“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!”
“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.”
“Chloe had a great weekend with Denise! She loved watching squirrels in her beautiful back yard! Denise sent regular updates and photos! It was Chloe’s first stay with Denise and we were more than happy!”
“Kathleen was great. She kept us updated each day of our trip how Charlie was doing and sent pics of him. Highly recommend her for watching your pet! It was so nice knowing he was being taken care of properly while we were away! Will definitely rebook in the future! Thanks Kathleen!”
“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.”
“On meeting Jim and his wife we instantly knew our 12 year old dog would be well cared for. On return from our trip, our dog barely said hello to us, then ran back to Jim. We feel very fortunate to have found Jim and highly recommended him.”
“Sherlin was great and she was happy with my Buffy. She gave Buffy a great report card. Sherlin sent pictures & updates on Buffys stay which quieted my fears. Would definitely use Sherlin again and Sherlin would welcome Buffy back anytime.”
“As always, Tim and Lisa are amazing with your furry child. Bailey always enjoys her stays and we highly recommend bring your furry child to them. Their family will treat them as their own.”
“Mariah is great and really helped us in a pinch, after we ran into last minute travel and boarding issues with a cross country trip. She was so accommodating and flexible and had no problem giving Ollie his meds and some extra TLC! Daily pictures and updates were great. Ollie had a great time at Mariah’s and we’ll be back!”
“Lisa was wonderful with Theo my cat. He responded very well to her gentle, soft spoken, and kind manner. He often slept with her and would make bread while sitting on her lap. She has plenty of space for him to run and play. The thing I'm most grateful for is the fact she doesn't have carpeting. One very unique and creative thing she did was using a small canvas she'd take the colors from his coat and applied them to the canvas and put the canvas in a zip lock bag. Than using Theo's paws would let him create a special piece of artwork. Which she gave to me when I picked him up. She is truly Amazing and I wouldn't hesitate to leave my fur babies with her again.”
“Marci was absolutely wonderful with my dog. I really appreciated the way that she communicated with me and also how much she cared for my dog. I would 100% use her again.”
“Kateri is the BEST! I was nervous about boarding our pup at first but I am so glad I did. Kateri provided updates, pictures and video's throughout the entire week we were away. She understands puppies can be a handful and still did a great job with our 5-month old pup Stella. Kateri has a HUGE fenced yard that provided plenty of room for Stella to run, play and of course have fun with Kateri's adorable 2 yr old dog Maze. They had so much fun together. So thankful we found someone so caring. We will definitely be booking again soon. Highly recommend Kateri.”
“Amazing experience. My dog, Lucy, was so loved and cared for. She had a blast. The only downside is she didn’t want to come home and wanted to stay with her new friends. LOL. Highly recommend!”
“We have never left Huey with anyone other than family so we were a little nervous. We did a Meet and Greet and Kirk and Joy put our fears to rest. However, Huey got sick the day before we were going to leave and needed to take medication. We were anxious, but they sent us pictures and updates on how Huey was doing. Highly recommend!”
“Tyler was super accommodating in taking a last minute booking and kept me updated during the stay. Rookie had the best time and got along well with Tyler’s dogs. I highly recommend trusting him with your pet!”
“Once again Diana has helped sooo much in our quest for dogsitting services as we complete our multi-move until our hone is ready. Harley cones back revived, rejuvenated and as of today actually now knows the “drop it” command thanks to Diana. I had never had a sitter with their own dog but i can say i will actuakly look for it in the future because i now see the benefit. I would not hesitate to leave my pet in her hands as she is friendly, flexible and extremely pet knowledgeable! Who can ask for more. I also love her pet pics! I just hope we settle close enough to be able to have her sit more often.”
“Michael was great with Gracie & Phoebe. He was so friendly and warm he was very attentive about thier diet needs . I felt very secure having him watch my two little girls for 2 days. I will definitely use him again .”
“Jeffrey had such a great time with Pat, we were afraid he might not want to come home! Pat kept us updated with pictures of Jeffrey making himself at home! We were able to leave for two days and one night without one second of worry! Just a wonderful experience for Jeffrey and us!”

About: I have had many pet’s growing up and always love taking care of, playing, and having fun with my dogs. As of last year I started giving my time to a near by boarding and day care kennel and have absolutely loved it!!!

