Pet Sitters in Westfield, NJ

Mia

It was a pleasure to have Mia watch my Kajsi bug while I was gone! I was at camp staying busy and Mia took great care of Kajsi, often with little opportunity for communication. She was communicative about problems and when settling in, sent photos periodically, etc. She was understanding and adapted well with Kajsi’s slow transition to prescription food that is ongoing. I came back to a clean, tidy home and a cat that seemed happy but not desperate to see me— always a good sign. Mia is welcome for future sits anytime!

Stephania

Stephania was a great sitter. We came home to a clean house and happy dogs! She was communicative before and during the sit and from the pics she sent throughout her stay, I could tell the dogs were enjoying themselves. Biscuit can be a little bit of a troublemaker and stephania was attentive to her and offered to take her to the vet after she snuck a chapstick as a snack.

Elizabeth Leilalani

I am pleased to recommend Elizabeth as a trusted house/petsitter. I received daily updates and photos. She pampered my cats with toys and treats. After being away for two weeks, I was greeted by 3 happy looking kitties. Elizabeth was prompt with communications before and during the assignment. She is calm, confident, and dependable. She graciously extended her stay by 3 days. I am grateful for her and past sitters for adjusting so well to seemingly little quirks and peculiarities of my home and pets. Elizabeth did a fine job.

Sharon

Sharon was great. Sent me pictures and updates. Got in and out of the house easily. House was in perfect condition when I returned. Thank you so much for taking care of my pup! Hope you reach out if you ever want to return to Philly.

Charles & Breanna

Charles and Breanna were AMAZING!! We set up a zoom chat before confirming any dates without any problems. They were able to come to the apartment before we left to show them around ( Harper loved them from the start). Once we left they went above and beyond by taking Harper on hikes and site seeing with them. We got multiple pictures/updates daily and we could tell Harper was having a great time! When we arrived back they had all dishes put away and laundry washed. We would highly recommend Charles and Breanna to take care of your animals! We wish every caretaker was as good as them!

Lori

Lori was super communicative and sent daily updates about Tillie and the apartment. Everything was super tidy when I came back and Tillie seems happy and well cared for.

Jennifer & Chris

Jennifer and Chris were amazing. They were so thoughtful and communicative. We have two cats and both were a little shy to start out. Jennifer and Chris were so sweet and patient with them. We could not have asked for better house sitters. They truly put our concerns at ease and helped us enjoy our time away. They house was perfect when we came home. I highly recommend them both.

Reem

She was very friendly, kind and well organised. It was a pleasure speaking to Reem in the lead up and during the time we were away. I would definitely recommend her.

Maia

Maia was excellent! She sent us regular photos and videos of Ernest along with other updates and just generally was so pleasant and easy to work with. She quickly figured out the little things that Ernest enjoyed and really took great care of him. Would definitely invite back!!

Sam

Sam did a great job looking after our house and cat. Everything was nice and clean when we got back and Lucky our cat was very contented and had obviously had a nice few weeks with Sam. Communication was prompt, there was an issue with a fuse in the house which Sam communicated quickly to us and we were able to help her sort it out without any delay. Thanks for a great house sit Sam!

Crystelle

My cats loved having Crystelle care for them, and so did I. She was caring, responsible, and very communicative. That was one thing I stressed, wanting regular updates on my furbabies and Crystelle delivered. Pics and videos every day, mostly of her petting them and hearing them purr. If she needed a question answered about their care, or taking care of the house, she asked. That was important to me, too. When I came home it was clear they weren’t stressed at all. I highly recommend Crystelle as a petsitter, and I would use her services again without hesitation.

Wanda & Fran

Wanda was truly amazing, could not have asked for a better sitter to look after Ruby and my home. She provided regular updates, went above and beyond for Ruby’s care and left the apartment spotless!!

Dean

What a lovely place to be with adorable cats!

Vicky and Andy

Vicky and her family were so lovely and welcoming, I was so pleased they chose us to sit for them. Unfortunately Chris couldn't come with me, but Vicky was gracious enough to host me for another night due to flight times. She is great at communicating, everything was straight forward and easy. Perky and Freddie were a dream to sit for, very well behaved and good company. Freddie in particular is so sweet and gentle, Chris would have loved him as much as I did. They have a lovely apartment right among all the city sites Edinburgh has to offer. You will be very lucky if Vicky chooses you to sit for her. Thanks for a wonderful weekend Vicky.

Jamie

Jamie was a great host and gave clear instructions on how to take care of her cats and home. The cats are lovely and playful. 

Good location too, not too far from amenities.

Ellie

Had such a lovely time here. Ellie and Damian were really hospitable and such a pleasure to meet. The cats are adorable and cuddly and super easy to care for.

Kate

Obsessed with Tank and Whisper! Tank's a chill dude who comes alive when you play, and Whisper is the sweetest cuddle bug (shoelace obsession aside!). Kate's a gem - welcoming, knowledgeable, and has a gorgeous home near beaches, a mall, and more. She even gave us great activity ideas! Would absolutely sit for them again - 10/10 recommend!

JOAN

Joan is a wonderful host; she was very responsive and helpful to all my questions. She also provided leaflets and guidebooks on what to do in Oxford. Her house is cosy, comfortable and well located with many bus services running from the town centre. Milly is a very sweet cat; at first she is shy but she is friendly after some time. It was a pleasure to take care of Milly.
