“Joseph was very prompt and professional, and took great care of my dog. He is a true dog lover, and it shows in his work. I would highly recommended to anyone else that wants only the best for their “kids”.”



“Eilleen is AMAZING!!! Benji is our little rescue cutie! But he has days where he is a bit unpredictable- He is a cuddle bug on his own terms, can be moody and antisocial. As his "fun" aunt (I'm treat and playtime central haha) you would think he would jump for joy at the chance to take a walk with me but, that isn't the case :( He is very particular about who walks him and only let's his dad walk him. So on days dad is working overtime, I stress about how I will convince Benji to go outside. One Sunday he refused to go out they entire day, not one budge and just hid under the table. Dad was working and I was stressing! Well, Eilleen to the rescue! Upon arrival Benji greeted her at the door, like they were forever friends, hopping, tail wagging and cuddles! In amazement I watch Eilleen put kn his leash with out any hesitation from Benji and in a matter of minutes they were off on their walk together! I am so amazed by the instant connection they have and Eilleens impressive job of caring for him. We are so very thankful!! Thank you Eilleen!!!!!!! You are truly the BEST!!”


“Natalie is amazing! Very responsive, gives lots of love and attention to my dog, and loves her like her own! Thanks so much.”


“Britany, Has been walking my 4-5 month old puppy for the last couple of weeks and we have been very happy with her services. For our meet& greet she asked about our pups routines, commands our pup knows, and how he should be rewarded. She has been reliable and Rider really enjoys her visits.”


“I highly recommend Ewelina. Ewelina was great with my Rosie. My Rosie who’s a Shih Tzu can be a little difficult at times but was happy to have Ewelina. When she refused to go out for a walk, Ewelina was able to play with her and coax her into putting on her harness and leash. She took great care of her between walking and playing. Will definitely use her again.”


“Willery did an excellent job walking my 65 pound boxer named Deebo. She followed all care instructions throughly and communicated with me about his progress constantly. I highly recommend her for your pet care needs.”


“Ally was great! She was super gentle with our anxious pup. Will be booking with her again!”


“Rhea & Michael are great, they have been walking my dog (Chloe) for over 6 months now. Chloe is typically quite shy, but she gets excited whenever they show up to walk her. Chloe was a puppy when they first started walking her & they were great with young dogs like her. Can't recommend high enough!”


“Sabrina was amazing for the first time with my crazy pup punctual very informed about her time with my dog and sent pics using her again Absolutely loved her”



“Niomi was amazing with Dolly! She cared for her on her walks and dolly loved her immediately. She would send me great pictures and I knew Dolly was in great hands. I'm so grateful for Rover and Niomi”



“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Patty is an amazing dog walker! She is incredibly kind, patient, and loving with my dogs. She truly understands my older dog, who tends to bark a lot, and handles it with such care and understanding. Patty is very responsible, and I always feel at ease knowing my dogs are in great hands. Highly recommend her services!”


About: I worked at a doggy day care for 7 years. Worked on training with my own, friends, and family. I have a dog and 2 cats of my own, and I am self-taught on cat and dog breeds and behavior. Can administer medications (if the pet allows, if the pet is fighting to much I will not stress them too much). Experience with all ages. I have experience with various forms of feisty pets, I will not force them to do anything they don't want to do, but I am willing to work on building a relationship with them and ensure that you have a competent caretaker for your pets. I work part time but my schedule is fairly consistent, with weekends off. My early morning are generally free, as well as my late evenings. Some times may be negotiable. We all have busy lives and I would love to help make sure your pets are loved and cared for. Currently I am unavailable most Tuesdays and between 12pm-6:30pm I unfortunately do not have the ability to keep any other pets in my home. In my clients homes I will follow all rules and instructions to care for your pets. We can go over walk times, play times, enrichment methods, medications. If you're pet has reactivity issues/displays any reactive behavior towards people, I would like to do several meetings to go over any rules and develop a little bit of a relationship first. I do have experience with reactivit, and every pet is different. My goal is for the safety and happiness of everyone involved.

About: My name is Jenelee and I have a strong passion for animals. I have been taking care and owning dogs ever since I was a kid. I enjoy not only taking care of the animals basic needs, but as well as making life fun for them. Playing games, cuddling and much more. I aspire to be a veterinarian when I am older and will promise to take more than amazing care of your animal. I live in the suburbs and go on a daily walk myself. This fits perfectly into my schedule because I already have the routine of going on walks and would not mind having an animals with me during those. I love being home as well as outdoors and I have a backyard. Your animal can run around in a safe space and have fun! I will always make sure to have eyes on your animal and their safety and care is my number 1 priority. Your animal will be able to have fun while being safe and cared for.

