“Christine was absolutely wonderful with Lilly during her 3-night stay! She was so diligent about sending regular updates and pictures, which gave me total peace of mind. She treated her as her own and Lilly looked so happy in every photo and came home calm and relaxed. Christine genuinely cares for pets, and I highly recommend her! I will definitely be a return customer.”
“We were hesitant about leaving Max with anyone while we took a vacation. After meeting Carol we we were reassured. She really put us at ease by sending pictures and a video of Max out for a walk. He was well taken care of and we could relax and enjoy ourselves. We will definitely book with Carol again when we need a sitter for Max. Thank you!!”
“Corrine is amazing! Joey had a great time with her and his furry friends while we were away. It is the 1st time we left Joey with anyone and would not hesitate to bring him back to Corrine.”
“Avigail was great with our dogs and they loved staying with her! She sent us pics throughout the day and kept us posted about everything. They came back home so tired from all the playing 😂 Definitely recommend her :)”
About: I have cared for puppies, as well as adult dogs and aging dogs. I love them all and they all sense it when I meet them. I am retired, so I have a lot of time and a very flexible schedule. Also, I am up very early in the morning, and like getting an early start. I have a partially fenced yard, so would be more comfortable with your dog n a leash or inside the house if at my home.
“Cara took wonderful care of our dog! Cara communicated before his stay and sent photos and updates during his stay. Spanky came home calm and happy! Highly recommend Cara and we are so grateful to have found her!”
“Our sitter, Thomas H, took excellent care of our two dogs while traveling out of state for my sons wedding. Thomas kept us engaged with texts and multiple pictures that kept me and my family at ease throughout their stay. We highly recommend Thomas and will definitely rebook his services next time we need a sitter. Rick & Roseann”
“Max had a wonderful time with Mark and will be looking forward to the next time he stays with him. Mark kept me posted on their time together with regular photos and videos, and I had absolute trust in the care he was giving my boy. I would not hesitate in calling on Mark in the future.”
“We had such a wonderful experience! Our Goldendoodle was so well cared for and she absolutely loved playing with their son. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was treated like part of the family. She came home happy, relaxed, and clearly loved. We’re so grateful for the loving care and great communication! We will definitely book again!”
“Very appreciative to have taken my pup last minute when I flew home for a wedding. Was great with my pup and he loved playing with her kiddos. Thankful that she was able to give him his medications when asked. Thank you so much, definitely would recommend and use again when back in the area!!”

“Patricia is fantastic. The girls loved her and she sent us pictures while they were with her. The pictures made our day. Thanks so much Patricia for allowing us to have a guilt free vacation.”
“This was our first stay with Christine with our new rescue, Hank. He's a big boy, a great dane, so he's not for everyone - even though he's just a gigantic couch potato. We tried boarding him in the past, but he would become depressed and stopped eating. We made Christine aware, and she worked with us to ensure the best way to deal with this if he should withdraw. However, none of that was necessary. Hank felt at home and loved right away. Sometimes, animals just know! To be honest, I began to worry he wouldn't want to come home! Christine's communication kept us updated during the course of our vacation, so we never worried at all. Thank you Christine!”
“Nicole took such amazing care of our dog Dakota while we were away! We’ve used her twice now, and both times Dakota came home sooo happy. You can really tell Nicole genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. She even recommended a great groomer for Dakota, which we really appreciated. She has a nice backyard, and her kids and dogs are super friendly, so Dakota had plenty of fun and social time while staying there. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Dakota was in such good hands. We highly recommend Nicole — definitely a 5-star experience!”

But she was present for them if they wanted to interact and all on crazy short notice. I was very impressed and would highly recommend her! If she will have us we plan to use her again.”

About: I’m Jeff, a lifelong animal lover based in Toms River. Cats have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I currently care for a senior cat at home, so I know firsthand the gentle, patient approach older cats need. I understand that cats are independent by nature but still thrive on routine, comfort, and quiet companionship. As a work-from-home small business owner, I’m home all day — meaning your cat gets check-ins, company, and care throughout the day rather than just a single visit. Your cat will be in calm, experienced hands.
“So so relieved with cannolis visit from Rodney! He stopped by the day before to meet him which I appreciated so much considering this was my first time ever using a dog walker.

I am mostly home, aside from short errands and can walk your dog based on desired schedule. The dog is allowed on the furniture and can sleep in bed or we can bring their bed or crate into the bedroom. I will take them on walks around the neighborhood and play with toys. I can also provide visits to the local dog park upon request.

About: I have always been a lover of animals. I grew up with cats, dogs, rabbits, guniea pigs, and hamsters. Every single animal I’ve had has been given the love they deserve. Giving them all their play time, I have a huge fenced in yard for dogs to run around in and play fetch. If pets need their own space, I can accommodate that.

We will show them love the entire time they are with us!
About: What sets me apart is my experience caring for pets at every stage of life. I’ve taken care of puppies who need patience, structure, and reinforcement of basic training, energetic adult dogs who thrive on activity and routine, and senior dogs who require a gentler pace, medication awareness, and extra attentiveness. I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s specific needs, whether that means reinforcing potty training, maintaining feeding schedules, administering basic medications, or simply providing calm companionship. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I work fully remote from home and have flexibility in setting my schedule. This allows me to plan my day around walks, feedings, playtime, and any specific care needs your pet may have. I’m home throughout the day, so your pup won’t be left alone for long stretches and can receive consistent attention, bathroom breaks, and companionship. Because I structure my work independently, I can easily adjust my schedule to maintain your pet’s normal routine, whether that means early morning walks, midday play sessions, or evening wind-down time. It’s important to me that pets feel comfortable, engaged, and cared for, not just supervised.

