Dog Sitting Howell

About: I have had dogs all my life. I'm retired and the best way to spend my time is with dogs. I also have experience grooming dogs: wired-haired breeds are my specialty - I do stripping). I'm pretty much available any day / time. Afternoons and nights are best, but don't worry, I have your dog covered based on your needs. My current dog is an English Bull Terrier (Spuds MacKenzie or the Target dog). I have a fenced yard and but also take her (Daisy) on short/long walks daily. I can likewise walk / play with you dog as you wish. I have also taken/passed the NJ Animal Control Officer course/exam.

About: Hello! I have been an avid animal lover my whole life. I chose to pursue my dream of caring for animals and graduated with a Bachelors degree in Zoology. Having been an animal care specialist at a wildlife safari for several years, you can expect all of your animal's needs will be met to the highest standard. I am trained in administering medications (injection and oral). While not a certified dog trainer, I have experience training a variety of different species. Your precious pooch will be staying in a ground level apartment with access to a yard. Endless adventures and cuddles will keep your pet happy and content while being away from their owners. If you have any questions do not hesitate to contact me. I am not currently working so being that I am home all day, I am available to tend to your dogs needs 24/7! Walks, potty breaks, play time, I will be on your dogs schedule and can send you updates as many times a day as you request. Your pets safety and comfort is my highest priority. In my home they are free to roam where they would like, while outside they will always be leashed. If they feel more comfortable having a crate in home we can arrange to have that for them as well.

About: Lifelong cat expert and passionate dog sitter! Even though I’ve grown up, watched, and cared for cats since I was born, I have then transferred this experience to the pups around me. Whether in my family or in my close circle of friends, I extend my compassion and care to all animals In the morning when I’m up for work I feed my cats. When I have free time before I leave I play with them, and of course when I come home I give them a warm greeting. They are fed again at night and I make sure to give them all the snuggles, love, and playtime inbetween it all. My cats are STRICTLY indoor cats and do not leave the house. They are trained to run away when the door opens but Luna sometimes gets curious about outside

“Merri was amazing and went above and beyond our expectations! We appreciated her thorough updates, photos, and excellent communication. Our cat loved her as well :)”

“Great experience. Our dogs are not the easiest to handle and max did an amazing job. This was one of the longest trips we have been on away from our pups, and they were in great hands. Would book again!”

Ty D.

“Monica provided excelent care for my babies. She found a rapport with the dogs, so despite our absence, they remained playfull and calm, they ate, and did not destroy anything in the house. Usually, they are real monsters when we leave for more than few hours.”

About: I’m not just a pet sitter — I’m a lifelong animal lover with firsthand experience caring for many different pets. As a proud Golden Doodle and cat owner, I know how important it is to give animals love, patience, and consistency. I bring the same care to your pets as I do my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and part of the family. With years of experience and genuine passion, I provide more than just walks and boarding — I provide peace of mind. As a lifelong animal lover and full-time educator, I bring both responsibility and compassion to pet care. I have a Golden Doodle, a cat, and years of experience with animals of all kinds. My schedule allows me to provide care on weekends, as well as during the week for pets who do not require full-time, mid-day attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. When boarding with me, your dog will enjoy a safe, fenced-in yard and the companionship of my friendly Golden Doodle. I provide plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection, while also following your dog’s routine and specific care instructions. Your pup will get the attention they need to feel comfortable, happy, and at home.

About: I’ve always loved dogs and always wanted one growing up. We finally got a dog before I went to college and ever since she has been an integral part of our family. I love taking her on walks around town and we love playing on the beach! I am currently home from college and looking to make some money while spending time with dogs and I am flexible during the week to go for walks throughout the day. I am not a pet sitter but I will make sure your dog gets back home safely after our walks, that their poop is cleaned up, and that they had some good exercise!

“She did such an amazing job watching my 2 dogs and cat. I appreciated all of the photo updates I received. Everyone seemed well taken care of while I was away. Would recommend her 1000x.”

“Gillian was a lifesaver for me and my girls as I had to go away for about two weeks. She provided daily updates, pictures, and made sure the girls were well taken care of! I 100% recommend her and will reach out to her again if I need another sitter!”

About: Dependable and attentive dog walker who genuinely loves spending time with pups. I bring patience, energy, and a caring touch to every outing. Rain or shine, we walk! I work from home in Wall Township. I’m currently launching a new business and find that taking your dogs for walk breaks makes the “work from home life” more enjoyable for me. I work with you to understand the routine that makes your dog comfortable, and we work from there. My goal is to provide you with a holiday that has limited friction and no concern over care for your furry family member.

“Megan is wonderful with our cats, we feel very comfortable leaving them in her hands when we are gone. She goes above and beyond to make sure our cats are happy and always keeps us informed with great updates and truly adorable and amazing photos. Could not ask for a better pet sitter!”

