Dog Sitting Bridgeport

About: I grew up with rabbits and various small pets. My first dog, Toto, was trained by me in elementary and middle school. Now, I spend my evenings caring for others animals whenever possible! I work 7:30 am to 3 pm as a teacher! My day does allow for a mid day visit, distance depending! Free every evening for walks and lots of attention! Experienced with crate trained dogs and more free range styles. Love building trust with animals and keeping their days typical and calm while their owners are away!

“Heather does a beyond excellent job of taking care of our older dog with separation anxiety and special needs. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and responsible pet sitter.”

About: I've been caring for cats and dogs as a volunteer at the salem county humane society for over two years and have been a certified veterinary assistant for nearly three. I'm responsible for the general care that dogs need like walking, feeding and cleaning. I love caring for dogs and walking them for as long as they may need I'm currently available all days and hours of the week including weekends. I'm open to every given opportunity. The only thing i cannot do is bring pets to my home. I care for pets as needed and requested by the client. I am well aware of any and all things dogs depends on humans for including medical attention and consider every possible issue a pet may be experiencing.

About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Throughout the years, I’ve provided dependable pet sitting for dogs, cats, and other companion animals, ensuring they receive the love, attention, and care they deserve while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I take pride in creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for them. Whether it’s walks, playtime,, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My schedule varies by the week. Sometimes I am around 24/7 other times I will be out of the house for up to 6 hours at a time. Reach out for availability. When your pet is in my care, they will receive plenty of attention, affection, and personalized care based on their individual needs. I make it a priority to maintain their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions you provide. Whether your pet enjoys active play, relaxing companionship, or extra patience and reassurance, I will ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I pay close attention to their well-being and behavior, and I treat every pet as if they were a member of my own family, providing the care, respect, and kindness they deserve.

About: I always knew I wanted to work with animals, but it wasn’t until I started working at a kennel that I discovered my true calling: dog training. In September 2023, I made the decision to pursue this path seriously by attending National K-9 Dog Training School in Ohio, where I earned my certification as a professional dog trainer. Now, I’m proud to turn that passion into a career. I’m deeply committed to helping dogs and their owners build strong, respectful relationships, and I love sharing my training methods to make a positive impact on both ends of the leash. I’m trying to get my small business out into the world and taking small steps like this will help me! I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your fur babies! I'm available for boarding and weekdays. My schedule with my part time job changes each week but I make sure to let my clients know! I will ALWAYS be talking to your fur baby! They become family once entering this home. I currently live in an apartment that has a designated area to bring your dog to have fun off leash!

About: I can take any type of animals!! Crazy, big, small, etc. I love em all. I’m very outgoing with them! And love playing and going on walks and talking to the animals!! My mom worked on Rover for a few years and I always helped out when her clients wanted her care but she wasn’t available. We had dogs stay at our house and it was just as fun for me as it was for them! My mom helped me realize this type of job and without a doubt I would love to do what she did! I am currently in an internship in Center City Monday-Friday. But once school starts I’ll be working there part time so my availability will open up more. I have no problem with stopping by in the before and after work to care you your dog/dogs! I am always free Friday into Sunday if you need a caretaker for your pet while you are away. I have them in my view at all times!! I have good communications with dogs and make sure their needs are met by their body language.

“Our second time having Olivia do drop in visits with our pups! She is so flexible and accommodating. The pups love her. Thanks again for taking great care of our little fur babies.”

“Monica has been so sweet, and willing to come on last minute visit requests. She goes above and beyond anyone I’ve met, even voluntarily cleaning up puppy messes or accidents he might have gotten in to after breaking out of crates. She always keep me updated and sends the cutest photos. So thankful for her, and love to continue my pups play time with her.”

About: Hi, I'm Bethany! I have been caring for pets for many of years and believe every animal deserves love and attentive care. I specialize in Labrador Retrievers, German Shorthair Pointers, and Goldendoodles. I am comfortable with administering medication such as insulin shots as well as given oral medication. I treat all pets like my own offering overnights in your home, drop-in visits, and walks. My goal is to ensure your pet stays happy and comfortable while you're away! I am very flexible and usually have tons of open availability as I do not have many customers at the moment so I would be available at most times! I have a large yard (no fence) for your animal to explore in. Plenty of dog toys for your pet to play with from my previous dog. Plenty of leashes to take your pet for a walk. I live on a quiet road with a quiet development behind me that’s great for walking.

“Very good experience with Liz! She was quick to respond and helped us a lot throughout the entire trip. I usually feel worried about our pets while gone for so long, but Liz made us feel good about them being cared for.”

“Deanna was so lovely! She accommodated us as with a last minute request and responded quickly by asking lots of questions about our dogs, their habits, and needs. She followed our instructions to the letter and although it was a quick drop in, she still gave us a full report and pictures. We will definitely use her again in the future!”

“Britney communicated with us during each visit. She took several photos of all of our dogs and asked questions when she didn’t know the answer. Our dogs absolutely loved her. We are so thankful for her services.”

