“I can’t say enough great things about Lisa and her family. They were great with our dog and treated her like a member of their family. I’m so glad we found her and we don’t have to worry about leaving our dog.”
“We are so happy we chose Tom to look after Fluffy. He was very professional and kept us posted with pictures. Fluffy is an anxious dog, but Tom made her feel right at home—even letting her sleep on the bed and hang out on the couch. He also let us do a meet-and-greet the day before, which was very helpful. We will definitely be booking with Tom again.”
“We left Keenu with Noria for the whole day. And he loved it. She was very nice and accommodative of my timings (as it was a work day). Her loads of pics and videos about Keenu’s well being were well appreciated throughout the day. We will definitely reach out again to her for our next dog sitting need. Thank you !”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my fur baby with Alexis. She did a great job communicating and I could tell when I picked up my dog that she loved it at Alexis’s house. We appreciated the fact that Alexis only cares for one family’s pets at a time. That meant that our 8 yr old girl had a nice calm time while we were away.”
“Ryan did a great job with Spenser. Daily outings, regular updates, and plenty of photos, we always knew our dog was in good hands. When our trip ran four days longer than planned, Ryan didn't skip a beat. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog. Would recommend him to any dog owner without hesitation.”
About: I grew up caring for my family's black labs my entire life. I currently own two beautiful baby Shih Tzus, Tony & Guiness with my beautiful girlfriend. They add so much joy to our lives and are a big part of our growing family. I invest a lot of time and effort into training them daily, to build trust and give them the best lives possible. Taking care of the animals in my life is a passion of mine, and I treat every pet like it's my own. I'm currently making pet care my full time job. After years of training athletes, I'm opting for a career that is rewarding in different ways. I'm available any time Monday through and occasionally a weekend if I'm around and if it's a good fit. My apartment complex has many areas to walk outside, with sidewalks and open grass areas where I walk my boys. There is also a spacious indoor dog park in the basement of my complex where I take them to play, especially on rainy days. We do training both indoors and on walks outside, individually and as a family. I also expose my dogs to as many experiences as possible, bringing them to community events, outdoor dining, and social gatherings. Our family does not believe in leaving pets home alone all day every day, and want to give them as much stimulation and social interaction as possible.
“Ahmad and Janelle are super friendly and welcoming of my two dogs. I love that they have a dog park right in their complex and my pups could run and play. I look forward to working with them again soon.”
“Joanne was great with Bruno. We got plenty of pictures, which made us feel at ease during our trip. We will be booking her again! Smooth meet and greet process as well as drop off/pixkuo.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and reliable pet caregiver with years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. Before fostering cats, I fostered dogs and I even had two “foster fails!” My two sweet pitties stole my heart and became permanent members of my family. Over the years, I’ve fostered numerous cats and kittens, including seniors, shy cats, and young babies. Fostering has taught me that every pet is unique, and I love taking the time to build trust, help them feel safe, and provide care that fits their individual personality and needs. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm companion while you’re away, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and patience. I’m also comfortable giving basic medications when needed, but my greatest strength is creating a safe, comfortable environment where pets can relax and be themselves. My professional background has strengthened my patience, reliability, and attention to detail, and I bring those qualities to every visit. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I’ll always treat them like they’re part of my own family. You can also count on regular photo and video updates, so you’ll always know your furry baby is happy and well cared for! I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! I currently work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m able to provide dependable, attentive care while keeping your pet’s schedule consistent. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I take the time to learn their routine, respect their personality, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. Whether in my home or yours, I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, fresh food and water, and lots of love. I also keep pet parents updated with photos and messages so they know their furry family member is happy and well cared for.
“This was my first time letting my dog overnight board anywhere— and it was the best experience for both me and him. Jessica took us in very last minute and was communicative the whole time. I was states away, yet I always knew what my dog was doing and I got so many pictures of him smiling. Would 100% recommend!”
“Stefanie was really great with our dog and made the entire experience stress-free. She was incredibly communicative, sending frequent updates and photos of potty breaks, walks, meals, and how he was doing throughout his stay, which gave us great peace of mind. We brought home a happy, healthy pup, and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish—we wouldn’t hesitate to book with Stefanie again!”
“Tanvi and her husband are lovely people. Callie had a wonderful time as was evident in the lovely photos Tanvi was SO considerate in sending us. We WILL be having Callie stay with Tanvi again.”
