“We are so lucky to have found Paula, she's an absolute blessing! She is competent, reliable, responsive, and just overall a kind and lovely human! It was such a relief to know our furballs were in good hands while we were away. I cannot recommend Paula more highly, and we will definitely be using her again.”
“We have a crew of fur and feathered pets over at our house. All with their own personalities, one specifically who suffers from anxiety. We had a previous sitter who recently relocated and have been STRESSED about having our girl adjust to someone new. And to our pleasant surprise in just two short visits she has fully adjusted to Gabriella. Gabriella sat on the floor with her and let her come to her at her own pace and own time & made her feel comfortable. Side note, we have recently been going through a lot with our fur babies and Gabriella has been there and flexible all through out the process. Our cat is new on oral medication and today was night two of his dosage and Gabriella gave it to him without hesitation. We fully feel not just confident about her watching our babies but grateful that she has been willing to work with us given these current changes and inconsistent times! Thank you thank you thank you Gabriella! 🩵🩷🩷”
“She was consistent with her visits while we were away, and took care of the cats well. When we returned, the cats' bowls were full and they were well and happy to see us. She sent us pictures of our sociable cat, and he looked as curious and happy as he always does. She did everything we asked of us and was pleasant the entire time. We are grateful for her time and services!”

About: I am an elementary school teacher with a passion for children as well as animals. Unfortunately, I recently had to say goodbye to my beloved pet and am now seeking opportunities to care for and provide love to other animals. I recognize the unique needs of each animal and am committed to providing tailored care for your pet. I am patient and adaptable, and will diligently adhere to any specific instructions you provide for the well-being of your pet. It is worth noting that my young daughter has been exposed to a variety of animals her entire life and interacts well with all types of dogs. Please feel free to reach out if you require any assistance with your furry family member. During weekends and school breaks, I dedicate approximately 90% of my time to caring for your pet. On weekdays, as I work as a teacher, I am typically away from the home from 7:30 am to 3:30 pm. Our day usually begins around 5:30 am with a long morning walk to start the day off right. I return home early from work, allowing for plenty of time in the afternoons for activities such as visits to parks, leisurely walks, or simply spending quality time at home with your pet, providing ample cuddles and attention as needed. Our residence is outfitted with Ring Security Cameras to ensure the safety and security of your pet while in our care. Your pet will have the freedom to move about the premises at all hours. Additionally, I have a spacious crate available for use in the event that your pet requires crate training or prefers to sleep in a confined space. Rest assured, the crate will only be utilized if specifically requested by you.
“Melisa's cat-sitting service was excellent. We were glad to come home to find Benny happy, well-fed, and given lots of attention - and the apartment was kept clean. Our cat has special needs so it was a relief to be able to rely on Melisa's dependable communication and dedication to her work. It's clear she has a lot of love and compassion for pets!”
“Wonderful. My baby was in good hands. Very grateful.”
About: Since the day i was born i have had a small zoo in my home. Over the years i have had pets such as cats, dogs, birds, fish, reptiles and small animals. I absolutely love caring for my animals and it means the world to me to see them healthy and living their best lives! I currently have a 70+ lb pitbull of my own and spend alot of my free time volunteering at an Animal shelter in NJ. Most of that time is spent walking large (sometimes reactive) dogs, so large breeds and strong pullers are not a problem! I am available for drop ins and walks Monday- Friday (and certain weekends). As long as i do not already have a booking, i am usually available too help my fellow animal lovers with their pet care needs! I never leave animals unattended outside ( including fenced in yards). I also assure that all food and treats being offered are approved by the pet parents which i am working with. I also am very careful about keeping dangerous/toxic household items and plants far out of reach of any animals!

About: I have life-long experience with caring for animals and I bring energy, love, and dedication to every one of them.ever since middle school I have walked dogs, boarded small animals, and housesit for neighbors, and now I spoil my own dog daily. I’ve cared for all kinds of pets—from dogs and cats, to fish, gerbils, rabbits, and even reptiles. I’m also skilled in puppy training, senior dog care, and providing personalized attention to every pet. (For high energy dogs- I’m also a runner so if you want me to take your dog for a jog just let me know) With my 8:30-4 work schedule, I have evenings and weekends free to offer consistent care, including feeding, walking, and playing with your pet : ) When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize both their safety and comfort. I follow any specific care instructions, such as feeding schedules or medication, and specific routines you animal has. I also keep the home clean and tidy, respecting the client's space while ensuring their pets are happy and safe.
“The best of the best!!! If I could give Ursula a million stars I would. She watched my three cats when we went on a family vacation. I was nervous leaving them in the care of a stranger. She came to my house to meet me and them, and the second I met her I felt at ease and knew my babies were going to be in great hands. She is a licensed vet tech which certainly was a plus for me, but besides that, her entire demeanor was just wonderful. She did twice daily drop in visits and sent me pics, videos and write ups about each visit assuring me that my babies were all doing great. She literally went above and beyond and I thank my lucky stars that Rover led us to her. I am now spoiled and can never use another pet sitter, because she truly is the best.”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs (and many other animals) since I was a child. I worked as a dog walker while in college so I have lots of experience with all breeds. I’ve also taken a pets first aid/CPR course from the Red Cross. I work 4 days a week but I’m available all day on weekends and Mondays. I’m also available until 1 pm on Tuesdays as well as evenings the other 6 days. I’ll spoil your pooch with walks that fits their needs, dog park trips, and my favorite... dog-friendly hikes! I also live in a very walkable neighborhood.
