Dog Sitting Matawan

About: I’m a past doggie daycare worker and have lots of experience taking care of small, medium, and large sized dogs. I love them as if they’re my own children - I have experience with senior care (giving medication, paying attention to their eating habits, doing whatever I can to make their experience the most comfortable). If you have any questions feel free to reach out! I'm only working part-time so I have lots of time to spend with your doggies! I'm available most days, just reach out and we can chat on what works best for you. :) When I go to your home, I can guarantee I will treat your dog with the utmost respect, and spend time and care for your pet as if they were my own.

About: I have had dogs my whole life, some being high energy who play all day and some low energy who love to just cuddle and relax. Ive had 4 different breeds, from Pitbulls, Labradors, Huskies, and a German Shepherd. I know what it takes to make a dog feel at home and loved even if their owner isn't home. I love dogs more than most of the human in the world and trust me when I say your dog will miss me when I leave. I currently am searching for a job post college and waiting to enter a Police Academy in the coming winter. So I am available almost everyday and almost all day. I do have a dog at home that I take care of so if She needs to be walked I will do her separately. I have a energetic Husky at home so I know all about the high energy dogs, when I lived with my parents I had 2 couch potatoes so I know the best of both worlds. I love walking and running myself so having a furry friend with me just makes it even better.

“Kimberly was great! We had no worries about our cats when she was with them. She was very responsive before and after her visits and took some great pics!”

About: I've never been a professional pet sitter, but I've proudly been the go-to sitter for family and friends for as long as I can remember. From playful pups to senior sweethearts. I've always loved caring for animals of all kinds. And yes, I've even pet-sat hermit crabs. In fact, one cat-sitting job turned into a 12-year relationship with my late cat Kitty (I know..very creative). I treat every pet as my own and understand how important it is to trust the person caring for them. My goal is simply happy pets and happy owners. My current priorities are my education and my son. Outside of those responsibilities, I have a flexible schedule and can provide dependable, loving care for your pets. My goal is to step in and make them feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. I'll stick to their routine, give them plenty of attention, play, and affection, making sure they feel like they're spending time with a friend instead of a stranger. I'll always keep you updated with photos and check-ins to give you peace of mind.

“Bridget is amazing with my Boston Terrior Rocky!!! She is always flexible with her time and is available for me when I need her to drop in to see him. I love all the pictures she sends me of Rocky during visits and Rocky looks so happy! I feel so comfortable with Bridget and feel that Rocky is in the best hands! Thank you Bridget!!! ❤️”

“We are so happy to have found Stephanie to help look after our lil guy. She was very communicative, caring and patient. I feel we can truly rely on her for future pet care and definitely plan to book again.”

“Trixie is opening right up to Leigh! She's normally very reserved around new people. It's so great that she's so chatty so quickly—it's a very positive sign. :)”

“Alyssa was great with our dog. Our dog has high anxiety and requires meds each day. Alyssa took care of her meds and gave us plenty of pics and updates.”

About: I have a plethora of experience in the pet care industry. From dog sitting since I was a teenager to becoming an animal care manager for an animal shelter, I have taken care of animals and pets in many different settings. I will take care of your pets as if they are my own! I am a certified animal control officer who has dealt with difficult situations and handled difficult animals with care. Rest assured I will take care of your pets with the utmost responsibility while making your animals feel comfortable and loved. I work nights so I can take care of animals throughout the morning and afternoon and even stop by later at night. My schedule is very flexible so I can provide full time pet care with enough notice! I will make sure to take care of your pets exactly as you would. I have a medicated senior dog myself who is spoiled beyond belief but with my experience in a shelter environment I have had to adapt to my pet care tactics on a case by case basis. I’m someone who will follow your directions to a T as you know your pets the best.

