“Carolina took such good care of our two dogs. They had so much fun playing with her dog as well. She sent daily updates about how they were doing which was perfect since we were so far away from home for over a week. We really appreciated her taking care of them. We highly recommend her loving care.”

“Lisa was very kind and caring with my Junie. She sent me texts and pictures and I was put at ease immediately. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to using her services again.”

“Sujanna was WONDERFUL! She took thoughtful care of our Toby and went above and beyond. Toby got lots of love and attention the entire time he was there. Toby will definitely be back. We highly recommend Sujanna!!!”
“Our yorkie Bella had a great weekend with Monica and Kelvin! They even offered to bring her home to us! They are super kind and attentive- we have used them before and highly recommend them!”

“Pam and her family are wonderful! Clearly very caring and capable! They have a great, quiet neighborhood perfect for walks. Very responsive communication! Highly recommend and will definitely book again!”
“This was the first time we used Rover and Jennifer. Our experience with both was great. Jennifer was so caring and Judge had a great time while there. We would definitely use her again and recommend her as well.”

“Juan and his family took great care of our dog while we were out of town for a week. He was quick to respond to our messages and provided us with updates as to how she was doing. We would gladly use his services again in the future.”

“Maureen and her family were amazing! Mocha was well taken care of, we got daily updates and pictures, and she was so responsive to anything we'd needed! When I arrived to pick Mocha up, he jumped on me to say hi, and then immediately sprinted to the back of the house (not the front door) cause he'd had such a good time there!”

“Melissa and her entire family were great. Our highly energetic Australian Shepherd had a wonderful stay. Melissa sent us updates including pictures and videos. Bailey was walked and had play time with several other dogs. We had great confidence in leaving our dog with Melissa and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for care.”

“Kun, his wife and their pup Som were incredible hosts to Thor! They were amazing communicators, consistently kept you updated, and were extremely mindful to ask about any health concerns, allergies or tendencies. Thor was very sad to leave them but he will definitely see them again! They also provided us with the cutest Polaroid photo of him and Som! Thank you both so much for allowing Thor to stay with you!!”

“Ricky had a great time spending the weekend with Britany and her family! We loved seeing all the pictures knowing that he was getting all the cuddles he needed. Will definitely use Britany again.”

“Elizabeth and Oleg took such great care of Maia! When I picked her up she was smiley, tired from all the playtime (Maia loves to play and they followed instructions), and so happy. They were so helpful and communicative, I’m already looking to book ahead for November.”

“Christina was so communicative and Neptune seemed very well looked after while I was away for a week. When I described Neptunes potential reactivity she took it all in stride and he did very well while he was there, which I’m so grateful for. I will definitely use her services again!”

“Mickey was great! His entire household was very welcoming and he understood our senior dog’s needs. He was great at keeping us up to date with pictures and texts and made sure Duke was comfortable. Highly recommend!!”

“Rhea and Michael were absolutely the best! My dog Frankie is 11 years old, he doesn’t like being around a lot of other dogs, he was very comfortable spending the week with Rhea and Michael while we were in the Bahamas. Rhea sent a lot of pictures and I could see how happy he was! They took great care of him and kept me updated! I will definitely be using them again!”

“Joannie was great with everything! So happy we found her to watch our senior dog Layla. Communication was great from the start to the end. Joannie made Layla feel so at home and loved.”

“This was our first time using Rover and we were in great hands with Kia. She was very responsive, sent tons of photos and kept us updated on how our pup was doing while we were away.”

“Joseph was absolutely fantastic with my cats! He even got an extremely shy cat who never comes out for anyone to approach him within the first few days - she's never warmed to anyone that fast before. He was always friendly and punctual, with lots of photos to show for it. The cats are really happy and so am I!”


“Alexa was so communicative and great with my cat! He takes oral medication and she handled it so well. Thank you, Alexa!! I felt very comfortable leaving my cat home alone for a week knowing you were checking on him.”


“Allie took such good care of my nervous kitty! Her updates gave me peace of mind during my trip. Can't thank her enough for helping Leo stay on his routine and keeping him safe and well fed!”

“I am very fortunate to have found Yang to take care of my girls for a week. Yang was extremely kind, trustworthy, communicative, caring, responsible, prepared, thoughtful and generous. In our meet and greet she brought a notebook, connected with my cats and asked great questions before leaving. She offered to bring her own brush to groom my one cat, wore shoe covers to keep my place clean and even brought her own litter bags to take away each day. The level of detail and attention she provided throughout the whole experience was something I have never experienced from a pet sitter and the genuine bond she formed with my cats made me exceedingly assured, content and happy knowing they had her presence and care while I was away. I can’t recommend Yang enough and will pick her as my sitter going forward.”


