“My first time leaving Axel watched my nerves up until we finally met Rebecca. She and her home were more inviting than I could ever have imagined! From the warm welcome of her and the other pups, to the spacious, yet safe, yard they roamed around I had no not concerned on if my fur son would be ok. If recommend anyone who needs a did sitter to Rebecca. I have a Pitt but from what I've sent e first hand she's sitting a genre of breeds. Hand your fur baby over to her and I promise you'll love the way she loves them as of they were here own. Definitely a returning fur Mommy”
“Nyema took really good care of my furry buddy Corky for a whole week. We did a meet and greet before my scheduled trip. Each day while I was away she sent a picture for me to see he was ok. She was even concerned that he wasn’t drinking any water or eating much the first couple days. After a couple days he adjusted and started to drink and show her his fun personality. He interacted with little ones too and played with them. I was in another state working but was never worried about him being away from me for so many days. I picked him up and he was happy. I’ll definitely use her again.”
“We continue to trust her with our dog every time we go on away, and she never disappoint! Our dog is always happy, well cared for, and treated like family. The updates and photos give us great peace of mind while we’re away. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter!”
“Amy was so sweet and easy to make arrangements with! It made me feel good when she told me that Bear enjoyed hanging out with her family. Her daily updates and pictures were a treat. I would not hesitate to board Bear at Amy’s again.”
“Kristen was a wonderful dog sitter. Our 15 year old gal was well cared for. We received daily text and photo updates during her stay. We will definitely use Kristen again and highly recommend her to you!”
“Thank you John and Michelle for watching our Havanese. This was the first time shes been watched outside of family. Seems she had great time making new friends. Thank you again for taking such good care of our girl.”
“A++++ Our puppy Lulu had the best weekend with Carrie & family! Everything perfect and she was taken care of as if one of their own. We could not be more pleased especially with this being the first time we were away from her, and the first time we tried the Rover app. Thank you so much!! - Highly recommend! 👍👍”
“We could not be more pleased with Kara’s care of our dog. This was our first visit and she treated him like part of the family with daily updates and pictures for us. We could not recommend her more. Thanks to her we had a relaxing vacation with no worries.”
“My Bella a 8 pound Yorkie stayed with Nantikan for a few days, and she sent me text messages and pictures. I would recommend her for your dogs 🐕 stay. She was very nice and very caring. She has a huge fenced in yard, and dogs of her own.”
“Katie, John and their family were wonderful. Macie was so well taken care of we were afraid she wouldn’t want to come home!! They will be our go to Rover family from now on.”
“Monica & Conrad were wonderful caregivers to our pups while our family went on vacation. They sent daily updates & lots of adorable pics! By the communication, we can tell our dogs were given lots of loving care, treats, fun activities like walks/parks as well as lots of affection. Easy to book and reasonable. Our pups also enjoyed playing with their pup Pongo! We will definitely be booking them again in the future!”
“For the first time ever, I was unable to find a member of my family to watch our dog Ralphie while my family and I went out of state. I was nervous and apprehensive to leave him with anyone other than family, but after recommendations via Facebook I was directed to Ashley. I am so happy I found her and her family. From the first conversation with Ashley, I instantly felt comfortable. We had an opportunity to have meet a greet prior to our pups stay and I could tell he felt comfortable and at home! Ashley answered all my questions and eased worries. I really appreciated Ashley sending me pictures and updates while I was away. I would absolutely book with Ashley again!”
“Did a great job to make my dogs feel comfortable and at home. One is kinda skiddish but he warmed up immediately. Would recommend to others and book again for sure.”
“Amazing sitter. She took such good care of my older dog over the holidays and kept me updated on how he was doing. If I wasn't moving across the country I would definitely book Cindy again.”
“Kristina was so patient and sweet with Olive, who can be nervous and shy. By day 2, Kristina was sending us pictures of Olive belly up and happily napping next to Kristina on the couch and Olive completely made herself at home. Olive’s stay overlapped with a major heatwave, and Kristina made sure to get Olive out early in the AM for a nice walk each morning before it got too hot. I would definitely recommend Kristina for attentive and loving care for your pet!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly Recommend April! April was an absolutely wonderful pet sitter for my dog. From the moment we connected, I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in such caring and capable hands. She provided regular updates throughout the stay, which helped me feel connected and reassured while I was away. The pictures she sent were priceless and clearly showed how happy, comfortable, and well cared for my dog was. What truly set April apart was how much love and attention her entire family gave my dog. It was obvious that my pup wasn't just being watched, but was welcomed as part of the family. The affection, playtime, and companionship they provided made all the difference. I could tell my dog was having a wonderful time and was genuinely cared for. I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional care April and her family provided and would trust them again without hesitation. Highly recommended! 🐾❤️”
“We left our dog for the first time for an overnight visit. She has anxiety & I was nervous to leave her. I received photos and updates that she as doing ok & I was able to relax. She was well taken care of and is a happy girl. Thank you Kevin & Vanessa!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Alliance home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Alliance.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Alliance sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NJ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
