About: I love cats! When I was little we had originally 4 outdoor/indoor females that turned into 13 cats. The past 4 years I fostered before I moved to fill my heart, but also have a cat of my own. I’ve cat sat for 2 different families for long periods of time, and I’ve always been asked back. I truly do love cats!
About: Hello, I am 33 years old and have had dogs and cats my whole life. I used to work at an Emergency OverNight Hospital for small animals (dogs and cats) I specialize in walking reactive aggressive dogs (I have a GSD that does not like other dogs) as well as escape artist dogs. I've had numerous different breeds, from hound dogs to huskies, so I am used to all temperaments. I love animals and have a lot of patience when it comes to animals. I don't mind walking in the rain and I always carry an extra harness, leash, and freeze dried lamb treats! I believe dogs are more then just family and deserve to be treated like it. I believe pets do better when watched inside of their own home, rather then going to a strangers or being boarded, I work from home so I will never leave your pet alone for more then an hour at a time, ensuring less crate time and a better balance for your pet. I work from home so I am always available for any emergency, no chewed up toys or foreign bodies on my watch! I never leave pets for more then an hour ( if i need to run to the grocery store) so whatever they need, I am there for. I prefer to stick the the routine that the owners have already set. I also prefer to do a meet and greet before any over night pet sitting to ensure I am the best fit for your pet and your pets needs. I believe that pets are family and should be treated as such.
“Miranda took care of our cat Tiny Tom during a short trip to Boston. Miranda left very detailed notes and lots of pictures of our boy. She was very responsive and we knew we left him in great hands! We will definitely reach out to Miranda in the future. Thank you!!!”
“Greg was really great with our three cats! He took care to make sure everyone was ok during his daily drop ins, and was very thorough with all of the feeding and care tasks we had for him to do. Our cats loved him, he has a good way of relating to animals of all different personalities. Would not hesitate to recommend him to anybody for daily cat care.”
“Tamia did an excellent job taking care of my dog and two kittens! She sent regular updates and even went the extra mile sweeping up after my messy dog despite no obligation to do so. I would recommend Tamia and I will definitely be using her services in the future!”
About: I have taken care of both adult cats and kittens for over a decade. Both of my cats at home are fully vaccinated and fixed males. I am experienced in feeding, litter box cleaning, administering medication, and have many toys for them to play with.
“Rebecca did a great job with our two cats! Communication with her was great and always present, and she took great care of the cats while we were on vacation.”
“This is the second time we’ve had Katie take care of our cat during our lengthy vacation and everything went great. Not only did she take amazing care of our cat but she went above and beyond with sweeping the bathroom and refilling litter boxes.”
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.

“I’ve used Sara twice now for drop in feedings for my two cats while away. Once for a long weekend and another time for a full week. She’s excellent and I’d highly recommend her. Everything went so well - I couldn’t have asked for more. My two shy cats loved her too which made me so happy. Thanks again Sara!”
About: 🐶💛 Hi, I’m Trevon! Nice to meet you & your fur baby! Ever since I was little, I’ve loved animals with my whole heart. My very first pet — a fluffy rabbit named Gizmo joined my life when I was 10, and I’ve been surrounded by furry friends ever since! I’ve cared for all kinds of pets over the years, including dogs, rabbits, and gerbils I happily took care of everything — feeding, cleaning their spaces, playtime, snuggles, and building real bonds A little more about me! I’ve helped friends & family groom their pets — baths + nail clipping included In 2021, I volunteered with a Petsmart cat rescue I helped clean their spaces, fed them, and made sure they felt loved and entertained My current animal family: • Rita — my sweet lionhead rabbit • Strelka — my energetic 9-month-old Manchester Terrier puppy We’re currently working on training, and I love watching her grow each day! She’s good around other dogs and people though! Animals truly bring joy into my life, and I’d be honored to take care of your pet like part of my own family I can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend! ✨ My Daily Pet-Care Routine ✨ I currently work night shift, but I’m usually home between 6:40–7:00 AM.

