“Monica was an awesome sitter for my mahina. She worked with my last minute booking, and was flexible when I needed an extension. I adored the pictures she sent us while I was away. I whole heartedly recommend Ms. Monica as a 5 star sitter.”
“Ms. Leila was responsive and accepted my booking request quickly. She sent pictures of my dog without me asking. I appreciated that. My dog returned home tired from an obvious good day for her.”
“Truly everything you could want in a pet sitter! She is an experienced dog lover who will take care of your pup with the same care as her own. The perfect place for any active dog! Proactive with updates (and great photos and videos from their adventures) and very responsive. Could not recommend more!”
“Katie provided wonderful care for our dog at her residence while we were away. She took the time to get to know myself and my dog prior to her stay. It was our lab's first time boarding and Katie sent updates regularly throughout the day which helped ease the transition. Katie's professionalism, passion and love for the animals was evident throughout the entire experience. Highly recommend!”
“Wow, what a great experience! Was smooth from beginning to end. Abner was able to accomodate our request to have our dog stay solo last minute which put us at ease because she can be reactive to other animals. She can be anxious and take time to warm up but Abners peaceful demeanor made drop off so easy, zero stress or barking! She just skipped right into his house and barely looked back to say goodbye😆. Abner went above and beyond with lots of photo updates and even gave her a bath because she was so interested in his tub! Abner provided walks and completely spoiled our dog with no crate time and cuddles..thank you so much Abner for your gentle and attentive service. You are our go-to next time we book a trip to Great Wolf Lodge!”
About: I will give your dog(s) my undivided attention. They will be fed and taken for walks. I will engage with them throughout the day, as I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I will care for them just like they were my own pet. Being a dog owner myself, I understand how much they mean to their families. In case of an emergency at home or work, I will provide the necessary care for your dogs. I have a unique bond with every dog I meet and truly enjoy their company, ensuring they receive plenty of affection. In the past, I have cared for my family's dogs, feeding and walking them nearly every day. I am knowledgeable about how to handle dogs safely. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to dog-sit and walk the dogs entrusted to my care. Pet caring is one of my passion because they bring so much joy to our lives. With this being said after work I do appreciate the love my fur babies give me. I love to play and run with fur babies and I also get my weekly exercise in! I have a yard that they can run freely in. They will have access to my balcony for when they need cooling and some quiet.
“We recently had the pleasure of having Nicolas care for our beloved dog, Mazzie, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From start to finish, it was clear that our pup was in great hands. Mazzie went on long walks, had incredible play time with their dog Sinatra, and we received tons of wonderful pictures, making our time away. It was evident that they were genuinely passionate about animals, and Mazzie was instantly comfortable, which gave us such peace of mind. Overall, we couldn’t recommend this pet sitter highly enough. They treated Mazzie as if she were their own, and we will definitely be using them again in the future. If you’re looking for reliable, compassionate, and attentive care for your furry family member, look no further!”
“Bodhi loved staying with Melissa and Angel! He was well taken care of and had a lot of fun with their son and the other dogs they were watching. I'd definitely reach out to them again to watch him.”
“I have a five-month-old puppy that Kevin kept overnight for me this past weekend. He sent me updates and pictures. Winchester came home very happy. I would definitely recommend Kevin for your pet sitting needs”
“Seb was great with Prince. He kept me updated and took plenty of pictures. He was very patient with Prince too since he still has accidents every now and again. I would absolutely book with Seb again!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! It is clear how much Joanne truly cares for animals. She was incredibly sweet, attentive, and treated my dogs like her own. I came home to happy, well-cared-for pups—and that peace of mind is priceless! She kept me updated, was easy to communicate with, and went above and beyond. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and genuinely loving toward animals.”
“Aleja is amazing with my Milo!! She updates me with pictures each day and I can always tell he is being taken care of very well. Milo has a lot of energy and every time I pick him up he sleeps for HOURS!! That’s how I know Aleja keeps him active and engaged! I always book with Aleja when in the area!”
“I had an amazing experience with Alaine as my dog sitter. She was highly responsive, providing daily photos and a detailed "report card" summarizing Brizo's activities and well-being during the four-night stay. Alaine took exceptional care of Brizo, and her own dog, Pasta, was a wonderful host too. I highly recommend Alaine for her attentiveness, communication, and genuine love for animals. Brizo can't wait to visit again soon!”
“Maria is a great sitter! She watched our Rocco for 2 weeks, kept us up to date daily with pictures and was even willing to take him to our vet when he was having an upset stomach. Highly recommend and will be using her again in the future.”
“Kaipo loved Scotts home. He was so excited to be there. Nice big yard to run around in and other dogs to play with as well. One of the biggest changes I noticed after Kaipos' stay was that he now returns the ball to me when we play fetch. He would never do that before. Keep away was his favorite game. Took him to dog park and I was throwing the ball for him for nearly an hour. He bought it back every time, dropped it and waited for me to pick it up and throw it again. That was a nice change and I want to thank Scott for fixing that. I had fun.”
“Kathryn was great and I’m pretty sure my dogs didn’t want to come home ! Lol. She kept me updated and sent some pics through out their stay and was very easy to work with and contact when needed.”

