I’m so grateful for Caitlen! She’s a wonderful pet sitter and took excellent care of Stella. She kept me updated with pictures and information about Stella’s day. I was nervous about going away for a week, but as soon as I met Caitlen I knew Stella would be well taken care of. I came home to a spotless house, a bonus! My husband and I can’t wait to book Caitlen again! Thank you, Caitlen!

Mae is the best!!! I can’t say enough good things. She took such good care of our dog, 2 cats, and 2 turtles. She even watered our plants and took in our mail. She sent daily updates and we felt so secure on our trip knowing Mae was looking after all our pets. We recommend her so highly and hope she will house/pet sit for us again in the future!!

Shannon was excellent. She came to my house and cared for Marlee while we were away for 4 days. She gave antibiotics that were needed. She was flexible when I had some problems with my return flight. Interactions were prompt. I would definitely recommend her for your house sitting needs without reservations.

About: I believe animals should receive love, attention, and care the same as humans do. I’ve been surrounded by animals almost my entire life and i’ve learned to care for an animals in many ways. From nail clippings, vet visits, nap sessions and quality time, and even trying a new snack to cure their craving. I am a first responder so dealing with animals is something I handle daily! Every encounter is different but I intend on getting the animal home safe to their family and owner! Animals are family so their deserve the best care at all times! I am a police officer and I work 4 days (2 days 6am-6pm/ 2 nights 6pm-6am), then i’m off for 4 days. My schedule rotates but I have so much time on my hands. I don’t find it any better to spend my down time with animals which I enjoy, and helping out someone who needs it! I have a 4 year old Maltese and a 10 year old cat. I allow my animals to walk around freely because they’re both potty trained, and get along very well. I allow my dog to eat at certain times due to him not eating too much and gaining a lot since he’s a smaller dog. I allow my cat to eat whenever he likes. I take my dog out 3-4 times out a day, sometimes more whenever I see him standing but the door. I give my dog 1 treat per day and i bathe him every 2 weeks. My dog gets groomed every month depending on the season and if I want his fur to grow out. What I offer is dog walks, stop ins, dog sitting over night or during the day with whatever aligns with my schedule.

About: Been around animals all my life, they care and love i have and the joy it brings is out of this world. Also as i help care for my grandmom and she has had pets growing up. I know it will bring her joy and will take up her time as she sits in the house, if we dont go out for the day. As i work on the week days, i am availble (if nothing pops up) on the weekends, like a friday night untill sunday night if that will work for anybody. And also i do work in the school system so having weeks off for or a couple days off can change my schedule but for now, weekends are best. If pets need care i am here to learn and help, i do offer a yard (sadly is not fenced) but if on a leash your pet will be taken very care of and we be shown love and care.

About: I have never not had a dog as far back as I can remember. I love being around them. From puppies to senior dogs also. As of Dec. 27th I will be working full time, however I can still do walks, drop ins and overnight stays. I can still do morning walks and evening walks. Can walk dogs from a small walk to up to several miles if needed, on a hike and just play ball if needed. I currently do not have a yard to be able to have a dog at my home. Hope to change that in the future as needed

About: Hi! My name is Emery and I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I grew up in a home full of animals and currently have three cats and a puppy of my own, so I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, comfortable, and cared for when you’re away. Over the years I’ve cared for cats, dogs, fish, reptiles, hamsters, mice, and even more unique pets like chameleons and lizards - so I’m very comfortable with a wide variety of animals and care routines. In addition to pet care, I work with families as a nanny and am currently in graduate school for adoption social work. Because of this, I’m very comfortable being in clients’ homes and understand the level of trust that comes with caring for something important to you. I pride myself on being reliable, responsible, and communicative. My favorite type of booking is house sitting because it allows pets to stay in their normal environment where they feel most relaxed. I also offer drop-in visits and dog walks whenever my schedule allows. When I care for your pets, I treat them exactly how I treat my own, with patience, attention, and lots of love. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, medication, or just someone calm and reliable to keep them company, I’m happy to help. You can expect regular updates, photos, and clear communication while you're away so you always know how your pets are doing. I’m especially happy to care for multi-pet households or animals that require more specialized care. I’d love to meet you and your pets! When I am available, I organize my day around your pets’ routines, making sure they get meals, walks, playtime, and any medication on schedule. I provide plenty of attention and companionship, and I’m flexible to follow any specific instructions you have. You’ll receive daily updates and photos so you always know your pets are happy, safe, and well cared for. I provide care in your home with a focus on safety, trust, and comfort for your pets. I follow all instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication, keeping pets in their familiar environment so they feel secure. I treat your home with respect, follow house rules, and provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pets are doing. My goal is to make your pets happy and comfortable while you’re away.

About: I have experience taking care of dogs and cats! Dogs that are more trained and have troubles with eating during given dinner hours! I have lots of experience with shy cats and anxious dogs, given my cat has been very shy towards others, and my dog is incredibly anxious! While I do have more experience with cats, I am as much of a dog lover as I am a cat lover! Currently also trying to look for a part time job, but my schedule is all around free besides on super early mornings, weekdays are fair game for me as of right now! Same with some weekends if given prior notices! I will follow any given guidelines and rules to anyone I will be having my services given to! I am a very clean person, especially with animals! I will follow any given diets or routines with what ever critter you may have in store for me!

About: Proud Volunteer at Beacon Animal Rescue, and Mew to You. I have experience giving medicine to animals. My passion is to make all animals happy! Open to any animal! I am a student at Atlantic Cape Community College. As I practice my studies, being with and helping animals is something that keeps me going in school and happy. I walk the dog very securely on the leash, while of course picking up the poop on the walk. I do enjoy ball time, tug a war or anything the dog likes. For cats I am a cat owner and am very aware of how to approach and play with them, also very comfortable with litter boxes.

About: I have a reactive German shepherd husky mix at home that I am able to handle really well! I also have experience caring for senior dogs and cats! I’m currently in Doctor of Physical Therapy school at Stockton University full time, but have off from class Tuesday, Friday and the weekends. I am happy to come over and take care of your pets. I live in an apartment complex with little yard space, but I love getting outside and would be more than happy to take your pet on long walks if they need extra exercise.

We had a fantastic experience with Suzann looking after our home and our skittish border collie. She was incredibly responsible and kept us updated with regular messages and photos. Suzann went above and beyond starting with multiple meet and greets. Our dog is a rescue that shies away from most folks. Suzann knew how to work with her and Briar warmed up to her in a very short period of time. She did other tasks we never expected like taking out the trash on collection day and spending extra time working with our dog. Briar seemed happy and relaxed when we returned, and the house was spotless. We have used Rover sitters in the past at our previous home. None of them compare to Suzann. We highly recommend Suzann and will be booking her again for our next trip.
