Pet Sitter in Red Bank, New Jersey

Why traumatize your dog(s) (or PUPPY!) while you're away by shipping it off to a strange locale such as a vet, boarder or other location? I come to YOUR home and spend quality time overnight with your pet while you're away, not just an a.m./p.m. visit! I'm available in the towns of Red Bank, Little Silver, Fair Haven, Oceanport, Rumson, Tinton Falls, Sea Bright and towns close-by (extra charge for towns outside a 5-mi. radius), primarily for overnights ONLY; I am not a "daily dogwalking service." I prefer not to catsit, but, will do so @ a charge of $5 ex./day. During my stay, I will provide early a.m. walks if you desire, playtime, let the dog(s) sleep in bed w/me (most dogs do!), and carry him/her up to bedroom, if needed. If needed, I will act as a "pet taxi" (doggy day care, etc.) I've dogsat dozens of "special needs" dogs (deaf, cataracts, arthritis, etc.) and am well-suited to it. However, I charge an additional $5/day for "needs" such as administering Rx, special diets/feeding habits, cooking for your pet, etc. I also perform tasks which I feel aren't important to your PET, but might be to you: Turn on/off lights (a "no-brainer" unless I plan on entering your home w/a flashlight), bringing out trash, watering plants indoors and out (spring/summer), bringing in the mail (another "no-brainer"!), etc. I also clean the home (rooms I've used) from top to bottom following my visit, which includes light vacuuming if I leave too many "dust bunnies" on the carpet! I have been dogsitting for more than 16 years, and have excellent references.
