“We had a wonderful initial meet and greet with Carol. Our dog doesn't take to everyone but immediately took to Carol. We dropped our dog off feeling very good about Carol. While we were away Carol sent pictures of our dog relaxing on the couch looking very happy and healthy. When we returned our dog was obviously happy to see us. Carol said the two of them had a nice time together. I would definitely recommend Carol and we will use her again in the future when needed.”

“Christina did a great job checking in on our two cats! Prior to our booking, she took the time to go over all their needs. She went above and beyond during each visit too, like leaving a few treats out for our shy cat to find after she left.”
“I can't say enough good things about Breanna's kind and loving pet sitting! I truly enjoyed her twice-daily updates and many cute photographs. I feel she bonded with my two kitties - when I arrived home from my recent trip, the kitties were happy and relaxed. I would not hesitate to recommend her and to use her services again. Thanks Breanna!”

We enjoy our time away so much more knowing Megan is caring for our cats because we don't have to worry about their well being while in her care. Cannot recommend Megan enough!”
About: I am 26 years old from New Jersey, I have a bachelors degree criminal justice, a masters degree in forensic studies. Over my lifetime I’ve had five dogs I’ve had. Two golden retrievers, a black Labbe, German Shepherd and now I have a rescue golden retriever mix. My love for dogs undeniable and I love spending time with them and being able to care for them and exercise and enjoy quality time outside is something that I take seriously. I’ve had dogs from puppy stage to senior stage and will always treat all animals the same and like they are my own. I currently work 8 AM to 4 PM. I usually leave my house around 6:30 in the morning and return home by five with potential of going to the gym.. I am able to take care of dogs before I go to work and after I go to work and on the weekends. I treat all dogs like they’re my own as far as taking care of them. I take my dog myself on several walks a day feed them two times a day as far as roaming the apartment and or my parents house they have the opportunity to do both.
“Sophia is so wonderful! We couldn't have asked for a better sitter to take care of our kitty and birds. She obviously cares about the animals, and she's great about pictures and communication. We'll definitely be asking her to petsit during future trips!”
“Jennifer took incredible care of my two-year-old cat, and I couldn’t be happier! This was my first time having someone outside of my family pet sit, so I was definitely nervous — but Jennifer instantly put me at ease. I left very specific instructions and shared my worries with her, and she went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable. She kept me updated after every visit with detailed reports and plenty of photos, which I truly appreciated. From her updates and the way my little guy looked in the pictures, I could tell he trusted her completely and felt safe and loved in her care. I’m so grateful I chose Jennifer and would book her again and again without hesitation. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and attentive, I highly recommend her!”
“Curt was easy to work with. I have a big dog that I trusted Curt with and a sometimes difficult reactive dog. It is hard to find someone who is patient with my difficult dog so it was nice to be able to get away for the night and know my dogs were safe!!!”
“Thank you again Karen! Kitties were well taken care of as always. Thank you for all the “extra” things you do as well. You always go above and beyond. I highly recommend Karen time and time again!!! A++++”
“Joyce is always great to work with. She meets the time requirement and I always trust her to take good care of my Misty, who is very shy and never comes out to meet people. But, she comes out for Joyce! I look forward to using Joyce for future vacations.”
“Pamela took care of my cat for a full 7 days, 30 minute drops ins. She sent me messages and pics daily, assuring me that Sal was not only ok, but happy!! Sal is a very shy cat, but seemed to be happy to see her every single day! Upon my return home, his litter was clean and filled, the garbages were emptied, water and dry food were filled, floor in front of the box was also cleaned! I was very happy with her service and would absolutely have her take care of my cat again!! I will certainly be recommending her to others in the future as well! Thanks Pamela!!”
“Barbara was wonderful. She visited Pangur (aka Mama) even before we left for our vacation. She always communicated with us to ease our mind while we were away. I would highly recommend and use Barbara again. And our Mama loved her too!”
