About: I had a dog for 12 wonderful years! Since he’s passed, I live a travelers lifestyle which makes it hard to own a pet of my own though I’m always checking local SPCA’s just for fun! I’d love to meet and play with other people pets in between traveling. I am 34 years old, with a bachelors in education, and for 10 years was operating a waterpark in New Jersey that recently closed its doors. This is why I am between jobs and I plan to take a summer off of corporate world employment! I’m accountable, take instruction well, and love all animals of all different colors shapes and sizes! I worked as a dog walker/sitter in the past and then got busy with other jobs. This is my there is a large gap between the last reviews and services. Can’t wait to meet you and your furry friends! I’m currently not working, taking the summer off before joining the corporate world again! I plan on doing a lot of traveling but looking for income while also doing something fun! I just moved into a new apartment, it has a large yard, though it’s not fully fenced in, however, I do have a makeshift fenced. I can put up to make it completely fenced in. I have no other pets, I am a very clean person he’s not afraid to get things dirty and clean afterwards if there are any whoopsies.

I prioritize your pet's comfort and happiness by treating them as if they were my own. My approach centers on maintaining a safe, stimulating, and consistent routine, whether that involves strict adherence to dietary schedules or managing high-energy play. I hold certifications in Experience with senior pets and Experience with special needs pets. I remain calm during emergencies, prioritizing quick, responsible decision-making while keeping you fully informed. I am punctual, kind, and empathetic, and I truly enjoy helping shy dogs come out of their shells. With my own reliable transportation, I am ready to provide your dog with the dedicated care they deserve. I look forward to treating your beloved companion with the same love and attention I give my own. I have a flexible schedule and am available for dog walks throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I understand that every dog has different needs, and I’m happy to work with your schedule to provide reliable, consistent walks and plenty of exercise, attention, and care. Animals have always been a part of my family, and I care for every pet as if they were my own. My childhood dog lived to be 15 years old, and I was there to help care for him throughout his life, especially in his senior years when he needed extra support. He was truly my best friend and taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and attentive care. Today, I care for my own dog and cat every day by feeding them, giving them attention, and making sure they are happy and healthy. I walk my dog before and after work and throughout the day as needed, and I enjoy spending quality time playing with both my dog and cat. I have a genuine love for animals, but dog walking is something I especially enjoy. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities, and I will treat them with the same care and attention I give my own pets.

About: Hi, I'm Kaylee! I have 8+ years of hands-on experience caring for pets and genuinely love working with animals. I currently offer dog walking, cat sitting, and drop-in visits for both dogs and cats. I've owned cats my entire life and currently have a cat of my own, as well as a large, energetic black lab. Because of that, I'm comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including those who pull on leash, are high energy, reactive, nervous, or still learning their manners. In addition to dogs and cats, I have experience caring for birds. I've owned parakeets and currently own a cockatiel. I'm also comfortable caring for small pets such as hamsters and guinea pigs and am happy to follow detailed care instructions to keep them comfortable and safe. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule and am available for most morning, afternoon, and evening visits. I care for pets in their own homes so they can remain comfortable in a familiar environment. Whether your pet needs walks, feeding, playtime, medication administration, litter box cleaning, or simply some extra attention, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and attentive, and I always send detailed updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. I’m a stay at home mom so I have a good amount of time on my hands. Most days are open in the morning, afternoon, and evening except Wednesday and Friday evenings. I care for pets in their own home so they stay comfortable and stress free. I stick to your routine, handle walks, feeding, and playtime, and make sure they get lots of attention. I also send updates so you always know how they’re doing.

About: Hi there! 🐾 My partner and I both grew up around dogs, have had our own dogs, and are foster dog parents. We'd love the opportunity to cuddle and take the very best care of your pup. Think of us as your dog's godparents! We know how hard it can be to leave your fur babies. We would love to ease that worry for you and send photos/videos and keep you updated throughout the stay! We both work from home so we will stay with your pet. With our flexible schedule, we'll be able to keep to your dog's normal routine and schedule with walks, potty, meal time, and play time! We have crates, beds, and plenty of treats and toys. We also have a huge fenced-in yard where we can play fetch and run around. I believe dogs need to be stimulated mentally and physically. In addition to getting good exercise through daily walks, I also have lots of toys and balls, sniff mats, lick mats, and food puzzles. I also enjoy training dogs so your dog may come home having learned a new trick!

“Bree is always on time, does a full walk, takes photos, knows our two dogs (they both love her), and is so good at all of this that she gets it done with no disruption to our work from home situation. She is exactly what we have been looking for.”

“Andrea is doing wonderfully with our dog Bear. Bears a little shy around new people but she took right to Andrea and is excited every time she comes to our home. Andrea is also incredibly flexible and a joy to work with. Highly recommend.”

About: My first memory was reaching out to pet the family dog and by the age of 8 I was the main care taker and trainer of our family pets (Sheltie, Poodle, Akita, Bearded Dragon). By 14 began pet sitting ranging from puppies at 8 months to senior dogs at 17 years old. I have cared for many of my neighbors pets that includes cats, hedgehogs, and hamsters. As I got older, I became braver and currently have two snakes. I am home full time and typically start my day with a morning walk which is always more appreciated with a four legged friend or two. In my care I offer daily updates and photos. For check-ins I typically stay for an hour to ensure the pets are well taken care of as well as provide extra walks or play time for the more energetic.

“Rachel takes care of my dog as if he were her own! He is always happy to see her and go on his walks. Rachel gives me peace of mind when I’m working and is very trustworthy!”

About: I’ve had dogs all of my life. My father trained dogs in the army and continued throughout his life. I currently have 3 rescue dogs, Marley (lab), Marshall (terrier mix), and Chester (Chihuahua). I also have 3 rescue cats, Tiger (orange tabby), Tabby (calico), and Boots (3 legged tuxedo). Other pets I have had/cared for include Birds, hamsters, fish, hermit crabs, & axolotl’s. I’m also a mom of two! I’m a special education school teacher on summer break!! My youngest daughter is 11, so I have more freedom and spare time on my hands. I love being outside and meeting your animals. Any pet that enters my home or if I enter theirs will be treated as if they are my own. Being that I am a schoolteacher all of my clearances are up-to-date. I have a large fenced in yard. My pets are used to meeting you animals and typically very friendly!! I’m also very used to cleaning up any kind of pet messes as well as administering any type of medication needed.

“Autumn did a great job taking care of my boy. She provided a walk once a day for at least an 1/2 hour. Provided pictures each day. Will be booking with Autumn again.”
