Zoo Sitters of Atlantic County

Specialties

Zoo Sitters was established in 2006 by Vanessa Sorace. In 2007, she hired her first pet sitter and Zoo Sitters began to grow into the highly respected company it is today.

We offer vacation pet care, dog walks, potty breaks for pets who are home alone for long hours, companionship, play time, overnight visits, a pet taxi and even farm care. Clients select 15, 30, 45 or 60 minute visits along with the time blocks in which they’d like for us to arrive.

Our services cover every aspect of professional pet care from feeding, walking, litter box maintenance, administering oral medications, bringing in the mail and newspaper, adjusting lights and blinds, watering plants and even taking out the trash. Every client is unique.

With Zoo Sitters, you can be sure your pets are being cared for by professionals and that your house is being looked after by responsible members of our community. We are a crew of experienced, responsive, animal enthusiasts who pride ourselves on getting to know your pet, ensuring them the best care possible. Our sitters are valued employees (no subcontractors) that take to heart the high standards of working for a professional pet sitting company and strive to exceed your expectations. Since we are not a one man operation, you will have a primary sitter and at least one back up sitter, ensuring emergencies never create a negative impact on you or your pets. As a convenience, we also offer online scheduling and accept credit and debit card payments.