“Vanessa was AMAZING! it was our first time using Rover and she helped us through the whole process! She sent pictures, took hm on walks, and gave him special treats. Highly recommend!”
“Davina really should be the #1 dog sitter in this area! She is amazing with my Jack. He loves going to her house, he runs right up to the door. I usually worry about Jack when I'm not with him, but I don't worry at all when he is with Davina. Contact Davina for the best dog sitting around!”
“Tom's place is awesome!! I work at the nearby military instillation and I was using Tom's daycare services. He was open to a meet and greet the day before I was supposed to drop off my pet which was from 7am-5pm, and he met Ollie and then showed us around a bit which made me feel much better knowing my dog was going to be kept in such clean and organized conditions. You can clearly tell how well Tom takes care of his own dogs. Everyday I used his service I could tell my dog had a great time and got to experience what walking in a pack was like. He came home exhausted each day and Tom sent great pictures and videos which made me feel better. As Tom states in his bio, if your dog is crate trained, good with other dogs and has a daily routine this is the place for you! Your dogs will love their experience at Tom's Place!”
About: Hi! My name is Madelyn, and I am a dog momma! I have never known my life without dogs, and I believe they make the world a brighter place! I can walk your dog, do home check ins, or any service that you may need! I also have two very sweet fur babies myself, so if needed, they will always have friends to play with! My husband is in the Air Force, and I work from home, so I am always available day or night! No matter what you need, I am here for you. I would love to take care of your babies. I have a fenced in yard that your dogs can play in, as well as two dogs of my own for your babies to play with! Both of my dogs are fully vaccinated, and have regular vet visits. I am also able to take your babies to the park if you are comfortable with that as well.
About: Pet Care Experience I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet seniors who need a little extra love and patience. I’ve helped with walks, feeding, giving meds, and of course plenty of belly rubs and cuddle time. I treat every dog like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. What Sets Me Apart I really take the time to get to know each dog’s personality and quirks. Whether it’s helping a puppy learn good habits, supporting an older dog who moves at a slower pace, or sticking to a routine to keep your pup comfortable, I always adjust to what your dog needs. I also pay close attention to little details—like favorite toys, treats, or special instructions—so you can feel at ease knowing your best friend is in caring hands. Since I work from home, I have plenty of flexibility to give your dog the attention they deserve throughout the day. I can easily step away for walks, playtime, or check-ins, and I love having the company of dogs while I work. Whether it’s sticking to a set feeding and potty schedule or adding in some extra cuddle breaks, I’m able to keep your pup’s routine consistent and stress-free. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In my care, I make sure they’re in a secure and pet-friendly environment—free of hazards, with plenty of space to relax and play. I always follow your instructions closely, whether it’s diet, medication, or special routines, so your pup feels right at home. When caring for dogs in a client’s home, I treat the space with the same respect as I would my own. I keep doors locked, routines consistent, and make sure your dog feels safe and loved until you return. Building trust is important to me, so I provide updates, photos, and quick check-ins to give you peace of mind while you’re away.
“Trusting anyone with your pet, especially a young puppy, is always nerve wrecking. From the moment that I first spoke with Vickie I felt completely reassured that Denali was in good hands. Vickie and Heath are such kind, compassionate people and it shows in how they interact with the pets in their care. Denali is always SO EXCITED to get out of the car when she sees that we’re at their house, and comes home happy and exhausted from having so much fun. They are flexible, reliable, honest and even gave helpful tips when they noticed Denali starting to eat grass. I cannot recommend them enough for daycare/boarding!”
“Gerry is so sweet and takes great care of my pup! My dog comes home very happy after her time with Gerry. I am so thankful for the love and care she gives to my girl!”
“I felt very confident that Gordon was in good hands with Melissa and Dan! I loved seeing all the pics and know, even with his anxiety, that he warmed up to their kindness and patience. Would absolutely use their services again 🙏🏼”
“She's an awesome caretaker, updating me about all the minute details about my pet. My pet was so comfortable with her and I can tell he really got along with her. The best part is her attention to every detail and investing time in updating me with every thing. 11/10 would definitely recommend her and I personally look forward to leave my pet with her again.”
About: I have many years of experience with dogs. I have babysat and cared for friends dogs and also for my own dog. I recently adopted a cat so I also have a little over a year of experience with looking over cats. I have lots of free time to be able to play and care for your pets. I don’t have many distractions during the day meaning my full attention will be caring for your fur babies. I have a fenced in yard and a pretty spacious home. There is lots of room for my cat to roam around. He even has his own room and his own bathroom. There isn’t a lot of traffic around my neighborhood so I like to let my cat outside on a leash so he can feel the sun on his face.
“Maryori was 12/10! Not only did she take in Cooper last minute she was very sweet and accommodating. She kept me updated on Cooper the entire time. You won’t regret keeping your pup with her. This was the first time but it won’t be the last I book with her!”
“Roseanne’s home was calm and peaceful - exactly what my little old man needed. She and her boys gave him lots of snuggles and hugs, but best of all - he got his first ever time swimming in the pool - he loved it!! (And I loved the video). What a wonderful day he had.”
“Megan went way above and beyond what was expected. She is a great communicator and I knew that my giant baby of a dog was in great hands so I was really able to enjoy my time. Megan was very pleasant and easy to deal with, I highly recommend her! A++++.”
About: We own two large dogs- an Australian cattle dog/Anatolian shepherd/Hound mix, and a yellow Labrador retriever. They are very high energy and unique with lively personalities. We love to take them on bicycle rides/walks through the woods and neighborhood. We both have experience with dogs- John dog-sat as a child and has had family dogs as well, and I grew up on a farm with 10-15 inside/outside dogs all my life as well as many other animals. We have a big back yard that is fenced in, we also live next to a big state park that is loads of fun for any animal! Our entire family and our friends also have dogs, so when we all get together we usually have about 12-14 dogs all together at once running around playing and having fun! We would love to be able to help others who own dogs and have a busy schedule live life while knowing their beloved pet is well taken care of!

