Dog Walking in South Broad Street, Newark, NJ

About: I have cared for other people's dogs--roommates, friends, neighbors--since childhood, many decades! I've lived with cats, dogs and birds. I said goodbye to my rescue Westie of almost 17 years during 2025, and I’m not ready for another long-term pet commitment yet. I puppy trained her (with trainer) from 4 months and provided senior care for the last few years. I am very patient when meeting new animal souls, allowing them to come to me when they’re ready. I have been taking shelter dogs on Afternoon Adventures and have been successful with helping to train dogs in my care. I am working part time and have a flexible schedule, and now that I'm pet-less, I am available, even on short notice. I have been going on walks/hikes in our beautiful parks (over 2 miles) and would prefer some four-legged company. I am very good at following your instructions, respectful of routines and choices you make, and sensitive to furry companions' needs. I'll send you lots of pics! I will board low-maintenance/energy pets in my home, not puppies or kittens.

“My dog Rosie, is a big, very strong and high energy Great Dane. Steve does a great job walking her, allowing her to explore and have fun while keeping her under safe control as well. Rosie loves her walks with Steve and even gets excited when she sees his car coming down our street ! Rosie and I will definitely be calling Steve again!”

“I just moved to Newark due to a new job and Renee has been a godsend. I have a nervous nelly 60lb dog and had concerns on finding a local dog walker with the right energy to walk him in the very busy streets. I feel very much at peace knowing that my boy is being walked and and being socialized by Renee while I am at work. She built a lovely rapport with him and I am very grateful!!”

“I am so grateful for the amazing care Caroline gave my dog! This was their first time meeting, and my dog absolutely loved her. Despite the tricky weather, she was incredibly patient, waiting for the rain to pass so she could still give my dog a proper walk. I truly appreciate how kind, sweet, and thoughtful she was throughout. I couldn’t be happier with my first experience on Rover .. we’ll definitely be booking with her again. Thank you so much!”

About: I’ve been taking care of pets (cats and dogs) for 9 years. I’m currently the proud human of a tabby cat and American Pit Bull Terrier. I have experience with kittens from newborn to senior. I have experience with young adult to senior dogs (no puppy care YET). I’m reliable, caring with just the right amount of silliness to keep your pets happy and safe. I’m happy to offer as much or as little attention as animals need. Having taken care of rescue pets, I’m mindful that pets are very sensitive to new people so I do my best to make them feel comfortable. I offer walks, feeding, baths, and playtime. I’m not afraid to get my hands dirty if needed to retrieve a hard to reach ball or chase after a leash! Message me for your pet sitting needs! I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time for pet care. I am available daily, for overnight stays, and over the weekend. I am happy to follow my client’s safety instructions as they explain them to me. I personally don’t keep my pets in cages, but I’m happy to make adjustments as needed for the client.

My schedule for pet sitting is quite flexible and can be tailored to meet your needs. Generally, I am available after 3:00pm from Monday-Friday and available all day on Saturdays and Sundays.

About: Cant think of time where I haven’t been around a dog. Growing up there was always dogs in the house. It comes easy to me. For my 2 dogs it starts at 345am with their first walk before I head to the gym. There 2nd walk comes at 8am before I start work then again at 2pm for a quick lunch break and their last 2 walks come at 5 and 930pm before settling down for the night. In between all the walking they’ll get breakfast and dinner and some naps. Meet and greet is important along with getting to know the pets needs and routines. Along with likes and dislikes. Knowing what the pet parents wants and expects from visits or boarding.

“The best dog walker I’ve had yet! My pup can be leash reactive and high energy on walks, and Akshay has handled her wonderfully and cares about her unique personality. Always gives great updates during the day so I know she’s being cared for!”
