Christina was excellent! She is extremely sweet and our fur babies loved having her care for them. She pays close addition to detail and was able to medicate our little boy with no issues. She comes highly recommended!

About: My very first job was at a dog groomers as a bather. I also worked at Petco and PetSmart. I have always had a love for animals. I am planning to pursing a veterinary assistant certification later this year and overall feel connected to animals. I have worked with puppies and seniors, as well as have experience giving medication/medicine when needed. I am currently in between jobs therefore I have free time during the day and night to provide attentive care for your pets. With my experience I am ready to offer high quality professional supervision. I treat every pet as if it were my own, ensuring a clean, secure and loving environment. I will follow your specific care instructions and prioritize their safety, trust and well being at all times.

This was our first time working with Ashley and it was easy and stress free! She came for a meet and greet and a followup before our first visit which was helpful for me to show everything. I received a ton of pictures and I could tell our large, rambunctious pups were happy!! We will definitely work with Ashley again!

I made this booking last minute and Melissa was nothing but helpful on taking care of my dog as if it was her own. We coordinated a meet and greet which made it easier for my dog to warm up to her and help her understand his needs and daily routine. I will be using her again.

Matt was an excellent dog walker. I received pictures from his walk and my dog sat at the door waiting for him. When Matt got here the dog wiggled all over so excited to see him. I would highly recommend him, very personable, very professional and very kind to my dog.

About: I have been taking care dogs for many years and love the joy it brings my family, especially my son. We do not have our own dog so we have all the love and attention to give to other pups. My son is 7 and adores all dogs and loves running in the yard to give the pups some exercise. I can give your dog lots of exercise and multiple potty breaks throughout the day. I live in a great family friendly neighborhood with great streets for long walks. I have a fenced in yard great for running around and playing with toys. I work as a full time teacher in Toms River and live 2 miles from my school. When caring for a dog, I come home every day during my lunch period to give a potty break and then I am home every day by 2pm. I have a fenced in backyard for plenty of exercise. A great big neighborhood for long walks. I also have a playroom and a spare room where the pup will stay in their crate or on a dog bed

About: I've been caring for pets for over 15 years. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, fish, birds, etc. and treat every pet like family. I have a rescue dog of my own who is quite anxious, so I understand how important it is to find someone who is understanding and who you can trust. Whether it's walks, playtime, or just some extra love while you're away, I'm here to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I start and end each day caring for my own dog, so scheduling walks, feedings, and playtime for other pets easily fits around my existing responsibilities. I have a flexible work from home schedule. I care for pets in their homes by following their usual routines as closely as possible-feeding, walking, and giving attention based on their needs and preferences. I make sure they feel comfortable and safe by keeping their environment calm and familiar. I don't offer pet care in my own home, so all services are provided in the pet's home where they're most at ease

Katie is absolutely wonderful! She took amazing care of my kitties and kept me updated with lots of photos—not only of them but also of other areas of my home that she thoughtfully looked after. I felt completely at ease while I was away. I’ll definitely be using Katie again for future trips. Thank you so much, Katie!

About: Not only do I have my own dog I also am a dog foster. I fostered 12 dogs within 2 years. I also have volunteered for 3 years at a rescue. When my neighbor broke her hip I volunteered my time to walk her dog three times a day. I want to do this to help people in my community and am always there for the helping hand. I do have a dog and sometimes foster dogs so I am available morning and nights. I am flexible and will work with dog owners. I have done dog sitting for neighbors and fosters at my rescue on some occasions. I will be willing to do that as well. It is done at their home.

Nicoletta is truly amazing and trusting when it came to watching my pup for a week long! My pup is very young and could be a bit hard to handle as he is very big but there was no problem whatsoever and he was very happy with nicoletta as a caretaker! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a sitter as Nicoletta is great and loving with dogs. I received updates and reviews of how the visits went and I could not be happier with how great everything went. I cannot thank her enough for being there and so kind to my Jay!

Christina is absolutely wonderful, highly recommend! She came to meet us and our crew pre-visit to acclimate and walk through their care, which we greatly appreciated to ensure comfort and alignment for all. Extremely thorough, attentive, and she gave us incredible updates from each visit (for all 4 of our pets - 3 kitties and 1 exuberant doggo). Our fur babies immediately took to her; we were in amazement. We’re so appreciative of Christina and the priceless peace of mine she affords us when we are away. She’s our go-to gal!

Another great job by Katey! She is extremely reliable, very attentive and super kind to my 19-year old cat, Clarabelle. Katey always sends me photos at check-in and check-out, so I can see how my cat is doing while I’m away. She also keeps me updated on Clara ‘s overall condition and whether she’s eaten, etc. I really appreciate the great support from Katey!!
