About: Hi, I’m Ev :) I enjoy collecting vinyls, hiking, and cooking. I have experience in dog and cat sitting. I consistently dog-sit a beautiful Beagle named Felix, whom I love and treat as if he were my dog. He is turning 11 in a few weeks, and I have been dog-sitting him since he was 3 years old. There are a few photos in my profile with Felix. I celebrate his birthday every year and spend some holidays with him as I have developed a close bond with him. I have more time now, and I would love to expand my services to more people around northern New Jersey and care for more animals. I have my own 4-legged baby at home named Mango; he is also pictured in my profile, the small little blond dog. He is a Peruvian Inca Orchid mix rescue from Peru; he's really sweet, trained, and is friendly with other animals; he just likes to sniff them first :) Under my care, your dog will be given plenty of attention and love. I work from home, so I can be with your pet all day. I also have a fenced-in yard, so your dog can have as many potty breaks as needed or to simply enjoy the outdoors. I would walk your pet twice a day, morning and night, for a 20 minute walk minimum; if the weather is nice, then it extends to 30 minutes each time sometimes even an hour. They will be let out multiple times a day for potty breaks. I provide a playful environment for any dog; I have plenty of toys and treats for them. I also have a fenced-in large yard so that they have plenty of space to run around. I am also very cautious and observant when having a dog at the house or walking them; they will be supervised at all times.

About: I've grown up around MANY cats and a dog most of my life. I’ve also helped out my family and friends were taking care of their fur babies when they’re on vacation. I currently work a 9 to 5 but I am available before or after that time. I can also stop by in the middle of the day. I’m also completely free on weekends! I live alone now, but I grew up living with anywhere from 3 to 9 cats, 1 dog, 2 birds who are rescues that (as you can imagine) have very different personalities. We had a set routine for them which I believe gave them enough stability and consistency to let them flourish and be comfortable in the spaces we shared. My family and I made it a priority to keep our cats healthy, happy, and well taken care of.

About: When your dogs are with me, I'd be pleased to snap pictures or films for you! Their water dish will never run out. Depending on your distance and the cost and location, I can come pick the animal and drop it off. Meet-and-greets are only welcome at my house. I'm limited to bathing. I am capable of giving small to medium-sized pets a bath. Large pets can only take baths in the spring and summer. If it's necessary, I can help with bathing for ten or more dollars. Frequently, it varies based on my schedule and what I'm doing. Do not hesitate to ask me; we can resolve the issue together :) ! Please take note before scheduling, I do require a photo of current vaccinations, including rabies. To help me keep in mind , please remember to bring a list of your dog's characteristics. Kindly provide me with your emergency contact details. Please enter the details for your Rover card. Please provide me with any information I require in order to provide them with the best care possible and ensure their happiness while staying with me. Safety is always my top priority, and the animals will constantly be supervise. It's ideal if I start with an animal daycare before I make a reservation with you so that I can see how things function with your pet. I'm looking forward to speak with you!

While living at home, I have been taking care of 2 dogs, 2 cats, 4 fish, 1 hamster, and 10 chickens. I hope you choose me to fulfill all your pet’s needs!

Feel free to reach out and ask for an updated schedule! I am a gentle caretaker who is willing to take care of even the most rowdy animals. Tell me how you take care of your pets and I’ll do my best to match it!

Morgan was an absolute gem. I wish I could give her more than 5 stars. I booked her for dog walks last minute while I was already out of town and my sister with little kids was watching my dog but struggling to do walks. Not only was Morgan prompt with responding, she was responsible and thoughtful. A great communicator. My dog Bolognese loved her. She even spent time one night helping my sister in finding her dog who had gotten out. I cannot speak highly enough of her, she’s the best.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Prospect Park. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
