“Kristin very quickly became a new best friend of our recent 8yr old rescue, Poppy. She keeps is reliable and assisting us with potty training going out and ringing the bell. Poppy is excited to see Kristin and let's Kristin know wheat she needs. Today, 6/9, Poppy wanted to walk longer and Kristin accommodated it. We are happy to have Kristin as an extension to our family and appreciate all she does.”
“Erin was great with our kitty! She was super sweet and caring to him while we were away. I felt comfortable knowing she was coming to care for him. Definitely recommend!?”
“Lee Ann gave her best however our dogs are used to family handling them 24x7 and so they were highly uncooperative. She made progress however they are very tough customers. Need to add another appointment to allow familiarization and trust building. She is confident that she will be able to take care of them but I am nervous based on their behavior and stubbornness- typical chows.”

About: Being a lover of all animals and pets, I’ve had the pleasure of being a dog and rabbit owner. From walking friends’ dogs to falling in love with every dog I meet around town, I will make sure your fur babies are treated like the princes and princesses they truly are. No request is too big! Super flexible schedule working as a free lance entrepreneur part time. I am currently available for walks and dog sitting every weekday, and weekends if needed.

“Olivia is the kindest and most caring! She has full conversations with my one talkative cat, leaves relaxing music on for them and always goes above and beyond to scoop litters, clean cat dishes, give them some extra love and even bring in the mail.

About: I have volunteered at an animal shelter for 8 months, taking care of cats, dogs, bunnies, and anything that came through those doors. I have dealt with waste, scratches (thankfully not bites). I love to get outside and move and pets are a great way to do that, however, I don’t have any of my own right now so I’m excited at the chance to walk and interact with others! I work 7am-3:30pm Saturday - Wednesday. Therefore I am free in the early afternoons and on Thursday and Friday. I love to get exercise so I will walk as long or as little as your fur baby needs. I am good at following instructions. I can not have pets where I am so I can only do at home care. With that being said, I will ensure to follow any/ everything your fur baby needs.
About: I'm Michael, your Fair Haven Hound Dog Walker! Serving the local Two Rivers area and adjacent towns, I provide both dog walking and pet drop in visits that can be scheduled on a consistent or as needed basis. Services can be tailored to the needs of pets and owners alike. Walks are a happy and healthy way to give your pet a bit of exercise and social interaction! 30 minute walks (or longer) can be around your local neighborhood or a nearby park, wherever your dog is most comfortable.

I have experience with pets of all kinds, including horses! My goal is to provide a relaxed and happy experience for both pet and owner. I offer flexible hours for convenience. Please contact me with any questions or requests! **Have an open and flexible schedule due to being retired **I will take time to walk your pet for at least 30 minutes or more upon request I will make sure your fur balls get some exercise and everything else they need from being out and about on their walks all while being safe!

“Courtney provided food and water for our shy outdoor cat when we were away for a week. This is the second time we have used her services. Courtney is patient, reliable, and consistent, and as a result our cat Rocky has gotten to know her and become comfortable with her. He eats his meals instead of running away and hiding. With Courtney, I am confident that he's taken care of when my wife and I are away. I highly recommend her!”
“William did a great job taking care of our cat while we were away. He made the effort to socialize with her (which is not easy) and she gradually warmed up to him. He arrived promptly at the agreed-upon times and kept me updated with messages and photos. Feeding and litter box cleaning were great. I recommend William.”
About: Hello! My name is Kim. I am 36 years old and I reside in Ocean, NJ. I've had many years of experience with all types of animals. My first job at the age of 17 was as a Pet Care Specialist at PetSmart located in Woodbridge, NJ where I worked for a little over 3 years. I have worked in customer service for over 10 years. I currently work part time at a farm in Asbury Park. I am also a vegetarian going on 15 years, vegan for the past 2 so I naturally love all kinds of animals and critters.

I would love to be given the opportunity to take care of more fur babies! I fortunately have a very open schedule and would love to have my own business taking care of animals blossom into my full time job. I will make sure your pet is safe in my care listening to every unique instruction that is needed for your pet. They will be followed and done with care. I will also carefully watch and listen for cues from them if they need to use the bathroom and make sure I clean up any accidents if they were to happen. Trust from your animal is very important to me.
