Pet Sitting in Rutherford

“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 3 years of professional dog training experience, working with over 100-150 dogs in obedience, rehabilitation, and off-leash training using proper e-collar techniques and various training tools. I’ve also administered medication and helped socialize dogs. In addition to training my own dog for the past 5 years, I’ve assisted my girlfriend with dog care on Rover, ensuring every pup gets the attention, exercise, and structure they need. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine—I work full-time from 9 to 5, so I'm available for walks and drop-ins before 9 AM, after 5 PM, and throughout the weekends. I love giving dogs a fulfilling experience by incorporating play, long walks, and short training sessions to keep them mentally stimulated. I’m also available for house sitting and boarding at my home, where your dog will receive plenty of care and attention from both me and my girlfriend, who’s also experienced with dogs and active on the Rover app. Lastly I am also available on the weekends as well if need be. I live in a pet-friendly home with plenty of space for your dog or cat to feel comfortable and safe. There's a beautiful park right behind my place, perfect for walks and outdoor time. I have room for a crate if needed and lots of open space indoors for your pet to relax and roam freely. When caring for a client’s pet in their home, I prioritize safety by following their specific routines and instructions closely. I make sure doors, gates, and crates are securely closed, keep harmful items out of reach, and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. I maintain a clean and calm environment, monitor their behavior closely, and provide regular updates to the owner to ensure peace of mind. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priority.

About: Cats have always held a special place in my heart, and I take pride in offering care that goes beyond the basics. With years of experience caring for cats of all kinds, I’ve developed a keen sense for what makes them tick and what keeps them content. I’m dedicated to creating a comfortable, stress-free environment that feels like home, even when you’re away. I pay close attention to the details that matter, from ensuring their favorite napping spot is just right to maintaining a clean and inviting litter box. I’m mindful of their daily routines and preferences, whether it’s sticking to a specific feeding schedule or offering the perfect balance of play and quiet time. What I truly enjoy is building a connection with each cat I care for, taking the time to understand their unique quirks and needs. My approach is always gentle and patient, aiming to make your cat feel safe and well-loved. Knowing that your cat is happy and comfortable allows you to enjoy peace of mind, confident that they’re in the care of someone who genuinely understands and cherishes them. I have the flexibility to be home which allows me to dedicate my time and attention to caring for pets. My schedule is adaptable, so I can easily fit pet care into my daily routine, whether it’s spending quality time with your cat, ensuring they’re well-fed, or just being present to keep them company. This setup not only allows me to provide consistent care but also ensures that your pet has someone attentive and reliable around. Caring for pets in my home is something I take very seriously, ensuring that every animal feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I create a warm and welcoming environment tailored to each pet's needs, whether it's setting up a cozy space for them to relax or keeping their feeding and play schedules consistent. I make sure they have plenty of fresh water, clean litter boxes, and engaging activities to keep them happy and stimulated. I also spend quality time with each pet, offering companionship, play, and affection to make them feel right at home.

About: I have 6 months experience working at a Dog Daycare, where I watched over around 20 dogs at a time in the play area. I also cleaned their crates and kennels, bathed them, fed them, and provided medicine if needed. I have lived with dogs my entire life as well as taking care of my friends and families’ dogs. I have some experience taking care of cats, we have one currently, I am open to taking care of cats but do not have as much experience. I will soon be college graduate coming June, and so I’ll have a lot more time to walk any dogs on the daily. I will also soon be able to consider at-home visits if you’re family goes on vacation. I currently will not be boarding in my own home as my family has two dogs, and a cat. Although they are all friendly, our house would be too crowded for a fourth.

About: I had a maltipoo who I cared for for 13 years so I am confident in caring for pups like her. I’ve also had to dog-sit some friends’ dogs who’d I bring for walks, play in the yard, and fill food and water bowls for them while gone! I generally work 3 days a week so I am looking to care and walk dogs for a couple other days during my week to fill my days. I will make sure to close all doors that I have entered and make sure the dog is back in the house before leaving. I will make sure I put everything back to where they were and fill any bowls that I am instructed to make sure the dogs are comfortable until their owners or next person comes to see them!

“Leanne was great with Subie! She’s a very accommodating sitter. Thanks Leanne!”

About: I helped train and raise my dog when she was a crazy golden doodle puppy. I dog sit for families and friends dogs of all ages and sizes. I enjoy taking care of dogs and making sure they are happy and loved. Im a college student home for the summer, working a part time job that will provide me with lots of availability to take care of pets! When I take care of dogs in their own homes, I do my best to make the animals comfortable in their own environment. I pay close attention to directions given by the owner about their routine, feedings, etc. I want to make sure they are happy and stick to their regular routine to make things easier.

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 baby. 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 that I have since left, and with new experience and knowledge I decided to give it a try on my own, and 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 daughter a gentle and playful 4 yr old, and will have attention and care as if they were our very own family member! We have some wonderful clients and are looking to expand and perhaps create a pet brand worthy of being called a family. We hope to create lasting bonds with your pup so they feel at home even when you must leave them with us for a bit. We have a few clients but are looking to expand our boarding roster! We usually sit for our clients when they go on a trip for business or a vacation, 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 will be taken into account on a case-by-case basis so we can provide the ultimate comfortable stay for your pet. we understand that a pup can feel anxious and even sad when boarding, so we work to minimize that inevitable feeling of missing you! 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 as we call them tend to laze about and get comfortable, or play. We also make regular park visits. 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.

About: I have a true love for dogs and all animals. I have dog sat for family and friends and enjoy every minute of it. When I finally live on my own the first thing I’m going to do is get a dog of my own! I love taking the dogs on walks, playing with them, and of course snuggling. I am available any day of the week and have a very flexible schedule. I have grown up with dogs my whole life, therefore I really know how to care for them. Having a dog makes life so much better and a lot more fun. Having the opportunity to care for dogs is like a dream come true! I hope I can be the sitter, walker, and caregiver you’re looking for! I work from home so I’m available pretty much all day everyday! Weekends are up in the air but I try to keep my calendar up to date as best as I can :) We can always discuss pricing if needed! I live in a house with a fenced in yard that is perfect for all doggos to run around and play! If your dog loves being outside my yard will definitely be their paradise haha
