About: From Kennels to Cuddles—I’ve Done It All! 🐾 Hi, I’m Nyaa! I’ve worked as a kennel tech and spent years doing private pet sitting, so whether your pup loves fetch or belly rubs, I’ve got it covered. I know how to handle all kinds of furry personalities with patience, play, and plenty of love. Think of me as your dog’s new favorite human! Also i’m very good with senior and disabled care !! Available mornings to early evenings for walks, potty breaks, feedings, cuddles, playtime, and updates—your pet’s daily routine stays fun, safe, and stress-free with me, and for you I provide safe, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs—whether in my home or yours. I follow feeding, walk, and play routines closely, offer plenty of affection, and keep their environment clean and comfortable. I also send regular updates so you always know your furry friend is happy and well cared for.

About: I started caring for dogs and cats when I was 8 years old, watching my neighbors pets when they were away. My college degree in Animal Science taught me the background information needed to care for medically complex animals, such as dogs with diabetes or cats with FeLV or FIV. I have experience administering injections, giving pills, wound care, and other medical treatment. If you’re looking for an experienced pet sitter to care for your beloved friend, look no further! I work remotely and can spend as much time with your pet as you need. On the weekends I have even more flexibility! Any time you need someone to take care of your pet, I’ll be available. I take safety very seriously and take precautions to ensure the safety of your pet and my own safety. When I first meet your pet, I introduce myself very slowly and pay close attention to body language. When pet sitting in someone else’s home, I always double check locks while entering the home and leaving to ensure that no strangers can enter and no pets can get out.

About: I’m a certified animal lover with a fur baby of my own (Henry, 9lb of quiet sweetness) that I’ve been caring for over 10 years. I own a wedding photography business that allows me to work from home 90% of my year. If I am booked on a specific day during your booking, I will let you know ahead of time so you can approve or deny the amount of hours I will be gone for that day (which can be anywhere from a 1-hour session to a full 10-hour wedding). I have experience as a dog owner, but have also spent many of my years dog and cat sitting for my friends and family. I raised and trained my parents puppy, a Bichon Frise Shih Tzu mix who needed lots of care to control his barking and playful nature, now 6 years old and so loving. I’m experience with a range of ages and needs, including puppies and elder animals with special care needs. I love dogs, as you can tell, and have all the time in the world to watch and play with them! I prefer dogs and cats have been handled and are used to being cared for, with no history of lashing out or biting. Whether you need me to cuddle, feed, brush, walk, or play with your pup, I'm your gal. Note: while I take a combo of meds for my dander allergy and have a high tolerance, I ask that any animals/homes with animals with high shedding be appropriately groomed and cleaned before sitting. If I stay in your home, a vacuuming or light cleaning does wonders. If your fur baby is boarded in my home, a bath or deshedding session beforehand is much appreciated. I work from home, so pet care can be a day round activity for me. If I am sitting in your home or doing check ins, I can stay or come by as frequently as needed, given availability based on any events or sessions I have previously booked. I will always communicate with pet parents about the needs for their specific fur baby. I understand all needs are unique, so aside from common sense (walks, feedings, playing), I’ll make sure to tailor their care as needed.

About: Being a lover of all animals and pets, I’ve had the pleasure of being a dog and rabbit owner. From walking friends’ dogs to falling in love with every dog I meet around town, I will make sure your fur babies are treated like the princes and princesses they truly are. No request is too big! Super flexible schedule working as a free lance entrepreneur part time. I am currently available for walks and dog sitting every weekday, and weekends if needed. I know that each pet has their own unique needs and quirks, so no matter what your pet needs are, I will do my best to be thorough and attentive. Having a medical background, I have no issues with giving medication if needed as long as you provide me specific instructions or your fur baby’s preferences.

About: What sets me apart is my dependable, calm approach to pet care. I know how important it is for owners to feel worry free while they are away, so I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and loved. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages from playful puppies who need patience and guidance to senior dogs who require extra gentleness and attention. I am reliable, detail oriented, and treat every pet like they are my own family. Whether it is walks, feedings, medication, or just some quality cuddle time, you can count on me to provide consistent, loving care that keeps tails wagging and owners at ease. I am newly retired and often care for my grand-pups, Chester and Delaney. With a flexible schedule, I’m able to give pets plenty of time, attention, and love When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to keep their routines consistent so they feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. I follow feeding schedules, provide walks, playtime, and companionship, and always give plenty of attention and care. I also have experience administering medication, including insulin shots, as one of my grand-pups had diabetes. My goal is to provide worry free care that keeps pets happy and owners at ease.

“April was so amazing dog sitting Dusty. She was kind and very helpful, considering Dusty is an older puppy with some ailments and medication needs. She took great care of Dusty and he loved being with April. I would recommend her to anyone!”



“We had a great experience with Sheryl! She took great care of our dog Walter and our cat Esther. She kept us updated with photos and messages. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and reliable sitter for their pets! Thank you again for taking such great care of our fur babies!”


“Jennifer was an absolute delight. Very personable and took such great care of my puppy. She shared great tips and asked me wonderful questions to make sure the experience was good.”


“Brandon was amazing! He came over to meet Bella before the potential sit to make sure they were a good fit. During the stay, he kept everything tidy and sent daily updates. Bella was a very happy girl for the weekend. Highly recommend!!”


