Savana was the best!!! Our dog was in an unfamiliar place so not only did she do her best to make him feel comfortable but we were in the chaos of wedding day and she continuously asked if she could be of any help getting things out the door and into the car. If you’re considering Savana just book her now, she’s amazing!

About: Loving and Flexible Pet professional and Animal Behavior College Alumni finding joy in providing the highest quality in-home pet care and training in your local neighborhood. Our pets mean the world to us. They are family. Their unconditional love is a healing energy to us in this busy world. I received a certification in positive dog training through Animal Behavior College in 2006. I have spent many hours volunteering at our local animal shelter as a trainer and working one on one with clients and their pups in the comfort of their own homes. It is a privilege to provide excellent petcare in the way of walking, feeding and playing with your pets. We have a full house in Vernon, NJ with two chocolate labs (Marshall and Lily) and a dachsund mix. We also have two cuddly guinea pigs named Nessy and Sonic. The most critical decision I make when leaving for a trip involves the welfare of my pets and who will be taking care of them. Exceeding your expectations as a confident, reliable, knowledgable and loving petsitter is my promise to you. Having had multiple dogs, cats, gerbils, hamsters, fish and guinea pigs throughout my life has been a great source of joy and contentment. I am comfortable caring for all pets, large or small. Thank you for the opportunity! -- Beth I am a certified English teacher/freelance writer by trade and a stay-at-home mom to three children (formerly homeschooled who now attend public school) and five fur babies. I am very flexible and will do my best to accomodate your schedule/needs. Safety is a top priority. As a certified trainer, I will use positive cues to keep walks with your dog safe and engaging. They will remain leashed at all times unless you have a fenced in yard for off-leash playtime. Exercise and fun will create relaxation for your pet while you are away. I will provide many pictures and videos of your pet while you are away and keep you informed on the daily.

About: I have been taking care of all types of animals since I could walk. I grew up near farms and ranches in Colorado, had Guinea pigs, dogs, cats, fish, frogs and many more species. I have taken care of 12 newborn Great Dane pups, large breeds and the smallest breeds. I am experienced with animal care, protocols, health issues, CPR and first aide for animals. In the past I have been challenged with aggressive animals and handled them with the best care, patience and understanding. Under any aggressive dog, is a scared puppy. All animals deserve respect and love. As a busy pet parent myself I understand how important it is to care for our pets, as they are apart of our families. I have a full time job and am off on the weekends. I am always available in the afternoons, over nights until I have to leave for work in the mornings, and can do frequent walks. Here we understand that our pets need attention, socialization, and love in order to thrive. I have two dogs of my own at home, a three y/o Great Dane names Eggo and a 2 year old basset hound named Maple. I care for your dogs like I care for mine. We understand that every dog and pet has a specific schedule and needs. We follow their schedules the best we can, we follow feedings, potty breaks and can administer meds if need be.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs, cats and parrots all my life. I’ve had the responsibility of walking them, feeding them and playing with them. Now that I’m post-grad I have a cat of my own and am solely responsible for its care. Ive helped neighbors and friends with their animals when they go away on vacation. I am home for the summer with a part time job and this would fit in perfectly with my schedule. i am able to schedule around my other job. In my home we have a fenced in yard and our dogs are sometimes crated when we leave. When they are not crated have gates to set up safe spaces in the house where they can roam.

Brenda and Francis went above and beyond! They understood my needs and those of my fur babies and soon became friends with two of them. I had warned Brenda the other cat had been feral and does not do well under stress and would most likely hide under the bed and not make an appearance. She made sure she left her cat food every day where she would find it and the boys would not eat it. She left her kitty treats every day for her to find. Of course, the boys needed no coaxing! She sent me pictures every day. I would book her again in an instant!

About: Hey there Dog parents! I have been around animals starting at a very young age. So basically im obsessed with them. I was always the designated trainer for the new pups. And im pretty good at it. Whenever visiting family or friends you can always find me with the dogs. Family and friends have always trusted me with their furry family members. Wether your on vacation or simply your day is overloaded, I'm happy to offer my services to ease your day! Getting an early start on the day during the week with your pups in the morning works with my schedule. If early morning doesn't work with you, I'm also available late afternoon during the week. My schedule isn't firm so if you have any special requests, I would love to work with you and figure something out! I will always put your fur baby’s needs first. Watching their body language is something that I always look out for. Making you and your pup comfortable is what I strive for.

About: Animals are truly my heart. I believe in giving pets one-on-one attention while they’re away from their families because I understand that being in a new environment can sometimes cause stress or anxiety. My goal is to make every boarding experience as calm, loving, and seamless as possible. I have many years of experience caring for and working with dogs. I work from home and create my own schedule, which allows me the flexibility to give your pet the time, attention, and individualized care they deserve. I love taking dogs for walks and getting them outside to enjoy nature whenever permitted. I also have a nice yard where they can relax, sunbathe, and get fresh air. If your pet requires wee-wee pads, I’m happy to accommodate that as well. Your dog is welcome to sleep in the bed with me if that is something you allow at home. I treat every dog in my care like they are my own, with love, patience, and attention because they are family. 💗 Let’s schedule a meet and greet and make your pet’s stay comfortable and stress-free!

This is the first time I have left my boys in the care of someone other than family and I couldn’t be happier. Ashley was not only quick to respond (which is important to me) , but also left me with such peace of mind. She sent me pictures and went the extra step to make sure I felt comfortable. I highly recommend her.