About: *** I am available to book clients in the area surrounding Ocean City, NJ*** What truly sets me apart from other sitters is my experience, genuine passion for animals, and skills that cater to both ends of the age spectrum. Puppy Care: As a seasoned sitter, I possess a unique skill set in puppy training. I understand the importance of early socialization, positive reinforcement, and consistent routines. Senior Care: On the other end of the spectrum, I am well-versed in providing dedicated care for senior pets. I recognize the unique needs of older animals, including mobility challenges, joint care, and age-appropriate exercise. I currently work part-time, so I will have plenty of time to play and care for your pets. I can readily adjust my schedule to the needs of you and your pets. Caring for the pets in your home is a responsibility I take very seriously! Every pet is unique, and I recognize that. I take the time to understand your pet's personality, preferences, and any specific requirements they may have. Above all, my genuine love for animals drives me to go above and beyond. Your pet will benefit from my unwavering dedication, treating them with the same affection and care I offer to my own pets. Routine: Consistency is key for pets, so l'll stick to their established routine, including feeding times, exercise schedules, bathroom breaks, and playtime. This minimizes stress and ensures a smooth transition in your absence. Feeding and Medication: If your pet requires a special diet or medication, l'll make sure to follow your instructions precisely. Whether it's administering oral medication, applying topical treatments, or managing injections, your pet's health is my top priority. Exercise and Play: Engaging physical and mental activities are vital for pets' well-being. I'll engage in interactive play, walks, and stimulating games to keep them entertained, happy, and healthy. Hygiene and Cleanliness: I maintain a clean and hygienic environment for your pet. Regularly cleaning food and water bowls, litter boxes, and bedding. Communication: Regular updates are crucial to ease your mind while you're away. I'll provide you with timely messages, photos, and even videos of your pet, so you can stay connected and see that they're in good hands. Emergency Preparedness: While I hope it never happens, I am prepared for emergencies. I'll have your contact information, your veterinarian's details, and a plan in place to address any unexpected situations that may arise. Safety and Security: I'll ensure that your home is secure during my visits. Doors and windows will be properly closed and locked. If necessary, I'll also bring in mail, adjust curtains, and perform other tasks to give the appearance that your home is occupied. Initial Consultation: Before the pet-sitting period begins, I'll meet with you and your pet (in person or virtually) to discuss your pet's routine, medical needs, and any specific requirements they may have. Ultimately, I treat your pet as if they were my own, offering the same love, care, and attention I would want for my furry companions. Your pet's happiness, safety, and well-being are my primary concerns throughout my time caring for them in your home.
About: I grew up volunteering at animal shelters on the weekends and doing everything from administering medicine to dog washing. At home, I have a 1 yr old chihuahua!

Please give me your pet’s schedule and I will make sure to fulfill all your expectations. I am clean, courteous, and quick to pick up on signs something might not be right.
“Maria was AMAZING! My two kitty cats warmed up to her instantly which, if you have a cat, that says A LOT about how warm and inviting her energy is. I’m just traveling in this area so I’m not local but if I was… I would definitely be hiring Maria every time to take care of my babies. Thank you again!”
About: I have grown up with dogs almost all of my life and they are great! I drive around for work as a speech therapist, so if you need someone to pop in and let your dog out, maybe we can work something out! I also enjoy taking dogs for walks, too. In the pictures is my dog Georgia, who passed away several years ago, unexpectedly. I can’t bare to delete them! I currently am working from home, trying to build my own business, so my schedule is currently flexible. I walk my dog 2x a day. I am not offering in home care for dogs due to having my own dog and family in the house, but in your house, I will follow instructions to care for them and/or play with them.
About: Growing up as a child, I have always been around and loved animals. My experience in pet care is from having different pets of my own and volunteering! Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I am a stay at home mom so I will have plenty of time to play and cuddle with your pup! I am available daily for sittings and walks. I will follow pet owners instructions, communicate very often, and send lots of pictures. Your home and pets will be treated just like my own!
“Thanks to Kyla who took care of my two cats with love🥰🥰🥰 This is the first time I use Rover. Kyla wrote very detailed and warm-hearted summary how the two boys were and how they got familiar with her time by time. She also sent a bunch of cute photos from greetings to eating to playing with them🤣🤣 I can tell she truly cares and enjoys being with my cats, which made me feel relaxed during vacation. Thank you, Kyla! I’ll definitely recommend to others and ask your help if I need in the future!”
