About: I started caring for dogs and cats when I was 8 years old, watching my neighbors pets when they were away. My college degree in Animal Science taught me the background information needed to care for medically complex animals, such as dogs with diabetes or cats with FeLV or FIV. I have experience administering injections, giving pills, wound care, and other medical treatment. If you’re looking for an experienced pet sitter to care for your beloved friend, look no further! I work remotely and can spend as much time with your pet as you need. On the weekends I have even more flexibility! Any time you need someone to take care of your pet, I’ll be available. I take safety very seriously and take precautions to ensure the safety of your pet and my own safety. When I first meet your pet, I introduce myself very slowly and pay close attention to body language. When pet sitting in someone else’s home, I always double check locks while entering the home and leaving to ensure that no strangers can enter and no pets can get out.

“Alexis did great with our 6 month old puppy. She was prepared and loved her energy. She brought her on walks, fed her, and made sure she got bathroom breaks and lots of play time. We will definitely be using Alexis again!”


“Anahi was great with taking care of our pup and cat. They were quick, friendly and professional from start to finish. Our pup, Frankie requires extra attention and Anahi handled everything great and updated us during the sit.”


About: From Kennels to Cuddles—I’ve Done It All! 🐾 Hi, I’m Nyaa! I’ve worked as a kennel tech and spent years doing private pet sitting, so whether your pup loves fetch or belly rubs, I’ve got it covered. I know how to handle all kinds of furry personalities with patience, play, and plenty of love. Think of me as your dog’s new favorite human! Also i’m very good with senior and disabled care !! Available mornings to early evenings for walks, potty breaks, feedings, cuddles, playtime, and updates—your pet’s daily routine stays fun, safe, and stress-free with me, and for you I provide safe, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs—whether in my home or yours. I follow feeding, walk, and play routines closely, offer plenty of affection, and keep their environment clean and comfortable. I also send regular updates so you always know your furry friend is happy and well cared for.

“Maggie is great with Maverick! Maverick is very comfortable and happy while we were away. Maggie took great care of our house and kept everything very clean. We have used Maggie for multiple trips and walks and we will definitely continue to!”



“Sheryl was fantastic. She treated our dogs as her own—even though they are all eccentric in their own ways ? She was communicative, caring and just really kind. I feel very grateful to have found her to care for our dogs. I highly recommend her! ??”


“Outstanding care for two special‑needs cats, last‑minute booking, and stellar communication! Skye did a truly fantastic job watching my two cats, both of whom need extra care. One is blind, and the other is diabetic and receives twice‑daily subcutaneous injections, and Skye administered medications exactly on schedule. From the start, Skye was incredibly kind, flexible, and professional—especially given how last‑minute the booking was due to an emergency. I received regular updates, which were so reassuring. I appreciated knowing that medications were given on time, feeding routines were followed, and my cats were comfortable and safe. The initial meet-and-greet was warm and professional, which immediately put me at ease. Skye’s attention to our cats’ special needs was exactly what we were hoping for in a sitter. Thank you so much, Skye — your flexibility, compassion, and reliability are deeply appreciated. I would absolutely book again and highly recommend your care to anyone who has pets with medical or unique needs”


About: I have taken care of dogs for most of my adult life. My wife and I have made a point to adopt large older dogs that tend to be stuck in the shelter system. All dogs are good and deserve to live a fun filled, happy, and loved life. Im currently working part time three nights during the week so I have plenty of free time to take care of your pups. Having recently lost our beloved Mastiff, I've been craving some pup time. I have a fully fenced in yard and have plenty of room to crate your pups. We recently lost our dog so we are pet free.

About: I grew up with dogs and cats (and hamsters and fish, lol) and have been caring for animals for over 30 years. I’m a part-time teacher and artist ready for side work caring for your fur babies. I love long walks and getting my steps in! I used to be a volunteer dog walker in the city for a rescue organization. I am currently working part time as an artist and teacher, so my availability is pretty flexible. I’m typically available for overnight stays after 8pm. I’m an animal lover and snugger. I’ll gladly send you pictures of your adorable pets and love long (or short) walks and getting my steps in! I’ve cared for kittens/puppies and elderly animals with various health conditions, along with your healthy middle aged fur friends.

“April was so amazing dog sitting Dusty. She was kind and very helpful, considering Dusty is an older puppy with some ailments and medication needs. She took great care of Dusty and he loved being with April. I would recommend her to anyone!”


About: I’m Eliana S. and I am a student at Montclair State University. My schedule for this semester is very flexible. I enjoy taking care of and playing with dogs and want to become a dog trainer after college. I currently work as a babysitter for two younger kids early in the morning. When I am not at school, babysitting or studying, most of my time is dedicated to my 3 month dog, Rosie. Some of my favorite activities that I do with my dog is go on long walks, runs, bring my dog to the dog park and in the summer, bring my dog along to the beach with my boyfriend and I. I would love to watch your love one and keep them company, while you are away.

