“Maria was amazing! My dog was so happy and comfortable at her home. When our travel plans were delayed due to the weather, Maria was incredibly understanding and accommodating. I highly recommend her and would absolutely trust her with my dog again!”
“This was our first time leaving Teddy for an extended stay with anyone outside our home and from start to finish we felt reassured and confident that our dog was in the best hands! Anmol & Trupti loved our dog as if he was their own! Frequent texts and pictures were so appreciated and we cannot thank them enough for caring for Teddy!”
“This is the 2nd summer we left our dog with Brian and his family. My dog is older and had some health issues this past year. We were a little nervous but Brian took such good care of him before we knew he would be in excellent hands. We were right. Brian updated us whenever we asked and sometimes even before we asked. We always got pictures and Brian responded very quickly whenever we texted. I highly recommend Brian if you want your dog with someone who is dog savvy and understands how much you worry when you leave a pet behind. Personally, I think my dog was a little sad to leave this time🤣”
“Paul & Kathryn took great care of Tyson and sent me many pictures, he really enjoyed being with them and their children. I had no concerns leaving him in their care and will continue to reach out them as needed...”
“Bob took such amazing care of my dog. He made sure to keep his daily routine to make him as comfortable as possible! He also sent me updates to let me know how he was doing. I would 100% recommend Bob to anyone and feel comfortable having my dog stay with him again!”
“Our pup is happy while at Meaghan's and even does a few things that she doesn't do with anyone else (like get up the couch and cuddle). Meaghan is accommodating of our weird diet for Asha, and always sharing status updates. Can't ask for more!”
About: I have 25 years bird, cat, guinea pig & dog experience. It would be my pleasure to take care of your pets. I am an active animal rescue volunteer that is passionate about caring for animals. I currently have a 14-year old diabetic cockapoo (I'm comfortable administering insulin and other meds) and a 11-year old shih tzu puppy mill mother. My family and I have participated in the Pets with Wings program and brought homeless puppies back from St. Thomas. I also volunteer with Happy Homes and clean and socialize the cats at Petco Marlboro every Wednesday morning. I work a flexible job and set my own schedule I can be available when needed mornings, afternoons, evenings and weekends when your pet needs care. I will arrive at your home on time and follow your detailed instructions for caring for your pets. I can clean cages, litter boxes, walk pets, feed/water, administer medications and brush if needed.
“Thank you and your entire family once again for taking such great care of my gangsters; all the love, walks and attention they are getting while staying with you is absolutely impressive. A separate thank you for the regular updates and the peace of mind thay bring.”
About: My home was set up for an 80lb dog with a fenced in yard and areas around the house. Should be very comfortable for any dog. I’m very attentive to the pets, making sure their needs are met and that they are safe and sound. When I take on a job, my schedule is pretty cleared out for it since I’m a retired person. I can schedule my time around the care of your pet. I care for pets in my home by keeping an eye on them. Taking them out into the fenced yard and walking them twice a day. If they like to play fetch or tug I’ll do that with them too. I keep them fed, watered, exercised and rested.
“Neveen was ABSOLUTELY perfect! Rocket had a great time and was well taken care of... she sent photos and updated me and he didn’t want to leave. I would use her again, Again and again.. she’s a keeper?”
“Billy is hands down the Dog Whisperer — and that headline is no exaggeration! He’s the best of the best. My 5-month-old Maltipoo puppy, Einstein, was treated like royalty while my family and I were away on holiday. Billy kept us smiling the whole trip with constant pictures and videos of Einstein — whether it was him strutting around the park, enjoying his meals, or just being his playful self. It honestly felt like Einstein was on his own little vacation! Billy even went the extra mile by gently removing some knots from his fur and washing his things before giving him back to us. He was super polite with my whole family, always cheerful, and gave us updates whenever we asked (sometimes a couple of times a day). Einstein got plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles — it was obvious he was being cared for as if he were Billy’s own pup. On top of all that, Billy’s rates are very competitive, which makes the level of care he provides feel like an incredible find. We’ll 100% be booking him again as repeat clients. If you want someone who will love your pup like family, look no further — Billy really is the Dog Whisperer! 🐾✨”
“Our dog, Riley, was so well cared for by Josh. He met us at our car for drop off and pick up bc it's tricky to get to his apartment. While Riley was there we received pictures to keep us updated. It made our evening in Philly so much better knowing she was in good hands.”
About: We’ve had dogs our entire lives and currently share our home with an Australian Shepherd, so we’re very familiar with active dogs and consistent routines. We’ve also fostered dogs, giving us experience helping pets feel comfortable in new environments and working with different personalities. We treat every dog like our own and focus on making them feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into our routine since we both work from home and are around throughout the day. Pets receive regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of attention in a calm family environment. With two adults home, we’re able to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and care while keeping pets comfortable and on their normal routines. Because we have two young children, we only accept dogs that are friendly with kids and other dogs. Dogs stay with us as part of our daily family routine and receive regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of attention throughout the day since we both work from home. We also have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and exercise. Our goal is to provide a comfortable, supervised home environment where dogs feel relaxed and cared for.
