House Sitting in River Edge

“Alexandra was a wonderful sitter for our home and pets. Animals seemed very comfortable and happy in her company and she sent lovely updates daily. She was very responsive and accommodating and took excellent care of our home. Thanks for everything, Alexandra!”

“Stephanie loved my girls as if they were her own. They were well cared for, our home was perfect and as we met on the way out she has a calming and relaxing smile. Stephanie will be one of our family now ??”

“The dog was happy and the place was standing. In the end that's all that matters but a decent person who communicates well with an honest smile on their face and a personality to match makes the whole thing run smoother.”

“Keka is very patient and caring when it comes to pet handling. My dog Hendrix (a Doberman mix) can be a bit of a handful sometimes (he's large and energetic) but Keka was able to handle and take good care of him. Delightful to be around and kind.”

“We could not be more grateful for An’s incredible care for our boys while we were away for our wedding and honeymoon! With Smokey being a special needs senior dog, it was quite an ask as his car varies daily, but having A stay with him and Quentin at our house put us at such ease. We got regular updates, photos and videos along with detailed notes on any potential health instances for our old boy, and we just could not imagine them being in better care. Thank you so much, An, for giving our boys so much love and care while we were away!”

“AMAZING!! Booked Khayla for a two night overnight in my home to watch our dog and cat. Came over ahead of time and took notes as I gave her the run down on their daily care and even went for a short walk with us. Incredibly communicative, letting me know when she arrived or left the house. Sent photos multiple times a day. Going to rebook her as soon as I am done with this review!”

About: I’ve had experience taking care of dogs since I was 13. Aside from caring from my own dog, I have care for the dogs (and cats!) of family and friends, walking them, dog sitting at their homes, or dropping for walks, feeding and play time. I’ve had plenty of experience working with puppies and senior dogs, particularly with my own dog who experienced many health issues in his older years. I work from home, and have a relatively flexible schedule. That being said, my availability is largely after 3pm during the weekdays or mornings and afternoons on Saturdays, but I am able to drop in visits and walks during the day as well, schedule allowing! I typically care for pets in the pet parents home based on the pet parents guidelines. I like to ask pet parents as many questions as possible to make sure I try to maintain as close a routine as possible for the pet while they are in my care. This include walking and feeding schedules, how much playtime and what kind of playtime is allowed/encouraged, and any other specifics I should know about how to care for the pet (medication, where they sleep, how they interact with other dogs/pets, etc.)

“Cindy was absolutely wonderful! She helped out after a sitter cancelled last minute, came early to meet our nervous pup, and stayed a half hour longer just to make sure she got her full time outside. I couldn’t be more thrilled and highly recommend her!”

“Erica grew up in a family that loved dogs and cats. Her parents bred and showed boxers. Her brother is a veterinarian. She loves dogs and cats and is a kind and responsible young woman.”

“Andrew was an absolute gem of a dog sitter for Nahla! Over the course of three weeks, he provided exceptional care and attention to our beloved husky. Nahla seemed not just well cared for, but genuinely happy under Andrew's watch. His professionalism, reliability, and evident love for animals were truly reassuring. We were kept updated with regular photos and messages, which meant a lot to us while we were away. It's clear that Andrew goes above and beyond, treating each pet with the same love and care as if they were his own. We couldn't be more grateful for the peace of mind he provided us during our time apart from Nahla. Highly recommended!”

“Taking care of our elderly dog, especially with his medical needs and quirks, can be quite challenging. Finding a sitter who can handle him properly is no easy task. Bryndon, however, exceeded all our expectations. He showed remarkable patience, excellent communication, and provided top-notch care for our beloved Francis. Regular photo updates reassured us, and Bryndon made sure Francis was as comfortable as possible. Without a doubt, Bryndon is the best sitter you'll find. Highly recommended.”

“She was very attentive with the dogs. Always reached out if there were any questions with feeding or walking. Followed instructions well. My dogs trust her, so I trust her as well. Reaching out to her often when needed to watch my dogs.”

About: From puppyhood to the golden years, I've cherished every moment alongside dogs and cats. Starting my journey in pet care at just 12 years old, I've developed a deep understanding and a passionate approach to both playful pups and serene seniors. My hands-on experience ranges from raising and training my own rescue dog to mastering agility training. Whether it's managing energetic puppies or providing gentle care for senior dogs, my lifelong dedication ensures your pet's needs are met with love and expert attention. Let me bring the joy and expertise of a lifetime with dogs to your furry family member's day! Working from home two days a week and having a brief 30-minute commute allows me ample flexibility. My typical work hours are from 7 AM to 3 PM, so I'm available in the early mornings, late afternoons, and evenings to ensure your pet gets the attention and exercise they need. On my work-from-home days, I'm even more available and can provide frequent walks, playtime, and supervision. This schedule allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care, making sure your furry friend feels loved and attended to even when you're away. In every pet care session, whether in my home or yours, I prioritize a safe, clean, and welcoming environment that meets the unique needs of each pet. In my home, I ensure that all areas accessible to pets are secure and free of hazards, and I maintain a routine that includes regular cleaning and sanitization. I also tailor the space to accommodate any special requirements your pet might have, such as secure, quiet resting areas for senior dogs or dedicated play areas for energetic puppies. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your space and privacy, adhering strictly to your guidelines and routines. I focus on maintaining the normal environment that your pet is accustomed to, minimizing stress and ensuring they feel comfortable and secure in my presence. Trust is paramount, so I keep you updated with regular communication and photos of our time together, so you feel connected and reassured about your pet’s care and well-being.

“Sasha has been an amazing pet lover since she was a young girl. She has always been passionate about helping animals feel safe and loved. I guarantee anyone that she will genuinely love and care for your pet as she has a heart of gold. Any animal can sense how sincere and loving she is.”

“Daniella was so amazing with my yorkie Mr. Bubbles ! He is very energetic and needs a lot of attention, Daniella was able to keep up and give him his daily exercise, food, and was pretty good with cleaning him up when he got a little dirty in the rain. I highly recommend her to anyone she will treat your pup as if it were her own.”

“Tatiana is so great with my dogs - she treats them like they are her own and they love her. I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants their dog well looked after!”

“Cheryl was fantastic with communication and care for my two doodles. We asked for overnight stays since the second doodle is still a puppy and not yet potty trained. I loved the photo and video updates. Cheryl was very communicative and asked great questions. Looking forward to reaching out to her again for future trips.”

“Nima is a close friend of mine and my dogs Arrow and Milo always have fun and feel comfortable with him. Ive trusted him to watch them for hours and days, I even catch them all sleeping together, Nima is so gentle and kind with them as he will be with your dogs/pets.”

“Niki is amazing with animals and really cares for animals as if they were her own. Niki is gentle with animals and will make sure they are safe.”

“I've known Laura M. for most of her life. When she was growing up she had 2 dogs, and she has a dog now. Laura has taken care of my dog when I was away or just gone for an entire day. She is very patient and kind and understands that dogs have different personalities. Laura is compassionate and kind and understands how important a dog is to their family. She has worked with children and interacted with parents, which is similar to dogs and their owners. Laura would be an awesome pet sitter.”
