“Alarie and her family were absolutely wonderful with our dog. From the moment we met them, we felt completely at ease leaving him in their care. They created such a warm, loving environment for him, and it was clear throughout his stay that he was well cared for. Alarie was highly responsive and shared frequent updates and beautiful photos throughout his stay, which we really appreciated. We’re so grateful to Alarie and her family for treating our pup like one of their own. We would absolutely recommend them and would be very happy to have our pup stay with them again!”

I will definitely use her services again, she’s a wonderful pet sitter, she’s very communicative and sent me pictures of my dog and an update daily while I was overseas. Her and her family all love pets and are very caring, this shows as my dog gets very excited to see her, her family, and her pets. She treated my dog as if it was her own.”
“We had such a great experience with Juan. This was our first time leaving Teddy with them and Juan made us feel very comfortable. He took great care of Teddy and sent us pictures and updates which we really appreciated while we were away. It was so reassuring to see that Teddy was doing well and being well cared for. We’re very thankful to Juan and would absolutely feel comfortable leaving Teddy with them again.”

“Eleanor is awesome!!! I reached out to her for an emergency to keep my 5month old GSD pupp for a day. She was kind enough to keep him and took every good care of my pupp.. I highly recommend her. My pupp loved her place and secured backyard is a blessing in disguise”
“At Meet & Greet, Carol (& family) were warm and showed interest in providing great care by asking relevant questions about my pup. Her home was ideal as she had no other dogs and had older kids.

“Sandra and San were absolutely incredible with Leo! We left him with them for 5 nights and felt so comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. They were so warm, kind, and caring, and I really appreciated how much effort they made to get to know Leo beforehand and understand his personality and routine. It really showed how responsible and thoughtful they are as sitters. Leo got tons of walks, playtime with Penny, and plenty of room to run around in their big fenced-in yard. We loved all the photos and videos and could tell he was having such a great time. They were also so easy to communicate with, which made everything completely stress-free.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets of all personalities, sizes, and needs. I currently have four cats, a dog, and a horse of my own, so caring for animals is truly part of my everyday life. I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember and understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and cautious, or just wants some company and affection, I’m happy to adjust to their individual personality and routine. I also have experience caring for pets who require medication, as some of my own cats take daily medications. I’m comfortable administering medications and following specific care instructions to make sure your pet stays on their normal routine while you’re away. I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats and know that every animal has their own quirks, preferences, and boundaries. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I’ll treat your pets with the same patience, attention, and love that I give my own!
“Molly was great with my cat who she boarded for close to two weeks. She sent me regular updates and videos of him. It was also an added bonus that she had her own cats which was delightful company for him.”
About: I’ve had cats my entire life, and I love them all! I’m very comfortable with feeding, playtime, cleaning litter boxes, giving attention and affection, and making sure cats feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I love getting to know each cat’s personality and making sure they receive the same love and care I would give my own.
About: I’ve cared for cats for over 7 years and understand that every cat has their own personality, boundaries, and needs. I’m experienced with everything from playful, energetic cats to seniors and cats with chronic medical conditions, including caring for my own senior cat with ongoing medical needs. I believe great cat care means meeting them where they’re comfortable. I’ll always give your cat space when they need it and plenty of love and attention when they ask for it. Enrichment and play are also a must, helping keep your cat happy, stimulated, and comfortable while you’re away. Through my experience working at a Humane Society, I’ve cared for cats with many different personalities, backgrounds, and care requirements. I bring that same patience, compassion, and attention to detail into your home and will always make sure your cat feels safe, respected, and loved. 🐱❤️

About: I have been caring for cats since I was 14 years old and have always had a special love for them.

I also rescued my own cat, Mimi, after she appeared at my window looking for a safe home. I will treat every cat in my care with the same love and attention I give my own. 🐈⬛❤️
“We had a fantastic experience having Nataliya take care of our cat while my wife & I were on vacation in Aruba.

He was happy when I left him and happy when I came back, so I know he had a great time. Thank you so much Tammy!!!”
“Courtney was welcoming and made me feel comfortable leaving my pup with her for the work day. Her pictures of Archie playing happily with other pups were highlights. He came home exhausted because of all the fun he had! Courtney was communicative, reliable, and I plan on having Archie stay with her in the future. MUCH appreciated!”
“It was great experience with Jill so far. My puppy been with her 2 times and with couple other dogs she takes care of. She has got a positive and patient attitude. Her house is very clean, she doesn’t have a yard but she balances it with multiple walks for the dogs. She is very responsive and accommodating as well. I have decided to send my puppy couple times every week to her home so he can socialize. Since Jill doesn’t have too many pets at the same time, it’s good for my puppy and all pets get more personal attention. I highly recommend her for your pet needs!”

“My wife and I are first time pet owners together and it was extremely hard to leave our Djinn behind in the care of stranger. But as God would have it, he supplied us Zuleyka! She’s been our blessing. She’s taken very good care of our dog and made him very comfortable; calming his separation anxieties. She’s made him feel right at home and has also calmed our fears and worries as well. She’s given us timely updates and photo’s and even offered us video chats. She’s also provided us with special accommodations for our Djinn; which we were very pleased with. We look forward to using her services again in the future. Sincerely, Kelvin & Delores Crawley”

Long walks throughout the neighborhood which is very safe.

