Dog Sitting in Mantoloking

“I am very impressed with Rachel as my rover sitter. She always came on time each day. I looked forward to get updates from Rachel on my cat Coco. I felt so relieved while I was away on vacation.”

“Dawn was great with the cats. She was very communicative throughout the week. We are very happy to have found someone we can trust with our kitties!”

About: My schedule’s open and flexible so I can truly meet the needs of each family I work with. Some days could start with an early-morning 🔆🐾 walk to get tails wagging, while others might be filled with midday check-ins, playtime in the yard, and even overnight 🐕💖 snuggles for pets who need extra company. I’m currently available every Saturday evening, with open availability Sunday through Tuesday, giving me plenty of time to dedicate to your pet and their unique routine. On my walks, I could work on leash skills and basic obedience to help your pup feel stay confident and well-mannered. I also have experience caring for high-energy dogs who need extra exercise, as well as special-needs pets who may require a gentler pace and more patience. I’m a strong multitasker, attentive to detail, and always make time for excellent communication—sending daily updates, notes, and pictures so you’ll never have to wonder how your pet is doing. With First Aid knowledge and Emergency Preparedness, you can trust that your furry loved ones are in safe, capable hands every step of the way. My schedule is open and flexible to fit the needs of pet parents. Whether it’s early-morning 🐶 🐾 walks, midday drop-ins, or overnight care, I can adjust to your pet’s routine. I’m currently available every Saturday evening and have open availability from Sunday through Tuesday. With plenty of time to dedicate, I’ll make sure your pets get the attention and care they deserve while working around your schedule. I always prioritize safety, trust, and comfort ☀️ in every service I provide. In a client’s home, I follow instructions carefully, keeping pets secure, happy, and at ease. When caring for pets in your home, I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment where they can relax and feel comfortable. I use owner-provided leashes for secure walks, monitor interactions closely, and follow all dietary or medical needs with precision—because your pet’s well-being is my top priority. With over 25 years of hands-on experience, I’ve cared for pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from energetic puppies 🐶 to senior companions. Throughout the years, I’ve shared my life with many wonderful dogs, including Standard Poodles, Shih Tzus, Dobermans, German Shepherds, Cocker Spaniels, Schnauzers, Labradors, and Beagles. I also bring a lifetime of cat care experience, having raised and loved breeds such as Persians, Himalayans, Torties, and American Shorthairs. 🐈‍⬛

About: I’ve always had dogs until I had small children. So for right now i am not able to have dogs until they get older. But i enjoy playing with dogs and relaxing with them. Dogs are truly a great best friend. They are always there to help you feel better so as dog care givers we should be happy to return the good deed. Dogs have needs just like humans so it is important to do what you can to help dogs of all sizes and ages feel comfortable and happy. Pet owners love their dogs and sometimes don’t have the time in the day to care for them. So I am happy to lend a hand and help give piece of mind to those owners. I am able to assist with pet needs through out the day and am for the most part flexible during the week and most week ends and evening. I will be able to provide a safe environment at your pets home that is created for them in their space so they always feel comfortable and relaxed.

“I would 100 percent recommend Victoria! My puppy was in great hands while we were away. He loved his walks and I loved every update!!”

About: I have experience watching dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. I have watched reactive dogs as well as some dogs with disabilities. I am very passionate, communicative, respectful, and flexible sitter. I am currently working a full time job but work remote 3 out of 5 work days. This allows me to be fully attentive to your dog on those remote days. I’m also available during the weekends and in the evenings! I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your pooches company. With that being said, I can easily separate them as well if need be. Additionally at a clients home, communication, making your dog comfortable, and safety are my number one priorities.

About: Hey there! Luckily, there has always been a dog in my life. The longest that I have gone without a "best friend" is ten days. There's really nothing that compares to the love and companionship that having a dog in your life brings. Every dog that has been in my family, or that has been my own, had the chance to live into old age. I know how to deal with puppies and senior dogs who may unfortunately have hip dysplasia or arthritis. My girl Agatha was blind by the age of four, so I had the chance of being her eyes for six years. My sidekick now is Sofie, a 100lb lap dog! She has two cat brothers and they're all in love. Anyway, I begin nursing school in September and I would love to take care of your cherished pets as a means to help me get through the program. I'm ready for a meet and greet anytime. Taking care of your loved animals is going to be my part-time job. This job is going to help me get through nursing school while doing something I truly enjoy. I would care for your pet exactly how I care for my pets, or any other animal. We can walk, play, or just keep each other company.

“What can we say, we loved Kate from the moment we met her. When she came to the house to meet Willy, she sat right down in the floor with him, petting and scratching behind his ears. Very good communication and went above and beyond when we ran out of his 2 prescription meds and went to pick them up for us. Definitely will be using Kate moving forward.”