“Tammie was an absolute lifesaver while I was on vacation! She came three times a day to care for my cat, including administering oral medication, which can be a challenge—but she handled it with total professionalism and care. She was always on time, incredibly communicative, and sent regular updates that really helped me relax while I was away. When our flight was unexpectedly delayed, she didn’t hesitate to make additional last-minute visits to make sure my cat was safe and comfortable. Her flexibility and dedication truly went above and beyond. It’s such a relief to know my pet is in such capable and compassionate hands. I will 100% be booking with Tammie again and can’t recommend her highly enough!”

About: Like most I have had dogs my entire life but my last soul mate of 16 years died a year ago and I cannot bring myself to get another dog. That being said, we love animals in this household and want them around all the time...I think you get it. My other job is a professional nature photographer so not only will you get amazing photos of your dog, I can bring them with me on my assignments if you like. Like I said in my experience, my other job is a professional photographer giving me hours and hours at my house editing my work. Also, my partner Julie is a yoga teacher who works for herself so there is always someone home. The most important thing is that it is your dog, your rules. We have the most inviting back yard but it is not fenced, however, our house is in a rural community with great neighbors. Your dog will never be off a leash if that is your wish.

“Thalia accepted my reservation right before we had to leave for a trip and my cat needed medication to be given 2x a day. Thalia took care of it no problem, sent me photos where I could see how the eye was looking and made me feel at ease. My cat was so happy, healthy and well cared for. I will definitely be rebooking. Highly recommend”

About: Hi! I’m an experienced pet sitter and dog walker based out of Newton, NJ. Animals are my life! I’ve been working full time in petcare for close to four years, and as a caretaker for many years. Before going into dogcare full time, I was most recently working as a nursing home aid, and CHHA. Before that, I worked with farm animals at the Turtle Back Zoo, and volunteered with the cat adoption agency, ‘Kitty Kind.’ I’ve had and taken care of my dogs, as well as others, ever since I was a little girl. I missed working with our four-legged friends, and I’m very happy to have returned to this fuzzier kind of work. Right now at home, I’ve got two Malamute Labrador mixes. Needless to say, I do have experience handling big dogs, though I love the little ones, too! I am available for overnights, in most cases, so long as I’m not on schedule for another client. My main duty right now is taking care of my animals at home, so I’m also happy to take on whatever odd shifts people may need help with. How I would care for a client’s fuzzy friend would be an entirely personalized experience. I want to know how YOU want them taken care of, and what you are comfortable with and looking for. Then, I will enthusiastically and reliably fill that role, whilst ensuring a safe and protective experience for your pet.