“Was worried since this was a first time visiting this house with Milo and Maui but they looked so comfortable! I was so happy to see my cats and Lenny was so sweet and caring. Both my cats were able to have seperate rooms which was also so great.”
“Dana, Nicholas and their two sweet daughters were the perfect fit for my dog Lady to stay with while I was away. They are kind, responsible, and very caring. Lady loved their backyard too! Will definitely have her stay with them again :)”
About: I provide structured, attentive dog care in a calm home environment where dogs feel safe, understood, and well-managed. Because I work from home, your dog will have consistent supervision throughout the day. I focus on reinforcing calm behavior and clear boundaries so dogs can settle quickly — especially when they’re in a new space away from their guardians. I grew up with a cocker spaniel my family rescued from an abusive home, which taught me early on the importance of patience and understanding a dog’s emotional state. As an adult, I cared for an active young pit bull for two years, which deepened my experience working with different temperaments and energy levels. I’m now a proud dog mom to a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel named Lucky, who is well-socialized, gentle, and respectful of other dogs’ space. He helps create a calm, balanced environment for visiting dogs. Our day typically starts between 7–8am with outdoor time in the backyard, followed by breakfast and a relaxed start to the day. Because I work from home, dogs are never left alone for long periods and can settle into a steady, predictable routine. I live in a quiet, low-traffic area in a ranch-style home with very few stairs — ideal for dogs of all ages, including seniors. My home includes a fully fenced half-acre backyard for safe outdoor time and fresh air.

“Finnian was available last min and responded super quickly which is always great in a pinch but not expected. He was open to all my directions for my new puppy and comfortable dropping in without meeting her and not knowing what to expect. Took adorable pics and sent great notes! I do the job full time and so far I’m happy I found him :)”
About: I’ve spent years caring for cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and I genuinely love building trust with every pet I meet. Whether it’s an energetic walk, a calming drop-in visit, or simply making sure your pet feels safe while you’re away, I provide dependable, compassionate care tailored to each animal’s needs. My experience includes volunteering with Friends of Southern Ocean County Animal Shelter and Stafford Veterinary Hospital, where I worked alongside animal care professionals and gained hands-on experience with cats of different temperaments, medical needs, and backgrounds. Those experiences taught me how to read canine body language, stay calm in stressful situations, and always put an animal’s comfort and safety first. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision. I’ll treat your dog like family, keep you updated with photos and messages, and make sure they get the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve every visit. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and make your pet’s day a little brighter.
“Always a relief when Jess can watch our cats. Sadly one of our babies passed away since the last time she had seen them. Now that it’s just our one cat she took all the time in the world making sure he was comfortable with us being gone! We have vacations we are taking this year and will book her again and again! She gives the peace of mind we all need when leaving our pets.”
“Meaghan was able to accommodate our last minute request to cat sit and we were very happy with how communicative and professional she is! We will definitely use her again in the future!”
About: I have often been a cat sitter for a few of my close friends, ranging from day visits to overnight stays. I have cared for more than one cat at a time as well, with an experience of caring for 2 in one household over the duration of a week.
“Allison took very good care of my cat. He felt comfortable with her from the start and he’s normally afraid when someone comes in and he runs. She’s sent pictures everyday which made me feel good!”
About: I was born and raised with my childhood cat and took care of her until she passed when she was seventeen. I've cared for neighbor's elderly cats throughout the years as well as got a new cat named Stevie two years ago as a kitten.
About: I've been an animal lover my entire life and have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and spending time with pets of all kinds. While I'm newer to providing dedicated cat care services, I've cared for family and friends' cats over the years and previously lived in a home with three cats, which gave me experience with their unique personalities, routines, and needs. I understand that every cat is different - some love attention and playtime, while others prefer a calm, quiet presence and a little extra patience. I'm happy to follow your cat's routine closely, whether that means feeding, litter box care, playtime, medication reminders, or simply providing companionship while you're away. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your beloved pet. I'll treat your cat with kindness, patience, and respect, and I'll provide updates and photos so you can feel confident they're happy and well cared for.
“Jamie has taken wonderful care of my cats multiple times now! Lydia and Walter are very happy with her consistent care and it is nice to know they are well taken care of when I need to go away :)”
About: I've had cats since I was 6 years old-I have taken care of all situations with cats - including having to help senior cats eat (by hand). I have given cats insulin, water / hydration therapy and other medications and can sit for domestic shorthairs to the exotics.
