Dog Sitting Delmar

About: Hi! Here you will find someone who will not only work to be best friends with your dog but also someone always happy to be involved in her community. With that I'm dedicated to ensuring that every moment with your pup is filled with comfort, safety, and love while you're away! My journey with dogs, started from my elementary school days all the way to my college graduation, and has taught me invaluable lessons in care and training. I started out Having cared for two rescued pit bulls growing up and looked after kittens and pups belonging to friends and family. Now with full business that brings me joy more than any retail or serving job could! Not only am I excited to make new fur friends but I'm always happy to help someone out. Who knows, maybe we'll learn some new tricks along the way! Also, I will take the best pictures that I promise you will love! I currently do freelance work from home, so at the moment my availability is very flexible. Every once in a while, my work will require me to go out of town however this will always be reflected in my calendar. Any last minute changes will always be communicated with clients! (While this is not very often I do like to let clients know beforehand just in case. I know a a couple of other amazing sitters, I can refer you if that ever happens) During our scheduled time together, I will happy to go on extra long walks, explore the neighborhood or have a fun time practicing skills you’ve worked on. Your furry fam will spend that day with me and we’ll have lots of fun! Above all I know that every animal (and person!) is unique and is to be cater to in a way that best suits them. When caring for a pet, before anything I will always make sure they are comfortable in their space and with me. (For this reason, while I am open to taking last minute clients, meet-and-greets are strongly encouraged!) During their care, I will always make sure their needs are attended too and follow their care needs directed by the owner. This is not limited to following their food schedule, making time for exercise and play, cleaning after them and of course giving them the love and attention they need! *please note, my apartment is not suitable to accommodate pets at this time. Therefore all overnight services will need to take place at the owners house. I am very open to discussing a system of care that’s most comfortable for you, doggy, and myself :)*

About: I know the stress of boarding a pet or having a stranger in your home. (We have gone through it as well). We will make your time away is as stress-free as possible. No matter the service, you will get regular updates while your pet(s) receive tons of cuddles, belly rubs, scratches, as well as plenty of photos. My husband has joined my team (focusing on walks and drop ins) and myself (overnights, drop ins and walks) allowing us to take care of more amazing pups. All services- house sitting (overnights in your home) quick drop ins (quick in home visits and companionship) walks - (include endless scratches, belly rubs, cuddles and love.) We are parents of a 10 year old goofy chocolate lab. And before him a fearful aggressive German Shepherd. Each one had(s) their very own unique needs. Our calming nature helps you dog(s) relax faster. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions / requests etc. Your dog(s) will be spoiled and in good hands. I promise!! I am retired. So I have lots of availability to take care and love you pet. I can stay over, drop in or simply go on a walk or 2. I spoil any pet I am taking care of. With lots of love, belly rubs and kisses. Safety is my number 1 priority. I will ensure your pet is always taken care of in a safe and loving environment.

“There is no one I trust my pets (cat and dog) with more than Freedom. I can tell she cares deeply for them and goes above and beyond to make sure they are taken care of. I highly recommend her to take care of your fur babies whenever you need someone you can trust!”

“Jenna and Aiden were absolutely fantastic, Cabo was in the best hands and all the pictures while away made us feel he was safe and happy! We will definitely be using them again! Thank you so much for making this possible! You guys rock!”

About: As a loving dog owner myself, I sympathize with the need for customized care while you're away. I am here to help keep your pet’s usual routine, exercise and enrichment activities while you're away. As a responsible professional, I take my commitments seriously. This includes following your directions and caring for your pet the way you prefer. I am a stickler for details and safety. Personally, it’s difficult for me to trust people with my own dog, so I know how important it is to follow an owner’s directions and make sure your pet has the environment and enrichment that they need. Caring for dogs has been a lifelong hobby for me. I grew up with dogs as pets and have watched my friends’ and family’s pets throughout my life. I truly enjoy my time with dogs, which I think helps them be at ease while you’re away. There are very few other things I'd rather do than take a dog for a walk! Pooches keep us humble and remind us to live in the moment. My full-time job is in secondary research, and my favorite "off hours" topic is dogs. Learning about their behavior, needs and evolution is endlessly fascinating to me. While I'm a relative layman (much respect to trainers & vets!), I'm well versed in canine safety and understanding their behaviors and context. I was motivated to work through Rover because my own dog doesn't do well with boarding, and we have found our amazing sitters here (my dog is home with his Dad while I’m sitting for you). So, when I saw the need in our community for more pet care options that take on only one pet (or family) at a time, I realized it would be a natural and rewarding use of my time. Generally, I work 10 - 6 from home / remotely. I can also do midday visits, before and after are also free for playtime and pup care. I keep a safe environment for your dog. Currently, I only offer overnight services in the client / dog's home and do not bring dogs that I don't know into my own home.

