About: I offer boarding and drop-in care here in Delmar, Our fenced-in yard gives pups plenty of room to run, play, and explore. My goal is to give every pup the attention, structure, and care they deserve—whether that means reliable boarding while you’re away, daily drop-in visits to keep them happy and active, or training to help them thrive. I’m committed to making life easier for you and ensuring your dog enjoys every moment in my care. Pet care is woven into our everyday routine—it’s not just a service, it’s part of our lifestyle. Pet care and training is the heartbeat of the home! I have a fenced in yard and a variety of crates and playpens to keep your pup safe. We do require a meet and greet.

“Megan is such a great, caring, knowledgeable and trusted petsitter. She has done drop-in visits for our two cats for the past several years. She is experienced with giving medicine which has become super important to us since our cat was diagnosed with a medical condition and needs medicine twice a day now. I would highly recommended her.”

“I was honestly in a panic when I messaged Christine last minute because the sitter I had booked months in advance suddenly couldn’t watch my dogs anymore. Christine responded so quickly and completely saved the day! She truly is a star and took such great care of my babies. I didn’t even have time to do a meet and greet beforehand, and I still felt completely comfortable with her. She was amazing from start to finish. Thank you so, so much for saving me and my dogs! ❤️ I would absolutely book with her again!”

About: My husband and I have a dog named Jax, he just turned 7 and is such a goofball. We have taken care of dogs for a long time now and Jax loves having friends over! Sean works from home so we are able to give your dog plenty of breaks. Our day normally consists of 2 good walks morning and night, an afternoon quick walk and potty breaks in between! We live in an apartment along Washington Square Park, so we walk the park every day! We try on days off to find trails around to get out as well!

“Steph (Net) really stepped up for my family during a tough time. Our dog Luna passed right before a family vacation. We felt guilty leaving our other pup, Howie but Steph spoiled him rotten. He got so many treats, kisses, and walks under her care. There are not enough words to thank her for giving him comfort during this transition. She is kind, punctual, and leaves the best report cards after each visit!”

About: I have taken care of all different types of pets since I was young. I’m very comfortable administering medication to those who need it, playing with the young energetic animals, and being sensitive to older ones who may need extra care. I currently work full-time but I am one a hybrid schedule so I am home all day on Monday, Thursday, and Friday. I usually have things to do on the weekends but with enough notice I can certainly work around that. I have one 3 year old cat who is very friendly, quiet, and a bit of a cuddle bug. He is comfortable with other dogs and cats. I have a fenced in porch and a walkable safe neighborhood.

About: I not only love caring for animals, but learning all their quirks and personalities. I am very familiar with the patience and love it takes to care for seniors, and the space many animals want from humans (especially new ones). I am happy to meet them where they’re at and hopefully brighten up their day! I have lots of experience with giving pills, special diets, etc. as well. I learn fast and take animal care very seriously. I’m currently working part time and studying to apply for grad school, so I have plenty of time! I often am doing one of my many hobbies or spending time with loved ones, which can easily be shared with your little loves too. At home, I am vigilant about dangers for my cat when I am not around and triple check to make sure she is safe and she can’t get into anything. My main priorities are to make sure she is healthy, happy, and enriched!

About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience with dogs of all ages and personalities. I’ve volunteered at a dog shelter, cared for my own dog Missy for 9 years, and worked part-time at Camp Bow Wow (located in Bound Brook, NJ). This background helps me create a safe, structured, and positive environment where your dog can relax, have fun, and feel well cared for. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to fit pet care into my weekly routine. I’m able to schedule visits, walks, and drop-ins around my work hours, so your pet can get consistent attention and care. I plan my days with your pet’s needs in mind, making sure they stay on their usual feeding, play, and walk schedule while you’re away. I care for pets by following their usual routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest so they feel secure and comfortable. I pay close attention to their behavior and body language, give them plenty of affection and enrichment, and keep their space clean and safe. I also stick closely to any instructions you provide, from favorite toys and treats to specific schedules, to make sure your pet’s day feels as normal and stress-free as possible.

