“I highly recommend Charlie as a dog sitter! He took wonderful care of our grandma Carlee over the busy 4th of July weekend. At 15, Carlee is very low maintenance but has some special needs. Charlie was attentive to all of them and we especially appreciated seeing her so comfortable and cozy in the updates he provided whenever we requested them. We weren't able to respond immediately to early questions about her care, but it was clear that Charlie had everything under control. When we returned home, Carlee was safe, happy, and clearly well-cared for. That's all that truly matters, and we're so grateful for Charlie's excellent service!”

“Siara was lovely and we will absolutely have her back. Even though it was her first time taking care of our two large pups and she was plagued with frequent storms and an unexpected limp, she handled each challenge with grace and communicated with us well! Highly recommend!”

About: I cared for my yellow Labrador, Sparky, for 12 years. From puppyhood to his senior years, our daily walks, playtime, and belly rubs were some of my favorite ways to connect and spend quality time together. Over the years, friends, family members and neighbors have also trusted me to care for their pets while they were away. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or providing companionship during vacations, I’ve always treated every pet like my own, with patience and love. Your pet’s safety, comfort and happiness are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable and caring looking after your furry family member, and I’m here to provide that peace of mind. I work full time during the week, so I’m available for walks after 5pm on weekdays and anytime on weekends. I am also available for house visits and stays from Wednesday evenings after I get out of work through Sunday evenings. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with the same respect and care I would my own. I understand how important it is to maintain your pet’s routine in a familiar environment, and I always aim to create a calm, comfortable, and safe experience. During visits, I follow your instructions closely, ensure your pet is fed, exercised, and given plenty of attention, and keep you updated with regular check-ins. Daily walks were one of my favorite bonding activities with my dog, Sparky, so I truly understand how important they are for both physical health and mental stimulation. Whether your pup loves a leisurely stroll or a more energetic walk, I tailor each outing to their pace and personality. Safety is my top priority. I make sure the leash is secure, stay alert to surroundings making sure it is a safe area to walk in, and follow your dog’s routine and preferences. I make sure walks are not only safe but also enjoyable, giving your dog a chance to explore, exercise and return home happy and relaxed.

“Nathalia was great!! She took great care of our cat while we were away for a long weekend. She left the place neat & tidy as well! Will definitely be booking here again.”

“Yong is awesome and our fur babies Jupiter, Leo and Lia absolutely love him. Yong is very patient with our babies and took great care of them while we were out on vacation. Yong messaged us pictures everyday and kept us updated. We were at peace during our vacation because of how Yong took care of our babies. Yong also offered additional support watering my plants.”

About: I’ve had my dog, Winston, for 10 year's. My family is usually busy, so when i’m home i make sure to walk him at least once a day. I’ve watched a few of my friends’ dogs and cats as well, and have walked multiple dogs from my neighborhood. I am a graduate student at MSU and I commute from Nutley, so I get home fairly earlier from class. The first thing I do when I get home is take my dog on a walk. I can crate dogs, take them out, feed them, play with them, show them love, and just spend some quality time with them! I always make sure to respect boundaries though and read their body signals when they need space.

About: I started working with animals at 18, from dog grooming to caring for friends’ pets. Over time, I learned that every animal has its own personality and needs, and that patience and compassion are key to gaining their trust. Now, as a proud mom of two dogs, my love for animals has only grown stronger, and it inspires me to treat every pet with the same level of care I give my own. currently work at a beauty salon from Tuesday to Saturday, but I have a flexible schedule, especially from Tuesday to Thursday. I’m fully available on Mondays. From Tuesday to Thursday, I can care for your little ones in the mornings or after 5:00 p.m. Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays are a bit more limited for me, but with advance planning, I’m happy to help. I can take them on walks, assist with feeding, or keep them company at night if they’re home alone. I adapt with love, commitment, and responsibility to their needs. I provide a calm, safe environment with lots of love and patience. I can care for your pet in your home or visit for walks, feeding, and companionship. I’m flexible, respectful of routines, and treat every fur baby like family.

