“Cara is very caring and an excellent communicator. She has a neat, clean home & a very friendly small dog who readily accepted our 24lb cockapoo. When we returned to her home after the Meet & Greet, our pooch was happily whining & immediately laid on the floor & stretched wagging his tail. He was thoroughly happy when we retrieved him several days later, Cara even cleaned his ears when she saw he had ear discomfort, Highly recommend her.”
“I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Corrine. I was going to be away for 3 weeks and wanted my Golden to be in a happy, loving home for the time I was gone, and that’s exactly the environment Corrine and her family provided. I received pictures and updates every day of my Marlee having a wonderful time running and playing with other nice dogs. I was able to relax and fully enjoy my vacation because I had the peace of mind that she was well taken care of, loved, and happy, while I was away. Any time I travel in the future, this is where I want Marlee to stay ebecause I know she’ll be safe and happy at her “home away from home.””
“What an amazing family! Our 1 year old doggie spent 10 days with Ashley while we were on vacation !Piper was so well cared for….. just like ishe was their own doggie! We just picked her up and she was so happy! We highly recommend Ashley to care for your doggie!”
About: I have cared for puppies, as well as adult dogs and aging dogs. I love them all and they all sense it when I meet them. I am retired, so I have a lot of time and a very flexible schedule. Also, I am up very early in the morning, and like getting an early start. I have a partially fenced yard, so would be more comfortable with your dog n a leash or inside the house if at my home.
“Thomas was a wonderful sitter and treated Zoey like she was her owner. We felt very comfortable leaving her there over the weekend. So sad he can’t watch her for our next trip.”
“Danielle was amazing! We went away for a short weekend and Danielle cared for both of our dogs in her home. They had an amazing time and Danielle was very communicative throughout the process. I would 100% recommend Danielle and will look to use her services again in the future.”
“Judy was fantastic with our Zoey girl! My kids loved getting regular pictures to see what their pup was up to. It was clear that Zoey was in the best hands and given lots of love, attention and cuddles. We would definitely book with Judy again and highly recommend her for anyone in need of care for their pet. Thanks so much Judy!! You and your family are awesome!!”
“Alba and her husband are beautiful couple I leave for my first time with Alba and my two girls one shih tzu and shih poo are very happy with them the first day was like they know them for ever i we was very happy too. Alba going to be my favorite sitter for life definitely you can trust them and they love my babies too. Recommend a plus”
“We are so happy to have found Kristen. She took the best care of our dog Daisy when we had to leave town for a few days. She kept us informed on how Daisy was doing and sent pictures. Daisy absolutely loved Kristen. She settled right in at her house and was taken very good care of. We will definitely use Kristen again in the future and would recommend her to everyone we know.”
“Christine and family are the best! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Our dog stayed with them for a week and from the many texts and videos that Christine sent, we could tell that he was happy, loved and well taken care of! Highly recommend and would definitely use them again!”
“Nicolena was great! I highly recommend here! My dog has bad separation anxiety and she was amazing with Blaze! Kept me updated throughout his stay! She is very good with dogs and would recommend her and would absolutely leave Blaze with her again!”
“Gwen's house is Deacon's new home away from home. The whole family is so sweet. Gwen made sure Deacon had his medication every day and sent updates at the perfect times. I cannot say enough great things about her!”
“Avigail was great with our dogs and they loved staying with her! She sent us pics throughout the day and kept us posted about everything. They came back home so tired from all the playing 😂 Definitely recommend her :)”
About: I ensure pets feel safe, comfortable and happy with personalized routines, play time and plenty of love while you’re away. 15+ years of experience of pet sitting/pet owner. I have assisted in whelping puppies and care for my own dog with multiple health issues. I work a typical 8:30-4:30 job in the Ocean and Monmouth county area. But I am flexible with work from home, or traveling for drop in visits. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for running, frolicking and playing. I understand the importance of maintaining their routines and schedules all while providing endless love! I am comfortable with administering medication if necessary.
“We had a wonderful initial meet and greet with Carol. Our dog doesn't take to everyone but immediately took to Carol. We dropped our dog off feeling very good about Carol. While we were away Carol sent pictures of our dog relaxing on the couch looking very happy and healthy. When we returned our dog was obviously happy to see us. Carol said the two of them had a nice time together. I would definitely recommend Carol and we will use her again in the future when needed.”
“Kai LOVES being with Crystal and her kids! They give him a lot of love and attention. He has stayed with them a few times and Crystal will always be my first choice whenever I need a sitter for Kai.”
“This was our first time using Matt for an overnight for our dog Gino. Gino had the absolute best time! Not only did Matt send us updates and pics which made us feel so comfortable and happy knowing he was having fun, Gino loved Matt’s dogs Jax and Henry. (And so do we!) We are so lucky to have found Matt! Thank you for taking such good care of Gino! See you next week!”

This woman is so awesome with dogs. She’s like a dog whisperer. We have two Boston terriers, and sometimes they can be anxious. This was not the case this day. Cara attended to their names in a professional and caring manner and was a pleasure to interact with. She kept excellent care of our dogs in her home with her husband and small dog peanut. Great experience.!!!!!!
