Pet Sitters in Woodcliff Lake, NJ

Laura & Alex

Great as always

Paola

Paola was so wonderful and by far the best pet sitter I've ever had. She was kind, considerate, communicative, and such a thoughtful house guest. She would send me photos, videos, and updates whenever she was had any possible concerns about my cat's health or behavior. Paola left my place in sparkling condition and I was just so impressed! I couldn't recommend Paola enough as a pet and house sitter. Thank you Paola!

Sandra

Sandra was wonderful to communicate with. She asked the right questions and was fully prepared and organized to take care of our cat and our home. Highly recommend her!

Eric

Eric provided excellent care for the dogs. Sent daily pictures and updates on how the dogs were doing. Responded quickly to a last minute sit request. Communicated effectively on his flight information. Water my plants and overall a friendly guy.

Danny

As always, Danny was terrific. I appreciate that he really enjoys caring for Zelda. I highly recommend him.

sol

Sol was an excellent cat sitter for us. Very attentive to and considerate of our (and the cats’) needs, a great communicator, and willing to work through the quirks of our automatic cat box. The house was left in great shape. Definitely recommend!

Lara & Andrei

This was my first time using an overnight pet sitter and I couldn't have asked a better couple than Lara and Andrei. They are both so kind and sweet, and immediately bonded with my two cats on arrival- speaking with them softly, getting down to their level, letting them sniff and get comfortable. Aster in particular is very shy but came right up to them, and was sitting on their laps within a day. They seem to have genuine joy in being with and caring for animals. They were really easy to work with in setting up logistic- very flexible and willing to come on an early morning train so I could get them acquainted before I left. They were very communicative during their stay, with lots of photos of the kitties having so much fun! The place was absolutely immaculate upon my return- such a pleasant surprise. Thank you Lara and Andrei for being such wonderful people and taking great care of my kitties!

Diana

We are so glad that we met Diana! From our initial zoom meeting we knew that our dog Tobie and cat Bean would be in great hands with her. We returned from a two week overseas trip to a sparkling clean house and happy and healthy pets. We were truly at ease during our trip and were really grateful for her attentiveness to the needs of our pets and for keeping our home in such great shape. We would be delighted to have Diana sit for us again and would highly recommend her to any pet parent.

Antonia

Antonia and Leo are the best-case-scenario zeewoi. In addition to listening carefully, and reading our instructions, they clearly had a great time with our dogs. They enjoyed our home and left it as friends would. They were communicative and accessible throughout the stay, There were absolutely no hitches to this stay. We would have them back anytime.

Pascale

We recently had Pascale stay at our home for four nights to take care of our pup, Denali. From the outset, Pascale was kind and it was evident that she genuinely cares for animals, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. However, there were a few challenges during her stay that prevent us from giving a full five-star rating. Firstly, we had some communication issues before the start of her stay regarding arrival and departure times. Despite originally saying she could take Denali out before heading to evening events on her arrival day, she later told us that she could no longer do so at the last minute. Pascale also informed us of a departure change right before we left, which left us scrambling to make alternative arrangements on short notice. Second, she lost our house keys during her time with us, necessitating getting her access to another set (fortunately, the lost set got turned into our super). Third, there was an instance where Denali was left alone for over 10 hours, despite a previous explicit discussion about the appropriate length of time away from Denali, where we had indicated 8 hours was the limit to ensure no accidents. While Pascale’s kindness and love for Denali are commendable, these issues highlighted some areas where communication and reliability could be improved. We appreciate her efforts and care for our dog, but future pet owners might want to discuss these aspects to ensure a smooth experience for everyone involved.

Patricia

Patricia (and her son) were wonderful sitters for Odis. Patricia was very communicative about her timing and availability, and very flexible to meet our travel schedule (including arriving very early before our flight to be able to meet our anxious dog before we left!). It was clear that Odis was very comfortable with her from the start and she had no issues with taking care of a big dog. She asked all the right questions and made sure she was prepared. She sent notes about very 24 hours to check in and let us know all was well, which we appreciated. Patricia left our home spotless as well. We’d love to have Patricia back in the future.

Ethan

Ethan. Did a fantastic job looking after Thor and Lissy while we were away. He regularly gave updates as well. He also kept the house tidy and watered our plants. It was a real pleasure meeting him before hand and we knew the buns would be in safe hands. We would recommend him to anyone needing a sitter

Amy

Lovely people and pets!

Darcy

Darcy’s home is so cozy and comfortable, and right in the center of everything you would want to do in Austin. Just south of downtown and near parks, restaurants, etc. totally walkable - it feels like you are in a nature retreat. Baci is a super friendly and easy kitty to take care of - we were friends right away. Sitting for Darcy was a fantastic house sitting experience and I highly recommend!!

Maeve & Virgilio

G&G were such great companions. The perfect blend of energetic playfulness and chill cuddlers.  M&V were incredibly welcoming and their home is beautiful, cozy and funky.  The dog park and playground are conveniently close, and we enjoyed checking out their neighbourhood shops and social hubs. Would return in a heartbeat.

Jess

Thanks so much for the opportunity to take care of Bizzy, Nomar and Sprinkles. Bizzy is a sweet loving Dog and the birds were easy and entertaining.
West Seattle and your place were great. The only negative was bad weather. Not something you have control over.
Again thanks and take care

Sophie

I had a great time with Pixelle, a lovely, sensitive cat who loves attention and TLC. Sophie's place is filled with light, beautifully decorated and very quiet. This was perfect as a writing retreat! Furthermore, with the metro station and stores nearby, the location is very convenient. I highly recommend this cat sit.

Eleonora

This Brighton sit was brilliant. Our hosts were super organised and Cleo the cat was a delight and no trouble at all. It was so nice to be able to help out with this lovely family so that they could enjoy a stress free holiday.
Brighton, of course, has lots to offer the visitor, whether in town or beautiful South Downs. Otherwise, their lovely home offers every comfort.
