House Sitting Plainsboro

About: I have experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including cats, dogs, reptiles, and birds! I grew up with two dogs and chickens and I currently have two cats and a bearded dragon of my own. I have previously pet sat for neighbors and family friends, caring for both cats and dogs. I am comfortable with daily pet care, including feeding, grooming, walking, cleaning, and providing plenty of attention and affection. I also have experience administering medications, including injections, and understand the importance of following care instructions carefully. Whether your pet has fur, feathers, or scales, I strive to provide attention, reliable, and loving care tailored to their individual needs. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, and I want both you and your pets to feel comfortable and confident while you’re away! I work full-time from home as a customer service agent, generally between 10 AM and 6 PM, Monday through Friday. Because my job is remote, I have flexibility throughout the day to accommodate pet care needs, check in on your pets, and provide attention and companionship while you’re away. I’m available for pet care on both weekdays and weekends. I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s needs and routine! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities! As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your beloved animals. I have two cats and a bearded dragon of my own, so I understand that every pet has unique needs, routines, and personalities.

“Boryana took amazing care of our senior pitbull, Brady. She was very patient with his quirks and eccentricities (e.g. he has acquired a habit of lying down for rests mid-walk). He often seems a little out of sorts after we come back from a long trip, but this time he was very relaxed and happy. Communication was top notch and our house was left in perfect condition. We can't recommend Boryana highly enough, and hope she'll be available to take care of Brady again in the future!”

About: Hello, my name is Jeffrey and I am an Animal Care Technician and Doggy Daycamp Counselor currently working at Best Friends Pet Hotel. I have worked there for over 2 years now as working with animals is my passion. Outside of working at a pet hotel, I have also been responsible for walking, feeding, and giving water to my neighbors dogs as well. As of right now I am currently a student at Penn State Univeristy, majoring in criminal justice in hopes of becoming a New Jersey State Trooper, I plan on becoming a K9 officer. Before, in between and after my classes during the weekdays, I am available for services. I love all dogs and treat them all as my own. As of now, I have cared for hundreds, if not thousands of dogs through my work.

“Vee is amazing. She was so thoughtful and attentive to our dog Peter. He really enjoyed his time with her sitting him. Vee was very communicative and shared plenty of photos. We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her.”

“Ruth is an incredible sitter and we can’t wait to use her again! She’s so friendly and naturally gets along with both dogs and cats so well. She was very communicative, sent adorable pics and kept us updated the whole time. So glad we found her!”

About: Craft an engaging "About Me" Tell pet owners about the love and care you’ll provide for their pets. Don’t be afraid to brag about your pet care experience, special skills, your personal qualities, and how you will keep their pets happy and safe. What sorts of activities will a dog enjoy on a stay with you? Where will you go on walks? What fun activities will you do together? What would you like to know about a dog before sitting him or her? Do you have any breed preferences? Do you know dog first aid and/or CPR? Yes No Can you administer oral medication to dogs? Yes No Can you administer injected medication to dogs? Yes No Do you have experience taking care of senior dogs? Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy being active and spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent walks, check-ins, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the week. I’m organized, reliable, and attentive to maintaining each pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and secure while in my care. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday visits, or evening care, I make sure pets receive the attention, exercise, and affection they need. In a client’s home, I respect and follow each owner’s routines, feeding schedules, walking preferences, and any special instructions to help pets feel secure and maintain consistency. I am mindful of their behavior, body language, and safety during walks and visits, and I always ensure pets have fresh water, supervision, affection, and a clean environment. I understand how important trust and communication are, so I provide updates, photos, and check-ins to give owners peace of mind while they’re away. My goal is for both pets and owners to feel comfortable, supported, and confident in the care being provided.

About: Diagnosed with allergies in childhood, I didn’t have pets until in my 20s, when I picked a week-old kitten from a litter & raised him. Thelonious used to walk between my shoulders as I moved around the house, and slept in my bed. Friends told me he behaved more like a dog than a cat—very affectionate. We were very close. His death broke my heart & I still miss him. Seven years ago, I did cat-sitting for a friend whose apartment in NYC I stayed in for a summer while working nearby on Varick Street. He was a very easygoing cat. Years later, my stepson left his dogs at our house & I was their primary minder. I fed, walked & played with them every day. Although I’d been around dogs a lot growing up, it’s one thing to be around them & another to be responsible for them & develop relationships with them. Each of the dogs had a very distinct personality, and I found them fascinating. Through those & other experiences with friends’ pets, I’ve found that I’m able to make connections with animals that go beyond words. I never would have imagined such a thing in childhood. These days I do house sitting & drop-ins for clients in Monmouth, Mercer & Middlesex Counties. I’m tending to pets with a wide range of needs & dispositions, and love I give is more than equaled by the love I receive from them. I’m truly humbled & in awe. Professionally, I managed desktop publishing & automated publishing for a Fortune 500 financial firm for 20 years. So I have a long track record of responsibility & discipline. That combination of sensitivity & responsibility are what I bring to pet sitting. I only accept clients living within a 30-minute drive from my home, and my routines at home are easily adaptable to meet my clients’ needs. That means my highly flexible schedule allows me to provide your cat with the consistent time, routine, and attention they deserve while you are gone. I don’t rush my check-ins; I stay the full duration to ensure your pet gets plenty of physical play and mental stimulation. Because my hours are highly adaptable, I can drop in at the exact times your pet expects breakfast, dinner, or treats. I’m happy to take photos during my stay to enable you as the pet owner to feel secure about your pet’s care in your absence. I like to play with & talk to pets, and try to adhere to their normal routines, so they, too, feel comfortable in your absence.

