Cat Sitters in South Old Bridge, NJ

Caroline

Caroline was wonderful! She arrived a day before to meet our family & cat and see the house. She sent us daily updates and cute pictures of our cat each morning. She also offered to get us any groceries we might need so they would be ready when we got home. We came home to fresh fruit, flowers, clean sheets and a clean house. I truly appreciated her care. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing she was there to care for our cat because she was such a reliable, lovely person!

Marie

I recommend Marie 100% She was great from start to finish. I receives pictures of my beloved cat every day. Marie was very respectful of my apartment : everything was clean and she even took time to wash the sheets! Thanks Marie 🫶🏻

Sophie

Sophie was great! Attentive to the cats, responsive to us, kept the place in great shape, and very kind and easy to work with overall. Will definitely reach out again next time we need some help!

James

James was awesome!! On top of taking great care of Tarzan, James was communicative and such a great guest and caretaker. It was such a gift coming back to everything super clean and tidy! Since first talking with James it was clear he loves animals, and Tarzan was in great hands while he was here! I absolutely recommend James if you're looking for someone caring, friendly, and responsible to look after your pets and home!

Daphne

Daphne and her partner took care of my girls while I was away for an extended weekend. I've got 2 dogs, one with special needs that demands a lot of love & attention. When I got home, they were barely enthused to see me- a clear sign that they were well taken care of while I was away! My house was clean, bed freshly made and 2 happy dogs- what more could I ask for! I'm so grateful to Daphne and her partner - we'd be lucky to have them sit again in the future.

Noah

Noah watched over my apartment and dog for a long weekend while I was away. I can tell he loves animals, and I know he took really good care of Libby. My apartment was also very tidy and clean upon returning late at night which was such a relief. 10/10 would have him stay again - thank you Noah!

Molly

Otis and Wallace where well taken care of and the place was in lovely condition. Would highly recommend. Never hurts to leave your pets in the care of someone who’s worked at a Vet clinic. Always welcomed.

Dana

Dana was wonderful, self-sufficient, reliable, and communicative!! Thanks Dana, from me, Simon, Evie, and Cindy <3

Rachel & Marco

Rachel and Marco were excellent sitters. They got to know my cat’s idiosyncratic likes and dislikes. They took good care of the house and were easy to communicate with before and urging the sit. They are welcome back here for other sits if they’re available.

Heather

Heather was everything we could ask for to watch our kitties! She came over early to watch us feed them and they took to her right away. Once she settled in, the kitties felt right at home with her. We got so many cute pics and updates from her while we were gone and felt at ease knowing they were being loved and taken care of. The house was just as clean as when we left it and all the kitties looked happy. She was super communicative the whole time and even went the extra mile going to our pharmacy for us to refill our cats prescription when it ran out! We would love to have Heather back to watch the kitties again and we highly recommend her!

TOMOKO

Great experience, we will repeat this!

Lucy & James

Lucy and James took excellent care of Jelly, our home, and our plants! Sylvie is such a sweet baby, and she and Jelly really took to one another. We were really impressed by the photos and cute videos that they sent us of Jelly; the photos were better than any we have taken ourselves. They took Jelly to the beach, the park, and other dog-friendly places. They treated her like part of their family, and we appreciate that they included her in their fun! When we returned, our home was clean, the plants were thriving, and the pup was happy. From meeting them in person and from all our communication, we could tell that Lucy and James are genuinely kind and very responsible people. We felt at ease during our vacation knowing that Jelly was in good hands. I could list more compliments, but suffice it to say, I would recommend them as sitters to anyone. We would love for them watch Jelly any time! Thank you Lucy, James, and Sylvie! 💗

Sarah and Bryce

Clare, her partner and Pup were stellar guests!! She made the time to chat on a video call before the stay so we could get to know each other before the stay. We were given daily updates with photos which we always love to see. Claire also helped out last minute when our neighbors needed help with their dogs for potty breaks on two days of their stay. This meant so much to us that they went out of their way to help us out even more. We came home to some happy pups and a tidy home. We would ask them to come back and highly recommend Clare and her crew if they are ever in your area!

Ronda

We loved having Rachel & Kevin sit with our beloved pups! They were so attentive, attention to detail on everything, fun to communicate with & we came home to happy pups & a clean house. This was our first “sit” experience & theirs, and they made it so relaxing for us. Highly recommend them and we feel lucky to have them nearby!
