Pet Sitting Oceanport

About: I've rescued all over 50 dogs, have years of pet-sitting experience and love animals of all shapes and sizes! Even skittish pets trust me perhaps because I have a calm personality. I have retired after working at Riverview Medical center for 25 years so I have lots of time to spend with your pet family! I am available most days and/or evenings. I will follow your instructions to the letter- you know what is best for your pet. I will sit with them, feed them, play with them, walk them, administer medicine and/or treats or do whatever is needed to keep them healthy and happy!

“Max did an hour walk with Trey today. Completely a last minute request and he made himself available. Very much appreciated!!! Trey loved Max immediately and was a great walk for him. Would highly recommend Max.”

“Jim was a wonderful fit for us! He came on time everyday, our cats were super friendly with him, he helped with cleaning up the litter and spent time with the cats since we were away for several days. He was very responsive and sent nice updates. I would absolutely trust Jim with watching our cats for future vacations.”

About: Pets are family! I grew up with 3 rescue animals and was the primary caretaker of a senior dog for 4 years. I co-fostered and pet-sat cats and dogs in college, and have been an ASPCA volunteer. I prioritize safety and comfort for all animals under my supervision! I work from home Tuesday-Friday and have a fairly flexible schedule to walk and visit for check-in's throughout the day. I am typically not available Friday nights and Saturdays. If I am visiting your home, please provide access instructions and a description of where your pet's toys, treats, and other items are in your home! Please also provide the location of any cleaning supplies in case there were any potty accidents.

“Frances did a fantastic job of caring for our cats while we were on vacation. With 3 Rescues inside and 2 TNR's outside, it's not easy to find someone to take that on. Everything went great and she kept us informed with texts & pics after each visit. She made our vacation so much more enjoyable.”

About: My wife and I share a love of dogs and have raised many throughout our lives. We will provide a safe and loving environment for your pet. We offer personalized care that meets the needs of your dog, making our home, their home, away from home. We have experience administering medications, caring for senior dogs, taking dogs for walks and have a fenced in yard for active pups. We are recently retired and currently do not have a dog. We have no children living at home, although we have an active home with many dog loving grandchildren that visit and since they all have their own dogs, will love playing with yours. We are currently retired and have time to dedicate to your pet. We enjoy being outside and would love to spend time with your dog by either walks, playing in the yard or visiting the park. Our home is pet friendly, allowing your dog to roam freely. We have a fenced in yard for play and a deck that dogs enjoy sunning themselves on. Going for a walk, taking time to understand your dogs needs and just spending time with your dog is our priority.

About: Hi, I’m Vincent. I’m a U.S. Marine Corps & U.S. Army veteran and lifelong dog owner based in Monmouth County, New Jersey. Dogs have been a major part of my life for as long as I can remember. I extensive experience handling all size and high-energy breeds that require structure, exercise, and consistency. I provide dog walking and drop-in visits focused on safety, reliability, and your dog’s individual needs. Whether your dog needs a quick potty break, a neighborhood walk, playtime, feeding, medication reminders, or simply companionship while you’re away, I will treat them like one of my own. My military background taught me attention to detail, accountability, and professionalism. You can expect clear communication, punctual service, and regular photo updates during every visit. I am currently furthering my canine education through the CATCH Canine Trainers Academy and continuously learning about dog behavior, enrichment, and proper handling techniques. I look forward to meeting you and your dog and becoming someone you can trust whenever you need help caring for your pets. I currently work part-time and offer dog walking and drop-in visits around my work schedule. I am available all day on Mondays, after 2:30 PM on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and have limited availability on Thursdays. I strive to be dependable, punctual, and responsive when scheduling visits. Whether your dog needs a midday walk, evening exercise, feeding, or a drop-in check, I will communicate clearly and work to accommodate your pet’s needs whenever possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a veteran and dog owner, I understand the importance of consistency, attention to detail, and following instructions. During every visit, I carefully follow your pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), exercise requirements, and any special instructions. I always ensure doors, gates, and leashes are secure and provide photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own.

“Stephanie was able to help us in such a loving way with our two cats. She was responsive and very loving and caring will definitely hire her back.”

About: I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages and energy levels, from playful puppies who need patience and structure to senior pets who require a gentler routine and extra attention. I understand how important it is to keep pets comfortable in their normal environment, and I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I work a serving job at night, which leaves my mornings, afternoons, and much of the evening available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, feedings, and quality time with pets. My schedule is flexible during the day, so I’m able to give pets consistent attention and stick closely to their normal routines. I’m also very active, so I enjoy spending time outdoors with dogs and making sure they get plenty of exercise and engagement. In a client’s home, I respect the pet’s routine and the owner’s instructions closely because I know pets are most comfortable in familiar environments. I’m attentive to behavior changes, medication schedules if needed, and making sure pets get enough activity and companionship throughout the day.

“Kamryn was great. She was on time and responsive. I know I can rely on her which puts me at ease. Will definitely be using her services again.”

“Olivia has been great with my goldendoodle. She helps my out a few times a week while I am at work. I don’t trust many people with my baby and I trust her! Not only am I happy with her but my girl LOVES her. It is a great feeling knowing that your dog is in good hands. It is such a relief to have found her to help me out.”

About: I’ve become the go-to person among my friends for pets that need extra care or have specific routines. I understand how important consistency is, and I’m very mindful of maintaining each dog’s normal schedule. As a dog owner myself, I truly empathize with how it feels to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I prioritize clear, thoughtful communication—keeping you updated and reassured, while also giving you peace of mind to enjoy your time away. I currently work part-time while attending school through a hybrid online program, giving me a flexible schedule to provide your pups with the care and attention they deserve. I truly love being around dogs! 🐶🤍 I’m very mindful and respectful of a dog’s home environment and personal space. I take my time building trust and focus on creating a calm, safe presence so they feel comfortable and secure.

About: After spending nearly a decade as a nurse, I decided it was time to make a career shift to do what I really love, which is working with animals. I am a full-time pet sitter, bonded & insured. I've been caring for others for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family home was affectionately known as "the zoo." Dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish... you name it, we probably had one. I'm comfortable administering medications, caring for senior pets, and supporting animals with more complex medical needs. My background in healthcare was so valuable in teaching me the importance of empathy, patience and compassionate care, and now I get to share those qualities with each and every animal that I work with. Whether your pet needs a walk, medication, or just a trusted friend while you're away, I'll care for them as if they were my own. I can't wait to meet your furry, feathered, or scaly family members! I am a full-time, professional pet sitter and have open availability to help take care of your pets! Once you have completed a meet & greet, same-day requests are available as well. Every pets has different needs and I will make sure to follow your pets schedule as closely as possible. At the meet and greet we will discuss how frequently your pet needs go potty, have their litter changed, feeding schedules, medication, etc and keep you up-to-date on everything that happened during our visits.

About: I’ve been a lover and caretaker of animals my whole life. I currently reside in the JP with my dog, Jackson and boyfriend. I work from home and am finding myself with some spare time and would love to help care for your pets when needed. Since I work from home, I can help with walks during lunch or after work. I am also open to boarding too or watching your dog at home! I have a one bedroom apartment with a small outdoor space. If boarding, we would go on plenty of walks. My dog Jackson loves other dogs too and would be happy to do a meet and greet beforehand.
