Dog Sitters in Dover, NJ

Ranai was a fantastic house sitter and cat whisper. Highly recommend. We have two cats with very different personalities and both of them warmed up to Ranai quickly and ease fully. She was great about sending lots of pictures, videos and updates on both of them, all of which made us smile while we were away. In addition to her love and skill with animals, Ranai was extremely communicative, easy to coordinate with and left the house tidy and in great care. We would welcome her back anytime that she's back in the Bay!

Lizzy and Jack are Awesome!!!! They took such good care of my pups while we were away and we came home to an immaculate house!! Just really warm, genuine people. Such a pleasure!!!

Amazing sitters! Sarah and James (and their dog Laika) stayed with Summit and Maxine for two weeks and were awesome. Dogs got lots of back country adventures, lots of pics and videos of happy, tired dogs, and house was in great shape when we got back. Special props for navigating a rogue 2 ft snow storm in May! Highly recommend!

A simple review seems trivial compared to how grateful we are for Kim and Jim! They took such wonderful care of our pets and our home. They were flexible, accommodating, and stayed in touch with us the perfect amount. Our poor dog had some stomach issues while we were away and they took such excellent care of him, and updated us regularly. We also came home to an immaculate apartment. We wouldn’t hesitate to have them back and wholeheartedly recommend Kim and Jim to anyone in need of fabulous pet care.

This was Kate's second sit with us. This time, Jaret joined her. I really appreciate that Jaret took the time to fetch keys and get to know the apartment and cats some days prior to the sit. I am sure that the cats were well taken care of by the two of them. Both furry friends were very relaxed when we returned. The apartment was clean, and our small garden was well-maintained. Unfortunately, there is a significant downside: our request not to leave items such as clothing, bags, or open suitcases on the floor, as our oldest cat (nearly 16y) tends to pee in/on them (she has this behavior since we got her as a baby), was ignored. This was despite a personal mention during our initial meeting with Jaret, specific warning in the Welcome Guide, and two reminders via WhatsApp when I saw photos of bags lying on the floor. Now, the wooden floor in two rooms of our brand new apartment is "decorated" with two large und one small dark/black urine stains, as the mishaps were only noticed days later and not cleaned up right away. This very costly damage is extremely frustrating for us, even more because it could have been easily avoided. To say that we are disappointed is an understatement.

Malini and partner were amazing, truly. Prompt and sweet, friendly. Were conscientious with the pets. House in perfect order when we came back. Would love to have them again.

Valerie and Mark did a great job with the girls. Highly recommend! When I got back I had several people tell me they saw the “girls” all over the place so I know they were out for lots of walks!

Eli was exceptional caring for my two dogs during this two week stay. She managed some challenging issues with the house and upset stomachs with the dogs extremely well. She kept the house organized and clean and not only cared for the dogs but entertained them and engaged with them each day. I would recommend Eli without the slightest hesitation!

Morgan was an absolutely wonderful pet and house sitter and as a result, my husband and I were thoroughly able to enjoy our 3-week road trip. I felt comfortable with Morgan from our first virtual meeting. I could tell she was very responsible and also that she truly loves animals. As we planned the trip, Morgan and I corresponded frequently, and she was always very responsive. Whe she arrived the day before we left so that we could go over everything, she had already reviewed the instruction document and she had prepared questions. She thought of questions that I had not yet even thought of. By the time we left, the animals were already comfortable with her. Then, Morgan gave us daily updates and pictures throughout our travels, and it was so comforting to see and hear that everything was going well. Our older dog is 13 1/2 and so it was especially hard to leave her. But knowing she and our younger dog and our cat were doing just fine with Morgan made it easy to be away and have fun on our trip. When we arrived home, the house was clean and the animals were clearly well cared for and happy. I would recommend Morgan to anyone.

Bhali and Vid were incredible caregivers to my cat and my home! They were easy to communicate with leading up to their week-long visit and were very self sufficient. I also loved the little touches like sending artistic photos of my cat and a sweet and heartfelt welcome when I came home. I HIGHLY recommend them and will be inviting them back to my own home soon!!

Julie arrived right on time and I was fortunate to spend the evening with her. She is an adventurous young woman and able to work from anywhere. My cat seemed comfortable with her from the start. We contacted each other a few times during the 9 days I was gone and she could report that all was well. I came home to a calm kitty and house just as I had left it. The outside plants managed to survive in the extreme heat with her care. This was her first house sit and I would definitely ask her to sit again.

Shawn and Jennifer were the perfect pet sitters! We could not have wished for better people to look after Salt and Pepa! Not only were they meticulous in keeping up the cat`s routines, nurturing S&P`s idiosyncracies, and keeping them clean, fed, and happy in general, but they went above and beyond finding out what else they could want or need in a truly empathetic way. Shawn and Jen taught them new tricks, played with them often, stayed in with them most of the time and observed them and their characters so well, that it seemed after only a few days like they have known - and loved! - the cats for some time. Before we knew these sympathetic brilliant sitters with heart, brains, and instinct we were nervous about leaving our not even 2 year old cats with strangers for more than a month, especially since Salt can be a fragile soul who is very shy and needs a lot of time to bond with people if she does it at all. Not with these two people. They know how to handle cats professionally. Instead of overwhelming them, Shawn is present and offers them attention and playtime. We were able to fully enjoy our time away from home since they were communicating extremely well and in the frequency we agreed on. So we got pictures or videos of S&P every day and reports. The reports as well as the pics showed us that S&P had an extremely good time, and that after only a few days they behaved completely "normal", i.e. we recognized "our" cats from the way that Jen described them and photographed them. Shawn and Jen are both extremely reliable, down-to-earth and self-sufficient. IF there would have been an emergency, we could not have asked for better guardians. The welfare of the cats was always their first concern. What more can we say but that they are also very friendly, humorous, calm and intelligent human beings. When we came home S&P were like: "Oh.. you..? Ok.. But were are the other two?" In our living room was a carefully arranged series of printed out photographs by Jen the excellent photographer. We are so very thankful to Shawn and Jen that they agreed to look after our kitties - and our home, which they also did without fail - and we are truly happy to have made their acquaintance. Hopefully, we will meet again!