“To say I was very happy with Gabriela's care for my cat is an understatement. She was very professional, prompt with communication and caring for my cat. Gabriela made sure that Kitty received her medication on time, kept me informed of Kitty's progress and answered all of my questions promptly. She is very observant and made suggestions that were very good and clearly knew what she was talking about when making those suggestions. I would highly recommend Gabriela and will use her in the future to take care of my cat.”
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for dogs and my wide range of experience. I’ve cared for everything from playful puppies to senior dogs with special needs, tiny breeds to dogs over 100 pounds. I’m confident handling all kinds of personalities and energy levels, and I always adjust my care to fit each dog’s needs. I’ve also had dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust. Pet sitting isn’t just a side job for me it’s something I truly enjoy, and I treat every dog like they’re part of my family. I currently work full-time Monday through Friday from 8am–4pm, but I’m still very committed to pet sitting! I’m available for early morning walks, evening visits, overnight stays, and weekends. I care for every pet like they’re part of my own family. Whether I’m in my home or the client’s, I make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. I follow their routine closely including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions and I always give them my full attention. I also keep the space clean and make sure they’re calm and happy while their owner is away.

About: For years I have taken care of dogs big and small. I’ve been called on my neighbors, friends, and family to watch their fur babies while they are away. In the past I have come over for the routine feed and bathroom and kept company, boarded at my home, or stayed at their home if the dog is more comfortable in that environment I am currently a student, so you can often find me home studying. Studying can get boring pretty quickly, so I would love the company and your fur baby would be spoiled with love and attention I live in a single family home with a large fenced in yard and live within a short walking distance to a scenic walking path

“I can’t express enough how wonderful Sara was with our little Peanut. I had come to grips with the fact that I probably won’t be able to go anywhere this summer because I didn’t want to take my dog somewhere where they would crate her or where she would be with a bunch of other dogs until I found Sara. She was absolutely wonderful and she treated her like one of the family. She only takes one dog or one household of pets at a time which makes me feel even more comfortable. My puppy absolutely adored her and her family and so did I! Thank you Sara for all your did. I know you will see Peanut every time we are away or even just out for the day like we did today.”

About: I’ve had pets my entire life, and two years ago I worked with a dog-sitting company—a truly rewarding experience. I love being surrounded by these four-legged friends, and I have a natural ability to communicate with them. I am currently off for the summer, but starting in September, I will be mostly available after 4:00 p.m. on weekdays and throughout the weekends. In my home, I focus on creating a safe, fun, and structured environment for every pet. We’ve recently added a secure fence to our extra-large backyard so visiting pups now have a spacious, supervised play area to run, explore, and burn off energy. In addition, I make sure dogs stay active and engaged with daily walks around the neighborhood, tailored to their age and energy level. In a client’s home, I maintain their pet’s routine as closely as possible—feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and walks—so they feel comfortable and cared for in their familiar space. My goal is always to provide consistency, safety, and lots of loving attention, whether I’m hosting your pet or caring for them in your home.

I am happy to feed the pet per the requests of the owner, as well as provide treats and playtime.

“This was our first time leaving Teddy for an extended stay with anyone outside our home and from start to finish we felt reassured and confident that our dog was in the best hands! Anmol & Trupti loved our dog as if he was their own! Frequent texts and pictures were so appreciated and we cannot thank them enough for caring for Teddy!”
“This is the 2nd summer we left our dog with Brian and his family. My dog is older and had some health issues this past year. We were a little nervous but Brian took such good care of him before we knew he would be in excellent hands. We were right. Brian updated us whenever we asked and sometimes even before we asked. We always got pictures and Brian responded very quickly whenever we texted. I highly recommend Brian if you want your dog with someone who is dog savvy and understands how much you worry when you leave a pet behind. Personally, I think my dog was a little sad to leave this time🤣”
“Paul & Kathryn took great care of Tyson and sent me many pictures, he really enjoyed being with them and their children. I had no concerns leaving him in their care and will continue to reach out them as needed...”
“Thank you and your entire family once again for taking such great care of my gangsters; all the love, walks and attention they are getting while staying with you is absolutely impressive. A separate thank you for the regular updates and the peace of mind thay bring.”
About: My home was set up for an 80lb dog with a fenced in yard and areas around the house. Should be very comfortable for any dog. I’m very attentive to the pets, making sure their needs are met and that they are safe and sound. When I take on a job, my schedule is pretty cleared out for it since I’m a retired person. I can schedule my time around the care of your pet. I care for pets in my home by keeping an eye on them. Taking them out into the fenced yard and walking them twice a day. If they like to play fetch or tug I’ll do that with them too. I keep them fed, watered, exercised and rested.