“Leila was awesome … I appreciated she took care of my fur babies. She was able to make them comfortable and calm after a challenging morning. I appreciate Leila and her family.”
“Super sweet, professional, and accommodating- loved the updates and my pup had the best time!! I think my dog has a new best friend! 😂🤍 thanks for taking such good care of our little guy”
About: My name is Monica. I have taken care of pets for over 29 years. I currently have 3 cats both neutered. One is a senior 15 yrs old, then there is 7 yrs and 1 yr. They keep to themselves. Over the years many dogs and cats have came and went each showing their individuality. Each pet has a need which will be met according to your standards. If you book me for a Board or even a day stay I promise to have you and your furry friend 100% satisfied. I can also walk them,and do drop bys. Your pet will always have someone around in my home(if they like children). It can be hard to find someone as trustworthy as it is for me. They are just as much children and finding the right person takes time. I'm willing to show I am trustworthy And will treat them as my own. I have 3 floors,so if any pets I care for needs personal space I can accommodate. We also have a spare room where they can relax. Due to health I can only take dogs up to 18 lbs.

My house has unfenced yard I have 2 floors,so if any pets I care for needs personal space I can accommodate. We also have a spare room where they can relax.
About: I’ve been around dogs and animals in general since a young age, with my grandpa running a small farm. I’ve grown up around breeds like German Shepherds, and have always taken care of friends’ dogs while they were in vacation. I learned a lot from my fiancé, who ran a successful dog walking business in New York City Give yourself peace of mind, your dog is in safe, loving, caring hands. I’m currently working from home with a special schedule which I take advantage of as it frees up a lot of time during the day. Pet care fits into it quite easily, as I have a daily routine I follow which includes dog walks, time with the dogs outside and of course feedings (and tending medicine when needed). I have a home situated on a quiet, secluded private lot that backs up onto a river with several trails within a short walking distance. The yard is secluded, well shaded and has ample space. I take care to be active with the dogs, so I usually toss frisbees or play fetch several times a day to keep them content. I walk my dogs twice around the neighborhood. Besides home, I have a number of dog-friendly trails and parks both in East Stroudsburg and nearby where I bring the dogs for some quality time outside. This includes hiking on trails and in the mountains, bringing the dogs to rivers or lakes, I mix it up each week depending on the weather conditions. Any time I go on an outdoor adventure, I make sure I have the owner’s consent. Their dogs will always be hydrated and have a snack. I only ask that if your dog has specific dietary needs or is taking medication, that you provide me with the necessary information and schedule. I have two modes of transport for dogs, both of which offer plenty of space, safety and comfort for the dogs while en route.
“This was my first time using this site , and I was really lucky to have Deb take care of our dog Crockett. Deb kept me updated with pictures and activities which made me feel comfortable and relaxed. Will definitely contact her again”
“My pup Farrah is in her glory when staying with Hannelie. She has room to roam and two great pups to play with. Hannelie prioritizes safety and fun, leaving me with nothing but confidence that Farrah has the best care.”
“They were warm and welcoming from the beginning. Emma seemed comfortable wandering around their home and being with them. They saved me just by being available on Thanksgiving! I would definitely use them again!!”

“I left my 11 week old cane corso with Carolina. He quickly became comfortable with her and her dog. She was very professional. Send lots of videos, pictures and updates on how he was doing.

