House Sitting in Sterling Forest

“Amazing job! This was my first time having a dog sitter and I was a bit nervous and unsure. The meet and greet was smooth, and kind of an information dump on the sitter. Durning the stay, plenty of updates and pictures. Upon return, my dog (who is high energy) was tired, calm and ready for bed. Which is perfect for me since I was too!”

“Nicole was excellent from start to finish. She was prompt, communicative, and caring for our pets and home. She sent us a ton of photos and left the house in a pristine condition. I would absolutely recommend her for all of your pet and house sitting needs.”

About: I’ve been taking care of pets my entire life, and my family and friends look to me if they need me to dog sit (or pet sit) when they’re away or unavailable. I love animals, and so getting to take care of furry friends is an absolute treat!! I’m currently attending college, so monday and wednesday mornings im out of the house from 8-12. any other time, if given enough notice, i can be available for you and your pets! I live in a family home with my dog daisy, who is very friendly and about 14 years old now. She never fails to be entertained, and I love her with all my heart. I will do the same for your pets :)

About: i’ve house sat//dog sat since i was 13, all types of dogs, sometimes cats, i know basics with pet medicine, i cannot administer shots though i am currently job searching, so right now i’m available pretty much all the time, so i’m doing rover to get a bit of pocket change i will care for your pets however you ask me to unless it does not agree with my morals, then i will politely decline services

“Emma has been great with Augie. We’ve had her for walks and housesitting. She keeps him very entertained and very happy and we get lots of fun pictures! She treats him like he’s her own 😊”

“My two Jack Russell’s had a great time with Shannon while she did a 5 day house sit with them. Shannon regularly kept us up to date on their wellbeing with pictures and texts. She also was able to help us out for an extra day when our flight was delayed returning home and ensured the dogs were still taken care of while we were delayed getting home. The house looked great when we got back and we had two happy pups. Thanks again Shannon!”

“Maddy was incredible!! I felt so comfortable having her at our home. She took pictures everyday and kept us updated with how our pups were doing. We have 3 crazy dogs and she handled them all with ease. Will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs all of my life, and grown up with them since the day I was born. I’ve never not had a dog, my childhood dog lived to be 16 years. I’m here to do what I love and be able to spend my time with all of your fur babies Im flexible I walk dogs while being able to finish school, I do this Monday through Friday and I’m looking to get more overnight sits for the weekends I care for every animal as if they are my own they will be as equally as spoiled as they would in their own home. The safety of your animal is not in question with me because I understand how much we worry about our animals when they aren’t able to be with us.

“I had Ivy stay with my girl Cassie for 3 nights. She did a great job! Cassie and I loved her on our meet and greet. She was very respectful of my home as well. She took the time to write down all feeding and medication times because she knew how important it was to give her medication every 12 hours. I would definitely recommend her to care for your pets. I get nervous leaving Cassie when I have to travel for work, but Ivy staying with her definitely put my mind at ease. I will be using her again for my next trip in a few weeks!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 8 years, including walking, feeding, bathing, and providing daily care for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I have 3 dogs and a cat of my own! Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to keep their pets safe and comfortable while they are at work or away. As a nursing student, I am very attentive, patient, and detail-oriented. I am comfortable following specific routines, administering basic medications if needed, and caring for both energetic puppies and senior dogs. Safety and consistency are always my top priority. I am available for recurring daytime walks, drop ins, or pet sitting in Orange and Rockland County, NY. Throughout the fall and Spring time I am enrolled in an evening Nursing program in Bergen County NJ, and can also make accommodations there! When caring for pets, safety and trust are my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, leash instructions, and any special care requests provided by the owner. I always ensure collars and harnesses are secure before walks and remain attentive at all times. As a nursing student, I am trained to stay calm, observant, and proactive in any situation. I provide photo updates after walks and communicate clearly so owners feel confident their pets are in safe care!

“Dianna and shea are always amazing. Our pup is getting older now and needs a little more loving and medications. They give her meds exactly on schedule and communicate clearly when doing so. We get lots of pictures throughout and we know she is being taken care of very well. Would highly recommend!!”

“Aletris was great with my dogs. She kept us updated and took care of them like her own. She went above and beyond will definitely rebook with her!”