“Jamie did a fabulous job of taking care of our two kitties Cagney and Charlie while we were on vacation in Disney. She came every day and fed them wet food, refilled their water dishes and cleaned the litter box. I highly recommend her! She’s super cheerful, positive, loves animals, trustworthy and reliable. She sent pictures of the kitties every day while we were gone too. Absolutely loved her and so did our kitties!!”
About: I’ve pet-sat for households with both dogs and cats, so I’m comfortable checking in on feline friends, too! I’m happy to handle feeding, fresh water, and litter box cleanup. Whether your cat is super social and wants to play or prefers to just do their own thing while I’m there, I’ll make sure they’re safe and fed.

“Our first meeting was the meet and great and I felt comfortable leaving Franco at Kelly's house for day care. Kelly was caring and friendly to our lab. The property has a large fenced in yard for Franco to run around. He had a room with a door, window and mattress which he napped on. Kelly followed instructions and I felt at ease the time I was away from him. Recommend her highly for dog care, and is located near the shore area for vacationing parents. A+ and four ruffs from Franco.”
“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!”
“Our Bichon, Jeffrey walked into Denise's home and didn't even say goodbye! He felt completely at home! The backyard is completely fenced in and just so charming! We got pictures of Jeffrey relaxing and napping while we were out. We didn't worry about him at all!”
“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.”
“My dog Link had a wonderful stay! He's young and a little anxious, but Kateri made him feel comfortable and gave him so much love that he was able to have so much fun! She'll take great care of your pet and is attentive to all their needs!”
“Andrew was a real life saver today. After an unfortunate last minute cancellation from another dog sitter, Andrew took my dog in less than 10 mins and had him almost until 7pm. This allowed my family to spend an extra 6 hours of our last vacation day at the beach and boardwalk. I can’t thank him enough for being so kind and taking care of Blaze so well. I would recommend him and use him again anytime.”
“Janet was fantastic! She took great care of Luna while we checked out the Cape May zoo and a couple of restaurants. Luna had a blast running around the pool with Bo, and Janet kept us updated with fun pics. Plus, she was super flexible with us when the weather kept changing, letting us adjust our plans. We’ll definitely reach out to her next time we’re in the area! Thanks again, Janet!”
“Great Care! Marci was fantastic and she even made my dog a personalized Bandana. My dog was well cared for and got enough exercise in her yard she slept the whole way home. Highly Recommend!”
“I cannot thank you enough for providing such kind, gentle, and attentive care to our puppy while we were away. Puppies can be a handful, but you made her feel right at home with lots of treats (including your own!), plenty of playtime, and a large dose of patience and understanding. Your extensive experience working with dogs of different ages, sizes, and temperaments really showed. She was so relaxed and happy when we returned. Thank you also for sending frequent (hourly!) updates with photos. We felt completely at ease while she was in your care. We would be thrilled to work with you again and enthusiastically recommend you to others.”
About: I have always had pets growing up and my love for them has grown into my adulthood. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for friends, family and neighbors pets over the years. I'm currently working from home and am available everyday of the week for boarding and/or doggy day care. My children are grown and live on their own in their own homes so you can be assured your pet will have my full attention I have a fenced yard and live alone so there's plenty of space in my home for an extended stay and overnight care. I can easily crate your dog when I'm out .
“Charley loves his days with Michael. Michael makes sure that Charley has a really good time. He takes him to a neat doggy park and sends me wonderful pictures of Charley having great fun. Michael has an enclosed yard and two other dogs, so that Charley has fun with them as well. A further benefit - I am in the process of getting ready to move and so it is really nice to know Charley is safe and having fun and comes home too tired for me to need to exercise him in the evening when I, too, am wiped out! LOL! Michael is most accommodating and I have already booked him for the next visit.”
About: My husband Tim and I both grew up in households where our cats and dogs were treated as part of the family. Our neighbors, friends, and family members trust that we are a phone call away to either go to their homes to feed and take their dogs on walks or to have them stay with us overnight. We have experience with training puppies, caring for older dogs with special needs, and taking care of animals with allergies and special dietary needs. We want to extend our home and hearts to your beloved pets and use our personal experience to ensure they feel secure and loved in your absence. We can provide daily exercise, administer medication, and even help with potty training. We are always available to receive calls and texts when you are away, and we will update you as often as you would like so you can see what your pet is up to throughout the day and enjoy your time away from your furbaby without worrying that they aren't receiving the attention and love they deserve. We are home full-time (Lisa works from home and Tim is retired) and are available for all your pet's wants and needs. We live in a clean, stress-free, spacious home in a quiet neighborhood with our two teenage kids, dog Griffin, and cat Monk.
