I can’t say enough good things about Jill! She took amazing care of my three large dogs, and I could tell right away that they felt comfortable and happy around her. It’s not easy managing three pups with different personalities and needs, but Jill handled it all with such ease, patience, and love. She kept me updated with messages and adorable photos, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. When I came home, the dogs were calm, content, and clearly well cared for. Jill is responsible, trustworthy, and truly has a heart for animals. I’m so grateful we found her, she’s a total gem and we can’t wait to book her again! 🐾

That’s such a sweet detail — here’s the updated review with that added in: ⸻ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ She was absolutely wonderful with Ozzie, Molly, and Pita. Her calm, low-key energy was just what they needed. When I got home, everyone was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. She even took the time to run water for Pita, which he loves. It was such a thoughtful touch! It gave me real peace of mind knowing they were in such capable and caring hands. I’ll definitely be using her again.

David makes our dogs feel safe and loved. They run to him as soon as they see him. He followed all our specific instructions and was very conscientious. He snuggled with them and played with them. We really appreciated how positive he was about staying with Belle and Rory. We would definitely use David again!

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was sixteen years old. I have taken care of dogs of all kinds and sizes. I have been responsible for feeding, walking, and cleaning up after them. I'm currently working part-time so, my schedule is pretty flexible and I can work around your schedule. I have plenty of time to walk, play, and feed your animals! I am available all day on the weekends. Since I am unable to watch clients' pets at my own home, I watch their pets at their own homes. I can either stop by multiple times a day to feed and walk the dogs or I can stay all day or overnight to take care of the animals.

We HIGHLY recommend Jessica! She is so sweet and genuine, and was fantastic with communication before, during, and after our trip. She went above and beyond with our fur babies! We have a highly energetic dog and she contacted us to make sure she was doing everything possible for him. She took him on tons of walks and communicated with us about getting some new toys to calm him : ) She even went to the pet store when Amazon wasn't delivering in time. She played and cuddled with our cat as well. She left our house immaculate. We were more than happy with her care of our pets and our home - again, highly we highly recommend and wouldn't hesitate to have her house sit again!! <3 <3

Christina came to pet sit on fairly short notice but was up to speed very quickly on care for both my senior dog and cat. She was very professional, reliable, responsible and communicated every day with me sending texts and photos updating me on my pets welfare. I was able to trust her and enjoy my trip away worry free. I will have her back again very soon as it was a great experience for myself and my pets!

About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was 10! I have experience with all different breeds, I even have 5 dogs of my own! All breeds are welcome 🤗 I am currently a fully online student and I control my own schedule. My calender is open for whatever days you need! Please feel free to reach out with any questions! 😊 I will not be able to pet sit in my own home, since I have so many animals. However, I am more than happy to care for your pet in your own home, going on walks, bathing, etc.

About: 've been a dog owner for over 10 years and currently have three dogs and a cat, so caring for pets is a big part of my everyday life. I have experience with puppies, adult dogs, and cats, and I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. I'm patient, reliable, and genuinely love spending time with animals. Whether your pet wants to play, go for walks, or just have some company, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. 🐾❤️ I have a flexible schedule and can easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine. Caring for my own three dogs and cat has made pet care a natural part of my day. I make time for walks, feeding, playtime, and providing companionship to ensure pets feel comfortable and well cared for! The safety and comfort of every pet is my top priority. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, needs, and preferences so they can feel secure while away from their owner. In both my home and a client's home, I provide a clean, safe, and loving environment. I closely supervise pets, follow all care instructions, and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. My goal is to treat every pet like they're part of my own family. 🐾❤️

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 :)

I couldn’t be more pleased with the care our dogs received this weekend! They were so happy and relaxed when we got home, which says everything. The house was absolutely spotless, and I really appreciated the thoughtful balance of photo updates. It was just enough to stay connected without feeling inundated. To top it all off, I came home to a lovely handwritten note that was such a sweet surprise. Truly above and beyond!
