“Nacho is a very selective Chihuahua who immediately adored Nicole. He exhibited none of the signs of anxiety he generally does when he meets someone new (or even someone he has met several times). He accepted Nicole as one of his special people and behaved as well (if not better!) for her than he does at home. Nicole sent us photos of Nacho napping, taking walks and looking completely adorable while he was in her care; we could see how content he was and were able to have peace of mind while we were traveling. Nacho will definitely be staying with Nicole the next time we need a dog sitter.”
“Kirk and Anita are true animal lovers and treated our dog as one of their own. They make sure to learn your dog as to how it will be while with them. They let the dogs walk around their house and yard as if they lived there too. The have a great yard, very spacious (almost an acre?) They also can keep your dog separate if needed in another spacious area. It was nice to receive photos of our dog while she stayed with them. We would, and will be using them again in the future. We felt great after picking up Luna, our dog.”
“Mariah is a fantastic dog sitter!! This was our second time in 2 years with leaving our pup Bodhi with Mariah for a week while we were on vacation, and Bodhi had a vacation of his own!! He absolutely loves staying with her and making new friends. She takes such great care of him, and keeps us updated daily with pictures, videos and updates. We will most certainly be using her services again, and we recommend them to anyone. Thank you again Mariah!!”
“As always, my baby was safe and secure. I’m afraid to say she’s the best because she may never have openings! She really takes your dog and make them hers for the time they are there. My baby ‘Bear’ was a shelter dog so I was extremely worried. Not a problem! She took care of our old man (old Rottie) and after that, I have no hesitations leaving my dog with her. Thanks for caring for my baby like he was your baby!”
“Sookie always enjoys her time with Rebecca and Oz, and she gets great socialization time (which she doesn't get because she's an only child). Her tail gets wagging every time she sees them!”
“Jenny was great and I know my pups were taken care of. She sent me cute pics of her pups playing with mine and updated me on how they were doing. I will definitely contact her again. She is a sweetheart and you can tell she loves dogs!🐶💖”
“Wonderful experience. Victoria put us and our 2 dogs at ease. Our dogs were treated well and received lots of attention. She shared some photos and messages with us. Would definitely use again and recommend.”
“Denise has some secret magical touch with dogs! Our typically anxious and fearful Zoe took to her immediately and barely looked at us when we said goodbye! She was calm and happy and eager to play with Denise. We received daily pictures and updates and it was apparent that Zoe was having a fantastic time. When we picked Zoe up, she was calm and happy and transitioned back with us seamlessly. I would highly recommend Denise and will absolutely bring Zoe back to her again!!”
“Kathleen was great with Atreus for our first booking. She sent lots of pictures and was coummicative during his stay. I look forward to booking with her in the future and would highly recommend her.”
“Pam and Jay did such an awesome job with our 17 yr. old dog. They were loving and patience with her. I will use them again if needed and would highly recommend them.”
“Eileen took great care of my boys while I was away. She kept in contact via texts, pictures and videos throughout the week. This was important since I was able to keep my mind on a nice relaxing vacation. When I picked up the boys, she had groomed them. They looked handsome and appeared to have a good time. I would definitely book with Eileen again. She really cares for my puppies :)”

“McKenna and Tyler were so awesome with our dog Rhys. Will definitely be using them again. Sent us awesome pictures and kept us up to date with everything. Made drop off and pick up super easy. Look forward to using them again!!!!”
“I am pleased that Myles was well cared for by Jim. Myles received the same pampered attention with Jima as he receives at home. It was also comforting to receive periodic photos to see how well Myles adjusted to his new environment. I would use Jim again in the future.”
“Adrianna was great. She kept in touch with a handful of photos over the two weeks she was sitting for me and she feel in love with my Chloe. If we need a sitter in the future I wouldn't hesitate to use her again.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience for Penny’s stay! From start to finish, she was communicative and kept us updated with regular messages and adorable pictures, so we always knew Penny was in good hands. Penny came back happy, relaxed, and clearly entertained—she even seemed to have had her own little vacation! We’re so grateful for the care and attention Penny received and highly recommend Janet’s services to any pet parent. We will definitely be booking again!”

