Dog Sitting Point Pleasant Beach

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and currently have two of my own. I work at a doggy daycare where I care for dogs of all sizes and breeds, and I’m the go-to dog sitter in my family. I have experience walking, feeding, bathing, and making sure pets are happy, safe, and well cared for. I genuinely love being around dogs and treating them like family. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I already work with dogs and care for pets regularly. On weekends, I’m available after 1 PM and can dedicate plenty of time to walks, visits, and playtime. During the week, I work and attend school, but I’m available in the afternoons on Mondays and in the evenings on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I’m used to planning my schedule around pet care and always make sure the pets I’m caring for receive reliable attention and consistent care. When I care for your pet in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible while you’re away. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of walks and playtime, and always have fresh water. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs so they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for in their own environment. I currently work at a doggy daycare and have dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they receive lots of attention, care, and love while you’re gone.

About: I grew up with a standard poodle who stole my heart from the very beginning. He was truly my best friend and sparked my lifelong love of dogs. As an adult, our family had a Wheaten Terrier for 13½ years, and he was the most royal member of our household. I have a hybrid work schedule and get much of my exercise walking in between work sessions, so daily walks and outdoor time are a natural part of my routine. I’m also fairly flexible with my schedule, which allows me to give dogs the attention they deserve. Over the years, I’ve cared for many friends’ dogs and genuinely enjoy having them around, whether they’re calm companions or full of playful energy. Our home is a warm, relaxed environment where dogs are treated like part of the family. Your dog will be treated like part of our family. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as I work from home most days of the week and enjoy power walks in between work sessions. Walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship easily fit into my schedule. Since I work from home on my computer, pets are rarely left alone and can relax nearby while I work, giving them plenty of attention throughout the day. I follow each pet’s normal routine, providing walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention so they feel comfortable, safe, relaxed, and well cared for.

About: I’m a lifelong animal person that’s - family always includes a dog or three! I’m familiar with many characters… the mush, the anxious, the energetic, or even the yapper. From growing up always being a co dog mom to my recent certification with Guiding Eyes for the Blind to sit and train seeing eye pups, I’d love to be a trustworthy friend for your four-legged family member(s)! Little note - vegan for 7+ years, so you know I truly love animals;) I’m a returning intern at a local firm, which gives me some flexibility and keeps me within close proximity. I’m a morning person, can make myself available for a midday visit, and am always happy to stop by after the work day. If you need help on the weekend, I’m absolutely here for you! I can promise I’ll not only take care of your pup’s needs but also become their best play buddy. As I said before, I’ve grown up around and have loved many characters, so I’m comfortable getting to know any pup.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my own and family/friends for the past 5 years and I have been caring for and fostering cats for the last 3 years. I grew up with pets and love all animals! I am currently between jobs and therefore have extra time to care for fur babies which I am very passionate about! Happy to accommodate your needs! Eager to provide love, safety and security for your pets the way you like it! Happy to fulfill your needs with added cuddles and love for your fur baby!

About: I have taken care of cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, lizards, fish and frogs personally and used to care for dogs and cats at my job at Garden State Veterinary Hospital. I am doing pet sitting full time currently because I enjoy the flexibility of the job. I also want to save up money as I’m considering going back to school to be a vet tech. I will do my best to keep your pets safe in your home and when out for walks. I will treat them like my own.

About: Need a responsible adult to take care of your fur babies? Going away for the weekend and need someone to feed the cats & check on the house? Heading out after work but need to let the dog out? (Cue the music...)That's me! I grew up with dogs and a hamster, then adopted 2 cats out of college. Now married with 2 children, we are sharing our lives and home with our elderly German-Shorthaired-Point (adopted in 2010). In addition, I have helped my neighbors by taking their dogs for walks and dropping in to feed their 3 cats while they were away for the weekend. Spending time with animals makes my heart happy. Please consider me to help care for your pet. I am currently offering drop-in visits or Dog-Walking. I have a full-time job September to June (Monday - Friday), so my availability is on the weekends. However, July & August, I am available 7 days a week. I am currently offering drop in visits or dog-walking. My goal is to follow all directions provided, especially in maintaining routines, ensuring safety through secured environments, and providing some time for companionship. Key tasks by the pet owner can include feeding, administering medication, exercising, and cleaning up any messes. I will also maintain communication with the pet owner with updates.

