“I never worry at all when we leave our young dog with Bob. He truly treats him like he was his own. Very attentive and accommodating. He has a wonderful fenced in yard where our pup can run around to his heart content without fear of getting out. Our Teddy is very social and Bob arranges some play dates with neighboring dogs which is great. Bob always sends pics and updates us throughout the stay. I highly recommend Bob for a stress free time away knowing your pet will be in very good hands.”
“Our pup is happy while at Meaghan's and even does a few things that she doesn't do with anyone else (like get up the couch and cuddle). Meaghan is accommodating of our weird diet for Asha, and always sharing status updates. Can't ask for more!”
“JoEllen was the absolute best with my dog Daisy! The love and care that she received during her stay was above and beyond what I had ever expected. JoEllen made me feel at ease with leaving Daisy for the first time with someone other than a family member. She treated Daisy as if she was her own dog. I can not thank her enough for all that she had done. I will definitely us her again without a doubt!”
“Neli is great! We cannot recommend her enough! She took good care of our dog Toby and sent us regular updates, videos and photos. She communicated any concerns punctually which gave us peace of mind. Her house is super clean and she has a nice backyard with a small fence which was great for our little dog. Toby came home so happy and relaxed. We will definitely book her again.”
About: In 2025 I decided to go full time and start my own pet care business. I am fully bonded & insured! I love all animals but the anxious ones are really where I shine. I will meet your pet where they’re at. I’m Canine + Feline CPR & first aid certified, I have previous experience from working in a grooming salon (not a groomer though!) and am serious about continuing education— I’ve pursued additional certifications as well as a dog training apprenticeship and continue to do so. Additionally, I run an in-home daycare for small dogs. I have an employee who helps me with this and is trained to the same standards. Please reach out with any questions. Since making the full-time pivot to pet care, my schedule now has the flexibility fit around the needs of your pets. For walks, our walk doesn't officially "START" until your dogs paws hit the pavement! Your dog gets the full 30 minutes with no corners cut. This is true for all of my services. I will care for them like they are my own dogs— their safety is my top priority, and I know how difficult the transition can be for pups when their parents are gone and will do everything in my power to make that easier for them.
“I have review Rachel a few times now and every time, she is amazing. She watched our almost 1 year old golden doodle for 6 days and nights. Babka is so happy when she is there. And so happy when she comes home. No issues whatsoever and Rachel sent pictures and videos too. Also her dog loves Babka and that makes us so happy for them both to have a friend to play with for the week. We will continue to use Rachel whenever we can.”
“We left our two pups with Brian for 5 days and he was very caring, thoughtful, and paid close attention to their needs. He noticed my little guy wasn’t being quite himself on day 3 and took the time to call me and discuss what was going on with him which I greatly appreciated. Our oldest one didn’t want to leave and became best buds with Brian. You can tell Brian truly cares about all of the dogs he watches and we will be using him again in the future!”
“Eduardo took great care of my big personality dachshund! I needed last minute care and they were so quick and responsive. They sent photos during the stay and my pup had a great time! Will definitely use them in the future!”
“Nicole was absolutely excellent. Provided tons of feedback, photos, videos, and lots of fantastic communication. She loved my pup just as if it were her own, which really put me at ease for my first stay with her. I couldn't recommend a better sitter for your pup!!”
“Debi did an amazing job with my dog. Between following directions on my specific feeding patterns to giving regular updates (text/photo/video), to giving her good engagement and a safe environment to explore, I would absolutely advocate for anyone to use Debi as a sitter. My puppers came back happy, tired, and safe.”
“Michelle and her family are awesome taking care of our beagle. Communication with her is fast and easy. We recommend her and would board our beagle with her again in the future!”
About: I have loved and cared for animals since childhood. I grew up with my Doberman, Orlik, and later had two cats, Mia and Musya. I have over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for pets and I’m always happy to help friends and others when they need someone they can trust with their pets. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while they are with me I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets the attention and care they need. I can adjust my routine based on each pet’s individual schedule, including feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s usual routine and do my best to keep it consistent. Your pet’s safety and comfort are very important to me. I have a fenced yard and will always provide a clean, comfortable, and caring environment. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, routines, and any special needs. I understand that every pet is different, so I give them the time, attention, and personal care they need to feel safe and comfortable.
“Susana was very sweet with our dog. She cared for him as if he were her very own. She pampered him and showed so much love that I was worried he wouldn’t want to come home (lol). She provided daily pics and updates which meant a lot to us. I would definitely recommend. Thanks so much for taking such good care of our sweet boy!”
“Kevin is great with my dog Mocha. I feel at ease knowing she is in his care. Mocha always comes back as a happy pup, having been able to sniff around the yard and getting plenty of playtime and cuddles”
“I can't recommend Victoria highly enough! From the very beginning, she was reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring. It was clear that my dog was treated like family, and I received regular updates and photos that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She went above and beyond to make sure my dog's routine was maintained and that all of their needs were met. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable to care for your pet, I would absolutely recommend Victoria. I'll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Our dog, Riley, was so well cared for by Josh. He met us at our car for drop off and pick up bc it's tricky to get to his apartment. While Riley was there we received pictures to keep us updated. It made our evening in Philly so much better knowing she was in good hands.”

Great experience boarding with Karolina. Miles received such a loving care, new friend in Milo to play with. Karolina was fast to respond and very flexible and accomodating with drop-off and pick-up. Received frequent updates and pictures. Fenced-in yard was a plus in this brutal cold weather. Very thankful to Karolina and her lovely family and definitely will consider in the future.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Holmdel home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Holmdel.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NJ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
