Dog Sitting Sussex

About: Animals have always had my heart. I provide one on one care because I understand that being away from home can be stressful for some dogs. My goal is to make every boarding experience feel safe, loving, and as seamless as possible. With many years of experience caring for dogs, I tailor my care to each pet's individual needs and routine. I work from home and create my own schedule, giving me the flexibility to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and personalized care throughout the day. I live in a townhouse in a quiet, friendly gated community with plenty of safe sidewalks and green space for enjoyable walks. I love taking pups on walks and spending time outdoors whenever their owners approve. If your dog uses wee wee pads, I'm happy to accommodate that as well. And if they're used to sleeping in bed with you, they're welcome to cuddle up with me too! I only care for one family's dog(s) at a time, allowing me to give your pet my full attention in a calm, low-stress environment. Every dog is treated like family: with patience, kindness, and lots of love. I'd love to meet you and your pup! Let's schedule a meet and greet to make sure it's the perfect fit and ensure your dog's stay is comfortable, happy, and stress-free. 💗 I make my own schedule and work from home. I have the time to care for your pet one on one and give them the attention they deserve. I love taking the animals for walks and getting them out in nature if permitted. I have a nice yard for them to sunbathe and get fresh air. If you require wee wee pads, I can accommodate that as well. Your Dog is welcome to sleep In the bed with me, if parents allow that. I treat all of my dogs like they’re my own and like they are family. 💓 Let's schedule a meet and greet and get your boarding process seamlessly started!

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for shy, timid pets who need gentle reassurance. I’ve fostered 60+ rescue dogs and have years of experience helping anxious pups feel safe, calm, and cared for. My focus is overnight, in-home sitting so your pets can stay in their normal routine—sleeping in their own beds, in the place they feel most comfortable (no boarding stress). I am happy to send photos and updates of your pets while you're away so you can enjoy your travels knowing they are safe, happy, and receiving plenty of love. While you’re away, I also treat your home with respect and care: bringing in mail/packages, rotating lights, watering plants, and keeping things tidy. Expect reliable communication, photo updates, and calm, steady care—walks, playtime, enrichment, snuggles, and support for separation anxiety/routines. I work full time for a nonprofit with some remote work flexibly as needed. My schedule is an 8 hr work day and start and end times can be adjusted as needed. I am experienced with crate training, basic obedience, special diets, walking, mental stimulation and calming techniques and lots of love, affection and snuggles. Services can be modified for the specific needs of your dog(s) or cat(s).

“Isabella was wonderful! She stopped over a few days prior to meet and learn about what our pets needed while we were away which I appreciated. We will definitely book her again next time we are out of town!”

“Kim was a great sitter for my special needs cat. She gave him the care and attention he needed and made sure I was updated on whether he’d gone to the bathroom. I also appreciate her willingness to care for him over the holidays - it was a huge help since we could not be home with him!”

About: I have taken care of almost all breeds. I have fostered and dog sat labs, pitbulls, mixed terriers, doodles, Bernese mountain dog, you name it! I have provided senior care to some, and the puppy stage. I am currently in school, so pet care fits very well into my weekly routine! I work part-time as well, just two-three days a week. I am well equipped to keep your dog how you would have them. If you crate them, I will! If you leave them roaming, I will! However you normally take care of your pet, I will always make them comfortable and do the same.

“We’ve been lucky enough to have Mike regularly watch our pups over the past five years. He’s dependable & great with the dogs. Highly recommend his services!”

About: I have 6 years vet tech experience and another 15 years as a Labrador breeder. I have had large dogs all my life, from Shepard mixes and border collie to Labradors. I have owned performance dogs as well older dogs rescued from shelters. I have a raised ranch style home and can separate your dogs into the finished basement (which also has my home office and living room). If they are dog friendly they can live in the entire home with my two Labradors and family. My yard is impossible to fence but for smaller or older dogs I allow them on deck off lead (when I am home). When not working from home I am in Branchville and can stop at your home by 04:30PM. I am available many weekends. I am experienced in training basic obedience and have worked with multiple rescue dogs.

