“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”


“Milena was absolutely amazing with our big dog Magnus. She was so great to work with, excellent communication, very kind, caring and trustworthy. We returned from our trip with a very happy dog, and the house was just as we left it. I would HIGHLY recommend!”



“Elizabeth help make our vacation over Christmas a worry free relaxing vacation. The biggest thing of going away is how are the dogs. Not to is time. Will definitely recommend and use her services again. Thanks Elizabeth”


“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!”


“Yhakerra was so attentive and extremely caring towards both my fur babies. It was not easy either because both my kitties are in separate spaces of the house due to one of them chasing the other and hissing/growling. However, Yhakerra did amazing and handled the separate feedings/litter cleanings like a pro. She also left the house very clean and immaculate. She was even so caring that she asked if she could carry the youngest baby, Luna to the bedroom and let her sleep in the bed, which of course I was so touched that she was so sweet to accommodate the well being of the babies. She had to move her litterbox and food bowls. I highly recommend Yhakerra and will be booking her again in the future. Thank you so much Yhakerra, I’m so thankful to have had you care for my babies.”



“Kaitlynn was great! She came and met the critters before taking on the house-sitting job. It's really obvious that she knows a lot about and adores dogs and cats. She communicated well and kept me informed throughout the visit. I would love to have her house-sit for us again!”


About: I've been around all sorts of animals since I was a child, firstly with pet birds of my own, then volunteering at a farm for a number of years. Most recently, my experience as a veterinary assistant and being in school for a veterinary technician degree also gives me much knowledge in care for all sorts of animals, especially dogs and cats! I'm currently working at a veterinary hospital and have a few days where I can take time to fit pets that need attention into my schedule. Since my schedule changes regularly, my availability may change weekly, but usually does not impede on any pet that needs my attention. I have a variety of cages, leashes, harnesses, and toys for all size dogs if it is not available to the owner. Another benefit I can offer is the fact that since I also work at an animal hospital, if in the event where a pet needs attention while their owner’s are away, I have the access and contacts to help with any needs of that pet as soon as possible, with the permission of the owners.

“Sydney is great! On time, smart, and managed well with both our 14 yr senior dog and our 12 week puppy! When she’s available, my first choice!”


“Eric was wonderful. I have an old ragdoll cat; he took great care of her - feeding, medication, grooming, cleaning her myriad litter boxes - for the two weeks I was gone. It gave me peace of mind to have him in the house. I am so glad I found him - I will definitely use his services next time I travel.”


About: I've taken care of pets of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to check in, feed, and play with their pets... I'm currently working full-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your poppies! I'm available for boarding on weekends and holidays, just let me know in advance. I can’t take care of your dog in my house, I can take it for a walk or take care in your house. I am so socially.

About: Hi! I would love to watch your pet and give them the best time of their life! We can take walks, run in the yard, and play anything from the toy bucket I work part time in the evenings, so message me about availability. If your pet is ok being alone for up to 6 hours, then it won't be an issue 😊 I have a cat that gets along very well with dogs My apartment has 2 rooms so I can keep your pet separate from my kitty if they have a hard time being together I also have a fenced in backyard, plus I live in a nice area with plenty of walking and leaves to play in and trees to mark 😊

About: I’ve had two dogs in my lifetime each for 12 years and I’ve always loved to be around them and to make sure they were safe and felt happy. I treat each pet like family. My reliability, calm demeanor and love for animals make both pets and their owners feel at ease. I will walk the dog everyday and I can board dogs every weekend. I have experience taking care of a French bulldog named Randy. Sometimes I go there to take care of him and other times I bring him to my apartment. I have space in our apartment for the dog to roam around and I live in a safe dog friendly neighborhood in which we can take the dog for long walks near a park and a pond.

“Lindsey was an absolute pleasure! She was kind and amazing to our girls! She was a respectful guest and updated us daily. Will be using her again!”



About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my individualized care. Every animal is unique, and I tailor my approach to their specific needs and personality, ensuring they receive dedicated, personalized attention and genuine companionship, not just a standard service. Caring for animals isn’t just a job for me — it’s a natural part of my daily life. I structure my week around my pet-sitting commitments, making sure each visit gets the time and attention it deserves. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddles, I plan my schedule to match each pet’s routine as closely as possible. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved is something I take seriously every day. When I’m caring for pets in their own homes, my goal is to keep them as comfortable and relaxed as possible by sticking to their usual routines. I take time to get to know each pet’s personality, preferences, and needs — whether that means keeping up with their favorite walking route, feeding schedule, playtime habits, or simply giving them space when needed. I always follow any instructions you provide closely, from medication to mealtime routines, and I keep the home tidy and secure while you're away. I treat every pet and home with respect, as if they were my own.

“Emily did an amazing job caring for my kitties, grateful to have found a sitter who is able to stay at my home with my pets while I’m out of town!”