“Hollie and her husband cared for Rainey like their own. They kept to her routine, gave her medicines when needed, and made sure Rainey got plenty of exercise and playtime. They sent many updates every day. I was very comfortable leaving Rainey with them for the first time (for two weeks), she warmed up to them very quickly. Thank you both!”
“Bhavani and family took care of our Diesel during holiday season (9 days). Our Diesel is a large (lab) puppy with extra energy. She did a great job and I highly recommend her. She was quick to respond and very accommodating. She even helped navigate the app( for first timer like me) and from the beginning of setting up the meet and greet visit to until the last day, she was prompt in communicating, shared pictures and videos daily, followed the instructions. Bhavani family loved and cared for our Diesel like it their own. Did not bother us with anything, just shared pictures and videos which gave us peace of mind and confidence to enjoy our vacation. Her home is safe for pets and she really has the experience to handle them. I will use her service again in future ( although it is an hour away drive for us) because safety and happiness of our fur babies comes first. I highly recommend her to everyone. Thank you Bhavani.”
“Our Lab Peyton absolutely loved her stay with Nikki! She had a blast playing with the fellow dogs that were also vacationing at Nikki's and we loved receiving updates with photos throughout our night away! We would definitely use Nikki again!”
“My dog Phin had a fantastic visit with Louie. Louise place is great for having dog daycare with a fully fenced backyard. He clearly loves dogs and gets along with him well. I felt very good about the safety and the fun. My dog was having while I was working all day :-) I will definitely be using Louie again in the future.”
“I had a wonderful experience with this dog sitter! Communication was excellent throughout my trip, and I received daily updates and pictures, which gave me great peace of mind. It was clear from the photos and updates that my dog was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. Knowing my dog was in such good hands made it much easier to relax while I was away. I will definitely be booking with them again in the future and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter”
“Awesome! Jean, is excellent! We left our 7-year-old Labradoodle for the first time with Jean for an extended weekend. She treated Simba as if he was her own dog and sent us pics of their wonderful time together multiple times a day. Simba loved it and felt at home. We are so glad we found Jean as she will be our go-to person moving forward.”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Emma! She was incredibly responsive from the start and sent so many updates throughout my pup’s stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. I don’t trust many people with my dog, but I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in such great hands. My pup can be a little shy in new environments, and she was so patient, taking the time to help her feel comfortable. Her dog was an absolute angel! I’ll definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”

“Alicia is super reliable and gives us great peace of mind knowing that our cat is well taken care of when we’re out of town. And our cat loves Alicia - she’s normally shy, but she’s very social with Alicia!”
“So happy with Jessica! She responded promptly both prior to and right after the visit so communicating was a breeze. I received several pics of my cat- so great!”
About: I have taken care of cats of all shapes and sizes since the age of ten! I have an immense love for cats and I have two of my own fur babies at home. I would be happy to feed, pet, and care for any critter that you need me to! As someone with experience in the veterinary field, I am comfortable caring for any type of cat - any shape, size, or personality! I am experienced in administering medication to cats, and know how to do this without making it a stressful experience. I will provide whatever your cat desires - whether that is couch cuddles, vigorous play with their favorite toy, or just someone to make sure they are fed and watered. As a cat owner myself, I understand how much your fur babies mean to you, and will conduct my care with that in mind. I am happy to accomodate any needs. For your animal's and my own safety, I do require proof of up-to-date vaccination before booking (primarily Rabies vaccination).
“Noelle was AMAZING. Communication was excellent, her knowledge of cats is great. She looked after my 2 cats for a week. One had some medical needs and she handled them like a pro. In her photos, I could see the cats were snuggling her and happy. What more could a cat mom ask for??”
“Mariia was wonderful! So kind and our cat adored her! She was very communicative and kept us very updated on our cat as we were away. We will definitely book her again!”
“Marc took very good care of our cats. He was very communicative and always sent pictures. He also made the time to meet up prior to the drop-ins to see the cats and go over details in person. Highly recommend!”
“Laura was absolutely great!! She took the effort to meet me a few times prior, so we could practice and learn how to do my cat's inhaler therapy and she was able to consistently do it for him this time! Very very pleased with the outcome!”