About: Taking care of animals is my calling! They love me and I love them. I’ve always enjoyed working with animals since a young age. I have worked in the dog grooming business training to hopefully own my own dog hotel in the near future! I also have worked at boarding facilities for dogs/cats. I have found that I truly love anything that provides a better space for animal boarding/care. I’m excited to have expanded my experience in dog sitting/walking! I will be offering grooming to the pups I dog sit/walk so feel free to ask about getting a bath/groom! Currently I work full time at a veterinary facility/grooming facility. I can provide my services so long as the dates are available on my schedule! :) Each pet would be cared for differently according to their needs. Lots of love will be given to each dog I sit/walk, if allowed a few treats and toys for good behavior, and safety for the dogs and myself will be the main priority.
About: I have worked with animals for most of my life and have experience caring for a wide range of animals, from dogs to horses. I have previously worked at a dog boarding facility for two years, where I handled daily care, feeding, cleaning, and exercise. I have have also grown up on a horse farm that has a wide variety of animals. I am comfortable working with both small and large animals and have experience administering medications, including insulin injections. I currently own both a dog and a horse, so animal care is a part of my everyday life. I also have a friendly dog in the home who enjoys playing with other dogs, which helps create a comfortable and social environment for pets in my care. I am patient, reliable, and passionate about making animals feel safe, cared for, and comfortable. I currently work remotely, Monday to Friday, from the comfort of my own home. I am currently working from home during the week so I have plenty of time for outside play and walks as well as constant supervision While my yard is not fenced in, I provide long walks around the lake and possibly even swimming for those warm days and water loving dogs.
About: I am a 33 year old disabled Army Veteran. I worked with Military Dogs during my time in the Army and I also had my own lovebugs at home. I am very experienced in obedience and basic command training, but I also give your Dog all the attention and love they need. I love taking them out for walks and playtime to get them powered out. In the Military I worked mostly with German Sheperds and Belgian Malanois, at home I gave my love to a French and an English Bulldog, so I am well aware of some of the health issues that these breeds have. Nonetheless I work well with all breeds and I am always excited to get to know New friends everywhere.
About: My family has always had dogs and I had my first dog when I was 9yrs old. I’ve always felt a special connection with dogs and love to have them around and care for them. They bring so much joy, and are great company and entertainment. The 4 dogs I’ve had since I was a child have been of different breeds and sizes. My first dog was a medium sized rescued dog and we are unsure of his breed. The second one was a large Italian Mastiff, and I now have two small Cavapoos (Rocky and Lego) that are a wonderful addition to my family. Whenever we have family gatherings I always welcome family and friends with their pets and Rocky and Lego love having other furry friends over. I have the time and space to care for other dogs while their family travels, work or runs errands and know that their dogs are well taken care of in a loving home. I have cared for family and friends dogs many times before and I enjoy having them. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I am pretty available during the week and some weekends, and if requested ahead of time, I can make arrangements to be available for long term stay if needed. I have a partially fenced yard, but would walk your dog leashed at all times to ensure his/her safety. I have a crate that can be used for your dog during the day or at night if that’s what your dog is used to and would make him/her feel safe. My two dogs are very friendly and playful and would make your dog feel right at home. I allow my dogs on furniture and would allow yours as well if that is part of your dynamic at home as well. I also have a deck where they can play outside, run around and get some sun. I have a field right in front of my home where we go for daily walks. I am also open for a phone call, FaceTime or an in person visit to meet me and my dogs before hand.

“First, I've never used this type of service before. Alissa was accommodating, attentive, prompt and very caring for my dog, Lilly. If Alissa is the standard of the type of people that will care for my dog, I would use this service again, without a doubt. And, I wouldn't hesitate in booking Alissa, and recommending her to everyone.”

I have had dogs and cats my whole life, animals are truly my passion and I strive to provide nothing but the best care for your animals. I can assure detail oriented care and attention for your pets, and to treat them as if they were my own! I am working at an animal hospital currently and in school to become a licensed veterinary technician with an Associates in Animal Science!

