About: I have taken care of close friends and families pets for years and I have decided to expand and see if anyone else needs care for their animals! I have plenty of experience working with animals. I started out as a farm aid at Turtleback zoo a couple years ago and left to go work with marine mammals in Florida. When I came back to NJ I went to Cape May and worked as a full time seasonal animal keeper. After my 6 months were up I went back to Turtleback zoo as a Relief Keeper. I left the zoo field December 2021 and started working part time at a local vet clinic where I work with all size dogs and cats. I know how to give medications also if your dog or cat have any special needs! I currently work full time, first shift for a laboratory. I also work part time at a vets office but when I am dog sitting I do not just do that your pets have more of my attention and are my priority. If I were to stay at your house I can walk your dog around your neighborhood or take them on local hiking trails! Whatever works best! I am here to care for your animals just as I would my own. My dogs Cooper and Ginger are very spoiled and I can guarantee yours will be also! Depending on the needs of your pet will be the deciding factor of our daily routine. We can talk about that more in details if you decide to message me! I have two mini dachshunds that are friendly and love to walk/hike! If your dog is friendly and adventurous I would bring them along for the fun!
About: I love taking care of animals. Animal energy is something I love having in my life. I have had dogs and cats since I was born. Now I have my very own Border Collie named Iris who I love with all my heart. I was always interested in animal care bathing walking cooking my own dog special food. I recently made the decision to leave my place of employment after 25 years. So now I can commit to animal care as much or as little as I can. I don't have a routine yet but hopefully I will establish one soon. I have done numerous overnights with up to 4 dogs. I ask the owners for a printed copy of each dogs habits, routine and exercise preferences. Also if the dog has any leash or food aggression.
About: I have taken care of a wide variety of dogs and cats throughout my life for friends and family members! As a dog and cat owner myself I feel confident in my abilities to give your pets the love and care they deserve. I am an athletic trainer with a high school locally and I typically have every morning and early afternoon available or late evenings as well. I do not typically stay over night for house sitting as I do have my own animals but I will always make sure your animals are taken care of appropriately and timely! I have a puppy currently who is very friendly with other animals that I can bring along to play and walk or leave home if the animal is not friendly with other animals. In a clients home I follow specific instructions for each animal whether it be feeding or walking however the owner prefers.
“Michael and Tracy were wonderful from the moment we met! They were understanding and accommodating to us during the walk through where I introduced them to our animals and discussed their feeding schedule. And we returned home to everything looking perfect, they tidied up after our animals and everyone was well fed and happy. We have 4 cats and 3 young indoor rabbits, all cared for and shown love. I would 100% call upon Michael and Tracy again for more drop in visits in the future!”
About: I’ve taken care of many different animals over the years! From friends bearded dragons, to dogs & cats, you name it. I used to take care my neighbors dogs when they went on vacation every year, growing up. And recently I’ve taken care of my boyfriend’s parent’s dog, who needs medication given to him, and their senior cat. I am capable of longer walks or hikes and lifting up to 70lbs if necessary. I will be working full-time starting April 25th, but as of right now I’m available pretty much whenever, as long as the timing is reasonable! I have no animals in the home currently, as we’re settling into a new house, and live in an area where the dog would need to be on leash at all times when we’re outside.
“Thanks again! All went well ! Good communication and was relieved to know my cat was being well taken care of and would recommend. ?”

About: I have been taking care of all types of animals since I could walk. I grew up near farms and ranches in Colorado, had Guinea pigs, dogs, cats, fish, frogs and many more species. I have taken care of 12 newborn Great Dane pups, large breeds and the smallest breeds. I am experienced with animal care, protocols, health issues, CPR and first aide for animals. In the past I have been challenged with aggressive animals and handled them with the best care, patience and understanding. Under any aggressive dog, is a scared puppy. All animals deserve respect and love. As a busy pet parent myself I understand how important it is to care for our pets, as they are apart of our families. I have a full time job and am off on the weekends. I am always available in the afternoons, over nights until I have to leave for work in the mornings, and can do frequent walks. Here we understand that our pets need attention, socialization, and love in order to thrive. I have two dogs of my own at home, a three y/o Great Dane names Eggo and a 2 year old basset hound named Maple. I care for your dogs like I care for mine. We understand that every dog and pet has a specific schedule and needs. We follow their schedules the best we can, we follow feedings, potty breaks and can administer meds if need be.
