Cat Sitting West Milford

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats and bunnies my whole life–whether they were my own, neighbors, family or friends. I have a couch potato of a 5-year-old Golden Retriever who I trained when she was a pup and now I handle all of her grooming and day to day needs. If it were up to me, my house would be a full-on animal sanctuary but since that’s not exactly practical, here I am on Rover doing the next best thing which is taking care of your pets like they’re my own! While my kids are at school, I’m a freelancer who works from home so I have the flexibility to help out families who need a trustworthy person to care for their pets. I have never been without a pet in my life, so I truly understand what it takes to care for animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. As a fellow pet owner who also hires sitters on Rover for my own pup, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to treat your pet like their own.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs all of my life, and grown up with them since the day I was born. I’ve never not had a dog, my childhood dog lived to be 16 years. I’m here to do what I love and be able to spend my time with all of your fur babies Im flexible I walk dogs while being able to finish school, I do this Monday through Friday and I’m looking to get more overnight sits for the weekends I care for every animal as if they are my own they will be as equally as spoiled as they would in their own home. The safety of your animal is not in question with me because I understand how much we worry about our animals when they aren’t able to be with us.

About: Hey there Dog parents! I have been around animals starting at a very young age. So basically im obsessed with them. I was always the designated trainer for the new pups. And im pretty good at it. Whenever visiting family or friends you can always find me with the dogs. Family and friends have always trusted me with their furry family members. Wether your on vacation or simply your day is overloaded, I'm happy to offer my services to ease your day! Getting an early start on the day during the week with your pups in the morning works with my schedule. If early morning doesn't work with you, I'm also available late afternoon during the week. My schedule isn't firm so if you have any special requests, I would love to work with you and figure something out! I will always put your fur baby’s needs first. Watching their body language is something that I always look out for. Making you and your pup comfortable is what I strive for.

“I have too many adjectives to describe Colleen. She was extremely trustworthy, communicative, accommodating, caring, thoughtful, kind, responsible and prepared. I always stress when I go away and leave my girls but Colleen alleviated that feeling almost entirely. She even stayed longer than needed the first night. I am very happy with how my girls were treated and will definitely pick Colleen as my sitter next time.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life, from tiny puppies to senior pets, so I understand the care, patience, and attention each stage requires. I have also worked with pet rescues and fostered several dogs while they awaited their forever homes. For years, I’ve been the go-to sitter for friends and family, caring for everything from high-energy puppies to shy rescues. I’m experienced with administering medications, crate training, leash walking, and working with anxious or energetic pets. I work at home most days during the week. I will plan my day around whether I have a special pet visitor, doggie walker, or cat visit. In my home, pets are treated like family. I provide a safe, clean, and cozy environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and walks. Pets are never left unattended for long periods, and I always follow your routines for feeding, exercise, and rest. Whether it’s snuggles on the couch or some playtime, I make sure your pet feels right at home. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your space and your pet’s routine. I follow your instructions carefully to keep things consistent and stress-free — from feeding schedules to favorite walking routes. I make sure pets get the attention, exercise, and affection they need, while also keeping your home tidy and secure.

“Aletris was amazing! They were incredibly attentive and sweet with our kitty and went above and beyond our expectations. Aletris took the job very seriously and made sure nothing would get in their way of taking care of our fur baby, (even if that means resorting to biking to our house when their family needed their car)! We can’t express how happy we are to have found Aletris and I know our kitty felt the same way! Will definitely be hiring them again for future pet sitting needs!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs, cats and parrots all my life. I’ve had the responsibility of walking them, feeding them and playing with them. Now that I’m post-grad I have a cat of my own and am solely responsible for its care. Ive helped neighbors and friends with their animals when they go away on vacation. I am home for the summer with a part time job and this would fit in perfectly with my schedule. i am able to schedule around my other job. In my home we have a fenced in yard and our dogs are sometimes crated when we leave. When they are not crated have gates to set up safe spaces in the house where they can roam.

“Dianna and Shea are just terrific. The are true animal lovers and I love knowing that Dianna has vet assistant experience. As much as I hate to leave my boy, I feel better knowing he is in good hands.”

About: I have over 16 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. I’ve supported dogs through daily care, feeding routines, long walks, playtime, medication administration, and providing comfort while their owners are away. I’m highly intuitive, attentive, and patient, making animals feel safe, calm, and cared for in their own environment. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I take pride in adapting my care to meet their individual needs. Whether it’s an energetic pup who loves adventure or a more sensitive pet who needs a gentle presence, I create a nurturing, reliable experience for both pets and their owners. I offer a flexible schedule and am available for mornings, afternoons, evenings, and overnight care.

About: I have 5 pets of my own; 3 dogs and 2 cats. They are my world, truly. I have had pets most of my life, and have watched other peoples pets previously. Comfortable giving meds, feeding, playing, snuggling, etc. Certified in Cat & Dog First Aid (American Red Cross). Have assisted with dog rescues & fosters. No matter the age or what special care is needed, I am on board. I can be available after 6pm on weekdays, flexible on weekends. I do work full time, so this will be a side job for me. At home we have an electric fence for the dogs, and our cats are strictly indoors. At a client’s home, I will provide all the necessary and recommended care asked from the parents. I am very respectful and responsible. You wouldn’t even know I was there; respecting others’ property is important for me. Remain clean, professional, and respectful.

“Excellent communications and service. On time for every visit. Comfortable with a larger dog. Allie is lovely and sweet. Highly recommend.”

About: I’ve been taking care of pets my entire life, and my family and friends look to me if they need me to dog sit (or pet sit) when they’re away or unavailable. I love animals, and so getting to take care of furry friends is an absolute treat!! I’m currently attending college, so monday and wednesday mornings im out of the house from 8-12. any other time, if given enough notice, i can be available for you and your pets! I live in a family home with my dog daisy, who is very friendly and about 14 years old now. She never fails to be entertained, and I love her with all my heart. I will do the same for your pets :)

“The MOST important thing I look for in a pet sitter is genuine care, love and concern for my pets; Devon has this in spades. The second most important thing I look for is someone who is professional and good at communication: Devon also checks these boxes! My more timid dog normally barks at new people but not with Devon! On some visits there were some small obstacles with my more timid dog but Devon did not get discouraged, was very communicative with me about what was happening, super patient with my dog and great at problem solving with me. Now my timid one is “right at home” with Devon and the other has taken to her like a snug bug in a rug 😊. I would recommend her to others if you are looking for someone longer-term to call “family” to your fur babies!”
