Dog Vacation

RELOCATED FROM TOMS RIVER TO BARNEGAT. Let your dog have a vacation while you are away! My home is their home! Pictures sent daily and open communication at all times. I have crate if needed, dog beds, my bed and couch too! I have fenced in yard. All you need to bring is the dog, their food and anything they are attached to so they think of you while they are having fun. For dog walking, it's a 30 minute walk. For drop in, 30 minutes is spent with them to do whatever is necessary.... feeding, playing, petting, and of course potty breaks. We have lived with dogs and dog sat all types. We have references if wanted. Being a teacher gives flexibility and summers off. We look forward to helping you by sharing our love for dogs !!

Kim you are the BEST! We felt so comfortable and safe leaving Toby in your care. We loved all the pictures and updates from the weekend. Made getting away for the weekend so much more enjoyable! Thank you

Kim was wonderful with our Scouty! She sent lotsnof pictures, was able to tend to his medical needs, and kept him calm and happy while we were away. It was hard to leave him, as we know he gets anxious when we're away, but we had no worries once he was there. Wonderful experience! Thanks, Kim!

I left my dog Shadow with Kim for 10 days. It was the first time in 13 years we have been apart. Kim, was sent from heaven. She showed my dog so much love i can't begin to thank her. Everyday I got a photo of Shadow in such a relaxed state. She updated me each day on how he was doing by sending me text messages. I would strongly recommend Kim if you had to leave your pet with someone. She is truly on of a kind in my book. Thank you Kim and I will never forget the love you showed towards my Shadow. You are truly one of a kind in my book.

Safety, trust & environment

I had a dog that has been around all types of dogs almost 13 years. Unfortunately he passed away March 2023. I have a fenced in yard to play when I’m home. I have a crate as an option if that’s what they are accustomed to. I try to keep whatever their usual schedule and rules are to make them feel at home.

A typical day

I love to stimulate your dog with games, playing with other dogs, love and attention. We can go on walks in the neighborhood to find new smells. I have gone to parks nearby or in the bay.

Let me know if you have any special needs or anything that needs to be accounted for. I prefer meet and greets when possible to make sure the dogs get along and have the dog feel comfortable when they are dropped off for the first time.
