Pet Sitter in Cranford, New Jersey

Hello my name is Anna. I am a Cranford based pet sitter that can't wait to meet your pet family! Please contact me with any questions about how I can help you and your pets out! I am available for pet walks, play time, feedings, sleepovers, vet visits or anything your pet needs. I know what it’s like to be stuck and if I can help I will. I have always enjoyed and connected with animals! I had so many pets over the years, including squirrels, mice, rabbits, lizards, bearded dragons, parakeets, finches, hamsters, cats, and dogs. In my teens I volunteered at the Mountainside Trailside museum where I took care of the tarantulas, frogs and reptiles. In my 20s I worked at the Watchung Stables and loved every day I got to clean stalls, groom, feed and care for all the beautiful horses! My husband, 4 children and I have fostered a few dogs including 2 Great Danes. We have also had many dogs found by the Cranford PD stay with us until their owners called in looking for their lost dog. We currently have 2 babies that we’ve adopted; our Capt. Jack, a 10 year old Jack Russell Chihuahua and Peaches our 8 year old Tortoise Shell Cat! ampietrucha at yahoo ******* I thought this site would be a great idea to help me help people out with their animals. This site is awful! I can’t reach anyone. All their site wants me to do sign up for premium services! They don’t allow me to connect with anyone :( There was a job for taking care of a sweet dog in someone’s home for $15 an hour. I went to apply the job because it’s in my area. Filled out an entire profile put my phone number put my email address went to send a message to respond to the job and instantly it says we’re not sending any of your message your information until you upgrade your account. $29 a month $109 per year to walk a dog.? ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!? They won’t even let anyone contact me unless I pay their fees. So I wasted my time filling out a profile as well. Now they email me constantly with all these jobs in my area and when I go to respond there’s nothing there. Also shows that I’ve had one visit to my pet sitter page but I get emails every day stating that someone is looking to hire me and I better pay to upgrade so I can get in touch with them. Why is there only one visit on my page if 20 people tried to contact me??? Give me a break! This company is a scam to get your money for an occasional dog or cat sitting job that might come available once a year. The money I might’ve made from that job that might’ve happened would be spent on signing up for their website for $109 plus per year! I can not spend that much money per year to maybe get a job walking a dog! Taking $ and preying on hardworking people trying to make a living or kids trying to get to college! Word-of-mouth will work better or print up fliers and put them around town or in mailboxes. Why would I pay that much money per month when I am taking jobs walking dogs for $10/hr.! I wonder how much money they ripped people off to date? Save your money and do not sign up for this site or their sister companies, sitter.com, petsitter.com, etc. When people catch on that their site is a rip-off, they come up with another name and another site to get people to post on their crappy sites to get more money from hardworking people trying to make a living or kids trying to get to college! Here are all of their sites: PetSitter..... is a Part of the CareGuide Family CanadianNanny..... Sitter..... Housekeeper..... PetSitter..... ElderCare..... HouseSitter..... ChildCareAdvantage..... Nanny Lane Also as far as safety using these sites, I spelled out my email address in my ad to avoid paying to get a message and I got a response from someone that asked for my name, address, date of birth, Social Security number, and telephone number stating that it was so he could pay me when I started walking his dog. I didn’t even contact him yet or agreed to do it so why ask for that info? I don’t think these pay for sites eliminate the stranger danger! Anna Marie