“Diana takes really good care of our pets. We have had her help us out more than once and she doesn’t disappoint. She send lots of pictures, goes the extra mile with cleaning up after their messes and makes sure they are safe and happy.”
About: I've owned my beloved food-finicky senior cat for 4 years. I am proud that she has blossomed under my care! Listening to body language and giving space or cuddles when needed was key. Whether your feline wants a friend for life or a servant they can ignore I am on the job!
“Working with Felicia was amazing! She took great care of our cats and gave us very detailed reports on their care. This made us feel extremely comfortable while we were away, knowing they were in great hands. Felicia is great at responding and goes above and beyond as a sitter. Would definitely recommend her for your pet needs and would love to work with her again. Thanks again!”
“Jillian was AMAZING! She made sure to provide pictures and videos through each day. She is very responsive and open. You can tell she truly loves her job and enjoys creating real relationships with your pets. Any time I have to go away I will absolutely be contacting Jillian again. Thank you !”
About: I’m a dedicated dog lover with professional experience working at a dog kennel where I care for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I have hands-on experience with blind and deaf dogs, as well as diabetic dogs who need insulin shots. I’m confident giving any kind of medication that your dog may need, and I always make sure they feel safe and loved. I’ve been working with dogs, professionally for just under a year, but I’ve been dog sitting for over four years. I treat every dog like my own, and there will be no shortage of love, patience, and comfort in my care! Pet care is a huge part in my daily life! I work with dogs multiple days a week and outside of work I regularly help friends and family with their dogs. Dog care fits naturally into my daily life and it’s not only just a part of my routine, but something I genuinely enjoy and make a priority! When caring for pets in a clients home, I treat their space with the same respect and care I would my own! I always follow the owners instructions closely, from feeding routines to walk schedules and any special needs. Communication is key, so i send regular updates and photos to give owners peace of mind while you’re away. Your pets safety and happiness are my top priority!
“Ashiera was amazing! She sent pictures and updates everyday. Honey Mochi is very shy but Ashiera was patient with her and got her to warm up eventually. I will definitely be working with Ashiera again!”
About: I’ve had years of experience growing up with and caring for my family dogs. I miss having a dog (but not so ready to adopt one of my own) so hoping to help out those in the neighborhood who need an extra hand with their furry friend for the day, night or weekend. I have tons of love and experience to give!! I work from home freelancing part-time so have a lot of time and energy to dedicate to your pup! Walks, boarding, companionship, anything they need! I don’t have any pets in my home, so no worries about your fella getting along with anyone else. I have a great fenced in yard out back of my townhouse.

“Our puppy Saint had a wonderful stay with Mariah. She was so responsive and flexible with the situation we were in. I immediately knew Saint was in good hands. We received pictures of him during his time there and updates. We will 100% be reaching out to her again when we are in the area.”

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs my whole life. My babies are lifers. Your animal is my number one priority. I prefer animals over humans any day I quit my job to walk dogs full time. I’m always available if you need me. Your babies are my babies. I’d prefer dogs over humans I have a fenced in yard and no one can escape. I abide by what the client asks for in their and my own home. I walk, play with your dog if toys are presented
“Kirk was incredible to work with. I had asked him many questions and he got back to me quickly with answers. I have been struggling finding the perfect place to take my fur babies when I work long hours or am away for a night occasionally. He was flexible with the hours I needed for drop off and pick up. As soon as my dogs got there they were venturing around the enclosed fence area and seemed very happy. My maltipoo has separation anxiety and you wouldn’t have known it when I dropped her off to Kirk. My boxer is a puppy and Kirk was willing to take on having a high energy puppy for a long duration of time. I can’t say enough good things about Kirk for this being only my first time taking my dogs to him and his wife. I will be booking again immediately and have every intention of using Kirk and Anita for any needs I have in the future regarding doggy day care and/or overnight stays.”
“Alex took great care of my puppy! He was there all day while I was at work, I got to enjoy pictures and videos she took of him throughout the day. He went on multiple walks which he loves! She was very accommodating to my schedule and quick to reply to any messages! I couldn’t recommend her more! My puppy can’t wait to go spend another day with Alex”
“Sandy had an amazing stay. She loved the roaming around and was so comfortable,. First time I left her anywhere that she didn’t want to leave. A real family home.”
“Top tier service! This was my first time using this service and I am so elated I ran into Sterlin. She provided constant communication about the activities she was doing with Bear which made me extremely comfortable and relieved. I also think Bear fell in love as well. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet as if they are there own there’s no need to look any further…YOU FOUND HER!”
About: What sets me apart as a dog sitter is that I truly understand dogs because I’m a dog parent myself. I currently have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and a Mini Dachshund, so I’m experienced with different personalities, energy levels, and care needs. I know how important it is to find someone who will treat your pets like family, and that’s exactly how I care for every dog in my home.

“Allison took amazing care of Duffy during his doggy daycare! She made sure to send lots of pictures and updates so I knew he was in good hands. I will definitely book with her again!”
“We have two boxers. Had no experience with using a dog sitter before this. We had plans to stay in the wildwood area and found out the dogs were not permitted on the boardwalk were we needed to be. I read through the reviews, found Mike and can’t say enough about what a perfect experience it was. We only needed him during the day so he promptly communicated with us and adhered to our schedule. He sent us pics to let us know how they both were adjusting. Mike is not just some guy you are leaving your dogs with, he truly seemed to care for our dogs and their needs. Thank you Mike for taken great care of us! Hope to see you again real soon. Lots of licks, ( and maybe a little slobber) Zeus and Apollo!”
“Victoria is a terrific host, very good communicator, got several photos and videos throughout my dogs stay. I was very comfortable leaving my pup with her. Thank you again for your hospitality and hosting Bree.”
“It was so nice to be able to drive my husband to the eye specialist and be able to go in with him. I know that Jeffrey had a wonderful day hanging out with Denise and didn't miss us for a minute!”
“Kateri was wonderful with our 5 month old lab puppy! You can tell she really cares about dogs and is very experienced, kind, and professional. We would definitely have her take care of Wally again!!”