About: I have been in the animal field since 2017. I am currently a veterinary technician and have been for 4 years now. I am comfortable with both cats and dogs - I’ve taken care of multiple animals throughout my life. I am comfortable giving medications, and have a better understanding of when something may be off with your pet. I understand that they’re more than just animals - they’re family. ❤️ I work full time hours during the week, but could be available evenings some weekdays if needed. I’m mostly available on the weekends right now. But I’m sure if we chat we could work something out depending on your needs! I do not have the capacity to board any animals right now, but I am open to doing extended stays or overnights at your place if needed!

About: I was so fortunate to grow up with pets of my own. When I was in college, I had several families who I taught piano to their children ask me to walk their dogs and also to stay at their homes while they traveled. I naturally enjoyed it, and the families started referring me to other people. I have had the opportunity to care for dogs, cays, birds, fish, bunnies, ferretts, and reptiles. I'm now a mom to 3 children who also love animals. We have a 5 year old cockapoo who thinks he's one of the kids, because he's such an important piece of our family. I have had the opportunity over the years to gain experience working with puppies and kittens through geriatric age. I have also helped families with general training to help them keep up their routine. I am not a trainer. I am however happy to utilize commands you share with me to provide the best relationship and care for your pup. I am very fortunate to have a very flexible schedule which has allowed me to grow wonderful relationships with local families I have a very flexible schedule and can usually take same day appointments. I'm happy to help however I can. I feel fortunate to have the flexible schedule that I do! I prefer to care for pets at your home. It is important to me to know all information that will keep your pet safe! What is your pet's routine like? How do they react to new people? How do they react to a new person when you're not around? Do you have a fenced in yard to play in or prefer only a leashed walk? What are words that you use when another dog is approaching or if you don't want your dog to try to chase a squirrel? Do you provide positive reinforcement? Are you currently working on any training? Has your dog ever shown aggression? How friendly is your dog with other dogs? These are some examples of the things it is very important for us to discuss so that I can ensure I am fully prepared for any situation as your pup and I become new friends and get to know each other.

About: I have 3 dogs of my own (German Shepard, Lab mix & Maltese) A dogs love an affection is one of the purest & unconditional joys in life. I know how special dogs are to a family and I would treat your dog(s) like my own! I am a Health & PE teacher and I am available in the early afternoons during the school year & the summer.

I would be happy to take them on walks, play fetch or simply just drop in to check on them :) My dogs all have their own personalities, and I work with them individually & in training classes to always keep them learning and reinforcing their training. They love to play, swim, go on walks, and snuggle up next to us. For your dog, I will ask questions to help learn the dog and their individual personality to keep them happy, to feel safe & loved. I will be happy to take him/her on walks, runs, the park, whatever activity while under my care!

About: Ive had a variety of animals my whole life from exotic animals like snakes and turtles to dogs, cats and rabbits! I have worked at a dog grooming/sitting facility for 2 years, now. I have worked with multiple breeds and ages. Great at bathing and administering medicine when needed. I now have a lot of free time to care for animals, I have a baby at my house so I am home at all times and am able to go out and walk dog’s whenever:) I would care for my clients pets as if they were my own, and I would ask them to give me a list of specifics i need to know about their pet and how to handle them properly, every pet has a different personality. Can work with any type of animal and any personality:)

“Jennifer visited our two dogs while I was away. She came on time and stayed longer than needed to. She updated me and my sister during the visit and let me know if there were any issues. Would use Jennifer again if I need another service.”

About: I’ve been a Dog lover most of my life. I joined Rover to help the healing of losing My 10 year old Rotti, who was in my life from 7 weeks of age. I brought him up by myself…. In the best manner possible, training, Raw fed, minimal chemical exposure. and I have no regrets. I’ve boarded dogs of family and friends while my dog was in my life and it’s been some comfort since he’s gone I work from home full time - so dogs under my care will be walked at least 2x a day & Will be free to use my fenced in back yard throughout the day. I do have to be on the phone throughout the day so i cannot sit for a dog that barks all day for no reason. When caring for dogs in my home, they have free access unless they are not potty trained. They sleep in my room on a dog bed at night. They get play time in my yard during my lunch break.

“Alexandra was excellent and Daisy loved her!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and currently care for our two Nova Scotia Duck Tollers, Stella and Mobi. Since my parents often travel to Portugal for months at a time, I take full responsibility for feeding, walking, and caring for them day to day. I work from home most of the week (in-office only on Wednesdays), which means I’m able to provide frequent attention, outdoor time, and love throughout the day. I treat every dog like family and would care for yours the same way :) I work from home most days (except Wednesdays), so I have a flexible schedule for daily dog walks. I typically take my own dogs out multiple times a day and love being outside. I'm happy to schedule walks in the morning, afternoon, or early evening based on your pup's needs. I treat every dog like my own, with patience, love, and close attention. I always walk dogs on-leash and prioritize each dog's comfort and safety. I’ll follow any care instructions you provide and keep you updated after each walk for peace of mind.

“Bonnie Jo took great care of our boys! She worked with our crazy schedule and made sure both dogs got plenty of love and attention as well as time outside. I highly recommend her!”
