About: I have had many pet’s growing up and always love taking care of, playing, and having fun with my dogs. As of last year I started giving my time to a near by boarding and day care kennel and have absolutely loved it!!! I am currently a graduate student and working an internship which allows me to care for animals in the mornings and late afternoons. The days I do have class I have marked myself unavailable. I have a fenced in yard and three very friendly dogs who love to run and play! My dogs love to go on walks which I hope I have the opportunity to do with yours as well or play in the yard!
About: I've raised dogs my entire life! Over the last 5 years, I've started house sitting for family friends for upwards of 3-4 weeks at a time, adding cats, bunnies, and birds to the rotation. Currently until the end of June, I will be working about 4 days a week as a substitute teacher. I'm usually out of the house by 6:30a and home around 3:15p. If it's a day where I don't have a job scheduled, then I'm free :) I am very adaptable, reliable, clean and thoughtful when it comes to caring for clients animals, especially in their homes. I will be cognizant of whatever rules and guidelines you lay out for me to make sure your animal is getting the best care!

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust. I’m patient, dependable, and focused on making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m experienced with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, including puppies who need extra patience and consistency as well as senior dogs who may need a gentler routine, medication reminders, or extra attention. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, keeping pets active with walks and playtime, and maintaining routines that help them feel at home. What sets me apart is the genuine attention and care I give every pet. I treat animals like family, provide regular updates and photos, and make sure each pet gets personalized care based on their needs and personality. I am currently working part and time so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pets! I am also very available on the weekends. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities when caring for pets in both my home and a client’s home. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they feel secure and comfortable while in my care. In a client’s home, I make sure pets stay on their normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest to help reduce stress. I keep the environment clean, secure, and calm, and I always double-check doors, gates, leashes, and food instructions for safety. I am also happy to provide regular updates and photos so pet owners can feel confident knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: I’ve been the go-to pet person in my circle since I was 10 years old! What started as helping out neighbors has grown into a lifelong passion for animal care. For over 10 years, friends and family have trusted me with their most important family members because they know I treat every dog and cat as if they were my own. From high-energy puppies to gentle seniors, I’ve worked with dogs of every size, breed, and personality. Whether your pup needs a high-intensity play session or a calm companion to lounge with, I adapt my energy to what they need most. Pet care is my full-time career, so your pets are my #1 priority. Because I don't have a typical 9-to-5, I have a completely flexible schedule. I’m available for mid-day walks, early morning feedings, and overnight stays. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in or constant companionship throughout the day, I can be there. In your home: I strictly follow your pet's existing routine to keep them comfortable. I am vigilant about locking doors, securing gates, and keeping harmful items out of reach. In my home: I have two pet-friendly setups. Depending on your pet's personality, I can host them in a lively home with my two friendly dogs for socializing, or in my second pet-free home if they prefer a quiet, one-on-one environment. Outdoors: I never let dogs off-leash in unsecured areas and always do a quick 'paws-check' on the pavement to ensure it’s not too hot for a walk."
“Tyler was amazing! He answered very quickly on Christmas too, and he was so sweet to Eve and made sure to ask permission before bringing his golden! I’m glad he did our goldens had so much fun on the walk together !”

About: *** I am available to book clients in the area surrounding Ocean City, NJ*** What truly sets me apart from other sitters is my experience, genuine passion for animals, and skills that cater to both ends of the age spectrum.

I'll provide you with timely messages, photos, and even videos of your pet, so you can stay connected and see that they're in good hands. Emergency Preparedness: While I hope it never happens, I am prepared for emergencies. I'll have your contact information, your veterinarian's details, and a plan in place to address any unexpected situations that may arise. Safety and Security: I'll ensure that your home is secure during my visits. Doors and windows will be properly closed and locked. If necessary, I'll also bring in mail, adjust curtains, and perform other tasks to give the appearance that your home is occupied. Initial Consultation: Before the pet-sitting period begins, I'll meet with you and your pet (in person or virtually) to discuss your pet's routine, medical needs, and any specific requirements they may have. Ultimately, I treat your pet as if they were my own, offering the same love, care, and attention I would want for my furry companions.

“Jamie did a fabulous job of taking care of our two kitties Cagney and Charlie while we were on vacation in Disney. She came every day and fed them wet food, refilled their water dishes and cleaned the litter box. I highly recommend her! She’s super cheerful, positive, loves animals, trustworthy and reliable. She sent pictures of the kitties every day while we were gone too. Absolutely loved her and so did our kitties!!”