“Brandon was an awesome sitter for us - he took great care of our 2 dachshunds and our house while we were away. He sent updates and was always responsive, and booking with Brandon was easy. We will definitely ask Brandon to come back next time we need a sitter!”


“Melissa was excellent with our old quirky nervous Maltese, who had a very difficult life a while ago. She had a good sense of protecting him, caring for him and giving him space. By the end of the day he was eating out of her hand and playing with her with his favorite toy. We could not have been more pleased.”

I am a mother of 3 children and I have always loved animals. We always had dogs while the children were growing up. I am a very active and love to interact with the dogs. Being around their whimsical, curious, playful manner just makes me smile. I like to keep active and love being outdoors in nature. I offer weekday morning and afternoon walks in the Asbury Park and Allenhurst area, perfect for pups who need some exercise, fresh air, or just a mid-day break while you are at work. Whether your dog is high energy and needs a good paced walk or prefers to take it slow and sniff around, I adjust to their pace and personality. I am confident in handling all types of dogs . I will always make sure your pet feels comfortable, loved and well cared for. I have had the pleasure of house sitting in the past and had a precious bond with the dogs I sat for. I will provide dependable, loving care tailored to your dog's unique needs. My schedule is very flexible and allows me to adjust accordingly.

About: I’m a certified animal lover with a fur baby of my own (Henry, 9lb of quiet sweetness) that I’ve been caring for over 10 years. I own a wedding photography business that allows me to work from home 90% of my year. If I am booked on a specific day during your booking, I will let you know ahead of time so you can approve or deny the amount of hours I will be gone for that day (which can be anywhere from a 1-hour session to a full 10-hour wedding). I have experience as a dog owner, but have also spent many of my years dog and cat sitting for my friends and family. I raised and trained my parents puppy, a Bichon Frise Shih Tzu mix who needed lots of care to control his barking and playful nature, now 6 years old and so loving. I’m experience with a range of ages and needs, including puppies and elder animals with special care needs. I love dogs, as you can tell, and have all the time in the world to watch and play with them! I prefer dogs and cats have been handled and are used to being cared for, with no history of lashing out or biting. Whether you need me to cuddle, feed, brush, walk, or play with your pup, I'm your gal. Note: while I take a combo of meds for my dander allergy and have a high tolerance, I ask that any animals/homes with animals with high shedding be appropriately groomed and cleaned before sitting. If I stay in your home, a vacuuming or light cleaning does wonders. If your fur baby is boarded in my home, a bath or deshedding session beforehand is much appreciated. I work from home, so pet care can be a day round activity for me. If I am sitting in your home or doing check ins, I can stay or come by as frequently as needed, given availability based on any events or sessions I have previously booked. I will always communicate with pet parents about the needs for their specific fur baby. I understand all needs are unique, so aside from common sense (walks, feedings, playing), I’ll make sure to tailor their care as needed.

“Karin was fabulous with my dog Marco! She kept me updated the entire time I was gone with photos and messages, and you can tell she treats pets like they’re her own. I will definitely be rebooking :) thank you again Karin!!!”

“I have known Allie for over 20 years, and during those years I have seen her love and compassion for all animals. She has watched my pets numerous times when my family and I would go on vacation, and we all felt confident that our fur babies were in the best possible care. Allie views pets as part of the family deserving of love, while also respecting that they are, at the end of the day, animals. There was never a single issue during the countless times Allie watched my pets (cats and dogs); she treated them like her own and sent my family and I photos throughout our trips. I have watched her and her fiancé flourish taking care of their new dog, providing him with love, walks, nutritious food, and plenty of pets. Allie understands that adopting a pet is a substantial commitment and has shifted her life around to make sure her new dog receives everything he needs. When she lived in Brazil she would spend her hard earned money to take street dogs to the vet so they could get proper care. It doesn’t matter if an animal is hers, someone elses’, or compete strays - she will take care of any animal in need. Allie is truly one of the most sincere animal lovers I know and any pet under her care will be taken care of with the utmost devotion.”

Jennifer B.
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Jennifer Berkowitz and the exceptional care she provides as a dog walker. From day one, Jennifer has shown professionalism, reliability, and—most importantly—a genuine love for animals. My dog, Zorro , absolutely adores her and gets excited every time she arrives. Jennifer goes above and beyond, making sure Zorro gets not just exercise, but also attention, affection, and mental stimulation during their walks. She’s punctual, communicative, and always keeps me updated with photos and notes about their time together. It gives me total peace of mind knowing Zorro is in such capable and caring hands. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, I wholeheartedly recommend Jennifer. She’s truly the best!”

Emely T.
“I was honestly super anxious about leaving my cat AND dog with someone I didn’t know, but Emely made it so easy. She asked thoughtful questions, didn’t judge me for being a little extra lol, and even gave me photos, videos, and check in updates without me having to beg. My cat (who hates everyone) came out and sat on her lap on day 2?! Unheard of. Also her place is super cozy and clean. If you’re picky about who watches your fur babies, she’s your girl.”