About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was a kid. My friends, family and neighbors ask me to watch and take care of there dogs when they are away. I'm currently laid off from work so I am flexible with my days and hours at this time. That may change in the future once I find employment but that will all be communicated. Meet & Greet: I always schedule a pre-booking visit to meet you and your dog, review routines, habits, medical needs, and confirm house rules. Access & security: I follow your preferred entry method (key, lockbox, smart lock), never share access, and ensure doors/windows are locked when leaving. Emergency preparedness: I keep your vet and emergency clinic contact info, a signed care authorization, and your dog’s medical records on hand. I’ll seek veterinary care immediately if needed and notify you right away. Medication & feeding: I follow your exact feeding schedule and portion sizes, and administer medications precisely as instructed (documented each time). Safety checks: I remove hazards, secure trash and toxic items, supervise interactions, keep collars/tags on, and avoid off‑leash situations unless explicitly allowed and safe. Familiar environment: I maintain your dog’s normal routine (walks, play, rest spots, toys) to reduce stress and preserve your home’s layout and cleanliness. Cleanliness & hygiene: I clean up accidents promptly, sanitize bowls/toys when appropriate, and follow any special cleaning instructions you provide. Supervision & enrichment: I provide appropriate exercise, play, and mental stimulation tailored to your dog’s age and energy level while monitoring for signs of stress or illness. Communication & updates: I send regular check‑ins with photos and a brief report after each visit (or as often as you prefer).

“Briana is the best! My pups loved her and so did I! She’s on time, took great care of my 2 dogs & sends great pictures & updates! Will definitely use her again very soon!!”

About: I’m a veterinary student at Rowan and looking for a side gig. I’ve worked with paraplegic and elderly dogs, trained puppies, and volunteered at SPCA. I would be looking to work mainly on the weekends. If needed, I can occasionally work early evening (5 pm to 8 pm) on weekdays. I prioritize creating a safe environment by paying attention to each pet’s body language and behavior. Through the SPCA, I learned about pet psychology and how to recognize signs of fear or stress, as well as how to use appropriate handling techniques to build trust.

About: I own and live with two dogs I take care of regularly. Looking for some additional work to help and take care of your lovely furpets. Pet care fits into my life daily. I have two dogs at home where I am taking care of them and providing the best life possible! I do not work and have plenty of times on my hands to asssir with your loved fur babies! Only need 24 hours notice I provide a lot of love, care and service to my animals. It’s important to make sure they are safe and secure and taken care of just as much as humans! I love to walk, play, cuddle and feed the pets.

About: I have a senior yellow lab (almost 13 years old!) who has been in my life since he was 8 weeks old. As he gets older, more and more care is required for him. Along with that, I have worked with families of different dogs when dogsitting is needed. This care ranged from small to large dogs at all stages of life. I enjoy playing in the yard with them. As someone who has had a dog for so long, I know how people want their dog treated when they are away. I am offering love and care to your dogs while you are away, so they don’t feel lonely at all! I am looking for weekend dog sitting plans. I work a full time job during the week and will not be able to provide the care I hope to for your dogs on the weekdays. As mentioned, I know how much our dogs matter to us! I will do exactly what you request with your dog! Whether that is walks, playing, certain food techniques and more!

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs, both big and small, practically my whole life! I know how to be patient with them and I love to explore their fun-loving personalities! Aside from personal appointments and family commitments I have a pretty open schedule, I love spending time with animals so the more time the better! I always make sure the pet is watched in an enclosed area and pay close attention to their body language to ensure they are comfortable and not anxious or overwhelmed.

About: Hey! My name is Conan and Im a veterinary medicine student. I love working with animals of all types and sizes and I'd love to meet your friend! I have experience fostering and volunteering at animal shelters, including everything from dogs, cats, bottle-fed babies, elderly kitties, reptiles, ducks, chickens, special-needs dogs/cats, and birds. I have a few years of experience dog walking and I have house sat for people with all different pets & for varying amounts of time. I also have two cats (North age 8 & Marcel age 4) and a leopard gecko (Sandwich age 3) of my own! They are my best friends and whole world. I'm currently going to Vet school full time several days during the week, but I'm available Friday through Monday for bookings. When house sitting I can spend as much time as is needed in the home for walks, playtime, any cleanups, potty breaks, etc. But I do prefer to sleep in my own home because of my two cats who need me at night. However I am flexible and if your pet has a specific need or doesn't do well being alone certain times of day we can work to accomodate that. Your pet's safety is a non negotiable for me, it is so important to me that your pet feels comfortable with me no matter what we're doing. Establishing a bond with an animal can be the most rewarding experience in the world! When talking about safety with any pet, I take a precautious approach with anything that could become an 'oops!' or a 'hey you, get that out of your mouth!' moment. So I will always take precautions with anything being left out unmonitored like toys, food, anything chewable, stringy, or soft toys, etc. I never want to have to think twice about a preventable accident with your pet, so I always take the time to keep everyone safe. This goes especially for walks, your dog or cat's safety is always going to be at the front of my mind when interacting with any other furry friends nearby, as it is always better to be safe than sorry. Every pet needs a different relationship approach, and different play styles! There are some pets who just want to cuddle, ones who need specific play-styles to be interested, and others who need someone up to the task of frizbee-ing the Tasmanian Devil out of them! I know personally one of my cats only wants to lazily swat at one specific toy he keeps losing, and the other wants to run and leap around for 20 minutes straight. I am dedicated to learning what your pet really likes so they have a great time with me, and you can go to work, over a friends, or on vacation without a worry that they living their best life.