“Courtney was great; she took great care of all my cats and left everything very clean and neat. She kept me posted on how much they were eating, etc. She paid attention to all the instructions, didn't forget anything, gave my cat her asthma inhaler, and made me feel comfortable like my cats were in good hands. I would totally hire her again.”
“Holly is very responsible, cat loving, and knowing person. She complied with a schedule. Our two cats accepted her from day one. We recommend Holly, and will call her in the future.”
“Asia & John were once again great! They watched our cat while we were on vacation. We have used them several times now, and it is comforting knowing our Bella is well taken care of every time. We are lucky we found them!”
“Frida was wonderful with our very shy cat! She tried for 2 days to get him to come out and play and on the third day he did! He played and let her pet him which means he was one happy cat! Frida took good care of him and our house, we highly recommend her and would welcome her back anytime.”
“Rebecca was great with the house, cats and communication! One thing that stood out to me was her calm demeanor. My cats are freaked out by some people and take a little to warm up. They both liked her right away, which gave us a peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely book her again.”
“Ethan was fantastic watching my two cats while my family was on vacation. He fed them, cleaned out the litter box, and cleaned up the messes that one cat left on the floor in protest of us being away. Ethan was responsible, communicative, and trustworthy. I would use him again and would highly recommend him to others.”
About: I have 3 cats of my own and have a special knack with cats. I understand their personalities and have worked well with friendly kitties, scared kitties, even feral cats in my career. I can medicate, cut nails, etc.

“Josephine’s first stay with Pardeep was seamless. Pardeep was very accommodating with my schedule and provided a safe, calm, enjoyable day for Jo. He kept me up to date on her as the day went on and that is always reassuring. His dogs were friendly and respectful which I greatly appreciate due to Josephine being a senior. I would gladly recommend him and will seek his care for Josephine again soon.”
About: I have lots of experience with dogs and absolutely love spending time with them — playing, teaching tricks, and taking them on walks. I grew up around dogs and have a real passion for it! I only take one dog at a time, so your pup gets my full attention and focus throughout the stay. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I can walk your dog in the early morning, during lunch, and in the late afternoon/evening — basically as needed throughout the day. I live in a house with my sweet two-year-old daughter, who is gentle and great with animals (no grabbing or rough play!). Because of this, I’m looking to care for friendly, calm dogs who are comfortable around kids. If your pup fits that description, I’d love to give them a fun, attentive stay full of walks, play, and maybe even a new trick or two!
“Wonderful playday for our Penny! The caring attention that Kamud paid to Penny added to the great experience of running and socializing with her own fur-baby Kai. Nice fenced yard provided plenty of space to play to their hearts content which left Penny refreshed and ready for a great night sleep. Thank you Kamud for your special care of our PennyBear!!”
“Noria took the time to meet up with me the day prior to make sure my dog could meet her. She took great care of her, sent me pictures throughout the day, it was easy to tell my dog didn’t want to leave upon being picked up! Highly recommend her and would gladly book again.”
“Tom is very easy to talk to and very accommodating. Communication was quick. Tom also sent a lot of pictures in which my dog Toby seemed very happy and relaxed. Definitely will be back. Highly recommend.”
“Esther took amazing care of Enzo! This was one of his first daycare experiences, and she made us feel completely at ease. She kept us updated with photos and a detailed summary of his day, which we really appreciated. I highly recommend Esther to anyone looking for someone who is caring, attentive, and trustworthy. We will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you, Esther, for taking such great care of Enzo!”
