About: As a passionate animal advocate, I've had the privilege of serving as the Foster Care Coordinator at the Gloucester-Mathews Humane Society for 1 year, while also volunteering with shelters throughout my adult life. Additionally, I'm a Certified Veterinarian Assistant, and my life's journey has been enriched by sharing it with diverse animals, from beloved domestic pets like dogs and cats, to hospice and senior animals. I'm committed to providing your cherished pets with the same love, care, and compassion that I've devoted to my own. I am thrilled to be available Monday through Friday from 9 am to 5 pm. If you have a special request for different hours, I invite you to share your needs and I will eagerly discuss and arrange a solution that works for you. I will nurture your fur babies with the same love and devotion I would shower upon my own precious little ones. With my extensive shelter experience, I have been blessed to work with dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes, temperaments and life stages. I have had the joy of caring for rambunctious puppies and the privilege of providing comfort to senior dogs and cats.
“Linda really put me at ease and was great with my dogs too. We had a great meet and greet and my dogs warmed right up to her. Even my standoffish dog was more at ease around Lina than she is with most people coming to the house. Linda really knows her way around dogs and having someone you can trust with your furbabies is a lifesaver!”
“It was a holiday weekend and stressful to begin with, especially finding care for Maxx. Rebecca made that the least of my worries. She was really great with Maxx (he is a big boy and can be a handful) and the high points of my days away were her comments and pictures of what they did together and how he was doing. She also did a lot of little things she really didn't have to: taking him for a little walk, scooping my cat's box, taking out the trash, etc. I really could not have made a better choice! Thanks Rebecca!”
“Sarah takes your pets’ well-being seriously, as well as your instructions for caring for them. She was prompt and responsive, and always kept us in the loop with detailed visit notes and great pictures. Our Taro Bun is very sweet but has some special care instructions and Sarah handled everything well, with no issues. Absolutely recommend her for conscientious pet sitting!”
“Lily did a wonderful job looking after our dogs and cats. She gave them her full attention and provided us with updates and pictures. Will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Jenna was a life saver. We have two sweet 14 year old Australian shepherds who are a little wobbly and don’t see as well as they used to. I was afraid to leave them but Jenna was amazing!! Got tons of pics and updates. It was such a relief. Jenna is a true dog lover and really took care of our guys like they were her own. She spent tons of time with them. I’ll definitely use her again and pass her info along to friends.”
“With next to no notice Karen came to the house and took on the care of three dogs and a cat- and we couldn’t have been more pleased. Friendly, obviously a pet lover and very competent, we are so glad we had the chance to use her services - will definitely be repeat customers!”
“Melanie was fantastic taking care of my cat, Jimmy. I went out of state for Christmas and had her come twice a day for a week to feed him and clean his litter box. She sent me pics, videos and notes the whole time which was comforting since I had never left him for more than 2 days before this trip. She even took my trash and cleaned out the sink of his bowls. I can definitely recommend Melanie!”
“Highly recommend Kellie! She was wonderful with our pets despite having to take care of a grumpy Pyrenees on antibiotics. She kept us updated and sent pics as well. We will definitely use her for our pet sitting needs again.”
About: I have owned, trained and taken care of a huge variety of breeds, temperaments and sizes. My current dog is a 120lb Shiloh Shepherd. My last was a 7lb Rat Terrier, Chihuahua mix!

Pets are part of your family and as such, will be treated with the utmost care, respect and diligence.

“Kelley is the absolute best! My husband and I have never left our cats with anyone before so we were hesitant to leave them but we are so thankful that we found someone like Kelley! She was so sweet and comforting and kept us updated throughout the week with pictures of our fur babies? If you want someone who really is going to take care and love your pets, Kelley’s your girl! 10/10 recommend her!”
“It was a pleasure to have Abby watch our pets! She was dependable, meticulous, the pets loved her and she furnished us with updates and photos. I would give her six stars if I could. Highly recommended.”
About: Creator and owner of dauchshund to the Rescue.I've always had a passion for animals since I was a little girl.I'm currently going to school for veterinary medicine. My life revolves around taking care of animals while running the rescue so I am always home to take care of all of their needs. Each dog and cat is different, so it's on a case-by-case basis, I always like to observe their behavior and take care of them based on what they seem comfortable with.
“Samantha was a joy to work with! I needed her to check in on our dog, Chloe, a few times while we were on a quick, one-night trip. She was more than happy to come meet Chloe and me a few days beforehand, which eased my dog-mom nerves. While we were gone, she provided great updates each time she visited Chloe, as well as pictures. She also took Chloe on a walk during each visit, which wasn’t required (we have a fenced-in backyard), but which Chloe really appreciated! Samantha is a true professional, and we will absolutely ask for her help again in the future!”
