“Alexandrea was absolutely amazing with our two cats! Communication with her was easy and she sent us pictures everyday of our cats. First time trying rover and she went above and beyond for us. Not only did she take great care of the cats, she even cleared snow when there was a storm while we were away, so above and beyond what she came to do! I would recommend her to anyone for care of your pets while you’re away.”

“Katheryn was amazing! This was our first time using a dog sitter. After booking she scheduled a visit to our house to meet our Dog Violet and firm up plans for the weekend. She checked in with each visit which included long walks and pics which our kids loved to see. You can tell she loves her job and animals. It was a great easy experience and we highly recommend Katheryn!!”


“Katelyn was an enthusiastic and extremely competent sitter! She is a good communicator that got along well with our two cats and provided an excellent quality of care. I would definitely book with her again!”

“Excellent! Super friendly, immediate and positive responses, very engaged, incredible with dogs. Even noticed a medical condition in my poodle and offered to help. Even helped with other animals on property. Super thank you! Would 100% recommend. Dependable, honest, proactive, engaging communicator, trustworthy, and non-judgemental.”

“Our very shy cat warmed up to Gabriella surprisingly quickly! She was kind, attentive, and always quick to respond to messages. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again the next time we need a cat sitter.”

“Heather is a great and very attentive caretaker. She dropped in on our kitty once a day while we're were on vacation to feed and water her, scoop her litter box, and play with her a bit. We came home to a happy and relaxed kitty, so we are very pleased. We will be using Heather again in the future!”

“Great experience with Melinda :)! She made the effort to come beforehand fro a meet and greet and she was great with my cats. It was so nice to be away and not worry about my fur babies :).”

About: I grew up around animals my entire life and have always had a genuine passion for caring for them. I have experience with both small and large breeds, from young puppies to large dogs like Great Danes, as well as cats. I’m comfortable caring for high-energy and hyper dogs and make sure they get the exercise, structure, and attention they need. I always follow your pet’s training, routines, and any special requirements to ensure consistent, safe, and loving care. I work from home, which allows me to be readily available throughout the day to give your pet plenty of attention, care, and supervision. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate walks, feedings, playtime, and any special routines your pet may need. Your pet will never be left without care or attention. I don’t have children, which creates a calm and stress-free environment—ideal for pets who may not be accustomed to kids. I know several enclosed dog parks where dogs can safely play, socialize, and burn off energy. My home is clean, secure, and pet-friendly. If I stay at a client’s home, I also provide light cleaning services to maintain a tidy and comfortable environment. I have a reliable car for any emergencies or vet visits, and I am attentive, responsible, and committed to providing a safe, loving, and comfortable space for every pet.

“I booked Kara on a fairly last minute notice. I had a house sitter while I was away but due to his work schedule I wanted to make it easier on him and less stressful on my dogs by keeping their feeding and outside schedule closer to what they are used to. Kara communicated very well and sent pictures daily when she was at the house. I would definitely consider her for additional services like walking or boarding.”


About: I have extensive experience caring for cats at every stage of life. I’ve been caring for cats since I was 5 years old, starting with my first cat, Rosie, and have since gained hands-on experience with both kittens and senior cats. I’ve also raised four kittens (three rescues), so I understand the patience, attention, and consistency young cats need to thrive. I’m especially comfortable with senior cat care, including administering medications, managing special diets, and assisting with more advanced needs like subcutaneous fluids. I’m very attentive to subtle changes in behavior or health—something especially important with cats—and can provide a higher level of care for those with medical needs. While my primary focus is cats, I do have experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs through my own pets and those of friends and family.

“Tracy is AMAZING. If I could give more than 5 stars I would in a heartbeat. Bean loves her so much!! Not only does Tracy watch her all day, she takes her on walks, helps with training, snuggles with her etc. I was so worried to send my Bean to daycare generally speaking, but to say we’re lucky to have found Tracy is an understatement!!!”