“Ahmad was very good, thank you so much for taking care of Messi. We can tell he was well cared with so much love. He agreed to take Messi at the last minute so I appreciate it very much and we would love to come back to you another time.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and former fur mom to my beloved Morkie, who was part of my family for 14.5 wonderful years until she passed away in 2023. I currently work from home most days, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. I’m also an experienced dog aunt and have been puppy-sitting my Golden Retriever “fur niece” for the past year, giving me recent experience with larger, energetic dogs as well. I’m a mom of two boys, ages 3 and 7, who are in school and daycare during the day. They have grown up around dogs and are gentle, loving, and respectful of animals. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet because I’ve been in your shoes. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where your furry family member feels at home while you’re away. I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own—with lots of love, attention, and belly rubs! What you can expect from me: 🐾 Plenty of supervision due to my work-from-home schedule 🐾 Regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and cuddles 🐾 Experience caring for both small and large dogs 🐾 Updates and photos so you can feel connected while you’re away 🐾 A calm, loving, family-oriented environment I can’t wait to meet your furry family member and give them the care and affection they deserve! ❤️🐾 I work from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the day to provide attentive care, frequent potty breaks, playtime, walks, and plenty of companionship. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine, and I enjoy having furry company while I work. Your pet will receive lots of supervision, love, and attention rather than being left alone for long periods. Safety is my top priority. My home was always dog-proofed when I had my Morkie, and I continue to puppy-proof it whenever my Golden Retriever fur niece stays with us. I make sure there isn’t anything pets can get into that could be unsafe, and I have a dog gate available to create secure spaces when needed. I provide a clean, supervised, and loving environment where pets are treated like family and can feel safe and comfortable while in my care. 🐾❤️
“Emma was absolutely wonderful with my dog! Lilah was so excited to see Emma the second day of daycare. She communicated with me consistently, sent me pictures and updates, was accommodating and flexible! She made it so easy and made me feel so comfortable leaving my dog with her. I would definitely use her again if I’m in the area and highly recommend her to anyone looking!”
“Debbie sent pictures and all I saw were 2 small dogs who did not miss their human Mom. There was play time (smiles and action), down time (cuddling and relaxing). I was always under the impression they sat in a corner and missed me with all their tiny hearts, but no - Debbie had them going the whole time! One fell asleep on the drive home due to the days action, the other needed every minute of tthe days action! Her property is amazing! Gorgeous setting only maybe two or three miles from downtown Bernardsville. So much safe space to run and play in. Exploring is at the top of Louie's requirements and he had a whole acre of fenced in yard to get all his Terrier on! Thanks so much Debbie! WE WILL BE BACK!!!!”
“This was not only my first time with Julissa but my first time using Rover. Wow did she make an amazing impression! My puppy Luna loves her! She was very response and immediately replied to any questions I had, or If I was just checking in. She was timely having everything ready for drop off and pick up. She followed my instructions for a puppy that has stomach problems. Not to mention she sent pictures of my puppy throughout the day which was so thoughtful. I picked up a tired happy pup! Will definitely be using Julissa in the near future!”
“Isbath was really attentive and careful in screening to make sure my puppy would be a good fit for her care. He loved playing with her dogs and he didn’t even want to leave upon pick up. Would recommend anyone looking for daycare.”
“Such great care of my Brownie even when he wasn’t feeling his best! Pam is a great communicator, sends pics, asks questions and even her dad is friendly! Will definitely be booking again!”
“Lupe is fantastic!! He is so good with our pup and we feel so grateful to have found him!! He is so friendly and welcoming. He goes above and beyond to make sure all of our dog’s needs are met. We had an emergency and he was super accommodating and made sure that our dog was in good hands. He has an awesome large yard that our dog loves to run in. Highly recommend!”
“This was a last minute booking for Layla and I was excited to see Layla refusing to go home at the end. Tanvi is an excellent host and I'll definitely be a repeat customer pretty soon!”
“My dog Happy had a happy day at Tao's home. He made friends with Rilley. Tao kept me updated with photos and videos. We're very happy with the service and will definitely go back.”
“Ginnette is Wonderful!!! I am very cautious when it comes to the proper care of my 2 Boys (having some extra physical needs and diet requests.) We started with a meet & greet, and then a day care. Ginnette is everything I am looking for in a pet sitter–providing a calm, secure, safe and loving environment…she gained my trust very quickly. While worried they would be nervous in a new home, within an hour she sent me a picture of them super relaxed sleeping on her sofa. I sincerely appreciated the pics / updates I received during their stay…I know she took extra time to really get to know them. They were happy when I picked them up and Fozzie actually cried for Ginnette when she walked out of the room! I agree with another review that called her a “Dog Whisperer”! I am thrilled to have Ginnette care for the Boys for future stays!”
“Jessica and Butters were wonderful and welcoming for my mini Dachshund, Loki’s first daycare session! 💕 So many pictures showing how much fun he had!! He can’t wait til his next visit. Thank you!!”

“Did great with her first walk with our dog. Teddy really connected well with her and she took good care and followed all the agreed care instructions. Will definitely have her walk our dog again.”
