House Sitting Roseland

“Brian dog sat in our home for the week and was absolutely wonderful! He kept us updated with messages and pictures throughout our trip, which gave us such peace of mind. He was incredibly attentive, caring, and loving with our pup. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Glad we booked with him again!”

“I honestly can’t rave enough about how kind, patient and caring she is with our wild boxer pup. This is the 2nd time we book her and we are so happy with the amount of updates she shared with us.”

“We recently met and hired Danuta to overnight sit for our pets for several days. Each day we received updates and pictures throughout the day to let us know how our babies were doing. It was so reassuring to know that they were happy and content while we were gone. She took them outside very often to play fetch and for exercise. Our pets bonded with Danuta very fast. Danuta followed all of our instructions and she asked questions if needed. We returned to a very happy house of pets and our house was nice and clean just the way we left it. We will most certainly rebook Danuta and I would highly recommend her to anyone that needs pet care. She is very caring, friendly, and trustworthy. Thank you Danuta! We appreciate all that you did to make sure our pets were happy and active.”

About: I grew up surrounded by animals in Portugal, and my family had Serra da Estrela Mountain Dogs, two German Shepherds and a cat. Living with large guardian breeds taught me how to read a dog's mood, respect their space and stay calm when they're alert or excited. I'm comfortable with big, strong dogs, and with cats too. I also spent two years as an au pair in the US and often work with children, so I'm used to patience, routines and things not going to plan. I'm based in Montclair and available for walks, drop-in visits and house sitting. work part time I have free the most of the days from 9am to 4 pm, and after 8 pm so I have flexible hours during the day for walks and playtime. I'm also available on weekends, including overnight stays. Tell me your dog's routine and I'll fit around it adapt to your dog and your home. We'll agree on the schedule, feeding and any special needs beforehand, and I follow your instructions closely. If anything feels off, I'll contact you right away.

“Catherine is the best. She’s dependable, flexible, and just plain lovely. I’m continuously amazed at how she puts my anxiety-ridden pup at ease. I’ve been a loyal customer since our first meeting, and hope she’ll continue dog-sitting for a long time to come!”

About: I have been taking care of my 2 cats for 8 years. And I take care of several dogs when my friends are out of town for about 6 months I can play with your pets during pet sitting, to prevent them feel too bored.

I played fuzzy balls with the everyday almost. Sometimes bring them outside in a cat bag

About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life! I grew up around dogs and currently have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with dogs. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’m happy to give each dog the care and attention they need. I’m also comfortable following individual routines, instructions, and personalities because I know every dog is different. My goal is for every pup in my care to feel safe, happy, comfortable, and loved — and for their owners to have complete peace of mind while they’re away! 🐾❤️ I have open and flexible availability throughout the week, making it easy to accommodate different schedules and routines. I’m available for weekday walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting, and I’m happy to work around your dog’s needs and preferred routine. Whether your pup needs a quick midday walk, some extra playtime, or companionship while you’re away, I’m flexible and happy to help! I care for every pet as if they were my own. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions for feeding, walks, medication, playtime, and bedtime routines. When caring for pets in their home, I’m respectful of your space and make sure your pet stays on their normal schedule. I provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection while also giving them the space they need to feel comfortable. Most importantly, I want you to have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and in loving hands.

About: Growing up fostering rescue dogs from 11 hour rescue taught me patience, responsibility, and how to care for dogs with different personalities, needs, and backgrounds. I work full-time and work from home on Fridays, so I’m very flexible and available Friday through Sunday. I’d love to spend that extra time caring for your pup! I treat every pet like family, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for. I follow their routines closely, give them plenty of attention and exercise, and always respect each pet’s individual needs.

“Right from the very first message interaction, Mimi made me feel assured, confident and so happy we found her to take care of our two adorable cats. They hadn’t been left alone overnight for a few years so we decided to opt for housesitting and we couldn’t be more pleased! Mimi came over for an introductory meeting and both cats took to her right away! Her gentle and caring manner comes across immediately and our usually skittish cats felt safe and right at home with her. We sat talking about their routines while they rubbed up against her leg and purred loudly while she pet them! Mimi is thorough in her preparation, careful in reviewing and following instructions and so thoughtful. Our older cat takes a little CBD treat each night and Mimi easily got him to take it so that both he and our other cat were just calm and peaceful when we arrived home. Thankfully our cats don’t require any medication, but I know if they did she would deftly and properly administer it with care. Mimi also took care of our home as if it was her own! Our house was left in perfect condition! Throughout her stay, Mimi offered her well wishes that we have the best trip ever and she made sure we did because she provided updates and photos so we felt confident and informed. And those photos! You could just tell from the way the kitties were curled up waiting for their belly rubs that they had the best time ever! Mimi is now our go-to cat sitter and we began lining up next stays even before this trip was done! She’s simply the best! On a personal note, I’m so happy to have met this wonderful woman who radiates joy and sincerity. She’s truly a blessing, a genuinely caring person and we are so grateful she’s a part of our lives! We love Mimi and we know if you book her you will too!”

About: Hi pet parents! My mother and I have lived in Springfield our entire lives, and we've been caring for dogs in our home since 2017. We've loved every one of them. We keep our groups small, so each pup gets plenty of attention and someone is always around to keep an eye on them. We'll also send daily photo updates, so you never have to wonder how they're doing. We have a large quarter acre fenced yard connected to our home, and the dogs go out together about 4-5 times a day for around 30 minutes each. We adjust that based on your dog's age and the weather. Dogs of all sizes are welcome. We've added custom gates inside our home, so bigger and smaller dogs can have their own space when needed, and older pups can get some peace and quiet. I grew up with a German Shepherd and a Rottweiler, and now we have the complete opposite: a small, shy Sheltie we adopted from one of our past clients. Living with her has made us especially good with nervous pups, and we're also comfortable with seniors, puppies, and dogs who need medication. I've been crazy about animals since I was a kid and was sure I'd be a vet one day. Caring for other people's dogs turned out to be the next best thing. I'm pet first aid certified, and we sanitize our home daily to keep everyone clean and healthy. Come by for a meet and greet, check out the yard, and let your pup sniff around. I'll ask lots of questions about their routine and personality so they feel right at home. Send us a message anytime. We'd love to meet you both! 🐾 We do this full time, so someone's always home with your dog. We're in Springfield, right next to Summit and Short Hills, so drop off is quick and easy. Short notice is totally fine. If a work trip comes up or you decide to head down the shore for the weekend, just message us and we'll let you know right away if we have room. We'll keep your dog on the same feeding and med schedule they have at home. Our home opens onto a large, fully fenced and attached quarter-acre yard, so playtime is always secure. Inside, we've added custom gates so bigger and smaller dogs can have their own space, and older pups can get some peace and quiet. We are pet first aid and Fear Free Certified®, and we sanitize our home daily to keep everyone healthy. Our own dog is a shy little Sheltie we adopted from a past client, and living with her has made us especially good with nervous pups. We're also comfortable with seniors, puppies, and dogs who need medication. You'll get photo updates every day, and we'd love to have you over for a meet and greet so your pup can sniff around the yard first.

“Amazing! My pup misses her already.”

“Amara was amazing! She was so great with our senior dog Ginger - she really cares and wanted to make sure it was the best possible experience for Ginger. And it was! Ginger loved her. ❤️❤️❤️ And so did we! And, to boot, I’m pretty sure she left our house more clean than she found it! Haha. Amazing. Highly recommend her. We will for sure be using her again!”