“Billy is hands down the Dog Whisperer — and that headline is no exaggeration! He’s the best of the best. My 5-month-old Maltipoo puppy, Einstein, was treated like royalty while my family and I were away on holiday. Billy kept us smiling the whole trip with constant pictures and videos of Einstein — whether it was him strutting around the park, enjoying his meals, or just being his playful self. It honestly felt like Einstein was on his own little vacation! Billy even went the extra mile by gently removing some knots from his fur and washing his things before giving him back to us. He was super polite with my whole family, always cheerful, and gave us updates whenever we asked (sometimes a couple of times a day). Einstein got plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles — it was obvious he was being cared for as if he were Billy’s own pup. On top of all that, Billy’s rates are very competitive, which makes the level of care he provides feel like an incredible find. We’ll 100% be booking him again as repeat clients. If you want someone who will love your pup like family, look no further — Billy really is the Dog Whisperer! 🐾✨”
“Our dog, Riley, was so well cared for by Josh. He met us at our car for drop off and pick up bc it's tricky to get to his apartment. While Riley was there we received pictures to keep us updated. It made our evening in Philly so much better knowing she was in good hands.”
About: We’ve had dogs our entire lives and currently share our home with an Australian Shepherd, so we’re very familiar with active dogs and consistent routines. We’ve also fostered dogs, giving us experience helping pets feel comfortable in new environments and working with different personalities. We treat every dog like our own and focus on making them feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into our routine since we both work from home and are around throughout the day. Pets receive regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of attention in a calm family environment. With two adults home, we’re able to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and care while keeping pets comfortable and on their normal routines. Because we have two young children, we only accept dogs that are friendly with kids and other dogs. Dogs stay with us as part of our daily family routine and receive regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of attention throughout the day since we both work from home. We also have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and exercise. Our goal is to provide a comfortable, supervised home environment where dogs feel relaxed and cared for.
“Was worried since this was a first time visiting this house with Milo and Maui but they looked so comfortable! I was so happy to see my cats and Lenny was so sweet and caring. Both my cats were able to have seperate rooms which was also so great.”
“Dana, Nicholas and their two sweet daughters were the perfect fit for my dog Lady to stay with while I was away. They are kind, responsible, and very caring. Lady loved their backyard too! Will definitely have her stay with them again :)”
About: I provide structured, attentive dog care in a calm home environment where dogs feel safe, understood, and well-managed. Because I work from home, your dog will have consistent supervision throughout the day. I focus on reinforcing calm behavior and clear boundaries so dogs can settle quickly — especially when they’re in a new space away from their guardians. I grew up with a cocker spaniel my family rescued from an abusive home, which taught me early on the importance of patience and understanding a dog’s emotional state. As an adult, I cared for an active young pit bull for two years, which deepened my experience working with different temperaments and energy levels. I’m now a proud dog mom to a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel named Lucky, who is well-socialized, gentle, and respectful of other dogs’ space. He helps create a calm, balanced environment for visiting dogs. Our day typically starts between 7–8am with outdoor time in the backyard, followed by breakfast and a relaxed start to the day. Because I work from home, dogs are never left alone for long periods and can settle into a steady, predictable routine. I live in a quiet, low-traffic area in a ranch-style home with very few stairs — ideal for dogs of all ages, including seniors. My home includes a fully fenced half-acre backyard for safe outdoor time and fresh air.
About: For years I have taken care of dogs big and small. I’ve been called on my neighbors, friends, and family to watch their fur babies while they are away. In the past I have come over for the routine feed and bathroom and kept company, boarded at my home, or stayed at their home if the dog is more comfortable in that environment I am currently a student, so you can often find me home studying. Studying can get boring pretty quickly, so I would love the company and your fur baby would be spoiled with love and attention I live in a single family home with a large fenced in yard and live within a short walking distance to a scenic walking path
“Harleny was an awesome dog sitter. She took care of Ruby as if she was her own fur baby. Ruby also loved her a lot. She also shared lots of pictures and videos, which made me feel so happy and felt she was in safe hands even if we were miles away from her. Will definitely reach out to her on our next vacation.”
“At first I was a little nervous to leave my guy Tedy but Monika calmed my fears. She took wonderful care of Tedy and he was happy. I will definitely use Monika’s services in the future!”
“My anxious pup with a complicated medication routine was well cared for. He settled in quickly and his routine was followed as requested. Jaimie kept in good communication throughout his stay. Will happily book again!”
“Elina took amazing care of our anxious and emotionally needy dog for 3 weeks. It was our first time using her, and I felt comfortable right away. Her back yard is incredible and was great place for our dog to spend time. During our trip, Elina was very communicative, sent pictures and answered questions promptly. We will not hesitate to use her again.”
“Elvis is the happiest when he staying with Yvette. It’s like home away from home he comes home happy he goes to then happy …..she is so caring and so loving and sends us updates throughout. We could not have asked for a better border family for Elvis. He loves his long walks with her.”
