“Elizabeth has been our dog walker and I can say she is so good with our puppy Kylo! She constantly updates us to ensure he’s exercised and kept busy! We trust her to know our little pup is always safe! Would recommend to anyone for petcare!”
“Eilleen is AMAZING!!! Benji is our little rescue cutie! But he has days where he is a bit unpredictable- He is a cuddle bug on his own terms, can be moody and antisocial. As his "fun" aunt (I'm treat and playtime central haha) you would think he would jump for joy at the chance to take a walk with me but, that isn't the case :( He is very particular about who walks him and only let's his dad walk him. So on days dad is working overtime, I stress about how I will convince Benji to go outside. One Sunday he refused to go out they entire day, not one budge and just hid under the table. Dad was working and I was stressing! Well, Eilleen to the rescue! Upon arrival Benji greeted her at the door, like they were forever friends, hopping, tail wagging and cuddles! In amazement I watch Eilleen put kn his leash with out any hesitation from Benji and in a matter of minutes they were off on their walk together! I am so amazed by the instant connection they have and Eilleens impressive job of caring for him. We are so very thankful!! Thank you Eilleen!!!!!!! You are truly the BEST!!”
“Brandon was a huge help!! Thank you so much!!”
“Natalie is amazing! Very responsive, gives lots of love and attention to my dog, and loves her like her own! Thanks so much.”
“I highly recommend Ewelina. Ewelina was great with my Rosie. My Rosie who’s a Shih Tzu can be a little difficult at times but was happy to have Ewelina. When she refused to go out for a walk, Ewelina was able to play with her and coax her into putting on her harness and leash. She took great care of her between walking and playing. Will definitely use her again.”
“Willery did an excellent job walking my 65 pound boxer named Deebo. She followed all care instructions throughly and communicated with me about his progress constantly. I highly recommend her for your pet care needs.”
“Andrea did a great job with my 2 dogs. They really liked her and she was very patient with them. It was easy to communicate with her and she gave us so many pics of the daily walks. Being able to have trust on the person that’s handling your fur babies is so rare so I’m glad we met Andrea.”
“We have been using Neil for several months now and our Shepard "Thor" is in love with him. He gets so excited even if we say his name when he's not around. If we say "uncle Neil" he runs to the window and looks for him! Truly an amazing and caring man that puts 150% into his furry friends! We highly recommend Neil to anyone that needs this service. Thank you NEIL!”
“Rhea and Michael should be the first person booked in the Northern NJ area. We forgot to leave the device to get into the house today and they stuck around while I came home to let them in. Our previous dog walker from rover would have said they walked the dog and left. They go above and beyond every time. Simply the best!!!!!!”
“I knew from the second we met Kelsey that she would be fabulous. She loves my dogs like they are her own. She’s very responsible, always on time and my two boys love her.”
“Sabrina was amazing for the first time with my crazy pup punctual very informed about her time with my dog and sent pics using her again Absolutely loved her”
“Morgan was fantastic with Kyrie. She walked her a few times this week and made sure to feed her afterwards. Morgan was super nice when we first met her and she took notes on how to care for Kyrie along with great questions she asked to make sure based on the weather. Detail oriented and reliable, thanks so much!!”
“I’m so glad I found Enis! He is an incredible and reliable dog walker who cares so much for my dog! Always communicating with me and giving updates throughout. I always know Riggs is in the best care!”
“Karen was a great dog walker. We had our initial meet and greet with her and she was very understanding with how our dogs were with new people. She was very patient and kind with them. I loved the updates with photos she put on their report card, I could see that they were being well taken care of. She would keep me updated when I needed to refill their doggy bags. My dogs quickly liked her and would patiently wait by the door for her to come. As an anxious dog mom, I was able to trust her completely. I would highly recommend Karen for any pet needs.”
“Elissa is amazing! She is super nice and very responsible. She walks my dog several times a week and I never had an issue. Always on time and she makes sure he gets good exercise and some play time. Highly recommend!”
About: I worked at a doggy day care for 7 years. Worked on training with my own, friends, and family. I have a dog and 2 cats of my own, and I am self-taught on cat and dog breeds and behavior. Can administer medications (if the pet allows, if the pet is fighting to much I will not stress them too much). Experience with all ages. I have experience with various forms of feisty pets, I will not force them to do anything they don't want to do, but I am willing to work on building a relationship with them and ensure that you have a competent caretaker for your pets. I work part time but my schedule is fairly consistent, with weekends off. My early morning are generally free, as well as my late evenings. Some times may be negotiable. We all have busy lives and I would love to help make sure your pets are loved and cared for. Currently I am unavailable most Tuesdays and between 12pm-6:30pm I unfortunately do not have the ability to keep any other pets in my home. In my clients homes I will follow all rules and instructions to care for your pets. We can go over walk times, play times, enrichment methods, medications. If you're pet has reactivity issues/displays any reactive behavior towards people, I would like to do several meetings to go over any rules and develop a little bit of a relationship first. I do have experience with reactivit, and every pet is different. My goal is for the safety and happiness of everyone involved.
“It's a glorious peace of mind when u know u have a reliable person who cares for ur pet. We're grateful 🥰 to have an awesome sitter like him to come by the house and watch over our Beloved Buddy 🐕. He was willing to deal with our difficult/defensive pup.U can count on Reujen to respect ur home and make sure ur pets needs are met. He even came during the first real snow storm of the season. He also didn't mind turning our pets snakes light on and off while we were away.”
“John is excellent, reliable, and communicative! My dog loves him.”

Andrew did a wonderful job. He gave a detailed recap of the walks and was also timely. Will definitely be a return customer.
Donna is so pleasant and my dog instantly fell in love with her. We feel fortunate to have Donna available to be our dog’s walker/caretaker when needed. So reliable.
Giselle was amazing. We just moved in and needed someone last minute to walk my dog. Giselle was respectful and reliable. She was also so sweet with my dog. I will absolutely be requesting her services in the future.

Natalie is an excellent walker. She walked Scout 3x per day for about 4 days when I was out of town. She was communicative, thoughtful, and my grandmother who was watching Scout said that Scout liked her a lot. Scout is tiny and nice so it’s important to me to find good walkers for her. A very trustworthy and kind dog walker! We will use her again and I recommend her service.
