“From the moment I met Josie I knew my dogs would be in great hands. Love her calm demeanor and both the dogs and I felt completely at ease with her. Her updates were timely and thorough and she took great care with my house!”

About: My life has been surrounded by animals. Rest assured I’ll make sure to attend to your pets needs and provide any special accommodations. I'm great at communicating how your pet is doing during their stay or after my interactions with them. I am a student attending Stockton. I live in Northfield and also spend time in the summer in Wildwood Crest. My family also enjoys opening our home to care for your beloved pets. I have a large fenced in yard in order to allow your pet to exercise and roam freely. I am also available to provide services in your home as well. My home is pet friendly.


3. Marlena H.

“Marlena was awesome! She took care of my pup like he was her own. Not only was she accommodating on such short notice she took the time out to provide updates throughout the day. Marlena sent pics of walks and activities they did, which really meant alot. It's good to know that my pup was well taken care of and if you're lucky enough to book Marlena, just know that your fur baby is in very good hands. Excellent job!!”

7. Katee E.
About: Hi my name is Katee. I love animals and I’ve owned dogs on and off my entire life so I’m very experienced in their care. I’ve dealt with dogs of all different breeds, ages and sizes. I’d be happy to help you out whether you’re on vacation or just need help while you are at work. I’m available Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday mornings and afternoons. If you need any help at other times I can work hard to accommodate you. I can also house sit for houses with other animals such as cats or birds if needed. I’m available for walks rain or shine so don’t hesitate to book. I can’t wait to meet you and your dog! I hope to hear from you soon! I have mostly flexible hours during the week as right now I only have prior commitments on Tuesday and Thursday from 12:00-4:30. Any other time I am happy to accommodate you and your furry friend! The most important part of pet sitting is to make sure your pet is safe and comfortable. My goal is to minimize disruption to their usual life and routine and keep your pet happy and healthy.

10. Robert Z.
“Bobby is a friend of mine, his dog Nash (Goldendoodle) and my dog Maggie (AmStaf) are best friends and walk/play together on the beach a few days a week. This is at least the second dog that the Zuzolock's have had since I've known the family. Bobby is a great dog owner, Nash is a loved family member. I have also watched Nash at my home when there was a family emergency. Bobby has also watched my dog on several occasions. Boby is a great dog dad, and his dog Nash lives a pampered life. I also fully trust him to watch Maggie. Nash is also incredibly dog friendly, making it easy for Bobby to include other dogs in out routine.”


11. Katie P.

“Katie connected really well with our skittish little pup Gigi when she took care of her and Presley overnight on short notice. Katie is personable, trustworthy, and all around down to earth and the kind of person you can trust to take care of your home and fur babies. Thanks Katie! We look forward to seeing you again in the future.”


12. Bridget F.
“Bridget is the best cat sitter I have ever had. I’ve used her services multiple times now for various length trips. Every time it has been amazing!

16. Mary U.
“Mary was a fantastic sitter. We have two very energetic retrievers and they were happy and calm when we got home, so I know they had plenty of playtime. Also, our house actually looked just like it had when we left. I appreciate the care Mary took of our dogs and our home. Definitely recommend”


17. Kaylee P.

18. Gabrielle W.
“Gabrielle has watched my dog sparky on numerous occasions and I’ve never had any issues. Sparky is very particular dog and can be a lot to handle, but she’s always been able to manage him. Even when I go out of town, she is able to keep him overnights and on the weekends without issue.”


19. Catherine D.

“Catherine was very responsive and helpful with our puppy, Azul! She made Azul feel very comfortable and safe - Azul was playing and sleeping shortly after she arrived - which she shared with us via photo and video. She kept us updated throughout the day, took Azul out for walks and kept her happy with treats! This was our first time leaving Azul alone with someone and especially someone that she wasn't familiar with so we were concerned that she wouldn't handle it very well. Catherine did everything to make her comfortable! Catherine stayed at our apartment and was very punctual and respectful. I would definitely recommend her to others to take care of their pet, she was great! Thank you Catherine!”


20. Lucy H.
“Lucy is a very responsible person with a great attitude! She is a hard worker and pays close attention to detail. Not only does she have a kind demeanor towards people, she also goes above and beyond when it comes to animals. She has a lot of animal experience from having pets of her own and also volunteering at a local zoo. I always trust her with my animals!”