“I've been using Yana for the past few weeks because I had to pull my dog out of daycare due to her needing surgery and I can honestly tell you between her flexibility and transparency, Yana has been a great addition to my dogs' life. Her responsive nature and amazing ability to connect with my dogs has been a godsend for me. She is so responsive and I appreciate her report cards so much. My one dog is very reactive and doesn't trust people easily to the fact that she took to Yana so well is amazing. Highly recommend her.”

“Holly was 100% amazing! She took such wonderful care of Marshall and gave us total peace of mind. She was incredibly attentive and kept checking on him the entire time. I highly recommend Holly to everyone—we will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“I’ve had a great experience with Ronit so far! She came to our house for an initial meet and greet so she could get to know Rooney and make sure it was a good fit. Rooney can be a little territorial with new people in the house, and I really appreciated how calm and patient she was with him. She let him investigate her and get comfortable before trying to interact with him and never rushed him. When she came back for his first walk the following week, everything went great! She said Rooney was a very good boy, and he seems to have accepted her already. 😊 It gives me a lot of peace of mind knowing he’s with someone who understands dogs and took the time to earn his trust. I’m very happy we found Ronit and would definitely recommend her!”
About: Animals have always been at the center of my life. I share my home with four cats (three traveled with me from Ukraine and one rescued from Houston) and a Bernese Mountain Dog who’s training to become a certified therapy dog. I work remotely, so I’m home all day and able to give pets constant attention. Before moving to the U.S., I co-founded an adoption center in Ukraine dedicated to rescuing and rehoming critically ill stray cats. I’ve completed multiple courses in animal behavior and publish freelance articles about the latest research in pet care. My dog has completed four manners courses and holds all his certificates, and I create human-grade treats in a professional dehydrator (and planning to start a business), so my furry guests are welcome to sample them if they have no allergies. We have a spacious home with a fenced yard, two guest rooms to separate our furry guests if needed, and a pool for supervised dog play. I work remotely only a few hours a day, so I have plenty of time to care for your pet. I’m also very physically active, ensuring your furry friend will never be bored. I create a calm, pet-friendly environment and keep routines consistent to reduce stress. In my home or yours, I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, maintain secure doors and gates, and use positive reinforcement for safe play. I keep food, water, and litter areas clean and monitor pets closely during walks or outdoor time.
“Robert was great with Lacy! He was communicative, reliable, and incredibly attentive throughout both visits. He sent updates and photos, took great care of her, and even went above and beyond when she had an upset stomach and an accident in her crate. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing she was in good hands while we were away. Lacy clearly enjoyed her time with him, and we’d happily book Robert again!”
“Marc was so patient with Cloud! Cloud wanted to protect our house that day, but he eventually decided that Marc was not a threat & allowed him to take him for a walk! The true sign of Cloud trusting Marc was that he did zoomies when they were back from their walk. Thank you, Marc!”
About: As a lifelong animal lover and proud German Shepherd mom, I bring hands-on experience with pets of all kinds, from puppies and seniors to anxious, reactive, and differently-abled dogs. I’ve also cared for cats, birds, bunnies, fish, and geckos, so no pet is too unique! My approach is warm and nurturing by nature, but I adapt to whatever your pet needs. Structured and calm for reactive dogs, playful and patient for puppies, and gentle and attentive for seniors. Every animal deserves to feel safe and loved, and that’s exactly what I deliver. I am currently available during day time, and open to taking on clients in the afternoon if available. Can do overnight sittings Sunday- Wed, and can do multiple visits in the day I am available to take care of pets in your home, whether it’s a walk, sitting or play session. Will adjust dependent on the weather and pet needs
About: I've always loved animals and used to volunteer at an animal shelter when I was younger. I also got my first dog 10 years ago--she is my best friend and I love her more than anything :) I'm responsible for grooming, feeding, and walking her, plus regular check ups to make sure she's healthy. My favorite thing to do though is playing with her and cuddling! In regard to my schedule, I am currently working full time from 9-5pm, Monday through Friday. Any other times outside of that window I am available! I am also going on vacation from August 8 to August 15. Since I am a pet owner myself, I am able to take care of your pet(s) in any way needed. I am able to understand different personalities and needs among various animals and adjust accordingly!
