“Kristin very quickly became a new best friend of our recent 8yr old rescue, Poppy. She keeps is reliable and assisting us with potty training going out and ringing the bell. Poppy is excited to see Kristin and let's Kristin know wheat she needs. Today, 6/9, Poppy wanted to walk longer and Kristin accommodated it. We are happy to have Kristin as an extension to our family and appreciate all she does.”



“Laurie is AWESOME! She went above and beyond to provide excellent care to my two rabbits and four finches. Her great communication and wonderful photos really put me at ease. Laurie tended to eat pet with love and care, and was beyond accommodating and helpful. I just can’t say enough nice things, and I would most definitely, joyfully, and without hesitation book Laurie’s services again!”


“Kathy and John went above and beyond for our boy! We’ve never had a sitter before and were very apprehensive but John and Kathy’s quick response, updated, and overwhelming love made it so much easier! We loved them so much we double booked. Thank you guys again, we will see you soon!”


“Erin was great with our kitty! She was super sweet and caring to him while we were away. I felt comfortable knowing she was coming to care for him. Definitely recommend!?”


“Super appreciate Regina dropping in to take care of our dog Mouse. She was great at communication, happily set up a meeting ahead of the visit and was prompt and attentive to everything during the drop in. Would book again!”


“Jessica did a wonderful job taking care of our little old lady! She was prompt, thorough, and communicative. We hope she’ll be available when Ethel needs drop-ins in the future!”


“I can’t express how happy I was with the service and care Michelle gave my three kitties! I loved the daily updates and pics and can tell she really loves all animals and takes great care in what she does to ensure your pets are cared for as promised! I will definitely use her again!”


About: I am an animal lover and long time dog owner. I am currently living in an apartment which does not allow pets. I understand the anxiety that comes with leaving your fur baby behind while traveling or for a long day at work or play. I would like to provide for you the peace of mind required to relax and know your pet is under the very best care. My work schedule is very flexible. I am available most days, evenings and overnighters if need be. My weekends are also open for scheduling purposes. I am unable to care for pets at my apartment but I am more than happy to care for your pets in their own environment in your home. Your pet will remain comfortable and confident in your absence because they will continue to have their comforts of home.


“Sheryl was amazing with our girls. They love her. She arrived 2 times each day as planned and took care of our girls as if they were her own. I would definitely recommend her and we will use her again when needed.”


About: I grew up with dogs. A dog, sometimes two or three, was always in our house and a part of my family. I’ve been around dogs of all ages, sizes and breeds, understanding each one is unique and needs certain care. I have helped train a chocolate lab (a very energetic boy named Brody) from a puppy. I understand dogs are a part of your family and will provide that love and care towards them. I care for my two cats, Avy and Moose along with my partner. Since we share responsibilities of our cats and my 9-5 job is remote I am able to schedule sits and walks regularly. My girlfriend and I currently have two cats who are a part of our everyday lives. They like to wake us up and sun bath by the windows. We love them

About: Hi! My name is Carly (: I am a 27 year old with a deep love for animals! When I was younger I was a part of the 4H club near home, which is a national club that supports the welfare of all animals through donations and events. I have owned 7 dogs, 3 cats, 2 rabbits and a hamster throughout my life and have been providing care to all animals for many years now. I am a nature lover, and I appreciate all pets of all kinds. I am looking to help those in need, and enjoy spending time with any animals I can. I am a teacher during the school year, free on the weekends and have open availability during the summer! (: I am a teacher, so over the summer months I have open availability! But during the school year I am available for overnights on the weekends, and anytime after 3pm on weekdays for drop ins, walks, feedings, ect, and anytime on the weekends! I have experience with crate training, leash training, feeding/treats, administering medication, working with special needs pets, walking multiple dogs at once, and nervous pets. I promise to always provide a gentle, yet confident environment for you and your pet/s. I understand that our pets are family members and deserve to be treated with love and respect, as well as lots of head scratches. (: I have a dog named Willow at home. Willow absolutely adores other dogs and loves having them over for doggy day cares!

