats, horses, and more, and I love being around animals! I am comfortable with high strung puppies, low key older animals, administering medications, going on walks and to play times, and everything in between. I just adore time spent with animals. If you have any specific concerns please don’t hesitate to ask me.
