Doggy Day Care in Toms River

“Corrine was an excellent sitter for my pup! It was my first time leaving him and she made me feel super comfortable and kept me updated with pictures while I was out. She has a great backyard for dogs to roam and play. Her kids are adorable animal lovers and my pup made some friends. Highly recommend Corrine if you need a sitter!”

“Kara was great with our dog. She was extremely flexible and responsive regarding drop off and pickup, and her own dogs were fun for our dog to play with. We will definitely use her again and would wholeheartedly recommend her to others.”

About: Hi, I’m Andy! I’ve spent over a decade working in dog care — both independently and for professional dog walking, sitting, and training services. I love all animals, but over time, I’ve found a real passion and strength in caring for large-breed dogs. I’m 6’7” and a former D1 athlete — which definitely comes in handy when caring for strong pups! I’ve worked with dogs up to 225 lbs (shoutout to Gus, the gentle giant Bull Mastiff). Handling big dogs isn’t a challenge for me; it’s second nature. I offer reliable, confident care for pets of all sizes — but if you’ve got a big pup others struggle with, you’re in the right place. I offer in-home dog day care and occasional boarding, depending on your pet’s needs. Dogs in my home are treated like family: allowed on furniture (unless you’d prefer otherwise), given full backyard access, and loved just like our own. I’m consistently available for day care 2–3 days/week (often more), especially during weekdays. My schedule is flexible and we can discuss recurring or one-time needs. Pets who stay with us are treated like family. They’re welcome on furniture (unless you request otherwise) and will have regular access to the backyard. Our 50-lb rescue dog, Sheeba, loves canine company. Our 14-lb cat, Bella, keeps her distance at first but is fearless once she’s comfortable. She has high-up perches for space when needed and rarely uses her claws — even when giving a gentle warning tap. Honestly, she’d rather nap on a dog than argue with one. 🤷🏼‍♂️

“Lovely individual. Very accommodating with my uncertain schedule. My dog always came back happy and exhausted and didnt wanna leave 😆 Definitely recommend.”

About: I have several years of pet-sitting experience and have cared for both cats and dogs—from energetic puppies to senior companions. My own cat is 17 years young! I treat every pet with patience, affection, and attention, just like family. I know how reassuring updates can be, so I always share regular photos and check-ins. You can count on me to care for your pet with love and reliability. Flexible work schedule, I can typically work around you! Weekdays and weekends available. Whether it’s a daily visit or an extended stay, I’m happy to adjust my routine to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or my client’s, I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow their routines closely—feeding, walking, playing, and administering any needed medication according to their instructions. I’m respectful of the home and try to leave everything as I found it. I stay in regular contact with updates and photos so you know your pet is in good hands.

About: I have always been a lover of animals. I grew up with cats, dogs, rabbits, guniea pigs, and hamsters. Every single animal I’ve had has been given the love they deserve. Giving them all their play time, I have a huge fenced in yard for dogs to run around in and play fetch. If pets need their own space, I can accommodate that. If you need me to take extra time out for them I can offer that as well! I’m here to help! I am a hairstylist by trade for 27 years and love what I do, I work part time to be home more with my children. Being a hairstylist, I love helping my clients look and feel good. That being said, I figured I can help people in other ways as well and being that I love animals, why not help people with their pets by taking care of them! I take my dog on daily walks, except for Tuesdays and Saturdays but those are the days I work in the salon, but my husband takes our dog out. She also will go to my mother's house in the summer to swim with us as she absolutely loves the pool! Being that I am home most of the week, watching dogs fits well into my schedule. I will treat other people's pets as if they were my own. As long as they are potty trained, I will allow them to walk freely in my home, I have a huge fenced in yard for them to run and play. As long as the weather is beautiful out, I will take them on walks as well with my family! Myself and my family will treat your pets as if they were ours! We will show them love the entire time they are with us!

“Arlene did a great job taking care of my dog.”

“Danielle kept our girl Trixie for the day while we hosted a bbq for 65 people. Trixie is an escape artist if someone leaves the door or gate open more than 2 seconds so we knew we needed to send her to camp for the day. Danielle sent us a video of Trixie having a blast with the other dogs. Danielle was even flexible enough to deliver Trixie back to our home (same town) as a last minute request. We will definitely use her again. Thanks for pooping my girl out, she slept like a log that night.”

About: I worked at Green Leaf Pet Resort. I also had a 13 year old shih tzu who crossed the bridge along with my 3 year old pit and her 2 puppies. I helped my pittie give birth and helped her raise them. She's no longer with us unfortunately. Rest in Doggie Heaven my babies! I work with dogs everyday all day. I currently have a pit/australia shepherd mix and a bully xL puppy. She is the most sweetest, goofy and sassy puppy. I'm surrounded by dogs all day. I use whatever the owners use weather its a crate, having inside, or having them outside. I do whatever the owners does. But I would prefer the dog to have a crate for safety reasons.

“Can’t say enough fantastic things about Thaddeus! Thank you so much. He was great, and my dogs did great( first time away))!”

“Christine took great care of our boy Junie! It was the first time we left him with anyone and he had a blast! From playing with Christine’s daughter to playing with another pup. Christine kept me informed throughout the day with messages and pictures. I highly recommend!! Thank you!”

About: I have been working with animals since I was a young kid. My love though is dogs… especially older dogs! I have been a rescuer, foster, and dog owner for as long as I can remember. I am a volunteer at the local animal shelter as a dog walker. I am here to make sure your pet is taken care of safely. I work from home, but can make my schedule work. Its very flexible. Monday-Friday anywhere between 830am and 3:30pm. Last minute appointments are okay too. I rescued my 5-year-old Pit Mix last year from a reputable rescue. He is living his best life going on daily walks, belly rubs, and tons of kisses.

“Lauren is amazing! So accommodating! Her kids are so sweet, my little Ellie LOVED them and had the best time! I messaged her just a few hours before I needed someone to watch my puppy and she messaged right away with no problems! Great yard for Ellie to play in! I was even running a little lat for pick up and Lauren said it was no problem so I didn’t have to rush there. I had one happy tired puppy when I picked her up! I HIGHLY recommend Lauren! :)?”

About: I have always had all breeds of animals in my life from chihuahuas, boxers, pitbulls, small terriors, shepards, dachsunds, and goldens. Some of the animals I had throughout my life had been rescues. I am a huge animal lover. I retired early and am very flexible! I have a lot of free time and flexibility to work around your schedule to take your pet on a walk or board them overnight. I have one senior chihuahua that is 16 and a 7 month old yorkie. My senior dog needs medication daily. I am familiar with dogs of all ages and promise to take great care of your pets!

“Alba took great care of my lily for daycare! She sent plenty of updates and photos/videos. She gave me a full report on Lily’s time with her. She was so warm and welcoming! I know lily had a great time and I felt completely at ease with her taking care of my baby. Alba was very communicative from the start to finish! I highly recommend alba and will definitely use her again in the future! Thank you Alba!!!!”
