Pet Sitting in Wood-Ridge

“We got tons of videos and messages during our 3-day absence from home. Jinghong asked many questions to make sure both cats got what they need.”

“Last week was the first time I had Andrew watch my two boys and boy am I happy that I picked him…and so are the boys! Andrew did a wonder job! He spent extra time with my cats and sent detailed updates with pics every day. He made me very secure in the knowledge that my boys were being well cared for. I look forward to having Andrew take care of my boys in the future!”

“Anna has been watching my puppy a few times a week since she was about 4 months old and my puppy always has the best time. Anna is very thorough and follows all of my instructions regarding my dog’s care. I would recommend her to anyone!”

“We recently hired Victoria to care for our dog, Lela, and our cat, Chloe, for a week — and the experience was absolutely exceptional. Finding someone you can fully trust with your fur babies is never easy, but Victoria went above and beyond in every possible way. From our very first meeting, she was professional, attentive, and clearly passionate about animal care. Throughout our trip, she kept in touch with daily updates, complete with beautiful photos and videos that gave us total peace of mind. When we returned home, Lela and Chloe were happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”

“Luna has been amazing! She’s very friendly, and has provided great updates and photos after all of her visits! Excited to book her again in the future!”

“Peter was great and I would definitely book with him again. He was very thorough, prompt, and followed all of my instructions exactly. I really appreciated the detailed notes he left after each visit, and it was clear from his updates that he took his time and genuinely interacted with my animals instead of just rushing through the visits. He made me feel comfortable knowing my animals were taken care of, and everything was handled professionally from start to finish. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable, attentive, and great with pets.”

“Yong was an excellent Rover sitter for my cats. He was incredibly diligent, followed every instruction exactly, and made sure their medications were administered properly—which was especially important to me. He was also very communicative throughout the stay, sending plenty of pictures and thoughtful updates that gave me total peace of mind. I came home to happy, well-cared-for cats and would absolutely book with him again.”

About: Dogs have always been part of my life. Big, small, and everything in between. Growing up with pups taught me how to love, care for, and understand their unique personalities. I love them all and can’t wait to meet yours! 😀 I have hybrid work environment so I'm home two out of the three days a week if needed. I'm free on most weekdays and weekends. When caring for pets, whether in my own home or in your home home, I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable atmosphere. I ensure regular exercise and playtime tailored to their specific needs and preferences, fostering both physical and mental enrichment. Additionally, I will strictly follow any dietary requirements. Constant monitoring of their health and behavior allows for prompt action in case of any emergencies, and I maintain open communication with the pet owner, providing regular updates and pictures.

About: I have extensive experience working in Veterinary Emergency Care, which has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, safety, and how to recognize even subtle changes in a pet's well-being. I provide personalized boarding in my home and only accept one family at a time, allowing pets to enjoy a calm, low-stress environment with plenty of supervision and one on one attention. Unlike boarding facilities or sitters who care for multiple dogs at once, your pet will receive individualized care in a quiet home environment. I work primarily from home and rarely leave for more than an hour or two, so pets receive plenty of companionship, playtime indoors/outdoors, and potty breaks throughout the day. I'm happy to follow your pet's routine and reinforce any training or habits you're already working on at home. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, high-energy dogs, anxious pets, and dogs that need extra patience or monitoring. I take pride in maintaining a clean, organized, and pet-safe home environment, helping reduce access to potential hazards while providing a comfortable and healthy space for every guest. To ensure a safe and comfortable stay for everyone, I ask owners to disclose any medical, behavioral, or special care needs before booking. While I have experience caring for pets that require extra attention or monitoring, I DO NOT accept dogs that are actively in heat, contagious, or experiencing illness that may impact their stay or the safety, health, and well-being of the pets in my home. Communication is very important to me, and you'll receive regular photos, videos, and updates throughout your pet's stay. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for, and for owners to feel completely at ease while they're away. I work from home, which allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m able to provide regular walks, feeding, and companionship without long periods of absence. I am home most of the time, and if I step out, it is only for short periods (typically no more than 1–2 hours). I keep a calm and flexible routine so each dog can settle in comfortably and feel at home during their stay. ✨ Additional services available: Puppy potty training support during stays. I provide care in a clean, calm, and thoughtfully organized home environment. I typically host only one dog at a time so I can give them my full attention and create a peaceful, low-stress experience. I live just two blocks from multiple large parks, which allows for regular walks and outdoor time. I also have two small Shih Tzus at home who are friendly and used to being around other dogs; however, I can keep them completely separate if needed to ensure your pet feels comfortable and safe.

