About: I've been taking care of my rescue dog Elliot for over 6 years now. Recently, I've started volunteering at the local humane society, helping socialize the animals and allowing them to become more comfortable around humans to prepare for adoption. I recently moved back to New Jersey to help out my parents with some medical issues, so I am currently available to look after your pets full-time! I always like to be as slow and gentle as possible to let the pets get comfortable approaching me first. My dog was very anxious when I first adopted home at the rescue, so I understand the importance of letting your pet feel comfortable and keeping them from being overwhelmed.

“Andrew was amazing with communication and taking care of our pets. Loved all the picture updates he sent. We will def be using him again! Thank you Andrew!”

About: I have taken care of cats and dogs for the majority of my life including the 3 family Labrador Retrievers I grew up with, extended family's cats and dogs, and neighbors' pets ranging from puppies and kittens to older pets. I am also the type of gal to point out every dog I see walks or road trips and a good time to me at a house party is playing with the dog! Let me know what kind of play and care your pet deserves and I would love to watch over your baby while you are away! I am currently looking for work in education or childcare and figured I could help out my community through pet care while I continue my search! I have the time and energy to care and play with your pet with the love and attention they deserve! I also have the added bonus of a flexible schedule that can meet your pet care needs! I can help support your pets' needs in a variety of ways including outdoor walking and exercise, indoor play (depending on space and personal preferences), feeding, brush and coat care, and will do my best to accommodate any additional pet needs!

About: Hi! I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable dog lover who understands that every pup has their own personality, routine, and needs.

Whether your dog needs a leisurely stroll, an energetic walk, or simply some extra companionship, I’ll treat them like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s usual routine and any special instructions you provide. I have foster dogs for the last two years.

I spend my free time volunteering at the shelter to help walking & socializing the dogs. My dogs are my children, and they are so spoiled beyond belief. I’m currently working part time so I’m pretty much home all day dedicating my time to my fur babies, making sure they get plenty of mental and physical exercise. I’m big on mental enrichment/stimulation and excersise. I will make sure your dog is taking good care of! I love to play ball/fetch with my dogs, I play a lot of puzzle games, I take them for a run or car ride to sniff & tire themselves out.

About: I’ve been around dogs most of my life! I have watched many dogs in the past 5 years 🐶 I can go on about how qualified I am, but I think it’s more important to say how much I love the furry creatures! If you hire me, your pups will be well taken care of💕 I’m currently working full-time but would love to help families out when I can! I can flexible with times and even certain dates with enough preparation. I have two mini poodle puppies (about a year old) that are very friendly and energetic! They like to play in the fenced-in yard but also love their nap time!

About: Proud Volunteer at Beacon Animal Rescue, and Mew to You. I have experience giving medicine to animals. My passion is to make all animals happy! Open to any animal! I am a student at Atlantic Cape Community College. As I practice my studies, being with and helping animals is something that keeps me going in school and happy. I walk the dog very securely on the leash, while of course picking up the poop on the walk. I do enjoy ball time, tug a war or anything the dog likes. For cats I am a cat owner and am very aware of how to approach and play with them, also very comfortable with litter boxes.

“Thank you Pamela! You went the extra mile for my very particular Yogi! I know you took extra time just to accommodate him and his aversion to rain 💕”

About: I’ve handled everything and anything your pooch may need either with my own little boy or other dogs. From bathing to sneaking medications in treats to regular or expected vet visits. I have just come back from active duty service. I am looking to start my 1st semester of college in the spring and as of now, my dog is my #1 priority. And if your pooch is under my care I’ll make sure he is too! I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room to play. Plenty of toys from my own pooch that yours is welcome to use as well. My boy is very active so he gets his walks every 3 hours and decent run every other day along with trips to the park. It would be lovely to find a pooch that could match his energy.

“Thank you so much for taking out Trudy! You got her to walk much further than I could haha thank you! I will pass along your rover profile to my parents for the neighbor.”

“Samantha has been an absolute lifesaver! She walks my dog Cooper once a day during the week while I’m at work, and I couldn’t ask for someone more reliable. She is always consistent and right on time, which gives me total peace of mind. What really stands out is how attentive she is—she always lets me know if anything seems off with Cooper and keeps me updated after each walk. She’s also very responsive whenever I reach out, which I really appreciate. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. I highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable dog walker!”

About: I have experience with working dogs, companion dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, and other animals. I have done training with dogs from basic obedience up to recreational agility, I am an active person who is more than happy to provide physical and mental energy to your dogs, and I am very educated on mental stimulation/enrichment to help your animals thrive. I do not get squeamish around insects/invertebrates, so I have no problem feeding your animals or taking care of your colonies. If your pet has care needs that aren't standard (or if you are very specific about the way your pet is cared for), leave me a note or step by step in texts. I am more than happy to help you and your pets with any of their care needs. While I do work, I have a flexible schedule that allots me time to work with you and your pets! I am always happy to discuss scheduling with you. In a clients home, I am more than happy to do whatever is necessary to care for the pet. Walks on a routine schedule set by the client, feeding at set times, with several opportunities for play/enrichment as set by the client. I have no issues cleaning litter boxes or handling animal waste. Ensuring that your pets don't have any stressful scheduling changes is one of my top priorities.

About: Over the years, I've had the pleasure of caring for a variety of dogs. Each experience has taught me valuable lessons in responsibility, patience, and the importance of providing proper nutrition, exercise, and affection. Whether it's scheduling regular vet visits, grooming sessions, or simply spending quality time playing and bonding with them, I've found joy in ensuring their well-being and happiness. Each dog has its own unique personality and needs, making every caregiving experience both rewarding and educational. I currently work as a virtual full time speech therapist in the school setting which allows me to work from home and gives me the ability to care for animals even while I’m working. I am available any day of the week or on weekends. Caring for pets in both my own home and clients' homes involves several responsibilities. Firstly, I ensure their environment is safe, clean, and suitable for the pet. This includes providing comfortable bedding, fresh water, and a balanced diet tailored to their nutritional requirements. Regular exercise and mental stimulation are crucial, so I schedule playtime and walks as needed. Most importantly, I strive to create a loving and supportive environment where pets feel secure and cared for, fostering a strong bond based on trust and companionship.