About: Proud Volunteer at Beacon Animal Rescue, and Mew to You. I have experience giving medicine to animals. My passion is to make all animals happy! Open to any animal! I am a student at Atlantic Cape Community College. As I practice my studies, being with and helping animals is something that keeps me going in school and happy. I walk the dog very securely on the leash, while of course picking up the poop on the walk. I do enjoy ball time, tug a war or anything the dog likes. For cats I am a cat owner and am very aware of how to approach and play with them, also very comfortable with litter boxes.
“Jillian was fantastic! She accepted the job and followed instructions so well! It was a last minute job because I had to work longer than expected! She sent photos and my boy was so happy! 100% 5 plus stars!”
About: I have been a pet appreciation magnet as long as I can remember. Even when I am not aiming for the attention, the pets gravitate my way, and i have scritches and belly rubs for them all. I have a rescue of my own for 6+ years now, bichon/poodle mix. Though he had a traumatic start before me, he has adjusted well and is a cuddle bug, and getting better with his socialization with new doggos. I have been a dog sitter for friends over the last 8+ years, when they go on trips. I have experience in minor training, like sit/stay/leash leading, for a few breeds up to 50-70 lbs (no certificates, just repitition and patience). Positive recognition of good behavior and moderate activity (to remedy the bad behavior) when you need me are what I hope to share with your furry family members. I am currently working part-time, so i can set up a schedule of regular pet attention care during part day time hours. Currently I have weekends free if weekend care is requested, though this may change if requests are light. I am working on my house to be able to provide overnight care in the future, making it care friendly for additional furry friends. I have a fenced in, good size yard, and a medium size fur baby of my own to greet stay over friends, though my house needs a little more time for prep before we are ready. I am happy to do drop-ins and day or eve walks at your home, and follow any/all your rules. I respect your needs and want to make sure your fur baby is safe and happy in my care. I keep trainer treats in my car, if we need to practice a few basic commands, as well as water and other care essentials. I have a back seat hammock/cover for the pet's safety when traveling (as needed). I also have a med to large dog kennel I can put in the way back of my SUV if that is preferred for safety and security.
About: Hello my name is Angela and I'm a huge animal enthusiast. I live not to far from most shore towns where people visit including Ocean City, Sea Isle, Avalon, and Stone Harbor. I own a home on a medium sized lot,so your dog has somewhere to safely play. The backyard is fenced off while the front is not. I also live in a relatively small neighborhood (2x3) blocks that's perfect for going on walks with the pups! I will take really good care of your family member as I would my own. I also don't mind sending frequent check ins and I'm guilty of taking to many pictures because they are just so dang cute! Please feel free to contact me anytime, looking forward to hearing from you! I own my own pet transportation company called Angie's Puppy Shuttle. My husband and I have owned dogs out entire life and since we don't have children, our dogs are a willing substitute, we will both be caring for your loved one while they stay with us. They will be welcome to the middle of the bed every night 🤣 Sometimes I am away, traveling cross country to introduce a family to their new puppy. The rest of that time I enjoy doing crafts, playing with the dogs outside and inside, playing pool and making a new snuggle buddy. I have dealt with the escape artist routine and don't want to pose that risk to your pet. We have a backyard with a fence and will remain on a leash no matter what. I just don't feel comfortable trusting them without it. I have a "TWO DOOR POLICY", which just means that if any exterior doors are opened, your pet will either be leashed to go outside before or will be placed in a bedroom behind another door before the exterior door can be opened. Absolutely no chance for an escape artist!

Staying overnight would not be an issue if requested I Enjoy doing fun activities with animals, my favorite way to interact with dogs is the backyard and h throwing frisbees, I am good at checking dog bowls, for food and water

About: Hi! My name is Danielle. I am 35 years old and I am a very outgoing and active girl. I work full time at a cardiologist office but have a lot of free time after work and on the weekends.

You can go away knowing your pets and your home are in good hands! I will love your dogs as if they were my own and will give endless tummy rubs. I know it’s important for your pet to feel loved and cared for while you are on a vacation, or just an overnight trip so that’s why I started doing rover. I love sending pictures/videos and sending you updates just so you know they are having a great time and are comfortable while you are away. I can start as soon as possible and have no problem traveling. I hope to hear from you soon! Yours Truly, Danielle
