Dog Sitting Gloucester City

About: On a personal level, I have cared for and been family with dogs my entire life. As I got older, I found my current dog who has transformed my love and respect for dogs into something indescribable. After rescuing her at 3 months old, I have trained and raised her into a beautiful and fully-realized working-line dog. I have experience in advanced training of dogs that ranges from day-to-day obedience to scent imprinting and mind puzzles for high-drive/working breeds that require the mental stimulation. Regardless of your dog's personal needs, I will ensure that those needs are met and addressed in a fulfilling and rewarding way that will leave them feeling loved and satisfied. Depending on the week, you can expect to see me available up to five times in a week! I will do weekends and holidays without question. Every pet has their own specific and individualized needs. This knowledge will help me determine what is needed for your pet, such as longer/fast-paced walks to exercise a high-drive breed or a leisurely stroll for the beloved seniors. Drop-Ins will entail evaluating your pet's needs and addressing them accurately and satisfactorily.

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover with hands on experience raising five dogs from puppies all the way through adulthood. Because I've gone through every stage, from potty training and teething to obedience work and senior care, I'm comfortable with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently have a German Shorthaired Pointer (GSP) who is 6 months old that I've raised since she was just 13 weeks old. She's incredibly sweet, well socialized, and gets along great with other dogs. She's also a great role model for younger pups and helps make introductions smooth and positive. Whether your dog loves playtime, long walks, cuddles on the couch, or just needs a reliable routine, I'll make sure they're treated like part of the family while you're away. My goal is to provide a safe, fun, and loving environment where both you and your pup can feel completely at ease. 🐶 Experienced puppy raiser | Dog lover for life | Reliable, attentive, and passionate about happy pups 🐾 🏡 I Work From Home = More Time for Your Pups! 🐾 One of the biggest perks of booking with me is that I work from home, which means your dog will get plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. While I'm home, based, I'm far from sedentary! I stay very active and love spending time outdoors, going on walks, and keeping pups engaged and happy. Whether your dog is a couch cuddler or an energetic adventurer, I'll make sure they get the exercise, playtime, lounging and love they deserve. In my home, pets enjoy: 🐾 Consistent feeding and potty schedules 🐾 Plenty of exercise and playtime 🐾 A comfortable, dog-friendly environment 🐾 Lots of love, attention, and cuddles 🐾 Supervised socialization with my friendly German Shorthaired Pointer (GSP) I have raised five dogs from puppies to adulthood, so I'm experienced with different ages, temperaments, and care needs. My GSP has been with me since she was 13 weeks old and is incredibly sweet, well-mannered, and great with other dogs. I also want to be transparent that I have a young child in the home. Because of this, I can only accept dogs that are comfortable around children and have a friendly, non-aggressive temperament. The safety and comfort of all family members, both two-legged and four-legged, are my top priority. With that being said, my child knows boundaries and will not be engaging much. When providing care in a client's home, I follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication administration (if needed), and plenty of attention and affection. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, loved, and right at home while you're gone. 🐾💕

“We highly recommend Ellen for all your animal care needs! She was so responsive from the start - and did an excellent job looking after our older dog Ella while we were out of town. We absolutely hope to work with her again in the future if she is available!”

I am perfectly happy to accommodate my schedule for any emergencies! I have 2 American bully/pitbull mixes who receive the most care and love. When it comes to dog walking, I believe in letting dogs sniff around and take their time. I will make sure to to cater to your instructions.

About: I can’t remember a time I didn’t have a pet of some sort under my care! From dogs, to birds, to fish, to frogs, I’ve really done it all! While I don’t have a furry friend of my own yet in vet school, I would love to take yours in and treat them like my own. I’ve already dedicated my life to the wellbeing of animals—why not include yours in that too! I’m currently a veterinary student so my schedule is a bit dynamic! I’m free 24/7 over the summer, but starting in September my schedule becomes a bit more dynamic. Feel free to reach out and see if our availabilities are a match! I live in a residential area with sidewalks (and a park!) perfect for daily walks, and I even have a fenced-in yard for extra play time. No other furry friends currently—so all of my attention will be on your baby!

