“Jessica is great with my dog Penelope. She takes lots of pictures and provides updates, and Penelope loves her dog. I always know Penelope is being spoiled and well taken care of when she’s with Jessica.”
“Kate was great and was so flexible with our crazy holiday travel plans. She sent frequent photos and assured me my dog was doing just fine. She was communicative, prompt and was a total life saver for us! Would absolutely book with Kate and her sweet family again.”
“We felt so comfortable boarding our dog with Seureon and Dongkwan! We received tons of photo updates throughout his stay, and they were responsive and flexible whenever communicating through logistics. Our dog is very hyper, but he seemed nice and worn out from playing when we picked him up. We will be boarding our dog here again!”
“Lucas & Katherine kept us updated and treated our Bentley with nothing but love and care! We look forward to having them as our new sitters! They are amazing!”
“Lulu and I met Ji and there was an instantly connection. As she had never met Ji and was in a different environment, Lulu seemed content. Ji kept me updated on Lulu’s adjustment, which stated was going well. I truly appreciate Ji being able to take care of Lulu on such a short notice. Hopefully in the future if needs arrives Ji will be able to take care of Lulu again.”
“It was our dog's first night away from us and we feel so fortunate to have found Shaun S. Shaun and his family treated Betty with such love and took so much time to understand our dog, Betty's, routine and personality prior to her visit. It was so nice to receive so many pictures and even videos during her stay... he kept us posted the whole time. When I arrived to pick her up, Betty's tail was wagging as she "introduced" me to Shaun - along with his son and wife. What a lovely family and the perfect home to leave Betty. We already booked 2 more stays!”
“Lisa takes responsibility for dog sitting to heart, ensuring good pet care with affection. She was very professional, while ensuring my dog’s time was like home away from home. She will be my go-to for dog sitting in the future.”
“If I could give this sitter 100 stars, I would! I acquired my dog, not long ago as a foster and we have been inseparable since Jan 1, 2023. Leaving her with someone was literally giving me anxiety and she’s such a sweet dog and I didn’t want her in the wrong hands. After a few messages over the app I knew I made the right choice! I cannot express enough the high quality of care that my dog received. They treated her like one of their own. There were lots of updates and videos! My dog became best friends with everyone and her household and I am so thankful for them. I will most certainly use her again in the future! If you’re looking for someone who is trustworthy look no further-I promise you, you won’t regret it!”
“Megan & Nick are THE best. They welcomed our 3-yr old American Staffy into their home and took excellent care of her for a week. They will be my go to for sure and I can vouch for them without reservation!”
“Bonnie took amazing care of our yorkie Spike for 4nights. She and her husband scheduled a meet and greet where they had an initial interaction with Spike and talked to us about his needs/routine. Due to pancreas’s issues he is on a strict diet and likes to drink a lot of water. Bonnie accommodated this without issue, adjusted to Spikes routine, and gave him frequent potty breaks. She sent us pictures and videos multiple times a day, which I loved 🥰. We could tell he was comfortable by the images and when we returned to pick him up, could see that he was well taken care of and happy. Will definitely rebook again- Thank you Bonnie and family for taking such great care of Spike!!”

“Abbe was wonderful! She was so communicative leading up to the visit and during Autumn’s stay with her. My pup can get anxious being in a new space and she made her feel comfortable. It was such a peace of mind knowing she was being cared for. I highly recommend Abbe!”
“Megan & Nick were absolutely stellar dog sitters. They answered all my questions and accommodated a rushed request for both the booking and a meet and greet. They were extremely communicative throughout the whole process and put a new dog dad at ease. I would remiss to leave out the lovable Bubba, who was a most gracious host, sharing his toys and his space. He and Rigby were fast friends. The whole family was lovely, clearly dog lovers.

“Vanessa has a great place, very suitable for doggies : Vanessa her family did a great job with our little furry baby girl. She keeps us informed with pictures/ videos and messages . Thank you so much again Vanessa”
“This was Oreo’s second day here and it was just as amazing as the first. He is almost 12, very particular about people, and not the easiest dog to win over — so the fact that he was excited to go back says everything. As chaotic as our day was, it was such a huge relief knowing he was happy, comfortable, and in such good hands. Jackie’s flexibility, kindness, and obvious love for dogs really stood out. It is not easy to find someone you fully trust with your dog, especially one with a picky personality, but this truly feels like a safe, loving, and comfortable home for him. We are so grateful to have found Jackie and will absolutely continue to book again (already have) 😉”