About: I have experience taking care of dogs and cats! Dogs that are more trained and have troubles with eating during given dinner hours! I have lots of experience with shy cats and anxious dogs, given my cat has been very shy towards others, and my dog is incredibly anxious! While I do have more experience with cats, I am as much of a dog lover as I am a cat lover! Currently also trying to look for a part time job, but my schedule is all around free besides on super early mornings, weekdays are fair game for me as of right now! Same with some weekends if given prior notices! I will follow any given guidelines and rules to anyone I will be having my services given to! I am a very clean person, especially with animals! I will follow any given diets or routines with what ever critter you may have in store for me!

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’m in ocean city full time for the summer, and I have a very flexible schedule so I can provide care throughout the day whenever needed. I go on walks daily so dog walking fits into my routine. I’m also willing to travel between shore points to make sure your pet gets the care they need! I take care of my special needs dog, Wyatt, often.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have spent years learning how to care for them through owning dogs and helping friends with theirs. I have experience walking dogs, feeding them, spending time with them, and making sure they get the attention and care they need. Being a dog owner has taught me responsibility, patience, and how to understand different dog personalities and needs. I genuinely enjoy being around dogs and am committed to providing safe, reliable, and caring service while owners are away. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or basic care, I’ll treat every dog with the same attention and respect that I give my own. I’m currently working for a golf club. My availability may vary. But very flexible and willing to work times out with the pet owner. I will make sure to treat all pets with the care I would show my own dogs. I will also follow all instructions from owner.

About: I have always had a love for animals. Growing up, I always had pets, mostly dogs and cats but also rodents, snakes, and frogs. I have also volunteered for 2 animal shelters in the past and still actively volunteer at one with walking dogs. I am currently in school and working part time but somehow still have plenty of free time! I love helping out people especially when it comes to caring for their pets when they cannot, whether that be at work or on vacation. I will always keep any animals on leashes or in the house. I will keep the same principles as my own dogs and will always keep them safe and keep their boundaries granted.
About: I’ve been the go-to pet person in my circle since I was 10 years old! What started as helping out neighbors has grown into a lifelong passion for animal care. For over 10 years, friends and family have trusted me with their most important family members because they know I treat every dog and cat as if they were my own. From high-energy puppies to gentle seniors, I’ve worked with dogs of every size, breed, and personality. Whether your pup needs a high-intensity play session or a calm companion to lounge with, I adapt my energy to what they need most. Pet care is my full-time career, so your pets are my #1 priority. Because I don't have a typical 9-to-5, I have a completely flexible schedule. I’m available for mid-day walks, early morning feedings, and overnight stays. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in or constant companionship throughout the day, I can be there. In your home: I strictly follow your pet's existing routine to keep them comfortable. I am vigilant about locking doors, securing gates, and keeping harmful items out of reach. In my home: I have two pet-friendly setups. Depending on your pet's personality, I can host them in a lively home with my two friendly dogs for socializing, or in my second pet-free home if they prefer a quiet, one-on-one environment. Outdoors: I never let dogs off-leash in unsecured areas and always do a quick 'paws-check' on the pavement to ensure it’s not too hot for a walk."

About: I enjoy dogs and I enjoy walks so what better way to combine the two than becoming a Rover walker! I have most experience with small and medium dogs. I work flexible hours in my full time job currently, I am sure we can work something out that works for both of our schedules! Dogs bring so much joy to our lives! I love to walk and explore the neighborhood with a furry companion, throw a ball, and cuddle up with sweet dogs.
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!

“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!”
“As always, Tim and Lisa are amazing with your furry child. Bailey always enjoys her stays and we highly recommend bring your furry child to them. Their family will treat them as their own.”
