I have a couple of friends that have tried Fetch Pet Care in the past and they were all happy and satisfied. They operate in JC and surrounding areas. Not sure about who to contact, but they have a site: Fetch Pet Care. The one friend had them stay over while on vacation, while the other hired them for daily walks.

I am a dog walker so i know pretty much every dog walker in the area.
gangster : you are taking about Vanessa and Liz Freedman. (petpetrol) one of them(can't tell who) has gone on to do some other things but they still walk dogs and they look pretty whist doing it too. Amongst the other dogwalkers, from what i see, MaryAnn is an excellent dogwaker. pm me for contact details.

For another optioin, I have a friend who has a dog walking/pet sitting business. She will even stay at your house with your pet while you are away if that's what you prefer.

You may want to reach out to ninasdogwalk -- she's also a member of JCList.com.
I just checked out her website for you, NinasDogWalk.com. Besides the really groovy illustration on her site's homepage, it lists her rates, e-mail address, phone number, customer reviews and all kinds of other helpful stuff. Also, she has a Special Offer page where she offers first-time customers one free 30-minute walk and she provides discounts for customers who need more than more walk per week. I am not a dog owner myself and I only know ninasdogwalk from her upbeat posts on JCList.com, but I hope this helps you out!

We've been using Doggies' Playmate for two years now and they are great! John and his staff are some of the most responsible professionals in any industry.

I have a small pet-sitting service in the Old Bergen/Greenville/West Side/Journal Square/West Side areas , I drive so it's not too bad for me, I know you have a lot of sitters in the downtown area... I do have some clients in Portside tho.... and I know there is a shortage of sitters in my area. So if anyone is interested I have GREAT references... altho I DONT do afternoon walks on the weekdays... I have another job.. I do early morning, evening, late night, and weekends all day, and always around on holidays.
I have experience with Chinchillas, dogs, cats, fish, horses, chickens ( I know not so much in JC) I was raised on a farm. Trot N' Squat Petsitting sarahop1@yahoo.com

We use Dog Gone Bizzy, they walk a lot of the dogs in our building as well as check in on the kitties while people are away. They even keep a daily diary for you while you're gone. We're big fans:

I highly recommend 'A Wheelie Good Pet Care Service' ... my two cats (even the so so shy one) love Linda. Even if I'm gone for a week or more, when I return home my guys are not stressed or freaked out ... just happy to see me.
She comes over to my apartment once or twice a day & feeds them, cleans the litter box, etc., but more importantly (to me) really plays with them. She is a gem. Also, cats tend to be happier when they stay in their own environment. I trust Linda so much that she keeps a set of my keys. Here's her contact info: (201) 892-8463 E-Mail:awheeliegoodpetcareservice@yahoo.com - Saradove

Great! I'm sure that the actual place won't be as nice as they show on the video, but just looking at the video, it does look like a pretty good place.
Thanks! Atsushi

Hi,
Does anyone know a good pet sitter or pet hotel for cats in the area? It doesn't necessarily have to be in Jersey City, but I prefer a place on this side of the Hudson River. Would a dog walker be willing to come to my apartment and feed my cat in my absence for a week? I have found a co-worker who is willing to take care of my cat, but I would like to have contingency plans). Thanks in advance. Atsushi

If you are interested in a kennel, check out Boca's Play-n-Stay on Forrest Ave off Pacific. The only hitch is that they need to meet the dog beforehand just to check temperment, etc. And the dog needs to be up to date on all shots. I have a pretty high maintenance dog and she does really well there. The staff is great and they have lots of loyal customers. If you are without a car, they have a pick up/drop off service. Also, I know they book up fairly quickly for the holidays so if you are interested, you may want to call soon. Good luck! (it just occured to me that your pet might be a cat...or a ferret or a lizard or a hamster...in which case I have no recommendations. )

To be fair, I used to work at boca's, but knowing that, I would still recommend them as a pet sitting service. They can come to your house, or you can leave your dogs with them for the weekend, either way the people who will be taking care of your dogs care greatly about the animals and will give them plenty of care and attention.

Yep - I second Boca's. Alternatives are Petsmart in Secaucus, and North Bergen Animal Hospital 9018 Kennedy Blvd. North Bergen, NJ.
Make sure you get all your dog's shots updated at least 4 days before boarding them. No place will take them without updated shots, including Bordatella.

I know others have had mixed experiences but we (both humans and doggies) love Boca's Play n Stay (www.bocasplaynstay.com). I judge a place by our dogs' reactions when we pull up to it and I can tell you that our dogs know the route there and start getting excited 1/2 mile away. They pull on their leashes all the way inside and don't look back when we leave. They have both indoor and outdoor play areas now which is great with the nice weather.
