“Great experience. Our dogs are not the easiest to handle and max did an amazing job. This was one of the longest trips we have been on away from our pups, and they were in great hands. Would book again!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs in a multi-pet household, including managing daily routines, feeding schedules, enrichment, and structured care. My current dog has epilepsy, which has given me experience with: • Administering daily medication • Monitoring behavior for health changes • Maintaining consistent routines • Responding calmly and responsibly to special medical needs • Following detailed care instructions precisely This experience has strengthened my attentiveness, reliability, and ability to provide steady, calm care. I am comfortable with: • Walks of various lengths and energy levels • Feeding routines • Crate training routines • Reinforcing existing training structures • Overnight care • Providing regular updates with photos • Caring for multiple dogs in one home I understand that every dog has unique needs, from high-energy breeds requiring active play to senior dogs who need slower-paced attention. My goal is to ensure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owner is away. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I have a flexible schedule and plan my commitments in advance. I am able to accommodate morning, midday, evening, and overnight care depending on the booking. I prioritize clear communication and reliable scheduling, and I intentionally keep my calendar organized to ensure I can provide consistent, attentive care. When I accept a booking, I commit fully to that time and the pet’s needs. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and clear communication in every pet care setting. In my client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully and respect their space as if it were my own. I ensure doors and gates are secured, feeding schedules are followed precisely, litter boxes or outdoor areas are cleaned appropriately, and pets are supervised according to the agreed service. I maintain a calm and consistent presence so pets feel secure in their familiar environment. If caring for pets in my home (when applicable), I provide a clean, organized, and pet-safe space. I keep routines consistent, monitor interactions closely, and ensure pets are comfortable and supervised at all times. I follow any dietary, medication, or behavioral instructions exactly as provided. I understand the importance of trust when caring for someone’s pet and home, and I communicate proactively with updates and photos so owners feel confident and informed throughout the booking.

“If you’re looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and responsible dog sitter; Jim is your guy! Jim watched Kali for 4 days when we were away and he was fantastic with her and was very communicative. Our girl requires A LOT of attention and he delivered. Jim even texted to ask where the towels were when Kali got wet after a walk. We can’t thank Jim enough and will most certainly use him again! - Dawry, Shirley, & Kali D. ??”

“Frances did a fantastic job of caring for our cats while we were on vacation. With 3 Rescues inside and 2 TNR's outside, it's not easy to find someone to take that on. Everything went great and she kept us informed with texts & pics after each visit. She made our vacation so much more enjoyable.”

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them truly lights me up! I’m a former small-animal veterinary technician with 5 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and medical needs (this goes from energetic puppies to sweet senior pets who need a little extra love!) I hold a BS in Equine Science (animal husbandry) from Centenary University & Hartpury University. I have spent my life caring for a wide variety of animals, including horses, cats, and dogs. I’ve even managed the care of over 100 horses at one time! Whether I’m riding in Colts Neck, working in a veterinary setting, or shark diving, I’m happiest when I’m surrounded by animals. I’ve also cared for my own dogs my entire life, including my beagle Maggie and my mutt Princess. I take care of all of my friend's dogs and animals when needed (Peep my friend's weenie named Stevie on my photos page). I’m kind, gentle, playful, and very attentive! I treat every pet like family, and their comfort and happiness always come first (they eat before I do!) I currently live in Pier Village, which means dogs get safe, fun, and enriching walks along the beach and boardwalk. My schedule offers full availability on Sundays and Mondays, with flexible availability Tuesday through Saturday. I made this account years ago but never ended up using it. Since letting my most recent beagle go over the rainbow bridge, I am not looking to adopt for a while but being able to care for other's dogs will bring me great happiness! Now that I graduated and have more free time after ending my vet tech career I can't wait to be established in NJ! I can’t wait to meet you and your pet and provide loving, dependable care while you’re away! My schedule offers full availability on Sundays and Mondays, with flexible availability Tuesday through Saturday. *Hours Tuesday - Saturday change every week (I get 2 weeks in advance notice for these specific days) & will most likely be morning and evening walks/drop-ins (I am not available midday for check ins or walks during those specific days)* I treat every pet as part of my family, whether they’re in my home or yours. In my care, pets get lots of love, gentle attention, and structured routines (obviously let me know specific needs and I'll make it happen). I make sure they eat on time, get plenty of playtime, walks, and mental stimulation, and receive any medications or special care they need. I’m calm, patient, and playful, and I always pay close attention to each pet’s personality and comfort. In my home in Pier Village, pets enjoy safe, enriching walks along the beach and boardwalk, cozy spots to rest, and lots of cuddles and attention! Whether in your home or mine, I focus on keeping pets happy, safe, and stress free, giving them the love, care, and reassurance they deserve while their family is away. I also provide updates and photos so you can see that your furry friend is comfortable, happy, and thriving!

