We were nervous to drop our 12 yr old dog with a sitter, but Kate eased our minds immediately by sending us frequent photos and updates over the 4 days we were away. We will definitely use Kate’s services again!!

Mariah is great and really helped us in a pinch, after we ran into last minute travel and boarding issues with a cross country trip. She was so accommodating and flexible and had no problem giving Ollie his meds and some extra TLC! Daily pictures and updates were great. Ollie had a great time at Mariah’s and we’ll be back!

About: My skills include loving treatment, responsibility and efficiency. I love pets and take care of them just like the children I take care for, with love. I’m babysitting 3 hours a day from Monday to Friday for a 5 year old girl and then I’m free to take care of pets. I’m willing to sleep at my client's house to take care of her/his pet. All my life I have loved and had contact with animals but in the last 4 years this has intensified. I treat animals the same way and with the same love as I treat a person. My pets are like my children.

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!

My 2 girls were so happy with Sandee, i could not have asked for better care of my two spoilt pups! I am very grateful to Sandee for taking my girls for the afternoon, which freed us up to do the necessary things related to purchasing a home. I won't hesitate to go back to Sandee and trust her with my precious fur babies. Thank you Sandee!!!!

Our Stella loved her stay with Michael. He was a true gentleman and loves animals. We picked her up almost everyday for a few hours to take her to the beach. Michael was overly accommodating with the 6aam pick ups and odd drop off times. I highly recommend Michael and so does Stella.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 12. I’ve stayed overnight and done check ins as well as the necessary walk. I love dogs and want to keep them company when you can’t and keep them healthy with a good walk! I’ve worked with small and large dogs of all kinds. I am a full time online student, so my schedule is very flexible and I can accommodate most needs. Just let me know what’s best for you! I will ensure to follow all instructions given whether that’s food restrictions, crating your dog, being outside or playing for x amount of minutes etc.

Bob and Susan went above and beyond to make my 13 year old American Eskimo feel at home. He is an overly anxious dog and he did wonderfully with them. My boyfriend went to pick him up and witnessed Monty running around being a dog with several other dogs (I have never seen him do this). We would highly recommend Susan and Bob. Thank you so much

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!

Left my dog Cupid with Brenda for a weekend stay. She has a wonderful home that I know Cupid would love. A huge fenced yard for the pups to run around in and a huge friendly dog to help accommodate your dogs :). I will most likely be booking with her again.

We met Donald a few days before our visit date which was great. Donald was wonderful, you can tell he knows dogs and I was very comfortable leaving my dog there. It was her first experience at a sitters home. He took good care of her and kept us updated on how she was doing. I hope he is available the next time we need a sitter! 4 stars!

AMAZING! Lacey absolutely loved being with Marvina and the entire group of new best friends! She played so hard every day that she literally collapsed every night and slept like a rock! It's so good to have her socialize with so many different types of animals! She doesn't even get opportunities to socialize with just dogs. BEST medicine ever. Marvina is an amazing individual. I don't know how she does it with the entire group of pets she has - but she always looks like it is just another day in paradise! What a wonderful woman. She loves our dog and treats her like one of the family. I can't imagine taking Lacey anywhere else!

Shania was wonderful. We have an older dog who needs warmth and patience and Shania provided these in great measure. I give her my highest recommendation.

Shania was awesome! I knew we were in good hands when she asked if we could come by and bring Izzy for a visit to her house to meet him and familiarize him with her and her surroundings before leaving him. it was such a great idea because when I went to drop him off, he literally lead me to her house and was happy to go in:) Throughout his visit, Shania sent me several photos of Izzy and what they were doing each day and evening. She took him to go on errands with her and long walks which he just loves. I will definitely call on Shania the next time we are staying in Cape May, what a treat!!