“Our experience with Brittany was stellar! She comes prepared and is incredibly kind~ she became quick friends with our nervous doggo in no time! Would absolutely recommend, will absolutely be booking again!”
“Kristina has been there for me and my pup a few times now and has been awesome. Completely reliable and a true dog lover. Goes above and beyond bringing in packages and letting me know when my fish tank alarm started beeping. I have had to be away from home a lot recently and it’s been easier to do knowing Kristina was looking after my dog.”
“Hiral has walked our dog Hank a few times now and Hank always has a great time with her. She sends pictures and updates throughout her visit, even feeds him if needed. She is our go to!”
About: My journey with animals started over 13 years ago with my family cat, who taught me the importance of subtle body language and the specialized care that any pet requires. This lifelong bond grew into a passion for helping others, leading me to become the go-to sitter for my neighbors' dogs and cats for several years. What sets me apart: • Multi-Species Fluency: I currently look after both a cat and a dog daily. I understand a dual dynamic and know how to balance the high-energy needs of a dog with the boundaries and quiet requirements of a cat. • Reliability & Trust: My neighbors have trusted me with their home keys and their furry family members for years. I pride myself on being punctual, following specific feeding/medication instructions to the letter, and keeping a tidy space. • I know what it’s like to be in your shoes: As a pet owner myself, I also have looked for sitters and know the level of care and attentiveness that I seek for. It’s a classic example of upholding the standards that I want to see myself As a hybrid employee, my schedule is more flexible and can be naturally structured around consistent walking and feeding times. My pet care responsibilities are a priortiy In your home, I prioritize security and maintaining your pet's sense of normalcy. Whether it’s rigorous playtime for dogs or quiet companionship for cats, I provide consistent updates and photos so you can see your pet is happy, safe, and loved. I treat every home with respect and every pet like they’re my own because I get it. I’ve been in your shoes as someone looking for a sitter

“I can’t say enough great things about Lisa and her family. They were great with our dog and treated her like a member of their family. I’m so glad we found her and we don’t have to worry about leaving our dog.”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my fur baby with Alexis. She did a great job communicating and I could tell when I picked up my dog that she loved it at Alexis’s house. We appreciated the fact that Alexis only cares for one family’s pets at a time. That meant that our 8 yr old girl had a nice calm time while we were away.”
“Ryan did a great job with Spenser. Daily outings, regular updates, and plenty of photos, we always knew our dog was in good hands. When our trip ran four days longer than planned, Ryan didn't skip a beat. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog. Would recommend him to any dog owner without hesitation.”
“Ahmad and Janelle are super friendly and welcoming of my two dogs. I love that they have a dog park right in their complex and my pups could run and play. I look forward to working with them again soon.”
“Barbara was wonderful! It was immediately obvious that she genuinely enjoys caring for dogs. She was very detailed in her engagement, both in person and over the app. All around a very good person. Unfortunately I did not get the opportunity to meet James. Next time hopefully.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and reliable pet caregiver with years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. Before fostering cats, I fostered dogs and I even had two “foster fails!” My two sweet pitties stole my heart and became permanent members of my family. Over the years, I’ve fostered numerous cats and kittens, including seniors, shy cats, and young babies. Fostering has taught me that every pet is unique, and I love taking the time to build trust, help them feel safe, and provide care that fits their individual personality and needs. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm companion while you’re away, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and patience. I’m also comfortable giving basic medications when needed, but my greatest strength is creating a safe, comfortable environment where pets can relax and be themselves. My professional background has strengthened my patience, reliability, and attention to detail, and I bring those qualities to every visit. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I’ll always treat them like they’re part of my own family. You can also count on regular photo and video updates, so you’ll always know your furry baby is happy and well cared for! I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! I currently work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m able to provide dependable, attentive care while keeping your pet’s schedule consistent. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I take the time to learn their routine, respect their personality, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. Whether in my home or yours, I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, fresh food and water, and lots of love. I also keep pet parents updated with photos and messages so they know their furry family member is happy and well cared for.
“Tanvi and her husband are lovely people. Callie had a wonderful time as was evident in the lovely photos Tanvi was SO considerate in sending us. We WILL be having Callie stay with Tanvi again.”