“Vanessa is absolutely amazing! my dog was a little nervous & she did everything perfect! & loved my pup up!! she also sent so many pictures which we LOVED! if you need someone & are hesitant go with vanessa!!”
“Debbie is remarkable! Her love for my pup Charlie is a constant, and it shows in every interaction they have. Charlie absolutely adores her and gets so excited whenever she arrives. Debbie is dependable, caring, and always goes above and beyond to make sure Charlie is happy, safe, and well cared for. She gives me complete peace of mind knowing he's in such loving and capable hands. I couldn't ask for a better dog walker, and I wholeheartedly recommend Debbie to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet like family.”

About: Currently available as needed. Would provide play time, multiple potty breaks, and walks with my own dogs! Have large yard and tons of toys. I previously worked in a vet office, so giving medication is not a hassle. Dogs can do as they please while supervised. Working in a vet office has provided knowledge of basic cpr, how to help/ prevent a choking incident and how to orally give medication as well as administering vaccines and or insulin. I own many types of pets and would only trust the best for my kiddos, and I know im not alone! All animals deserve great care and love, and I would love to help provide that. Any other questions about me are always welcome:) I am currently home and available at all times! I pick up my kiddos from school at 3 and we are ready to help your furry friends with any of their needs! I have two friendly dogs who love company and two kids to help get their energy out we live on 5.5 acres and love to go for leashed walks along the property!
“If you are looking for an experienced, considerate, and dedicated dog walker/sitter, then you've found your match! Gregory has provided dog walks and overnight care for our 60lb hound mix multiple times over the last few months and we couldn't be happier with the care he provides. He is incredibly communicative, provides very detailed updates after every walk (with plenty of pictures included), and has shown the utmost dedication to understanding our dog Izzy and her specific behavioral needs. We have worked with many positive reinforcement trainers in the past to address our pups over-excitability and leash reactivity and Gregory using much of the same language as these dog trainers when discussing strategies he used on his walks with Izzy to help redirect and keep her focused and safe. Our pup is very scent driven on walks which can require a lot of patience and steady redirection, and we are so grateful for how kind and gentle Gregory is when handling Izzy. We've only had one overnight experience with Gregory so far and he took great care of our home and left the house spotless! He also ensured us that he only books one overnight stay at a time to avoid any conflicts in schedule and make sure our dog has company throughout the night and to keep her safe in the event of an emergency. All that being said, you will have no regrets choosing with work with Gregory and we feel very fortunate to have found him!”
“She is extremely flexible and easy to communicate with. She does such a great job with Jameson and even gives love and attention to the cats while she is there!”
About: Good Morning! I am Janiya and I’m excited to introduce myself! As an animal science graduate student, my journey with dogs began at a young age. I have been caring for my own dogs since I was just 10 years old, which has given me a deep understanding of canine behavior and needs. My academic background in animal science has equipped me with a solid foundation in animal care, health, and behavior. Through my coursework, I have gained insights into various aspects of veterinary medicine, nutrition, and training techniques. This knowledge allows me to provide not only basic care but also specialized attention tailored to each dog's unique requirements. In addition to my studies, I actively engage in clinical hours at a local veterinary clinic under the guidance of a certified veterinarian and vet tech. This hands on experience is invaluable. It has allowed me to observe and participate in real-world scenarios involving pet health care. From administering medications to understanding common health issues, this practical exposure enhances my ability to recognize signs of distress or illness in dogs while I am sitting or walking them. I’m currently working during the week so I’m available currently on the weekends anytime and will update my hours if need be due to obtaining a set schedule for clinical hours. I believe establishing a consistent daily routine is crucial for both dogs. This includes regular feeding times, exercise, and bathroom breaks. For my husky, who is energetic and playful, I ensure she gets at least an hour of vigorous exercise each day. This includes walks, runs, or playtime in the yard. My cockapoo also enjoys playtime but requires slightly less intense activity due to his smaller size and older age. I ensure that my home environment is safe for both dogs by removing hazardous items such as toxic plants or small objects they could swallow inside and outside. Additionally, I use baby gates if necessary to restrict access to certain areas of the house where they might get into trouble. I have learned by following these steps consistently in caring for my husky and cockapoo at home, and applying similar principles when caring for clients' pets, I’ll create a nurturing environment that supports their health and happiness.

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.