“Angelica is absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of my pet while I was away, and I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. From the start, it was obvious how much she truly cares about animals. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which really gave me peace of mind. My pet was happy, calm, and clearly well cared for when I got home. It’s not easy to find someone so reliable and kind—Angelica is a gem! I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a loving and responsible pet sitter.”

As a veterinary technician with 5 years of experience at Sea Girt Animal Hospital, I’m trained to notice even small changes in a pet’s behavior or health. I’m comfortable administering medications, caring for puppies and senior dogs, and providing gentle, attentive care for pets with special needs. In your home, I always respect your space and your pet’s routine, keeping everything clean and consistent. In my home, pets have a calm, safe environment with plenty of attention, belly rubs, and love. I also make sure to send lots of photo and message updates, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for!

“Hunter did a great job with our two dogs and was very responsive to our “visit” service request, did a meet and greet with us earlier this past week and executed on our the agreed to services . Very reliable, pleasant and mature. We received updates and photos on each visit. Hunter is highly recommended.”

“Kamryn is wonderful! Highly recommend. She was prompt, polite and attentive. She provided daily updates, pictures while we were away. She kept all 4 litter boxes clean and food bowls fresh. My two senior cats are not always easy to please, but she won them over! Will be booking her again for our next trip!”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve had cats my whole life and am very familiar with their needs, personalities, and routines. I also have experience caring for horses, which has strengthened my understanding of animal behavior, patience, and responsibility. I’m gentle, observant, and naturally good with animals. Although I don’t have much direct experience caring for dogs yet, I’m eager to learn, I follow instructions closely, and I provide a safe, loving environment for every pet. I am currently a full-time graduate student, but I have a flexible schedule that will allow me to easily accommodate you and come take care of your furry friends in the mornings and evenings. It is my goal to follow all directions given by the owner to ensure their pets have a safe environment and a fun time while their owner is away.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for some years now since my dad’s family is a huge dog lover so I used to feed them and take care of them. I’m currently a student from Brookdale, I haven’t been working for a while so my availability is open to anyone! I find it very important to look out after someone’s pet since it’s a lot of responsibility! Animals will always matter to me!:) I will make sure to see if they have food and water, It’s really important! I will also make sure to take them out for walks, and play with them. A lot of love and affection as well:)

“Anahi is a wonderful person and sitter! She is friendly, kind, and a great communicator. I was very nervous as it was my first time using the site to find a sitter, but I made the right choice booking Anahi. I was not expecting my shy cat to interact with her right away, but from the first visit, she was sharing pictures of them playing together, and him seeking her out for affection as she walked in on the second visit. I do believe animals are a great judge of character and I will be booking her for my next trip. Highly recommend.”

About: I have worked at a doggy daycare since September now. I have had pets my entire life. I currently have a mixed dog and I’ve had a chocolate lab and a Lhasa Apso in the past. I am a huge animal lover! I work part-time at a doggy daycare, boarding, and grooming facility, and I recently graduated Monmouth University and am currently at Monmouth to study to be a speech-language pathologist. I wanted to spend even more time with dogs, to help the feeling of missing my own! I am always free and will make time to give your pets all the hugs and love they deserve! I would treat your dog the same I would treat my own. I would love and care for your dog because I would want someone to do the same for mine.
