About: I’ve become the go-to person among my friends for pets that need extra care or have specific routines. I understand how important consistency is, and I’m very mindful of maintaining each dog’s normal schedule. As a dog owner myself, I truly empathize with how it feels to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I prioritize clear, thoughtful communication—keeping you updated and reassured, while also giving you peace of mind to enjoy your time away. I currently work part-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available during weekday and weekend afternoons, and I truly enjoy being around dogs. 😊 I’m very mindful and respectful of a dog’s home environment and personal space. I take my time building trust and focus on creating a calm, safe presence so they feel comfortable and secure.

About: While I’m newer to professional pet sitting, I’ve spent years caring for my own pets and helping with family animals, including feeding, walking, playtime, and daily care. Love nothing more! I’m working part time, so I have plenty of time to be with the pups! Monday, Tuesday, Friday and Saturday are my most available days! No times are an issue with me! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always try to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure pets have fresh water, food, exercise, attention, and a safe environment at all times. During walks and visits, I pay close attention to pets’ behavior, energy levels, and surroundings to keep them safe and comfortable. I’m respectful of each owner’s instructions and home, and I provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured while they’re away.

“Skye was on time, communicative and took cues from our dog. Skye even brought a long leash so our dog could play on the beach without fear of her running off.”

“Nicholas was terrific! Prompt, friendly and reliable. I had Nicholas walk my dog every morning for a week just after I had back surgery. My dog took to him right away and got so excited to see him every morning. Nicholas took different waking routes but preferred taking my dog to the field which he most enjoyed. Great guy. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my entire life and truly love being around animals. From playful puppies and energetic dogs to independent cats and cuddly seniors, I’m comfortable with all personalities. I’m young, active, and enjoy making sure pets get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and routine are always my top priorities. Currently work retail full time 8 hours shifts with 2 days off a week that vary. I am available for house sitting however please keep in mind that I will have to leave your home to go to work. Although I can’t take care of pets in my home I have years of experience taking care of pets in other people’s home. I follow routines laid out and provide frequent updates

About: I have experience caring for a wide variety of dogs, including seniors, high-energy breeds, rescue dogs, and pets that require extra patients or special attention. I understand that every animal has a unique personality and routine, and I take the time to make each pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Safety is always my top priority, whether we are going on walks, spending time, outdoors, or relaxing at home. I’m attentive to details, reliable schedules, and committed to providing loving, dependable care. I’m especially good with anxious or rescue dogs who may need a calmer, reassuring presence. I know how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone new, and I treat every animal as if they were my own; with patience, kindness, and genuine affection. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, long walks, or simply quiet, companionship, I’m happy to provide the care attention that helps them feel happy and secure. I know pets are family, and I’ll care for yours with the same love and attention I’d want for my own. I am currently a college student, with my classes being fully remote, so I have no restrictive schedule for pet care. My assignments are completed from home, so I do not have a travel period. Currently, I am not offering pet care from my home, as I have two dogs already living there. When it comes to my client’s home, I ensure all entrances and exists are secure as to prevent pets from leaving. I keep easily accessible spaces clean from items the pets may try to come in contact with. I am more than happy to accommodate for my clients with specialities they require for their pets.

“Meghan is the absolute best caring human for us and our skittish dog. She goes the extra mile to put the dog at ease and always shows added compassion. We are so very grateful to her, to the person she is, and for being the best possible caregiver to our shy dog. We found an angel. Thanks for all that you do for putting our hearts and minds at ease. You are so appreciated. Sheena is so glad to have you in her life and so are we.”

“Angelica was on time & my pup Hazel is extremely shy with people . When Angelica arrived, and walked onto our deck Hazel went right up to her did not hide behind me at all in fact she kissed Angelica hand!! It was amazing to me how Hazel felt so comfortable instantly . Which completely relaxed me & I felt very confident & comfortable. She took Hazel for a walk & I watched Hazel walk as if she knew Angelica & trusted her! I would recommend Angelica highly. She was very responsible & loving with my pup! I rate her excellent! 🩷”

About: Hi! I currently have one cat and one dog, that are my world, so I have experience in taking care of both kinds of animals. I’ve also had previous dogs and grew up around them my whole life! I’m currently taking classes on Monday and Wednesday, and have Tuesday and Thursdays off, so I have plenty of free time to spend with your pets! Currently at school, I have one cat that I love very much. He’s currently my foster cat! He’s very loved by my roommates and friends! At home, I have one dog, we love to take him on long walks and cuddle!

“Keith is extremely knowledgeable about dogs and dog behavior. He’s kind, patient, confident and calm. I have two young dogs and they both instantly loved him. I felt extremely comfortable leaving my young puppy with him for a walk. I knew she would not only be safe, but have a fun and enriching experience. Highly recommend!”

“Darlene is amazing with my dog and he LOVES her!! She always provides the full 30 minute walk which I truly appreciate. She also makes sure he eats before she leaves, and she is always in great contact with me. I truly always look for Darlene's availability when looking to book my dog for a walk. I would definitely say she is the best I have used on here and I will recommend her again and again!”

About: I’m the owner of Happy Tails, a local dog walking and pet care business serving Long Branch and nearby Monmouth County neighborhoods. I’m also a backup dog walker for another pet care company, which has given me hands-on experience with different dogs, routines, homes, and owner preferences. I speak English and Spanish, and I care about being reliable, communicative, and gentle with every pet I’m trusted with. Pet care is part of my regular weekly work because I own Happy Tails, my local dog walking and pet care business. When I’m not already booked with Happy Tails clients or backup walks for another pet care company, I’m typically available Monday 1–5 PM, Tuesday 9 AM–5 PM, Wednesday 1–5 PM, Thursday 1–5 PM, and Friday 9 AM–5 PM. I keep my schedule organized so I can give each pet reliable, focused care without overbooking myself. For Rover, I currently offer dog walks and drop-in visits only, so I care for pets in their own home and neighborhood, not in my home. I follow each client’s instructions closely, including leash and harness preferences, feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, medications if needed, and any routines that help their pet feel comfortable. I prioritize safety, trust, and communication, and I’m careful to leave the home secure and the pet calm, happy, and cared for.

“Caroline is extremely responsive and flexible! She’s the best.”
