“Carol was great! She communicated with us constantly and Luna was very happy and taken care of just as she would at home! We enjoyed our experience with Carol so much we already booked her for our next trip!”


“Kevin was very professional, kind, and responsive. He sent me photos of my dogs everyday, and it looked like they had a lot of fun with him! I will definitely ask him for help again to care for my dogs in the future.”


“This was our trial run overnight stay for a longer stay we have coming up. Chris lives in a lovely area with a nice little fenced yard for the dogs to play and do their business. He has a cute smaller female mixed breed of his own. Our Finley over other dogs and had good playtime with her. I like that Chris only takes one doggie client at a time so that I know Finley will get the attention and care that he needs. Based on our successful overnight I am going to book Chris for our long trip. I don’t like making recommendations after only one overnight but I am confident that I will be doing just that after his next stay.”



“Erin was great with our three dogs. It was their first time staying at someone else's house and they were acting up. She was willing to bring them back to my house and watch them there. I love that she was flexible and honest. She took great care of them. I was over three hours away and was so glad that she was able to come up with plan B and execute it. She was so flexible, accommodating and friendly. She made me feel at ease. We would definitely book her again.”


“Lana has been absolutely amazing with my husky, Saphyra! She’s not only reliable but incredibly dedicated to ensuring Saphyra gets the care she deserves and she always kept me informed through pictures, videos and messages. From regular walks to thoughtful attention to her needs, Lana has been a wonderful caregiver. It's clear she genuinely loves what she does, and I can’t thank her enough for taking such great care of Saphyra. Highly recommend!!!😁🌹”


“Christina was awesome! She took care of Meeko like one of her own and I’m so appreciative of that. She kept me updated throughout his stay and sent us pictures. He will definitely be back to hangout with Bentley and Dixen!”


“Our dogs were very well while staying at Vivian and Katia’s house. They followed all the instructions related to food, walks, etc and we received plenty of pictures during the days we were gone. Katia was very kind and sweet with the dogs and they look happy and resting calmly all the time.”


“Sebastian was great! We had a last minute change with our previous care plans and he stepped in so graciously to take care of Lincoln. We got many updates and pictures and Lincoln had the best time. We would definitely recommend him to others and book him again whenever we’re in NJ!”


“Trista has been incredibly helpful and flexible, she was helpful when I had a last minute need and was very understanding and open. She makes the stays easy and my dog was very happy staying with her.”


“It’s great when you know your cats will be in great hands. They took such great care of my cats and made sure I got updates. Cats can be finicky so glad they were taken care of well, and I could enjoy my vacation.”


About: I have two German Shepherds, one Belgian Malinois, one Shepsky, and this Jack Russell mix that completes this motley crew. I am a nurse who finds solace and stress relief in spending time with and caring for animals, especially dogs. I’d love to help you out with your pups if they need walks or playtime. I have cared for medically fragile dogs in the past and will follow your, or the vets, instructions as needed. I have over one acre of land for your dogs to play if they are to board in my home. I am home most of the time in the summer. If you have any questions, just ask! I’m a school nurse now, so I’m off during the summer months and holidays. I run errands sometimes during the day, or step out to walk dogs. I’m not gone for long. My schedule will change during the school year, but I will be home late afternoons and weekends. If I’m dropping in only, I’ll play with your pup and clean up any messes they’ve made or follow your instructions. If I’m taking them for a walk, I take a few minutes to get to know them if they haven’t met me before or play to say hi. Water bowls are cleaned and refilled before I leave. Big dogs subject to bloat - I let them calm down if panting after a walk before watering/feeding. If they’re in my home, they’re treated like royalty along with my pack. Introductions are done outside so that there’s no tension. Everyone is playing and the meeting is casual. I look to you for information on their personalities and care. I have an invisible fence for my dogs. If your dog is familiar and trained, I can provide a collar. I’m also experienced and trained with the e collar if that’s how your pup was trained. It will never be used as punishment.

“Jaylene is a great care taker of our dog Stella. She provided update each day to ensure us that the dog is in good care. She is also very nice and friendly to interact as well. Once again, Thank you for taking good care of Stella. 👍”


About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to wise seniors—and have plenty of hands-on experience. Growing up, I regularly watched my neighbors’ pets, feeding, playing, and making sure they felt loved and safe. Your furry friend will be in caring, experienced hands! I work per diem at the hospital in the emergency room. I make my own hours and am very flexible. I able to do drop ins to feed or walk, or board at my house with my two fur babies. I have a big fenced in yard with 2 of my own dogs. They are very playful and love other dogs. I can crate the dogs if needed or they can snuggle on the couch or bed with us.

“Maria was great. She offered to pick them up and drop them back off, which was so helpful. My pups came home happy as can be. It was obvious she treated them as if they were her own. I definitely recommend Maria and I will be using her services again.”

“This was the first time I have used overnight pet care for my 1 1/2 year old golden, Josie. The overall experience for both Josie and myself was excellent. David was quick to respond to any questions and sent me pictures and updated several times throughout the day. I will definitely be using David again and would highly recommend him to others.”
