About: I have taken care of pets others and my own for 22 years plus. I am a trained behaviorist, and I have worked with children and pets to create behaviors that feel good for both of us. I am an entrepreneur and have scheduled clients, that are either local or via zoom. I also work with several children. I have space in my schedule for boarding and animal care, only one animal at a time. I have a fenced in yard, I have a car, and live near the boardwalk for longer walks. I am happy to sit or visit in your house and keep your pet company, as well as board small dogs. And well behaved bigger dogs.

About: I've got the " Mommy can I have A puppy?""experience. My daughter got a puppy when she was 5 years old for her birthday Guess who took care of it? Me. Then I took her trick or treating at 8 years old and instead of of coming back with candy, we came back home with a pit bull puppy cause this guy had a rope around his neck trying to get rid of it. Guess who took care of it? Me. Then 10 years ago she wanted another puppy. She ended up getting 2 , a sister and brother. She promised she would take care of of them and be responsible for them. Guess who took care of of them? Me. She's 30 years old now and nothing has changed. I'm still the sole care giver. Need I say more?

During the walks, Becky always kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in good hands. She also went above and beyond by bringing water and treats for my dog, which was a nice touch. Overall, I highly recommend Becky to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring person to take care of their furry friend. I will definitely be using her services again in the future!”
