Barbara is great with our boys Mickey and Joey. She always plays with them and gives them loving attention. One of our cats requires medication and Barbara reports on on his health and medication intake-Joey hides at pill time but barbara persists with our reluctant boy. Barbara is reliable and we all enjoy her visits!

Lillian is awesome! Extremely attentive. Always left great notes. She was prompt and showed up twice daily at consistent time frames to take care of my little man! He is shy, and she even got him to snuggle on her lap after a few days of bonding! I know my little buddy Charleston is in great hands now whenever I leave town because I have Lillian to help care for him! Thanks again!

I have an incontinent fur baby which requires daily bladder expression. Vera made it a point to come out for multiple pre visits to learn how to properly express Tequila’s bladder prior to my trip. Even though where I was staying, I had no signal for the majority of my trip, Vera managed to successfully check in with me during each visit. She gave detailed accounts of her visits and met Tequila at her comfort level for care. When Tequila leaked, Vera made sure to wipe it up as well. She’s definitely someone I will call on again to look after my fur babies.

About: I have been a pet owner my whole life and have been walking dogs for 3 years. I have always had great experiences when caring for other families pets! I currently work part time 8am-12pm. Anytime after that I am free Monday-Thursday. I prefer staying in near by towns such as Maywood, Paramus, and Hackensack but am flexible. I am very cautious when entering homes and making sure doors are closed and locked when I leave. Your pet is in great hands with me!

Anna has been watching my dog every year when I go on vacation. She takes great care of my Jack Russel and makes sure he gets lots of exercise each day. She takes him on long walks, plays with him outside in our backyard, and makes sure he is well taken care of. We appreciate Anna greatly. Definitely recommend!!
