“A day before I was due to leave for a weekend trip to NY I found myself still struggling to figure out arrangements for my 5-year-old chipoo, Dixie. I've never left her overnight with anyone before - only for a few hours here and there with family members. Dixie and I both suffer from separation anxiety (from one another haha) and I began searching online not thinking that I would ever find someone good enough to watch my little girl. When I came across Anita and Kirk, I knew instantly that they shared the same love for dogs as I. Dixie and I went to visit and check things out early the next morning and what amazed me most about Kirk and Anita was their attention and dedication to each animal and their specific needs. My specific need was that my little girl would be able to sleep in bed just as she does at home. Whatever your dog is used to at home, they will replicate it! From the pictures and videos that I received for the two days that I was away, I was able to tell that my baby was being spoiled on the Furry Farm just as much as she is at home. They made sure Dixie was comfortable and they reassured me that she was safe and well taken care of. They are definitely one of a kind and I doubt that I'd ever be able to find that level of treatment, care, attention, and affection with anyone else. I would recommend them over and over again and will certainly be using their services again when needed. I could tell that Dixie was enjoying her stay from the smiles in her pictures and I think that it was a growing experience for both of us and our separation anxiety! Thank you Kirk and Anita!”
“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.”
“Rebecca and Ozzie are genuine dog lovers. We went away for a week, and they were great about sending us pictures and updating us on our dog Charlie. We consider Charlie a part of our family, and we all missed him while we were away. Rebecca set our minds at ease by sending pictures and videos each day, and she shared information about his eating habits (we learned that he doesn’t like his beef wet food). We will definitely use their services again in the future!”
“Jenny was absolutely wonderful!!! Our reservation depended on the plans of others and she was very flexible with the changes we had to make. An added bonus was that the doggies were happy. I will definitively select her the next time that we go out of town!”
“Mariah cared for Denver like her own doggy. He fit right in with the family and had his own shore vacation! The communication with Mariah was comforting and made clear what a terrific decision we made to bring Denver here for sitting. We would use Mariah again and again and again! Book her!”
“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!”
“Sterlin took care of my dog for a few days and I can’t say enough wonderful things about her. She kept in touch with pictures and text and that means a lot to me. He had company and loved being with other dogs. I will definitely be hiring Sterlin again”

“Victoria was fantastic! Our dog had a wonderful time, as evidenced by the thoughtful photos she provided throughout his stay! Thank you for the great care that you provided, Victoria!”
“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!”
“Eileen is so amazing! Super prompt during drop off & pick up. Royal had such a good time & got a bath before coming home. He’s been sleep since we got in the house lol”
“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!”
“Denise was amazing with our pup. Sent plenty of photos. This was our 2nd time having our dog with Denise and would use her again. Our dog had a blast in the fenced in backyard. It was perfect for her.”
“Brooklyn was wonderful to my two dogs. I was in town for business and traveling with my dogs. She took great care of them, played with them all day and made them feel comfortable stopping for the weekend in Delaware. I was traveling from GA to CT and this allowed me to relax would use her again when I return to town.”

“Diana watched our kitty Gypsy again recently and did a great job. We really appreciate the care she gives him and the extras she does like watering the basil plant. I like that she gives detailed updates even when Gypsy was being a bad kitty.”
“Melissa E. sat with our three 11 week old kittens while we were out of town for the day. She sent me pictures throughout the day and even crocheted them a toy!!! We will definitely be booking her for our summer vacation!!”
“Sharon's service is outstanding. This was the 1st time someone outside of the family has taken care of my fur grand babies and they were happy. She sent videos and pictures of them, washed their beds, gave us report cards and they left with new collars and snacks. My daughter and I am so pleased with her services. I will truly use her again when I travel. What a relief to know they will be in great hands.”
“What a delight Sterlin is! Joey and Benny enjoyed her playful nature and were well taken care of. I feel very blessed to have had the opportunity to invite Sterlin into our home. She kept me updated with notes and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. Thank you Sterlin!”
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I’ve had extremely large pets and the daintiest little animals. I am always the person at parties petting whatever animal I can get my hands on. Friends and family have relied on me to take care of their pets for a long time and I am always happy to do so. Feeding, walking, play time, and enrichment are all things I love to do and do regularly with my dog. My schedule is pretty open except for the occasional doctors appointment and caring for my dad. I tend to be able to work around any conflicts to help better serve others. I treat all pets as if they’re my own. Safe walks, making sure the ground isn’t too hot, hydration, and some kind of stimulation makes a happy pup. If it is too hot for walking, and depending on what you’re comfortable with, either a walk indoors at a dog friendly store or enrichment in the home, or just playtime on grass can be offered.

I will be cognizant of whatever rules and guidelines you lay out for me to make sure your animal is getting the best care!

I am also able to leave periodically during the morning and afternoon for walks and can work remotely from anywhere if house sitting is required. I have a very flexible schedule ! I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs. My cat also thinks he’s a dog and is very friendly and social. I also have lots of space if your animal needs to be crated at any point.

“My pups had THE BEST time with Mariah. They are rescues from during Covid, and we are working on their anxiety. Mariah gave me so much confidence that the dogs were in good hands. She was thoughtful, resourceful, and therapeutic for the dogs. She facilitated play with her larger dog and sent us priceless videos of the fun they were having. Mariah is someone you want in your dog’s life!!”
“Kelley was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly flexible, communicated with us proactively and throughout Kal’s stay, and took fantastic care of him. Her huge fenced-in property gave him plenty of room to run and play, and her three sweet kids were so excited to spend time with him. It was clear Kal was loved and well cared for while we were away. We will happily book with Kelley again the next time we go down the shore.”

