Dog Walkers in Brigantine, NJ

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was 10 years old, helping neighbors, friends, and family with daily walks, feedings, and baths. Over the years, I’ve also fostered animals in need, giving them a safe and loving home until they found their forever families. In addition to my personal experience, I worked in a veterinary hospital where I learned to handle a wide range of pet care needs — from grooming and administering medications to providing comfort and care in a professional setting. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I have a full-time job but work from home once a week, allowing me to stay flexible. I’m free most evenings and weekends to care for your pets with attention and love. I provide loving, attentive care for pets either in my home or yours. My home features a fenced-in yard for safe play, access to the beach for fun outings, and a friendly resident cat. I make sure every pet feels comfortable, happy, and part of the family while in my care.

About: I have 2 dogs and 3 cats of my own that make my family complete. I treat them with the love and kindness they deserve. I trained my dogs alongside a Professional K-9 Officer providing me with the strategies necessary to gain the respect of any dog with positive praise and rewards. I have always had a special connection with cats being surrounded by them since I was a baby. My love of animals has motivated me to rescue and raise cats and dogs for the past 30 years. I have been an Elementary Teacher for 22 years, which is a perfect example of my heightened level of love and patience for all living people and animals! My schedule allows for an open summer, holiday, and weekend schedule, and week nights throughout the school year. As a mother of 2 boys, 2 dogs, and 3 cats, and a 4th Grade Teacher, safety is my first priority. I am very aware of my surroundings, focused on keeping everyone protected and clear of harmful or unsafe environments. I have taught my own dogs to focus and avoid distractions to always maintain safe surroundings.

About: I have cared for pets for over 20 years in a variety of settings. My own pets, as well as friends, family members, and neighbors. I have also been previously employed by a professional dog walking company, which I remained with for two years. My responsibilities included walking the dogs, taking them to the park, feeding, and staying overnight in many cases while owners were away. I would also care for cats, rabbits, and other animals. I have experience with medication administration, such as eyedrops and pills. I love animals and I have a very calm, nurturing disposition. Safety and snuggles are my two priorities!

I am also able to easily stay in others homes due to my job. It's incredibly important to me to make sure that your pet feels safe, loved and cared for. Pets are like family, and I know how hard it is to leave them sometimes, especially with a new person. I have a two story home and they are free to roam around as they please, lay on the couch, sit out on the deck (weather permitting). If I am at your home, I follow your care instructions very carefully and I am respectful your space. I have an 8 year old standard goldendoodle who is very friendly. However, if your dog may not get along with another dog, I am able to take mine to his grandpa's house to watch him so I can prioritize yours.

About: I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and 5 years of experience caring for cats with a wide range of needs. From energetic puppies and daily walks to senior pets who need extra patience and gentle care, I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s routine and temperament. I prioritize safety, consistency, and genuine affection in every visit. I’m experienced with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, leash manners, litter box care, and providing plenty of playtime, enrichment, and cuddles. I understand how important it is for pets to feel secure while their owners are away, and I take pride in creating a calm, loving environment where they can feel at home. Your pet’s comfort and well-being are always my top priority, and I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I’m very organized with my schedule, which allows me to plan walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins consistently throughout the day. I make sure each pet receives dedicated attention, not just a quick visit, so they feel comfortable and cared for. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-ins, or longer stays, I build my routine around a pet’s specific needs and usual schedule to keep things as normal and stress-free as possible while their owner is away. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and attentive care at all times. This includes providing regular walks and playtime, maintaining feeding and litter box routines, administering basic medications if needed, and giving plenty of affection and reassurance. I also make sure to keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pet is happy and well cared for while they’re away.

“Great job. And took pics to show how Dempsey was doing which is very reassuring. The only reason I rate a 4 is because the last walk I requested at 4pm and she was 40min late. Not a huge deal but I had to check in to make sure she was going”
