Dog Sitting Carneys Point

About: I have been dog sitting since I was a kid. My neighbors, friends, and family would always reach out to me to care for their dogs while away or just to walk and let them out on a busy day. I have some experience training dogs, grooming them, and giving medications. I have also helped foster dogs! I am active and love to walk and play with pups but can also act as a great companion or company! I work 3 days out of the week. I am looking to care for pets on the days that I am not working. My schedule differs each week. I am looking for something to keep me busy and entertained on those days! I am safe and knowledgeable when it comes to pet care. I am comfortable coming into your home and handling your pet and of course cleaning up their messes! I love being outside, playing and being active! But I also love hanging out and being a companion when your fur baby needs it.

About: I’ve had dogs for my entire life, and currently have two at home. I started volunteering at an animal shelter in middle school for a school project but ended up continuing for three years because I loved it so much. I became a volunteer coordinator and worked closely with the employees. I volunteered at adoption events, dog walks, gave specialized care to certain dogs, and matched potential owners to the right dog. The owner sponsored two dogs for my family and I to adopt. I currently work retail full-time, so my schedule can be a little different. My days off are Wednesday and Saturday so I’m available all day. I’m available Tuesday mornings into the early afternoon. The rest of my availability would mainly be evenings. I make sure that my cat has enough interactive toys to entertain her while my boyfriend and I are at work. We live in a small apartment so we make sure that she gets enough enrichment time so she’s not sleeping all day. My cat gets her teeth brushed in the morning with me and then she gets greenies with her breakfast to help her gum health.

About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of pets in my own home including dogs, cats, birds, and a few reptiles. I love taking my dog to the woods for long walks (anywhere from 5-15 miles) so you can count on me not to slack on your pets needs. Every time I take care of someone else’s dog, I tire them out with my long walks and they always love it. I just recently graduated from high school and am looking for a summer/gap year job. My days are usually filled with going to the gym and walking my dog so pet sitting is easily integrated into my schedule. I am available to take care of pets in my own home as long as they can get along with my dog, although I would prefer house sitting since I live with my parents and two siblings. I have a fenced in backyard and a front yard that my dog likes to hangout in on a lead. I can follow any feeding/walking schedule and rules surrounding your pet. Additionally, I am a pretty organized person and can keep your space clean and well maintained while house sitting. I hope to hear from you soon and I’m super excited to provide my services!!

About: Hello! My name is Lily, and I have been taking care of pets for nearly 12 years. I adopted my first dog over 11 years ago. She had a lot of trauma from before we adopted her, and so have other dogs we have adopted, so I have plenty of experience with anxious “problematic” pets! I have owned 4 rescues in my life which all had their own quirks, and I have also watched dogs and cats for many people in my community. I have watched puppies and senior dogs who need help going to the bathroom. I have watched cats with three legs, cats who always get out, and even lizards! I absolutely love animals and I would love to get to know you and your fur babies. Message me if you have any questions! I’m currently working full-time in Wilmington DE, but unfortunately in this economy that’s not enough! I am available early in the mornings (before 8am), at lunch time, and after 5pm for walks and visits. I can do overnight stays as well, and I am always available on the weekends! Everyone has their own particular preferences for their pet. Some allow pets on furniture or in the bed, and some exclusively use a crate. Some dogs may love walks, while others prefer to run around in the backyard. I have worked with many different owners and pets and I will adjust to whatever is best for your pet! As for me personally, there is a wonderful dog park near my apartment that I take my dog to almost daily, she loves it! She doesn’t love walks and prefers to run around freely, and it allows her to play with other dogs and socialize! Every dog has different needs and I will make sure to meet them.

“Heather did a great job sitting for my cats over a recent holiday! She was always on time and they both loved her. Don''t hesitate to engage her for your next pet sitting need.”

About: I’ve had my own dog for 15 years now. I have done favors for many friends/family/neighbors of mine helping them with their animal while away. I can go on daily walks with your dog. Weekends are my ideal availability, but I can accommodate through the week if necessary, even if it’s just to check in on a cat to make sure they have food and water. I have a fenced backyard for my older dog. We do go on walks daily when cognitively he is able too. I can crate the dog if necessary. I give baths monthly and always make sure to have treats for him.

“Jordyn was very responsive and communicative and took very good care of our cat for a week while we were gone.”

“Super communicative and very sweet to talk with!! Updated daily with pictures and made effort to engage with both of my cats! My cats seemed comfortable with her and I will definitely utilize her again.”

