Dedicated to the Care, Safety, and Happiness of Rockland’s Pets.

Professionalism meets Passion

At Paw Pals, we believe pet care is more than just a service—it’s a commitment to family. Serving Rockland County and select areas of Bergen County, we’ve built a professional team of animal lovers who are fully licensed, insured, and bonded.

Unlike apps that rely on independent contractors, every Paw Pal is a dedicated employee. Our team members are hand-picked through a rigorous screening process and complete weeks of intensive, in-house training. From mastering leash safety to decoding canine body language, we ensure your pets are in the most capable hands. For added peace of mind, many of our staff members are also certified in Pet CPR and First Aid.

We leverage industry-leading technology to keep you connected to your pet’s day. Through our easy-to-use app, you can schedule visits, handle payments, and communicate directly with your sitter. After every visit, you’ll receive a 'Pawtastic' report card complete with photos and updates, so you never miss a moment. With GPS-tracked visits, you can rest easy knowing your fur-family is receiving the consistent, high-quality care they deserve.
