House Sitting in Rumson

“Kamryn was great! Arya went crazy and was so excited when she arrived. She fed her and kept me updated through the night. Highly recommend and will be booking with her again!!”

“Maggie does a great job. The dogs love her. They are happy to see her and sad to see her go. They and we look forward to seeing her again. Really reassured when she's with the dogs while we're away.”

About: I started caring for dogs and cats when I was 8 years old, watching my neighbors pets when they were away. My college degree in Animal Science taught me the background information needed to care for medically complex animals, such as dogs with diabetes or cats with FeLV or FIV. I have experience administering injections, giving pills, wound care, and other medical treatment. If you’re looking for an experienced pet sitter to care for your beloved friend, look no further! I work remotely and can spend as much time with your pet as you need. On the weekends I have even more flexibility! Any time you need someone to take care of your pet, I’ll be available. I take safety very seriously and take precautions to ensure the safety of your pet and my own safety. When I first meet your pet, I introduce myself very slowly and pay close attention to body language. When pet sitting in someone else’s home, I always double check locks while entering the home and leaving to ensure that no strangers can enter and no pets can get out.

“Jenny was incredible when staying at our home and caring for our dog, Stella, and two cats, Fred and George! She was especially wonderful with Stella, who is slow to warm up to strangers. Jenny took her time and figured out how to win Stella's heart! Fred and George warmed up to her right away. She sent consistent updates throughout her stay and followed care instructions to a T. She also went above-and-beyond to give Stella extra walks for bonding. Our house was immaculate when we got home. We cannot recommend Jenny enough!!”

“We can't say enough good things about Chelsey. She was absolutely wonderful with our fur baby, Gertie. It was clear from the moment we met that Gertie was comfortable and happy with her, and when we returned, it was obvious Gertie had a blast! Not only did Chelsey take incredible care of Gertie while we were out of the country, but she also left our home spotless. We truly had peace of mind knowing both our beloved pet and our house were in such capable hands. We highly recommend Chelsey and will definitely be booking her again!”

“Alley was with our Abby at our home for two weeks while we were on vacation. During that time we had some very strong storms which our pup doesn’t do well with. Alley was able to manage Abby‘s anxiety and was very communicative with us throughout the entire two weeks. We are very happy with the care Alley provided for Abby. In addition, Alley took care of our mail my plants and our home Alley went above and beyond to ensure our homecoming was quite pleasant to completely clean home, she even washed the bedding in the room she stayed in. Thank you Alley for your time and efforts on our behalf. We will surely call on you again!”

“Angelica was so attentive to Max, our 13 week Cavapoo. I got lots of photos and video throughout the weekend. He was so happy playing and snuggling with Angelica and didn’t have any accidents on the rugs. I would recommend Angelica without reservation. She left the house tidier than it was before the weekend!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life and can’t imagine it any other way! I’m the proud pet parent of a playful 3-year-old shepherd (Atlas, the black doggy of my profile!), so I know how important it is to give pets the love, exercise, and attention they need. I have experience caring for pets of all kinds, including administering medication when needed. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or just some extra cuddles, I’ll treat your furry friend like my own. I work full-time in a hybrid role, which means I’m often at home and have the flexibility to fit pet care into my day. I’m available for occasional drop-ins, walks, and other visits throughout the week, and my weekends are always wide open for extra time with your pets. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. When caring for pets in your home, I make sure to follow your routines and instructions closely so your furry friend feels secure and well looked after. In my own home, while I don’t have a fenced backyard, I make up for it with multiple daily walks and plenty of playtime. I live in a very dog-friendly community, so your pet will enjoy safe, enriching outings and lots of love and attention.

“Kayla was amazing! She kept us informed and we felt comfortable the entire time she was with our dog, we’ll definitely be using her again in the future!”

Martina F.

“Morgan was amazing. She was constantly sending updates and pictures of Rigs and I never had to worry for a single second. And my house was cleaner than I left it when I got home. I will definitely be using Morgan again!!!”

