Emily was great my little old man, rocky. She was patient with his walks and sent me pics to keep me updated. Will definitely be using her services again!

We couldn’t be more pleased with our experience with Megan! She took wonderful care of our 11-week-old poodle puppy while we were away for ann evening. Communication with her was excellent from start to finish, and she was very easy to work with. Our puppy was happy and well-cared for when we returned, and we felt completely at ease knowing she was in good hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!

Michael is the BEST. He took care of our house and our cats with patience, humor, respect, and care. He sent photos, funny info, and kept us updated on their antics. A couple of things went wrong in the house while we were away (nothing to do with Michael) and he handled them with complete grace. I felt at ease while we were away and would not hesitate to hire Michael again. And again!! We recommend him 200%!!

The dog was happy and the place was standing. In the end that's all that matters but a decent person who communicates well with an honest smile on their face and a personality to match makes the whole thing run smoother.

About: I’ve been blessed to walk, sit & board my friends/Neighbors/family dogs since I was about 11, I fell in love immediately! I’m not a vet or anything but me being very sympathetic for animals has always earned me a new little furry bestfriend. Even strangers dogs love to interact with me, I’m like part of the pack! I am currently working Full time as a dog walker/Sitter!! Weekends I am free but I am a youth football coach so if you have pups who love kids & running around I’d love for them to tag along! I am also a pro gamer so 1 day in a week/weekend I travel out of NJ & come back next morning. I have a well sized gated backyard & my neighbor has a pack of dogs that can keep your pups company besides me, no grass unfortunately but I live by parks & have grass on the block. Inside I have 4 spacious rooms they can wander around, hardwood floors so very easy to clean up after.

I cannot recommend Leticia enough! It was evident that she has a genuine love for animals. She spent time with Ollie and Rain and made sure to follow my care instructions perfectly. I received regular updates and adorable photos that put my mind at ease. Her professionalism and attention to detail were impressive, and I truly felt that my pets were in the best hands. I will definitely be using their services again in the future! If you’re looking for a reliable and compassionate cat sitter, look no further!

Katie and Zayn were so great. We are so over protective of our pup, but unfortunately had to leave him alone shortly after a major orthopedic surgery and were pretty anxious about the prospect. Katie and Zayn were so kind, caring, and responsive that we ended up feeling more than comfortable leaving him with them. They scheduled a call beforehand to talk through all our concerns gave us updates throughout the day. Overall very positive experience, met all needs and exceeded expectations. I will definitely be hiring them again.

Nicole is AMAZING! She treated my 3 dogs as if they were her own and I couldn't be happier with her services. She sent tons of pics/videos throughout the stay and was always super responsive any time I had a question. Nicole understands how much our fur babies mean to us so I was at ease leaving my dogs with her. She did a great job taking care of them and I look forward to using her again!

Jonny was absolutely pawsome! He treated our 1-year-old Golden Retriever, Ollie, like his own furry child. Not only did he keep us updated with plenty of Ollie pics (because, let’s be real, we’re obsessed), but he also made sure we felt totally relaxed with Ollie in his care. Highly, highly recommend Jonny – he’s top dog in our book, and we’ll definitely be calling him again! 🐾

Could not have been happier with Alyssa, both for her adoration of our girl Zoee (it was mutual!) and for the care she showed for our house (she left us flowers on the counter, was thoughtful throughout the week, and everything was 100% clean and tidy). Loved the photos and updates. She’s wonderful and we’ll be adding her to take care of our Zoee again, likely quite soon.

Jessica stayed in our home for one week while we were out of town- and we are so relieved to have found our go-to sitter! From the time of our meet-and-greet Jessica showed she was not only reliable, but observant to our dog's habits and particular needs. It was important to us to find someone who would not only understand his quirky personality, but also be dominant enough to maintain the training we are working on. Jessica is very calm and patient. She checked in with us a couple of times a day with updates and photos, and our boy looked very relaxed and happy. She gave him all the love he needed, and play time to work out his energy. She dedicated her week to him and that made us feel so much more comfortable being far away. Jessica left our house in perfect order, and even made some things easier for us to come home to (very sweet and appreciated!), and she left us a final overview of the week's happenings. We will be booking Jessica again soon!

Reujen is wonderful with our dogs. He made sure that lucky felt comfortable and enjoyed his time while I was away for a trip. I always had a hard time not being able to find a trustworthy petsitter but thankfully I found Reujen! He will make sure your furbaby is safe and happy. Definitely would recommend!

Hi I’m Charisma’s mother. I just wanted to let whomever is reading this know if you leave your dog, cat, or wherever kind of pet with her she will take great care of them. She has a way with animals since she was a child. She has a way with people too. She is very kind, intelligent and loving. She loves animals. You can absolutely trust her with your babies. She wouldn’t hurt a soul.

Elissa was awesome. Everything you want for your pet, Elissa gave. She was loving and caring for our dog, Gus. She was so attentive and took care of the house too. She shared photos and video and asked questions. We were so at ease with her taking care of him that we stopped checking in even. He is a German Pointer and so he loves snuggling as much as exercise and we got it all and could not be more grateful to Elissa.

Please know that you will not find a better pet sitter than Audra. Possibly the most caring human I have ever met. Trustworthy, responsible, affectionate and honest are just some adjectives I would use to describe Audra. Her love of dogs and cats is boundless. She has a fantastic home and she should be your number one choice for a pet sitter. She is simply awesome.