About: I have taken care of a wide variety of pets (dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, rodents) my entire life, and currently have two pugs named Cookie and Waffles. I have also worked in a doggy daycare. I am comfortable providing all kinds of care including walking, grooming, watching, feeding, giving medication, and more. I currently am working per diem as a nurse aid, I just finished school and will hopefully be starting my first nursing job in a couple-few months. For now I have the summer open while I am studying and applying to jobs. That being said, my schedule is very flexible and I would be happy to include caring for your pet into it! I currently cannot care for additional pets in my home as I live with others. However, I am open to caring for pets in a clients home. I would like as informative and detailed a description of how clients would like their pets cared for, and plan to follow those instructions completely. I have experience with a variety of pets from dogs, cats, reptiles, rodents, and birds, ranging from young to old. I have the most experience with dogs. I worked at a dog daycare for a few months, so I am familiar with the personalities and care of different breeds. My dogs (Cookie and Waffles) have both had health issues in the past, so I have experience with giving oral medication. I also have basic grooming experience, mostly bathing, ear/face care, and nails (if pet allows, my girls unfortunately need a whole team to get their nails done).
About: Hello there! My name is Donia, but you can call me Nia! I have a passion for animal caretaking and rescue and am pursuing a career in dog grooming while fostering and rescuing in my free time. I am currently working part time at a grooming shop in addition to dog walking and other pet sitting. Believe me, as a dog mom having been held responsible for my pets from the young age of 10, I understand how hard it can be to keep up with the hastle. I have taken care of many different types of pets with different levels of neediness from puppies to elders to special needs dogs and even cats, rabbits, and hamsters. I am known as my neighborhood "dog whisperer". I love providing care for animals in need and would love to give a helping hand to anyone in need. I am also dog and cat first aid certified! Thank you for considering me to help you out and thank you for trusting me with your pets! I am currently working part time and am able to request any day off if given advance notice. I can also care for any animals after work by 3pm. I have a fenced in yard with four friendly dogs, a large home that is able to have separated space if needed. In a client's home I treat their house with respect and leave everything cleaner than when I found it. I treat every single pet as if they were my own!
“I am thrilled we connected with Alexis. She loves my boy and he adores her. ? Connecting with Alexis has relieved so much anxiety not only for me but for Bloo while I am away on business. She is so flexible and available when I spring last minute bookings her way. Thank You Thank You Thank You! So grateful ???”
About: Growing up in an animal loving home, I have had the responsibility of taking care of dogs, cats, fish, hermit crabs, birds, turtles, mice, Guinea pigs, and an iguana. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, brush, clean, bathe, and play with their animals. I treat them as if they were my own and as if they were human. I currently work Monday to Friday 8-4:30pm and I am home on weekends. I am able to walk, feed, play, and follow potty schedules as you do in your home after work, on the weekends, or in my home for boarding. I do have owners who are ok with their dogs being in my home while I am at work but it is all about whatever you feel comfortable with! I have a fenced in yard with three house trained, dog friendly doggos. They get a walk everyday and let out as much as they need. My husband and I love to go in the backyard with them and run around or take them on adventures in the car. My dogs do sleep in our room, either in their beds or on our bed, whatever they prefer and that is the same option I will always give your dog. I can crate if needed/requested. Wally and Reed are fed three small meals a day, once in the morning, afternoon, and evening, but I know not everyone’s food schedule is this way. All feedings are separated from your dogs. My older dog has allergies and is given allergy medication daily as well as ear drops which makes me capable of following a medication routine. We also have a Furbo indoor camera that has all eyes on the dogs at all times and baby gates to separate large areas of our home just incase anything were to ever happen. There are times where I will be sitting other dogs as well as yours. All dogs are slowly introduced on leash in the backyard in a safe environment. I allow the dogs to take the time they need to settle in and get a feel and sense of smell of their surroundings. If an owner feels as though the stay will not work out, I am completely understanding. I would never want an owner or dog to ever feel uncomfortable in my home. If you are unsure of your dogs feelings toward other dogs, especially males, I always recommend a meet and greet in advance. I have never cared for a special needs animal, but I have taken care of very sick animals and making sure they are comfortable and accommodated for. If you have a special needs dog and are considering me, I would make all the accommodations necessary to make your pet feel right at home and comfortable.