“Brittany is a great and trustworthy dog sitter! We’ve never left our dogs with someone before and were extremely nervous. Brittany was great at communicating and asking questions. She took great care of the boys and was very patient with them. I would highly recommend her to anyone that needs a reliable dog sitter.”

About: I have had a dogs my whole life, and they are what brings me the most joy in life. My last dog Henry passed away almost 2 years ago and since then I have been fostering, which is super rewarding. I have also been volunteering with PAWS for 5 years, and am there every Friday morning to help care for the pups. I have had experience with all kinds of dogs from 80lb Pitties to teeny tiny Chihuahuas, from strays who are terrified when they arrive at the shelter to ones that have boundless energy and love on everyone. My camera roll in my phone is pretty much consumed with pictures of my shelter pups, who I feel so honored to be able to be part of their journey to finding their forever homes. It would be a privilege to add your fur baby to the long list of dogs that I have had the pleasure of having in my life :) I am a real estate agent, so I make my own schedule, and can easily fit caring for your pup around my showings and office time. I will be more than happy to travel to your home and spend some time with your pup. I can walk them, have yard time with them, play fetch or tug of war, feed them, pet them, and just generally spend some time with them while they wait for their humans to come home. If you have extra things that need to get done such as brushing, nail clipping, medicine to give etc, I can take care of that as well. Basically whatever you need done to make your pet feel comfortable and safe, I can handle. I appreciate the opportunity to be part of your pup's routine.

“Jillian was fantastic with my cat 17 year old dog. I booked in-home drop in visits for my time away from home. My dog takes several medications and my cat has a big personality. Jillian managed both without any issues. I’ll book again!”

Eva P.

“Eileen is amazing! Our older cat is always very anxious and upset when we go on trips and we often come back to find the house smelly from some pee or her just very distressed. Eileen played with her and petted with her and we returned to a house that smelled wonderful and a cat that seemed completely relaxed! She's amazing!”

Timothy P.

“What a wonderful friend to our dog. Felicia was extremely caring to our dog as well as doing all the things we asked and more. We could see in the pictures that our dog was happy and enjoying her time. We are so grateful to Felicia for all her care and attention to detail.”

Samuel M.

“Justin was truly great! My dogs are senior dogs and require a lot of special attention, but he never missed a beat. He sent me plenty of photos and detailed updates about what happened during each visit. It was a relief to know my dogs were being well taken care of. I plan to use Justin again!”

About: I’ve always grown up around cats and dogs; mostly tortoise shell cats, a few adopted strays, and a husky respectively. Most recently I’ve taken care of pit bulls, a malinois, two sibling Jack Russel’s, westies, and an elderly doberman and corgi; to name a few. I always try to keep a calm demeanor, even with high energy dogs. I’ve learned this is paramount when faced with a dog or cat that might have some trust issues or is just generally nervous. Under no circumstance have I been forceful or aggressive, leaning more towards listening and learning from what the dog’s behavior/body language is trying to convey. I’m available for house-sitting on weekends and most weekdays. I am available for daily walks each day of the week before 5:30pm and after 7pm I try my best to be attentive and to honor outside time, even if it seems evident they are getting a bit bored or restless.

“She did so well with my cat waffles, she even checked up with me to see how he was feeling. She was on time, responsive and is a proper vet tech. I have already told a couple people about her and will continue to recommend her.”

About: I think that animals make the world a better place. I’m committed to giving them wonderful care and and a friendly, warm embrace every time! I am currently retired and enjoy spending my free time spoiling my animals and others. Animals are better than humans. I take my dog for multiple walks a day. I go out of my way to ensure that the pets feel safe and comfortable in my presence. That’s what means the most to me.
