“Maria is fabulous. She took care of my dogs like they were her own. She kept in contact and sent pics. She really made my vacation so much less stressful bc I normally worry about them whenever I go away. I recommend her 10/10!”

About: I have watched over my neighbors, friends, and my own dogs since I was in middle school. I have taken care of friendly, aggressive, energetic, low-energy, social, and anxiety-prone dogs in the past, and I believe that I can take care of your dog as well as I take care of my own. I have also taken care of puppies, not house-trained dogs, and older dogs that need to be taken out more frequently. I am a recent graduate from Fairfield University and am available to care for your pets any day of the week, but would prefer Monday-Friday. I have had experience with aggressive as well as friendly dogs, so I know how to handle both in whatever situation. I have provided in-home service and have walked, washed, and cared for dogs, so I am well prepared for your dog!

“Mae was amazing. It was our first time hiring a pet-sitter, and we will definitely use Mae again if we need it. Getting home, our animals weren't stressed out at all, though they usually are after we take a trip. Mae sent daily photos and even left some wonderful printed photos for us when we returned. Our pup had some tummy trouble while we were gone, and she handled that as well. Overall great experience, so thankful for a stress-free trip!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. I’ve had both cats and dogs, I’ve volunteered at farms assisting with animal care. Can’t wait to meet your fur baby :) I currently work full time. I have a hybrid schedule and can be available Friday-Monday at all times. Tuesday-Thursday I can be available in the mornings and after 5pm. I am an organized and prompt person. I will adhere to your pets schedule along with your schedule. I will ensure the pets have their food, walks on time and that their living quarters are clean.

About: Hard working single mom. I have a very flexible schedule. I work full time as an esthetician at a spa in mays landing. I have a French bull dog boston terrier mix dog daughter name jinx. I was able to have her trained doing a few tricks within a 2 day span. I don't have many limitations when it comes to pet care (poop doesn't scare me) I own my own vehicle so transportation is no problem. My days off are Wednesday and Thursday. My full time job allows me to be flexible with my hours. I have open availability for most days of the week. I have all the patience in the world. I've been told I have a calming aura. I have never had any bad run ins with anyone's pets. Im not opposed to helping with house sitting or house cleaning along with pet care.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of varying breeds and personalities since I was 10. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me for years to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets like my own. I also raised and lived with my two beloved Jack Russell Terriers aboard a sailboat full-time, so I’m no stranger to keeping pets calm, happy, and safe in all kinds of environments. I’m experienced with puppies, seniors, and anxious dogs, and I bring a calm, confident energy that animals trust right away. I’m available 24/7 and absolutely love spending time with animals, so pet care fits seamlessly into my daily life. Whether it’s an early morning walk, a midday check-in, or overnight care, I’m flexible and ready. Your pets will get all the attention, exercise, and love they need—anytime you need it! I only provide care in your pet’s familiar home environment, where they feel safe and comfortable. I respect your space, follow your routines closely, and make sure your pets feel loved and stress-free while you’re away. I’m experienced, trustworthy, and happy to accommodate any special instructions—from medications to crate time or snuggles on the couch.

About: I’ve always had love for animals and helping people out! I’m currently going to college to become a vet-tech or veterinary rehabilitation therapist. I always had a pet growing up, so I have experience with animals! I currently don’t have a full time job so I’m free to do anything at the moment. I leave for college at the end of August, so I’m doing something I enjoy and something to earn spending money quickly. I have a friendly dog and a yard for your animals. I also have plenty of dog toys/ extras leashes if the dogs wanted to go out and play.

