“Deanna is always extremely responsive, attentive, and an absolute delight. She’s our go to for when we are away and need Loki our dog to be taken care of. Extremely flexible and we highly recommend. Thank you, Deanna!!”
“Eilleen is AMAZING!!! Benji is our little rescue cutie! But he has days where he is a bit unpredictable- He is a cuddle bug on his own terms, can be moody and antisocial. As his "fun" aunt (I'm treat and playtime central haha) you would think he would jump for joy at the chance to take a walk with me but, that isn't the case :( He is very particular about who walks him and only let's his dad walk him. So on days dad is working overtime, I stress about how I will convince Benji to go outside. One Sunday he refused to go out they entire day, not one budge and just hid under the table. Dad was working and I was stressing! Well, Eilleen to the rescue! Upon arrival Benji greeted her at the door, like they were forever friends, hopping, tail wagging and cuddles! In amazement I watch Eilleen put kn his leash with out any hesitation from Benji and in a matter of minutes they were off on their walk together! I am so amazed by the instant connection they have and Eilleens impressive job of caring for him. We are so very thankful!! Thank you Eilleen!!!!!!! You are truly the BEST!!”
“Joseph was great and extremely communicative — he was very thoughtful with our older dog Cleo and took great care of her. He provided thorough updates and lots of photos which was great :)”
“Britany, Has been walking my 4-5 month old puppy for the last couple of weeks and we have been very happy with her services. For our meet& greet she asked about our pups routines, commands our pup knows, and how he should be rewarded. She has been reliable and Rider really enjoys her visits.”
“Rhea and Michael should be the first person booked in the Northern NJ area. We forgot to leave the device to get into the house today and they stuck around while I came home to let them in. Our previous dog walker from rover would have said they walked the dog and left. They go above and beyond every time. Simply the best!!!!!!”

I also had another neighbor who had a larger dog that I would walk and bathe. I have owned a wide variety of pets including dogs, rabbit, hermit crabs, cats and hamsters. I am a huge animal lover and will make any of the necessary accommodations for your pet! I am a college student who has a lot of free time to spend with your furry friend. When i’m not at school i am usually spending time with my 2 dogs, taking them on walks, hikes, swimming, etc. I get so much gratification from seeing a happy pet!

About: I love animals of all shapes and sizes! Since my childhood I've taken care of all kinds of animals from dogs and cats to fish and hermit crabs. As a current English Bulldog owner, I have experience across the spectrum from energetic dogs to more relaxed breeds. I've raised my own pets since puppyhood (just 8 weeks old!) and enjoy training through this stage, including all of its cuteness and rowdiness! Family often depends on me for dog-sitting and spending time with their pets, as I love to engage with all pets through play and staying active. I love getting to know new animals and cherishing their individual personalities! During the summer, I work-part time, leaving a lot of room for your pets! I am available during the week and weekends for things like boarding and walking. When I am on-campus at Rutgers University, I find myself available throughout the week between my class schedule for dog walking and drop-ins. Playing with dogs is the perfect de-stressor between classes! I am much more available during the weekends for pet-sitting. I would love to spend my free time with your pups! I have experience with many different breeds of both dogs and cats, ensuring a safe environment for your pets. I understand I will be entering their space and will always make sure they are the most comfortable first!
“I would highly recommend Christine! She was able to handle caring for our high-energy and quirky dog, Titus. I felt at ease seeing pictures of him so happy. Tituts loved her, and I will 100% book Christine in the future.”
“Brittany is new to walking our best boy but she’s really kind and accommodating. She makes everything easy. We appreciate her dealing with us and taking care of our Wally. Could not recommend enough. She’s awesome!”
About: Passionate pet sitter, adept at training, specializing in German Shepherds. From puppies to seniors, I transformed my reactive GSD into a loving companion, welcoming pitbulls and cats. Animal lover at heart! I thrive on a full-time remote work schedule, ensuring that my cherished animals are never left alone for more than 3 hours each day. While I may step out for appointments or errands, rest assured, weekends and holidays are exclusively devoted to their companionship. In my secure home, an 80ft driveway and a fenced yard ensure a safe haven. Two friendly dogs and two cats share this space happily, all within the welcoming walls of a spacious house.
About: I have had dogs my entire life from before I could remember to now. I’ve had special needs dogs, rescues, and pure breeds who require a little extra love. I’ve cared for senior dogs ( who are blind and deaf) and trained puppies successfully. Over all, I adore dogs of all kinds, shapes, and sizes! I can’t wait to adventure with your pup! I am an elementary school teacher. I am very affectionate and attentive when it comes to animals. I would love to walk and cuddle your pup all summer long! I have two very friendly dogs and a husband who adores pups just as much as I do! We have a very large fenced-in yard where your pup can get in their daily zoomies! We also have two sides of our house where, if necessary, your pup can have alone time with me and away from my other two pups (who can hang out with my husband). When it comes to caring for pets in your home, I will be sure to follow all routines you set. It’s important for a pup (especially one’s still learning) to have the same routines with or without their mom/dad present.
About: When I was little I had three cats, I now have a dog whom I care for. And for the last ten years I have cared for my neighbors cat and dog when they go away. I am a college student with free time on my hands and would love to spend it caring for your pet! I currently work part time and go to school full time, but I usually still have large amounts of time on my hands, and would love to spend it caring for your pet! On walks I make sure your pet gets plenty of time to sniff and fresh air, while following your preferences and avoiding unsafe areas. During drop on visits I will give your pet lots of attention, and give them plenty of food and water while following your instructions closely.

About: I have been taking care of dogs for my entire life, and currently have 2 of my own - a golden retriever and collie rescue.

I am currently doing pet care full time right now, so as long as I am not booked - I am available for you! Please reach out for availability. I have 2 of my own, so any pets I would be doing boarding for I require a brief meet and greet with the dogs to make sure everyone is happy and safe. Other than that, this is my full time job so I am home majority of the time!

Amanda Y.
“Amanda might love animals more than anyone I have ever met. She spoils every dog she sees and showers them with affection. The only problem you could ever have with Amanda caring for your dogs is her reluctance to leave them when she is done! She is responsible and caring, and will make sure that your pet gets whatever they need. You could not find a better person to care for your pet than Amanda.”
Marco L.
“I’ve had the pleasure of seeing firsthand just how much Marco genuinely cares for animals. Whether it’s going out of his way to greet every dog we see on walks, or taking time to understand each pet’s personality, his love for animals is obvious. He’s responsible, patient, and always makes sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. He’s also great at following routines, sticking to feeding or walking schedules, and communicating clearly—traits that make him a natural fit for pet sitting. I’ve watched him care for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments, and he always treats them like family. Any pet would be lucky to spend time with him!”

“Gaby is amazing with all pets. She was able to teach my dog how to shake and gave him an amazing walk. My dog is always excited to see her and it is really hard to teach him cause he has a really bad attention span.”
Kameron W.
“I used Kamie's Canine Services this summer to board my dog at her house for 9 nights. I felt so comfortable and I knew I left him in good hands after meeting Kamie and her husband. We did a meet and greet with them prior to our vacation. Ollie, right away, seemed happy and comfortable in his surroundings. There was a fenced in outside area and her home was clean and comfortable for Ollie. During his stay, Kamie kept in touch sending pictures and updates. When we picked Ollie up, he looked happy and well taken care of. I would definitely recommend Kamie's Canine Services and will be using her services again.”