About: I was born and raised with dogs and have been walking my family’s and neighbors dogs for as long as I can remember. Dogs hold a special place in my heart, but I also love my two precious cats. I’m currently working full time Pet Care, so I can be there for your furry family whenever you need me. I’m available for overnight stays, as well as daily check-ins and walkings. I value kindness towards animals above all, but not afraid to be stern when it is needed. I’ll make sure your furry friends are Happy,Healthy, and Safe when they’re with me!
“Tanuj was absolutely wonderful with our Dog, Rondo! My husband and I both work long hours and I needed to be out of town for business, and had hired Tanuj to walk Rondo 2x daily/ check in on Rondo. Tanuj went above and beyond merely taking our pup for a walk! I received tons of pics of a very happy Dog, and Tanuj was so kind to play a bit with him after their walks as well as pick up after him. Tanuj has a very calm and patient demeanor, which Rondo responded very well to! Tanuj was extremely thorough, providing a Rover card for each visit with walk details, as well as a full report on how Rondo was doing. These cards truly put my mind at ease, as I was out of the country and several hours ahead and wasn’t able to check in with Tanuj on a regular basis. The Rover cards were helpful as I knew everything was going ok with his visits. It was also nice seeing those little cards with super cute pictures of Rondo having fun with his new walk buddy! Tanuj is the only person I would trust to care for my dog in the future - I look forward to hiring him back for future Walks and for dog sitting as well!! Highly recommend Tanuj!”
About: I've had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them and loving them has always come naturally. From daily walks to administering medication and comforting anxious dogs, I’ve done it all with patience and love. Over the years, I’ve also pet-sat for friends and neighbors, often staying overnight to make sure their dogs felt safe and well cared for in their own homes. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I treat every dog like my own. I am currently home for the summer on break from college. I am taking summer classes Monday-Thursday in the morning, but am free late morning and all afternoon. I am typically available all day on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping the pet's routine consistent and stress free. I follow all feeding schedules, walk times, and medication instructions as requested. I LOVE to have plenty of playtime and give lots of attention and affection, while making sure the home stays clean and secure. I can also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I treat your space and your pet with plenty of respect and care.
About: Like most I have had dogs my entire life but my last soul mate of 16 years died a year ago and I cannot bring myself to get another dog. That being said, we love animals in this household and want them around all the time...I think you get it. My other job is a professional nature photographer so not only will you get amazing photos of your dog, I can bring them with me on my assignments if you like. Like I said in my experience, my other job is a professional photographer giving me hours and hours at my house editing my work. Also, my partner Julie is a yoga teacher who works for herself so there is always someone home. The most important thing is that it is your dog, your rules. We have the most inviting back yard but it is not fenced, however, our house is in a rural community with great neighbors. Your dog will never be off a leash if that is your wish.
About: I have had dogs and cats all of my life, from puppies to rescue, and all sizes too! They have all had the most fun and long lives I could provide. About myself; I am TRUSTWORTHY, RELIABLE, FUN, CARING, RESPONSIBLE, ENGAGING and Dependable! My strong connection with animals began as a child where my father did Bird Rescue. I have also had many birds in my life, from rescue sparrows, to Cockatiels, to Parrots. When I got older, I had horses, and learned to care for them as well. All in all, animals are my world, I just love caring for them and spending time with them. I currently work Monday to Wednesday on location. I work remotely on Thursday and Fridays, and off Saturdays and Sundays. I'm able to care for your pets either in your home or as daily visits for long weekends. If you choose to have your dog come to my house while you are away, I have 2 small dogs here and we can keep your dog happy and comfortable with a lot of company! Your dog would have many walks per day around my acres. If you'd rather I go to your dog's home, that is not a problem either!