“Katie watched our boy again and she is wonderful! We felt at ease knowing she was caring for him. All the pictures and updates were great and he is so happy with her. Can’t thank you enough!”


“Arabella was the best! Showed up as requested, took the time to show my cats attention, not just feed and run! It took me a long time to find a trustworthy person to take care of my babies. She is sent from heaven!!!”

“Pam was great, very timely visits and lots of updates. My kitties looked very content in their daily photos and I felt like they were in very good hands while we were away. Definitely highly recommend and will hire again!”


“Kerri did a great job taking care of our cat, Ash, while we were away on vacation. She arrived every day at the agreed-upon time, completed the tasks we requested, and even took extra time to play with our kitty. She communicated with us each day, giving us the peace of mind that everything was OK while we were away. Kerri is definitely the first one I'm calling for our next vacation.”

“Hansa is our new favorite catsitter! She is especially sensitive and caring toward cats, and understands them beautifully. She is professional, communicative and will always ask permission before handling a situation. Our cats LOVE her! We came home from a holiday trip and Hansa took such wonderful care of everything. Our homes were clean and smelled fresh! And our fur babies seemed genuinely happy, and well-taken care of.. no mommy guilt for me!! We are so grateful ! Definitely booking Hansa again!”


About: I was raised around both cats and dogs and still take care of many today. I am the first person friends & family call if they ever need a sitter for their cats or just advice on any issues they’re having as new cat owners. I’ve trained my own cats as they’ve grown old to stick to the litter box right when they started to act out. I’ve also helped raise cats that were abandoned and found them proper care.

About: Although I haven’t had any cats in my home throughout my life, I am experienced with cats and love them so so much! I’ve helped friends and family take care of their cats throughout my life, and helped take care of the cats boarding at my job this past year!
“Nicole was awesome! She exceeded my expectation. She administered injections for my recently diagnosed diabetic cat who I was nervous about leaving. She sent pictures of him and sent me updates all along the way.He was comfortable with her and looked great while I was away. I would recommend her 100%!”

“Pam took great care of our cat Machack ( aka Chi Chii). It is evident she cares about pets she takes care of the same way she would for her own. She is a prompt communicator, and in addition to smooth and organized drop off and pick up, we were kept informed on Chi Chi’s stay on a regular basis. We really had a wonderful experience with Pam and are planning to leave Chi Chi in her care again in the near future. Thank you Pam!”

“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!”

“I was passing thru the area and wanted to make a brief stop to see the lilacs at the NJ Botanical Gardens. Since I read that dogs were not allowed, I needed to find a trustworthy sitter nearby. Wenxin to the rescue! She was so sweet and attentive, and my shy Havanese quickly warmed up to her. Should I ever be in the area again, I will definitely bring Cleo back!”

“Monica and Kelvin came through for us when our plans changed unexpectedly and we desperately needed someone to look after our dogs for the day. They both work from home so the dogs were not left alone at all which was great. They have a big fenced in yard. They were friendly and answered all our questions when setting up the day care and they are experienced dog owners themselves. Monica kept in touch with us throughout the day and our pups were happy and exhausted from their day trip when we picked them up.”

“Katherine is soo kind loving and genuine, Loves Animals my Jake Beagle loved her she sent pictures and daily accounts of him he is 13 years old Just like Home i was truly impressed with her Nobody Better !! Joe”

“Aeli is an amazing sitter. I try to choose sitters who have their own dogs so my own can socialize. I think (since I can’t read her mind) my pup had a great time. Aeli sent numerous pictures which were greatly appreciated. We will definitely book again!”

“Melissa was great with my dog, Blaze! She not only provided Blaze with much needed exercise on her daily walks, but she almost always stuck around to give a little tender love and care to our pooch. She also brought in our mail, which was an unexpected perk. I highly recommend Melissa. She is a reliable and loving caretaker of dogs.”
“As pet parents, our greatest concern is the safety and joy of our animals. When my pup Frank and I started working with Joannie, I knew I wouldn't have to worry about either while Frank was in her care. She has proven to be professional, caring, and patient when it comes to her time with Frank, especially considering he is in his puppy phase. She always provides great feedback and equally fantastic pictures from their walks together. I look forward to having her look after Frank more! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for help with their fur family!”


