IN-YOUR-HOME OVERNIGHT PET SITTING AND PET VISITS
We WHOLEHEARTEDLY understand your concerns of finding trustworthy and reliable pet sitters while you’re away. We are also pet owners who love traveling and had the same concerns when we needed reliable care for our own pets. This is why we do things differently at Walks Wiggles and Wags!
Certified in pet first aid and CPR, our Morris County and Sussex County pet sitters undergo a rigorous background check for your pet’s safety and your peace of mind.
For the last 7 years, hundreds of clients have trusted Walks Wiggles and Wags to provide world-class pet sitting services for their pets.
Our overnight pet sitting service is designed to offer a comforting and familiar environment for your pets while you're away. Our experienced and trustworthy pet sitters will stay in your home, anywhere from 10-12 hours per night, ensuring that your pet's routine remains intact while providing companionship throughout the night.
Before we begin services, we will schedule a complimentary meet and greet at your home. It's an opportunity for you and your pets to meet with the pet sitter in person, allowing everyone to get acquainted. During the meet and greet, we'll chat about your pet’s needs, routines, and any special requirements they might have. It's a chance for us to address any questions or concerns you may have and ensure that both you and your pets feel comfortable and happy with the arrangement.
You’ll provide us with detailed care instructions, and we promise to follow them. You’ll never have to worry if your pets are receiving the care you hoped.
“Walks Wiggles and Wags has been A+ every time we have used them. Highly recommend. We have used them to watch our dogs during vacations and or other situations. We live in Chester, NJ and what I have enjoyed most about their amazing business is their flexibility. We have called them in a pinch and they always come through! If you are in need of a pet sitter I highly recommend them!”

We are fully licensed, bonded and insured. Our pet sitters undergo a rigorous background check before being allowed into your home.

Our industry leading scheduling software keeps track of our sitters at all times. We know where they are and when they visit your home.

This is a benefit to using Walks Wiggles and Wags vs. a hobbyist pet sitter.

We customize our services to meet the needs of your pets. As a general guideline, puppies require a visit every few hours. Adult puppies require a visit 2-4 times daily. Most clients choose 2 or 3 visits, but we find that 3 visits per day is optimal. Cats require at least 1 visit per day. We do not provide every other day visits for cats.
“The Walks Wiggles and Wags team always does a phenomenal job caring for our pets. We recently used their pet sitting services for our dog and cat in Succasunna and had a great experience. The ongoing communication through their app with pictures, videos and updates always puts at ease when we are away from home. I appreciate that the team is flexible to our care requests and asks questions if needed, but especially that each visit includes not only walks and feedings- but snuggles, pets and one-on-one attention!”

“I’ve been using Walks Wiggles and Wags for about 7 years. They are an EXCELLENT alternative to boarding. No more worrying about a kennel treating your pet unkindly and making yourself feel guilty about leaving your furbaby with them. Walks Wiggles and Wags will give you peace of mind while you are away and treat your little fella like they are their own. I can go on and on about them!!! My dog (who is now senior with health issues) loves all the walkers, and they keep me informed on how he is doing with text and pictures through their app at each visit. They even went the extra mile of hand feeding him when he wouldn’t eat himself!!! Amazing!!! They follow all instructions you leave to a T.”