About: I've been a pet owner my whole life. There was always a dog in my home when I was a child. Later on, in my own home had raised two dogs and a cat from their earliest days. My sweet Golden Retriever, Milo, was with me and my kids since he was 10 weeks old. He was amazing! Sadly after a year of being sick and fighting a good fight, it became too much for him. My kids & I said goodbye to him with many tears and such a heaviness in our hearts. It has been sad not seeing his happy face when I come home or unusual to not have to take him out for his nighttime walk. We miss him so much! I would love to be able to share my love that I had for him with the caring of another dog. I'm home during the day which allows me to have the time to devote to your dogs.i also have two teenage kids who are able to walk and play with him. I live on a quiet dead end street with hardly any cars coming through. I have a nice sized yard which is great for playing and taking in the suns rays(my dog would love to just roll his body over in the grass...lol). So I would being taking care of your precious baby boy/girl as if he/she was my own! I also will only take care of one dog at a time... so YOUR dog will have ALL my attention! I am a very easy going down to earth person.... I'd love to chat with you about your needs and concerns for your dog. Please let me know what I can do to help you ... Talk to you soon! Kathy

About: Hello! I'm a compassionate animal lover who enjoys caring for all types of animals. Growing up in a multi-animal household, I've been taking care of pets (mainly cats) for as long as I can remember. I've always enjoyed babysitting and walking others' dogs and I've gained experience over the last decade by continuously sitting and walking for dogs through wag and rover. As a babysitter and camp counselor with 10+ years experience, more often than not families would have dogs to care for as well. I am extremely responsible, friendly, caring, and very patient. My number 1 priority is SAFETY and will make sure your pup is well-cared for and safe on his walk and in the home. I'm currently available for most hours and any day during the week and weekend. I do not walk super late at night though after 9-10pm, unless it is a quick pee drop in visit. When visiting, would take your friendly dog out for a walk first to go to bathroom and get in some exercise. Depending on time if a drop by visit will also feed, brush, and hang out with pup so they get some extra love and attention before I head out. Please leave any notes for me regarding their feeding time and food measurements. Always leave with a fresh bowl of water for them as well. I have sat for a few dogs who loved yard games, if fenced in - like frisbee, tug o war, fetch etc.
“Justine was wonderful to work with. She was on time, responsive to all inquiries, and took great care throughout the entire experience. Reliable, communicative, and easy to work with — highly recommend!”
About: As a lifelong animal lover, pet sitting is something I truly enjoy because it gives me the opportunity to build lasting relationships with both pets and their families. I’m the go-to pet sitter for my family and friends, and nothing makes me happier than earning their trust and becoming a familiar face their pets are excited to see. Whether it’s dogs, cats, birds, or any other furry (or feathered!) family member, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I have two pets who are my whole world, so I understand how important it is to leave them with someone who is dependable, caring, and attentive. I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their families are away. From belly rubs and playtime to cuddles and keeping routines consistent, I’m here to make tails wag, whiskers twitch, and pet parents feel completely at ease. After all, I believe a house isn’t truly a home without a pet! A teacher on summer break who loves animals! Available all day Monday-Friday for daily walks, check-ins and just a friendly face to keep your pets company while you’re away! Safety is my top priority! We will discuss safety measures and YOUR routine to ensure safety and security always! Secured, safe, and a fun time is a MUST!
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 public 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. I am available for house sitting throughout the entire year. My schedule and availability for walks and drop-in visits is more flexible during the summer months! During visits, I focus purely on your pet and his/her needs. Drop-ins are normally feeding, a potty break & some fresh air, 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 to 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. :)
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 8 years, including walking, feeding, bathing, and providing daily care for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I have 3 dogs and a cat of my own! Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to keep their pets safe and comfortable while they are at work or away. As a nursing student, I am very attentive, patient, and detail-oriented. I am comfortable following specific routines, administering basic medications if needed, and caring for both energetic puppies and senior dogs. Safety and consistency are always my top priority. I am available for recurring daytime walks, drop ins, or pet sitting in Orange and Rockland County, NY. Throughout the fall and Spring time I am enrolled in an evening Nursing program in Bergen County NJ, and can also make accommodations there! When caring for pets, safety and trust are my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, leash instructions, and any special care requests provided by the owner. I always ensure collars and harnesses are secure before walks and remain attentive at all times. As a nursing student, I am trained to stay calm, observant, and proactive in any situation. I provide photo updates after walks and communicate clearly so owners feel confident their pets are in safe care!
About: I've had pets all my life. Now I'm looking to have another furry friend in the house so my dog has some companionship. It's a really cozy place that any dog would be happy to spend time at. I'm working full time from home. My schedule is flexible. I have a dog that I take for walks everyday so I would take your pet as well. I also enjoy taking my dog on longer walks on the weekends if the weather permits. I have a fenced in backyard and I have a gate in the house that I can separate the dogs while I'm out so they never are alone together.
About: I currently have 3 fur babies, from an 8lb chihuahua to a 70 pound hunting dog. I love them “almost” as much as my human babies and would be happy to help take care of yours! I work from home and have a flexible schedule. Happy to provide check ins and walks during the day, or stay at your home and care for your pets. I treat my pets and yours like they’re family because they are. Whether they like backyard playtime or a walk in the woods, I’m ready to spoil them.
About: The highlight of my dog's day is going on his walks, I want to make sure every pup gets to have theirs! Over 5 years of experience walking my own and my friends' dogs of different breeds and sizes. Experience with shy, timid rescues as well, my own dog is a pit/lab mix rescue from Texas and I was able to build up his confidence through regular routine walking! I have plenty of free time during the week to give your pup a quality walk, currently in between jobs so I am available most days. My dog, Bowie gets at least two 20-30 min walks a day with the occasional hike and dog park visit, I love to make sure he is active and having fun with water on hand for hot days or extra long walks to make sure he is hydrated throughout.
“Kerri has been wonderful! Her communication is excellent—she keeps us updated and is always responsive. We're so glad we found her and are looking forward to having her watch our pups when we travel. Highly recommend!”

