“Sterlin is great! Quick to respond, easy to talk to, accepted my last minute request. She was great with Merlin, kept me posted, send me lots of pics and I could see my dog loved and was having a fun time. I gave me a lot on piece of mind! I’m absolutely gonna book with her next time! Thank you Sterlin!”


“Maria was a great sitter! She took very good care of our senior cat and sent great pictures each time. We could tell Lilly was well taken care when we got home and we would definitely rebook Maria for our next vacation!”


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.

“Alec was a lifesaver who responded instantly and came on short notice to help us out with our dog. He came for a quick meet and greet and was punctual and great for the drop in visits we needed. Will def recommend and book again. Thanks”


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.

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!

About: I’ve had both small and big dogs all my life! Animals have always been around me or with me growing up so I am a natural at caring for pets. I have taken care of friends and families pets when there away or needed a hand! I absolutely love animals of all breeds, ages, and size! I am currently back down the shore for the summer! I live down in Margate until August. I am normally able to sit whenever but if not I am very communicative! I can bathe, feed, work on training, walk, play, and give your dog love while your away.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old, and it’s something that’s always come naturally to me. From playful puppies full of energy to senior dogs who need a bit more patience and care, I’ve had experience with all ages and personalities. Growing up, I regularly helped neighbors by walking their dogs or stopping by for drop-in visits while they were away. I also have a dog of my own who’s now 10 years old, so I truly understand what it means to provide consistent, loving care at every stage of life. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available for Drop-In visits and dog-walking on Monday-Thursday: 8am-3pm and on Saturday: 8am-12pm. When it comes to dog walking and drop-in visits, safety and trust are my top priorities. I always take the time to get to know each dog’s personality, routine, and any special needs before our first visit. For walks, I use secure leashes and harnesses. I will never let dogs off-leash unless it's in a fully enclosed area with your permission. During drop-in visits, I make sure your pet gets the attention and care they’re used to—from playtime to potty breaks to just keeping them company.

I always open my home up to friends dogs and have happily dog sit for many dogs in the past. I got my first dog when I was 9 years old and I have been a doggie mama ever since!

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.

Ella H.
“Ella is extremely trustworthy and I feel comfortable having her in my home. She is very patient (which is necessary for my elderly dog, and not a trait that I’ve found in many animal caregivers) and my dogs love her for it. She is honest, kind, and great to work with. Don’t know what I would do without her!”


Alexandra K.
“Alexandra is truly amazing with dogs! She always comes over to my house and the dogs instantly run to her and crawl into her lap. She plays with them, gives them so much love, and you can tell she genuinely cares. It’s so comforting knowing my pups are in such good hands. She’s a natural! 🐶💕”

Dean D.

“Such a nice young man! He did an excellent job taking care of my Lulu, and I plan on using him again soon.”


Joanna P.
“I had Joanna watch my slightly aggressive 3year old 100lb black German Shepherd while I was in labor and stayed at the hospital for a week. She was great and he loved her. She fed him, walked him, gave him his allergy pill, and snuggled him. He laid right by her and usually he lays in front of the front door waiting for me and my husband to come home. Will definitely use her again. My dog doesn’t like many people.”


Isabella C.

“Isabella was great with our dog Iris! Iris can be shy sometimes but Iris had no issues and got along right away with Isabella. She sent us great updates on Iris as well. We’ll be sure to use Isabella again when we need to!”


Paige G.
“Paige is great with dogs. She cares for them as if they are her own. She is good with a schedule and able to take them out frequently. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a great dogsitter!”


Olga G.
“Olga will be your first and last dog sitter because you won't ever want to go to a different one. She is extremely responsible, trustworthy, and the best friend your dog will ever have. Her care for dogs is just simply unreal, she treats them like royalty and makes them feel their best. You'll never have to worry if your dog ate or drank water because if they didn't on their own, she will spoon-feed them and hug them and show them all the love in the world. As much as she cares and loves dogs, I've never seen anyone like that anywhere. You won't just be happy with her care but you'll be addicted to it.”
