Your Pet's Happiness Is Our Business

Our Story & Inspiration

The Peaks Pet Nanny was born out of real-life necessity. Years ago, Gina found herself leaving her office in Parsippany and driving back to Lake Hopatcong during lunch breaks to walk her beloved Golden Retriever, then turning right back around to head back to work again because dependable pet care was surprisingly hard to find.

That experience inspired the creation of The Peaks Pet Nanny in 2004. Over the last 21 years, it has been carefully cultivated into a trusted family business and a team of kind and dependable fellow pet parents who genuinely love animals and enjoy helping people.

What makes our approach different is that the office is personally run by owners Gina and Patric, helping clients with scheduling, communication, and ongoing support, while many of our Pet Nannies, who have been with us for years, provide dependable and consistent care that helps pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own home.

A Personalized Approach

Because feeling comfortable with who cares for your pets matters.
We know how personal it is to welcome someone into your home and trust them with the pets you love. That’s why we take the time to get to know you, your pets, and their routines.

Close to Home
With 60+ Pet Nannies, we work within smaller local care teams in the communities they live and serve. This keeps care close to home while giving our Pet Nannies a trusted team around them when time off or backup coverage is needed.

Familiar Faces
Having a team doesn’t mean unfamiliar faces showing up at your door. Meet & Greets are an important part of how we do things, giving you and your pets a chance to meet a Pet Nanny and make sure it feels like a good fit before care begins. We want it to feel familiar and simple: a Pet Nanny you know and trust, with a caring local team behind them.

Family-Owned & Personally Coordinated
And you’re never left to figure all of that out on your own. Gina and Patric personally coordinate scheduling and Meet & Greets through our office, keeping everything organized behind the scenes.

Our Story

In 2004, when Gina couldn’t find dependable, professional care for her own dog, she built the solution herself. What began as a solo Pet Nanny has grown into a trusted, family-owned company built on reliability, true business standards, and genuine care for pets and their people.