About: I had a lab and weinerdog when I was little into my teens. We got our pit when I was 11. He's a senior now. And currently I have 2 cats if my own. One of my cats takes a med every night while the other one needs a butt wipe and grooming. I work full time as a para at a school for disabled, and part time ABA therapy for kids with autism. I'm hoping to fit in hours during the weekend and during school holidays. I feed, groom, clean litter boxes, and administer meds to my cats. My male cat is very playful, while my female cat all she wants is to be brushed constantly. Growing up I had a very feister daschound who played a lot, even in her old age. Generally I'm comfortable with whatever your pet might require.

Throughout my career, I’ve handled thousands of dogs, including puppies, seniors, anxious pets, and dogs with special needs. My experience allows me to recognize changes in behavior, monitor for health concerns, and provide calm, confident care.

With over 8 years of professional experience working with dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments, I am comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, and dogs with special needs. I carefully follow feeding instructions, medication schedules, exercise routines, and household rules. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to create a calm, safe, and stress-free experience while you’re away.

About: Greetings! As a dog owner for most of my life, until recently, I know that ensuring your Pup is well cared for can be the #1 biggest concern of your workday/holiday or any time you’re separated. If you're anything like me then you have undoubtedly spent THOUSANDS on making sure they receive only the best care. My doggy resume: Previous owner of Duke, my cairn terror, who was amazing with people, but terrible with other animals. He had to be leashed at all times and we had to stay clear of other dogs, squirrels and so on. Loved him. I also have experience with an American Pit Bull. She was so loving too and she happened to be deaf. I learned a lot loving and loving her. A few items we will touch base on before our meet and greet: 1. Is your dog a rescue? Do they potentially have an unfortunate history. If so, what is that history and let’s find a way to navigate it, if possible: 2. Are there any medications that will need to be administered? How and when? Do you have a method to do so (pill in food or treat). We don't want them missing anything important. 3. Dietary habits and needs while under my care. Besides time and amount, anything unusual? Or imperative? 4.How frequently does your dog tend to need outside trips? Are they house broken? Tibia okay if not, we all have to learn at some point. Is there a behavior I should be looking out for, it is out of scheduled time? 5. Let's talk walks: Leashes, harnesses, dog parks,other dogs and everything in-between. 6. A typical day in the life; on or off furniture, chewing shoes, rules, other behaviors, do's and dont's. We are open to it all. 7. While an emergency is unlikely, let's set a plan. I'm a Retired small business owner of 20 years. My days are open enough to to help with last minute, emergencies, planned and even separation anxiety pups. I can stay in if needed. If no schedule is given, I will typically follow the below plan: Walks will be first thing in the morning, lunch (12:30-1:30) and in the evening. Breaks needed is fine too! I'm available Monday through Sunday Open to Drop-off and pickup times, but not after 9pm. If you need some added flexibility we can definitely discuss that. I can come to your home for a pickup or drop-off. Our home is bright and airy and we have w big backyard. No rugs, no kids….My mom lives two blocks away with a big backyard with a pool, if your Pup likes the water. And orchard park dog park is a walk away if allowed. One of the biggest CONS of transitioning from a 60 hour work week for 20 years to sitting at home and walking with just the two of us. Because of this, I go on daily walks to the dog park, where we sit for awhile and watch them play. I'm hoping your dog will finally give me a reason to go into the dog park. If dog parks isn't your dogs thing, I can head to a more residential route. Don't worry, I'll be sure to send you a picture or video. And I will make sure to keep open communication, with updates. My days and evenings are open! Monday-Sunday. Nothing in my schedule lasts over 3 hours, so I am pretty much open for your Pup’s needs. I follow directions about the care of your dog to perfection. We have a big backyard, if granted by you, because there’s no fence. We have two bedrooms they can stay in, or they can stay in ours, or in a crate! We are so flexible. There is a dog park we can walk to if allowed. We also have access to my mother’s pool, if allowed, she is within walking distance and her backyard is fenced. Big area to run around and hang out. We have no kids, which makes it even easier!

