“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.”
“I can't say enough wonderful things about Kirk & Anita and their home. Our dog is very large and needs a good workout every day. Their property is perfect with huge fenced in enclosures with lots of fun areas for the dogs to explore. They sent daily photos and updates and were willing to work around our schedule. Finn came home clean and exhausted along with a little goodie bag! We will definitely use them again!”
“Jenny was wonderful with our dog who has a lot of energy. The drop off and pick up was easy and convenient. She sent us pictures so we could see what our dog was up to. We would definitely recommend Jenny.”
“Rebecca is always great with our dog and he loves being her “pack”. Her and her husband are great people and they are really good with dogs. They know personalities and preferences of each dog and makes sure they’re all taken care of. We highly recommend them.”
“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!”
“Our dog could not of had a better time. As soon as he arrived there he started zooming around in the fenced in backyard. Denise kept us updated and did a great job taking care of our dog. Highly recommend!”
“Victoria was absolutely amazing with my pup! She sent updates the entire time to ensure comfortability. My puppy had so much fun staying with her and we will for sure use Victoria in the future!”
“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!”
About: Hi! I’m so glad you’re here :) I’ve been caring for animals for over 15 years professionally, and it’s something I genuinely love doing. Even while working full-time, I’ve always made time for pets because being around animals is where I’m happiest. At home, I share my life with five cats and two dogs, a snake, a bunny, and also my husband and daughter, so I truly understand that our pets aren’t just pets—they’re family. Whether your companion is playful, shy, energetic, or a senior who just wants a quiet cuddle, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m also really excited to share that I’m now starting to branch out and turn this passion into my full-time career because caring for all animals is such a passion. My goal is simple: to give you total peace of mind knowing your pet is getting the same love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own. I can’t wait to meet your furry family and be someone you can count on whenever you need a helping hand. My goal is to build long-term relationships with local families so your pets always have a familiar face they know and trust. Pet care for my own pets and yours is the primary focus of my days! I believe every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their individual routine, personality, and needs. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or yours, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I provide fresh food and water, potty breaks or litter box care, exercise, playtime, enrichment, and, of course, plenty of affection and cuddles. If your pet enjoys walks, games, or simply relaxing on the couch with a companion, I'm happy to match their energy and preferences. I'm also comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering most medications when needed, and caring for senior pets or those who need a little extra patience and attention. I treat every home with the same respect I would expect for my own, and I make communication a priority by sending regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and well cared for.
“Eileen was absolutely wonderful! Cannot recommend her enough! We left our puppy with her for the first time for two nights and she took such good care of him! She kept to his schedule and routine as much as possible. She took the time to send updates, photos and videos. So, we could know how he was doing. When we picked him up, you could tell she took sweet care of him. I absolutely recommend Eileen to care for your fur baby!”
“I can’t recommend her enough! She took amazing care of my puppy, Ziggy, and kept me updated on how he was doing throughout the day. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such caring and trustworthy hands. Ziggy had a great time playing outside, socializing with the other dogs, enjoying his treats, eating well, and getting plenty of fresh water. When I picked him up, he was happy and clearly well cared for. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely loves animals and treats them like family, this is the person to trust. I’ll definitely be using her again for future dog sitting. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Ziggy”
“Jason was awesome! He responded quickly to my reservation request. He accepted even though it was a last minute request for a holiday weekend . My three dogs loved him! I will definitely use Jason again if the need arises.”
“James took such good care of my weim boy! My boy isn’t always the easiest dog to handle, and he can be high maintenance, and James made it seem like he was a breeze! Quickly Responsive, followed any/all care instructions. So happy to have peace of mind knowing my dog is well taken care of when he is there.”
“Lisa was wonderful with my Peppy! Snuggles, car ride, art work, and plenty of love by the family! Lisa really is awesome and very easy going to deal with. Your pet would be privileged and spoiled to be in her care :) Thanks again!!!”

“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'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!
“This was our first time using a pet sitter, other than family, and we are extremely pleased with the experience. Cassie went above and beyond, taking care of our cats and home while we were away. Even our very shy cat, who takes days to come out while visitors are here, was out within a day and looking forward to her visits. Regular updates, photos, and personable accounts of the visits all added up to easing our minds about how the cats were doing, and we can't thank Cassie enough for her care of 2 of our furry family members! Highly recommend and will be calling Cassie for sure next time we need someone to watch the cats.”
“FABULOUS caretaker! She made sure to send pictures of each of my 5 cats every day, had experience with the Sphynx breed herself, and went well above and beyond for us. My animals get fed a raw diet and due to a mix-up, 50+ pounds of meat got delivered while I was out of town. She made sure it got inside and in the freezer without even a hesitation! I didn't have to worry about them at all with Erin, and that itself was a blessing!”