About: Genuine care for every dog, and understanding their specific needs. Being there for them, consistently, emotionally and physically as if they were my own dog. I have additional experience in care for diabetic dogs and administering insulin. I also have experience in puppy care! Im currently home from school, working part time with a lot of availability both during the week/weekends. I will make time for your dog always. Ensuring all dogs receive appropriate exercise through long walks, attention and diligent supervision. An emphasis on giving dogs needed emotional attention, not just physical presence.

“Isabel is great! She watched my baby for while I was away for a trip and loved on him exactly the way I would. Fleece can be a handle with between his energy and clinginess and Isabel did an amazing job. She was communicative every step of the way followed all care instructions and sent plenty of picture of my baby while I was away. I even had an emergency at the house while I was away and she handled it great! Offering extra help wherever she could. If you need a sitter don’t hesitate to contact Isabel!”


“Sara was wonderful! She sent pictures and kept me informed. Bella loved her and I think misses her. Thanks for everything, Sara. I hope you will dog sit for me again .❤️”


About: I've always been an animal lover through & through. Much to my father's dismay (and my delight), my mother brought home 2 dogs for me and my sister between the years of kindergarten & 2nd grade. As I grew up, I took on more & more responsibilities related to caring for our new canine family members. My husband & I don't currently have a dog mostly due to my work schedule (for that reason we have 2 lovely, social cats, who we adore), so I get my fill by frequently dog-sitting for my parents and sister. Through caring for my parent's dog, I learned about more advanced medication administration and other special needs. I'm innately a genuinely caring & affectionate person who will go beyond the staples of basic care and will make sure your pup feels loved & cherished, like a family member. I work as per diem occupational therapist in home health. I treat residents all over Bergen County, and I make my own schedule, so I'm flexible as long as I know who I'm seeing & where I need to be at least a few days in advance. I am a huge proponent of the Meet & Greet (M&G) session. This is a step that I feel should not be missed, as it helps to minimize the risk of any hiccups, so you can fully enjoy your time spent out of town! At the M&G, you'll show me how I can safely enter your home, where the food and other essential supplies are kept, and you will be encouraged to share info re: your doggy's daily routine, i.e. feeding & play preferences, specific behaviors I should know about, medications if needed, rules re: treats, or if other equipment like crates and/or ramps are necessary, as well as what to do in case of an emergency. Most importantly, it also gives your pup the opportunity to meet me prior to the first dog-sitting session, which I feel is an important exercise in trust-building.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was old enough to know what a dog was! I have dog walked and sat for family, friends, neighbors, and foster parents. I am reliable and trustworthy and will always put your pup first. I am a true dog lover at heart and will do everything I can to make your pup happy! I just graduated college and am looking for work in the healthcare industry before applying to medical school! I am looking to spend time with your pet(s), get some exercise, and make some money in my free time! I am available in the mornings, during the day, and at night! I will do my best to keep your pet to their routine! I am not allowed pets in my current residence. If I stay at your home, I will take every precaution to keep your pup safe and healthy!

Flower R.
“Flower is an amazing person with a big heart, (especially when it comes to pets/animals) and an amazing pet lover, whenever I/we go away for a long period of time we take our cat to her. She alone has a cat and fostered a cat from someone who couldn't take care of it. When she was staying at a friend's who's indoor outdoor cat had baby's outside, she took them in, got the mother to take care of the baby's and took care of the baby's (checked their weight, help one that was constipated, help train them to use the litter boxe etc.) till they were old enough to go to their forever home”

Stephen S.
“Stephen has cared for both my dogs on several occasions now, and I will never use someone else as long as he is available. His knowledge and experience around animals was very clear from the instant he met my pups. One is a pitbull rescue, which scares some people due to the stigma around the breed, but Stephen is beyond sweet and loving with both of them. He is prompt, reliable, and sure to text me photos and updates, which I always appreciate. I couldn’t be more grateful to have found Stephen as a sitter!”

Kyra L.
“My name is Kelley and I am a board member for Mountain Rottie Rescue. I personally have 4 female dogs that cannot be in the same room. As of 6/23/23 if you want to look at mountainrottierescue.net I have yoshi, gin and tyson. Krya is a volunteer with us and she is AMAZING with my dogs. I do not trust many people to come into my house as if you let the wrong door open I have dogs that do not get along. I COMPLETELTY trust Kyra so much she comes to my house when I am not home and takes 90 pound female rottie Yoshi out to parks and on walks. You need a good grip on Yoshi as she will lunge and pull when seeing other animals. Kyra completely understands the safety of this and has even taken Yoshi for weekends. Krya handles some harder dogs at my house and she loves them all. You would be lucky to have her pet sit for you if you can book her now! She even checks in on how my dogs are doing when she does'nt see them, she truly cares.”