“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!”
“Kelly was great, and Kobe had an amazing time on his sleepover. Kelly was very communicative, sent updates and pictures. Her house and yard were perfect for Kobe. He also made two new friends, with Kelly’s golden doodles. Definitely will use Kelly again in the future.”
“This was our first time leaving Bandit for more than a few days. Ken and Irene really gave us piece of mind by consistently sending us pictures of Bandit having a great time and letting us know he was doing well. Loved seeing the action shots captured between tug of war, running with new friends in the back yard, and snuggling for naps. Would definitely leave Bandit with them again. Thanks for taking care of our boy. ?”
“Brittany was a superstar caregiver. She communicated regularly and clearly about her availability and then with status checks. Lola was very happy with her- she wanted to stay longer! I would definitely recommend Brittany.”
“Sridevi is a great host for my kitten, Mochi! He stayed with them over the holidays. She made him feel at home with lots of care and toys and activities. She provided frequent videos and photos and kept me updated. She also provided video call. Highly recommended!”
“We are so grateful for the great care Cairo got while we were away! From the very first meet-and-greet, it was obvious she truly cares about animals and took the time to get to know Cairo! We got daily photo updates, whether it was him out on a walk, playing, or napping. She kept up with his routines, made sure he felt safe and happy. We can’t recommend her enough; Cairo can’t wait for his next sleepover!”
“They were extremely accommodating with our pick up and drop off schedule. I have used river maybe five or six times in the past, and that last time I use them I had a very bad experience with poor communication and people were so polite and had a beautiful property and kept in constant communication with plenty of pictures and when it was time for me to pick up my dog, we had a lot of traffic and we’re over an hour late and they were happy to oblige. I will definitely leave my stellar with him anytime and I plan to leave her with them in the future anytime I need a sitter. They sent me lots of pictures. They even went as far as printing out some pictures for us, and they gave Stella a little bandanna like she would have when she left a groomer. They were very polite and had a great backyard, and my dog was very happy when I picked her up, so I know that they treated her well. They are definitely an A+ sitter. I highly recommend them and I have used the multiple times was good and bad and I had nothing but good things to say about them.”
“Lucy was awesome! Always friendly and kept in communication at all times with pictures and videos of our fur baby. Would definitely recommend her for your pet sitting needs. Thank you Lucy!”
“I highly recommend Danielle, and even came all the way from Brooklyn to use her! I trusted her to watch my 65lb dog for 10 days over the holidays - she is very responsible and sent updates throughout the stay. It is easy to see that she is such a dog lover and treats the dogs she watches as her own! Her pup and mine got along well and it was a relief knowing that my dog was in such good care. I'd recommend Danielle to friends and to anyone who is looking for a reliable and responsible sitter.”
“Excellent boarding parents! Jeff and Jenny are a well versed couple with dogs from the initial meet and greet thru pick up at the end of our booking. Smooth process thru the entire stay. Our gentle giant extremely needy labradoodle did great! They provided us with plenty of updates which included pictures and videos of his time with them. He was fortunate to have another doodle as a buddy during his stay. We will be glad to use Jeff and Jenny in the future for our boarding/care taking needs yet again!”
“My dog Simon had a wonderful time at Stephanie's home. We took a 7-day getaway, so we were nervous about how he would do. Stephanie kept us updated daily, which eased our worries, and she sent many pictures. Simon didn't miss love or hugs and felt at home. He also made friends with her dog. Thank you for caring for our Simon! 🤗”
“Robert was incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and attentive while caring for my dog, Miranda. He took the time to ask detailed questions so he could provide the best possible care, which immediately gave me confidence. He also explained his backup care system in case of an emergency, something I really appreciated. Throughout Miranda’s stay, Robert communicated regularly and sent adorable photos that reassured me she was happy and well cared for. His home has a fenced outdoor area where she was able to socialize safely with other dogs, and she clearly enjoyed her time there. I would definitely leave my dog with Robert again. I felt completely confident that she was not only safe, but genuinely cared for and loved. I highly recommend him.”
