Cindy was great! I had a last minute obligation to take care of and she was able to care for Boston at just 10 weeks old (still working on potty training, obedience, etc.). She was very communicative throughout the day and I can tell Boston had a lovely time - will certainly be looking to use Cindy for more in-office days!

Our pup Wicket had a great time staying with Lynn and her family! This was our first time leaving him with someone other than friends/family so we were really concerned but Lynn was the best sitter we could ask for. She provided lots of photo and text updates throughout the week and Wicket was well taken care of. He will probably sleep for a week after all of the playtime he got with Lynn and her dogs. We’d definitely recommend her and will use her again next time we come to LBI.

ait was our first pet sitting experience with our Sheltie who spends little time alone and can be anxious when we go away. Kristen made her feel at home and sent us updates, we felt very comfortable to have chosen her! Highly-recommended pet sitter, we will contact her for our next time away.

About: I work from home and my wife will also be home to make sure your pet will be well supervised at all times. For the last five years we have been taking care of pets for family, friends and even fostered several pets for rescues. I have owned pets for the last twenty years. I recently adopted an 18-month-old dog, who would love playmate. I work from home and my wife is home all day. We have a dog, so taking care of another dog will fit in our routine. I have a fully fenced yard and within the yard, I have a fenced in area for your dog to run and play. My dog Bruno loves other friendly dogs. When in the house, you dog will either stay in the family room with my wife and Bruno or in my office with me.

Overnight stays: accommodations under construction I am able to come to your house and attend your pets. Depending on the circumstance, I may or may not be able to stay overnight. Please inquire.

Jasmine took excellent care of our tiny girl! Our sweet girl is very timid and nervous but loves cuddles and belly rubs once she has warmed up to you. Jasmine was patient and gentle with her and now my pup thinks she has a great new friend to cuddle with and play fetch :-) Will absolutely have Jasmine sit for our sweet girl again!!

About: A true nature lover I love ALL living things! Yes spiders and snakes too. Especially those who can love back . I've rescued and cared for almost every species. Elder dogs and those with health issues. Medications, injections I'm able to deliver it all. My schedule used to revolve around one of my Yorkies 12 hour insulin schedule. I cooked his meals took him for long walks. He loved the water and we spent long hours at the beach. He recently passed at age 15. I'm now willing to share with other pups who need some care and stimulation. I have a large fenced yard and a pool which one of my dogs and another I sit for loves! My other 2 are couch potatoes and are content to lay in the shade although they do enjoy their walks. We exercise rain or shine

About: I have been a dog/cat owner since I was two years old and there is no pet I do not love. I have owned German Shepherds, Australian Shepherds, Mixed breeds, a Papillion, a Great Dane as well as a Himalayan and an Orange Tabby cat. I am able to spend a lot of time with any age pet and treat them as if they’re my own. Being disabled I’m home a lot. I have a fenced in backyard where your dog would be free to run and play. I use a walker. My home has an elevator. Therefore, it is not a problem to let them out frequently. Just let me know what your dog loves and I will make sure they have the best time possible! I do not work. I am disabled. Therefore I’m home a whole lot, probably too much. This enables me to spend quality time with your pet. I have a fenced in backyard. I do not have any dogs or cats of my own. Therefore, I am able to devote all my time and attention to your loved one.

About: I grew up with animals my whole life. I have a passion for pets of all sizes and species. I am excited to be able to help you by caring for your pets while you are away. Your babies will be cared for and loved just as if they were my own. As of right now I will be staying in New Jersey and will be looking for part time work in the mean time, I have such a passion for animals and feel as thought this would be a great way to offer a helping hand. I’m available most days of the week for all of the services that Rover offers. Having dogs of my own, I know how needy some can be and I am here to help Being able to provide healthy food , giving your pet 24/7 access to fresh drinking water, providing a safe cozy shelter, being able to take them for more than 2 walks a day while allowing the pet to get the exercise it needs Pet care has been part of my routine for years, so I’m very used to structuring my days around walks, feedings, and playtime. I currently have a flexible schedule, which means I can accommodate early‑morning potty breaks, midday walks, and evening drop‑ins during the week. On weekends I’m available for boarding and longer stays, and I build my personal plans around the pets in my care so they remain my top priority. Consistency is important to me, so I stick closely to each dog’s normal routine, from mealtimes to bedtime. I treat every pet like my own, and safety is always my first focus after many years of sitting on Rover. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, double‑check leashes, harnesses, and gates, and never let dogs off leash in unsecured areas. My home is pet‑friendly and set up to be safe and comfortable, with clean water always available, cozy spots for naps, and space for supervised play. I’m attentive to body language and behavior so I can catch stress or discomfort early, and I send regular photo and message updates so you always feel informed and reassured. If needed, I can crate your dog for downtime or when I briefly step out, and I’m comfortable managing basic medications and special routines.

About: What sets me apart is my experience caring for pets at every stage of life. I’ve taken care of puppies who need patience, structure, and reinforcement of basic training, energetic adult dogs who thrive on activity and routine, and senior dogs who require a gentler pace, medication awareness, and extra attentiveness. I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s specific needs, whether that means reinforcing potty training, maintaining feeding schedules, administering basic medications, or simply providing calm companionship. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I work fully remote from home and have flexibility in setting my schedule. This allows me to plan my day around walks, feedings, playtime, and any specific care needs your pet may have. I’m home throughout the day, so your pup won’t be left alone for long stretches and can receive consistent attention, bathroom breaks, and companionship. Because I structure my work independently, I can easily adjust my schedule to maintain your pet’s normal routine, whether that means early morning walks, midday play sessions, or evening wind-down time. It’s important to me that pets feel comfortable, engaged, and cared for, not just supervised.

Absolutely love Michael! I trust him 1000000% with my fur baby. Bella is my first dog I've had since living on my own and she is my world. I was so nervous at first and Micheal completely understood, and even let us meet him b4 I left Bella for the day with him. I work very early in the morning, and Michael always greets us with a smile.He is always sending me pictures of her happily playing. Bella was nervous the first day or two but now she wags and runs to him! I would definitely recommend Micheal to anyone!