About: I've taken care of various types of pets like birds, cats, and dogs. My experience mainly comes from family and friend requests; however, I am very passionate about taking care of pets and do my best to make sure they are happy! I have a rescue dog who I have trained to not chew on shoes, do some tricks, be gentle when grabbing treats, and to wait when getting food. I'm currently enrolled in an in-person summer class which means that on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, I am only available after 1pm. I also work part-time over the weekends so my schedule varies. Despite this my schedule is pretty flexible and I am able to move around work hours to make sure your pets are well taken care of! :) While I do not offer boarding in my own home, I will make sure your pets are well cared for in the comfort of your home. Whether that includes indoor and outdoor playtime, walks, feeding, or extra attention and affection, I will make sure your pets receive the care they need. I love animals of all kinds and will treat your pets with patience, kindness, and responsibility. I will also keep your home clean and tidy while ensuring all instructions and routines are followed carefully.

About: I am a Chef and animal lover. It is my passion to nourish & take care of people, and this certainly extends to our furry friends. I have an English Bulldog named Luca and he is extremely adored. I am very active. I go for 3 mile walks minimum daily, and I would love to bring your dogs along! I also enjoy time at home, where I can be a great companion for them there as well - playing or sharing space. Any of your pets special needs are safe with me, I will care for them as my own! I hope we can spend time together soon! I work at a bakery so I am out of work between 2-3:30 everyday at the latest. I am always off on Sundays and only work 4 days out of the week. I go into work between 6-9 am. I have a small fenced yard outside my apartment building. I am very close to a park I can take them to. I will allow animals on my couch, but of course I will set boundaries if this is not something you want to become a habit. I will give them as much play time and love as they please. I can also respect that some animals just want you to be there for company and I can do that as well.

“This was Lisa's first drop-in visit with Bogey, who is a rescue , previously abused, and normally reserved around new people. He and Lisa got along very well. She took the time to meet Bogey in advance, arrived on time, and obviously cared about making him comfortable, something that is not easy to do. I was very pleased with the care Lisa gave him, and I will be scheduling her in the future. It is my hope that she will be my "go to" person when I need a dog sitter.”

“Caroline did a fantastic job caring for our animals! She was always on time and went above and beyond just checking in on them. She walked and tired out our very energetic, 2 year old Vizsla and made sure our outdoor cats were brought inside and out of the cold/snowy weather! We would absolutely use Caroline again.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life and have experience dog sitting for friends and family. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, and making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and treat every dog as if they were my own, providing plenty of attention, patience, and care. Here’s a professional response you can use on Rover: I recently transitioned away from my full-time job, which means I now have a very flexible schedule and much more availability for pet care. I’m able to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, daycare, boarding, and last-minute requests throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holidays. Caring for pets is my priority, so I can provide reliable, attentive care and work with your schedule to meet your pet’s needs. I look forward to giving every pet the love, attention, and exercise they deserve! I will care for your dog according to their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and at home. This includes feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, regular walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention and affection. If your dog is crate-trained, I can safely crate them when needed and follow any specific instructions you provide. My goal is to make sure every dog in my care feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

“Adrianna went above and beyond my expectations! Ruby and Pearl are so well adjusted I’m not sure they missed me. Adrianna did everything I asked in caring for the girls food, water, attention, litter box and my home is clean as the day I left! She updated me daily while I was away so I could see how happy Ruby and Pearl were while I was on vacation. This means a lot so I was able to relax. I would highly recommend Adrianna!”

