“Frances did a fantastic job of caring for our cats while we were on vacation. With 3 Rescues inside and 2 TNR's outside, it's not easy to find someone to take that on. Everything went great and she kept us informed with texts & pics after each visit. She made our vacation so much more enjoyable.”
“Kristy is fantastic! Whenever she visits our two cats she gives us detailed updates, pictures and is overall so kind! I feel so at ease knowing she is there taking care of them and understands any concerns I may have. My two shy cats who do not come out for any guests, come out and come close when she is with them!”

“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!”

“Olivia was so sweet and communicative; she gave me all the details of my pup’s walk and sent multiple pictures, which I always appreciate. We will definitely be working with Olivia again!”

“Jon is a cat whisperer. A cat magnet. We were worried about leaving our two 1-1/2 year old cats for 10 days to take a family visit. There was absolutely nothing to be worried about. Even the very shy cat greeted Jon at the door every day and gave him nose kisses. Your pets deserve the care of Jon.”

About: I have worked at a doggy daycare since September now. I have had pets my entire life. I currently have a mixed dog and I’ve had a chocolate lab and a Lhasa Apso in the past. I am a huge animal lover! I work part-time at a doggy daycare, boarding, and grooming facility, and I recently graduated Monmouth University and am currently at Monmouth to study to be a speech-language pathologist. I wanted to spend even more time with dogs, to help the feeling of missing my own! I am always free and will make time to give your pets all the hugs and love they deserve! I would treat your dog the same I would treat my own. I would love and care for your dog because I would want someone to do the same for mine.
“Heather was GREATTTT with my dog. She checked in consistently and responded quickly with no issues. I had no worries about my doggy at all I knew she was in great hands. She paid attention to her very well and updated us through the day. Book her and you’ll see!! 😊”
About: I've always had dogs in my life and always loved them. Whether it was my family, a friend, or any random dog I have always felt a connection with these special friends of ours. I will look after your dog like it was my own, just as I've been doing my whole life. I can dog-sit, do walks and playtime, or just go check on your furry friend while you're away. I work from home full time and am available to attend to dogs throughout the day. I am around during weekdays and most weekends as well. No other pets in the home so yours will have my undivided attention. I have a yard to walk and play with the dog and experience walking small to medium sized dogs.
About: I have a 9 year old Yorkie who I love unconditionally. I also had a 14 year old King Charles Spaniel. I miss our Rusty. They both fill my heart with a lot of joy. I currently work full time during the week. I am available before work and after work for drop ins/ walking your dog. I am available on weekends also. I will make sure your dog is in a safe environment when walking your dog. Every dog likes to venture out of there house for a nice walk!
“Jim was a wonderful fit for us! He came on time everyday, our cats were super friendly with him, he helped with cleaning up the litter and spent time with the cats since we were away for several days. He was very responsive and sent nice updates. I would absolutely trust Jim with watching our cats for future vacations.”

“Wonderful Experience with Kristin! ~* We recently had the pleasure of having Kristin care for our two fur children (Mimi and Luci) while we were away, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience! From our initial meeting, Kristin showed genuine interest and care for our kitties~* Throughout our time away, Kristin provided daily photo updates and descriptions of how our cats were doing. This was incredibly reassuring and allowed us to enjoy our trip knowing our fur bebes were in good hands. Not only did Kristin handle the basics of feeding and litter box maintenance flawlessly, but she also took the time to play and interact with our cats, which we (and they) appreciated immensely. It was evident that she genuinely loves animals and knew how to make our kitties feel comfortable and loved. In addition to the excellent care of our cats, Kristin also took care of our home beautifully. Everything was in perfect order upon our return, which was an added bonus after a long drive home. Overall, we cannot recommend Kristin highly enough. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and obvious love for animals make her an exceptional choice for anyone in need of pet care. We will definitely be calling on her again for all our future pet sitting needs! Thank you again, Kristin! ~* Love, Jessie, Russell <3 Mimi & Luci”

About: My name Julie Barber and I live in the Oceanport area. I have been a dog owner & lover for many years. Our dogs have brought us a lot of happiness & always considered them as part of the family. After losing our golden/spaniel Chloe to cancer three years ago, I didn't adopt again due to Storm Sandy. So with the move out of my home (after Storm Sandy to lift & rebuild) and living with an 'unknown' timeline, I decided to wait a bit. But when friends and neighbors reached out to me & asked if I would dog-sit, I was happy to help. So this began my love of boarding pets. I'm so glad it did. It felt like a very natural transition fell into my lap! I really do enjoy boarding and caring for my many dog clients* To date I have cared for dozens of lovely dogs and their pet families have been wonderful to meet too. 👍🏼😊🐾
About: I have worked at a doggy daycare for a full year, this will be my second year. I have had pets my entire life. I currently have two bichon cavaliers, and in the past I have had Dobermans and Havaneses. I am a huge animal lover! I work part-time at a doggy daycare, boarding, and grooming facility, and I recently graduated Monmouth University and will be returning to Monmouth to study to be a speech-language pathologist. I wanted to spend even more time with dogs, to help the feeling of missing my own two! I am always free and will make time to give your pets all the hugs and love they deserve! I would treat your dog the same I would treat my own. I would love and care for your dog because I would want someone to do the same for mine.