About: Animals are such an extension of family and should be treated as such. I've had dogs and other animals through the years and provided general care & SO much love. I'm open to special needs animals whether medications or other, I'll learn anything to help care for an animal. I'd spend all my time with animals if I could but my availability is primarily Tuesday Wednesday & Thursday. I work in emergency services which can make other days questionable due to my schedule being able to change last minute, though I am flexible and will work with my clients the best .. just ask! I have worked in a doggy daycare so I have experience with several breeds and situations. How you want your pet cared for is how I will care for them. I'm an "animal spoiler" they deserve to be spoiled since all they do is LOVE us, it's the least we can do. There is no shortage of love and attentiveness with animals when it comes to me.


“Cristy took amazing care of our dog while we were away on vacation for a week. She was super responsive any time I messaged her and flexible when we had to make a couple last minute changes to our booking request. She included a detailed note and pictures with every visit, which was so comforting to see our little guy enjoying her visits. We were super happy with her services and plan to use her again in the future!”


About: I have always owned dogs and currently have 2 large breeds that we bring camping. I can handle big and small dogs. I was also a teacher for 30 years so I have patience. I am retired and love to walk so I am available anytime. I also love to play with dogs so I can throw the toys and get them the exercise they need. I have a fenced yard and 2 very friendly dogs. My yard is also separated so I have artificial turf in one area for my dogs and then I have a grass area as well. My stairs are gated.


“Anna was wonderful with our two labradoodles. The two dogs instantly liked Anna. She also did an amazing job with our aging doodle who needs a lot of TLC. Would highly recommend Anna for your dog needs!”


About: A life-long dog owner, I’ve been taking care of dogs all sizes and ages since I was 13 years old. I pride myself in being reliable and extremely engaging with animals. I communicate with each client to determine their pet care needs and strive to create a stress-free experience for everyone! I currently work full-time from 8:30 am - 5 pm in Asbury Park. I am available before work from 6 am to 8 am, or anytime after work. I am also available on weekends! I live in a small apartment three blocks from the beach with my French Bulldog, Bean! My street is very safe and offers a great ambiance for walks. I’m happy to offer my cozy space for daycare or sleepovers, but I can only accommodate one other medium/large dog or two small dogs. If your dog is crate-trained, please plan on bringing it!

About: I am an approved veterinary assistant by NAVTA (National Association of Veterinary Technicians in America). Throughout the past year I have learned about all different types of animals and their behaviors through both didactic learning and hands on rotating clinical experience. My rotations include animal husbandry, surgery, oncology, physical therapy, recovery, radiology, ultrasound, and so much more. I am an aspiring veterinarian and currently an undergrad majoring in biology. I am currently working part time which gives me plenty of time to spend with your pups! Either long or short walks I am willing to help out in any way I can. Your trust in me is my number one priority! I know how much love and care you have for your pets and I feel the same way. I respect and understand how much these animals mean to a family which is why my dream is to help them.

About: Hi! I recently took a short break from Rover while undergoing treatment for breast cancer—I’m doing great now and really looking forward to getting back to what I love: spending time with animals! I’ve been caring for pets since my early teens and have experience with animals of all shapes and sizes. One of the most memorable chapters of my life was working on a TV show filmed at an animal sanctuary, where I helped care for a crew of 99 animals—everything from dogs and cats to kangaroos and lemurs. Over the years, I’ve also volunteered at shelters and fostered both dogs and cats, gaining hands-on experience with animals of all ages, energy levels, and special needs. Whether it’s an energetic puppy, a shy senior, or anything in between, I’m comfortable providing gentle, attentive care. I am completely flexible! Even on holidays! Currently on leave from my film industry career, I have the freedom to dedicate ample time and attention to your lil buddies. I'm currently responsible for the well-being of a diverse fur family, which includes one dog and two kitties. Meticulously, I manage their feeding and bathroom schedules, keeping track of their unique dietary needs and allergies, ensuring that they never get the wrong meal. Beyond the basics, I offer hours of stimulating walks, playtime, and cozy cuddles. However, I always remember that when it comes to your pets, the pet parents are the ultimate bosses. Your instructions and preferences guide my care, ensuring that your furry companions receive the love and attention they deserve.

Melissa E.
“I can honestly say that not even the Irwin family loves dogs as much as Melissa does. I have known her for over 11 years and every animal she has taken in has been given the best life, the most love, and they get her undivided attention when she is not working with me. She is attentive and caring. She is never late. I could not think of a better person to be a dog walker.”