“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!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover and caretaker my whole life and have experience caring for dogs, cats, ferrets, reptiles, guinea pigs, hamsters, and parakeets of all ages. During the school year, I work as a full time special education teacher. This gives me mornings for walks and cuddles and plenty of time for love, attention, and playtime afternoon til bed. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly dog who loves to play with other dogs. I also have 2 dog friendly cats. If your pet is crate trained, I can easily accommodate that.

About: Greetings Pet Parents: I recently retired and am able to fulfill a lifelong dream of having a small doggy day care in my house 24/7 I have the time since I am fully retired now to dedicate to taking care of small pets for as long as you may need in my home. I have a fenced patio out back with a long strip of astro turf where your pet can enjoy sunshine, fresh air and potty breaks on demand in a safe secure enclosed space
“Meredith did a great job with my dog, Otis. He came back happy, tired, and well taken care of. She communicated clearly, was easy to work with, and flexible with my work schedule. I’ll definitely book with her again if she’s available. Highly recommend.”
About: Huge dog lover! I’ve had multiple dogs my entire life and ran a successful dog sitting service with my wife for 5 years. I no longer have any pets of my own and would love to fill the house with yours. Your dogs will be at home here with full run of the house. I live in a quiet community with a beautiful yard on a duck pond. We'll take long walks, sit outside, play with toys and enjoy cuddle time on the couch or bed. I'd be happy to take them to the local dog park to get their energy out. I’ll send plenty of videos and pictures so you can see your baby while you’re apart. I'm now retired and will be home most of the time, outside of pickleball at my community club house and short errands. Would love to meet your puppy or chat details about their stay. I am mostly home, aside from short errands and can walk your dog based on desired schedule. The dog is allowed on the furniture and can sleep in bed or we can bring their bed or crate into the bedroom. I will take them on walks around the neighborhood and play with toys. I can also provide visits to the local dog park upon request.
About: What sets me apart is my experience caring for pets at every stage of life. I’ve taken care of puppies who need patience, structure, and reinforcement of basic training, energetic adult dogs who thrive on activity and routine, and senior dogs who require a gentler pace, medication awareness, and extra attentiveness. I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s specific needs, whether that means reinforcing potty training, maintaining feeding schedules, administering basic medications, or simply providing calm companionship. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I work fully remote from home and have flexibility in setting my schedule. This allows me to plan my day around walks, feedings, playtime, and any specific care needs your pet may have. I’m home throughout the day, so your pup won’t be left alone for long stretches and can receive consistent attention, bathroom breaks, and companionship. Because I structure my work independently, I can easily adjust my schedule to maintain your pet’s normal routine, whether that means early morning walks, midday play sessions, or evening wind-down time. It’s important to me that pets feel comfortable, engaged, and cared for, not just supervised.

Some weekdays I work a short shift. During that time, dogs are safely settled, and I only accept bookings that fit my schedule so they continue to receive the care, exercise, and attention they deserve. Boarding Schedule: Friday arrivals are welcome before 5:00 PM. Drop-offs and pick-ups resume Sunday morning. Safety is my top priority so I treat every pet like my own and keep the space clean and secure.

