Dog Walking Pompton Lakes

About: Hi! Animals have always been important in my life. I grew up in Brooklyn feeding and befriending a feral cat colony in my backyard, so I started caring for animals at a young age and never looked back. I am the only person in my household who will be responsible for your pets! From 2014 to 2023 I worked as an LVT in a variety of clinic and hospital settings. I'm comfortable with subcutaneous injections (including fluid administration), wound care, administering medications, and generally any at-home treatments that your veterinarian would put in their discharge instructions (cleaning ears, changing a wound bandage, paw soaks, etc) If you have a dog or cat with special needs, including a senior pet, they already have a special place in my heart and I'd love to meet them. Over the years, I've done seasonal pet-sitting/dog-walking as well as caring for the pets of friends and family when needed. I'm a stay-at-home mom, cat butler, and chicken tender. My son started pre-K in September, so my availability during the week is typically 8:30-4, with some flexibility. I can also be available for evening visits/walks and specific weekends if booked in advance In my home, dogs and cats are allowed on furniture. We have 3 acres for leashed walks, as well as plenty of safe neighborhoods and parks nearby. Our home has a separate downstairs living space with its own bathroom and doors to the outside. I've raised 8 chickens on our property so far and last year my husband and I adopted two female Sphynx kittens, Nosy and Yaya.

“Alexandra is incredibly kind and gentle. She was so patient with our Lani, who’s scared of just about everything, and really respected our request to keep greetings and goodbyes calm and low-key to help prevent separation anxiety. She takes her time, used the treats for getting boots on!) And gives Lani the full walk time without rushing. We feel very comfortable with her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive walker.”

About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life. Often watch others dogs over night, or come by for walks and feedings when owners are away. Good with animals of all sizes. Currently my schedule is very open, available in the mornings and afternoons for walks or visits. Can also be available to watch dogs overnight if needed. My home is an apartment right next to several parks. Perfect for smaller dogs or big dogs who need exercise outside. Can also travel to you.

“Sarah was great! We needed a dog walker last minute for our elderly dog and she was available to walk him. He’s a little grumpy so he was hesitant with a new person, but once the leash was on he warmed up to her. Would definitely book Sarah again!”

About: What sets me apart is my patience, compassion, and ability to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from tiny puppies to large breeds and senior dogs. I’m comfortable administering medication, following specific care routines, and helping puppies learn basic skills through simple training and positive reinforcement. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and different needs, so I take the time to get to know each pet and make sure they receive personalized care and attention. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities. I want every pet parent to feel confident knowing their furry family member is in caring, responsible, and loving hands! ❤️🐶 As a college student with a genuine love for animals, I’m working toward making pet care my full-time career. I have a flexible schedule and am currently available on Mondays from 8:00 AM–12:00 PM and 2:00–5:00 PM, Wednesdays 11:00AM-12:00PM and 2:00PM-5:00PM, and Fridays until 5:00PM. I’m also available on Saturdays and Sundays, with Tuesdays and Thursdays opening up for services soon! 🐾 I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits depending on the day. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive, and loving care while making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and comfortable. I look forward to building lasting relationships with pets and their families and giving every furry friend the care and attention they deserve! ❤️🐶🐱 Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! 🐾❤️ For my 20-, 30-, and 40-minute dog walks, I make sure pets are securely leashed, closely supervised, and walked at a pace that suits their age, size, and energy level. I pay attention to their surroundings and always prioritize their safety while giving them time to exercise, explore, and enjoy themselves. For my 30-minute drop-in visits, I provide attentive, loving care based on your pet’s individual needs. This can include feeding, refreshing their water, bathroom breaks, playtime, companionship, and following any special instructions you provide. I’m also comfortable administering medication when needed. I respect your home, follow your instructions carefully, and understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. I’m happy to provide updates and photos during visits so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make every visit a positive experience and treat your pet with the same love, patience, and care I would give my own! 🐶🐱💕

“Amber has been great with weekly walks for our large but nervous dog. She has been patient and let him warm up at his own pace with lots of feedback as to how he’s doing from day to day. I would highly recommend her for any of your pet care needs.”