“Katie provided wonderful care for our dog at her residence while we were away. She took the time to get to know myself and my dog prior to her stay. It was our lab's first time boarding and Katie sent updates regularly throughout the day which helped ease the transition. Katie's professionalism, passion and love for the animals was evident throughout the entire experience. Highly recommend!”
“Wow, what a great experience! Was smooth from beginning to end. Abner was able to accomodate our request to have our dog stay solo last minute which put us at ease because she can be reactive to other animals. She can be anxious and take time to warm up but Abners peaceful demeanor made drop off so easy, zero stress or barking! She just skipped right into his house and barely looked back to say goodbye😆. Abner went above and beyond with lots of photo updates and even gave her a bath because she was so interested in his tub! Abner provided walks and completely spoiled our dog with no crate time and cuddles..thank you so much Abner for your gentle and attentive service. You are our go-to next time we book a trip to Great Wolf Lodge!”
About: I will give your dog(s) my undivided attention. They will be fed and taken for walks. I will engage with them throughout the day, as I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I will care for them just like they were my own pet. Being a dog owner myself, I understand how much they mean to their families. In case of an emergency at home or work, I will provide the necessary care for your dogs. I have a unique bond with every dog I meet and truly enjoy their company, ensuring they receive plenty of affection. In the past, I have cared for my family's dogs, feeding and walking them nearly every day. I am knowledgeable about how to handle dogs safely. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to dog-sit and walk the dogs entrusted to my care. Pet caring is one of my passion because they bring so much joy to our lives. With this being said after work I do appreciate the love my fur babies give me. I love to play and run with fur babies and I also get my weekly exercise in! I have a yard that they can run freely in. They will have access to my balcony for when they need cooling and some quiet.
“Bodhi loved staying with Melissa and Angel! He was well taken care of and had a lot of fun with their son and the other dogs they were watching. I'd definitely reach out to them again to watch him.”
“I have a five-month-old puppy that Kevin kept overnight for me this past weekend. He sent me updates and pictures. Winchester came home very happy. I would definitely recommend Kevin for your pet sitting needs”
“Seb was great with Prince. He kept me updated and took plenty of pictures. He was very patient with Prince too since he still has accidents every now and again. I would absolutely book with Seb again!”
“I had an amazing experience with Alaine as my dog sitter. She was highly responsive, providing daily photos and a detailed "report card" summarizing Brizo's activities and well-being during the four-night stay. Alaine took exceptional care of Brizo, and her own dog, Pasta, was a wonderful host too. I highly recommend Alaine for her attentiveness, communication, and genuine love for animals. Brizo can't wait to visit again soon!”
“Kaipo loved Scotts home. He was so excited to be there. Nice big yard to run around in and other dogs to play with as well. One of the biggest changes I noticed after Kaipos' stay was that he now returns the ball to me when we play fetch. He would never do that before. Keep away was his favorite game. Took him to dog park and I was throwing the ball for him for nearly an hour. He bought it back every time, dropped it and waited for me to pick it up and throw it again. That was a nice change and I want to thank Scott for fixing that. I had fun.”
“Gisselle and her family are the perfect family for our dogs to stay with while away from home!! They are loving, patient, attentive and absolutely spoiled our two Shetland Sheepdogs!! Gisselle sent photos as well as updates throughout the days we were away. The images showed my two pups comfortable, happy and having a blast playing the day away!! I could not be more grateful for her care in every way. Gisselle is my “go to family” now for all our dog care needs. She is the absolute best!!”
“So accommodating and friendly. This was our first time boarding, and pretty instantly we knew our pup was in good hands! The pictures were so appreciated, and we’re incredibly grateful for the care our dog was given.”
“Trista was great and my dog had a wonderful visit. I got pictures so I could tell she was happy while I was away and she was happy when I picked her up. Trista kept me informed and I could tell my dog was in good hands.”
“Chris did an awesome treating my dog as his own!! He never books more than 1 dog while sitting and my dog got a long great with his. He sent updates to keep my family at ease. I will definitely be using him in the future. THANKS AGAIN!!!”
“Carla was a great dog sitter!!! Nugget stayed with her over the weekend. It was really short notice but she was very accommodating. I can tell my boy had fun because when it was time to go, he wanted to go back inside the house!!! Will definitely be using her services in the future 😊”
“Deb and Vic are great! This is the second time our little girl Mollie has stayed with them and we will absolutely do it again! They are so easy to work with and obviously love the dogs in their care. Mollie wan't at all nervous when we got there and greeted Deb with kisses. Then she happily trotted off with her with her when I left . Overall a great experience!”
“Kamini, her family, and Pia are fantastic. Our dog stayed overnight and I received frequent updates (the right amount), lots of pictures, and great communication!! Even with this being the first time he stayed with them, I was comfortable and confident he was being treated as their own. He got along great with Pia, and we would definitely use Kamini again in the future. Highly recommend. 5 stars!”
