Dog Sitting in Gibbstown

About: Animals have always had a special place in my heart. My journey started with pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and family in middle school and grew to volunteering at local animal shelters and working in a boarding kennel to currently working as a vet assistant while at school, pursing a pre-veterinary science degree, giving me experience with animals of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments. At home I have a 14 year old beagle/boston terrier named Pepper who I just adore. I cannot wait to share my experience and love for animals with your pets while you are away :) As am currently home from school for the summer, my schedule is very open to care for your pets, so I am sure we would be able to work something out. I cannot wait to spend my summer caring for new furry friends!! I understand that it can be strange for our pets when a new person comes in the house, so I encourage owners to reach out to schedule a meet and greet so I can meet your four legged friends before you are gone, making the process less stressful for everyone involved.

About: I've taken care of many different types of pets for a large portion of my life. As friends and family have brought to my attention, I tend to attract animals big and small in a genuinely positive way. I'm currently in between jobs. I have a large amount of time in my week to spend with your fur baby. I'll be available to care for your little one for most of my day. I have 2 friendly cats in my home alongside an African Grey Parrot. My home is welcoming to all furry friends. I have a large unfenced yard with plenty of room to play and run.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was a kid, and I have raised two dogs myself along with my wife. I’ve also watched plenty of friends pets while they are out of town I work remote, so I often have free gaps throughout the day when I can take my dogs on walks or stop by for a visit. I have two incredibly friendly golden retrievers, but there is also plenty of space in my house along with a yard in case pets need space.

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.

“Lorenzo was not feeling well while I was away and Jessica was absolutely awesome with caring for him and sending me updates. She was always on time, attentive and I could tell she genuinely cared about my dog.”

About: I have been dog sitting since I was a kid. My neighbors, friends, and family would always reach out to me to care for their dogs while away or just to walk and let them out on a busy day. I have some experience training dogs, grooming them, and giving medications. I have also helped foster dogs! I am active and love to walk and play with pups but can also act as a great companion or company! I work 3 days out of the week. I am looking to care for pets on the days that I am not working. My schedule differs each week. I am looking for something to keep me busy and entertained on those days! I am safe and knowledgeable when it comes to pet care. I am comfortable coming into your home and handling your pet and of course cleaning up their messes! I love being outside, playing and being active! But I also love hanging out and being a companion when your fur baby needs it.

“Jillian was so fantastic with our 2 cats! She went above and beyond our instructions, and sent us lots of pics/videos so we had no worries about our babies while on vacation. I can’t say enough good things, we’re so happy to have found her!”

“This was my first time leaving my dog with someone unknown. I was totally against putting her in a kennel as she has never been in that type of environment ….(she’s 11 years old). I couldn’t have picked a better person to watch my baby. Deanna is absolutely fantastic! Not only is she reliable and trustworthy, but she always made herself available in case my scheduled changed. Rylee became quick friends with Deanna and adores her! Deanna consistently sent pictures and updates of their walks and Rylees general well being. This provided such comfort and peace of mind. Deanna went above and beyond. She watered my plants and swept up after coming in and out from walks. She even stayed later than she was supposed to in order to make Rylee feel comfortable. I HIGHLY recommend Deanna. I WILL DEFINITELY hire Deanna again. Jeanne, Mark, and Rylee 🩷”

“Thank you for taking such great care of Lady! We could tell by the pictures provided that she had a great time playing in the backyard and she looks forward to hanging out with you again soon!”

About: Of course I love animals, but what matters more to me is noticing who your pet actually is. Are they the kind of dog who needs to sniff the same corner for five minutes before moving on? Are they a little shy at first and pretending not to care? Do they get excited easily and need someone calm around them? Are they a cat who wants company, but absolutely not too much company? I really enjoy figuring out those little things. I’m gentle, patient, and very respectful of each pet’s routine. I don’t believe in rushing them or treating every animal the same. Some pets need play and attention, some need slow walks and quiet reassurance, and some just need someone kind nearby so the house does not feel empty. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a way that still feels familiar to them. I’m also very careful with instructions. Feeding routines, medications, walk preferences, favorite toys, things that scare them, how they like to be greeted, whether they are allowed on the couch. I want to know all of it. I know these details are not “extra.” They are usually the things that make a pet feel secure. I’ll also send updates and photos, not just to say everything is fine, but so you can actually feel connected to them while you are away. My childhood friend and roommate, Matin, may also help me sometimes, and you may see her in some of my photos. She has had pets since childhood and fostered animals for several years, so she is very used to different personalities, nervous pets, affectionate pets, and animals who need a little extra patience. She is calm, loving, and very responsible, and I trust her completely with animals. Between the two of us, your pet will be cared for by people who genuinely like being around animals, but who also understand that trust matters. I’ll treat your pet with warmth, patience, and care, and I’ll treat your home and instructions with respect. This year, much of my work is remote, which gives me real flexibility in my schedule. That means I’m able to spend unrushed, attentive time with pets, not just quick check-ins, but actual companionship, care, and presence. I can shape my day around walks, visits, feeding times, play, and quiet company, depending on what each pet needs. My childhood friend and roommate, Matin, who is included in the pictures, also helps me out with my Rover schedules. My home is my cat Lilo’s safe little kingdom, so I can’t host other pets here. But I’m very happy to come to your home, meet outside for walks, or figure out a setup that feels easy and comfortable for you and your pet.

