“Peppa always enjoys staying with Christine. She gets lots of attention and always comes home relaxed . This says a lot for a little dog with anxiety. And I never worry when she is in Christine’s care”


2. Robert Z.
“Bobby is a friend of mine, his dog Nash (Goldendoodle) and my dog Maggie (AmStaf) are best friends and walk/play together on the beach a few days a week. This is at least the second dog that the Zuzolock's have had since I've known the family. Bobby is a great dog owner, Nash is a loved family member. I have also watched Nash at my home when there was a family emergency. Bobby has also watched my dog on several occasions. Boby is a great dog dad, and his dog Nash lives a pampered life. I also fully trust him to watch Maggie. Nash is also incredibly dog friendly, making it easy for Bobby to include other dogs in out routine.”

“Ziara watched our golden for us for one night while visiting Cape May NJ. She was great in communicating and sending us pics of our baby. I would highly recommend her. We would use her again if ever down there. Thank you Ziara🤠”


4. Mariah R.


“Mariah was amazing, I don’t usually leave my dogs with someone I don’t know and was very nervous. I have a 13 year old Shichon with cancer and a 1 year old Shichon. From the minute my dogs got there they seemed happy. I received pictures and videos everyday which put me more at ease. It was like they had their own vacation. I would highly recommend Mariah and will be using her next year when I come to the beach.”

About: I raised two dogs of my own. Experienced with senior and blind dogs as one of my babies was as she got older. I am extremely patient and love all animals. I work from home so I am available for pet sitting during the day. I can also do just walks. I am open to over night stays as well. I have items from when I had my dogs. I have crates and beds. I have a ton of dog toys. I also do not mind dogs on the furniture.

About: Will ensure proper care of your furbabies. Never worry that your pets are not being cared for. With years of practice with our own dogs, I understand the needs of pets. If it is overnight care you need, your pups will become part of the family. We will show them love and attention and they will have a large area to run and play. Both of our children are fond of any dog they have ever met. Want to ensure your pup is ok while you are at work? I have the freedom to check in on them throughout the day or you can drop them off to me to spend the day. I promise to love your furbabies as if they were my own! I currently work part-time from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive and loving care for your four-legged family members. Whether it’s keeping them company during the day, ensuring they get plenty of exercise and playtime, or catering to their specific needs, I’m here to help. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate various care requests, so your pets will always feel safe, happy, and well-loved in my care. When pets stay in my home, they are treated like family. I provide a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment where they can relax and play. Daily activities include: Exercise & Playtime: Walks, outdoor play in a secure area, and interactive toys to keep them engaged. Comfort & Routine: Maintaining their feeding schedules, bedtime routines, and any specific care instructions you provide. Extra Attention: Plenty of cuddles, affection, and supervision to ensure they feel at ease while you're away.


8. Janet P.

“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience for Penny’s stay! From start to finish, she was communicative and kept us updated with regular messages and adorable pictures, so we always knew Penny was in good hands. Penny came back happy, relaxed, and clearly entertained—she even seemed to have had her own little vacation! We’re so grateful for the care and attention Penny received and highly recommend Janet’s services to any pet parent. We will definitely be booking again!”


9. Jarilyn M.
About: I have grown up around animals especially dogs and cats all my life and I love all animals. I believe dogs and cats are like children and just want to be loved, nurtured, and played with. I love to play and love on dogs and get them out and about playing for the ones who want to play fetch and run around but I also love to just let the dogs cuddle up and take a nap as well. I am flexible and can take your babies out to play and give them all the attention they want to receive as I am a stay at home mom so they get plenty of attention. I love big and small dogs and am okay with fluffy dogs and no haired dogs. I treat all animals as if they were my own children. My kids and I love to play with the dogs we watch and the dogs always love to snuggle up with my children and I on the couches and beds if owners allow as well. We will love your pets as our own and send lots of pictures so you know your babies are well taken care of!

“Eric J. took a very good care of our dog Pinti. She was happy in his home and she loves his backyard. She is going to stay with him again for a week.”


12. Sandee W.

“I have been using Rover.com for 3 years and Sandee has exceeded our expectations as a care giver. I love that she only took one dog at a time. We felt our dog was well cared for and loved as we would. She was very accommodating when we needed to change our day. She will be the first we ask for, the next time we need a sitter.”


13. Mike M.

“Mike took our dog on short notice on a holiday weekend. He sent picture updates whenever I texted him, as well as text messages on how she was doing. My dog seemed to have loved her stay with Mike. He is a very nice and pleasant person to talk to. I would recommend Mike and his dog services 10/10. Thanks again Mike.”


14. Chelsea-Rose L.

“I think Cody really enjoyed his first Boarding with Chelsea! We will certainly be back! In fact already have another Boarding booked! Chelsea communicated great and sent pictures. Her parents being there are an added bonus! Cody is getting lots of love!”




15. Robert R.


“Susan and Bob were amazing hosts! I live in NJ but my son had a weekend baseball tournament in Delaware. Since I had trouble finding a local sitter in my area, I figured I would find someone in Delaware close to my son’s tournament. Susan and Bob were very welcoming, accommodating, and took wonderful care of our 15 year-old furry family member. They were very communicative, sending texts and pictures to update us on how he was doing. I felt very comfortable leaving our beloved dog knowing he was in great hands with experienced and caring hosts. I highly recommend them! Thanks again for providing a home away from home for Jazzy! -Daffney and Chad”


16. Kelly W.

“Kelly was friendly and took great care of our dog over Christmas. She updated us with photos and texts which we appreciated. The location was convenient and easy to find. We recommend Kelly 100%.”


17. Marvina S.

“Marvina did an amazing job caring for our Birdie. She treated her like part of the family. She sent us daily updates and photos to ease our worries. It was obvious Birdie was loved and well cared for. We will definitely use her again!”


18. Sierra P.

“Sierra was great with our Chocolate Labrador! While on vacation, we needed someone to watch him while we went to a show out of town. Although timid, Sierra took her time and made our dog feel comfortable in a new space. We would definitely recommend to Sierra to any one who is local or from out of town!”


19. Erin F.

“Erin was great! Extremely professional, polite and amazing to both of my girls! She sent me many pictures through out the day and my girls were so happy and you can see it. Her communication with me was great throughout their stay. I Highly recommend her and will be using her again. Thank you Erin for treating my furbabies like your own!!”
