About: I have over 6 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. From energetic puppies to senior dogs needing a gentler touch, I’ve done it all. My experience includes walking, in-home sitting, and boarding, so I’m comfortable adjusting to each dog’s unique needs and routine. What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and ability to build trust quickly with dogs and their owners. I’ve worked with high-energy breeds, shy or anxious pups, and dogs that need medication or special care. I’m also extremely flexible with scheduling, which makes it easier for pet parents with busy or unpredictable routines. Whether your dog needs long walks, lots of playtime, snuggles, or just a safe and loving environment while you’re away, I’m here to help—and treat your pup like family. Here’s a strong and thoughtful response you can use for the question “How does pet care fit into your daily or weekly routine?”: --- Pet care is a big part of my daily life and something I truly enjoy.

Since I offer walking, sitting, and boarding, I stay active throughout the week and keep a consistent routine for each dog. I love building long-term relationships with pets and their owners, and I always make sure every pup gets the attention, play, and care they deserve—every single Great question — here's a strong, well-rounded answer for “How do you care for pets in your home and/or your client’s home?” based on the services you offer: --- Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my goal is always the same: to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment that keeps pets happy and stress-free.

“Ciara was amazing with our two dogs! She sent me detailed notes and pictures every time she took care of them so I was not worried at all they were in good hands while I was away. They both take medication which Ciara made sure they didn't miss a day of. My one dog loves playing ball and the other loves cuddling, Ciara spent time with both so the dogs were happier than ever! Thank you so much Ciara!”


“Bridget was great with my 2 cats! My one cat, Finn doesn't always do great with eating while I'm away so I usually check him with my Ring. That unfortunately didn't work so well with spotty phone coverage in Europe. I did get through to Bridget once and she assured me that all was well. The kitchen was clean and the trash was taken out.

About: Hello, My name is Ashlyn Jade, and I am pleased to introduce myself as a provider of professional dog walking and sitting services. Having recently relocated to Cape May, NJ. I am eager to establish connections within the community and care for as many pets as possible. I am in the process of developing a website and obtaining insurance, but my priority is to engage with potential clients and their pets. My goal is to ensure that your dogs and cats receive the proper attention and care they deserve while you are away. I believe it is crucial for pets to feel secure and cherished, even when their owners are not present. It is important to me that you feel confident in entrusting your beloved companions to someone who is both reliable and compassionate. As a dog owner myself, I understand the difficulties of finding trustworthy care at affordable rates. My experience with my German Shorthaired Pointer has provided me with valuable insights into pet care and companionship. I would welcome the opportunity to meet with you to discuss your specific needs and how I can assist you. Please do not hesitate to reach out regarding my availability; I would be delighted to care for your pets. Thank you for considering my services. To stay updated on my offerings, please feel free to follow me on Facebook, where I regularly post about packages and availability. I have been working full-time in pet sitting and dog walking for nearly a year to maintain flexibility and availability for my clients. I find fulfillment in providing outdoor exercise and mental stimulation for dogs, allowing them to explore and enjoy their environment while their owners are at work or away. Engaging with pets in this way is more rewarding for me than extended periods of time working at a computer. I believe that allowing a dog to stay comfortably in its own home is essential to its happiness. It maintains familiar routines and scents and prevents the dog from being placed in an unfamiliar environment without its owners. This consistency helps to regulate the dog's behavior and comfort levels while their owners are away. House sitting can include tasks such as overseeing the property, collecting mail, and ensuring that no unusual events occur.

Sisi did a wonderful job taking care of our cats. She arrived on time, made sure everything was taken care of and gave them some much needed love and attention. Sisi communicated well and shared great photos of our happy cats playing. Would absolutely recommend her for anyone looking someone to sit for their pets. Thanks Sisi!!

Shania was very cooperative. We are vacationing, camping in the Stone Harbor area. She was alble to adapt to the intricacies of neogotiaing the access to both campground and the trailer itself. We were able to do all of this through text, pics and phone calls. Thanks again Shania and Rover for all your help
