Perfect for high energy dogs - Spring Lake
“Meredith did a great job with my dog, Otis. He came back happy, tired, and well taken care of. She communicated clearly, was easy to work with, and flexible with my work schedule. I’ll definitely book with her again if she’s available. Highly recommend.”
“Rachel was an amazing host for our Cleo. She made sure to know any special needs of our dog and also has a house that is very pet friendly. Lots of beds and toys for the pups to play with. Our dog loves the company of other dogs so her and Rachel’s dog got along like sisters. Rachel was kind enough to plan a day of activities for Cleo, taking her to a few dog parks and a nature walk (Rachel sends photos often so you can be aware of what they are up to). Cleo was happy and exhausted from the good time she had at Rachel’s and we all know a tired dog is a happy dog and care taker. Will be looking forward to having Cleo stay with Rachel again when we’re in the area.”
“Carly was fantastic! Moose was so happy to be there - went on a nice walk in the morning and playtime in during the day. He was wiped when he got home and a happy boy! He is going back tomorrow!! Highly recommend”

About: I’ve spent my life working with a host of dogs - from family pets to reactive dogs or those with complex medical needs . I have experience with all temperaments and am comfortable managing reactive dogs, strict schedules, and intensive care requirements. My first priority is keeping their day-to-day as consistent as possible. I’ll always follow your training cues and preferred commands to continue your hard work. Whether it’s an overnight or an daily drop in, I keep their routine predictable to make a stressful situation as smooth as possible. I send frequent updates and take loads of pictures - so you can rest assured your little guy is well taken care of ! I’m an online student with no 9-5 restrictions so your dog gets genuine care and attention, not just a "barely there" drop in. I love going on outings and adventures (if your comfortable with that), and I prioritize safety above all else. We stick to quiet environments where we can explore and sniff comfortably without the stress of unwanted dog-to-dog interactions. I never let them get nose-to-nose with other pets, or go to high dog populated spaces. I’m currently accepting new clients for the 2026 season and would love to meet your pet! Send me a message and we can talk about your dog’s needs. As a WFH & online student, my schedule is open and very flexible. I don’t have that 9-to-5 absence, and am able to provide genuine care and continuous supervision. Whether your dog has intensive care requirements, a strict schedule, or needs to go out every two hours, I adapt my schedule around their needs. I am available for structured day-to-day care, boarding, house sitting, and can accommodate last-minute bookings Safety and routine consistency are my top priorities. Handing your dog over to someone new is stressful, for you and for them. I mitigate this by following your specific training cues, household rules, and preferred commands so your hard work never gets undone. When out and about we go to dog friendly spaces - outdoor bars, hikes, or businesses where dogs are welcome, while avoiding spaces over run with others like dog parks or pet smart. As much as I love a good furry friend, I'm taking care of your loved one and take responsibility for their care and wellbeing seriously.

“A GODSEND. We call Kathy’s place “Resort de la Vizsla” and my pup Frannie has the BEST DAYS EVER there.

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Spring Lake
About: Hi! I’m Carol and I’ve been taking care of animals my entire life. My love for animals led me to earning a Bachelors of Science degree in Animal Medicine and I am a licensed veterinary nurse (CVTg). I worked 13 years in general practice, surgery, orthopedics, internal medicine, cardiology and emergency. From puppies to seniors, nervous/anxious or special needs - I welcome all dogs. While we all want our pups to be healthy forever, my background offers the unique ability to provide expert elevated care and guidance if needed. With me, you’re not just getting a dog walker, you’re getting a lifetime of professional training, knowledge and elite skill set. My schedule is flexible for weekdays and weekends and I can often accommodate same day requests. Trained in administering oral, injectable, topical medications, I can coordinate schedules should your pet need medication at a specific time(s). Just let me know what’s needed and we can make it happen! Having worked wildlife, zoo animal, marine animal, farm animal, equine and small animal medicine - I’ve seen all sides of animal behavior. What matters most, to not only the animal but to the owner as well, is always trust. I will always take my time to understand your pets personality and routine. Consistency and patience is key. I’m not their trainer or behaviorist (though I do have training in both) - I’m there to be a friend and caregiver. That doesn’t mean I can’t handle the anxious or unruly furry friends - I love a skeptic and the advanced behavioral training and handling I have under my belt makes me particularly suited for the spicier personalities.
About: I've been a dog owner almost all of my life - a mini dachshund as a girl and two cavapoos as an adult. I've also been a long-time sitter for family and friends (Corgi Jake and Lab Rudy are in my pictures), and think of the dogs in my care one of our own. I look forward to connecting to see if I'm a good fit for your beloved pup. I'm a part-time grad student (online program) and full-time mama to toddler Jack (who's in Montessori school) and pup Seamus. We've moved to Spring Lake from Hoboken - days include walks by the lake, ball tosses in the backyard, and the dog beach in season (regular beach in the fall). It's important your pup feels comfortable with us! We allow our Seamus on the couches and will adhere to whatever rules you're most comfortable with.

“Jessica was outstanding! She was available on NYE when I needed last minute help. She even came to the house during the day and met with me and Bowie for a meet and greet before she came back that evening on her own. She went above and beyond with sending me updates as well as photos and videos, and even did other things like refill his food and water and remove his collar once he was in for the night (as I requested). My dog instantly was comfortable around her and you can see that she is very professional and passionate about her job. 10/10 recommend, she was so kind and a true life saver!”
“This app does not do justice with tipping because Erin is just downright amazing. Thank you for taking care of my little man and his home so well and sending me the best photos of him.”

About: I approach each pet like you would a human by meeting their needs with love. I keep a clean house as well as the fur baby. I am very accommodating and friendly.

If anything changes or comes up, I will provide as much notice as possible. Caring for pets is a passion, and I prioritize safety, trust, and a nurturing environment in every interaction. Whether your pet is staying in my home or I'm visiting yours, their well-being is always my top priority. In my house, I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space where your pet can feel safe and loved. I ensure that the environment is free of hazards, with secure spaces for play, rest, and relaxation. I also keep a close eye on pets during outdoor time to ensure they are always safe and secure. I follow your pet's routines to minimize stress and create a sense of familiarity. I keep their food, water, and toys organized and accessible while providing plenty of playtime, walks, and affection.

She kept us updated with frequent messages and adorable photos, which really helped us relax knowing our pup was in good hands. Our dog looked so happy and well cared for the entire time. We’ll definitely be booking with her again — highly recommend!”
“My large 2 yr old doodle pup Rooney was a repeat client of Jonathan's this summer. He's very nice, dependable, flexible & has reasonable rates. He had great communication on logistics as well as providing updates on Roo. He was very accommodating with early morn./late night pick-ups/drop-offs which was much appreciated. I trusted that Roo was well cared for & having fun with walks & playtime in the big fenced yard.”
“I am new to NJ and was slightly nervous about leaving my dogs while I was out of town for a weekend as they have always stayed with family, but Corrine made it so easy! She sent me several pictures and answered any questions I had during their stay. They came home very happy and very tired from playing so much. Thank you Corrine!! 🤍”
