About: As a dedicated pet lover with experience caring for both dogs and my own three cats, I understand that every pet has unique needs and deserves personalized attention. I provide dependable, loving care that includes feeding, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, and plenty of affection. I take the time to follow each pet's routine so they feel comfortable and secure while you're away. I'll care for your pets as if they were my own and keep you updated always! I work full-time but in the summer I am off completely and have plenty of free time. During the week, I am done at 3pm and have the entire night to take care of your pets! I always make your pet's comfort and routine my top priority. In your home, I'll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, fresh water, medication (if needed), and lots of love and attention. I know pets are happiest when their routine stays consistent, so I'll make sure they feel safe and cared for while you're away. In my home, we follow the same routine daily to keep my cats on the same schedule.
“Jeffrey was on time and very attentive to our dog. We greatly appreciated his updates and photos. His reliability and caring for our dog gave us peace of mind while we were away.”
“James was great during drop-in visits with our two cats! His rover cards were very thorough, and he was easy to communicate with. Even our cat who is shy around strangers felt comfortable and wanted pets from him by the end of his time caring for them. I will definitely rebook with him in the future!”
About: I have had pets most of my life. Mostly cats at first, but more recently (about four years ago) me and my family decided to get a black lab puppy that we raised with a lot of love and care. I was the main person responsible for training, playing with and exercising him, and he grew to be an amazing dog! I have dog sitten for friends, taking care of both cats and dogs, and have always made sure to provide plenty of love and entertainment for all those furry friends. I work full time in an office setting, but have the ability to work remotely when needed, all I need is my computer and headset. That makes my schedule pretty flexible, so I can easily fit it care for your pet! I am extremely good at following the instructions I am given on how I should handle pets and (if needed) household items. I will meet whatever schedule I am given, and always make sure to leave everything the way I found them. I am very patient with shy animals and playful with active ones. I can provide exercise in the form of playtime, walking or trips to the dog park.
About: I have owned a couple of dogs, along with caring for families and neighbors animals. I have experienced caring for animals with medical issues as well. I am a new mom looking for some extra work where I can bring my little one with me. I have a very flexible schedule. I will treat you home as I would want mine to be treated!! Any rules given will be followed and if your pet could talk they would ask where I am to play when I am not there ◡̈
About: I’ve been working with dogs and cats since July 2020 with minor experience in a grooming salon. I’ve always loved animals and decided to start my own dog walking business in February 2022 and have loved every aspect of it. If you’re interested in boarding, please message me before booking. I enjoy getting to know pets and their families and always make time to go over all your needs thoroughly to ensure you can trust to leave your animal with me comfortably. Your dogs needs are always my top priority and will never hesitate to protect your baby in an unsavory situation. I can administer a range of medicine, including insulin and administer fluids, adhere to any dietary and exercise needs, and love going on long walks at the park. Dog walking and sitting is my full time occupation. I am usually walking dogs from 9am-3pm on a daily basis. I have a few families that depend on me daily and some for emergencies or last minute bookings throughout the week. I book most of my stays in advance and recommend that if I cannot leave your dog unattended for at least 4 hours to look elsewhere (sorry!). My calendar is updated daily, please reach out and say hello! I always make sure to meet with a family before confirming a booking. If the booking is far enough in advance I recommend at least 1 or 2 more visits prior to the families departure just to go over basic info, daily routines, and to let your pet get more familiar with me. I’m always happy to stay over night, am very friendly with neighbors, and am a quiet homebody type. I would never invite guests over while you’re gone and always make sure I leave your home cleaner than you left it. Your trust is most important to me and hope you will consider me when booking your next trip!

About: I worked for Pet Sitters right at home for about one year. I started a new job but I can’t get enough of taking care of pets and making them happy! I have 4 animals of my own, and would do anything for them. I currently have a full time job, but I love taking care of, and meeting pets! It truly makes my day seeing my furry friends happy! I feed my dog/cats daily, with healthy food. I take my doggy on multiple walks a day, and we play whenever he wants. He always has fresh water and exercise!
About: I've had dogs since I was 14 and have taken care of them for family and friends over the years. That includes small and big dogs, young and old. Dogs in general seem to be drawn to me. I'm currently working part-time so that gives me more time to care for your pets and give them the attention they need and deserve. The best thing I can do is make sure your pet is as comfortable as possible while you're away. I do that by keeping them in their same routine everyday and giving them a lot of attention.
About: I grew up with several different dogs and animals of all kinds. I love any type of critter and in the past I have taken care of senior, young, and special needs animals, and love them all dearly. I just graduated and moved to New Jersey! Currently have a fully open schedule and need to fill up some time! Please contact me and I’d love to take care of your fur babies I always make sure that any animal I take care of is always safe and sound. I make sure to never let dogs out without a leash, and am always careful to make sure a cat never sneaks out the front door when going in and out. And I always make sure to remember things easily forgotten, such and changing out their water!
“Nicole took excellent care of my 3 dogs and cat. My dogs are senior and she took the extra care and attention a senior dog needs. I will definitely have Nicole return to take care of my pets and I highly recommend her for your petsitting needs.”
“It’s not easy finding someone to care for your beloved pets while away for work or vacation. Having the right person stay at your home is the difference between a great trip and a bad one. Finding that RIGHT person is paramount. Daniel is that RIGHT person. He’s kind, gentle, and very reliable. He cared for our pups and our home as we would. If you are looking for someone to care for your pets look no further. We highly recommend Daniel!”

About: Hi! I’m Sydnee, I’m 27, in my last semester of nursing school, and animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. Caring for them isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely love. I’ve spent years caring for all kinds of animals, from dogs and cats to farm animals, and I’ve even helped care for injured and orphaned wildlife. I currently have three dogs of my own, so I understand just how much our pets mean to us—they’re family. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or just someone patient and attentive to keep them company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I know leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful, so I treat every animal as if they were my own and keep owners updated with plenty of photos and messages for peace of mind. I’m comfortable with puppies, seniors, large breeds, multiple-pet households, administering basic medications, and following detailed care instructions. Every pet has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to learn what makes them happiest. Thank you for taking the time to check out my profile! I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry (or feathered, or hoofed!) family members. I can’t wait to spoil them while you’re away! 🐾❤️ I work part time at a casino, mostly weekend nights, so I’m pretty flexible! Don’t be afraid to ask for any dates/times. I will put in my calendar when i am completely not available I have 1 beautiful pit bull, 4 chickens, 1 goat and 1 pig!I take so much pride with health and happiness for my animals and will make sure to do so for you!
About: Hi, I’m Jill and I live in Hightstown, NJ. I have loved animals from a very young age and grew up with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, lizards and hamsters, so I’m knowledgeable on what needs to go into caring for them. I’m able to provide a safe environment with a large fenced backyard for your dog(s) to run and play. I work from home some days, but otherwise I am in my office 15 min away from my home. I love to go for walks, so your pet can get in a good amount of exercise. As I currently do not have any pets myself, I am excited to get the friendship and love that dogs always provide! Looking forward to meeting you and your pup(s)!

If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