About: Back home, I rescued and cared for several dogs while helping them recover and find loving, responsible families. I have always felt a deep connection to animals and enjoy spending time with dogs of different sizes and personalities. I learn quickly and follow instructions carefully to ensure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own, prioritizing their happiness and well-being. I work part-time and online, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to adapt to each pet’s routine and needs. I am available throughout the week and can provide regular attention, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I understand that consistency is important for pets, and I do my best to maintain their usual schedule so they feel comfortable and secure while their family is away. I personally prefer house sitting because pets are often happiest and most relaxed in their own familiar environment. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, preferences, and any special instructions provided by their family. My goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible while providing attentive, loving, and reliable care. If needed, I may be able to host pets in my apartment on a case-by-case basis, but my primary focus is providing care in the pet’s own home where they feel safest and most comfortable.

About: Ive had family dogs since I was born. Looking to make some extra money while I’m in school. Don’t mind if the dogs pull a lot/ reactive, just need a warning. I’m in school so I’m really only available all day for Saturday and Sunday but other days can work for one walk depending on the time. I would walk them and feed them. I have to study so I don’t mind hanging out at the house/apt in between walks.

About: I'm a single mom with 2 kids and 2 fur babies. I have a lab and a daschund. They are the best dogs. I'm looking to help other people who need some help with their fur babies. I love dogs, I would walk them, play with their toys, treats. I can give them baths, feed them. Whatever needs to be done to take care of them while you are gone away or on vacation. I am up for any dog or even cats. I have had animals my whole life growing up so I'm definitely not scared of any animal. I love them all and will treat them all the way they need to be treated. So I'm available for whoever needs me to care for their pet. I would love to help you out.

“Thanks Heather for taking such great care of Moxie and Stella last night!”

About: I have several years of experience with animals as I have had various animals throughout my life. Since childhood into my adult life, I have had dogs, cats, birds, snakes, a frog, geckos and even a pet praying mantis. Currently I have no dogs but I do have several stray cats we take care of multiple times per day. I pet sit for friends/family/neighbors when needed and even have people pet sit our strays for us when we are away to maintain their schedule and make sure they are cared for while we are away. I currently work day shift(no later than 5pm) Tuesday-Friday and I am off Saturday-Monday each week. I am available as long as I am off work. If you would like your dog walked, I can do that. If you have a fenced yard and would like your dog to go out for potty time and play time, I can also do that.

“Quick communication and takes great care of our pup!”

“Lovely human! We are very anxious about leaving our baby with others after a past poor experience, but we felt more than comfortable leaving her with Rachel! She clearly loves our furbabies and takes amazing photos of them :)”

About: I have trained two vivacious pups from 8 weeks old as well as walked a blind senior pug with diabetes. I love to be outside, keep a clean home, and keep a very close eye on any dog I'm with. I may be a bit of a paranoid dog mom to some but pet safety and happiness are very important to me. I'm currently working part time after moving to Delaware from South Carolina to be closer to my partner's family and new job. I am available to walk during the workdays M-F right now. I can board or house sit any evening. I have a fenced in yard. My landlord lives upstairs with three friendly Pomeranians but I have a separate entrance if your pup is not feeling friendly. I have tile and hardwood floors, no carpet.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs, both big and small, practically my whole life! I know how to be patient with them and I love to explore their fun-loving personalities! Aside from personal appointments and family commitments I have a pretty open schedule, I love spending time with animals so the more time the better! I always make sure the pet is watched in an enclosed area and pay close attention to their body language to ensure they are comfortable and not anxious or overwhelmed.

“Kai and Devon were great! They were very communicative in their Rover cards, and always sent great (and often silly) pictures of our cats. It was comforting to know they were in good hands while we were out of town. Will definitely be looking to see if they are available if we need to run out of town again!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats my whole life. I had my own dog sitting and walking business from ages 14-19 and then stopped dog walking when I adopted my first dog. Now, we have 3 dogs, and I would love to help other families with their fur babies! My husband and I work full time but will be available on weekends. We also can provide services in the late afternoon/evening. My husband and I will both be assisting, and will make time for you and your babies! I work remotely 2-3 times a week. We’re best able to assist with boarding, on Fridays and the weekends. We can dog walk on the weekends and evenings. During the weekday, our availability is more limited given our full time jobs. We can care for a few dogs at a time, if you are comfortable with it! If not, let us know and we can limit our care to just your pet! We have a large, fenced yard! We also have 3 friendly dogs of our own! They are our family! We are respectful of other people’s homes and their family members.

About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs and neighbors dogs and cats since I was 6 years old. Walks, feeding, bathroom breaks, and small training. I’ve also dealt with small to large pets and pets who don’t like people. I love ALL animals and can’t wait to meet yours! I’m currently laid off but actively looking to get back into my career. In the meantime I am available any time of the day. Once I begin working again I will be available mornings, nights and weekends. For safety I will be with the dog/cat at all times. If you have a fenced in yard I will still keep watch just in case. While on walks or dog park visits, etc I will be wary of other animals and people who are also around.