I'll have your contact information, your veterinarian's details, and a plan in place to address any unexpected situations that may arise.

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.

“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.”
“Janet was Fantastic with my Boston Terrier, Bandit & they clicked immediately, EVEN More SO when after coming it to greet us(!& I was very happy 2 see that she has a tall fenced in yard, b/c if the " Prince" feels he isn't "getting enough attention, He likes to Jump my 4 FT fence SMH BANDIT Had THE TIME OF HIS LIFE @ Miss Janet's house ! It's easy to see why”

“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.”
“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”

“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!”
“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.”

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!

“Jenny was wonderful with our dog who has a lot of energy. The drop off and pick up was easy and convenient. She sent us pictures so we could see what our dog was up to. We would definitely recommend Jenny.”
“Rebecca is always great with our dog and he loves being her “pack”. Her and her husband are great people and they are really good with dogs. They know personalities and preferences of each dog and makes sure they’re all taken care of. We highly recommend them.”
“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!”
About: Hi! I’m so glad you’re here :) I’ve been caring for animals for over 15 years professionally, and it’s something I genuinely love doing. Even while working full-time, I’ve always made time for pets because being around animals is where I’m happiest. At home, I share my life with five cats and two dogs, a snake, a bunny, and also my husband and daughter, so I truly understand that our pets aren’t just pets—they’re family. Whether your companion is playful, shy, energetic, or a senior who just wants a quiet cuddle, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m also really excited to share that I’m now starting to branch out and turn this passion into my full-time career because caring for all animals is such a passion. My goal is simple: to give you total peace of mind knowing your pet is getting the same love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own. I can’t wait to meet your furry family and be someone you can count on whenever you need a helping hand. My goal is to build long-term relationships with local families so your pets always have a familiar face they know and trust. Pet care for my own pets and yours is the primary focus of my days! I believe every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their individual routine, personality, and needs. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or yours, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I provide fresh food and water, potty breaks or litter box care, exercise, playtime, enrichment, and, of course, plenty of affection and cuddles. If your pet enjoys walks, games, or simply relaxing on the couch with a companion, I'm happy to match their energy and preferences. I'm also comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering most medications when needed, and caring for senior pets or those who need a little extra patience and attention. I treat every home with the same respect I would expect for my own, and I make communication a priority by sending regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and well cared for.
“Lisa was wonderful with my Peppy! Snuggles, car ride, art work, and plenty of love by the family! Lisa really is awesome and very easy going to deal with. Your pet would be privileged and spoiled to be in her care :) Thanks again!!!”
“Murphy had a great time at Tylers. We never left him before so we were nervous but we were completely at ease and confident that Tyler would take great care of him. We will definitely book again.”
“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!”
“Kate was absolutely amazing with our pup, Swift! After having our normal boarding facility cancel on us due to overbooking before a vacation, I quickly visited rover to see if I could find a suitable match for Swift. Kate responded in about 10 minutes and accepted the booking, a true life saver! Swift loved his time at Kate’s beautiful home. He has been pooped since you pickup and I know he truly got the attention and exercise that he needs. Kate sent tons of pictures which really eased my mind while I was on vacation. Thank you again Kate! We will be back.”
“Jilesa is AMAZING !!!! She should be your number one pick! She is intelligent, caring, and incredibly competent. Ready to handle anything you throw at her. We might start scheduling our vacations around her availability!!!”
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.
“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.”
“Angela was absolutely wonderful! From the moment we arrived, she made both Murphy and me feel completely at ease. I usually prefer to give Murphy time to acclimate to a new sitter and environment, but Angela stepped in last minute and made it possible for me to keep my vacation plans. To my surprise, Murphy immediately took to her and her home. Everything went so smoothly and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you so much, Angela!”
“Brooke was great! She was super accommodating with my last minute booking changes. Communication was great and both of our dogs had fun and were well cared for. We will definitely use Brooke again!”
“Carrie was wonderful! My dog, Murphy, seem to really enjoy staying at her home. Carrie sent me pictures throughout our time away showing me that Murphy was having a good time. This made us feel very good. Drop off and pick up were very easy and I would highly recommend Carrie to anyone who’s looking for a dog sitter.”
“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!”
“This was a great first time experience I was so nervous to leave my dog with a stranger but Tiffany made sure to reassure me that my dog would be fine, her communication skills were excellent and my Roxy had a great time. Definitely recommend to book her if you need a sitter !!!”