About: I have experience training and caring for dogs and cats. I Specialize in dogs with hearing issues/ deafness. Both of my dogs are graduates of multiple behavioral and obedience classes resulting in our therapy certifications. We visit a multitude of schools, hospitals and other wellness centers. All volunteer work done by my companions and myself is strictly a passion and non profit. I was inspired by a visitation to my grandfather by a golden retriever, when my grandfather was in the hospital for open heart surgery. Seeing my grandfathers reaction to a dog visitation while he was in the hospital was a monumental moment for me that further inspired my passion and drive to work with dogs. I currently work early mornings for a government agency as an officer which gives me a lot of available free time at off times of the day and week. Making me readily available to care for your pets . A fenced yard is a must. My dogs are trained and raised to be curious and outgoing, thus a fence is needed. Although my dogs don’t need a leash, I find it’s necessary to generally have a leash attached. I allow my dogs to be curious, and put there noses where many wouldn’t generally allow. It’s important to always cover your stove switches/ burners with dog safety devices!. But ultimately I strongly believe in allowing your dogs and pets to be curious and open to learning. Dogs and cats alike are much smarter then most realize, and I believe this is there first time living as well.. and deserve the best experiences life has to offer!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. While most of that time was with my dogs I have also looked after my friends and family members pets as well for a while too. Not only that but i usually get along great with a bunch of dogs. I love playing with the little guys that are really hyper, the big dogs who don’t know their own strength but are very sweet, and the lazy ones who just want some love and need a little encouragement to get up and move around. Right now I’m currently free, so I have plenty of time to take care of pups, but I will let you know if I have an event coming up that leaves me unavailable a certain day or if their is a change to my schedule. Personally I think it’s better to care for pets at a client’s home due to the fact my dogs have trouble bonding with the other dogs, not because they are mean but because they are used to new dogs. I usually however will make sure that when I visit that the dog either gets outside or eats first, depends on what they need most. I will stay for a bit to play with them and pet them and if they had an accident in the house I will make sure to clean it up before I leave.

“Samantha is kind patient and reliable. I would recommend her to any and all pet owners!”

“Thank you for doing such a great job watching Rocky. He really enjoyed his time with you!”

About: I have volunteered at an animal shelter for 8 months, taking care of cats, dogs, bunnies, and anything that came through those doors. I have dealt with waste, scratches (thankfully not bites). I love to get outside and move and pets are a great way to do that, however, I don’t have any of my own right now so I’m excited at the chance to walk and interact with others! I work 7am-3:30pm Saturday - Wednesday. Therefore I am free in the early afternoons and on Thursday and Friday. I love to get exercise so I will walk as long or as little as your fur baby needs. I am good at following instructions. I can not have pets where I am so I can only do at home care. With that being said, I will ensure to follow any/ everything your fur baby needs.

About: Hello there! I’ve been a caretaker of animals big and small—furry, feathered, scaly, and everything in between—for as long as I can remember. Whether it's a playful pup or a senior kitty, I approach every pet with compassion, patience, and respect for their unique personality. I have extensive experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. My late Samoyed, Mackenzie, was my pride and joy—I raised her from puppyhood and later cared for her through diabetes, administering insulin and giving her the support she needed to thrive. These days, the current love of my life is Tucker, a Poodle/Bichon mix with a heart of gold. I’ve trained him to be a model canine citizen—he’s friendly with other dogs, gentle with kids, and so well-behaved that neighbors stop just to say hello! I know every pet is different, and I’m happy to tailor my care to what your animal loves most—whether that’s belly rubs and cuddles, long adventurous walks, a vigorous game of fetch, or simply hanging out together in the backyard. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. Let’s chat about how I can help care for your beloved companion! I recently moved to the area and am not currently working full-time, so I am available to provide 24 hour care for your pets with occasional brief periods out of the house. My home is a puppy paradise - there are dog beds scattered throughout the house along with several baskets filled to the brim with stuffed toys and balls, so your precious pup can lounge or play as much as they want. I allow dogs on the couch and they are always welcome in bed, but if your dog prefers a crate to feel safe, you can either bring your own or I can provide a large crate that they can use during their time at my home. My backyard is not fully fenced so I would not allow them outside off-leash, but there are two amazing parks nearby that are perfect for walks and a good sniff or two. If you are comfortable with it, I would also be happy to bring your dog to the Wolf Hill Off-Leash Dog Park for socialization.
