Pet Sitting in Rutherford

“Victoria watched our anxious eight-year-old cat for a week. Every day, we looked forward to receiving cute pictures and a description of the visit. When we returned, our cat was noticeably happier and healthier than he has been after visits from previous pet sitters. Victoria gave our pet plenty of love and attention. You can tell that she really cares about the animals she pet sits.”

“Peter was great and I would definitely book with him again. He was very thorough, prompt, and followed all of my instructions exactly. I really appreciated the detailed notes he left after each visit, and it was clear from his updates that he took his time and genuinely interacted with my animals instead of just rushing through the visits. He made me feel comfortable knowing my animals were taken care of, and everything was handled professionally from start to finish. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable, attentive, and great with pets.”

“Maryann was great with our cat and sent me lots of great pictures and updates. She also left an adorable gift for my pets and was easy to reach for updates. Would definitely use her again 😀”

Miranda E.

“I had such a great experience with Jinghong! My dog is usually pretty skittish around new people, but he warmed up to her almost immediately. Jinghong has such a calm, patient energy that dogs naturally trust. She is reliable, communicative, and sends the sweetest updates and photos during and after each visit. I feel completely at ease knowing my pup is with her. If you have a shy, reactive, or sensitive dog, I highly recommend Jinghong. She has been such a great match for my dog .”

“Christina was incredible with my cat! She was very thorough, caring, and treated my cat as if she were her own. Christina went above and beyond, even spending extra time with her most days. She also made sure my apartment stayed clean and provided constant pictures and feedback. I felt so grateful knowing that my cat was in such great care while I was very far away. When I returned, my cat was very calm and happy, which shows she remained relaxed while I was away!”

“Andrew always comes in clutch at the last minute! I’ve used Andrew in the past and Timo already knows that when Andrew comes by it’s play time! As always Andrew is communicative, punctual and focused on full attention for Timo while he is here. Couldn’t recommend Andrew enough!”

“Lori took great care of Bailey. She followed my instructions for feeding and caring my baby and was great about cleaning up after him. My only critique is that I wish she had better communication with me. I received photos but no written communication.”

Jeannette R.

“I’ve used Luna many times now and she is excellent! She’s very diligent, trustworthy, and easy to communicate with. My two cats love her and she’s been great.”

Sarah C.

“Anna has been watching my puppy a few times a week since she was about 4 months old and my puppy always has the best time. Anna is very thorough and follows all of my instructions regarding my dog’s care. I would recommend her to anyone!”

Haley P.

“Melissa was great with our cat Luna. She followed our care instructions perfectly and provided us with daily updates. She even stayed extra long each visit! We'd definitely hire Melissa again in the future.”

About: I have had dogs all of my life ranging from large to small. I have had experience walking them, putting them on leashes, being around multiple dogs and people with my dogs. What sets me apart is that I am very active and will be willing to have your dog get lots of exercise. I also want to be doing this because I love dogs so much and miss having one of my own. I am responsible and organized and will always pay attention to your dog and not neglect them. My friends also have rover and I know from them the best ways to do things and handle things. I have also watched my friends and family’s dogs in the past as well! I’m able to watch dogs as needed in my home and have limited meetings each day. I work from home and so does my boyfriend! We live in a very walkable area and will be able to give the dog lots of attention as we both work from home and will be able to play with them and walk them!

“Geoff is amazing with our puppy and very accommodating. Geoff’s gentle, patient and calm demeanor is exactly what our puppy needs and responds to best. In fact, we needed Geoff for a last minute drop in and he was able to accommodate our request despite his own busy schedule he was able to make it work. Working with Geoff is great and we’re going to continue working with him to care for our puppy. Thank you Geoff!!”

About: I have had dogs all my life. I have experience with taking care of neighbors and friends pets when they are out of town or just need help. Have trained my dog from a puppy to the wonderful pup she is now. I am very attentive and love to play with pups! I am working a full time job. On the weekends I am open all day if they need constant care. During the week, I am available before 8:30 am and after 5 pm. I have a yard for the pup to play around in, but not fenced in. I do own a long leash if they like to prance around. I live in a very safe, walkable neighborhood- able to get them lots of exercise. No pets live in my home.

“Terilyn is great! We have shy dogs and she had some good ideas to make them comfortable. We are happy to have found her!”

Maritha B.

“Delaney was amazing! She was so friendly, reliable, and clearly cares about animals. She kept me updated with photos and my cats warmed up to her so quickly. She even went the extra mile to clean their food mat and offered to take out our trash so the house wouldn’t smell when we got home. I came back to happy, relaxed pets and everything spotless. 10/10 would recommend — she’s the best!”

