Dog Walkers in Stockton, NJ

About: I would love to care for your fur baby! I was a veterinary assistant for 3 years and have also had more long term “dog nanny” jobs as well. I have dealt with any kind of dog you could think of. I recently had a blind, elderly chihuahua and adopted my pup at 10 weeks old so I’m used to old and young babies. I can administer medications and can cater to most special needs any pet has. I also have my own pet sitters insurance. Feel free to reach out to ask about any accommodations your pet might need or if you feel unsure about anything, I’m always happy to answer questions and go the extra mile to make sure your pets feel safe and loved. :) I recently decided to pet sit full time! Most of my jobs have revolved around animals so it made the most sense. I am home 24/7 unless I have a quick errand to run. If it’s a nice day or we all have jackets we usually walk to the park near my house and play fetch (I have 30 foot leashes) or just sniff around for a while. I always bring a treat pouch to keep their focus and reward good behavior! At night we usually eat our dinner, have our last potty and all cuddle up on the couch until bed time. Prices are negotiable depending on the specific hours I’m needed for overnights/house sitting (if I’m just popping in and out during the day and staying the night, or I’m needed 24/7). My #1 priority is making sure your pup is as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions for meal time or walks if it makes your dog feel safer and happier with me. I’m respectful of clients homes and leave things exactly the way I found them unless you need some light cleaning help. And of course I don’t mind if you have cameras in your home. Boarding includes up to 3 walks a day (with or without my pup), as much outdoor time as weather allows in a 16x16 play pen (completely supervised), all feedings, oral/topical medication administration, daily updates with pictures and unlimited cuddles and play time with my pup and I. There is a crate in my home if your dog is crate trained and prefers it, but it is never used unless an owner requests it. For walks I am happy to go the route your dog normally goes or do a short drive to a nearby park. As an extra precaution, for larger dogs, I bring an extra slip leash to use over your dogs collar to prevent them from getting loose if the collar unbuckles or slips off. I treat every dog that I take care of like my own.

About: I’ve had my own 3 dogs, 3 cats, and a bunny for the past 12 years and I have grown such a big love for animals. Started helping out my neighbors with day trips about 10 years ago and started doing longer strips once I could drive. Looking to help your fur babies get their steps in and have a fun time while their people can’t be around! Currently, taking care of pets is my full time job. I love it so much and it’s so rewarding. I’m very flexible with my hours! After talking to the owner about what they’re looking for from me, as permitted, I would love to go for walks wherever is safe, play with toys inside or outside, or even some long pets if that’s what they want

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was little. Feeding, playing, cuddling, doing all fun stuff! I have good experience with big dogs, since those were the kinds that I had growing up. I also love small dogs as well. I am good at calming dogs down, and relaxing them with slow pets. I can play gently or more roughly, depending on what the dog is used to! I am free all the time, since I just got out of school and this would be my full time job. I am always up early and go to bed late, so I have all the time in the world for the doggies! I make sure that my dog gets the right amount of food everyday, a good amount of snacks, sunshine, play time, exercise, hydration, sleep, and overall spends enough time with people. It’s good to socialize dogs as long as they are friendly. They need stimulation, especially if they are older! I also make sure my dog has her fuzzy pillow to sleep on, and make sure my fan is on, so she doesn’t overheat during the summer.

“Thank you! I’m glad you used your best judgement about the hot day. I’m glad she wasn’t able to sneak into the bedroom. She is very shy and takes some time to get to know people so it was nice you spent time with her. On the next visit, I’ll put down the awning that’s on the deck and you can sit outside with her if you want.”

We currently have two dogs and two cats in our home that are extremely friendly and love meeting and playing with new friends. For our feline friends, we have a finished basement where they can stay where they will have their own litter box, water fountain, and food bowls. For our canine companions, we have crates available if necessary, and although we do not have a fenced in yard, we have a walking trail right outside our house which is perfect for daily walks.

“Wendy is AMAZING!! She came right on time, she had a file ready for me to give more detailed information about my dog. She immediately started interacting with my doggie, and he loved every bit of it! Wendy took detailed notes as I showed her around his routine. She gave very good feedback during her time walking, she sent pictures and videos? I highly recommend Wendy, she has a big heart for animals. ? ?”

“Talia is an excellent communicator and very dependable. I felt comfortable leaving my doggo with her while I was away for extended days. Will definitely ask her to walk my guy again in the future.”

About: I have 5 dogs of my own! I have a Pitbull mix, Australian Shepherd, 2 elderly Terrier Mixes, and a Redbone Coonhound! I have previously cared for 3 elderly Poodles who needed special medical care which was administered during my visits. I periodically sit for neighbors and family's pets while they are away. I have grown up with multiple animals my whole life and am always excited to meet new friends big or small! I have a current job at a retirement home in which I work about 5 days a week. I only work shifts of 3-4 hours from 4-7:30pm give or take. Outside of those hours I am almost always free! We currently have a fenced in yard for our dogs but I always provide supervision when I let them out. I take my able dogs for longer walks when the weather is fit. I always make sure our dogs have fresh water and food to keep them well nourished and healthy. For my elderly dog, we provide her with medication each morning.