“Lisa was great with our dog, Flynn and we appreciated her professionalism and dependability. Her experience with rescue dogs was a plus - knowing they need some patience when introduced to new people - Flynn took to Lisa right away.”
“Trisha is absolutely wonderful! My 3 dogs (a pit bull, Ridgeback and chihuahua) loved her instantly. I never had someone else care for my dogs as long as I've had them so I was a bit nervous but Trisha made me feel so comfortable. I work 12 hour days and my husband left the country for a month and I would have been lost without her! 5 days a week at noon and she was always in time and sent photos! She took the time to give one of my dogs (who had to be put to sleep that month) so much extra love and attention because I couldn't be there. I thought I had to make the decision alone but she was there to help me through it, comfort me and check up on me. She goes above and beyond for her clients and their babies. She's the best!”
“Diane was great and really took care of my dog Timber on his walk. She was very communicative and I felt very comfortable and knew I had nothing to worry about while I was at work - Thank You!”
“This is our second time using Alexandra and have been very pleased with the experience. She is reliable and communication has been great, and gives us peace of mind knowing our dogs are in good hands. We would highly recommend her!”
“She was so incredibly sweet and thoughtful. It was a luxury to not have to worry about Hazel while I was at work, I knew she would get the love/cuddles/play she was looking for on days with her. And the ability to relieve someone of stress by a service that she is clearly great at, that’s a win win”

About: Hi, I'm Xiomara and currently live in the Chatham, NJ area. I'm a huge lover of pets and have had many growing up and continuing over the years into adulthood. I currently have one cat at home, who is almost 14 years old and at times help take care of my family's Shih Tzu. Our previous family dog had diabetes, so I have experience administering medication should that be necessary. I love dogs and cats, whether they are young or old equally, and you can trust your pet will get the best treatment from me. I work from home with a pretty flexible schedule, so I'll have time to play with your fur babies and am available any day you may need. My home is smoke free, one level and has just enough space for your pet to run around safely. My cat will also be around to keep them company.
About: I have either owned or taken care of dogs since I was very young. I began dog sitting around 10 years ago. I can come to your home or do in home visits. I have taken care of dogs of all sizes from Cane Corsos to Bassett Hounds and many more. I currently work remotely and am home during the day. That gives me a lot of extra time especially to care for my animals as well as others. I have a separate room for cats to stay in that has a screen door. They can see out but not get out as well as my cats can see in but not get in. I also have a "privacy gate" so they cannot see eachother.
About: I currently work at a luxury dog hotel, where part of my job is to take care of the dogs, making sure they are fed and hydrated, ensuring their safety, and constantly being mindful of their welfare. I would also do this for your dog. I've always wanted to work with animals, and I've been fortunate enough to fulfill that ambition. My top goal is keeping your dogs safe. which is why I've had the honor of earning my canine CPR certification.I consider myself fortunate to be able to assist someone with keeping an eye on their dog. I am presently employed in a part-time position, typically working from 1 PM to 7 PM for approximately five to six days out of the week. In addition to having two amiable dogs who can keep your puppy company at all times, I have a large, fenced yard that allows me to be outside with your dog.
About: I have had dogs for 25 years, we had 2 rescue dogs when our kids were growing up. Since then I have walked and dog sat for many different families. I prefer to have 1 dog at a time for dog sitting overnight and for weeks at a time. I have had people’s dogs stay with me for several weeks at a time. It is such a rewarding experience and I love meeting so many different dogs. They bring so much love and affection to me and I give the same or more love back to them. I am working F/T starting in October. Right now I am able to walk the dog(s) anytime of day to meet their schedule. When I start working I could walk the dog in the morning before work and again at 3:00 when I will be getting home from work, and again in the evening. I enjoy long walks and would take the dog with me and give him/her some exercise. I also have my son who works in Westfield who could take the dog for a walk at lunchtime. I am an active person and can never have enough walking, etc. I would love to sit/walk your favorite furry family member. I have a partially fenced yard therefore I will never let the dog out without a leash. I have a huge backyard with lots of trees and foliage. Your dog will have a great time here inside or outside. I have lots of love and affection to share with your pet.a

“It was our dog's first night away from us and we feel so fortunate to have found Shaun S.

It was so nice to receive so many pictures and even videos during her stay... he kept us posted the whole time. When I arrived to pick her up, Betty's tail was wagging as she "introduced" me to Shaun - along with his son and wife. What a lovely family and the perfect home to leave Betty.