“Bhavani and family took care of our Diesel during holiday season (9 days). Our Diesel is a large (lab) puppy with extra energy. She did a great job and I highly recommend her. She was quick to respond and very accommodating. She even helped navigate the app( for first timer like me) and from the beginning of setting up the meet and greet visit to until the last day, she was prompt in communicating, shared pictures and videos daily, followed the instructions. Bhavani family loved and cared for our Diesel like it their own. Did not bother us with anything, just shared pictures and videos which gave us peace of mind and confidence to enjoy our vacation. Her home is safe for pets and she really has the experience to handle them. I will use her service again in future ( although it is an hour away drive for us) because safety and happiness of our fur babies comes first. I highly recommend her to everyone. Thank you Bhavani.”
“Our Lab Peyton absolutely loved her stay with Nikki! She had a blast playing with the fellow dogs that were also vacationing at Nikki's and we loved receiving updates with photos throughout our night away! We would definitely use Nikki again!”
“Just picked our dog up from another stay with Melissa and Dan and it’s so clear to us how well cared for and happy he is in their care. We received regular updates and photos throughout our stay which were so helpful. And we can tell he has a great relationship with their family and dogs. Highly recommend.”
“My dog Phin had a fantastic visit with Louie. Louise place is great for having dog daycare with a fully fenced backyard. He clearly loves dogs and gets along with him well. I felt very good about the safety and the fun. My dog was having while I was working all day :-) I will definitely be using Louie again in the future.”
“Awesome! Jean, is excellent! We left our 7-year-old Labradoodle for the first time with Jean for an extended weekend. She treated Simba as if he was her own dog and sent us pics of their wonderful time together multiple times a day. Simba loved it and felt at home. We are so glad we found Jean as she will be our go-to person moving forward.”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Emma! She was incredibly responsive from the start and sent so many updates throughout my pup’s stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. I don’t trust many people with my dog, but I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in such great hands. My pup can be a little shy in new environments, and she was so patient, taking the time to help her feel comfortable. Her dog was an absolute angel! I’ll definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”
“From the moment I first contacted the Kumud for dog sitting service, I felt reassured and confident that my beloved furry friend was going to be in good hands. Communication was clear, prompt, and always professional. The sitter was punctual and demonstrated a genuine love for animals. They took the time to understand my dog's routine, dietary requirements, and favorite activities. This attention to detail put my mind at ease, knowing that my pet's unique needs were being taken into consideration. During my time away, I received regular updates and photos. It was a joy to see my dog looking so content and well taken care of. The sitter went above and beyond, not just providing basic care but also engaging my pet in stimulating play and exercise. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend this dog sitting service to any dog owner who wants peace of mind while they are away. The professional conduct, genuine affection for animals, and the top-notch service exceeded all my expectations. It's a 5-star service in my book, and I will certainly be using their services again in the future.”
“Whitney and Mike were so wonderful with my dog, Zhenzhen. They took great care of Zhenzhen, and I think Zhenzhen really enjoyed his time. I received daily updates and photos, which made the whole process very easy. Thank you!!!”
“We were very pleasantly surprised by how professional, kind, and attentive this couple was while caring for our dogs. Since we’re not from the Northeast, we were a little nervous about leaving our pups in an unfamiliar area, but they immediately put our minds at ease. They were incredibly welcoming, communicative, and genuinely caring. We felt confident that our dogs were in great hands, and we’ll absolutely book with them again the next time we’re in the area. Absolutely recommend!”
“Jason was attentive and attuned to Fennel and sent us lots of pictures across his extended weekend stay. He has a lovely house and wonderful large fenced yard for the pups to play in. We’d board Fennel again with him next time we fly out of Newark!”
“Chandar and his family are like a second home and family to Ruth. They truly love dogs and care for Ruth as if she’s their own (she’s already had 3 stays with them). And Ruth loves them, too!! They are so good to her and spoil her with belly rubs and miles-long sunrise and sunset walks. Chandar sends professional grade photos of Ruth with beautiful, artistic, and often charming backdrops (e.g., a hot air balloon, Princeton campus, dog zodiac statute). Chandar’s family is so welcoming, warm, and kind and it’s always a pleasure to see them when we drop off or pick up Ruth. They have also been incredibly accommodating, welcoming Ruth on short notice or letting her stay late. So happy that we met them!”
