About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for nearly 19 years, and I absolutely love being around them! 🐾 I’ve raised 3 dogs - 2 from puppyhood to adulthood. Over the years I’ve had plenty of experience caring for friends’ dogs and cats, from playtime and walks to keeping them company and sticking to their usual routines. I know how important it is for pets to feel comfortable, loved and safe when their people are away. Because I’ve had dogs for most of my life, I’m very comfortable with all kinds of personalities and ages. I’m patient, attentive, responsible and happy to give your pet the extra love and attention they deserve. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your furry family member(s) and make sure they have a happy, fun and comfortable time while you’re away! I currently have a full-time office job in West Caldwell, NJ. I work until 5pm during the week, and typically available by 5:30pm during the week. Weekends are fairly open for lots of playtime with your furry family! I care for every pet as if they were my own! I know that pets feel most comfortable when they can stick to their normal routines, so I make sure to follow each owner’s instructions closely regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime and anything else their pet needs. I love giving pets plenty of attention, whether that means going for walks, playing, cuddling on the couch or simply keeping them company. I’m also very attentive to their individual personalities and will give them space if they’re shy or need extra time the arm up. When caring for a pet in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their home and make sure to leave everything just as I found it. Most importantly, I want both pets and their owners to feel comfortable and confident to at they’re in good hands while they’re apart.

“Alexa was great! She was incredibly responsive and took good care of our two kitties while we were away. She kept us updated throughout, and we could tell she genuinely cared about our cats. We would absolutely book her again!”

“Sevinc is absolute fantastic. She was extremely attentive and friendly to my cat Arthur. I definitely felt at ease, especially with this being my cat’s first time alone overnight. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable and trustworthy pet sitter.”

About: I've helped take care of friends and families pets throughout my life. While I have no pets of my own due to my living space, I can't wait to meet your fur babies and add them to my list of friends! Before transitioning to independent pet care, I spent years working as a Seafood Manager. In that role, I was directly responsible for strict food safety protocols, meticulous sanitation, and managing high-stakes daily operations. I bring that exact same level of professional detail, reliability, and cleanliness into your home. You can trust that your pet's medication schedules, dietary restrictions, and safety protocols will be followed precisely. Dedicated Time Blocks: I structure my schedule around dedicated morning to mid-day walking blocks (8 AM – 3 PM) and evening check-ins to ensure consistency. I am available for other times depending on the day as well. Punctuality First: As a former manager, I view schedules as strict commitments. Your pets will be fed, walked, and checked on at their exact scheduled times .Overnight Consistency: For house-sitting clients, I maintain a reliable presence in your home, aligning my routine with your pet’s natural sleep and wake cycles. Required Meet & Greets: I schedule a brief, mandatory introductory meeting before confirming any booking to ensure your timeline fits perfectly with my availability. My Safety & Care Protocols: For Your Dogs: Secure Equipment Checks: I double-check collars, harnesses, and leashes before stepping outside. I never allow off-leash play in unsecured areas. Behavior Awareness: I maintain high alertness on walks to avoid strange dogs, hazards, or triggers. For Your Cats: Visual Verification: I never leave a home without physically spotting your cat in their preferred zone to guarantee they are safe. Respectful Interaction: I let shy or independent cats set the pace, never forcing interaction or causing stress. Home & Trust Management: Manager-Level Cleanliness: I keep feeding stations pristine, wash food bowls daily, and strictly manage trash and litter box sanitation. Secure Lockups: I follow entry, alarm, and key management instructions flawlessly to protect your home. Real-Time Transparency: You will receive clear photo updates and a detailed status summary text during every single booking.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and caring for them has always been second nature to me. Over the years, I’ve also dog‑sat for friends and family giving me experience with different breeds, personalities and routines. Whether your pup loves long walks, belly rubs or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy and loved while you’re away. Because I work from home, pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, which means plenty of time for walks, play breaks, feeding and keeping an eye on your pet’s comfort. I build my work schedule around their needs so they get consistent attention and companionship instead of long stretches alone. Whether it’s a midday walk, extra snuggles or sticking to their usual routine, I’m able to give them steady, reliable care all week long. I have a quiet, calm and pet‑friendly home that’s perfect for animals who enjoy a peaceful environment. Since I don’t have any pets of my own, your dog gets my full attention and a stress‑free space with no competition for affection. I keep my home clean, safe and comfortable and I have a deck where pets can relax outside, enjoy some fresh air and soak up the sun.

