Dog Walkers in Ocean City, NJ

“I would highly recommend Deborah. Even though I was booking on pretty short notice, she very kindly went out of her way to fit in a meet and greet with Buddy beforehand.

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust. I’m patient, dependable, and focused on making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m experienced with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, including puppies who need extra patience and consistency as well as senior dogs who may need a gentler routine, medication reminders, or extra attention. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, keeping pets active with walks and playtime, and maintaining routines that help them feel at home. What sets me apart is the genuine attention and care I give every pet. I treat animals like family, provide regular updates and photos, and make sure each pet gets personalized care based on their needs and personality. I am currently working part and time so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pets! I am also very available on the weekends. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities when caring for pets in both my home and a client’s home. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they feel secure and comfortable while in my care. In a client’s home, I make sure pets stay on their normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest to help reduce stress. I keep the environment clean, secure, and calm, and I always double-check doors, gates, leashes, and food instructions for safety. I am also happy to provide regular updates and photos so pet owners can feel confident knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Christy was able to take care of our dog Cooper with late notice. It was our first time having someone take care of our dog while we were on a day trip. Christy communicated with us throughout the day and sent pictures. She really seems to be a caring person. She was very responsive to our dogs needs. We would absolutely callI on her again and would highly recommend her to anyone.”

About: I enjoy dogs and I enjoy walks so what better way to combine the two than becoming a Rover walker! I have most experience with small and medium dogs. I work flexible hours in my full time job currently, I am sure we can work something out that works for both of our schedules! Dogs bring so much joy to our lives! I love to walk and explore the neighborhood with a furry companion, throw a ball, and cuddle up with sweet dogs.

About: I've always had compassion for dogs and pets. Maybe they are reincarnated from our loved ones. Be gentle and loving and kindness comes in return. I'm flexible but may be available during odd times also, like midnight or early bird walks. I'm not much of a sleeper so if you need a late night walker I may be up. My dogs are pet friendly but could be crated also as that is where they are trained. It would be great to walk my dog with yours.

“Michele did a wonderful job taking care of my Boston Terrier Phoebe. She is detail oriented and maintained communication with me each day so I would know how their walks went and what they had done. I would not hesitate to have Michele again and truly appreciate her attentive care!”

About: Hola! My name is Claudia, and I’ve been a dog parent my whole life. I am an experienced sitter who you can trust to take amazing care of your pup. From pet sitting, long or short walks, boarding and of course taking care of our own pets, I’ve got experience with it all. From rescue dogs, administering medication to dogs of all ages and sizes, and caring for them as my own. Our two dogs, Kai and Meeka, were rescued as with little training, so teaching them tricks has been super fun and exciting. It’s incredible how much dogs can learn with the right proper training. I’m currently working part time and I’m available in the early afternoons to play with your pets. It allows me more flexibility and more time to care for your loved one. I live in a beautiful home with a fenced yard with our two beautiful middle sized dogs, Kai and Meeka. Their energy and playfulness will keep your dog entertained. When visiting client's homes, I take a bit of extra time before leaving to make sure everything’s secure just like I always do at home. I make sure nothing’s been left out, and the dog has what they need before their parent comes back.
