Dog Sitting Upper Saddle River

About: Seven years fostering dogs for three rescue organizations and one year as a Senior Yard Manager at a dog daycare, supervising care, behavior, and safety. have seven years of experience fostering dogs for three different rescue organizations and one year of experience as a Senior Yard Manager at a dog daycare, supervising dog groups, ensuring safety, and supporting daily operations. Although I don't have a fenced yard, I make sure every dog gets plenty of exercise through long neighborhood walks, active playtime, and lots of attention. Dogs are welcome on my furniture, including the bed and couch, and they can sleep in my bed or in a crate based on your preferences. I also enjoy making stuffed Kongs as an evening treat or enrichment activity if you'd like your dog to have one.

“We are very very happy with Julianna’s services. We can always feel confident that our kitties are in good hands. We definitely recommend Julianna!”

About: Dogs have been a part of my life since the day I was born, and caring for them truly feels like my purpose. I have over 20 years of hands-on experience, including dog kennel work, walking, daycare, and overnight sitting. I treat every dog as if they were my own—providing loving, attentive, and reliable care so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. I’m currently available full time to care for your pets! Just need a heads up of your desired schedule for your pups needs to plan ahead. Full fenced 1/2 acre yard with my own giant breed dog who is friendly and loves to play. XL crate available for use if needed. My home is their home while they’re staying with me!

“Raquel took great care of our boys while we were away and was very responsive and prompt. We will definitely request her again for future trips and would recommend her services to others!”

About: I bring over 15 years of devoted experience caring for dogs of every personality and age. From energetic puppies to seniors who need a gentler touch, I've been the person neighbors, friends, and families trust to provide calm, reliable, heart-centered care. What sets me apart is my patience, and my ability to make every dog feel safe, seen, and loved. I can assure you they are being cared for with genuine attention and compassion. Pet care fits natural into my weekly routine because I run my own business and have flexibility. I am able to coordinate the needs of your pet with you on an individual basis. I am very reliable, responsible and loving. Your pet will be treated with the same attentive, loving care I would expect. I provide pet care directly in your home, where your dog feels safest and most comfortable. I follow routine closely to keep everything familiar and stress-free. My focus is on creating a calm, secure environment in your space.

About: Hi there! I can’t wait to welcome your pet into my home. Dogs and cats who stay here are treated like guests of honor, with all the care and attention I bestow upon my own pets. Unless there are extenuating circumstances, pets are allowed to roam freely in a cozy, familiar home environment — no rows of kenneled dogs here! I’m very selective about the pets I accept. I usually only accept a maximum of 3-4 dogs at once. I meet every new pet before booking, and I usually won’t accept more than one new dog at a time, alongside repeat clients. This ensures that I’m familiar with how all the dogs will interact with each other, with only one new variable, thus avoiding potentially uncomfortable or dangerous situations for your pet. I’ve always loved animals, and with more than 15 years of pet care under my belt, I have the knowledge and experience to provide your pets with the best care possible. I take the responsibility of caring for your pets very seriously, and I’m certified by the American Red Cross in Cat and Dog First Aid. Earliest drop off or pickup is at 8 am. Latest drop off or pickup is at 8 pm on weekdays, 9 pm on weekends. I’m also available for drop-ins at your home, every day except Saturday mornings. (I’m available Saturday evenings instead.) For Dogs: I have a large, unfenced backyard that dogs love exploring on a 50-foot long leash - so many scents to sniff and chipmunks to chase! I’m always there to monitor them - dogs are never left alone outdoors. Water is always available, and I work from home so I’m around the majority of the day to keep them happy and safe. What you’ll need to send: Their regular food is the most important thing to send, as dogs can get upset stomach from sudden dietary changes. You can also send their favorite treats, and a favorite toy. If they tend to pull on the leash, a front-latch harness, rubber-tipped prong collar, or gentle leader is appreciated. Bowls, beds, brushes, litter bags etc. are all unnecessary, as I have extras of all these supplies. For puppies, a crate may be necessary, depending on their level of potty training. For Cats: The cats have a comfy lounge downstairs, with food, water, litter boxes, and scratching posts. The dogs are not allowed downstairs, so the cats can get all the space they need from the dogs. The cats are free to move upstairs and downstairs as they prefer. All cats are indoors only. I have a lot of wide, accessible windowsills that they love chilling on to watch birds and squirrels outside, as well as battery-operated and automated toys that they can chase and play with on their own. What you’ll need to send: their regular food (wet and dry) and treats. Cat litter is also appreciated. I work from home, so my schedule is flexible and I’m home most of the day. I have a spacious home that can accommodate giving multiple animals space, and I can keep animals separated from each other if necessary. I've always loved animals of all kinds, and I currently have my own dog and 3 cats. I can't wait to meet your pet, and I promise to love them and care for them the way every pet deserves to be loved!

“Very attentive and helpful to all the pets needs.”

