“Shannon was amazing! She took great care of my 2 energetic pups and even brought in my mail and washed the sheets before I got home. Highly recommend and will be using her services again. Thank you!!”

“James is a great pet sitter ! I highly recommend James, he took care of my two poodles for 4 nights when I was away. He kept me update on how things were going at my home daily. I was happy to know my dogs were being well taken care of, along with knowing they were in their own home and not in a Kennel. I will definitely use James again.”

“Sade was so compassionate with Max and not rushing him to get to be comfortable with her and gave him time and space. It also helped that Max was in his own home and Sade took care of my place as It were own. Would love to book again with her for future dates.”


About: I have over 15 years of pet sitting experience. What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give to every pet. I take time to understand their routine and personality so they feel comfortable and safe. As a full-time student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my day around pet care. I make time for walks, feedings, and check-ins between classes, and I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits depending on your pets needs. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I’m committed to being reliable and consistent. I follow your pet’s routine closely to keep them comfortable and stress-free, including feeding, walks, and any special care. I keep the home clean and secure, and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention and companionship. I also provide regular updates for peace of mind.
“Sterlin was amazing with my 14 yr old French-bull dog she kept me in the loop with everything.This is her second time watching my boy and I couldn’t of asked for anything better than her. I would highly recommend her to anyone. TY Sterlin for treating my dog as if he were your own. 💗”

About: Been around animals all my life, they care and love i have and the joy it brings is out of this world. Also as i help care for my grandmom and she has had pets growing up. I know it will bring her joy and will take up her time as she sits in the house, if we dont go out for the day. As i work on the week days, i am availble (if nothing pops up) on the weekends, like a friday night untill sunday night if that will work for anybody. And also i do work in the school system so having weeks off for or a couple days off can change my schedule but for now, weekends are best. If pets need care i am here to learn and help, i do offer a yard (sadly is not fenced) but if on a leash your pet will be taken very care of and we be shown love and care.
About: I have never not had a dog as far back as I can remember. I love being around them. From puppies to senior dogs also. As of Dec. 27th I will be working full time, however I can still do walks, drop ins and overnight stays. I can still do morning walks and evening walks. Can walk dogs from a small walk to up to several miles if needed, on a hike and just play ball if needed. I currently do not have a yard to be able to have a dog at my home. Hope to change that in the future as needed
“I was away for three night with no worries after learning what a caring person Lauren was at our meet and greet. Lauren and I went over the pups walking routine and their eating schedule. I was so nervous to leave my babies alone for their first time, but Lauren reassured me that she would give them special care. And that they did. I received several pictures and texts from Lauren over the weekend letting me know they were happy and content. I am very pleased with Lauren’s house sitting services and care for my pups . I highly recommend her and surely will use her services again.”

About: I have had dogs all my life. I would love to share my love of dogs with your pet in my home when you book I’m retired and would love for my dog Ginger to have some company once in a while. She is a very well behaved friendly Labadoodle I have a large fenced in yard and I also like to go on hikes or the park for walks if your pet likes that
“Jesel was wonderful with Lloyd and Tootie. This was our first time leaving them with a sitter, and we were nervous. We came home to two very happy, well-cared-for dogs and a house that was thoughtfully maintained. It was clear they were loved and attended to the entire time we were away. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”

“Katie was great - responsive, friendly, and the animals (a dog and 2 cats) were all well cared for while we were away and clearly very comfortable with Katie. We will use here again without hesitation.”
“Cassie was wonderful and I know we’ll be calling her again soon! She house sat for 2 days. Stella is older and has some health issues. Cassie followed all of our feeding and walking directions, and let us know how she was doing throughout the day, so I didn’t worry. It was nice to be able to relax and enjoy our short vacation!”
About: I’ve had dogs all of my life. I started dog sitting for neighbors and family members when I was 10. I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and ages. I’ve taken care of labs, pitbulls, doodles, yorkies, and other small rescue breeds all ages from puppies to elderly. I’m looking for a job not only for some college money but also for some pet therapy. I can’t go home to see my own dog so it would bring me so much joy to take care of someone else’s. I am a college student so my schedule can be pretty flexible. My schedule is very day to day Monday through Sunday but I have more than enough time to take care of animals for hours at a time if needed. I will follow any instructions given to me. I have no problem cleaning up after a dog if it makes a mess, and I have definitely gotten some dogs in crates with some tricks. I will always make sure the house looks exactly how it did when I got there, and make sure the pup has a clean and comfy place to stay!
About: Im a patient individual which allows me to be compatible with many different types of pet's. Young and always barking? I got it! huge and quiet? Got that one two. Working part time soon, so availability will change in June, but for now I have free availability throughout the week and weekends any time of day. I am a very organized person so please do not expect a mess I will clean up after myself and the fur babies as needed.

About: I have a reactive German shepherd husky mix at home that I am able to handle really well! I also have experience caring for senior dogs and cats! I’m currently in Doctor of Physical Therapy school at Stockton University full time, but have off from class Tuesday, Friday and the weekends. I am happy to come over and take care of your pets. I live in an apartment complex with little yard space, but I love getting outside and would be more than happy to take your pet on long walks if they need extra exercise.
About: I will be brining my daughter 11 years old with me to teach her about responsibility and trust. I as well if allowed by owner will be offering homemade treats with my care for your dogs I am a preschool paraprofessional so I have the whole summer off and would like to fill that time with love and friendship from your babies I have a golden doodle age 4 my familys best friend we feed her better then we eat :) we also make dog food once a month it’s a lot of fun for my 11 year old daughter and I. I look forward to getting to know your babies and spoiling them :)
About: I have experience with cats with health issues and giving medications. My 18 yr old has CKD and a few other issues he gets supplements for that keep him going. I have volunteered with cats at an animal shelter and helped with dog adoption events as a dog handler. My schedule is very open at the moment so I'm available for whatever is needed. I have 3 cats so I do need to be home several times a day to care for them. My cats are indoor only but I take my 18 year old out on a leash on walks around the yard, but he mostly prefers to be carried. I'm happy to take other cats on walks if they are harness trained, or just play with them indoors. Dogs I will walk of course and play with as needed.
“Tracy was great with Benny, I could tell by the pictures that they were having a great time together! She left my house clean and exactly the way I left it. I will be using Tracy again in the future!”

James is THE best. We have booked with him multiple times. He watched our dog and cat while we were out of town for 3 days for a wedding. Our pup loves him and we loved getting updates with pictures. He is our go to for pet sitting and walking needs. Highly recommend him for anyone looking for an attentive and caring experience.