About: pets are family. I have experience caring for large dogs and know the importance of patience, consistency, and making sure every dog feels safe and comfortable. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just some extra attention and companionship, I’ll tailor my care to their individual needs. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and attentive. I’ll treat your dog as if they were my own, providing updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is simple: make sure your pet is happy, exercised, and well cared for every time we’re together. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I have two dogs of my own, so I’m used to regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and making sure pets get the attention and exercise they need. Caring for animals isn’t something I squeeze into my day—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and already do every day. My schedule allows me to be dependable and consistent, and I understand how important it is for dogs to maintain their normal routine. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, or extended care, I’ll make sure your pet receives the same level of attention and care that I give my own dogs. When caring for pets, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping them on their normal routine as much as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any special needs. I also make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship, while keeping owners updated with messages and photos. Because every pet has a different personality and comfort level, I take the time to get to know them and adjust my approach accordingly. Whether your dog is energetic and loves long walks or prefers a slower pace and extra affection, I’ll make sure they receive the care that’s best for them. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own.
About: For as long as I can remember, dogs have been one of the greatest joys in my life. I have been an avid dog lover my entire life and have been fortunate to raise and adopt several wonderful dogs throughout my journey. Every dog I’ve had has taught me something special, and I truly believe our pets are cherished members of the family. My life has taken me from the beautiful Pacific Northwest to spending 20 years in the California desert, and now I’m excited to call the Toms River, New Jersey area home. One of my favorite things about living here is enjoying the incredible wildlife and beautiful scenery on long walks. I currently share my home with two senior rescue dogs who absolutely love their daily walks. Caring for senior dogs has given me experience with patience, gentle handling, and understanding that every dog has unique needs, routines, and personalities. Whether your pet needs a dependable sitter while you’re away, plenty of cuddles and companionship, or an enjoyable walk filled with fresh air and new sights, I’ll care for them with the same love, attention, and respect that I give my own dogs. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy—and to give you complete peace of mind while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member and look forward to making lots of new four-legged friends here in the Toms River community! I work remotely and can tailor my schedule around other commitments easily. It is not a problem for me to leave my work for a few hours to tend to a pets needs. I am highly responsible and will watch over your fur baby as I watch over my own. I have never had a lost pet or had a pet escape my presence. I have completed dog training courses and know how to responsibly handle a pet.
About: I have 20 years of dog experience, from large breeds to small breeds. I also have experience volunteering at a local animal shelter where feeding, cleaning, walking and playing with the dogs of all sizes was essential. I can be available seven days a week if need be. I am very flexible with my availability. I have no other commitments to keep me from not doing my job. I currently have cats so I change their little boxes daily. I feed them twice a day so they are on a strict feeding routine. When I did have dogs I used to walk them, in addition to having a fenced in yard where they could run and play.
About: Greetings Pet Parents: I recently retired and am able to fulfill a lifelong dream of having a small doggy day care in my house 24/7 I have the time since I am fully retired now to dedicate to taking care of small pets for as long as you may need in my home.

About: I have adopted dogs for over 40 years and all of my friends and relatives have also. My children have dogs and cats which I often take care of when they need me. I had to medicate my sweet Rosie before she passed last year which was heartbreaking (she had kidney disease) but I would anything to give her a longer, healthier life and I will for your dog too. My husband is a wonderful helper and supporter who loves dogs as much as me and will be there to love your dog too!! I am retired so I am always available. I do teach yoga a few days a week but I’m sure that it won’t interfere with my dog services. I have an area out back to let your dog out but always feel the need to walk your dog. A meet and greet will show you how I keep my home so you can trust a clean and safe environment.

They took great care of him and he came hoe with out skipping a beat. Thank you Sara, and Jose for being GREAT host for Rover.com. I would recommend Sara to my family and friends. David”
“Crystal and her family were great and our little guy had plenty of love and attention from all of them. He came home happy and healthy and very well cared for. I highly recommend Crystal and will be using her again very soon!”
“Nicole and her family were amazing with my Husky. I was worried since it was the first time leaving him with someone he didn’t already know. Her yard is a doggie oasis, they were so loving and attentive and made me feel at ease leaving him while we were on vacation. I will definitely be using her again, 5 star doggie treatment!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Christine and her family were great. They accepted our request with very little advance notice which allowed me to attend a funeral service and not have to worry about Rocky. As a border collie mix, Rocky has enormous energy, but when I picked him up from Christine, he plopped down in the backseat and slept all the way home. I also loved the photo Christine sent me of Rocky playing with her other dogs. It looked like he was having a great time. I whole heartedly recommend Christine if you need a sitter in her area.”
“Jessica was wonderful with my 13 year old little yorkie mix. Sophie can be a handful (very picky eater and nervous) and Jessica was very patient and loving with her. Sophie was perfectly comfortable in her home and well taken care of. I will definitely be booking with her again!!”
“Our dog Murphy had a great time with Kim and her dog Riley! We felt completely comfortable leaving him in Kim's care. He had plenty of space to run and play! It's a good feeling to know he was loved and cared for. We will definitely use Kim in the future!”