About: Hi! I'm a passionate animal lover with several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I previously helped manage a busy dog daycare in Central Jersey, so I'm comfortable handling multiple dogs while making sure each one gets the attention they deserve. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. Whether it's playtime, walks, cuddles, or sticking to their normal routine, I'll treat your furry family member like one of my own. I also offer grooming services, making it easy for your pet to come home happy, clean, and well cared for. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and communicative every step of the way. I can't wait to meet you and your best friend! I am a stay at home mom, so I have plenty of time to get your pup out and get some energy out of them! I care for every pet as if they were my own. I follow their normal routine for feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and medications (if needed) to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. Whether in my home or yours, your pet will receive plenty of love, attention, playtime, and regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
About: I have 3 years of experience taking care of cats and dogs of a variety of breeds, and have worked with puppies as well as older pets in home environments such as suburbs, cities, and rural areas. I am happy to cater to your pet's special needs, and I focus on respecting each pet's boundaries and getting to know them on a case by case basis, with the hope that they grow to trust me as much as they trust you! Since I am a writer who works remotely, I am open on a weekly basis and am able to be flexible in order to meet your scheduling requirements. I work hard to ensure that your pet's personal boundaries are not crossed while we take time to get to know each other. I especially care about learning their preferences in order to earn their favor and eventually their trust. Depending on each pet, I try to be very sensitive to any shifts in their mood or behavior, such as if they get anxiety when left alone or are afraid of loud weather.
“Alexxis is amazing! She’s on time, reliable, and wonderful with my pup. She’s been great when I’ve needed a quick schedule change or with any special needs my dog has. She’s the best”

We do not have a fenced in yard but we do have plenty of space to run around on leash! We also have close to 60 acres of hay fields we enjoy hiking with our dogs when the weather is nice. I have worked with special needs animals at an animal sanctuary. During my time there I learned how to administer medications to both dogs and cats. I have experience working with senior pets as well as pets with various disabilities. I feel it is very important to take the time to get to know the animal which is why I am looking forward to a meet and greet with everyone who is interested in using my services! Please feel free to message me anytime with questions, comments or concerns! I am currently a stay at home mom. As of right now my schedule is flexible. I am available for drop ins, boarding and doggy day care. I have three large dogs that are well versed with new dogs coming and going. Patches in particular is our younger pup and LOVES playing with other dogs.

About: I’ve taken care of everything from small cats to wolf dogs. I will be able to take care of your pets, they will be happy with me. I typically only work in the early morning at my regular job so I will have plenty of time for your furry babies. I can either stay with them or do check ins a few times per day. I care for your pets by going by whatever schedule or rules you set out. No matter what, I will do my best to make sure they are happy and safe.
About: With 6 years of dedicated experience in pet care, I provide a comprehensive and compassionate service tailored to the unique needs of each animal. My expertise extends beyond basic care to include specialized skills such as positive reinforcement-based puppy training, helping to establish good habits from an early age. I also have a deep understanding of senior dog care, including administering medication, providing gentle exercise, and creating a comfortable, low-stress environment. I have experience managing a variety of medical conditions, ensuring your furry family member is safe and well-cared for at all times. My goal is to be a trusted partner in your pet's health and happiness, providing peace of mind while you're away. Each morning starts with feeding, watering, and a potty break for the pets in my care. This is followed by a morning walk or playtime to get their energy out and start the day on a positive note. Throughout the day, I follow individual schedules, which might include specific feeding times for puppies or senior dogs, medication administration, or scheduled walks and potty breaks. The afternoon often includes another round of playtime or enrichment activities, such as puzzle feeders or training sessions, to keep their minds engaged. Evenings are typically quieter, with a final feeding and potty break before a relaxing wind-down. My weekly routine involves a bit more planning. I coordinate with pet owners to schedule walks, check-ins, or overnight stays. I also use this time to restock on supplies and keep detailed records of each pet's behavior, eating habits, and health. If a pet is in my care for an extended period, I might schedule a grooming appointment to ensure they're in top shape. My schedule is built around the needs of the pet, ensuring they receive consistent, loving care and that their owners have peace of mind. Caring for pets, whether on my own or a client's, requires a responsible and attentive approach to ensure their well-being. A fundamental aspect is providing a consistent routine, including scheduled feeding times with high-quality, species-appropriate food and fresh water that is always accessible. Regular exercise is crucial for both physical and mental health; this can range from daily walks for dogs to interactive playtime. Environmental enrichment, such as toys, scratching posts, and comfortable bedding, helps prevent boredom and destructive behaviors. It's also vital to maintain a clean and safe living space by regularly cleaning food and water bowls, litter boxes, and bedding. Beyond daily care, a thorough pet care plan includes regular grooming, such as brushing and nail trims, and staying up-to-date on veterinary care, including vaccinations and preventative treatments for fleas, ticks, and worms. For client homes, clear communication is paramount. It is important for me to obtain detailed instructions regarding the pet's specific needs, routines, medications, and any behavioral quirks, as well as emergency contact information. This holistic approach, combining routine care with attention to individual needs and a focus on safety and hygiene, ensures a happy and healthy life for any pet under my care.