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! I am currently a part-time student in college, leaving a lot of room for your pets! I am available during the week and weekends for things like boarding and walking. 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!

“Vanessa was great with our dog. She was easy to communicate with, sent updates, and our dog was all wags with her. Will definitely use her again.”

About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. Growing up my family and I have adopted 3 dogs. I absolutely love working with dogs - big, small, old, hyper, I’m your gal! I have a couple years of experience working at a doggy day care as well as some dog bathing services. I’m a junior currently attending Ramapo College. I commute to class and am available for multiple days a week. I’m usually always available on the weekends! I have a fenced yard for my dog but she is not the friendliest. I tend to bring her to the dog park where she gets along with other dogs in a bigger/more open area.

“Phenomenal dog walker. Very quick to respond and provides great care for my dog. He really enjoys her walks.”

About: I got a bichon frise when I was 5 and he lived until he was 13. He was obviously the family dog but I really took on the role of feeding and walking him when I was older. I have helped train and raise both of my brothers dogs, one being a 12 pound cavachon and the other being a 45 pound hound mix. So I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes. I have also watched family friends' dogs in the past which included boarding for a few days, daily walks and feedings, and also can help with some light training like sit, paw, roll over etc. I absolutely love dogs and would take great care of any dog if given the chance and responsibility!

“Jill is really nice, takes great care of our dogs and is good at communicating! Highly recommend her!”

About: I am a full-time pet sitter who is reliable, detail-oriented, and funny. I have been providing professional pet care services for dogs and cats for the past 12 years. I am available for both short-notice and regularly scheduled walks. Should you require overnight visits, I am also available to provide care for your pet in your home. Our pet care relationship begins with a phone call or e-mail to discuss your pet's needs. After that, we will have a consultation to meet and further discuss the particulars of your pet's needs and my visits with your pet. You can rest assured that your pet is well cared for because after each visit I will leave a note detailing how your pet was during the visit. For overnight visits, I will e-mail or text the details of the visit to you. I look forward to speaking with you and caring for your pet! I am a full time pet sitter so I am always available to give your pets the one on one love and attention they deserve. I have been providing overnight care for pets for twelve years. When pets are kept in their home environment they’re much more comfortable than in a boarding facility.

About: My 10 year old and I love it when your babies enjoy a swim in the lake in the summer and/or a walk around the lake with us. Rest assured your fur babies will be happy and healthy while you are away. Our standard poodle is my daughter’s best girl. We go for walks at least once per day around the lake (1.6 miles around). Sometimes we even go more than once and we all get a good workout in! We usually care for dogs here at home, however, I am open to caring for your fur babies at your house, if you prefer! Let me know!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and personalities since I was 10 years old. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and give lots of love to their pets. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every dog like my own. I currently work part-time and am also a full-time student, so I’m available on weekends only, from 7am–7pm, for dog walking. I love spending time outdoors and making sure every walk is safe, fun, and full of care and attention. I have a fully fenced yard and two friendly, well-socialized dogs who love meeting new friends. I always supervise playtime and can crate your dog if needed. I keep a calm, clean, and safe environment so your pet feels comfortable and secure.

“his dog walker was absolutely amazing! She did such an awesome job, and my dog absolutely loved her. She was reliable, trustworthy, and always kept me updated with photos, which gave me such peace of mind. It’s so important to find someone you can truly trust with your pet, and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better. I highly recommend her and can’t say enough wonderful things about her! 🐾❤️”

“Nicole took the time to really gauge what Cocoa wanted each day. Some days all she wants is to play or get belly rubs and others she wants a long walk around the neighborhood. She always sent a report on how Cocoa was and what they did and included great pictures of her playing or getting pets. I couldn't recommend Nicole enough!”

About: Hi’ I have been a dog caretaker for over a year now, and have grained invaluable experience there. My goal was to become a vet, so I’ve already taken special care to understand the needs of the individual needs of each pet in my care. I’ve been the first choice when it comes to watching people’s pets for a long time now. I love them like my own :) As a part time student, Rover is a great way to schedule during the time I’m not in school so I can give your pet the undivided attention they deserve. I have a fenced in yard, and a sweet pup of my own that would absolutely adore the company of another dog! They’d have a blast.
