“Kaiden was great with our Benzo! We had a bit of a situation and Kaiden took our pup on short notice and was wonderful! We received photos and videos of our little guy and he looked happy and comfortable. We would rebook with Kaiden again in the future :)”
About: I’ve had a dogs my entire life. I love them all big and small. I’ve also fostered for the last 20 years. I love all dogs and have 4 of my own. I’d love to pamper your pup too! I am currently a stay at home mother and have plenty of free time to walk or help care for pets. I have mornings and afternoons free. I have 4 very spoiled rescues. We have a fenced in yard but I never leave my dogs outside alone. My dogs are not crated but I would crate a visiting pet for safety if I was not home.
“Christine was a great dog sitter for our two dogs Timon and Rafika. They got along well with her dog Piper and I could tell by the pictures they were comfortable and enjoyed their time playing, snuggling and sleeping in their normal comfortable spots. Thank you so much for taking care of our fur babies. Leslie and Rich”
“Jenn was very accommodating with our last minute request! She sent us photos while we were away which we loved! We didn't worry at all about Abbie being in good hands and would recommend Jenn to anyone needing a dog sitter!”
“It was Molly’s first time with Lorrie and it was a very positive experience. Lorrie is knowledgeable about dog behavior and very patient and caring. I highly recommend her!”

“It was so nice knowing that our puppy was in good hands while we were on vacation. Alba sent daily pics and took her on several outings. I’d highly recommend Alba and already have her booked for our next trip!”
About: We know how stressful it can be to leave a family member with someone else—that’s why we’re here to make it easy and comforting for both you & your pup. When your dog stays with us, they’ll be treated like family. My husband and I rotate working from home, so there’s always someone here to give your pet attention, love, and plenty of playtime. I’ve been caring for animals for over 15 years, and I truly can’t imagine life without them. We are huge animal lovers, and your pet’s happiness and well-being will always be our top priority. We love spending time outdoors—hiking, beach trips, and dog-friendly adventures are part of our routine. At home, we have a large fenced-in yard (1 acre), security cameras for peace of mind, and plenty of room for your dog to run, play, and relax. On nice days, we’re often outside enjoying the sunshine, and yes—dogs are welcome to splash around in the pool! Our dog Casanova swims all day long jumping off the diving board on his own. Our little Stella will hop on a pool float and take a nap. Our dogs are friendly and social, and we do our best to ensure all pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved. We let the dogs out every 2–3 hours, and we’re happy to help with basic training or any special care your pup might need. We’re here to give your dog the attention they deserve while you’re away—and to give you daily updates so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. We have a 2 year old so we are switching to small dogs only. My dogs are spoiled and part of the family. I treat them like my kids and they go outside whenever they ask or at least every few hours. Friendly pets are welcomed like part of the family. They are free to go where they want and sleep where they would like. Our pups sleep in our room and have their own pillow and blanket.
“Bill is such a fantastic sitter!! If you're looking for a detail-oriented sitter that does his utmost to make your dog feel comfortable while giving your dog the best of care, please go to him! We left our elderly english bulldog, Lechon, with him for a week. Bill took great care of him. He gave Lechon filtered water, and helped him up the stairs as Lechon struggles with climbing sometimes. Our Lechon doesn't know his limits, so Bill also made sure to limit his play so he had time to breathe and not overexert himself. Bill really kept an eye on Lechon, and we're very pleased with the level of care and consideration Bill had with our elderly bulldog. I highly recommend Bill as a sitter. My family and I will definitely be returning to him in the future for our dog sitting needs. Thank you for everything Bill! Lechon looked so happy and healthy in the picture updates, and upon our arrival. It truly feels like you cared for him as if he were one of your own.”
About: I love all animals, even reptiles! When I was a teenager I worked at a kennel for a summer job and fell in love with every breed of dog. I’ve had dogs, cats, rabbits and small critters my entire life and even backyard chickens! My current pup is a senior boxer/Shepard mix. I am comfortable giving medication and caring for senior and special needs pets. I have a full time job so am available for pet care in the evenings and on weekends. I work local so if pet sitting at my house, I can check in at lunch time. I have a fenced in backyard and crates if needed. My senior dog is chill and is great with dogs and cats if caring for you pet in my home. For short stays, pets usually do best in their own home with visits from me up to three times a day depending on their needs.
“Michelle and her family are awesome taking care of our beagle. Communication with her is fast and easy. We recommend her and would board our beagle with her again in the future!”

Meghan was fantastic with our dachshund Dante! She and her husband took such great care of our little guy while we were away for the weekend. She gave him so much love and attention, and also great toys to play with! And then took him on the Asbury Park Weiner walk, which he loved (even though it was raining)! I highly recommend Meghan and Dante will love going back to her!
Brian was so nice. We received updates and pictures regularly and can tell Kingston and Irie were getting so much love and affection while we were away! Kingston even ate his food right away, which means he felt comfortable. We will absolutely ask Brian to dog sit for us in the future. We highly recommend him!
Keith and his wife Jennifer are amazing with my greyhounds and my greys truly love them. They are a special breed and former racers, so they have some personalities. They always come back so content and happy. They are previous dog owners of large breeds, so I feel very comfortable to leave my sticks with them. Highly recommend.
Sydney was amazing with our senior dog, Maggie! As an older dog, Maggie requires multiple medications and can be very particular about the people she trusts, so finding the right sitter is incredibly important to us. Maggie absolutely adores Sydney, which speaks volumes. Sydney was patient, attentive, and took such wonderful care of her, making sure all of her medications and needs were handled perfectly. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and had complete peace of mind while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Sydney again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, dependable pet sitter!
Best experience with Annie!!! She was consistently sending updates/pics and made me feel so comfortable while I was away. Juno was socialized and soo exhausted when she came back, which was a great sign to confirm how much fun she had all weekend. Thank you again, I will 100% be booking again and highly recommend Annie to anyone looking for a high-touch dog care experience.
Katie is the best!! We hate leaving Loki, but we know when he’s with Katie he’s on a vacation of his own. She sends pictures/videos/updates constantly to give us peace of mind when we are missing our baby! This was our second time leaving Loki with Katie and definitely will not be the last. Going on vacation is way easier knowing our pup is happy and well taken care of.
Alexis was awesome with our doggie Kala. I would recommend her highly! She is very kind, VERY communicative in a way that made me feel relaxed that my dog was in good hands and having a good time. My dog and her dog enjoyed playing which is a big plus for us. Overall great experience.
We had a great experience with Lex as Mochi’s sitter! She was very caring, attentive, and kept us updated, which gave us so much peace of mind. One thing we truly appreciated is her patience and understanding, even when we were running late picking Mochi up, she was more than willing to wait and didn’t make us feel rushed at all. Mochi came home happy and well taken care of. We would definitely trust Lex again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and kind pet sitter!
Carol Ann and John happily accepted Juno in a pinch when I had a circumstance that required last-minute hosting. During my time away, they sent me photos and notes to let me know that she was having fun and that all was going well at their home. Their care for Juno and understanding of her energetic needs made me so comfortable. I am glad they had her for this weekend away!!! Thank you.
Marc exceeded my expectations. He went above and beyond. Did a meet & greet last minute,took her even though she was sick.Had no problem giving her medication. Took lots of pics and videos to ease my mind. Answered all my concerns. Washed her blanket casue it got stained. Even treated her to home made dog food. Not sure lacey is happy to be back with me! LOL. My flight got delayed 2x and Marc waited up late till i could pick her up. He's just the best.
