Pippa’s first walk with Kate was great! We recently moved into the area and I was anxious about finding a reliable, trustworthy weekday walker. Kate eased my worries. She is very communicative, provided great notes with photos, but most importantly, Pippa was very happy to see her.

About: I have been a pet appreciation magnet as long as I can remember. Even when I am not aiming for the attention, the pets gravitate my way, and i have scritches and belly rubs for them all. I have a rescue of my own for 6+ years now, bichon/poodle mix. Though he had a traumatic start before me, he has adjusted well and is a cuddle bug, and getting better with his socialization with new doggos. I have been a dog sitter for friends over the last 8+ years, when they go on trips. I have experience in minor training, like sit/stay/leash leading, for a few breeds up to 50-70 lbs (no certificates, just repitition and patience). Positive recognition of good behavior and moderate activity (to remedy the bad behavior) when you need me are what I hope to share with your furry family members. I am currently working part-time, so i can set up a schedule of regular pet attention care during part day time hours. Currently I have weekends free if weekend care is requested, though this may change if requests are light. I am working on my house to be able to provide overnight care in the future, making it care friendly for additional furry friends. I have a fenced in, good size yard, and a medium size fur baby of my own to greet stay over friends, though my house needs a little more time for prep before we are ready. I am happy to do drop-ins and day or eve walks at your home, and follow any/all your rules. I respect your needs and want to make sure your fur baby is safe and happy in my care. I keep trainer treats in my car, if we need to practice a few basic commands, as well as water and other care essentials. I have a back seat hammock/cover for the pet's safety when traveling (as needed). I also have a med to large dog kennel I can put in the way back of my SUV if that is preferred for safety and security.

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience and genuine passion for animals. I’ve been a dog walker and pet sitter since I was 10, and over the years I’ve volunteered with multiple rescues and animal organizations, giving me hands-on knowledge with pets of all personalities, sizes, and special needs. I currently own a farm, which means I’m comfortable caring for everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs, shy rescues, and pets with unique routines. I provide a calm, confident presence, and I understand how important consistency, patience, and trust are in pet care. Your pets will be treated like family, every visit. I’m available every week day from 10am to 7pm, and all hours on the weekend. On Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, I am unavailable from 3:00-4:00, otherwise I have a flexible schedule. When caring for pets in your home, I focus on keeping them comfortable, safe, and stress-free. I follow their usual routine, give medication if needed, clean up after them, refresh food and water, and make sure their space stays tidy. I spend quality time with each pet — playing, offering attention, and helping them feel relaxed while you’re away. My goal is to give your pets reliable care and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands.

About: I bring hands-on, real-world experience from working at a professional dog daycare called Fetch, where I regularly supervised groups of 17–20 dogs at once. This taught me how to read canine body language, manage group play safely, and ensure every dog feels comfortable and enriched. Beyond daycare work, I’ve also done individual dog walking and spent time volunteering at local shelters, where I walked dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. These experiences have helped me build patience, confidence, and strong handling skills. Whether your dog is playful, shy, high-energy, or needs a little extra reassurance, I’m committed to creating a safe, positive, and fun experience for them. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I dedicate Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays entirely to it. I treat pet care like a full-time responsibility on those days, making sure I have plenty of time for walks, play, feedings, and attention. When I’m caring for someone’s pet, they become my priority, and I make sure their routine is followed and their needs are fully met. In my own home, I’ve cared for my dog since he was a puppy—we started with crate training and now he enjoys playtime in our fenced yard and daily walks. Because of that experience, I’m comfortable with different routines and training styles. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m very flexible and always follow the routine their dog is used to. Whether that means crate time, specific walking schedules, certain feeding instructions, or favorite play activities, I make sure to care for their pet the same way they would. My goal is to keep each dog comfortable, safe, and happy by sticking to what feels familiar to them.

About: Hi, my name is Kayley. I am 26 years old, and I worked at South Jersey Regional Animal Shelter. I had worked with this company for over four years,and love working with all animals. I spend most of my time with dogs and I enjoy taking care of them. Most of my duties at the shelter include feedings, giving meds, cleaning after them, socializing, playgroups with other dogs, and loving ever single baby! I have had two dogs of my own, and am experienced in caring for and walking dogs. Because I have been working with animals for so long, I am skilled in knowing the ins and outs of dogs, and their needs. Can’t wait to be working with you and your baby! Because I do not work full-time, my schedule is completely free and flexible to focus entirely on whatever your pet needs. I am fully available to accommodate everything from quick daily drop-in visits and midday walks to dedicated, overnight in-home house sitting. Since my time is wide open, I can easily maintain your pet's exact daily routine, provide constant companionship, and handle last-minute schedule changes or extended care with ease. Personally prefer not to take care of someone’s pet in my home. Just cause meeting someone new can be stressful for an animal otherwise being in a environment they are already familiar and comfortable in!

Kevin was prompt to responding to my request for a dog walker. On the same day we set up a date for meet and greet. I received a text message from Kevin that he was on his way. My dog Rory is a 100 pound English Labrador and met Kevin at the door. Right away they both clicked. Kevin told me he had 2 dogs and he was very attentive to my boy. We agreed on the dates and time and I completed the process online. On the first day Kevin texted he was on his way. Rory was excited to go for his walk and was happy as evidence by running to me and wagging his tail when he came back. Every morning Kevin came, Rory met him at the door. I was very pleased with how friendly Kevin was and the attention he gave to Rory. I received 4 adorable pictures of Rory from Kevin while they were on their walks. I definitely recommend Kevin for your dog care needs. Thank you very much.

About: I stand out because I create a calm, cozy, home-like space where every pet feels safe. I work from home, grew up with dogs, and have three sweet cats—including one loving tripod kitty—so I’m very patient and experienced with pets who need extra understanding. I give puppies, seniors, and nervous pets gentle, attentive care. I work from home full-time, so pet care fits naturally into my day. I’m home for feedings, playtime, potty breaks, and attention from morning to evening. In my home, pets are welcomed into a calm, comfortable, and supervised environment. I work from home full-time, so pets are rarely left alone and always within sight. I have three friendly cats—including one sweet tripod kitty—so I’m very experienced with gentle handling, slow introductions, and creating safe spaces for pets with different needs or abilities. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly home, follow feeding schedules, support special routines, and prioritize your pet’s emotional comfort. Whether in my home or yours, I make sure pets feel secure, loved, and understood. Your pet’s safety and well-being always come first