About: Experienced pet caregiver with over 5 years on Wag and a background in animal shelter work. I’m dedicated to providing loving, attentive care for your furry friends, ensuring they feel safe and happy while you're away Im currently working part time meaning I have plenty of time to fill with some quality time with animals! I also hop on these apps when traveling, and really whenever I have some extra time in my day. I have no pets living with me currently so this means plenty of space for one who needs a temporary home :) I have boarded dogs, cats, and have done sittings at others as well. Being a hiker and active means plenty of walks throughout the day

About: With 10+ years of experience caring for my own dog as well as cats of all temperaments, I am eager to offer quality, safe, and attentive care to pets in my area. I know how stressful it can be to have to find quality animal care last minute, but I absolutely love animals and hope to be able to take some stress off of both owners and their pets. I love working with big dogs and high energy breeds, but am open to caring for all kinds of animals! My full-time role is as a Park Ranger, so I have an extremely flexible schedule ranging throughout the day. I typically know my schedule for the month by the 15th of the previous month and am willing to work around everyone’s schedules to find the sweet spot of what works best for us. ✨🐴 Alongside experience with dogs and cats, I have experience caring for horses and pack mules! I have veterinary science experience in Equine Hoof & Limb from college, as well as several years of experience caring for therapeutic riding horses, National Park Service pack mules and horses, and show horses. I am a full-time park ranger with a very flexible schedule. I’m not trapped in a strict office schedule and have my month planned out by the 15th of the month prior, so I can absolutely plan care with a shorter or longer term notice. Due to my prior experience caring for pets and with veterinary science education, I am a very careful caregiver. For all animals, but especially for cats, I will regularly make sure I am not bringing anything in that could spread communicable diseases or endanger the animal in any way. With all animals but specific with dogs, they will not be left unattended to roam even in fenced areas that they are used to - I know how beloved animals are to our families, and I will always have an eye on your pet while they are in my care! Additionally, I will not bring in any other animals or guests that are not agreed upon with the owner beforehand - I believe that if you hire someone to watch, walk, or care for your pet, you deserve 100% clarity over who they are, what their experience is, and who/what is entering your space.

If your pet needs meds or any special care just let me know and we will get it done!! I love to interact with your pups and kitties!

About: I have experience as a vet tech and a shelter care worker. I have worked with animals for about 10 years and have personal experience for longer. Currently work full time but from home so my schedule is flexible for day walks and visits. Overnight care available as well and can discuss staying to work in the house. I use a fear free and training based approach to care. As a prior vet tech I have medical experience to deal with medically complex pets.

About: I've taken care of various types of pets like birds, cats, and dogs. My experience mainly comes from family and friend requests; however, I am very passionate about taking care of pets and do my best to make sure they are happy! I have a rescue dog who I have trained to not chew on shoes, do some tricks, be gentle when grabbing treats, and to wait when getting food. I'm currently enrolled in an in-person summer class which means that on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, I am only available after 1pm. I also work part-time over the weekends so my schedule varies. Despite this my schedule is pretty flexible and I am able to move around work hours to make sure your pets are well taken care of! :) While I do not offer boarding in my own home, I will make sure your pets are well cared for in the comfort of your home. Whether that includes indoor and outdoor playtime, walks, feeding, or extra attention and affection, I will make sure your pets receive the care they need. I love animals of all kinds and will treat your pets with patience, kindness, and responsibility. I will also keep your home clean and tidy while ensuring all instructions and routines are followed carefully.

About: Im 22 years old with 16 years of hands on experience caring for dogs, including four French Bulldogs. I have light training experience and am comfortable with walking, feeding, administering medication, post surgery care and daily enrichment. I treat every dog like my own and focus on safety, patience and positive interactions. I have a very flexible schedule which allows me to easily fit dog walking into my daily routine and be consistent and reliable with care. I follow each pet’s routine making sure they are fed, walked , exercised and cared for. I prioritize safety, cleanliness and comfort while keeping the owners updated.

About: I love animals I have been taking care of animals since I was a kid. Making sure every animal is loved is very important to me. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine through planned, consistent time set aside for each pet’s needs. On a daily basis, I schedule time for feeding, providing fresh water, walks or exercise, cleaning litter boxes or waste areas, and giving attention, playtime, and companionship. I also monitor pets for any changes in behavior, appetite, or health. On a weekly basis, I incorporate deeper cleaning of pet areas, restocking supplies, grooming as needed, and reviewing any special instructions from pet owners. I plan my schedule in advance to ensure pet care responsibilities are met reliably without interfering with other commitments. Pet care in my home and/or a client’s home is provided based on the specific service requested and the individual needs of each pet. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding schedules, portion sizes, medications, exercise, and routines. In a client’s home, I ensure pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment by maintaining their normal daily routine, providing fresh food and water, cleaning litter boxes or waste areas, and offering companionship, playtime, and supervision. In my home, pets are kept in a safe, clean, and calm environment with appropriate supervision, regular feeding, exercise, and rest. I prioritize the pet’s safety, health, and emotional well-being at all times and communicate with owners as needed to provide updates or address concerns.