“Christine has been such a blessing for us. We recently brought into our home a wonderful shelter dog who needed a lot of love and attention, and was initially suffering from severe separation anxiety whenever someone would leave the room. It has also been more than 15 years since we've had a dog and needless to say we were rusty. From day 1 of the meet and greet with Christine, our dog Dot immediately felt comfortable around her, our kids listened intently to her suggestions, explanations and stories of her own going through similar experiences. She's provided consistent advice and support (outside the formal drop-in/walking sessions we pay for). She has her own dogs and fosters dogs as well... and it's clear she does not do this for the money, but purely for her love of dogs. She posts updates during every visit, sends pics, cleans up if there's been an accident, and provides ideas/suggestions when she can. I highly recommend her!”

“We had an excellent experience with Sam, who we found to be caring, responsible, and responsive.”

About: I have owned dogs most of my life, always showering them with the love and care they deserve. Now, I want to do the same for your pups! My wife and I both work full time out of the house (I’m in the office four days a week and work from home on Friday), and our kids are in school, so I am available Friday, Saturday and Sunday and over holiday weekends. I have a fenced-in yard and a friendly dog, so your dog will be housed safely, and will have a four-legged friend to play with. I take my dog on frequent walks and would be excited to take yours along with us.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and been around dogs my whole life, I love dogs always have always will. I cannot imagine living life without my dog Kobe who is a mix of bichon/yorkie and he is funny, friendly, and playful and my cat Hazel, she is a senior and is more reserved and always hanging out in my son's room . I am a stay at home mom of one toddler (who is really gentle with dogs), and twins♥️ my schedule is very flexible since I am free all day but must be planned before hand to provide the best pet care possible. I currently live in a condo/townhouse complex in Ramsey (TimberValley), spacious with one dog to play with, it is always clean, we have nice green areas to go for walks, parks within minutes drive and stay active. I do not have a yard unfortunately.

“Joannie is a kind and nurturing. She was respectful of my shy guys comfort zone and took good care of my little dog. Joannie did drop in visits for my older timid Yorkie and worked hard to try to win him over. Would recommend her and plan to use again in future.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 15. Neighbors and friends have relied on me to walk, feed and play with their pets. I am currently taking classes at a college for a few hours a day but have plenty of off time to play with your pets. I have huge yard and deck that the pets can run around in and I have walk my own dog once a day up and down the street.

“Let me say this upfront. I am an overprotective Mama. I know it and I accept it, lol. It is what it is. I tried using a pet sitter once before and I had a terrible experience, hence why it took me well over a year to try again. I took a leap of faith, tried again.....and found Elizabeth! Something magical happens when your pets become more than just pets....they become your children. The trepidation that anyone would have to leave their children with a stranger was quickly dismissed when we realized that Elizabeth was a friend and an enormous pet lover. Her care and concern for Grace, Stella, and Frankie was amplified by the genuine joy that she not only brought to our home but to their lives. Our time away from home was worry free and truly allowed us to enjoy our vacation. She handled all of her responsibilities not only with professionalism but with a honest sense of excitement. I HIGHLY recommend Elizabeth for all of your pet-sitting needs! Elizabeth is the cats meow!!!”

About: If you're looking for a dog-lover and loyal caretaker, I'm here for you and your pet! I'm happy to provide a loving space for your pet while you travel, or walks when needed. I work from home mostly--I am in the office two days a week (every Tuesday and Wednesday.) All other days I am flexible with my schedule. Pets are welcome on my furniture--while they are here, they are free to make themselves comfortable! Playtime, walks and car rides (if they like them) are encouraged.

About: I love animals, grew up with them since I was a baby, Cats, Dogs, Lizards, Fish, and Birds. I think to me they are people with fur. I love meeting new animals and getting to know them and play with and taking care of them. If I had tell you once thing that makes me who I am, is my heart. I always give 110 percent and I am very upbeat and caring. I am an award-winning filmmaker, writer, and actress, and this is the puurfect side hustle for me! I don’t have a typical 9-to-5 schedule, and my hours are always changing depending on which project I’m working on. This gives me the flexibility to provide loving care and attention to your kitty or dog when you need it most. I would prefer to come to your home so your pet can stay in their own familiar environment, where they feel safe, secure, and comfortable. I would always follow the instructions and routines you provide first. If you don’t have any specific instructions, I like to let the pet set the pace. With cats, I’ll give them space and let them come to me when they’re ready. I’ll feed them according to the schedule you recommend, and I’ll spend time getting to know their personality and seeing what they enjoy. If they want to play, I’ll play with them! If they prefer to relax, I’ll let them do their thing while keeping a watchful eye on them and making sure they’re happy and comfortable. For dogs, I’ll make sure they get plenty of exercise and attention. I’ll take them for walks and, when appropriate, we can visit a nearby park to help them burn off some energy. I’ll make sure they have fresh water and food, and I also enjoy working on fun training exercises and basic commands such as sit, down, and paw. This gives them a chance to exercise both their body and their mind. After some play and training, we’ll go for another walk to help them wind down and get ready for bedtime. And if you have me stay over to the next day I will work on a schedule you set forward. Depending on what type of dog breeds need different type of support.

“Danielle was so thorough and helpful in taking care of our girls! She is so friendly and made sure to capture every detail about our girls routine and personalities. She was so attentive to our dogs and it really put us at ease while we were away for a long weekend.”
