Why I Started NewJerseyPetSitters.com

Hi, I’m Heather👋 A lifelong pet lover and proud New Jerseyan. Over the years, I noticed how stressful it can be for pet parents to find a reliable sitter or walker they can truly trust. At the same time, I met so many amazing pet professionals who struggled to get their name out there without paying hefty fees to be listed on big national sites.

That’s why I started NJPetSitters.com…to create a free, local-first directory that makes life easier for both sides. Pet parents get peace of mind knowing they can find trustworthy local care, and pet professionals get a platform that supports them instead of charging them.

This project is more than a website to me! It’s about building a community where pets are cared for, parents feel confident, and professionals thrive.