“Veer did a great job taking care of my 3 dogs for 6 days. He stopped over a couple of times before my trip to make sure he knew their schedule and where to find everything in the house. During the stay he was very responsive to any questions or concerns I had and kept me updated with pictures and videos of the dogs. I could tell the dogs were happy and could see that he really cared for them. The house was clean and in the same condition as when I left. He even brought my garbage pail up from the curb and brought my mail in! I would definitely book with Veer again!”

I love dogs so much, unfortunately my apartment complex does not allow dogs. I will definitely spoil and love on your dogs! I am in college Full time, but most are online so I can do it anywhere!

I am unsure how Sunny would react to other pets. Also, my apartment doesn’t allow dogs.

“Abby was very accommodating and caring watching our high energy puppy for several days. Most importantly, we came home to a happy dog. Abby handled an unexpected medical issue promptly and professionally and we felt confident and at ease with our dog in Abby's care. It was our first time leaving him with someone other than family and we would definitely use Abby again in the future.”

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lovers with a deep passion of caring for pets of all kinds. Growing up surrounded by cats, dogs, and plenty of other furry (and not-so-furry) friends taught me how much love and care they deserve. My top priority is always making sure your pets are happy, healthy, and feeling loved. From feeding routines and walks to cuddle time (or just calm company for the more independent types), I make sure each pet feels comfortable and cared for according to their unique personality. I love keeping pets engaged with fun, stimulating activities. For cats, that might mean interactive toys, puzzle feeders, or laser play. For dogs, it’s usually games of fetch, tug-of-war, or a good old-fashioned frisbee toss. Even reptiles get the same thoughtful attention (maybe less cuddling, but plenty of care and respect!). Every pet deserves the best care possible, and that’s what I promise to provide. Whether you’re going away for a day or a week, I will treat your furry family member as if they were our own. I’d love to meet your pets and help you feel at ease while you’re away!

About: I've owned cats and bunnies my whole life and I've sat for dogs big and small (I once sat for an Great Dane and an Italian Greyhound at the same time!) I'm a very patient person and in good shape, so I'll be happy to get your dogs the exercise they need and care for them. I work a full time job, either 2-10pm or 12-8pm, on a rotating schedule. I’m happy to help out in the morning or on my days off. please reach out to me so we can see if I can help you and your pet out! I'm unable to sit dogs at my house because of the limited space alongside my two rabbits and cat who occupy it, but I'd be happy to take care of your dogs at a location of your choice (as long as it's within 25 miles of my house). I can feed, walk, clean/clean up after, and play with your dog according to their needs.

About: Hello Walks and wags are everything. Owner of a female Shepherd and grew up around dogs my entire life. On my visits, lots of individual time spent playing, treating, training and caring for your child. 30 minute minimum walking, playing fetch, brushing, and above all keeping in contact with the owner at all times. Send in lots of fun texts, pictures through your work day to ensure your pet is safe and with a doubt happy. When under my care I treat each animal with compassion and care as though they where my own. Ultimately looking for a few consistent clients to become part of my everyday business and bringing relieve to each owner knowing your pet is under the best care possible. Thank you. I’m currently working although with flexibility in my schedule I am can make it work to take time and care for your dog during the week/weekend. Dropping by while your at work or away is no problem for me. Making sure to take great care of your dog is my top priority and I treat them like one of my own.

About: I’ve been raising and caring for dogs since I was 8! Having been the primary person for pups of all different kinds I understand the anxiety of leaving your pet alone for too long! I have experience with both young puppies and old timers, and I happen to be an expert pill-in-cheese wrapper for any dog in need of medical upkeep. I have been house and dog sitting for about 3 years now, just by word of mouth and recently decided to transition to Rover to expand my clientele. Let’s connect! I am currently working part-time teaching English as a Second Language! When I am not in the classroom, I’ll have plenty of time to bond and relax with your puppy! Consistent upkeep is the name of the game! Whether I’m watching your home or your dog, I make sure to maintain a consistent schedule of habits to keep your home and family member clean and comfortable.

“Rachele was amazing watching my special needs (blind, deaf, and anxious) dog and cat while we were gone for a long weekend! We came home to a clean home and happy animals. She was easy to communicate with and asked all the right questions to make sure she knew the routine. 10/10 would recommend and definitely rebooking for future trips!”

“Gary did a wonderful job caring for our Shiba while we were away! He was able to follow our detailed instructions and requests, gave our dog lots of exercise and attention, and kept in very active communication with us sending pictures and videos and updates. We will definitely call on Gary again!”