About: I’ve had one cats who is 14 and one dog who is 11 but thinks she’s 1. I’ve walked big and small dogs and even tried to walk our car, he didn’t like it. I’ve had countless other pets too, hamsters, birds and turtles. I work from home and very rarely need to go into the office. I have a very flexible schedule during the week so I’m easy going with visits. I try to be as respectful as possible with the animals and make them comfortable. Some animals need more reassurance than others and I just want them to be happy and calm.

About: I have a genuine passion for the betterment of pet care in the world. There are unique insights from each pet-parent relationship. As a pet sitter, I see the opportunity to learn from every pet parent and respect the distinct qualities of each pet as an individual. I confidently and safely walk dogs under most circumstances. (Relating to age, energy, and location.) The joy of nurturing all my cherished companions is kinda indescribable because each experience is so different and fulfilling in its own way. Taking care of mainly birds, guinea pigs, cats, and dogs has taught me the smallest details to connect without words. I worked for 3 years as a bather at Bubble Bubble Dog Groomers in North Haledon. Trained to handle some sensitivity issues properly! And had 1-year of training at Englewood's Instinct LLC. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to devote ample time to pet care. I prioritize their well-being by cleaning water bowls/ dispensers, fluffing beds, and providing head scratches while giving praise. In the event that I need to step out for a supply run or for any other reason during a live-in stay, I will inform you in advance, ensuring transparency about my departure and return times. The safety of my pets or my client's pet(s) is a top priority. Normal precautions are chaperoning outdoor activities; even in a fenced yard, to ensure the utmost safety and enjoyment for your furry friend. I make sure to dog-proof play areas by meticulously checking for any potentially tempting materials, like small sticks, animal waste, or ingestible objects. I also keep an eye on the temperature and weather forecast to ensure the well-being of the pets in my care.

About: I treat each pet as if they were my own, focusing, not on their basic needs, but also on their comfort, emotional well-being and routine. I’m available for dog walking, drop-ins or drop offs M-F 9-4pm. I’m available to give lots of love, attention and playtime for your furry friend! I will ensure your pet gets its regular physical activity and playtime. I have a large fenced yard and one friendly Golden Retriever to keep your furry friend company. If you’d prefer walks I will treat your home and pet with respect and kindness.

About: I've been caring for dogs and cats since I was 16. I'm trusted by neighbors, friends, and family to walk, feed, check in on, and play with their pets. I’m experienced with animals of all ages, and I always strive to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while with me! As a special education teacher with summers off, I have plenty of availability to care for pets during my free time. Pet sitting and dog walking perfectly fit my active lifestyle and love for animals. I'm reliable, attentive, and enjoy providing quality care when you need it most. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s, my top priorities are safety, comfort, and consistent routines. I take time to learn each pet’s unique needs, such as feeding schedule, exercise routine, and special instructions, so they feel secure and well-cared for. In a client’s home, I treat the space respectfully and ensure pets receive plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and companionship. I provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind.

About: I have owned cats and dogs since I was a child, now I'm a mom to TWO police K9's and a high anxiety breed older dog. I work from home on my own schedule as a realtor, so I can be flexible with care based on the needs of the client. I have two small children at home so, while we do offer vacation sitting- I am unable to stay overnight. However, multiple visits per day is fine. We do also offer kennel boarding at our home as an alternative Any in home visits are under the complete control of the clients instructions, we treat them just as you would! We also have an incredibly clean and sanitary boarding area of our home if you would like that option as well. Lots of playtime in our double fenced in yard is all included in your stay.

“Ellen was wonderful and walked my Ruby twice. Once when she was a bit under the weather. She followed instructions great and Ruby loved her. Will def use again and recommend her highly”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs for years! Growing up I’ve had pitbulls and had to walk and watch them daily. I enjoy all animals and ensuring they have a trusting relationship with me at all times This summer I will be available whenever needed during any time of the week! I can check on pets multiple times throughout the day if needed! At my house I have fences all around my background. Additionally I have an indoor area that connects if the weather gets too hot to remain outside. At the client’s home I would ensure the animal is trusting of me and follow the client’s suggestions of making the animal comfortable with me.

Raven R.
“Let me take a moment to tell you about Raven. I don't think I've met a more compassionate or understanding soul when it comes to animals. It seems like she was born with a gift of being able to work with them. Especially challenging or sometimes violent pets my dog was not a friend of other people or animals and with just a short amount of time of Raven spending time with him, he was much calmer with other people as well as with other animals. Thank you for all your help! Respectfully, Roland”

She gave them lots of love, attention, and exercise, and even sent regular updates and photos, which really helped me relax while I was gone. Not only were my dogs happy and well cared for, but I also came home to a spotless house. Samantha treated my home with the utmost respect and care, which I truly appreciated. I would absolutely trust Samantha again in a heartbeat—she is dependable, kind, and someone you can feel completely comfortable leaving your pets and home with. Highly recommended!”
