About: I’ve had the absolute joy of being a cat and dog lover since birth.I got my first cat at 2, Rodger and had my childhood dog, Elvis, at 6. As an adult I have two amazing cats, Franny and Watts and take care of 14+ cats in the community. I love taking care of senior cats and cats of all need levels. I work a normal 8:30-5 schedule and some weekends. Able to check in the evening and mornings, use to early morning checks and evening hour+ hangs. In my home cats get daily litter scoop, meds, two feedings a day and ample cuddles. I have cats with severe anxiety and require more care. When watching other’s cats I treat them like they are my own and give them all the love they deserve.

Although I am always willing to learn about your pet and how to take care of your little friend, or big. I know what to do in all situations, bad or good (sadly the bad ones happen sometimes) I have been taking care of pets since I was 4! that's because my family and I love to rescue, over time I have learned how to love all sorts of animals, with soft hands and a big heart, I hope to feel at home with the little guys that make your house a home <3 I hope to see you soon! I work full time overnights from 11pm-7am I usually have time in the mornings before I rest to do walks and play time, of course I do wake up through the day to allow potty time, and food time. Lots of walks, snuggles, playtime and potty time when they need it. When my pets are sick I of course administer fluids as needed, medications and a comfy place to rest near a door to go potty.

“Samantha was great! Very communicative and took great care of our bunny.”
About: Residents of Glenwood Apartments in Old Bridge have priority! Until JUNE 16th I am NOT available for weekday mornings! AFTERNOONS ONLY! [ABOUT ME] I was a puppy raiser for The Seeing-Eye between 2005 and 2016. My family raised 6 puppies starting at 8 weeks old, so I am well-versed in both puppy care and training. As puppy raisers it is our job to socialize our puppies to new environments and teach them basic obedience and manners as they will need to be well-behaved in public for their future blind partner. I also formerly worked at the family dog training school. I've lived with primarily German Shepherds, as well as a pitbull and collie. Though I have met and understand a wide variety of dog breeds. My animal experience doesn't stop at dogs & cats, either! I've personally owned or cared for rats, gerbils, mice, guinea pigs, freshwater fish, snakes, lizards and even horses!
About: I grew up always having a pet in my childhood home, cats and dogs, and have much experience taking care of my own and others pets. In high school my main way of earning money was taking care of my aunts 2 German shepherds on a daily basis after school. Since then I have pet sat countless friends and families fur babies. I have been a pet mom since I was 18 (12 years) and now have 4 of my own, 2 dogs and 2 cats. I am also a (human) mom of a 1 year old girl. I have cared for 160 lb Rottweilers to 2 week old kittens to horses, chickens and goats. I have been told I am naturally nurturing and I have always found caring for animals to come easily and to be extremely enjoyable. I consider myself very experienced with all sorts of animal needs. I am strong advocate of animal rights and treat animals with the same respect I would a person. Outside of Rover I have been a self employed small business owner in the service industry since 2019. I pride myself in my customer service and communication skills. I am always very responsible and reliable because my livelihood depends on it. If you book with me you will be very pleased with my laid back yet capable attitude. I fully believe in my ability to give you and your furbabies excellent service :) I work part time an I am available for dog/cat sitting on Monday’s and Tuesdays during the day. During the week I am the sole caregiver of my 1 year old daughter and she will be with me while taking care of your pets. She has been exposed to our animals since birth and has learned how to interact with our dogs and cats. She is gentle and kind to animals. Child friendly dogs and cats are a must. My home sits on a 1/2 acre and I have a fenced in yard. My pets have free range of my home apart from our bedrooms which stay closed while we are not in them. I do have the option to keep my pets separated from yours if that’s preferred or needed.

Taylor M.
“Wow. Wow. Wow. Taylor went above and beyond my expectations. My dog is VERY old and VERY high needs. He is a 15 year old Border Collie with extreme back leg issues but the typical BC desire to run/walk for as long as possible. He can’t get to a standing position on his own and some times falls when he goes potty. Taylor was so incredibly sweet to him. She let him take his time on their walks. She made sure he was snuggly and warm and had his food and drink close to him at all times. Taylor really was more than I could have asked for as a dog sitter. Senior handicap dogs are very difficult and Taylor treated him with all the love and respect. Can’t recommend her enough.”