“Outstanding care for two special‑needs cats, last‑minute booking, and stellar communication! Skye did a truly fantastic job watching my two cats, both of whom need extra care. One is blind, and the other is diabetic and receives twice‑daily subcutaneous injections, and Skye administered medications exactly on schedule. From the start, Skye was incredibly kind, flexible, and professional—especially given how last‑minute the booking was due to an emergency. I received regular updates, which were so reassuring. I appreciated knowing that medications were given on time, feeding routines were followed, and my cats were comfortable and safe. The initial meet-and-greet was warm and professional, which immediately put me at ease. Skye’s attention to our cats’ special needs was exactly what we were hoping for in a sitter. Thank you so much, Skye — your flexibility, compassion, and reliability are deeply appreciated. I would absolutely book again and highly recommend your care to anyone who has pets with medical or unique needs”

“Folks, I can't recommend Heather more if I tried! She was phenomenally responsive, caring, and super diligent about each and every detail. I had major surgery, so working with Heather was one big area I didn't have to think twice about. The cats LOVED her. I could tell because when I came home they didn't even look at me twice. ;-)”

Being around their whimsical, curious, playful manner just makes me smile. I like to keep active and love being outdoors in nature. I offer weekday morning and afternoon walks in the Asbury Park and Allenhurst area, perfect for pups who need some exercise, fresh air, or just a mid-day break while you are at work.

About: I grew up with a Shih Tzu and helped take of her. My sister has another Shih Tzu now that I dogsit often. Absolutely love small dogs and can give them all the love and attention they need. I work full-time, but I work from home 2 days a week. I live and work in Asbury, so if I dogsit in town I can easily go during lunch breaks to take the dog out. Otherwise, when I know I am dogsitting I will make sure to not make other plans so that my full presence can be with the dog. I would learn the norms of the home and what the dog needs to feel comfortable and safe by having a thorough conversation and observing the dog in their habitat. I will do my best to respect the dog and their parents’ environment.

“Excellent sitter, she updated us consistently throughout our trip and when we got home there was a detailed note listing every interaction and walk!! She stayed overnight at our home and I am very comfortable letting her do so again!”

She kept us updated the whole stay which made me feel more comfortable as we're more attached to Scout than he is to us haha!

April was awesome. She replied quickly, arrived on time for our meet and greet, was extremely attentive to both dogs, and didnt mind dog hair :) I felt confident having April watch both dogs. Its hard enough having a stranger in your house, let alone taking care of your fur babies, but she provided care and was kind and compassionate. I would definitely use April again in the future.

Katherine was so good with Frank the doxie! And he liked her immediately. I then, could leave and travel with ease. Also, I made a request kinda late since my other sitter backed out. I’m recommending Katherine while lol hoping you all keep in mind, I definitely want to have Katherine come stay with Frank again!

Claudia is a rockstar! My dog is pretty high maintenance when it comes to walks, as she’s reactive on the leash. But Claudia handled her very well, and made me feel much more at ease while I was away. If you need a wonderful dog sitter, Claudia is your girl! 🙌

Wow! What a wonderful experience we all had with Cori and Katia caring for our little Havanese Zuzu. This was the first time that we ever left Zuzu with anyone and we could not have been more satisfied. We were completely relaxed going to spend time with family. We even feel that Zuzu received so much positive care that she, being a 10 month old puppy became even more trained and grounded. We even feel we have new friends. We would always choose them when we need care. The photos they sent were beautiful and Zuzu looked so happy being taken out and about many times a day.

Raquel is the "whole package" - a dog whisperer who's caring, loving, and doting with your pet, and a professional who's responsible, responsive, and respectful of your home. Raquel looked after our very senior rescue dog in our house. We had complete peace of mind while away, thanks to Raquel's many text updates, photos and videos. We knew our pup was Raquel's priority and would receive constant love and attention. We returned home to find a happy doggie - as well as a swept, wiped, and straightened-up kitchen and family room. We hope Raquel house and pupsits for us again and highly recommend her services!

Melissa was wonderful with our babies! Our dog Ruger has terrible separation anxiety. She was so sweet and patient with him, it made us feel so much more relaxed knowing we left him in good hands. It also helps that's she's an awesome communicator, keeping us up to date on how our little ones were doing while we were away from them. We loved working with her. I definitely will be booking her again for our fur babies.

I couldn’t be more pleased with the care my dogs received from Selis. She truly went above and beyond, keeping me updated daily on how they were adjusting. Before I left, she made sure to get acquainted with my dogs, ensuring a smooth transition. She was very responsive to any questions I had, and she took excellent care of my home. I highly recommend her and will definitely be using her services again!

Taylor was incredible and I cannot recommend her enough. Along with her husband they have a dog of their own so they know the ins and outs of pet sitting and my girlfriend and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable leaving our Chihuahua with them. Highly responsive and the nicest couple. Definitely would book Taylor again in the future if we ever find ourselves back in Asbury Park!

Emily is fantastic! We had never had someone we didnt know care for our pet, let alone stay in our home. But after our 'meet and greet' with Emily, we immediately felt at ease. She was very attentive to our dog and his needs/wants....and she took great care in our home. She was very communicative, sending us status updates and pictures each day. We would recommend her without hesitation and will definitely use her again.
