Dog Sitting Oceanport

About: I worked at petsmart as a doggie daycare attendant, pretty much just making sure all the dogs were having a good time and that no one got into any trouble; and of course giving them loads of love because I can’t help myself. I also worked with the cats that were being boarded which was awesome. I’m now a full time dog walker / pet sitter which is the best thing in the world. I make it my duty to make sure all the fur babies get just as much love as if they were with their parents. I have a pretty open schedule, so I can make room for your fur babies whenever you need me. I know how important it is that they get the attention and love they deserve, so I’ll be sure to be there as much as I’m able to for them the way I’d be there for my own. I have one dog whom I absolutely adore with my entire heart, and 9 adorable cats who I love tremendously. They’re the lights of my life; my hearts outside of my chest. They’re not my pets and I’m not their owner; they’re my best friends bundled up into cute little furry packages. I can assure you that yours would be that to me as well, and would have the utmost care with me as their caregiver, because I’d treat them as my own I can’t think of a better way to spend my time other than being with one of my little fur buddies , and anytime I get to be out on a walk with one of my guys it’s sure to be a great day I’m always keeping an eye out for anything someone may need or anything that needs to be done to assure everyone has some peace of mind

About: My name Julie Barber and I live in the Oceanport area. I have been a dog owner & lover for many years. Our dogs have brought us a lot of happiness & always considered them as part of the family. After losing our golden/spaniel Chloe to cancer three years ago, I didn't adopt again due to Storm Sandy. So with the move out of my home (after Storm Sandy to lift & rebuild) and living with an 'unknown' timeline, I decided to wait a bit. But when friends and neighbors reached out to me & asked if I would dog-sit, I was happy to help. So this began my love of boarding pets. I'm so glad it did. It felt like a very natural transition fell into my lap! I really do enjoy boarding and caring for my many dog clients* To date I have cared for dozens of lovely dogs and their pet families have been wonderful to meet too. 👍🏼😊🐾

About: If you're like me, pets are an extension of your family, so I Funderstand how much trust goes into having a stranger care for your dogs and cats. With over 10 years of experience, I've handled everything from cleaning and giving medication to daily feeding routines and enriching playtime. Cats and dogs, all sizes and ages, are welcome. I can't wait to meet your furry family member(s). I recently graduated with my Master's degree. I'm enjoying my time off, and saving up for an apartment while job searching, so I am available all, day everyday. I provide care at your home, following your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, whether that entails feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or any medications. I make sure to keep their environment safe and secure (checking doors/gates/fences) and am more than happy to send updates or photos to you at your request so you know how your pet(s) are while you're away.

About: I'm a Division 1 women's rugby player and a huge animal lover! Dogs have always been a big part of my life growing up, and I currently have a 3-year-old Boxer named Rory who is such a character and makes me laugh every single day. On top of my love for animals, I have years of babysitting experience and am in my 6th year as a lifeguard, so keeping a close eye on those in my care comes naturally to me.

About: Back on Rover after a two-year hiatus and excited to meet some new furry friends! I've been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life, and as a dog mom myself, I know pets are family. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving you complete peace of mind. I work from home, so I have the flexibility to provide personalized care, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. Every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and all the little details that make them unique - from their favorite toy, walking route, and feeding schedule to treat preferences, commands, medications, and any fears or anxieties. The more I know, the better I can make their time with me feel like another normal day. I'm dependable, detail-oriented, and will care for your pet as if they were my own. You'll receive regular updates, lots of photos, and open communication every step of the way. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family member! I work a hybrid schedule and am home most evenings and weekends, giving me plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, and quality one-on-one time. I always do my best to accommodate your pet's routine and your scheduling needs. Your pet's safety and comfort always come first. I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and any special needs before our visit. Whether your dog enjoys leisurely neighborhood walks or more adventurous hikes and trails, I'll tailor our time together to their age, health, and energy level while always respecting your preferences.

About: I have extensive hands-on experience working with dogs of all ages, personalities, and behavioral needs.

I previously owned and operated a pet care business in Portland, Maine, specializing in canine enrichment, individualized socialization, and overnight pet sitting. Much of my work focused on dogs who were not a good fit for traditional boarding facilities or standard pet-sitting environments, including dogs with higher energy levels, behavioral challenges, or unique individual needs. My approach is centered on creating a safe, structured, and comfortable environment while taking the time to understand each dog's individual personality and needs. I believe dogs thrive when their physical, mental, and emotional needs are properly met. It is my full-time job, so my weekly schedule revolves around pet care!

About: Animals have been a big part of my life since I was 10 years old. I grew up with a lot of cats and am currently a cat owner. I spent a lot of time caring for my grandfather's German Shepherds growing up, and later looked after dogs all sizes for the families I worked for as a nanny. Flexible on Wednesdays, Fridays and occasional weekends. I will travel to the city but at an extra cost & travel fee. I am able to watch animals at my house but it is small so I’d rather do over nights at owners place when it comes to multiple dogs. If you have a fenced in yard I’ll play fetch with them and tire them out and give them good scratches and snuggles before I leave. If you do not have a fenced in yard there are plenty of dog parks in the area.
