About: I have been pet-sitting for my neighbors, boss, and co-workers since 2010. While I occasionally board pets in my home, I usually provide pet/house-sitting in the customer's home. I walk/feed/brush dogs, administer oral medication if indicated, and spend time playing with them. I also take in mail, water plants, and take out trash/recycling. I am a newly retired teacher, now only working part time. I am available for your pet care needs early morning, early afternoon, & evenings. If I am providing care in my home, I can offer to take dogs for a walk in a nearby state park. I try to keep the pets' feeding and walking schedules consistent with that of the owners.
About: Hi! I’m Lily—an experienced, reliable, and genuine dog lover who treats every pup like family. I work from home full-time, which gives me great flexibility and allows me to be fully present and attentive to your dog’s needs. Whether your pup is high-energy and playful or more laid-back and cuddly, I love meeting them where they are and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet and your home, and I don’t take that lightly. I’m responsible, communicative, and detail-oriented—and I truly enjoy building bonds with the dogs I care for. My goal is always to give you peace of mind and your dog a great experience. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors, and with a variety of breeds including Pit Bulls, mixed breeds, and Cocker Spaniels. I’m comfortable with different temperaments and energy levels and take the time to understand each dog’s personality. My experience includes: • Administering oral medications • Ear treatments and basic care • Walking and exercising dogs safely • Feeding, playtime, and companionship • Caring for senior dogs and dogs who need extra patience or support I’m calm, patient, and attentive—and I genuinely enjoy giving dogs the time and affection they deserve. Because I work from home, I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate: • Dog walking • Drop-in visits • In-home sitting at your home I’m available mornings, mid-day, and evenings. While I can’t host pets in my current residence, I’m happy to care for your dog in their own home where they’re most comfortable and relaxed.

I’m responsible, reliable, and respectful of both your pet and your home. • You can expect me to: • Follow all care instructions carefully • Keep doors, gates, and leashes secure • Maintain a calm, clean, and safe environment • Provide photo and message updates Treat your home with respect and care Whether your dog is playful, shy, anxious, or independent, I provide patient, loving, and dependable care.
About: I am a lifelong animal lover, highly experienced with “escape artists”. I only look after pets from a single household and I work from home so your pet(s) will have all the attention they need and deserve. I have experience with dogs, both young and old. Whether they need medication or potty pads, I’ve got it handled! I live in a quiet subdivision that makes for great walks, and I have a fenced in yard. NO pets are unsupervised at any time outside. I take great pride in the fact you can rest easy and know your pet is in great care! I work from home and my schedule is relative flexible. I have time to take dogs out 3 times a day (or more if required). This also allows me to get some play time in throughout the day. I do not make commitments to others when I am watching your pets, so they will always have supervision I have a fenced in yard and I live in a quiet subdivision. I have a small friendly dog that likes to keep to herself (cat friendly as well). And I have large and medium crates, if your pets prefers to sleep in one as well as plenty of space if you prefer to provide your own.
About: Experienced pet sitter and animal lover. I've worked in animal rescue, done trap-neuter-release, cared for a colony of feral cats for a decade, and fostered more kittens and adult cats than I can count. I offer visits, walks, overnight stays, or I can live at your house while you are away. I am a nature and wildlife photographer so I have gotten to know, to one degree or the other, all of the animals around my home, which, I believe, helps to make me comfortable with all types of pets. I also offer pet portraits! I have experience with all of the usual pets, plus a few unusual ones too. I will take good care of your dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, reptiles, small animals and even tarantulas or insects. I will treat your pets as if they were my own and I will let you know how the visits are going. Your pets will be safe and well cared for with me. I have a regular part time job with a flexible schedule so can be available just about anytime. Let me know what you need and we can work it out. Home visits run about a 1/2 an hour and include, depending upon your pet, a walk, poop scoop, litter box cleaning, feeding, watering and treat dispensing, and pats and cuddles.
“Julie did a great job. She and my dog connected right away and I felt safe and secure with having him be in her care. She was responsive, professional and follow-through on all that we agreed on. I highly recommend her and will be calling upon her in the future as the need presents itself.”

About: I’ve had pets since I was born and have always cared deeply for their happiness and healthiness. I’ve been asked by many friends, family and acquaintances to watch their animals and have always done a wonderful job. Part of what makes me good at it is that I genuinely love each pet I take care of, even if I only see them once. I’m currently unemployed so I would have all the time in the world to play with, feed, take care of, and walk multiple animals a day. I have a partially fenced in yard as well as a dog that loves to play and nap with other animals. He doesn’t have any playmates really so he would have an amazing time getting to know any animal. If I’m caring for your animal in your own home, I’d be sure to dedicate my all to keeping the house clean and the pets safe and happy!
About: I have cared for my own dogs in my family for the past ten years and have sat animals in my extended family. It is important to leave your furry family members in the trusted care of your sitter or walker which is why I treat your pets like my own. I currently work from home two days a week and am available on weekends. My weeks are flexible and can do early morning or evening drop ins. In my own home we make sure our furry friends are comfortable- we walk on leashes and when in a fenced in yard will always keep an eye on them!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and animals my whole life, so caring for them feels very natural to me. I was raised with Springer Spaniels and have hands-on experience with walks, feeding, playtime, administering medication, and bathing. I genuinely love being around animals and am very intuitive to their needs and energy. Whether your pet is playful and active or more calm and sensitive, I meet them where they are and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while adapting to their routine. I treat every animal like they’re my own and always aim to create a calm, loving environment while you’re away. I work from home doing marketing for small businesses, so my days are naturally calm, flexible, and centered around being present. This allows me to give pets lots of attention, walks, and a consistent routine throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy creating a peaceful, comforting environment whether that means playtime, getting outside, or just relaxing together! On Fridays, I work at a local herbal apothecary from 12–6pm (until it closes on April 20th), and on Saturdays I’m at a bakery from 10–2pm. On those days, I’m still available mornings and evenings for walks, feeding, and quality time. I’m very mindful of keeping each pet’s routine steady so they feel safe, at ease, and cared for. Creating a safe, calm, and trusting environment is always my top priority. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs so I can care for them in a way that feels familiar and comfortable. In a client’s home, I’m very respectful of your space and stick closely to your pet’s normal schedule such as feeding, walks, medication, and overall routine. I pay close attention to their behavior and energy so I can respond to their needs in a thoughtful, attentive way. If caring for pets in my home, I maintain a clean, peaceful environment with lots of supervision and care. I have a side yard for fresh air and easy walks, and I also love taking dogs out for a change of scenery whether that’s a car ride to a nearby park or a walk along the path at Lake Hopatcong across the street from my apartment! Safety is always top of mind, from secure spaces to attentive handling during walks and outdoor time. I’m also very communicative and happy to send photo and video updates so you feel connected and at ease while you’re away :)
About: I’ve loved dogs ever since I was a kid. I’ve been dog walking and house sitting since I was 10. I’ve walked all types of dogs from small to big.

My dog is friendly with others and loves to play with others I have a yard where dogs can play and I also believe in taking dogs out to open spaces to allow them to get their energy out. There’s a big field behind my house where I love to take my dog to.
