I left my amazing, sweet little guy in their care and he was killed. He had only been with them three times before this happened.In the past year, I have received numerous messages from previous employees of this “company,” former clients, and been contacted by animal control, letting me know about the continued recklessness and negligence of this company. If you know any animal owners in the state of New Jersey or you have your own fur babies, do not hire these people or any associated businesses to take care of your four legged loved ones. It has been one of the biggest regrets of my life. This business was not bonded and insured as advertised and tried to avoid accountability as much as possible. I would give zero stars if it were possible.

Melissa is the ABSOLUTE BEST!!!! I have a German Shepard rescue who had major anxiety issues until he met Melissa. Now he’s finally able to play with friends and enjoy life to the fullest! ? Melissa is extremely knowledgeable, professional and kind hearted. I honestly don’t know what I would do without Melissa and her team. Happy dog, happy dog mom! ? He was all smiles on his first day with Jersey Dogs too ?

Having recently become a first-time dog owner, I was SO overwhelmed with my young boxer's energy (and separation anxiety). Trying to tire her out each morning before work, with hopes she didn't ruin my apartment while gone, was growing old QUICKLY :PI stumbled upon Melissa/Jersey Dogs while I was attempting to develop a schedule for Georgia, which was diverse (e.g., not day care 5 days a week), easy for me to maintain, and equal parts tiring/fun for her! Upon reaching out to Melissa, she was quick to respond and set up a meet and greet. At our meet and greet, she asked a number of great/relevant questions and was so patient with Georgia's puppy energy. We set up Georgia's first half-day hike/play date (dog park + pack hike) for the following week.One of Melissa's walkers picked GA up while I was at work (easy lock box-type situation), and off they went. I later received photos of her playing at the dog park and subsequently, enjoying a pack hike. Upon her arrival home, the walker was kind enough to feed her (I had lunch/dinner prepped in the fridge) before leaving. GA slept the rest of the afternoon without wreaking havoc in my apartment. Bonus points that my all white boxer didn't return covered in mind, which was one of my fears.Since that first outing, Georgia has gone on a hike just about every week. I'm so excited for their summer adventures and plan to keep Melissa/Jersey Dogs in Georgia's weekly rotation :)

Melissa and team love their dogs. Reliable, trustworthy, easy and accommodating. It's obvious her team loves what they do and our pup loves them back. Highly recommend.

This team have helped us pre-pandemic and all the way through. From daily walks to beach trips, hikes, and all kinds of other adventures. Our sweet boy Dusty pins his nose to the window waiting for them. They are THE BEST. P.S. they always get the pups to pose like they're going to be on an album cover... I love it

I have been working with Jersey dogs, and in particular Melissa and Phil for almost five years. I LOVE THEM. They are so wonderful to my 12-pound, grumpy old man Chip, who is now 17 years old. My dog can be fiery and onery, but he responds well to all of the walkers. They really get animals and understand dogs. As he has aged and is now losing his sight, I know that I can count on them to take care of him and give him love and careful attention, as I would. My fur baby, well old man, is extremely important to me because unlike my child, he cannot talk to me, so knowing that I have good second parents/caretakers make all the difference when I have to work or if I have long hours and need them to back me up as doggy caregiver.

Melissa and her crew are the best! They are so patient and kind. My little (demon) lady comes home so tired that she takes hours of naps. And when she sees them she goes bananas! That definitely says alot about them. I trust my pup to them at any time.

I have been working with Jersey Dogs for over 6 years and Melissa is the absolute best! She puts her heart and soul into caring for every animal. She is extremely knowledgeable in animal behavior and training techniques. Her team is very professional yet still personal and always reliable. She offers many different services and always treats your pet as her own! She even takes pictures and videos to keep you updated on how your pet is doing! I highly recommend trusting Melissa and her team with your pet care needs!

We love Jersey dogs! We’ve been trusting Melissa and her team with our Alfie for the last 18 months and have been nothing but pleased. They are reliable, flexible, professional, safe and offer a range of activities for the pups. Alfie’s walks, hikes and play dates are the highlight of his day. He’s made lots of pup friends and is noticeably more socialized and better on the leash since his time with Jersey Dogs

Melissa and her team are incredible! I’ve been using her dog walking and pet sitting services for 3 years and it has been an absolute pleasure. I have a 5 year old pit mix who they not only love like their own but have helped train to be the good boy he is today! I especially love the addition of the hikes because it’s such great socialization and exercise for our dog. Melissa and her team really care about my dog and it shows on how well they take care of him!

Melissa from Jersey Dogs is amazing! She comes twice a week to pick my pup up for either a play date or a hike and drops him off after. When he sees her pull up, he is so excited, he runs to her and doesn’t look back! He comes home exhausted which is a win win! I always look forward to the videos and pictures I get later on that day of my pup playing with all the other dogs. Melissa takes excellent care of the animals and I have complete trust in her. I highly recommend her services!

Melissa is fantastic. Our dog is always so happy to see her. Great with puppies and dogs in need of a lot of activity. And she picks up from your home! A perfect solution for working owners.

Melissa and her team are absolutely wonderful. We found them via a local Facebook group and couldn’t be happier. They do regular walks for our two large dogs as well as playgroups and hikes. Our dogs always come back tired and happy. Melissa sends pictures and videos from every play group or hike and it’s nice to be able to see how our pups are spending their time. She’s also super responsive. We’ve had no issues working with her and the team. Highly recommend their services.
