“Jen is beyond awesome!!! filled in for us at the last minute when we needed it most. super responsive, kind, fun, sweet, and caring to our most beloved little dog. 10/10 can’t recommend her enough !”
“Sheli was great! We needed help on short notice, and our dogs can be a challenge. She was on time, communicated with us about how they were doing, and took great care of our babies!”
About: I am a daily dog walker. My passion is to connect with dogs of any kind. It would be my pleasure to serve your dog a new friend and walking partner. I am available to walk your dog on Sundays, Mondays, Tuesdays at any time. The more notice the better, however, I do take short notice walks so long as I’m available. I respect a dog’s hesitancy to meeting new people. I offer patience, time, and a calm effort to earn your dog’s trust. A personal goal of mine is to make a positive interaction and connection with every dog I meet.
About: I worked at Green Leaf Pet Resort. I also had a 13 year old shih tzu who crossed the bridge along with my 3 year old pit and her 2 puppies. I helped my pittie give birth and helped her raise them. She's no longer with us unfortunately. Rest in Doggie Heaven my babies! I work with dogs everyday all day. I currently have a pit/australia shepherd mix and a bully xL puppy. She is the most sweetest, goofy and sassy puppy. I'm surrounded by dogs all day. I use whatever the owners use weather its a crate, having inside, or having them outside. I do whatever the owners does. But I would prefer the dog to have a crate for safety reasons.
About: Ive cared for my own pets and many friends pets mainly dogs throughout my life. From puppies to senior dogs. Never met one I didnt love. I run my own small planning firm so my schedule is very flexible. I am available during the week day or night for walks and pet care. I am happy to come to your home and play with your fur baby and also attend to any of his or her needs, feeding walking petting medication.
About: I have had many dogs all my life. I do have to say I love big dogs the bigger the better I say. People are always scared of big dogs but really most are harmless. As of now my schedule is free so I can work with people with what they need I will always fit u in no matter what. I will always follow the rules given to me for each animal. I know these are ur babies and I will give them all the love I have until they are back with you.
About: I’ve taken care of family pets to neighbors for probably the past 15 years and I’m also a pet stylist so I work with dogs every day I can be available like 2 to 4 hours every Monday and Wednesdays and probably occasional Sundays as well. Might add more days in the future. I can be a very active pet parent and go on long walks or I can snuggle up on the couch and binge watch a show and give all the love because dogs have always shown me the best loyalty from any living creature I’ve ever encountered
“Charlotte was great with our 2 boxers! She was on time for our meet and greet and showed up exactly when we agreed for our pet sitting… she communicated every step of the way and left our home and our puppies clean and happy!! Thank you Charlotte for all your help!!!”
“First time using Laura for house sitting. She took excellent care of both my Pickles and my home during my 7 day vacation keeping me updated regularly and sending photos every day. Will definitely be using Laura if I’m going away again.”
“If I could give Marissa 10 stars, I would. From the moment we met at my home for the "meet and greet", I felt at ease and my anxious almost 2 1/2 year-old Yorkie took to Marissa right away. Unfortunately, he's not very socialized with people or other dogs. Marissa was great with him from the moment they met. I had to have surgery, and unfortunately, I had to be at the surgeon's office at 7:00 am, which is 1 1/2 hours away so I had to leave my house by 5:30 am. When I mentioned to Marissa that she had to be here at 5:30 am, she didn't hesitate for a moment. She was not only punctual, but knowing I was extremely nervous about getting there on time, she arrived 10 minutes early. Marissa is very sweet and caring, and Harley was a happy boy with her here. I will definitely have Marissa stay with him again should I need to use a sitter in the future. If anyone is searching for a pet sitter in this area, I highly recommend Marissa! Thank you again, Marissa from Harley and Harley's Mom! ❤️”
About: My love for animals has always been very strong since I was little. I have experience with watching puppies and dogs, I also have a pup and will willingly provide care to your pet as if it were my own because pets are family. I’m currently working a part-time job and go to class Mondays/Wednesdays during the day. I can do overnights in your home, but we can work it out to what works best for us and your furry friend! I have a fenced backyard for your pet, i have a crate whenever you would like me to. I also have a camera in my home if I need to run out quickly, I am able to check on them.
“Kara was absolutely fantastic. My babies are 10 and 12 years old, and are very attached to me. I have never left them with a sitter they didn't know, and was a little worried about leaving them. Kara stayed with them, and sent me pictures and updates to let me know they were while I was away. If I ever need a sitter for them again, Kara will be on the top of my list!!! I”
About: I’m currently studying to be a dog trainer, I’ve been around many pets my whole life, I love animals. I’ve taken care of family and friends pets, I love all breeds and I’m ready for any challenge! I’m only studying at the moment so I have a lot of time to spend with your pets. Being around pets it’s an important part of my learning process as a trainer. I have a big fenced yard and a dog full of energy that would love to have a friend to play with so your dog would be well entertained. If I’m in another home I’ll follow your schedule and your dogs will have all their needs fulfilled.
About: I love dogs more than anything in this world and they are definitely what I am most passionate about. Since I recently lost my dog, Iam trying to become more involved with helping other dogs. Even if it’s just a few walks a week, I will always treat your dog as if it’s my own. Keeping your dog safe, healthy and happy is my number one priority. I will also take the time to personally get to know your dog and make him/her feel like they’re the only dog in the world! If you have any questions please feel free; thanks! Weekends I am free so that’s never an issue. My work schedule is Monday-Friday 7:00-3:30 in Bayville at Ocean County Utilities Authority. I can help out with your dog anytime after 4 during the week or even in the morning if I’m done by 6:30. I can always help out at noon too as I am on my break. Sometimes I can miss out on work too like I have for clients in the past as I have the time, so don’t be afraid to ask; I’m always easy to deal with! I live in a residential neighborhood near the water in Lanoka Harbor. My house is located on a long secluded street as there are no other houses. I can walk your dog however long you’d like and will even take them anywhere you might feel more safe if I happen to come to your neighborhood. I’ve walked my dogs multiple times a day throughout the years and have been lucky so far never having any issues. I hope to gain more trust and respect from both you and your dog after each walk!
“Krissi was great for a last minute trip. She treated my pup like her own and was great about communicating with me throughout the stay. Gave me peace of mind to have someone stay overnight. Definitely recommend her.”
About: Love and respect animals of all kinds. Long-time dog owner...all of which have lived beyond life expectancy. Simply put, I have a good rapport with almost every dog I have come in contact with. On the most basic level I am kind, trustworthy, and honest. I have a fairly flexible schedule and can work with dog owners own schedule. Flexible pet care would not be an issue for me as I can be available day and night. I have a pet-friendly home and I have a large expanse of woods behind my house with trails. Pets under my care would always be on a leash unless in a fenced yard.
