House Sitting in Penns Grove

About: I have given care for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I am comfortable with all personality types, and sizes. I also have experience with cats, as an owner and sitter. I currently am dedicated to pet care and services. I currently work part time on a seasonal basis and can dedicate as much time as needed to caring and playing with your pets! I put animals above most else. I have my own dog who is hooked up and supervised when outside. I also have a pet first aid book and carry supplies on me.

“Chris was wonderful! She took excellent care of our dog Bailey and even brought her dog over to play. Her daily pictures and updates were very welcome and gave us a sense of well-being while we were away. We'll definitely use her services again.”

“Heather was absolutely fantastic! She was extremely communicative from start to finish and has such a warm, positive personality. Our Boston Terrier, Lukin, is usually very anxious, but he did great with her — which says a lot! She took wonderful care of both him and our house while we were away. We really appreciated her updates and photos which kept us at ease. I can’t recommend Heather enough — she’s truly awesome and we will definitely be booking her again!”

“Rebecca was our family's godsend. We were on vacation in the middle of a cruise when our original sitter was not working out and needed an emergency back up plan. Though I have never met her despite initial conversations she came to the rescue and was immediately available. We left our pup for the very first time and had an initial horrible experience and she saved the day, followed the schedule and went above and beyond. Rebecca was giving our pup the love and attention we really wanted her to have. She even stayed a little extra on her own accord. She communicated extensively and sent lots of pictures. I just can't believe how lucky we got coming out of a horrible sitter situation, she really made up for that and finally felt at ease on my vacation because of her. I couldn't have asked for someone better and will always highly recommend her. She is someone very reliable that you can count on and will give more love and comfort to all your pets while you are away... trust me you won't have to worry... they would be int the best hands. Moving forward I will always use her services. Thank you again for saving the day for us and Miley, putting us at ease finally during our trip, and just being such a godsend. Miley loves you and thanks you. Honestly Can't thank you enough.”

“Kai and Devon were great pet sitters for us during the week that we were away on vacation! They communicated well with us and provided updates on how our pets were doing. They kept our house clean and even took the time to wash sheets, towels, and blankets before they left. Overall they did a great job for us and we would definitely book them again!”

“Terry is absolutely amazing!! I can’t say enough good things about her and how she went above and beyond in taking care of our two dogs while we were out of town. She loved and cared for them like they were her own, sending us updates and videos each day. We had an amazing vacation and was able to not worry a bit about how the dogs were adjusting - they were so happy and got so much attention with Terry!! She will be the first person we call whenever we need a sitter! Thank you Terry!!”

“Laura was absolutely awesome! Laura truly was the best! She took the very beat care of our home and dogs. Our dogs (who are a bit needy and one special needs) had a smooth and seamless transition into her care. She was thought forward, kind, caring, diligent and followed all our dogs care needs and schedule perfectly. She treated our pups and our home as her own and we are so GRATEFUL! We feel so blessed to have met her and to have her care for our beloved dogs. We were very impressed & our dogs were never so calm upon our return ever. She is wonderful and comes highly recommended and we definitely hope to use her again.”

“Cole was spectacular with our older basset hounds. He was able to get both of them on walks (not easy with one being a little grumpy with new people). Both dogs while happy to see us, didn’t seem like they had been stressed while we were away- a big improvement for us! Cole also kept our home on great order, dealt with a clogged sink, and even watered my plants (without me asking!). We can’t wait to use him again for future times away- the boys seemed to enjoy his presence.”

About: I’ve been around dogs all my life and have always loved being around them. Whenever there’s a dog in the room they are the first I greet! 2022 was when I first started pet sitting for others and have since cared for multiple dogs with different personalities, routines, and needs. I currently care for five different dogs regularly, including two that I watch together. Whenever there’s pet sitting, I stay in the owners home to keep their pets comfortable and maintain their normal routine. I make sure each dog gets plenty of love, attention, and playtime while their family is away. I also believe communication is extremely important, so I provide regular updates with photos and videos to help the owners feel connected and reassured while they’re away from their pets. My goal is to make every pet feel loved, safe, and happy until their owners return. I am currently a part-time college student, so I have a lot of time to be able to check on owners pets when needed. My schedule is pretty open besides Wednesdays, but depending on the situation I can sometimes check in on them on Wednesdays. When caring for pets in a clients home, I make it a priority to keep them on their normal routine so they feel comfort and secure while their owners are away. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding time, walks, medications, playtime, and any other special needs. Safety is a top priority of mine. I make sure doors, gates, and even leashes are secure, and I pay very close attention to every animals behavior and comfort level. I provide plenty of love, attention, exercise, and companionship while respecting the pet’s individual personality and needs. I also respect the owners privacy by keeping household information private and also respecting their homes. I also try to update the owners as much as possible by providing videos, photos, and messages so they can have a peace of mind knowing their pets are happy and comfortable. My goal is to create an stress-free environment for both the owners and the pets. I want the owners to be able to enjoy their trip and not be stressed, while their pets feel safe and comfortable with me.

“Rachel stayed with my pups for five days, and happened to be available at the last minute, which was a huge help. She was timely, communicative, and my dogs took to her right away. I felt very comfortable leaving the dogs in her care. She was responsive, sent super cute pics of the dogs and gave them their meds as instructed. She was even willing to help me get one of the dogs’ meds refilled. Overall, she was a pleasure to work with, and I felt very confident in her capabilities.”

“Janelle was an amazing sitter - she updated daily and sent so many cute photos haha, Juno seemed to really enjoy her time while in her watch - would recommend”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs, both big and small, practically my whole life! I know how to be patient with them and I love to explore their fun-loving personalities! Aside from personal appointments and family commitments I have a pretty open schedule, I love spending time with animals so the more time the better! I always make sure the pet is watched in an enclosed area and pay close attention to their body language to ensure they are comfortable and not anxious or overwhelmed.

“Whitney is wonderful! Her excellent communication, punctuality and competence along with her friendly and kind personality provided me with complete peace of mind to leave my animals for a work conference. My dog and cats loved her; highly recommend!”

“Savannah took great care of our puppies for a few days while staying in our home. Everything was well looked after, and we felt comfortable knowing they were in good hands. She did a good job, and we would definitely call her again in the future.”

About: Back home, I rescued and cared for several dogs while helping them recover and find loving, responsible families. I have always felt a deep connection to animals and enjoy spending time with dogs of different sizes and personalities. I learn quickly and follow instructions carefully to ensure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own, prioritizing their happiness and well-being. I work part-time and online, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to adapt to each pet’s routine and needs. I am available throughout the week and can provide regular attention, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I understand that consistency is important for pets, and I do my best to maintain their usual schedule so they feel comfortable and secure while their family is away. I personally prefer house sitting because pets are often happiest and most relaxed in their own familiar environment. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, preferences, and any special instructions provided by their family. My goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible while providing attentive, loving, and reliable care. If needed, I may be able to host pets in my apartment on a case-by-case basis, but my primary focus is providing care in the pet’s own home where they feel safest and most comfortable.

“Cole did a wonderful job watching our babies while we were away! The dogs adored him and he was very responsive and kept us updated. We will definitely book with him again.”