“Lisa was wonderful with Theo my cat. He responded very well to her gentle, soft spoken, and kind manner. He often slept with her and would make bread while sitting on her lap. She has plenty of space for him to run and play. The thing I'm most grateful for is the fact she doesn't have carpeting. One very unique and creative thing she did was using a small canvas she'd take the colors from his coat and applied them to the canvas and put the canvas in a zip lock bag. Than using Theo's paws would let him create a special piece of artwork. Which she gave to me when I picked him up. She is truly Amazing and I wouldn't hesitate to leave my fur babies with her again.”
“Kateri is the BEST! I was nervous about boarding our pup at first but I am so glad I did. Kateri provided updates, pictures and video's throughout the entire week we were away. She understands puppies can be a handful and still did a great job with our 5-month old pup Stella. Kateri has a HUGE fenced yard that provided plenty of room for Stella to run, play and of course have fun with Kateri's adorable 2 yr old dog Maze. They had so much fun together. So thankful we found someone so caring. We will definitely be booking again soon. Highly recommend Kateri.”
“Amazing experience. My dog, Lucy, was so loved and cared for. She had a blast. The only downside is she didn’t want to come home and wanted to stay with her new friends. LOL. Highly recommend!”
“Tyler was super accommodating in taking a last minute booking and kept me updated during the stay. Rookie had the best time and got along well with Tyler’s dogs. I highly recommend trusting him with your pet!”
“Once again Diana has helped sooo much in our quest for dogsitting services as we complete our multi-move until our hone is ready. Harley cones back revived, rejuvenated and as of today actually now knows the “drop it” command thanks to Diana. I had never had a sitter with their own dog but i can say i will actuakly look for it in the future because i now see the benefit. I would not hesitate to leave my pet in her hands as she is friendly, flexible and extremely pet knowledgeable! Who can ask for more. I also love her pet pics! I just hope we settle close enough to be able to have her sit more often.”
“Jeffrey had such a great time with Pat, we were afraid he might not want to come home! Pat kept us updated with pictures of Jeffrey making himself at home! We were able to leave for two days and one night without one second of worry! Just a wonderful experience for Jeffrey and us!”
“Very friendly and responsive! Took great care of my Aussie who came back tired out from all the play time. Would recommend to anyone and will definitely be back for future sitting needs ?”
“Andrew was absolutely perfect. He clearly has a wealth of knowledge about dogs and their care and behaviour. He checked in regularly and made us feel completely at ease with his care for our dog Hank. He truly cared for Hank as if he were a part of his family and we are so grateful that we got connected with him. I would without a doubt recommend him to anyone for the care of their animals.”
“Dara is an absolute star!! She went above and beyond to make sure our furbaby Rambo was fully ready and suited for our wedding day ceremony. Dara and her doggos kept him company and very comfortable in her home throughout the weekend. We received regular photos and updates on Rambo's status and could see he was very happy in her care. He was exhausted after all the playtime fun. We will definitely contact Dara again for our future sitting needs. If you need pet care, call Dara and you will be very happy you did!”
About: I have taken care of pets my entire life. I’ve had dogs, cats and fish. I’ve cared for lizards and small furry friends as well. I will always stop to pet a dog and I’ve had animals come up to me out in the wild on multiple occasions. Although I currently do not have a pet, I love sitting for my friends. I’ve cared for all size and age of dog from a few months to 16 years. I believe pets are family and should be treated as such. Im currently off for the summer but teaching summer school for the month of July. My schedule is pretty open and much if what I do have scheduled is flexible. Although I live in an apartment, my complex is extremely pet friendly with 4 dog parks and a full walking loop with poop bags around the entire property.
“Jan was amazing! This was our first time using Rover, and she made us feel completely at ease. She took great care of our high-energy chocolate Lab puppy, Moose, who rarely stays overnight without us. She kept us updated without us having to ask, was very responsive, and made sure Moose stayed active and entertained. The extra crate was also a huge plus and helped him settle down when he needed to. We'd definitely recommend Jan and will absolutely book with her again!”
“At the most opportune moment I had the good fortune to find Katherine and John to take care of Beeto, from his expression I can say that he received a lot of love and care. He certainly had a great time.”
“Patricia took very good care of our doggie that boarded with her. We were lucky to find her on a short notice and lucky that we felt immediately reassured that he would be in good hands. An added bonus was her own sweet and happy dog who became a buddy to ours quickly. I recommend Patricia to anyone looking for a home away from home for their canine family members.”