“Robert was a great dog care person! He gave our dogs special attention by interacting with them in play & extra pets and cuddles. Our dogs love Robert. Highly recommend.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember, both within my family and for others outside of it. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with a variety of personalities, sizes, and needs, which has made me comfortable and confident handling all kinds of dogs. In addition to dogs, I’ve regularly cared for cats, including those with medical conditions that required administering medication. I understand how important it is to be patient, attentive, and gentle,especially when pets need extra care and consistency. I also have a dog of my own, so I know firsthand the level of love, responsibility, and attention pets deserve every day. I treat every animal I care for like they’re part of my own family, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work from 9 AM to 2 PM four days a week, which leaves me available for morning and afternoon/evening visits, walks, and check-ins. I’m very active and walk about 5 miles every day, so I’m always happy to include dogs in my routine to make sure they get plenty of exercise and attention. Whether it’s a quick walk, a longer outing, or just spending time keeping your pet company, I can easily incorporate pet care into my schedule and stay consistent and reliable. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved whether they’re in my home or their own. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any specific care needs. In a client’s home, I try to keep pets on their normal routine to reduce stress. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise, along with regular walks and bathroom breaks. I also keep the home tidy and provide updates so owners feel at ease while they’re away. If I’m caring for pets in my home, I provide a clean, safe, and calm environment where they can relax and feel at home. I make sure they get lots of attention, daily walks, and supervision throughout their stay. I’m also comfortable caring for pets with special needs, including administering medication when required. My goal is always to make sure each pet is happy, healthy, and well cared for while giving owners peace of mind.

“This is the first time I have left my boys in the care of someone other than family and I couldn’t be happier. Ashley was not only quick to respond (which is important to me) , but also left me with such peace of mind. She sent me pictures and went the extra step to make sure I felt comfortable. I highly recommend her.”

I have experience with medication administration, grooming, and I have cared for puppies and senior dogs as well (including diabetic, blind and deaf) ¡Se habla español! I work remotely so I can take the dogs out whenever they need, and I can walk them whenever as well. I will follow any protocol or care your dog needs. I will follow any guidelines left for me on pet care, and I am willing to walk/run with your dog. Clean up after them, administer medication, and I have experience with bathing and nail trims as well.

About: I’ve been certified as a Vet Assistant, I am also currently in school for my license as a Vet Technician. I’m very confident that I will be a safe environment for your furry friends!

I’ve had more than 11 animals my whole life growing up (5 dogs) (4 cats) (2 two fish) I would say I’m extremely experienced in caring for animals. Professionally my experience would be under a year as I am still in school, I live on 67 acres and a large yard which will give your dog enough room to run with the wind and enjoy the fresh air.

About: Hi my name is Megan G. I have been taking care of family pets for years now. Looking to offer weekend services to our community! I work a full-time job Monday through Thursday. Friday ny job requires me part time hours so I am avaliable anytime after 3 pm to serve for your pet! Weekends avalible for dog walking and doggy day care if needed I can offer a partial- fenced in yard for daytime sittings, large outdoor kennel, large yard for exercise, cool downstairs area, & two furry friends to keep your furbaby company.

About: My partner and I have been dog sitting for over 7 years. We are incredibly enthusiastic, loving, and kind towards all animals. We love going on walks, and live in a very dog-friendly area. We hope you'll have your furry friend come stay with us! Kayla works full-time from home. Nothing is more fun for her than taking time to play with dogs throughout the day. It’s a stress reliever for her and fun for the both of us :) Vanessa is a former teacher and tutor, so her schedule is also fit for dog sitting! Attentiveness is the most important thing for us when with pets. In our home, we make sure that we can see the dog playing at all times. We put items away that are not dog-friendly and we recently purchased a house and set it up to have dog friendly rooms with space to play safely. On walks, the same applies. We are always attentive to the dog and how they feel, how they interact with other people and other dogs. Playing is fun, but we like to do it so that the dog and others are safe! I work full-time from home and my partner is only part-time and also from home. One of us is always home and available to be fully attentive to your dogs! I have a partially fenced backyard which allows for lots of room to play with supervision or on long leads. Our downstairs is set up to acclimate doggy zoomies and play time with couches, open space and easy bathroom access since it is a walkout basement.

About: I’ve taken care of animals ever since I was a teen. I would volunteer to care for pets all the time. I have taken care of all kinds of pets such as dogs, cats, bunnies, guinea pigs, salamander bearded dragon and chickens. Tell me what their needs are and I will make sure fur baby is well taken care of. It’s my responsibility to make sure that each fur baby is happy and safe. I know how important dogs are to our lives, so it's my duty to make sure that your fur baby gets to experience the same kind of love and care that they're used to at home. When taking on a new client, I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It's a great way to make sure that we're all a good fit for one another, which is so important to me. It gives us the opportunity to chat face-to-face about your fur baby and your care expectations. No one knows your dog better than you do, so it's always great to chat with owners to learn more about your fur baby. I am available to care for your fur baby all day as my main focus is caring for fur babies! I work from my home part-time so I’m always available to provide love and attention to your fur baby. I have a large fenced in yard with plenty of room to play and 1 dog to keep your fur baby company. If needed, I have the ability to crate your fur baby.
