“Shirley is amazing! She is very accommodating and so great with our dog Ghost. He gets very excited when I say Shirley’s coming today. Thank you so much and looking forward to our weekly visits”
About: I’m currently a volunteer dog walker with Burlington county animal shelter since 2023! I walk all dogs from small to large. I have experience with dogs that are reactive, scared and social butterflies ranging from 1 years old to seniors 10+. I currently work full time Monday-Friday in healthcare( until 4pm), so evenings or any time on the weekends I am usually free! I walk dogs at my local animal shelter on the weekends, but my schedule is very flexible. I believe that every dog I encounter they must be treated like royalty! A pet is your family and I want them to receive the same love and care as I provide for my dog and shelter pups.
“Reina has been a relief for us while our family member who usually dog-sits is recovering from surgery. She’s a great communicator and very affectionate towards our puppy Fritz. We appreciate having her to help us!”
About: When I was 9 or 10, I had a beloved pet that we sadly had to give away due to a tough moving situation. Years later, we were lucky to bring Charlie home and Marvel, and they have been cherished members of our family for a few years. As a remote college student, I understand how important it is to find reliable help for your pets. I'm here for you and available to pet sit any day of the week or over the weekend. Your furry friends will be in good hands! I can walk your dog every 2-3 hours to ensure they get the exercise and attention they need. Additionally, I have a fenced yard with cameras for safety, where they can play. My own dog, Charlie, a friendly, neutered, vaccinated maltipoo, would love to have a companion to share some fun with! And Cocker spaniel named Marvel (he isn’t neutered yet due to age) who is also vaccinated.
“First time using Jimi and he was great. Walked a bit with to make sure my dog was comfortable. She was at ease with him from the start. Arrived on time and completed two walks with short notice. Thanks.”
About: Having a small tiny dog(chihuahua) of my own, I've learned to be creative with the activities that we do as well as find different places to take her for walks. My dog is very temperamental, so I've had to increase my own training skills to be able to be a better pet mom. I'm open to trying new things and I'm great at following instructions. I am extremely dependable and I pride myself on always being on time and communicating when things don't go as planned. I love all dogs and will take care of yours as if its my own. My specific availability is Monday thru Friday 6 AM-8 AM and anytime after 5 PM. I have open availability on the weekends which is where I hope to do the most work. I work from home two days a week (Monday and Tuesday)and am off on weekends so I have plenty of time to fit in long weekend boardings. I have a fenced in yard which makes it easy to carve out play time or potty breaks. My neighborhood is extremely dog friendly and there is a dog park within walking distance.
About: I’ve been a dog lover my whole life and had my own dog for 16 years. I started dog sitting about 3 years ago and have experience with in-home visits for scheduled feedings, walks, and overnight stays. I’ve also welcomed dogs into my home for a few days at a time. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding, bathing, and administering medication. Your pup will be cared for like family 🤍 I currently work part-time and attend school full-time, with three completely free days each week. However I am flexible and I plan my schedule carefully to give pets the time and attention they deserve. I make sure feedings, walks, playtime, and check-ins are always a priority in my routine. Making sure pets are safe, comfortable, and happy is always my top priority. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I carefully follow all care instructions and stick to their usual routines. I have a large, fenced-in backyard with plenty of space for safe playtime and zoomies! I maintain a clean, secure environment and treat every pet like my own so they feel loved and at ease. 🐾🤍
About: I have taken care of friends and family’s fur babies for years and now looking to help others! I have house/dog sat many times including puppies and elder dogs. I have a ton of patience and love for animals which allows me to connect with each pet and give them the care they need. I currently work full time from home. This allows me to have a flexible schedule and be able to do check ins/walks during the week. I am usually free weekends as well. I follow any instructions given by the fur parents. You know your fur baby the best so I make sure I follow the routine as closely as possible.
About: I have always loved animals. I grew up with 2 cats & have owned a beagle for the past 6 years. I understand how important daily exercise, love & attention are for any animal. Trusting someone with your pet can be hard, I will be sure to send plenty of photo/text updates if desired! I am currently at home full-time. This gives me plenty of flexibility with pet care. I can provide drop-in visits & dog walks throughout the day. I am happy to help! I am dependable & will keep your pet comfortable in their own space. I will follow your pets routine of feeding, walking, playing, or any special instructions. I can send photo updates for peace of mind. I will most likely have my baby with me in a carrier or stroller so I can only accommodate child-friendly dogs. The carrier keeps me hands-free to make sure I can give your dog my attention & play! I will always confirm with you that this is okay before booking.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and truly love caring for them. I’m also a critical care nurse with five years of experience, so I’m dependable, attentive, and comfortable handling medications, special instructions, and unexpected situations with a calm, caring approach. I have a senior dog of my own, so I understand how important patience, compassion, and personalized care are. Since my senior pup can no longer enjoy long walks, I’d love to give your dog the exercise and adventure they deserve! Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply relaxing with company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’ll stick to their routine, provide fresh food and water, administer medications if needed, and send plenty of photo updates so you can relax knowing your best friend is in loving hands. As a critical care nurse, my schedule varies, but I know it well in advance and keep my availability updated. On my days off, I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pet, whether that means long walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company. I pride myself on being reliable, punctual, and communicative, and I’ll send regular photo and video updates so you always know how your pet is doing. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a critical care nurse with five years of experience, I’m calm under pressure, detail-oriented, and comfortable following medication schedules and special care instructions. I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, including my own senior dog, so I understand that every pet has unique needs. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or elderly, I’ll treat them like family by following their routine, keeping them safe on walks, and giving them plenty of love and attention while you’re away.
About: In my 30 years of experience I have welped puppies and kittens, administered medications (including injections,) managed elderly care, special needs, special diets, bathing, behavior, and so much more. :) I use my fine tuned empathy and sharp observation skills to monitor mood, changes, and head them off at the pass. The more you learn how to communicate with an animal on their terms, the easier it is to meet their needs and yours. Caring for animals and animal behavior are one of the most captivating and fulfilling things that enrich my life. Animals are a big part of my daily routine, and I build my day around caring for pets . I enjoy a laid-back, slower-paced lifestyle with plenty of time for walks, outdoor time, and providing calm, attentive companionship. I have a yard where pets can safely enjoy fresh air and supervised outdoor time, and I love creating a comfortable environment where they feel relaxed, secure, and loved while their families are away. Our home is 2,000 sq ft with two floors, outfitted with crates and gates making it easy to keep dogs separated if necessary. We have a newly installed, fully secured fence around an ample backyard for fetches, sniffles, and safe play. Our neighborhood is calm, quiet, and filed with wildlife making walks calm yet engaging.

“My original Rover Walker canceled at the last minute before my vacation, and Kristin saved the day! My dog, Kini, chose Kristin on the app and we couldn’t be happier! I enjoyed all the pictures and notes Kristin left. Kini didn’t want to walk the entire half hour, so Kristin spent the remainder of the time giving her belly rubs, which was Kini’s dream come true. I felt less guilty going on vacation without Kini because she was in such great hands! We will definitely book again. Thank you!!! ❤️?”

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Bristol. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