“Molly was fantastic on time quick to respond and most of all our pup Pumpkin LOVES her. We definately will be using her again when we can't take our furry baby with us. her again”

“Steph (Net) really stepped up for my family during a tough time. Our dog Luna passed right before a family vacation. We felt guilty leaving our other pup, Howie but Steph spoiled him rotten. He got so many treats, kisses, and walks under her care. There are not enough words to thank her for giving him comfort during this transition. She is kind, punctual, and leaves the best report cards after each visit!”

About: I have, of course experience as a pet lover as a young child, merely watching and walking the dogs, feeding and changing litter/ picking up after the dogs. I never fully had responsibility and experience until I adopted my pal Leo. He is a high energy lab retriever and puts me through every step of patience! All in all, it has taught me to be stern and serious when needed, but flip it around to fun and playful as well. My boy knows to respect me and listen when i give a command. I know with my body language and direct nature will ensure your pups and kitties are loved and watched over. I will give your pets the time and attention you allow and ensure that while you are away there is plenty of fun to be had, and plenty of adventure as well :) I will be enrolling in school online at SNHU and will be taking courses at home. I will have afternoons and evenings off, So, plenty of free time for your beloved furry companions. I have experience with all types of dogs, not so much cats, but i am a day by day learner! I take everything into opportunity to gain a new skill. I will ensure your pet feels safe and secure with me, all of their needs will be met so long as they are in my care! :)

About: I’ve had animals my entire life and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I grew up with dogs, cats, and rabbits, and I currently have fancy rats of my own — so I’m comfortable with both traditional pets and small animals. The majority of my family has always had pets as well, and I’ve regularly helped care for them over the years. Whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, cleaning enclosures, administering basic care, or just making sure they feel safe and loved, I’ve always been very hands-on. Animals are truly a passion of mine. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every animal as if they were my own — with patience, attentiveness, and lots of love. I am currently not working, which means I have full availability and a very flexible schedule. I’m available for drop-ins, quick walks, playtime visits, and overnight house sitting. In the spring, I will be starting nursing school, but I still plan to offer consistent and reliable care with flexible availability. I’m committed to clear communication and making sure your pet’s routine stays consistent and stress-free. I prefer house sitting in your home rather than boarding pets at my own. I believe animals are most comfortable in their familiar environment, surrounded by their own scents, routines, and safe spaces. Staying in their home helps reduce stress and allows me to keep their schedule as normal as possible. My goal is always to make your pet feel secure, calm, and cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve pet sit for multiple dogs, and my pup loves having friends. I telecommute and minimize my time out of the house on petsitting days. Occasionally I have foster dogs and won’t be available for services in my home on those days, but I’ll update my calendar. I live in a great neighborhood to walk dogs. I’m able to use lunch breaks to take your fur baby out for some mid day exercise. I have the sweetest dog to keep your fur baby company. I stay in the same room to make sure everyone is having a good safe time. I’m in a residential area so if boarding, your pup will have safe walks in my neighborhood.

“Sam is great! Very caring!”

Caring for pets of clients I will follow there instructions to a T to ensure both the pet and owner are comfortable and happy with my service that I provide!

About: I have experience with nearly every animal of all ages! I worked at a veterinary clinic as an assistant for 5 years and have been dog/cat sitting for over 11 years. I have lots of experience with working dog breeds, as I have 3. I also work with pit bull rescue very closely. I love to take pictures so I will update you through photos if you wish! Whether your baby is a puppy/kitten or in their golden years, I will love them like my own! Please reach out with any further questions! Currently I work full time and i’m looking to help out during my lunch break (12-1) or before/after my shifts. I also work from home twice a week! I have random days off so feel free to reach out and ask even if my posted availability says i’m unavailable! I require all pet parents to give me a list of special needs/routines of the pet and household so I can follow them. If a pet needs medication I can administer. I treat every pet and home like my own.