About: I have experience caring for dogs of different ages and personalities, including my own. I’m especially comfortable with small breeds and senior dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I’ve cared for my own senior dog with health needs, including giving medication, keeping an eye on any changes, and making sure they’re comfortable and safe. That’s made me really detail-oriented and tuned in to each dog’s routine. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and I always follow instructions closely. Whether it’s a walk or a drop-in, I want your dog to feel calm, cared for, and happy, and for you to feel at ease too. Pet care fits well into my schedule, and I’m available for walks and drop-in visits throughout the week and on weekends. I’m able to plan around scheduled bookings and keep my availability updated so pet parents can count on consistent, dependable care. I provide attentive care in both my home and a client’s home, always following the pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions. This includes feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and administering medication if needed. I prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency, and make sure pets are not left alone longer than necessary. For walks, I focus on safe, structured outings that match each dog’s energy level and needs. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident and connected while they’re away.

“Tricia took great care of my fur babies on a last minute request and sent great photos of them!”

About: Ever since I was young I loved caring for Dogs, Cats, Rabbits, guinea pigs, and any other animal! I will train, care, play, and feed them! Pet care fits into my schedule because I do school online and work a part-time job as waitress at a senior living for three times a week! I will keep my eyes on them 24/7 of my time spent with them! I allow them to play around the house and always give them walks if provided to!

“Kimberly was a life saver. She quickly filled in when my original sitter fell through during my 3-week work trip. She sent photos and was extremely communicative. Couldn’t ask for a better sitter for my cat while I was traveling. Would definitely use her again.”

About: I’m a veterinary technician who loves caring for animals! I also have experience as a manager at a doggy daycare. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all kinds and always treat every animal with the same love and attention I’d give my own! I currently am a part time vet tech, I have a 6 month old sidekick so I have a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of time to stop in and give your cat the attention they deserve. I’m available throughout the week for drop-in visits and can work with your cat’s normal feeding and care routine. Whether they want playtime, cuddles, or prefer to silently judge me from across the room, I’m happy to follow their lead! I’ll care for your cat in their own home where they’re most comfortable and stick closely to the routine you provide. I’ll make sure food and water are fresh, litter is clean, doors are secure, and your cat is safe and accounted for. I’m also respectful of shy or nervous cats and won’t force interaction — I’m perfectly willing to earn their trust one treat at a time. And of course, you can expect updates and pictures so you know exactly how your tiny landlord is doing while you’re away. 🐱

“Jennifer is HIGHLY recommended for all your sitting needs. She knows dogs and has a great rapport with them. Additionally, it is very easy to contact Jennifer. She answers almost immediately.”

“Aletris was amazing! They were incredibly attentive and sweet with our kitty and went above and beyond our expectations. Aletris took the job very seriously and made sure nothing would get in their way of taking care of our fur baby, (even if that means resorting to biking to our house when their family needed their car)! We can’t express how happy we are to have found Aletris and I know our kitty felt the same way! Will definitely be hiring them again for future pet sitting needs!”

About: My partner and I have been dog sitting for five years. Prior to that, we both grew up with family dogs and are very familiar and comfortable with a wide variety of dogs and breeds. We are incredibly enthusiastic, loving, and kind towards all animals. A stay with us if fun for your pet and for us! We love going on walks, and we live in a very dog-friendly apartment complex/neighborhood. We hope you’ll have your furry friend come stay with us! I am dog-sitting full time and my wife, Kayla, works remotely from home most days. Together we give your dogs the utmost care and attention. Attentiveness is the most important thing for us when with pets. In our home, we make sure that we can see the dog playing at all times. We put items away that are not dog-friendly, and we clear out space for playing and downtime. On walks, we are always attentive to the dog and how they behave and interact with other people, dogs and other animals in the neighborhood. A stay with us is always fun for the dog, but we like to make sure that your pet is safe and cared for. We also value communication. You putting your pet in our care while you are away, and we understand the trust that it takes to leave a member of your family with us. We give as many updates as you’d like via messenger and numerous photos or videos throughout the day. We are always reachable and willing to let you know how your dog’s stay is going. I’m currently working remotely. I tutor part-time from home, but I’m almost always home and I make pet sitting a priority. I used to be a teaching assistant, so I am very reliable and used to being responsible for others’ loved ones. I live in a very safe apartment complex. The buildings look like town homes, it is away from the main roads, and the complex Is pet friendly with lots of grass areas for your little guy or girl to do their business. It’s a wonderful welcoming community. I have my own entrance to my apartment and all the dogs in the community are wonderful.

“Corinne is the best! Rocket is my little love muffin and it’s so nice knowing he’s getting taken care of when I have to work nights. She’s great!”

“Wendy did a fabulous job watching our two fur babies! Being out of the country I'm always frightened the AC will stop working for some odd reason, but she assured me that the house remained cool the entire time. Located in the same town as me, she could come to the house quickly if needed. The house was clean and tidy just like we left it. We'll definitely use her on our next trip!”

“Jennifer is so kind and easy to work with! I felt very comfortable leaving my two cats in her hands. Would definitely book again.”