About: Hi my name is Geovana I am 27 years old, first thanks for reading! Since my childhood, I have taken care of my own pets, providing them with constant love and attention. I consider them an integral part of my family. In addition, I have had the opportunity to take care of dogs and cats of friends and now clients here at Rover, always making sure they feel safe and loved. I characterize myself as a very responsible and committed person, especially when it comes to animal welfare. I am an entrepreneur in handmade crafts with a flexible schedule, allowing me to take care of your pets at any time and location. Just check my availability, and I’ll be happy to help. I am unable to care for pets in my own home, but I am happy to look after them in yours. I can play with them, take them for walks, and feed them, ensuring they are well cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs, so pet care is almost second nature to me! I have experience with senior dogs, administering medication, and puppies. During each visit I make sure your pet feels loved through playtime and cuddles! I am attentive to food and water and make sure to send updates of your pet. While I do have a flexible schedule, I may be unavailable after 4pm on Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, but I’m often able to work around this. I care for pets in their own home, where they are most comfortable. I follow all owner instructions closely and am happy to brush, give treats, etc. I have experience walking dogs of all sizes and prioritize their safety by sticking to routines, following instructions, and using proper leash control.

About: I’ve had a dog of my own for 10 years now, and love pet sitting for friends and family! I would love to take care of your pet while at work or vacation! Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns! I’m a college student home for the summer so I’m have a very open and flexible schedule! I will be away periodically, but am always flexible and willing to help! I have a yellow lab at home who is very friendly and feel very comfortable taking care of dogs! While I likely wouldn’t have my dog socialize with new dogs, I’d be happy to take your pet to a local dog park to get some exercise and play, or take them to a local park for a long walk.

About: Growing up on a farm I was surrounded by all different types of animals at a young age and I am comfortable with almost any breed or type of animal! I’m home from college all summer so I have a lot of flexibility when it comes to my schedule. Whether you need early mornings or even late nights I’ve got you covered! I treat every pet I watch the same way I want people to treat my own pets; with respect and care! It’s important to me to make your pets comfortable and I will do everything I can to ensure this!

About: I have two cats that I love to death. I’m the one in my family that takes on the responsibilities of giving them proper playtime, cleaning, and lots of love! I also have experience taking care of wild animals! I interned at an wildlife rehabilitation center, where I fed and cared for a wide range of animals including songbirds, opossums, squirrels, owls, and even a beaver! I paid extra close attention to the different details and needs in order to help rehabilitate these animals back into the wild, and will no doubt pay just as much attention to the needs of your pets!😽😽 Not very busy at the moment, so I will be more than likely to assist you with pet care! I’m used to taking care of pets daily, so taking care of your pets won’t interrupt my daily/weekly routine! My goal is to ensure that your dogs feel entirely safe and comfortable within their own home. I will tend to your pets according to your instructions and play with them so they don’t miss you as much ;) I am also willing to feed them at night and stay for night visits if necessary.

About: I've been taking care of my best friend's and my neighbors' dogs since before I can remember, and have two very happy and healthy cats myself. I can take care of any animal, but cats and dogs are my favorites. I love to take dogs on walks and playing fetch (even on 100+ degree days) because every dog deserves the best treatment. Pet care is 24/7 for me with two cats, but since it's summertime, I'm able to be free any day of the week at any time to take care of pets, and can spend long amounts of time with pets without having to leave them. I will follow any and all rules and set by you, including feeding times, walk requests and more, as all I want is to ensure your pet is safe, happy, and taken care of properly. I am very enthusiastic about walks and even just playing with and petting dogs, and I just want to make sure pets are happy and healthy😸.

“Brooke was a date night dog sitter for us. She responded quickly to our last minute request and was easy to work with. I was nervous because my dog started barking when I left, but Brooke let me know that she calmed down. My dog seemed relaxed (not panting or anxious) when I picked her up. Brooke’s apartment seems clean and safe. Brooke and her husband were friendly and responsible. Would recommend!”

“My dog Monty loves Victoria! Really appreciated her reliability, strong communication, and helpful updates on how the walks went.”

About: Hello! I am an educator currently working remotely from home with my dog, Riggins, at my side. He is a calm and gentle 10 year old Pointer mix who does a mix of playing and sleeping. I'm new to the area and know the struggle of finding someone trustworthy and caring to watch your dog. The struggle is very real! Seeing this made me want to step in and offer the service to others. I'm available to watch most weeknights and the occasional Friday. For boarding, we will go on three walks a day and play and cuddle in the house between walks. I have an open staircase so keep a baby gate at the bottom to keep the pups downstairs where I spend all day (with the exception of sleeping).
