Pet Sitters in Washington Township, NJ

Ke

Ke was an excellent sitter! We ended up having to extend our trip unexpectedly and were so grateful that she was able to extend her time with Bo. She was very self-sufficient, tidy, and sent great pics of Bo which we always appreciate. It was obvious that she really enjoyed hanging out with him and giving him lots of cuddles and attention. We'd have her back any time!

Jonathan & Olia

Jonny and Olia were absolutely ideal housesitters. They communicated proactively and thoroughly every step of the way and took excellent care of my furry darling. They were very conscientious and considerate. I got lots of cute photos of them hanging out with my dog while I was away and arrived home to a clean house and a happy puppy! Thank you both again. Warmest wishes xx

Lisa & Arjen

Lisa and Arjen were wonderful beyond expectations. Right from the initial meeting over zoom I felt they were perfect for our pets and our home. We left earlier than planned and were not able to show them around the house and meet the pets beforehand. That didn’t phase them. They jumped right in and managed everything beautifully. Arjen even did some repairs on the car. My doggies will miss them. They took them for walks, cuddled them and sent us tons of pictures. I could see the furry family was really content. And we came home to a spotless house!! I highly recommend Lisa and Arjen. You will be so happy to have them care for your pets and home.

Molly

Molly was absolutely a delightful sitter and I felt Prince was definitely well taken care of. They left the home perfectly clean and tidy, and I loved all of the photos and updates I got of Prince on his adventures. Would recommend Molly to anyone for pet sitting! Prince approved :)

Ari

Ariella is a thoughtful and considerate person who took excellent care of everything in my absence. My cat was very happy when I returned from my trip, and the house was tidy and sparkling.

Samyuktha

Unfortunately the sit did not go as expected. Samy arrived 30 mins late to our appointment even if she was aware of the time sensitivity because we were catching a plane. During the stay, we had to ask her for daily updates and when we arrived, the house was dirty, the living room window open (even if we told her not to leave windows open for the cats) and the bedroom did not seemed aired in days.

Celeste & Matthew

Diligent, conscientious, detail oriented. Warm, generous, considerate, chatty and upbeat. House proud. Sent lovely updates. Explored our local neighbourhood and shared their experiences. We came home to a happy and well loved dog and a pristine house. Simply the best. We were so lucky to have them. Thank you so much.

Heidi

Heidi was very friendly and trustworthy. She made a nerve racking first experience leaving my home and pets with a stranger much more comfortable. She seems genuine and is easy to talk to, flexible and communicative. Above all, she truly seems to adore and understand animals. I would have her sit again in a heartbeat.

Paul

Paul was a very friendly and caring house sitter. He is very respectful, cares deeply for pets. He is very professional, detail oriented and organized.

Andreas & Carolyne

Andreas and Carolyne took on the huge responsibility of caring for my cat with cancer knowing anything could happen and my beloved kitty might have to be euthanized on their watch. In addition, both of my cats require twice daily asthma treatments. Both cats were very well taken care. Luckily, the cancer didn't progress much while I was away and they sent me frequent emails with photos and updates regularly. The apt. was also well taken care of. It wasn't easy to leave my cat and I am very grateful to Andreas and Carolyne for sitting for me.

Laura

Laura did a great job taking care of my dog and my apartment. She sent a daily update, as requested. The apartment was clean and tidy upon our return and our dog was doing well.

Meredith

We were so lucky to have Meredith stay with our cats for the week. She kept us updated with photos, and the cats adored her. We came home to absolutely spotless house. We would welcome Meredith back anytime!

Matt

The best fur family!!! We had a great time spending a week with Lucky & Salty. Lucky is a sweet cat who loves her naps but is also quite the cuddle bug for a cat! She loved crawling onto our chest or laps (particularly at night) and asked for lots of pets. She is the sweetest kitty we have met! And then there's Salty. What a personality! Salty is the best buddy to have whilst we worked remotely. He loves playing tug of war with his toys and absolutely loves his walk time! He is so funny and such a character. We miss him terribly!
Annalyse and Matt have a beautiful home in lovely Sebastopool. Super safe neighbourhood with so many areas to walk Salty in. Their home was cozy and inviting and we loved watching the sunset on the balcony every evening. We were lucky enough to meet with Analyse and Matt on the day of the sit and they thoroughly walked us through how to take care of their fur fam and all the things about their home. 
We had the best time and really hope we can come back and take care of Lucky and Salty again - we miss them so much!
If you ever have the opportunity to pet sit here, don't hesitate - do it! Salty & Lucky are the best!

Zelda

Zelda and Dieter are absolutely lovely, warm and welcoming people. We had a great 5 day stay in their home. Papillon & Benito are so easy to look after because they’re very happy around new people, and enjoyed lots of strokes and cuddles. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your home, we loved the area and did lots of countryside and coastal walks.

Hannah

Absolutely fantastic in all aspect of this sitting.
This experience will stay in my heart as like one of the most delicious pudding after a long lunch in the country side. Perfect in every way.

Thank you so much for letting me taking care of Helmut - I think of him like a very best friend.

Gabi

This was a very short sit but oh so lovely! Gabi had everything organized.  She lives in a lovely condo surrounded by lakes so there are loads of places to walk. Eddie is a sweetheart so don't let his breed fool you! He is gentle as can be and friendly with other dogs along the way. He doesn't strain or pull you. A great gentleman! I'd gladly come again!

Michael

Michaels house is wonderful with panoramic views, character, privacy, space and easy access to beaches etc.  Michael is easy going and welcoming, I quickly felt relaxed in his convivial company.  Cybi the Whippet is very easy to care for, intelligent, gentle and quiet. I would highly recommend this house sit.

Carolina

These two pets are the cutest, cat always asking for scratches and the doggy loves to cuddle next to you every night. Love this sit!