About: I have had dogs all my life. I have experience with taking care of neighbors and friends pets when they are out of town or just need help. Have trained my dog from a puppy to the wonderful pup she is now. I am very attentive and love to play with pups! I am working a full time job. On the weekends I am open all day if they need constant care. During the week, I am available before 8:30 am and after 5 pm. I have a yard for the pup to play around in, but not fenced in. I do own a long leash if they like to prance around. I live in a very safe, walkable neighborhood- able to get them lots of exercise. No pets live in my home.

About: I’m a very patient and understanding individual, especially with dogs who may need extra time to feel comfortable. We have a rescue dog with a difficult past who doesn’t always feel safe in new environments or around unfamiliar people or dogs, so we truly understand how important it is to find the right fit. That’s actually what inspired me to start Rover, to provide a safe and secure space for dogs like her. I have experience as a dog foster with rescue dogs and those who may be a bit nervous or shy. I have a separate floor in my home where your dog can have a quiet space to decompress and feel comfortable during their stay. Because my dog is territorial and does not get along with other dogs, I will keep her completely separated from your dog. Also have a nice fenced in yard where they can around and play. I would love the opportunity to watch and care for your furry family member :) I work from home full-time in IT, so I’m around all day to keep your dog company. They’ll get enough attention, potty breaks, and won’t be left alone for long periods I have a fully fenced yard with plenty of space for your dog to run and play. Inside, I have a finished basement with windows where they can relax and keep me company. This setup allows me to comfortably separate your dog from my dog and kid , ensuring a safe and stress-free environment.

About: I am interested in giving your pet a comfortable experience and you can be reassured your pet will feel content in my care. I am flexible with my services and would like to be accommodating to different types of dogs and their needs. I provide in home daytime, evening and overnight pet including: dog walks; fed meals; gave treats; refilled water bowls; cleaned litter boxes and other messes; play and cuddle time; recorded date, time and description of services provided after each visit, consciously maintained the safety and well-being of the pets in my care, medication, and reinforced training The same care i put into my own dog i will put into caring for you pet. You can count on a loving pet receiving great care. I can provide 24 hr care to you pet and my full attention. I am available at all times during the week, no distractions or other commitments. I have a fenced yard and 2 dogs. I also have backyard chickens in a fenced in area. My home has a good amount of space for dogs of any size.

“5 stars isn’t enough! Maryann is amazing! She treated our pup like one of her own. She kept us updated on each visit with food and walks and we truly enjoyed the pics and videos! She is kind and caring and was honestly so great with our girl!!”

About: I have taken care of dogs since childhood (had 6 Golden Retrievers since 2002, now have a Bichon Frise). Your pet will feel at home playing with us and our friendly baby. We’re a loving, pet-friendly home where your furry family member will be treated like our own. I work as a part-time behavioral therapist, and my husband works from home two days a week, so there’s always someone around to give your pup plenty of attention, care, and affection. Caring for dogs truly comes naturally to us. Our new home offers a spacious fenced backyard for playtime, along with nearby dog parks and a beautiful nature walking path—perfect for fresh air, exercise, and fun. Your dog will enjoy a safe, happy environment and feel like a part of our family during their stay. Note: Daycare hours are typically between 7 AM and 7 PM (or less). If you need care beyond these hours, please book a boarding request instead. Thank you! Your fur baby will be treated like family in our home! From cozy naps and meals to fun walks and playtime with our sweet pup Archie, I’ll ensure they feel safe, loved, and as close to home as possible while you’re away. My goal is to make their stay comforting, fun, and full of care until their favorite humans return!

“Thank you for taking care of Misfit! Greatly appreciated!!”

“Andrea took such great care of my puppy! She followed all instructions, did some basic training with her and played with her! She has great communication with me and flexible scheduling which is amazing especially having a young puppy !”

About: I had a maltipoo who I cared for for 13 years so I am confident in caring for pups like her. I’ve also had to dog-sit some friends’ dogs who’d I bring for walks, play in the yard, and fill food and water bowls for them while gone! I generally work 3 days a week so I am looking to care and walk dogs for a couple other days during my week to fill my days. I will make sure to close all doors that I have entered and make sure the dog is back in the house before leaving. I will make sure I put everything back to where they were and fill any bowls that I am instructed to make sure the dogs are comfortable until their owners or next person comes to see them!

“Xunzi did a great job! She kept us updated during her visit with our cats and sent a lot of pictures. I would definitely recommend Xunzi for your cats.. Thank you Xunzi.”
