“Heather was wonderful with my Labrador; She watched him overnight for 3 nights at her house. She sent regular updates with photos and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Will definitely book again.”
“Thank you both so much for the peace of mind and the communication & check-ins. The peace of mind that I had while Kaya was with you during the last few days was so very much appreciated!! She'll see you next week. 😊”
“Heather had her hands full with my 7 month old lab/husky puppy. She accepted the challenge and took great care of Meadow. I appreciated the updates and pictures. Would highly recommend Heather as a pet sitter.”
“Thank you for taking good care of Summer! She was happy and healthy when I returned from my cruise. I appreciated the communication, pictures, and attention to her raw food diet. Highly recommend your pet-sitting services!”
“Rebecca and her husband were fantastic! I have a 7r old female Labrador retriever that is quite anxious and easily panicked. I had her shipped up to Pennsylvania from Texas when i had to move and i needed a place for her to stay while I was out of town. From the moment I booked with them, they were in constant contact and reassurance of her well-being. She stayed with them for about a weeks worth of boarding. I had constant updates through photos and videos multiple times daily. They were both so kind and live in a great neighborhood. They did everything they could to accommodate her to the best of their ability, even went as far as giving her chicken when she wouldn’t eat her food! These folks are a gem in the dog boarding community, and you would be lucky to book with them! They really love and care for animals and treat your pet as if it were their own! I will be using them again anytime I need a sitter for my dog Maddie!”
“Audrey and Dan went above and beyond to take care of my senior Newfoundland (12 years 2 months) when we went away for 5 nights. With her age, she unexpectedly took a turn for the worse and they provided really great care and provided updates throughout the day on how she was doing - they even took turns sleeping downstairs with her so she wouldn't be alone. Caring for a stranger's 130lb dog is not easy but I was able to worry a little less knowing she was being cared for lovingly by them. They were also very flexible and allowed me to bring a bunch of floor runners to their house and they were also able to follow my millions of instructions including feeding schedules with supplements, and pills. Their patience and senior dog experience is invaluable and I would trust them with all my future dog needs. THANK YOU AGAIN!”
“We loved Suneetha! My dog has a very hard time eating when she’s away from home and Suneetha was so kind trying to help her to eat. She checked in with us a lot and send photos and videos. My dog is not always good with other dogs and I felt very comfortable leaving her with Suneetha and that she understood her limits. I usually give her anxiety medication when boarding and she didn’t need any when staying with Suneetha, she did so well! I will definitely book with her again”
“My family and I couldn’t thank Jaylene enough for taking care of Zolah. She communicated with us frequently before having Zolah and while in her care. Zolah looked happy with her and just as we left her. We look forward in booking any future boarding with Jaylene and highly recommend her.”
“Excellent family with huge hearts. They lovingly cared for our pomeranian. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for responsible boarders. Thank you Guys Again for giving us "peace of mid" service for our fur baby.”
“AMAZING! Words cannot express how grateful I am for Mike and his family! He took such great care of my puppy, Emmylou. It was like she was staying with family, not a pet service. Every day I was away I got pictures and videos and updates on how my girl was doing. Emmylou was so happy with them and their pup and others staying. The pictures speak for themselves on how happy Emmy was. I plan on using him as needed for boarding and occasional daycare. I felt completely at ease and at peace knowing my pup was in wonderful hands. I would recommend him 1000%. Absolutely blown away with her care! Rover.com is lucky to have him!”

“We are so grateful to have Amanda as our dog sitter! She is so great with both of our pups! They have very different personalities, but she handles them both perfectly and has gotten to know their little quirks! I had to add on several days at the last minute and Amanda was flexible and accommodating to help us out! Our dogs absolutely love going to her place. I can relax knowing they are being so well taken care of.”
“Maria was excellent and took care of Churro as this was his first time staying and was able to socialize with other pets. This was really good as we enjoyed our time at Camelback whileChurro had a good time at Maria’s place.”
“Harley and Scout enjoyed their first stay with Tom! He took terrific pictures of them and they appeared relaxed sunbathing on the porch and happy in his home. We will definitely rebook again with Tom.”
“Ronit is GREAT! Let me start with full appreciation of her taking on our last minute request. She’s been so responsive and understanding the whole time. Dawkins had a great time staying with her. She also provided very timely updates during our trip that was just the right frequency to comfort the owner but not disturbing our oversea trip. Cannot recommend her more!”
About: I've never not had a pup; from bull mastiff and Rottweilers as family pets to a much smaller poochon I've been a dog owner and lover my entire life. I've been lucky to have multiple dogs make it their teen years and have experience caring for a high anxiety dog with severe separation anxiety. I work fully remote with the ability to take your pet out for bathroom breaks as often as they need. I can also provide 2 shorter walks in the morning and at lunch with a lengthier walk in the evening. Your pup will never be alone in my care! They will get plenty of exercise and more cuddles then they can count. We have the ability to crate/gate your pet in a safe place in our home if needed. Easily able to separate pets during feeding if there are any food aggression issues.
“Bella was wonderful. She was very professional and prompt with any communication and I believe she took good care of my senior dog. She has a nice backyard and takes time to allow the new dog to greet her dogs before putting them together She sent me photos and I could tell by his ears that he was comfortable there and she even wrapped him in a blanket when she thought her AC was too much for him. Thank you!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Alpha
Ana was an absolute pleasure to work with! From the very first message she was warm, friendly, and super responsive. Communication was excellent the entire time — she kept us updated with photos and check-ins so we never had to wonder how the pups were doing. Our dogs clearly had a fantastic time with her. They came home happy, relaxed, and tired in the best way. It’s obvious Ana genuinely loves dogs and knows how to make them feel comfortable and cared for. We feel so lucky to have found her and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend!

Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. 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 .
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.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