About: As a college student who grew up with five dogs, I’ve always had a deep love for animals. I understand the importance of making sure your furry (or hairless) family member feels safe and happy while you’re away. With my background in dog behavior and safety, including handling aggression and territorial issues, you can trust that your pup will be in caring and capable hands. I’ve also worked in a doggy daycare, managing groups of 50-60 dogs, so I know how to keep things calm and fun! Whether it’s a peaceful walk along the best local trails or lots of cozy care, I’ll treat your dog like my own, always. Your pup’s safety and comfort are my top priorities and I look forward to meeting them!! 💅🐾💗 My flexible schedule allows me to offer plenty of availability for walks and sitting. On Mondays and Wednesdays, and Fridays I’m available early mornings, afternoons, and evenings. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I’m available before 10:30 a.m. and after 2:15 p.m. On the weekends, I’m fully available for walks, sitting, or even adventure hikes, whenever!! No matter the time, your pup will have my full attention and care. Safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are my top priorities when caring for your dog(s) while at your home. I create a calm, secure space tailored to your dog’s unique needs. I’m highly attuned to their behavior, recognizing signs of stress or discomfort, and always respond with care. At your home, I follow your routine to keep things familiar for your pup, providing consistent care and attention. With my background in dog safety and behavior, including experience from small elderly dogs to large groups, you can trust that they will be okay in a variety of situations :)

“Petra is an amazing and loving dog sitter. She helped my family take care of our 3 dogs during the month of March. Petra played fetch with our dogs, walked them down to our stream, and took care of our cavalier’s eyes. She really went above & beyond with our pups, she sent tons of pictures during all of her visits. We are so grateful to find her! We would highly recommend Petra to anyone needing animal services. She is wonderful and so caring! She even let our chickens out as well!”

About: I have over 15 years of hands-on pet care experience working with a wide range of breeds, including high-energy and working line dogs. I currently own a German Shepherd, Belgian Malinois, and Husky. I’m an active hiker and runner, and love giving dogs both mental and physical enrichment. Whether your pup needs structured exercise, calm companionship, or just a fun adventure, I provide a safe, positive, and reliable environment.

Whether your dog needs walks, hikes, runs, training sessions, house sitting, or boarding I’m happy to help. Weekends are when I have the most time and energy to give your pet my full attention, care, and activity. During the week depending on times requested! Your dog’s safety and comfort always come first. I can care for your pup either in your home or at mine. I have three well-trained dogs who are friendly and social—your dog is welcome to play with them if that’s something you’re comfortable with. If you prefer a quieter or individual environment, I can also crate and rotate dogs to ensure your pup has safe, stress-free time and space. I live just five minutes from a local park, which is perfect for walks, exercise, and outdoor enrichment. Whether it’s playtime, relaxed company, or structured activity, I’ll make sure your dog feels secure, stimulated, and cared for like family.

About: I've been taking care of a wide variety of animals for a long time. I have experience in all around basic boarding care for dogs, cats, and various reptiles and small animals; dog training basic obedience, fear or frustration aggression/reactivity, high drive dogs, and anxiety behaviors. Pet Care is not only an important part of my life, but it's a passion of mine. Caring for your animal like I do my own is what makes life rewarding for me. When your pet is with me it becomes a part of my family and is treated as such. I look forward to training or caring for your animals! I can train your dog in a multitude of ways. I work a lot of animals with anxiety and behavioral issues. I can easily crate your dog, cat or any other animal if needed. I have access to multiple fenced in yards for your pet to run around in and play. I have a fully trained purebred smooth collie who is extremely gentle and can make friends with anything. I have multiple rooms and spaces in order to accommodate your fur baby's needs. I pay attention to detail and carry out all care with the highest level of standards I can.

About: I’ve had and worked with dogs for the last 10 years, both my own and at my workplace. I’ve managed a doggie daycare/ boarding kennel at the animal hospital I work at for the last 3 years. I’m educated and confident in my ability to administer medications, including insulin and oral medications. I am knowledgeable on dog behavior and body language, which I believe is extremely important for handling all animals. I absolutely love my senior pups and puppies alike, I believe certain dogs require different attention and I’m confident in my ability to provide that. I currently work full time, but am able to make early morning walks or check ins for my local area, same goes for lunch drop bys or short walks. My mid afternoons, evenings, and weekends are all entirely free for caring for your fur babies. It’s not always easy to find someone to trust with your precious fur babies, but my services come with a high level of respect, responsibility and confidence. While I am with your pet I can assure you that their needs and safety are my top priority. You will never have to worry about your pet getting enough love, attention, or exercise.