“Kate is wonderful with my Sherlock. She is reliable & most of all trustworthy to take care of my dog. I immediately liked her when we met for our meet & greet. I would highly recommend her to all my dog parents! Thank you Kate!”

About: As a full-time Realtor who works from home, I offer your dog something most sitters can’t, constant companionship. Your pup won't be waiting by the door for a 5:00 PM return, they’ll be my co-worker all day! Enjoying a flexible schedule that prioritizes their needs. I’m an naturally active person and a local expert on our neighborhood. My home is perfectly situated right across the street from a park and just a short stroll from the Arnold Avenue strip, meaning our daily walks are filled with new sights and great energy. Whether your dog prefers quiet desk-side naps or high-energy outdoor adventures, my professional flexibility allows me to tailor the day to their specific personality. You get the peace of mind that comes with a responsible professional, and your dog gets a fun, active, and fully supervised home away from home. Because I am a Realtor with a home-based office, my schedule is designed around being present and responsive. Your dog becomes my shadow throughout the workday; while I’m handling contracts and calls, they are enjoying supervised indoor playtime or napping right by my desk. My routine is naturally active, and I break up my work blocks with frequent outdoor excursions. Since I live right across from the park and steps from Arnold Ave, we head out for multiple walks a day to stretch our legs and get some fresh air. My professional flexibility means I can easily adjust my 'office hours' to accommodate your dog’s specific feeding, potty, or exercise needs. Whether it's a mid-morning stroll or an afternoon adventure, your pup is integrated into a consistent, high-energy, and fully supervised daily flow. In my home, your dog is my full-time office companion. Since I work from my desk throughout the day, your pup enjoys constant supervision and plenty of 'desk-side' affection. Our routine is built around our incredible location—we take frequent breaks to head across the street to the park or stroll down toward Arnold Ave for some fresh air and socialization. My home is a calm, professional environment where your dog can relax in their favorite spot while I work, punctuated by high-energy outdoor adventures to keep them happy and tired.

“Donna is great! Super reliable and great with our pup!”

About: I am a lifelong animal lover, and have over 10 years experience in petsitting! Every single animal I’ve gotten to know leaves a lasting impression on me. I have had dogs my entire life, and have been through every stage of life with them. As well as the extra care that comes with them — whether it be medicine, extra potty breaks, feeding routines, messes, or whatever they need. I know how important it is to show love and attention to our pets from puppy to senior. I carry that love and responsibility with me to new pets I meet and care for! I understand what a privilege it is to be trusted with them, and it’s something I really take to heart that clients have trusted me to do. Our “pets” are our family! My priority is making sure you and them feel comfortable and safe during the time I get to spend with them. Every pet has their own quirks and routines, and learning those things are one of the things I enjoy most about doing this. I have two dogs, Koda and Kavik! My sister takes over while I am away. They both have plenty of quirks, but it makes them who they are and I wouldn’t trade it for the world. I’ve spent time from a few days to a month with dogs and cats, ranging from a single pet to four of each! All different types, sizes, and ages. Each and every one of them were a pleasure and I appreciate the trust that comes with having someone look after them and stay in your home! Please reach out for any further details or questions! I’m happy to answer and want to make sure you are comfortable. I currently have plenty of open time to spend with your animals! I have my own dogs, but live with family who share the caretaking responsibilities. I keep a safe and clean environment for your pets to roam or crate them if needed. I have experience administering medication and taking care of dogs and cats that need special attention and care. I like to take detailed notes and pictures on how you prefer your pet to be taken care of to make sure I’m taking care of them and on top of your pets needs.

“Annette was wonderful with our Golden Retriever. Hudson can be timid at first but she was patient with him and won him over in no time. She was punctual and took great care of him - we will definitely use Annette again in the future!”
