Pet Sitters in Audubon, NJ

Sarah & Abraham

Sarah was an excellent pet sitter--I truly couldn't have asked for someone more attentive to the cat's needs or to my being informed via photos and texts. They also left the apartment neat and clean, which was much appreciated.

Marilyn

Marley was a good communicator before and during the sit, left the house clean, watered our plants for us, left good closing notes and, most importantly, sent regular pictures showing two happy kitties. She also left us some very nice veggies and other items for our enjoyment upon returning home!

Heidi

Very grateful to have selected Heidi to accompany Max during our vacations. In addition to being very affectionate with Max, very organized and very neat in the house she is a very physically active person, so that every day she made Max enjoy long walks. She was always keeping us informed about Max while we were out of the country. We would definitely like her to visit us again for company and exercise with Max.

Adam

Adam was a great house sitter for me, for nearly a week! He was great about taking all my instructions before the sit happened so I knew he knew where everything was and what was expected of him (and I didn't have to worry about explaining things while I was on my trip!). He was also great about communicating with me throughout the week about how my cat was doing (I asked for pictures). He went out of his way to play with my cat and to keep my home neat and clean. I felt very secure and at ease being away and knowing Adam was holding down the fort.

Allyson

Allyson took wonderful care of my 4 dogs , cat and my home as if it were her own. Even my old deaf yorkie seemed to love her. She was very self sufficient and capable. I would welcome her back at anytime.

Erica

erica is an extremely kind person who took great care of bodhi and always kept me in the loop as to how it was going. she would send pictures of bodhi everyday so i knew he was very loved and taken care of. she is a great communicator and i felt very relaxed being far away from home and knowing her and her daughter were taking care of my home and my little guy.

Jenna

Was a pretty stressful trip, but Jenna really did everything to hold up the house sit and it was such a pleasure to come home to clean and tidy house and a happy calm kitty, thanks Jenna!

Brenna & Adam

We were a bit nervous since this was only our 2nd sit and longest (9 days) overall, but Brenna helped ease those fears. She sent pictures of the animals, kept us informed of updates, and left the house clean and tidy. We could tell they were loved and cared for when we got home. We truly appreciated her kindness for our pets and home. Thank you, thank you!

Khriesean

Khriesean came in for me in a clutch moment. I put that sit up within days of needing a sitter. He not only helped me out very last minute but also came in and kept my puppy happy. It took him two attempts to get Happy warmed up to him. The second one lasted hours I believe. He had to FaceTime me where I saw him crawl under the bed multiple times to ease tensions with Happy who was very anxious because he’s not used to being around strangers in his home. We had just moved too so he was already out of his element. Thank you so much Khriesean for being so kind to him and then living on him all week and sharing his happy puppy face with me throughout. It was lovely to see the complete shift in his energy and kept me from worrying while I’m gone.

Jenna

We had a wonderful experience with Jenna! She was super communicative from the start and we were able to easily figure out the details of her arrival time and departure. She asked a lot of clarifying questions about our dogs' needs before the sit so we were on the same page. She kept us up to date about her arrival time, which was super helpful as we needed to coordinate getting to the airport. Our two dogs warmed to her immediately, which is not always a guarantee for our dog Otto who tends to be more standoffish when we leave him with someone else. Jenna was also able to give our dog Kiko her nightly medications - this was the first time we have had a sitter administer meds, so we were initially a little worried about it as Kiko can be a bit sassy. Jenna sent us lots of updates and pictures during her stay (love this!). We returned to a super clean and tidy house and happy dogs. We would be more than happy to have Jenna come sit for us again and recommend her for other people seeking a reliable, caring and communicative sitter.

Breighton

Breighton did a great job watching over my cat Bubba. It was clear she was experienced with pet sitting, and also took care of my apartment. She reached out when Bubba was being shy in the beginning, which is typical of him, but I knew she wanted the best experience for him. Would recommend Breighton as your future pet sitter.

Anthony & Nancy

Excellent sitters, left the house neat and clean. The cats were in a great mood upon my return, healthy and cat happy. I would definitely have them take care of my animals again. Communication and responsibility were top notch.

lisa

We received a warm welcome from Tula, Spud and Lolly in Alderholt and felt very comfortable staying in Lisa's spacious home, cooking on the Aga and relaxing in the beautiful garden. We enjoyed several walks in the New Forest with the dogs, and cuddles with the cat in the evenings. Overall a great experience!

Jennifer

It was such a pleasure to meet Jenny and take care of Fawn and Pickles while she traveled. Jenny was extremely helpful, organized and kind. Her apartment is lovely. Pickles is as adorable as he sounds. Sweet, cuddly and curious. Fawn is so special. I loved carrying her around and making sure she was warm and comfortable. Her snuggles make your heart happy. Jenny, Pickles and Fawn make it easy to love being a pet sitter. As I was leaving Pickles and Fawn were standing at the front door together watching me go. I was only with them a few days, but it was apparent that we had already grown attached to each other—which is why I’m so grateful to already be scheduled to go back soon. I’ll take every opportunity I can with them! ❤️

Lee and Joanne

Lee and Joanne were extremely welcoming into their home in this remote part of France. The charm of this ancient land of the Bretons was obvious and powerful, making this sit into an historic adventure. Nearby attractions were the fields of the 1000 stone Saints and the statue of the heavy horse in Callac.

The chickens were easy to look after. The only other life was the neighbour who was friendly, and his dog, who was a bit too friendly, bringing me presents that I didnt actually require. The house was small, yet elegantly designed and furnished. Outside were barns, workshops and logs stores. it was quiet, and dark at night, with birdsong to wake up to. In spite of plentiful wood, I was not able to keep the house or myself warm, but I put this down to my being pampered and the open plan of the house.  The only door was between the kitchen and the bathroom, where the earth closet was. With regard to this, I found this too "earthly" ! and I would have chosen to have located it in one of the outside dwellings, as I found that it did not enhance the atmosphere in the life to be lived in the house. This aside, I enjoyed walking in the local fields on my own, cooking small meals and relaxing in front of the wood burner. Thank you,  Lee and Joanne, for the Breton biscuits and the French crepes. 

In conclusion, the sit was intriguing and restful.

Ariana

Ariana's place was a nice cozy cottage by the beach and the proximity was great! The surrounding area was nice located near a church and a school. There are plenty of sidewalks and convenient locations where you can walk the dog. We had a great time watching over Bear, he is indeed a very well behaved dog and loves to play fetch!

Dean

Dean, Diana and their 4 rescue pups were such a pleasure to house/pet sit for!  I was a little nervous because I've pet sit for 1 dog in the past at a time, but not 4.  These dogs are so well behaved and sweet, I almost didn't want to leave!   They have a loft upstairs that includes an entire movie theatre room, which connects to your huge bedroom and attached bathroom (which is decked out with a really impressive Freddie Mercury collection).  I told Dean and Diana I don't know who got the better deal here-thank you both so much for making me feel right at home.  I can't wait to come back and hang out with your 4 very sweet "kids" again :)

Elaine

I had a very enjoyable stay at Elaine and Peter’s home looking after the gorgeous Evie. Elaine, Peter and Amelia made sure I felt right at home straight away and kindly gave me some information about the neighbourhood, walks to do and places to visit. Amelia also wrote me a gorgeous thank you card as well which was incredibly sweet and thoughtful! Evie was very well behaved and a pleasure to look after, such a beautiful natured dog. 

Thank you for letting me stay at your home, being so accommodating for me and looking after your beautiful Evie!
