Personalized care for your dog or cat - Swainton
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Swainton
“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.”
“Kelley was so easy going and great with communication before and during the dogs stay. She was very friendly and accommodating. She had a big room for them to roam and a fenced yard to keep them safe when out for potty breaks. She had a whole set up for them with a raised dog bed, XLarge crate, raised food dishes, and a large water dish in the big safe room they were in. Will be using her again in the future!”
“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!”
“Kirk and Joy hosted my pups, Beckett and Trix for the past few days. I don’t think they wanted to come home after being so spoiled. As a pet parent, I was thrilled with timely communication, daily pictures and a safe environment for my pups. Peace of mind is priceless and Kirk/Joy do everything possible to make it happen!”
“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!”
“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.”
“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!”
“The timing of our rescue arriving & out pre-purchased/non-refundable/pet-free vacation couldn’t have been worse: we only had one week with our sweet London before we had to leave her. As such, we spent a LOT of time reading reviews for a sitter who would provide a lot of attention, affection, and consistency. We truly couldn’t have picked a better person than Denise. We explained the pickle we found ourselves in and Denise immediately understood & put our minds at ease. From the first meeting, we could tell Denise loved dogs. She has a great backyard full of toys that our pup adored, and above all, Denise’s kind and gentle demeanor made London right at home. The frequent updates and photos made us certain we made the right choice. They certainly bonded over their week together & we will be sure to use Denise in the future! We recommend Denise 100%.”
“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.”
“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 ?”
“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!”
“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!”
“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 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!!!”
“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!!”
“Definitely a star sitter! Diana and her husband are wonderful and took such nice care of our dog while we were at the beach. Book Diana! She will do a great job caring for your pup and keeping you updated.”

I can’t wait to meet your fur baby!! I am a teacher which allows me to have all summer to care for your pets! Along with before or after school walk and weekends! At my own home I have a fenced in yard that allows for us to play outside comfortably without any other outside distractions! I have a dog of my own but she goes back and forth between my house and my parents so I can allow for comfortable care without another dog at my house. I do have 2 cats as well!
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: I am especially good at training puppy’s and also solving behavioral problems. I have the energy and patience to take dogs on short or long walks. Love exploring local parks so dog can be socialized. The other specialty I have is bird hunting dogs. I had a pure breed Vizsla for 14 years who I trained myself. We traveled to SD,ND and Iowa. I got to appreciate the abilities of what a dog is bred for. I have been retired from FEDs for 15 years and have been the primary care taker for all family pets. I trained my Vizsla to bird hunt. My Boston Terrier is universally a playmate of choice I have a one acre property with an electric fence. It’s pristinely manicured and serves as a great location for dog fun and guided exploration.

“Kelley was so easy going and great with communication before and during the dogs stay. She was very friendly and accommodating. She had a big room for them to roam and a fenced yard to keep them safe when out for potty breaks. She had a whole set up for them with a raised dog bed, XLarge crate, raised food dishes, and a large water dish in the big safe room they were in. Will be using her again in the future!”
“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 ?”
“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!”
“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!”
“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 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!!!”
“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!!”
“Definitely a star sitter! Diana and her husband are wonderful and took such nice care of our dog while we were at the beach. Book Diana! She will do a great job caring for your pup and keeping you updated.”
“Our Bichon, Jeffrey loves his Aunt Patti! When we dropped him off, he made himself right at home without a look in our direction! He celebrated Thanksgiving with Pat and her family, again making himself at home sitting on the couch with her soon to be son-in-law watching the game! We didn't worry at all about Jeffrey. Pat kept us updated with pictures and adorable videos of his days there! We were able to enjoy a few days with my husband's family for Thanksgiving without a single worry. I know Jeffrey can't wait to see his new family again!”
“Thank you, Tyler, for your care and attention to my babies. Gryffin and Zuzu had a wonderful time with you. Your home and your property are beautiful and exactly what they needed. I luv the pictures and updates you sent throughout the visit and your luv of animals and attention to their care shows in every way! Again, thank you, I truly appreciate you 🤩”
“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.”
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.
“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.”
“You couldn’t find a more attentive sitter than Jared! My dog was very well cared for (spoiled) as the only pet in his home. Jared sent many photos of our dog with him, even at the driving range! My dog was probably a little sad when I picked him up. I will definitely use Jared whenever I need a sitter!”
“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 ❤️”