“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”

“My dogs love going to stay with Dee. She treats them like they are her own puppies. They get excited as soon as we pull up to her house anticipating a day of fun and snuggles. I appreciate knowing my beloved girls are well taken care of. Thank you Dee! Stevie and Pearl will be back.”
“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!”

And if weather permits and we are able we often take our dogs out for walks on pet friendly trails to give them a change of scenery. I do have some requirements to make sure all pets visiting and staying with us are kept safe and healthy. I do not take aggressive dogs, and I do require that all dogs are up to date on Rabies vaccine, distemper and bordetella, for their safety and health as well as other pets that are coming into the house. I want you to be well assured that while your pet is staying with me that they will be well taken care of and treated like a family member.

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 abide by what the client asks for in their and my own home. I walk, play with your dog if toys are presented
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!

About: Hello ! My name is Amanda and I have been around dogs my entire life. I’ve recently moved into a new house and am looking to get back into helping you and your pets ! I have never known what it is like to live in a house without at least one dog and I don't think I ever will. I started pet sitting for family and friends about 8 years ago and haven't looked back. I have experience with all different breeds ranging from Huskies to Chihuahuas. I also have experience with there being more than one dog in the house so that is no problem. I currently have two dogs, Leo and Koda. Leo is a 11 year old Terrier/Toy Collie mix and Koda is a 8 year old Catahoula mix. I recently added an addition to the family and now have a 1 year old cat named Sushi as well! I a have experience with other animals such as birds, reptiles, rabbits, etc., so I can gladly help out with anything along those lines as well. I would love to help you and your furry friends out ! I can also provide references upon request :) I currently work remotely full time so I am home all week. I am also able to leave periodically during the morning and afternoon for walks and can work remotely from anywhere if house sitting is required. I have a very flexible schedule ! I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs. My cat also thinks he’s a dog and is very friendly and social. I also have lots of space if your animal needs to be crated at any point.
About: I’m currently working as a CSR at cape vet hospital! I’ve grown up my whole life around dogs! I have my own and love them so much!

“Rebecca and Ozzie are genuine dog lovers. We went away for a week, and they were great about sending us pictures and updating us on our dog Charlie. We consider Charlie a part of our family, and we all missed him while we were away. Rebecca set our minds at ease by sending pictures and videos each day, and she shared information about his eating habits (we learned that he doesn’t like his beef wet food). We will definitely use their services again in the future!”
“Jenny was absolutely wonderful!!! Our reservation depended on the plans of others and she was very flexible with the changes we had to make. An added bonus was that the doggies were happy. I will definitively select her the next time that we go out of town!”
“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!”
“Angela responded to my questions promptly, and made me feel at ease leaving my dog for the first time with a Rover caregiver. She texted with updates and photos. Boomer was in great hands, and I’ll definitely use her again!”
“I will be having Lisa watch hickory again ! She had so much fun and I felt so comfortable having Lisa take care of her while we were out of town. I will definitely be recommending her to others that need dog sitting. Thank you Lisa!”
“Danielle did an excellent job with my two fur babies. She took care of them as if they were her own. They are very nervous babies but Danielle seems to have the secret on how to make them less anxious and to become comfortable in her home. Infact I was told my Junie did not want to leave! She fed them like we discussed and took ample amount of photos and videos. My husband and I usually don't take vacations that often but we really enjoyed ourselves knowing they were in good hands. I would like to thank Danielle and her family again for a job well done and I would recommend her anytime.”
“Kristen and family were amazing. This was the first time Bear stayed with a sitter and he was comfortable and loved the entire time. I actually think he didn’t want to come home! Will definitely be using Kristen for any future sitting ❤️”
“I was nervous leaving our girl for the first time - but from the moment of our meet and greet- Carrie made everything feel so comfortable. She has a lovely family, lives on a farm with three sweet pups. Ellie was treated like family - from relaxing on the recliner with her husband to sleeping in her bed. I’m so grateful she was so well taken care of. I would not hesitate to use Carrie again. She was very interactive with me throughout Ellie’s stay which was very reassuring. Thank you Carrie!!”
“We were nervous to drop our 12 yr old dog with a sitter, but Kate eased our minds immediately by sending us frequent photos and updates over the 4 days we were away. We will definitely use Kate’s services again!!”
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.
“This is the first time we leave our little dog Lila with a dog sitter. We left her for a day and it was a fun day for her. Jada was amazing. She spoiled her and kept us updated with pictures and texts all day long. We will definitely use her services again in the future. Thank you so much Jada.”
“Tyler was an amazing post. His availability was remarkable. We contacted him on the same day, actually within an hour of needing dog sitting, and he accepted our inquiry. His dogs are loves and our pups enjoyed the exceptional family atmosphere. I highly recommend Tyler’s care. He treated our dogs just like they were at home.”
“Our 2 pups had the absolute best time with Dee! It was our puppies first time away with a sitter and Dee treated her like her own! She also took great care of our senior dog. She sent us a ton of pictures and videos and put us at ease and made the experience super smooth and easy!”
“Another great stay at Andrew’s! My flight times changed on both ends and Andrew was graciously flexible. Sadie gets top notch care in a homelike environment wish toys and friends, both canine and human.”
