Istenes said she doesn't own any bovine, but volunteered to keep the calf in her yard while the workers knocked on neighbor's doors trying to find the animal's owner.
She posted photos of the animal to local lost pets groups, but no owner came forward.
The calf was picked up later in the day by Department of Agriculture personnel, who took it to the First State Animal Center in Camden.
A department spokeswoman said the calf, nicknamed Wilbert by Istenes, will be put up for adoption if 10 days pass without an owner coming forward.
