Dog Walkers in Somerville, NJ

“Marc was great with our dog Penny. After just a meet and greet and one walk, she was so excited to see him the third time you would think he was part of our family. Also, I like the detailed feedback he gives about how she does on walks.”

About: I am currently working as a veterinary technician and have extensive pet sitting experience. I have a dog and 3 cats of my own and would love the opportunity to care for your pets as if they were my own! I can care for all sizes of dogs, cats, and other pets. I'm able to medicate, administer insulin or other injections, or anything medical. I'm very good with scared or unsure pets and have a knack for helping them feel more comfortable. I'm happy to spend time with the pets, walking them, playing with them, or just spending time petting them. I have loved and cared for animals since I was young and am hoping to have the opportunity to care for yours as well! I work from home and can be flexible with drops in and walks. I am also free all weekend! I can do drops ins, walks, overnights or medication administration. I will always make sure to follow your preferred schedule and make sure to take care of all needs you have for your pet! We can walk, play, snuggle, whatever they prefer!

“Ruby takes such good care of our Golden Retriever puppy. She’s always on time and gives detailed updates about how the walks go. Ruby is kind, easy to communicate with, and we know our pup is in great hands while we’re at work!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for over 20 years and currently have two of my own. I have experience volunteering for animal shelters and can handle meds, clean up, walks, or assistance for special needs animals. I am insured with Pet Sitters Associates. While in my care, your fur babies are my highest priority and I will love them as if they were my own! I’m currently on a sabbatical from work and am available most days during the week. After taking care of my own, I am free for walks and play starting at 8:30am until 6pm. Peace of mind, pet safety, and your pets contentment is my highest priority and I will follow the exact instructions provided by the pet owner.

“Yana came through for us and our sweet boxer like a champ! She accepted a last minute request for a dog walk, communicate well throughout, and provided service above and beyond.”

About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was six years old, and have had the pleasure of taking care of everything from dogs and cats to horses and chickens. I was a member of my counties 4-H for 13 years and competed nationally in events relating to pet care and knowledge. I have also been working on the side for different horse farms since I was 8 years old and have loved every minute of it! Currently I have my own cat and my family has a dog and two other lovely kitties. I’m a vegetarian who loves all animals, no matter what! I take care of every animal I encounter as if they were my own and make sure they know they are loved. On Sundays I spend a few hours volunteering at my local animal shelter as well :) I work a full time corporate office job so any opportunity to get outside is one that I look for. Since my commute from work is only 10 minutes, it makes getting around very easy. I treat my pets like people and always put their needs before my own. I pride myself on organization and cleanliness as well as my ability to retain a lot of detail

“Lauren did an excellent job adapting to our Dog as he didn't want to go for a walk in the cold. So he had a quick bathroom break and some cuddles on the couch!”

About: Hi there! My name is Roe and im from Basking Ridge, NJ. Animals are my life!

I was a professional pet sitter for 2 years :) i currently work at a dog barkery and would love to pet sit again in my spare time! Im friendly and reliable, and I will give your pet family lots of love!!! Long walks, treats, and cuddles are my favorite :) I cant wait to get to know your fur babies! Feel free to contact me for more detailed schedule <3 I currently work at a dog bakery in Bridgewater. Wed-sat. 6-7 hours a day. If your pets are used to you being away during those times that would be perfect! I have decent flexibility with this schedule so feel free ask :) I have 3 pups! I understand the worry and stress that comes with having to leave your fur babies! I will care for them like I would my own!

“Alex was great and very flexible! I would use him again definitely!”

About: Dogs have been apart of my life since I was 10 years old when we got our little guy Sputnik. After High School, I attended The Morris County School of Technology where I graduated from its Veterinary Medicine course that vastly expanded my knowledge on interpreting dog behavior, action steps in an emergency, and markers for potential medical complications. After that, I worked at two different esteemed dog daycare and boarding facilities for a total of 3 years. During this time I was able to put what I learned into practice with a variety of different situations and a variety of different dogs all ranging in size, age, and temperament. This experience not only taught me technical skills, but also the philosophy I now use for pet care. Each dog is unique, and what works for one might not be effective for another. It is with this in mind, that I strive to find the approach that works best for your dog. As a dog owner myself I understand that they are so much more than just pets, they are furry members of our families. This notion is important in conveying the gravity of entrusting the care of your four legged family to another. With all this in mind, I hope you will consider my services so I can get to know both you and your furry friend(s). Currently my schedule is very open, with only a few select dates throughout the summer where I will be unavailable. I am currently enrolled in two summer college courses that will end around mid-August. Both are virtually however, so there is no class meeting so they will impact my ability to pet care very minimally. I am a full-time student, so at the end of August I resume a full-course load at college and my schedule will be restricted; but, I should still be able to accommodate when necessary. My dog is small senior pup(11 years old), so managing his comfort and administration of his medication on time and schedule are the most important aspects of his care at this point in his life. I also live on a dead-end where he is able to roam fairly freely until he is tired. While this is what works for my dog, it might not be what works for yours. Through talking with you and getting to know your dog, we will be able to come up with a plan/schedule that works best for them!

“Kaitlyn is my go to person for walking Calla! She is very patient with her and I always have peace of mind knowing Kaitlyn is pet sitting for me!”

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring pet sitter with 6 years of experience working with dogs of all kinds. I also have a strong background in training, so your pup will not only be well cared for but also get some positive reinforcement along the way. I treat every dog like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine since I’m currently studying and spend most of my time at home. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, stay consistent with their schedules, and care for multiple animals while making sure each one gets the time and care they need. I have a fenced yard as well as a fenced pet pen to give your pets the freedom in a controlled environment. I also provide home cook pet meals as well!

About: Hi there! My name is Diana, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up around animals—long before I was even born, my family always had pets. From cats and dogs to farm animals like chickens, cows, and pigs, I was raised surrounded by animals of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. Being around them taught me early on how special the bond between people and their pets can be. When my family relocated to New Jersey when I was 7 years old, we adopted a sweet beagle named Sparky. He was a beloved member of our family for 15 wonderful years before he passed away from old age. Caring for Sparky throughout his life showed me how much love, patience, and attention pets deserve at every stage of their lives. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pet! Please feel free to reach out with any questions—I look forward to helping care for your furry family member. I’m reliable, dependable, and attentive to detail. I’m currently taking a gap semester from my master’s program, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the week for house sitting, drop-ins, and walks, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s specific needs and schedule. Since my family and I foster cats, we work hard to maintain a calm and consistent routine for them while they adjust to our home. For that reason, I’m unfortunately unable to board pets in my home. However, I’m more than happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home through drop-in visits, where they can stay relaxed in their familiar environment.

“Chloe is exceptional. She is punctual, personable, friendly, patient, and very much cares about the happiness and comfortability of our dogs. She is great!”