About: They say you should surround yourself with good people. I think you should surround yourself with good animals. I have been alive for 34 years and have never lived without a pet, usually multiple. I started dog walking and sitting for friends and neighbors when I was a teenager. I’ve had experience with dogs of all shapes, sizes and temperaments; from yorkies to mastiffs, from puppies to seniors, from training pads to diapers, from calm/shy to hyper/anxious. Everyone I have dog walked or pet sat for have been a repeat client - one dog never even left! (A story that’s too long for here, but I would love to share. That’s dog changed my life and his owners became family🥰) If you are looking for someone to spoil your dog with love and treat them like family when they can’t be with you, you found the right person! I can’t wait to meet you and my new best friend. ☺️ As a teacher, my summer is fully open! I am flexible and available anytime during the day, even if you have to book last minute. Starting September 2nd, my availability will be after 3:30 pm on weekdays (4:40 on Tuesdays) and anytime during weekends. I am also available for overnight, as long as your pet is okay to be alone during my work hours. I live in a one floor townhouse with a fenced in back yard, just a couple block from the beach. I prefer to take care of pets in their own home, as I have a crazy two year old cat. However, arrangements can be made depending on the duration of stay and the amount of time booked in advance.

“Nicola did a great job with our 2 dogs. She cared for them according to our instructions and reached out when needed. Would definitely book her again.”

About: I’m a dedicated animal lover who treats every dog like my own. Whether it’s a walk around the block or an overnight stay, I bring patience, reliability, and lots of love to every visit. I take time to understand each pup’s personality and needs—whether they’re playful, shy, or need a little extra TLC. You can count on me for dependable care, timely updates, and plenty of tail wags while you're away! After years of loving and caring for animals of all kinds I truly love being surrounded by the unconditional love animals have to give and wish to reciprocate the same kindness to them! I'm pretty flexible as far as my daily and weekly routine go. I work per diem with my other part time jobs so I don't have a "set" schedule. My experience working with rescue dogs has taught me how to build trust with animals of all backgrounds—especially those who are shy, anxious, or need a little extra patience. I’m comfortable reading dog body language, handling different temperaments, and making sure each pup feels safe and cared for. Whether your dog is outgoing or more reserved, I’ll meet them where they are and earn their trust with calm, consistent care!

“It was great know our pets were well taking care of, while we vacationed. Carolyn was great and sent photos every day.”

“Andrew did everything he was asked and more. Pups loved him. He came to my house 3x to take care of dogs and even adjusted his schedule when I had to change it due to surgery. I hope he will come back!”

About: I am a retired person who happens to love animals! I have too many years of experience with animals to list. I’ve had dogs since I was a child and have also loved many cats in my lifetime. Your cherished pet will get lots of love and attention! I am retired and able to care for your pet for a day or on a consistent schedule. If in my home, I have my own fur baby that loves other dogs! She’s also a wonderful companion to our 17 grandchildren! I am available to watch your dog for your vacations or work travel. I am also available for daily walks and loving attention during the days. For special cases, I would consider overnights at your home.

“She was great! Will definitely book her again the next time we need a sitter!”

Amanda S.

“Shannon has provided extra care for our two dogs. She is caring and goes above and beyond to ensure the needs of our dogs, especially our German Shepherd who suffers from epilepsy and requires not only medicine but extra love and attention. We will definitely use Shannon again for all our future house sitting needs. I can't recommend her enough, she is absolutely the best!”

Jim J.

“Ella was absolutely amazing with our puppy, Brody:). She was super accommodating and cared for him like he was her puppy...she even purchased him toys! Ella is very responsible and loves animals dearly. We will be using Ella again for sure:). You will be so happy if you ever decide to leave your furry family members with Ella. Thank you so much:).”

About: I’ve taken care of my friends dogs and cats for years. I’m reliable and you can always count on me to care for your pets in a loving manner. I am a 3rd grade teacher just looking for a summer job to keep me occupied and meeting cute animals who I know I will love :) I currently take care of 3 cats who are 5years old. They are well taken care of, friendly, and clean. I keep up on our cat chores so they’re never in gross environments. I keep a loving home for my cats and it’s basically me living in their world.

“Paige was amazing! Took great care of our pups and kept us updated the whole time.”

“I was really happy with Teddy’s care when she came and house sat with my shy dog Hazel! She was extremely conscientious of doggo’s needs and tried to make her as comfortable as possible, which I appreciate as Hazel can be very shy around new people. She arrived at my house on time and stayed until I was back as we agreed upon. Will definitely be booking again 😊”
