Dog Boarding Cape May

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I've never been without a pet, so caring for them is second nature. For many years I also volunteered as a foster, which taught me how to help nervous, shy, or recovering animals settle in and feel safe. Professionally, I'm a Registered Nurse. That means I'm comfortable giving oral medications, sticking to precise feeding and medication schedules, and noticing subtle changes in behavior, appetite, or energy that could signal a problem. Senior pets, special-needs pets, and animals recovering from surgery are in especially good hands with me. You'll get detailed updates and photos, and I'll follow your routine exactly as you'd do it yourself. My goal is simple: your pet stays calm and comfortable, and you get real peace of mind. I run my own care consulting business, so I have flexibility in my day and can plan visits around your pet's routine rather than squeezing them in. I keep a structured, organized schedule — a habit from nursing — so feedings, walks, and medications happen on time, every time. I'll confirm availability before each booking so I can give your pet my full attention. Your pet's safety is my top priority. My home has a fully fenced-in yard, so dogs can play, explore, and take potty breaks securely without ever being off-leash in an open area. I share my home with Murphy, my well-trained Goldendoodle. He's gentle and submissive, which makes him an easygoing companion for visiting dogs, including shy or nervous ones. He also has his own crate, so I can give each pet individual time and attention and keep things calm when a guest needs space.

“Nacho is a very selective Chihuahua who immediately adored Nicole. He exhibited none of the signs of anxiety he generally does when he meets someone new (or even someone he has met several times). He accepted Nicole as one of his special people and behaved as well (if not better!) for her than he does at home. Nicole sent us photos of Nacho napping, taking walks and looking completely adorable while he was in her care; we could see how content he was and were able to have peace of mind while we were traveling. Nacho will definitely be staying with Nicole the next time we need a dog sitter.”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Mariah. From the moment we dropped our pup off, it was clear that this wasn’t just a job—it was a calling. The level of attention, care, and genuine love for animals was apparent. Our dog was treated like family, with thoughtful updates and the kind of affection that made us feel completely at ease while we were away. It’s rare to find someone who combines professionalism with such a big heart, but we found it here. When we picked up our dog, she was happy, relaxed, and clearly adored her stay. We wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book again and are so grateful to have found someone we trusted so completely with our girl. Highly, highly recommended!”

“Kate was wonderful! She kept us updated with photos of Scally while she was there and our dog looked like she was having a great time at her home and on their beach walks. Kate was very accommodating as we wanted to take our dog with us during part of the day and she was easy to work with to coordinate timing on when we would pick up and drop off our dog. Thanks so much Kate!”

“Our 2 pups had the absolute best time with Dee! It was our puppies first time away with a sitter and Dee treated her like her own! She also took great care of our senior dog. She sent us a ton of pictures and videos and put us at ease and made the experience super smooth and easy!”

“Stephanie was great with Gilly. She was very hands on and affectionate... something Gilly demands!!! She sent lots of pictures throughout the stay and kept me updated. It was very comforting knowing that Gilly was in such great hands.”

“MarySue took took wonderful care of my dog! She has a great setup, great communication and typically has other dogs there which was an added bonus! I highly recommend MarySue and I plan to bring back my Kater boy in the future! :)”

About: I’ve been around and caring for pets most of my life. Over the years, I have pet sat for friends and family and have been trusted to walk, feed, bathe, and provide loving care for both cats and dogs. I also regularly walk dogs down the shore. I recently moved into a one-story, two-bedroom home in a quiet neighborhood and am excited to welcome more furry friends into my care. While my yard is currently unfenced, I am committed to providing safe, attentive, and personalized care for every pet. As a lifelong animal lover, I understand the importance of treating every pet like family and providing them with a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I am currently a teacher and have extensive availability through the summer. My schedule is very flexible, allowing me to accommodate pet sitting, drop-in visits, walks, and overnight care as needed. I live with my partner in a quiet neighborhood with a backyard that is currently unfenced. Our home is a one-story, two-bedroom house with a spacious living room and mostly hardwood floors. We currently do not have any pets of our own, allowing us to give your furry friend our full attention and care.

“Really great sitter! I was in a last minute jam and she responded so quickly and sent update photos through out the time my kitten was there. Highly recommend:)”

“A great Wildwood /Cape May vacation was had by All Dolly appeared happy and relaxed after her stay with Janet. I think she enjoyed the attention and company (both human and canine). No signs of anxiety or stress. Great job, Janet and friends!”

“Megan and family took great care of Myka and Storm while we were away! They had lots of puppy play time, treats and snuggles! Will def use again! Thanks!”

“Mike was great with my dog and very easy to coordinate with over the weekend. My dog actually seemed happy when I picked her up, unlike how she acts after time at a kennel. I would definitely use Mike again!”

“Janice lovingly watched our 1-year old dog, Libby, as an overnight boarder for 3 weeks while on extended vacation. Highly recommend. Janice is super attentive, sent daily updated with even pictures of Libby playing and sleeping with other dogs. Upon return Libby was happy, well-groomed, and healthy. Thank you Janice! We will be back.”

“Dory’s first stay with Micki went very well and Dory had a great time. We’re very pleased with the care that Micki provided and have booked Dory’s next stay with Micki. As pet parents, we are very comfortable leaving Dory with Micki and know that she will be safe, loved, and well cared for.”

“Leaving our dog, Mazie with Sandee gives us total peace of mind. She is incredibly reliable and communicative, sending us multiple updates and photos daily. It is comforting to see how happy and relaxed Mazie is in her care. We always return to a happy, healthy dog and feel completely confident that everything is taken care of. We're very grateful that we have found her and highly recommend her to anyone who needs a trustworthy and experienced sitter.”

Wendy N.

“As always, my baby was safe and secure. I’m afraid to say she’s the best because she may never have openings! She really takes your dog and make them hers for the time they are there. My baby ‘Bear’ was a shelter dog so I was extremely worried. Not a problem! She took care of our old man (old Rottie) and after that, I have no hesitations leaving my dog with her. Thanks for caring for my baby like he was your baby!”

Megan T.

“Kelly was fantastic with our Roo! Roo was right at home in their home and both Kelly and her husband gave Roo the special treatment that she as used to. I highly recommend Kelly!”

Debbie M.

“Karen and her husband Sean were wonderful with our Molly. She was immediately comfortable with Karen, and both were so gentle and loving with her. We’ll definitely use them again.”

James J.

“Bailey had such a lovely time at Susan and Robert’s home! I received plenty of updates and photos and felt assured that Bailey was comfortable and well taken care of. Would absolutely have them watch her again”