Samir K.

“We are very happy to have had Yong because he seemed very professional from the first moment and immediately created a strong empathy with Ariel. We closely felt very reassured and calm when we separated from our cat and it was very nice to find him calm and peaceful upon our return!”

About: I have taken care of dogs since childhood (had 6 Golden Retrievers since 2002, now have a Bichon Frise). Your pet will feel at home playing with us and our friendly baby. We’re a loving, pet-friendly home where your furry family member will be treated like our own. I work as a part-time behavioral therapist, and my husband works from home two days a week, so there’s always someone around to give your pup plenty of attention, care, and affection. Caring for dogs truly comes naturally to us. Our new home offers a spacious fenced backyard for playtime, along with nearby dog parks and a beautiful nature walking path—perfect for fresh air, exercise, and fun. Your dog will enjoy a safe, happy environment and feel like a part of our family during their stay. Note: Daycare hours are typically between 7 AM and 7 PM (or less). If you need care beyond these hours, please book a boarding request instead. Thank you! Your fur baby will be treated like family in our home! From cozy naps and meals to fun walks and playtime with our sweet pup Archie, I’ll ensure they feel safe, loved, and as close to home as possible while you’re away. My goal is to make their stay comforting, fun, and full of care until their favorite humans return!

“Melanie came by for a visit just to get to know my kitty, Jinjin before I go away for a week. Melanie was great and was able to get Jinjin out of hiding which was awesome and very reassuring. I highly recommend her!”

About: I’m big on personalized, one-on-one care and giving each pet the attention they deserve. I’m very attentive, detail-oriented, and observant of body language, so I try to understand each pet’s comfort level, energy, and routine rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. As a dog owner myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. Because my work is contract-based, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time during the week for pet care. I love animals, and as a dog parent myself, I’ve kept my availability open during times I know are especially helpful for other pet parents. I’ve built walks and drop-in visits into my routine and like to keep my schedule manageable so I can be reliable, attentive, and fully present with each pet. I know how important trust is when someone is coming into your home and caring for your pet. I’m respectful of your space, attentive to instructions, and very mindful of a pet’s body language and comfort level. I aim to provide thoughtful, reliable care so your pet feels safe and well looked after in their familiar environment. Happy to offer a free meet and greet beforehand so you and your pet can feel comfortable and see if it’s a good fit.

About: look no further for your boarding needs! I started working with dogs steadily a few years ago when the covid pandemic struck our country, and at that time we were having our first baby girl Amorah. I noticed a dog walking position on Indeed, and decided to give it a try, knowing I have always loved dogs and animals in general, and began working for a small startup which I have since left. With tons of new experience and knowledge, I decided to give it a try on my own and i have loved every moment since! Our little family will care for your pup like no other. When your pet is in our home, they will be adored by my daughters, a gentle and playful 5 yr old, we also have a fearless 1 year old. Your fur baby will have attention and care as if they were our very own family member! We have many wonderful clients and are always looking to meet great pet lovers and nice people. I recently began another venture, working daily with a grooming company as well. We are creating a pet brand worthy of being called a family, and We hope to create lasting bonds with your pup so they feel at home even when you must leave them with us for a little while. Feel free to send any questions in advance if booking, thank you! We have a good number of clients, and are looking to expand our boarding roster! We usually sit for our clients when they go on trips for business or vacations, and some of our clients have multiple dogs. Our days usually begin at 7-8am, with breaks at 1pm, 5pm, and end around 930-10 pm with a last walk of the night. Any preferences or special needs will be taken into account on a case-by-case basis so that we can provide the most comfortable stay possible for your pet. we understand that a pup may feel anxious and even sad when boarding, especially for the first time, and so can pup parents leaving them for the first time. We do our best work to minimize that inevitable feeling of them missing you! Safety, calm energy, play time, consistency and nice walks, are our day to day concerns. Safety always comes first, and that means maintaining a physically and mentally safe environment for everyone during the booking. We live in a cozy apartment above a restaurant, one flight of steps up. We have plenty of room, and your pup will have roaming privileges unless you say otherwise. They will hang with the family and most of the time our pup friends tend to laze about and get comfortable, or play arround with amorah or each other if they have company. We also make regular park visits weather permitting. Some clients prefer to provide crates in order to keep their pet feeling secure in a familiar place, please let us know of any preferences or concerns you have, but we have one available for regular sized dogs that may prefer it. We try to accommodate whatever your pup needs in order to feel welcome.
