About: I've had dogs all my life, the most recently i had a awesome miniature poodle who I was fortunate to love and care for 17 years, so I am familiar with the needs of senior dogs. My schedule is fairly open every day after about 9 or ten am. I'd like a regular opportunity, but one offs will be good as well I am available for pet sitting at the clients home, but due to younger kids I can accommodate pets at my home. Walking and feeding and playing is ideal

Vanessa and Jeremy were wonderful with Milton! He loves treats and playtime and they gave him lots of both- even sparking his interest with a different wand toy. I will definitely book with Vanessa in the future.

Cassidy is a wonderful, experienced, thoughtful dog sitter. I returned from my trip and my mini-bernedoodle Zoe was clearly happy and content from her time spent with Cassidy. I highly recommend Cassidy for watching your pup.

About: What sets me apart is that I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy caring for animals. I have experience with responsibility heavy roles like nannying, which has taught me how important routines, communication, and trust are when caring for someone else’s loved ones. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all personalities and energy levels, including pets who need extra patience, structure, or calm handling. I’m also attentive to feeding schedules, walking routines, crate training support, and keeping pets engaged through play and exercise. I make it a priority to follow instructions carefully and keep owners updated with messages and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether your pet needs active walks, gentle companionship, or consistent care while you’re away, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like they’re my own. I am flexible and open to both weekday and weekend bookings. I prefer morning and afternoon visits/walks, but I can accommodate evening care depending on the request. I’m currently a recent graduate from Montclair State University and am working toward my master’s degree at Rutgers in nutrition, so my schedule may vary slightly depending on school and coursework. However, I’m committed to being reliable, consistent, and communicative once a booking is confirmed. I’m available for: Morning check-ins and walks Midday visits Afternoon care Occasional evening bookings I do my best to respond quickly and accommodate last-minute requests when possible. I prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all owner instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walk times, litter box care, and any special needs or medications. In the client’s home, I am respectful of the space and keep everything clean and organized. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while also respecting their personality whether they are energetic and playful or prefer a calm and quiet environment. For dogs, I focus on safe walks, positive interaction, and structured care based on their energy level and routine. For cats, I understand the importance of space and consistency, and I always allow them to approach on their own terms to build trust. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners feel reassured and connected while they are away. My goal is always to care for each pet as if they were my own.

About: We love our dog but we aren’t crazy dog people. Our home is clean. We have a friendly husky and a large fenced yard. We don’t leave for longer than 2 hours when we have a dog over and generally take 1 guest dog at a time. We work from home and only watch when we can be here every 2 hours. We don’t go out for more than 2 hours with a dog staying. I have a big fenced yard and a friendly husky that will keep your pet entertained. We also have a great dog walking neighborhood and path.

About: I am a local college student available to care for your furry “baby”; providing love and care as you would while away.  I have experience caring for range of pet ages understanding the needs of younger pets (exercise, stimulation) as well as older pets (mobility, meds, etc.).  Either way I take my time and exercise patience in getting your dog comfortable and happy with me caring for them.  My goal is to be their “stand in pet parent” and care and love for them as they way you do.   I believe to do that it is important to gain trust and confidence with meeting beforehand if that works for you.  I hope to make your pet feel comfortable so that their stay or care with me will be an enjoyable one for them, and a reassuring one for you. I am a college student - where I work my schedule to be available for your pet’s needs. I have taken care of my dog of 15 years and understand being available with the different needs of a young puppy to a more older dog. I will provide attentive, loving care by following their routine, giving plenty of affection, exercise, and patience, while creating a calm, safe, and loving environment.

Xiomara is amazing! Did a really great job of taking care of my two cats, and played with them. My cats have no issues interacting with her, and immediately show interest to her at first intro meeting. She kept house clean and tidy after the visit. Would definitely recommend her and book her again for the future!

About: I have experience walking dogs as a side hustle for over three years, and I have cats of my own. I also volunteered at a pet shelter, so I’m able to meet all types of animals’ needs. I’m happy to assist those in the area! As a remote intern, I have plenty of time throughout the day to spend time with your pets, without rushing walks or visits. I have flexible hours to be there when needed! Certain animals can behave differently when their owners are away from home, so it’s important to go above and beyond to show them love! I have cleaned many stress-related accidents for them and are attentive to their needs. I always try to play fetch with them if they’re interested!

Paul was absolutely wonderful with Beau. You can tell immediately that he genuinely loves animals and treats them like his own. He was communicative, reliable, kind, and made me feel completely comfortable leaving my puppy in his care. Beau adored him, and I could tell he was well cared for and happy when I got home. I would recommend him to anyone… although part of me wants to keep him a secret for myself 😂 Thank you again, Paul!