“Sean was great with Asher and took wonderful care of him! He sent some pictures to keep me up to date and was a good communicator. I certainly recommend him and will reach out again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs since childhood. I have almost a decade of dog walking and pet sitting experience. I know how important animals are to their owners and treat them as such. Currently, I am only doing pet sitting and dog walking as my full time job so I have a lot of time to take care of your pet’s needs. I babysit small animals at my home but bigger animals I go to the client’s home due to lack of space at my home for bigger animals. I also find that it helps the pet get use to me if I am in their environment .

About: I've loved animals my whole life and have been around cats in one way or another for most of my life. I grew up with multiple cats and I've been taking care of my cat Cole since adopting her in 2018 as a kitten. I've been volunteering at a cat shelter for several years as a socializer and love visiting as many cats as I can when I'm there (I always stay longer than my shift). I love them dearly, always want what's best for them, and would treat your cat with the same care concern I'd treat for my own. I'd be happy to provide drop-in visits for feedings/etc or to provide your cat with some play/social time! I love meeting new cats and taking in their unique quirks! While I've had a lot more exposure to felines, I'd also happily walk/spend time with your dog. I've had a lot of good experiences with them as well - me and my landlady's dog are good pals! I'm between jobs at the moment, so I am fairly flexible in terms of availability with some notice. Sunday is my day for volunteering, though I can potentially swap my shift in an urgent situation. I'm happy to arrange for shorter/longer visits on single/recurring basis. Can assist with feedings, playtime or just hang out and provide them a loving lap! Also happy to provide photo/video updates of your fur babies to help put your mind(s) at ease!

About: With years of hands-on animal care experience, I treat every pet like family, from playful pups to shy cats and everything in between. I specialize in drop-in visits that give your pets the perfect balance of love, attention, and routine, so they’re happy and stress-free while you’re away. Reliable, compassionate, and detail-oriented, I go the extra mile to make tails wag and whiskers twitch. As a stay-at-home mom, I have the flexibility to give pets the time and attention they deserve throughout the day. My open schedule means I can work around your pet’s routine, whether that’s a morning feeding, mid-day play session, or evening drop-in. Your pets won’t be squeezed into a busy workday; they’ll be part of a calm, consistent environment where their needs come first. I understand that letting someone into your home to care for your pet is a big decision. You can count on me to treat your space with respect and your pet with love, as if they were my own. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to keeping both your home and your furry family member safe, secure, and cared for at all times.

About: Hi my name is Delaney and I love animals! I am passionate about caring for them and enjoy their company. I ride horses and have a pet gecko. I have taken care of dogs before and know that each one has different needs. I one day hope to take care of animals on a larger scale, owning my own rescue for abused and mistreated animals. Watching these dogs wouldn’t be just for the money, but for my own pleasure because dogs bring me so much joy and nothing makes me happier than knowing I have done a job well done. I promise your dog will be in good hands and well taken care of. No one is as suited to do this job than me. I am currently a full time student at Marymount Manhattan College, and plan my pet sitting assignments with my class schedule in mind. I ensure that I have sufficient time between classes and assignments to meet the needs of the pets I'm responsible for. I understand that pet care needs can vary, and I'm committed to maintaining a flexible schedule that aligns with the needs of pet owners. I can adjust my availability to fit around my school classes and other academic obligations. I take pet care seriously, and I'm committed to providing the best care for each animal I look after. Their well-being and comfort are my top priorities, and I ensure they receive the love and attention they deserve. I will follow the pet's established daily routine as closely as possible while offering companionship, petting, and cuddles. I will be sure to report any unusual behavior, signs of illness, or changes in eating or drinking habits. I will secure the home when leaving, double-checking that all doors and windows are locked and that the pet is safe and comfortable. I will provide excellent care to your pets, ensuring your beloved animals' safety, comfort, and well-being.

“Yani was amazing! I think Bolo had more fun with her than me! Would definitely work with her again.”

Don’t hesitate to reach out! I am not currently accepting boarding in my own home, however I am more than happy to pet sit as well as stay overnight sitting in a clients home. I care for your pets to the best of my ability with your instructions kept in mind.