“Yanina, and her family treated her like she was already part of their family. They were especially understanding when we had to drop our dog off later than our initial time. She sent us pics during our vacation and updated us. I was relieved that they had a fenced in yard because dalmations love to run. We picked up our fur baby in great shape. Thanks to Yanina and her family we will definitely rebook in future.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Josh took amazing care of our Bichon Frise, Quartz, for two weeks and even accommodated an extra day when our plans changed. It was clear that Quartz was well cared for, loved, and treated like family. Josh was dependable, communicative, and made the entire process convenient and stress-free. We truly appreciate his flexibility and the excellent care he provided. We will definitely use Josh again for future dog care needs and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Thank you, Josh! 🐾”
About: I love animals and have experience working with and sitting for a wide range of them, including dogs, cats, and small or exotic animals. I myself have owned over twenty parrots (currently have two in the aviary!) and have extensive experience with fishkeeping — I have four cycled, walstad fish and shrimp tanks! I can walk your dog, clean your cat’s litter box, and even do water changes for your fish if needed! Anything to make sure your little guys are well cared for! I’m a graduate student who will be free over the summer, so my schedule is flexible until late August. I can make myself and my home available as needed. I live in a townhome that features a large, lush, and open neighborhood to walk your dogs in. My home has two floors; the first floor is where your pet will stay. When your pet is in my home, they are treated like members of my family. They will be fed, walked, and enriched on your schedule, and will be allowed to sit on the couch and even sleep in my bed at nights if comfortable. I take great care to ensure that your pet’s stay is comfortable and fun-filled. In my home, I currently have two budgies in a large cage and two betta fish, each in 5-10 gallon tanks. The parrots are allowed to free fly for most of the day, but they will be put away or kept caged when your pets are being boarded. When I am in your home, I cultivate the utmost respect. I try not to disturb or move anything that’s not necessary. I’ll make use of only what’s given to me with regards to caring for your pet, and leave everything else exactly how I found it.
“Amrit was fantastic! Super communicative and kind. I could tell our cat was well taken care of for the week he spent with Amrit. Amrit was also very flexible and understanding with changes in plans. HIGHLY recommend and would 1000p book with him again!”
“I felt very confident leaving my elderly dog Blue with Paul. Paul gave him his medications and special concoction of food with no problem. He set Blue up for comfort and ease while I traveled, and sent me photos and updates for my peace of mind. I highly recommend Paul for your pet sitting needs!”
“Extremely friendly and accommodating - Abbe made our last-minute vacation possible! Our dog looked so happy in the photos and came home exhausted from all of the attention. We will definitely use Abbe again!”
“Thank you to Connor and his dog Maggie for hosting Fiona! Connor sent us pictures during the entire stay which was reassuring that Fiona was having fun! She came home exhausted giving us lots of kisses. Thanks for taking care of Fiona and wiping her out! We will be seeing you guys again!”
“Jacquelyn took great care of Mimi. She kept me updated with pictures. Mimi made herself right at home! That was a sure sign she was happy and comfortable! Would book again!”
About: Hi, I’m AnnMarie! I’ve been caring for animals since I was young, but really started understanding the love and care they need when I got my first cat and first dog at 7 years old. I grew up with Labrador retrievers, a blue front Amazon parrot, cats, frogs, fish, hermit crabs, and some others I’m definitely forgetting as I write this. I currently have a dog named Maple, a spunky, confident, and affectionate 1.5 year old corgi who would love a few more friends like your dog or cat! She grew up in a home with a ton of other dogs and cats and is always up for playdates and sleepovers. I’m capable of providing whatever your animal needs - a long (or short) walk, playtime, snuggles on the couch, meals, and commands/trick reinforcement. I also have experience administering medications to dogs and cats, including eye drops, and can manage other normally challenging health conditions or issues. I currently work full time but have availability in the evenings (usually after 6pm) on weekdays for drop in visits or walks, and most weekends are completely free for boarding, day care, drop ins, or walks! I frequently update my calendar to give clients the best idea of my availability. If you don’t see something/the dates you’re looking for, please reach out and we can discuss. I have an extremely friendly dog to keep yours company, but if the preference would be separation between yours and mine, that works perfectly fine too! I have a spacious home with multiple bedrooms and a large backyard, though it isn’t completely fenced just yet! I’m also a short drive from a huge park, where I frequently walk my dog, otherwise I keep walks local.
“We have continued to book boarding for our dog with Saty. Our experience with the level of care and attention they give to our dog is unmatched and we continue to be very pleased. Highly recommend Saty for loving pet care.”
“Ilene is a wonderful pet sitter. Our sweet dog, Zoe, seems to love going and gets outstanding care and attention while with Ilene. On the most recent stay, Ilene administered two different eye drops multiple times each day, a difficult task as I well know since Zoe resists with every bit of her considerable boxer strength! Zoe came back with her eye basically healed. As long as Ilene is available, we use her every time we have to leave Zoe. We have absolutely no reservations in doing so.”