“We originally booked Olivia to watch our 2 kittens while we were away on vacation starting the 25th, but realized we'd be gone all day the 24th (the day we left) so we rushed to contact her late on the 23rd. She was very quick to respond and kind enough to add us to her schedule for the 24th at the last moment. She truly made us feel much better about leaving for vacation. And she came as promised and took care of our furry babies.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 4-years old. Since then, I have volunteered at animal shelters, worked at animal shelters, watched dogs for my friends and family, and have owned a dog for most of my life. I adopted my first cat in 2020, and currently have 5. I have a Ph.D. in Biology which helps to understand the internal processes of animals. I am available most Saturdays, Sundays, and some Friday evenings. I enjoy walking and working with dogs and/or dogs. I am outgoing and very approachable, making it easy for me to befriend every type of dog or cat! I work full-time during the week, but my weekends are typically very flexible to walk a dog, feed a pet, or spend time with your animal. Growing up, I would help walk my dogs at least once a day, sometimes three times a day. I strictly adhere to feeding schedules as well as ensure that the pets are let out at the appropriate times. I currently have five cats, whom I clean the litter boxes for at least once a day and ensure they are fed properly at consistent times.

“Jennifer is an amazing sitter! Took such great care of our dogs and kept us updated the whole time. Highly recommend!”

“Madeline is amazing and very compassionate! Took great care of my senior pups. My one senior really can’t leave the house anymore so we did drop in visits. Madeline put us at ease by sending updates and photos every time she checked in. Definitely will use her again! I’ve used Rover twice before and she is the best!”

About: I have always had a soft spot for puppies to seniors, all breeds of pooches.

I am home and available for drop ins, long visits, dog-walks, boarding/overnight visits at your home. I do have a very large fenced in yard for dogs to play in. Multiple crate sizes for dogs and cats along with carriers. For cats- I have multiple cat trees in my home. I do have areas to seperate pets if needed in my 4 story home.

About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and currently have both a dog and a cat for two years at college. Caring for pets has always come naturally to me, and I genuinely love spending time with animals. I’m responsible, patient, active, and attentive to each pet’s needs whether that’s walks, feeding, or simply making them feel comfortable and safe while you’re away. As a college athlete, I’m very disciplined, reliable, and used to maintaining routines and schedules. I’ll care for your pets like they’re my own. currently work part-time online, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week. I exercise daily and love staying active, whether that’s going on runs, long walks, or spending time outside with my own dog, who often comes along with me. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my routine, and I’ll always make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I provide a safe, caring, and attentive environment for every pet I look after. I’m very active and spend a lot of time outside walking and running with my own dog, so I’m comfortable handling pets with different energy levels and routines. I always make sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free, and I’m happy to follow any feeding schedules, medication instructions, or specific care requests to keep your pet safe and happy while you’re away.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs, both big and small, practically my whole life! I know how to be patient with them and I love to explore their fun-loving personalities! Aside from personal appointments and family commitments I have a pretty open schedule, I love spending time with animals so the more time the better! I always make sure the pet is watched in an enclosed area and pay close attention to their body language to ensure they are comfortable and not anxious or overwhelmed.

“Haleigh was so awesome in Cari g for ALL 3 of my babies! She is a god send. I have never used this app before and was skeptical at first but she eased all of my worries and concerns. She checked in with me multiple times and sent me videos and pics of my babies and took care of them as if they were her own. Will definitely be a returning customer and recommend her without any hesitation! Thanks again Haleigh🫶🏻🥰”
