“I can't recommend Victoria highly enough! From the very beginning, she was reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring. It was clear that my dog was treated like family, and I received regular updates and photos that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She went above and beyond to make sure my dog's routine was maintained and that all of their needs were met. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable to care for your pet, I would absolutely recommend Victoria. I'll definitely be booking with her again!”
About: Animal care in varying forms is what I do full time. I am available for boarding and sitting both weekdays and weekends, as you need. I have a large, warm home to offer to make your pet feel safe and at home. I can also fit right into your home, smoothly taking care of your pet in their own setting.
About: I’ve had many dogs growing up. 3 Shih Tzus, 1 German Shepherd, and an Australian Shepherd. I used to walk and take care of a Golden Poodle for a year nearby Long Branch. I love dogs and I’m always from my own so I’d love to take care and be around them. I’ve taken care of puppies and also my own dog who was 16 years old before she passed recently. I play soccer at Monmouth, our practices are from 10-12. Other than that, I’m mostly free. Being a senior I don’t have much class and I’m a very active person so I’d love to walk/run with dogs. I’ll make sure your dog feels safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll follow any instructions you leave for feeding, walks, medications, or routines. I’m very responsible and will give your dog plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise. I’m also happy to send pictures and updates while I’m with them.
“My review of Holly is exceptional. I had a last-minute emergency that I had to attend to, and I reached out to Holly, and she responded very quickly. She was willing to meet up with me within 30 to 40 minutes, and experience and professionalism were a perfect match for my three-month-old German shepherd. I would highly recommend her.”
“Trupti and her family were very friendly and provided an amazing stay for our high energy beagle. Trupti was very prompt on sending updates and was keen on knowing all the things about my dog to make sure my dog feels like home. They have a huge secured backyard which is a huge plus. Would love to come again for dog boarding.”
“Kathleen was the BEST! This was our first time using Rover and we were so so nervous, but Kathleen made our experience so easy. She kept us updated every day with adorable photos, took our pupper out to a doggie friendly restaurant, and even gave him a bath before we came to get him! Kathleen was so flexible and understanding that she stayed awake until midnight so we could come get our little guy a day early because we couldn’t spend another night without him. We’ll 100% be using Kathleen again — highly recommended!!”

“Keith and his wife Jennifer are amazing with my greyhounds and my greys truly love them. They are a special breed and former racers, so they have some personalities. They always come back so content and happy. They are previous dog owners of large breeds, so I feel very comfortable to leave my sticks with them. Highly recommend.”
“Kaiden was great with our Benzo! We had a bit of a situation and Kaiden took our pup on short notice and was wonderful! We received photos and videos of our little guy and he looked happy and comfortable. We would rebook with Kaiden again in the future :)”
About: My family and I have been dog lovers and owners for over 27 years; caring not only for our own pups, but also for the dogs of friends and family. With that much experience, we know every dog has their own personality, needs, and quirks and we love them all! We currently share our home with a sweet, high energy female boxer, who adores making new friends, so your pup will get both loving care and a playful buddy while you’re away. I’m available for boarding both weekdays and weekends making it easy to fit your dogs needs into my schedule. Dogs in our care enjoy a routine of two-three daily walks, early morning, mid afternoon and evening depending on dogs needs and weather. In addition they receive plenty of backyard playtime throughout the day to keep them happy healthy, and engaged. Feeding schedules can be adjusted to maintain their typical routine. Your dog’s safety is always my priority. The fenced in yard with locked gates provides a secure space for outdoor play, and our friendly 2 1/2 year-old boxer is here to keep your pup company. For added peice of mind, we have indoor cameras to keep an eye on things if we have to step out and cameras around the outside of the entire home, although dogs are never left unattended outside. I can also offer crates if preferred and have designated areas to separate dogs during feeding time to ensure a calm and stress-free environment.
“Loves dogs. Did great with Eddie. We were on vacation and booked a night of boarding so we could go into the city. Figured out what he liked. Great updates throughout the day. Very clean home. I’d board him with her again. Wish she lived closer to us in Ohio.”

This was my second time using Meredith and she’s worth every penny! I’ve taken my dog Zeke to 10+ different people over the years and multiple moves and she’s been BY FAR the best we’ve ever used. Meredith sends pictures, consistent updates, and gets your dog a ton of exercise. If that’s not enough, she gives you a picture of your dog at the end with a note about their experience for the time period with her. I would use Meredith again and again!
Samantha watched my mom’s two dogs for a week, right after one of them was spayed and had a small lesion on her neck from having a bump removed. getting them back, they seem so happy, comfortable, and clearly very well taken care of! this was something we were really worried about since no one has ever watched them before, so we were so happy to receive nothing but great feedback and to see how comfortable they were when we got them back. thank you so much, Samantha! if you’re looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter, i definitely recommend her!! 🫶
Jonathan is the absolute best. I had an unplanned trip to Mexico last minute I was able to book last minute. I received updates Throughout the day. Kingston came back smelling great super happy and full. Typically my baby boy gets very bad separation anxiety and will stop eating. Jonathan made sure his anxiety was controlled. He was happy and a I couldn’t be any happier with his service. Thank you so much !!!!!
How lucky we are to have found Tokar to watch our Charli girl!! Tokar is warm and loving even welcoming Charli with her very own welcome sign on the porch when we arrived. We received picture updates and just knew Charli was having a great time. We look forward to seeing Tokar again!!!
Kate took such amazing care of our girl! It is clear that she truly loves dogs and treats each one she cares for like they’re her own. We could tell when we picked our dog up that she was happy, healthy, and relaxed. We especially loved that she let our dog sleep with her in bed since that is something she is used to doing at home with us. We also appreciated the photos and updates Kate sent us. We will definitely be booking with Kate again in the future!