“David did an outstanding job watching our dog, Trixie. He walked her often during the day, and had her out early in the morning and well into the evening. He came to our home the day before his scheduled time to meet with us, and to see the dog. He wanted Trixie to see us together with him, so she would be comfortable knowing that he was an accepted part of our pet family. He left our home in perfect condition when we came back from a brief vacation. David is a very nice person and he is well suited with pets. I would have David back in the future when his services are again needed. Roseann and Mike b”

“Michael is a wonderful dog sitter! He stayed at our home for 3 nights, and took great care of our 3 pups. We received multiple updates with photos daily. We will absolutely ask Michael to dog sit for us again.”

“Teadie did a great job with my two - she was communicative, reachable, and professional. Her 6 day stay with my two went really great! I really appreciated her and will re-book again!”

“Brett was excellent in taking care of our companion, Celtie and our three parrots. Celtie is a senior dog who requires some extra help for confidence with steps, she also requires some meds and supplements in her daily feedings. Brett handle this perfectly by understanding her physical and emotional needs. His positive and gentile demeanor with her, during our two meet and greets, left us with no doubt that she would be in good hands while we were away. Brett kept us informed with texts and pictures regularly of him and Celtie while we were away. His communication before, during and after his stay in our home was immediate. Brett wanted to be sure that our flight was not delayed and that we would be home in a timely manner to care for Celtie. He even offered to return to care for Celtie if we were running late. One more appreciation about Brett is that our home was clean and in the condition we left it to him in. We could go on but, in the end Brett is an excellent sitter. Thank you again Brett, Celtie, Ed, Tim and the Parrots”

About: From the age of 4 i’ve had two cats. Now I have two dogs as well. Both rescues one a mutt, and another a pit mix. Outside of my own pets I have taken care of friends, family, and neighbors pets. Whether it be walking, drop-in visits or staying overnight I love taking care of all animals. If needed, I can help medicate too. I have a flexible schedule and my own car. I’m here to be a last minute carer, or a reliable and stable carer for your pets. I am available for walking, drop-in visits, and overnight stays. With my own car I am willing and able to drive far distances. I will care for your pets by communicating clearly with you on any and all their needs. I will treat your home and your animals with care. I will love your pets like my own!

About: I’ve grown up around animals and currently care for my 10 year old yorkie Aj. Who has taught me so much about the importance of patience, routine, and unconditional love. I pay attention to each pet’s unique personality and needs whether that’s plenty of playtime, snuggles, or extra patience for seniors. I’m also reliable and attentive making sure pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. 💕💕 I just graduated college and I am working part time. I am super excited to take on this adventure because I have such a deep love for animals and would love to spend my extra time taking care of any lovely dogs or cats. Since I work three days a week I have a large chunk of time I can spend with cute pups! My usual days of working are Monday- Wednesday. I am available after 5pm as well! My top priorities are safety and trust. In a client’s home, I always respect their rules and preferences so pets feel comfortable in their own environment. My goal is always to give pets the same love and security I give my own pup 🩷

“Julia did a fantastic job watching our Maggie. I contacted her last minute (we had her scheduled, then canceled, and when our plans changed we contacted her in a panic to see if she was still available), and she was able to do so. She visited Maggie 4 times a day and contacted us each time she was there. She sent us pictures as well. It was the first time we left Maggie alone overnight and we were a little nervous about how she would be, but Julia eased our minds with the updates and everything went well. I will definitely use her services in the future and I highly recommend her!”

About: I have two dogs at home that I have been helping take care of since a young age with feeding and walking. I also have worked at a doggy daycare for more than 2 years where I oversee play groups, feed, and give medications to big groups of dogs. I’m currently working as a Vet Tech and love being able to care for animals and helping them in any way I can. I’m currently working full time but can make time in my daily routine to provide high quality care to your pet! I have more availability on the weekend but during the week I’m free before and after work. I plan to keep your pet under close supervision when I’m home with your pet. If your pet needs to be left unattended for any amount of time I will keep your pet in a crate or in a separate room so your pet is confined to one area. Your pet will also be given frequent bathroom breaks throughout the day and will have constant access to water.