About: I’m Jeff, a lifelong animal lover based in Toms River. At 51, I’ve had pets my whole life — dogs, cats, and even a chinchilla I trained along the way! I’ve raised dogs from puppies, training them myself from day one, and currently care for both a senior dog and a senior cat, so I understand the full journey of pet ownership from the very beginning to the golden years. As a work-from-home small business owner, I’m home throughout the day, which means your pet gets consistent company and care — not just a quick visit. Your animals are in experienced, loving hands. Thank You As a work-from-home small business owner, my schedule is built around flexibility. I’m home all day, every day, with no regular outside commitments — though I’m a hands-on dad to two high schoolers, so family always comes first when needed. That said, I’m consistently available for walks and visits in the early morning, mid-morning, and afternoon, making it easy to build a reliable routine your pet can count on. I keep my client list intentional so every animal in my care gets real time and attention, not a rushed visit.” When caring for pets in your home, my priority is keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I treat every client’s home with the utmost respect, and your pet stays in the environment they know and love. I always use a leash and harness on walks — no exceptions — because safety on the road comes first. Throughout every visit or walk you’ll receive updates and photos so you always know your pet is happy and in good hands.

“Christine was absolutely wonderful with Lilly during her 3-night stay! She was so diligent about sending regular updates and pictures, which gave me total peace of mind. She treated her as her own and Lilly looked so happy in every photo and came home calm and relaxed. Christine genuinely cares for pets, and I highly recommend her! I will definitely be a return customer.”
“Corrine is amazing! Joey had a great time with her and his furry friends while we were away. It is the 1st time we left Joey with anyone and would not hesitate to bring him back to Corrine.”
“Avigail was great with our dogs and they loved staying with her! She sent us pics throughout the day and kept us posted about everything. They came back home so tired from all the playing 😂 Definitely recommend her :)”
About: I have cared for puppies, as well as adult dogs and aging dogs. I love them all and they all sense it when I meet them. I am retired, so I have a lot of time and a very flexible schedule. Also, I am up very early in the morning, and like getting an early start. I have a partially fenced yard, so would be more comfortable with your dog n a leash or inside the house if at my home.
“Our sitter, Thomas H, took excellent care of our two dogs while traveling out of state for my sons wedding. Thomas kept us engaged with texts and multiple pictures that kept me and my family at ease throughout their stay. We highly recommend Thomas and will definitely rebook his services next time we need a sitter. Rick & Roseann”
“We had such a wonderful experience! Our Goldendoodle was so well cared for and she absolutely loved playing with their son. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was treated like part of the family. She came home happy, relaxed, and clearly loved. We’re so grateful for the loving care and great communication! We will definitely book again!”
“Very appreciative to have taken my pup last minute when I flew home for a wedding. Was great with my pup and he loved playing with her kiddos. Thankful that she was able to give him his medications when asked. Thank you so much, definitely would recommend and use again when back in the area!!”

“This was our first stay with Christine with our new rescue, Hank. He's a big boy, a great dane, so he's not for everyone - even though he's just a gigantic couch potato. We tried boarding him in the past, but he would become depressed and stopped eating. We made Christine aware, and she worked with us to ensure the best way to deal with this if he should withdraw. However, none of that was necessary. Hank felt at home and loved right away. Sometimes, animals just know! To be honest, I began to worry he wouldn't want to come home! Christine's communication kept us updated during the course of our vacation, so we never worried at all. Thank you Christine!”
“Nicole took such amazing care of our dog Dakota while we were away! We’ve used her twice now, and both times Dakota came home sooo happy. You can really tell Nicole genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. She even recommended a great groomer for Dakota, which we really appreciated. She has a nice backyard, and her kids and dogs are super friendly, so Dakota had plenty of fun and social time while staying there. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Dakota was in such good hands. We highly recommend Nicole — definitely a 5-star experience!”
“Betsy is wonderful!! She gave such personalized TLC to our little senior rescue, Bella. Her home is spacious, comfortable and spotless. Excellent communication from booking through entire stay. Cannot recommend highly enough. Thank you so much, Betsy!!”
“Bailey was very happy to stay and play with Georgia. Danielle was so friendly and welcoming, it was easy to know she would take good care of my pup. She also has an awesome big fenced in backyard for the doggies to run around and get their energy out. Thank you!”
“Matthew and his family were great hosts to our Welsh Terrier Winnie. She is an active dog with a lot of attitude. With their two dogs Henry and Jacks they were able to keep her running, walking, and content. We know our dog had a great time when she comes home spent, worn out, and sleeping for two days. Matthew sent pictures each day and Winnie had a blast. Two thumbs up and we will gladly use Matthew again..if he'll let our 17lb beast back in their home!”
“Hedra was very responsive and attentive. He reconfirmed drop off and pick up appointments, and while we were away we received updates and photos of Ralphie, who returned home safe and happy. Highly recommend!”

I’m especially great with high-energy breeds and love making sure every dog gets the exercise, attention, and care they need. Whether your pup loves long walks, outdoor adventures, or just some extra company during the day, I treat every dog like family and focus on creating a safe, fun, and positive experience. 🐶💛 I stoped working as an electrician so that I can work with kids and animals, animals are my passion. I loved working at a farm and my favorite is group hikes Safety is my top priority so I treat every pet like my own and keep the space clean and secure. Sticking to their routine is really important to make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free.
“Had a great experience with MJ! She asked lots of questions to get to know my dog for a first time stay and sent lots of updates. I think my dog had a great time with her and would like to stay again!”
