About: I got my first puppy on my 16th birthday. It was like love at first sight and I was hooked by animals ever since that day. Unfortunately my dog, Teddy was only meant to be here for only 2 1/2 years before he got sent away. Now I long to take care of dogs because it makes me feel closer to him. I offer personalized care that fits your pet’s needs—whether it’s training a playful puppy, supporting a senior dog, or managing special needs. I focus on creating a fun and stress-free experience, with activities like scavenger hunts or relaxing cuddle time. Plus, I treat your home with the same care and respect I’d give my own, so your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away! I work 3 times a week at my local grocery store. Besides the days I do not work I am 100% available. Pet care is at the heart of my daily routine. I make sure to carve out time for walks, play, and snuggles—because I truly believe pets thrive on love and attention. Whether I’m helping a puppy learn the basics or giving a senior dog some extra comfort, I always make sure every pet feels special, loved, and cared for like they’re part of my own family. My home is dog friendly and my backyard as well. I have a big backyard with plenty of grass for the dogs to roll around in and lots of open space for them to sniff around and pee on every try corner they see. I have two parks that’s in one minute walking distance from my house with a huge open field for the dog to play in.

Valeria's exceptional qualities make her the ideal choice for pet sitting. Valeria's deep love for animals is truly remarkable. Your pets will be in the most caring and capable hands with her. Not only is Valeria incredibly responsible, but she's also a quiet and peaceful presence. Your pets will feel comfortable and relaxed with her around. She understands the importance of maintaining a serene environment for both pets and homeowners. She treats each one with kindness and dignity, recognizing their individual needs and personalities.

14. Tatiana K.

“Tatiana was fantastic! We booked her for dog walking the day before we needed her, as it was very last-minute. Despite the short notice, she was incredibly accommodating and even came to meet our pup the same day we booked her. This thoughtful gesture made sure our Etta wasn’t surprised by a stranger when we weren’t home. Tatiana kept us updated when she arrived, which gave us great peace of mind knowing our girl was in good hands. Her care and attention to detail were truly outstanding—we highly recommend her!”


15. Sheilise D.
About: I have several years of experience with dogs. I have pet-sat for family, friends and neighbors throughout this time. Unfortunately I am allergic to cats. I currently am a hybrid worker, therefore I have time and flexibility to petsit. My day consists of making calls and writing notes. (Kinda boring) i know lol I have a friendly 2 year old morkie at home who can be crated if needed. I also have a spare 3rd room as well. But more than likely, everything will be great because my Morkie identifies with being a human, not a dog. I also have a fenced backyard. I live on a dead end block(not too much foot traffic) and I am a couple of blocks form the boardwalk where I anticipate having our walks.