“Alexandra is incredibly kind and gentle. She was so patient with our Lani, who’s scared of just about everything, and really respected our request to keep greetings and goodbyes calm and low-key to help prevent separation anxiety. She takes her time, used the treats for getting boots on!) And gives Lani the full walk time without rushing. We feel very comfortable with her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive walker.”


“Eilleen is the best! We’re so lucky to have found her. Lucy loves her so much and they have the best time together. Super reliable, friendly, and responsive! Thanks, Eilleen!”

“Lindsey did an amazing job with Max. She took her time to learn his personality, his walking preferences, and made sure he got good exercise. Max enjoyed his walks and loves Lindsey already.”

“Lisbeth has been a wonderful addition to our family of pet caretakers! She is always on time and polite, and Ravioli always has a good walk- looking forward to having Lisbeth help us for a long time!”

About: I have over 20 years of experience providing occasional care for both dogs and cats. During this time, I have handled a variety of breeds and personalities, ensuring pets receive reliable attention, feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. I’m comfortable administering basic care routines and pride myself on being dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I also have experience caring for chickens, ducks, birds, guinea pigs, hamsters and fish I currently work a split schedule job during the week so I am available for several hours during the daytime, plus evenings and weekends to care for you pets. I care for pets as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I follow each pet’s routine closely, provide plenty of playtime and companionship, and keep a close eye on their health and happiness. I also keep the home secure and share updates so families have peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands.

“I am unable to walk my dog due to an injury, and he has pretty high energy so needs long walks to tire him out. She treated my doggie like her own and took him on a very long walk as requested. She even asked if she could bring treats as the "icebreaker" when meeting him and for the walk to distract him, since I told her that he has a high prey drive and will rush/bolt after anything furry that moves. It is obvious that she is very experienced with large dogs who have a lot of energy, and my dog came back very happy and ready for a nap as I had hoped. I will absolutely book her again if my husband or I are not available to do the long walk ourselves.”

About: I am a life-long animal lover. I grew up with dogs, a cat, a rabbit and anything else I could convince my parents to house! I've been riding horses since an early age as well. Connecting with animals has always come very naturally to me. I truly enjoy caring for and loving animals. My first job, at the age of 13, was as a daily after-school dog-walker, for my neighbor's Old English Sheepdog, Winston. That 30 minutes was the highlight of my weekdays. Animals and their pet parents have been finding me ever since! :) I work in the school system and my days end at 3:10pm. I am available most weekdays after 3:30pm for drop-in visits and walks. I also have weekend availability. My schedule will be much more open & flexible during the summer! During visits, I focus purely on your pet and his/her needs. Drop-ins are normally feeding, a potty break & fresh air, some playtime, water change, a treat (if that's okay by you!) and of course, lots of LOVE. I will tailor the play activities to your pets preferences and energy level for the best experience. During walks, I will remain consistent with the usual pace and route. My goal is for your pet to receive the right amount of activity & stimulation and feel comfortable and happy in my company. I will always make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and looked after as if he/she is my own. :)

My dream job is a veterinarian Right now I’m in school but I graduate on June 25th and then in the month of July I work 9-12 at my summer camp so anytime after that I am free My two cats and one dog are super friendly to any new visitors. I try to spend as much quality time with the animals because they deserve it

About: I’ve been caring for animals since taking my first steps! I truly love spending time with animals! Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, and I always do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply some extra attention while you’re away, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. As a recent college graduate pursuing a career in medicine, I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time with animals. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet care throughout the week and weekends. I’m dependable, communicative, and committed to providing pets with the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. As a future healthcare professional and lifelong animal lover, I take responsibility and safety seriously. I pay close attention to each pet’s needs, behavior, and routine, and I’m happy to provide photo updates throughout visits. I strive to create a calm, safe, and positive experience for every pet.
About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. Growing up my family and I have adopted 3 dogs. I absolutely love working with dogs - big, small, old, hyper, I’m your gal! I have a couple years of experience working at a doggy day care as well as some dog bathing services. I’m a junior currently attending Ramapo College. I commute to class and am available for multiple days a week. I’m usually always available on the weekends! I have a fenced yard for my dog but she is not the friendliest. I tend to bring her to the dog park where she gets along with other dogs in a bigger/more open area.

It's so expansive, spacious and very safe, it's like a luxury dog hotel! They are such kind people and really made Peanut feel so welcome and right at home. Over the July 4th weekend, they went above and beyond by sending me adorable photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind.

That flexibility meant so much to us. We’re so grateful for her care and would definitely book with her again!”