About: I grew up in a family of animal lovers, especially dogs, and from an early age I learned how to care for them with attention, patience, and affection. Being around animals has always been a natural and important part of my life. I am someone homeowners can trust to respect their space, follow instructions carefully, and communicate clearly when needed. I will treat your home and your pet (or feathered friend!) with the same attention, respect, and affection I would give my own. I currently work from home part time as an online teacher and have a pretty flexible schedule so that allows me to be very present, keep pets company, take them for walks and make sure they get all the TLC they need. Caring for animals and creating a peaceful, well-kept home genuinely fulfills me. Pets make any place feel like home, and spending time with them — whether walking, playing, cuddling, or simply keeping them company — is something that brings me a lot of joy. My lifestyle is naturally calm and home-oriented, so I truly enjoy quiet routines and spending time at home. As a self-employed English teacher working remotely, I have the flexibility to give pets plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. I’m a responsible, trustworthy, and clean person who takes looking after someone else’s home seriously. I’m organized, respectful and a non-smoker. My goal is always to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable, and that you return to a happy and welcoming home. Clear communication is very important to me, and I’m happy to send updates and photos as often as you prefer, so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away.

“Michael did a great job taking care of my three dogs. They were fed and well cared for.”

About: I have been surrounded by dogs my entire life. I have had 3 family dogs while I was growing up and now have a dog of my own as an adult. They are truly my favorite animal and I have experience with dogs of all sizes. Most of my dogs have been rescues and I am excited to help take care on of your pups! I currently work nights 4 days a week. I am free most mornings and afternoons and have more availability on Mondays and Tuesdays. My schedule is flexible. I live in an apartment so I take my dog on long walks multiple times a day and when we can we go to the park. I am willing to take your dog on long walks, play with them, and to the dog park if okay with the owner.

About: I have over 12 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes. I’m reliable, gentle, and treat every pet like part of my family. I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding, playtime, and giving meds if needed. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! I am happy to work with you on your schedule to find the best times that work for us. I treat every pet like my own… which means spoiled, loved, and slightly over-photographed. I currently work part time a couple of nights a week, so I have alot of time available. Let me know whatever works for you. I will treat your furbaby as I would my own. I have alot of experience with dogs, cats, as well as rabbits. Any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

About: I provide more than just pet care—I focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment tailored to each pet’s unique needs. I have hands-on experience with both energetic puppies who need extra playtime and training, as well as senior pets who benefit from gentle handling, medication management, and a slower pace. I pay close attention to detail, communicate frequently with pet parents, and treat every dog as if they were my own. I work full time, but I work from home. I am available on most days and can be there for lunch routines. I am available during my lunch breaks for dog walks. I have one mini bernedoodle, who is the most friendly dog in the world. I can take care of dogs in my house, and am available for walks on my lunch.

“everything went exceptionally well with Kevin taking care of Darla and River. Kevin was punctual, followed instructions that were left and interacted with the dogs extremely well. I give him 5 STARS and will use him when his services are required in the future.”

About: I'm a big dog owner for 20 + years. Had labs, pit bull mixes, rottweiler and a golden retriever, etc. Love dogs...they are so sweet and loving. Love to walk them and play with them. UPDATE- I now have a dog of my own. A lab/husky mix named Bo. He is about 3 and LOVES to play. He is dog friendly and LOVES people. He is 55 lbs. I work FT at home in Laurence Harbor (part of Old Bridge). I can board your dog(s) for you at my home. I have plenty of dog toys. I have a good sized fenced in yard with a 6ft vinyl fence. I love to walk dogs, play ball, cuddle and spoil all the dogs I watch. If you are looking for dog walking or dog sitting at your home, I can mostly only do that evenings or weekends. I can board your dog at my home 7 days a week. Drop in visits/dog walking or dog sitting at your home is evenings and weekends. I have a fenced in yard and live in a dog friendly neighborhood. Love to take dogs for walks and play fetch in the house and my yard.

About: I have had pets my whole life, especially dogs. I have a dog currently whom would love to also play with your dog if possible when I walk or care for them overnight! My dog is spoiled as some people like to say :) I would love to watch or walk your dog when there are certain events you need to attend and just want to give your dog some loving. I have a fenced in yard which is also amazing for the dogs to run in. You would be able to trust your dog when staying/walking with me. I can even provide updates. I promise you won't be disappointed when choosing me! Just another note, I Am available most weekends to do walks as well! I’m currently working from home, so I am available to do walks, drop in visits, etc. as my schedule permits and on most weekends am around for overnight stay. I have a fenced yard and my dog Jada to keep yours company. Lots of room for them to run back an forth. I can also crate your dog if needed. Some dogs feel more safe with their crates.

“Thanks so much to Jill for caring for our two fur babies while we were out of town. All of the updates and pictures she shared helped us to feel very comfortable leaving our kitties and home in her care.”