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. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits. I do my best to accept last-minute bookings whenever possible and understand that plans can change unexpectedly. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, a long walk, or a drop-in visit while you’re at work or away, I’m committed to providing reliable, consistent care. My goal is to make scheduling easy and ensure your pet receives the attention and companionship they deserve. I believe pets are happiest in the comfort of their own home, where their routine stays familiar and stress is kept to a minimum. During each visit, I’ll make sure your pet has fresh food and water, plenty of exercise and playtime, bathroom breaks, and, of course, lots of attention and affection. I take the time to understand your pet’s individual personality and routine, whether they prefer a long walk, a game of fetch, or simply a quiet companion. I treat every home with the same respect I would my own and always follow your instructions carefully. My goal is to keep your pet safe, comfortable, and happy while giving you complete peace of mind. You’ll receive regular updates and photos after every visit so you always know how your furry family member is doing.
“Daniel has been working with my dog for the past few weeks, and I can’t thank him enough. He is always on time, and always messages me before he gets to the house, as well as when he leaves. As soon as he met my dog, I could tell he was trustworthy and a huge dog lover. I always feel secure knowing that he is on the way looking after my pup. Cannot recommend him enough!”
About: I have worked in various different ways with animals throughout the past 6 years. I have pet sat for family friends and used to work in a kennel where we board both cats and dogs. I have had pets all my life and know how much they mean to you so I will give them the best care! I have a part time job but it is very flexible! I am looking to do pet sitting full time so I have as much time for your pets as I can! I make sure the pets are comfortable and happy. Just write down what your pet needs and I will make sure to follow their schedule.
“I contacted Matthew for help with my energetic rottie, and he responded quickly and politely. Matthew sent lots of photos and pictures on his walk with Pablo which I loved. Pablo took to him soo fast! He looked soo happy and comfortable on their walk. It was nice to see all the photos along with updates about how he was doing. I think we will be using Matthew more wherever I get the chance. I would definitely recommend using him.”
“Great job. And took pics to show how Dempsey was doing which is very reassuring. The only reason I rate a 4 is because the last walk I requested at 4pm and she was 40min late. Not a huge deal but I had to check in to make sure she was going”
About: I have taken care of my friends pets for a few years now, either going over to their house to check on them, let them out and play with them or even taking them on walks. I currently have 3 dogs at home, and I have been taking care of them since they were puppies as well as the dogs I have had previously as well. I know how to handle small dogs and medium/large dogs, whether it comes to walks or just checking in to play with them, or let them out for the bathroom. I am currently working a part-time job, so I have all the time during the day to walk dogs and care for them. I am free anytime after 9 am. I currently have three dogs of my own at home. I play with them a lot inside the house when it gets too hot, and every few hours I let them out for the bathroom and play and tire them out, when outside, depending on how hot it is. I walk around outside with them to get some walking in up and down our driveway.
About: I’ve been taking care of my own pets since 2014. I currently have five dogs and three cats that take care of each day. They are my babies. I am a teacher on my summer break so my schedule is quite open apart from taking care of my own 5 pups and 3 cats. I offer drop in visits where I can spend time playing with your pup or cat, I can feed them, give them fresh water, and I also offer walking services.
About: I’ve helped take care and train my mom’s dog from when she was 8 weeks to now. My mom heavily relied on me to help train her dog, crate train and play with her. I love all pets and have unconditional love for them! I’m currently in college, but I’m free during the summer so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pets! My schedule is very open, I’m available anytime after 9am. If you have a fenced-in yard, I’m happy to let your pets out and back in. I also have helped crate train my mom’s dog. If your pet is crate trained that would be very helpful!
About: I have cared for dogs at every stage of life since I was a child. I am particularly adept at managing litters, having successfully trained multiple puppies at once to encourage good behavior and social confidence. My professional background in restorative practices makes me an exceptionally observant sitter, perfect for pets with anxiety or those needing strict medical recovery protocols. From the specialized needs of a senior to the round-the-clock energy of a new litter, I provide reliable, high-quality care that honors your pet's unique personality. I have three dogs and two cats of my own. I am working a flexible part time job so I have plenty of free time to spend with animals and take care of their needs. I have a fenced in yard and a park nearby that had a fenced in dog area and lots of walking trails. I personally home cook my dogs food so if there are special diet restrictions I have experience. I love spending time bonding with my animals and would put that time into someone else’s pets to make them feel loved and safe whether that’s cuddling, wrestling, playing ball or dog walking.

“Annette and Martin are wonderful! My dog Riley isn't great with strangers but they were so gentle with her and let her come to them as she wished. Their place has a great set up for dogs. I was so thankful that they were super flexible and agreed to keep Riley an extra night at short notice. Most importantly, they really calmed my fears of leaving Riley by sending texts and uploading so many pics and videos to Facebook. That really made leaving her so much more comfortable for me. They are wonderful sitters.”

I can’t recommend Teresa highly enough.”
