“This was our third time booking with Matthew for Phoenix, and at this point I honestly can’t imagine leaving him with anyone else. Finding someone you fully trust with your dog is rare, and Matthew consistently gives us complete peace of mind every single time. Phoenix is always so well taken care of, happy, comfortable, and treated like part of the family while he’s there. You can tell Matthew genuinely cares about the dogs he watches, and it makes such a difference. We also really appreciate the updates, communication, and overall reliability throughout every stay. We’re incredibly grateful to have found someone we trust this much with Phoenix, and we’ll absolutely continue booking with him in the future. Highly, highly recommend.”
“Valerie was amazing. This is our first time to use Rover and I was a little nervous. She communicated with me the whole time and also shared photos of my fur babies. I highly recommend Valerie!”
“Kim went above and beyond my expectations for my first time boarding my senior dog. Communication with photos and updates was unbelievable and well beyond my expectations. Looking forward to booking with Kim again!”
“Carole was really great. This was our first time using the service and it was a great experience. The video updates were helpful. After reading her profile and knowing my dog, I knew he would enjoy himself and it was great to see him running around in the yard on the videos she sent.”
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs. I’ve also cared for both indoor and outdoor cats and am comfortable with different routines, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and providing companionship. I understand that every pet has different needs and am happy to follow their usual routine. I work full-time during the week, but I’m available before and after work, evenings, weekends, and many holidays. I’m committed to making time for pet care and providing dependable, consistent care. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s needs. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or visiting them in yours, I focus on keeping their routine comfortable and familiar. In our home, we limit care to no more than two pets at a time, giving each pet plenty of space and attention. When caring for pets in your home, I’m respectful of your space, follow all instructions closely, and prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness.
“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!”
“I had a wonderful experience! Johanny treated Leia like her own dog and made her feel at home. I received photos and videos every day, which gave me so much peace of mind. Leia was happy, well cared for, and loved. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter—highly recommend!”
“Carole was so great with our 3 Bernese Mountain Dogs. It was very comforting not having to worry while on vacation knowing she was taking great care of them! They can be a handful sometimes. Carole sent pictures and an update everyday”
About: I have 5 plus years experience with dog boarding (repeated clients),dog sitting and dog walking. My Pomsky who I've had since he was 3 1/2 months old, is especially fond of dog parks, so we frequently visit, he's a dog lover and very sociable. As a pet parent myself, I cannot stress enough how much I understand the need for,and also encourage text messages for daily updates, photos ,and questions. I'm free most of the week,in the afternoons and can offer flexible dates and times. I'm also available for same day bookings. I can only board dogs at my home but for anyone needing house sitting for cat(s) I am more than happy to arrange that. In all the services I offer,I strive to make both your pet and yourself feel above else safe and comfortable through the brief period of separation. I'm more than happy to oblige to any instructions or routines established in your home/pet's daily routine while also offering comfort, if experiencing anxiety. I'm located near a renovated park that has a beautiful bike/walking track with plenty of greenery for your dog to walk, play and run. I live with 2 very dog friendly pets. I have a 6 year old tabby cat, and a 3 1/2 year old Pomksy. To engage in play, I have a 6 foot bright colored/mesh collapsible tunnel and plenty of toys ! Please see pictures.
“Our two large dogs had a great time with Heather and came back so well-rested and happy! We really enjoyed receiving photos during their stay, seeing how much fun they had! Thank you, Heather!”
“Joan provided exceptional care for our dog, giving lots of love and attention and plenty of fun walks. She was generous with her time and provided daily updates and pictures. Your pet is in good hands with Joan!”
“Allison was great with my three furbabies. They were well feed and received so much love from her and her family. Thank you for taking care of them. She was super flexible and very kind.”
“Scott loves dog and my dog had a great time with him. What attracted my attention at the beginning was Scott’s long term experience of taking care of dogs and turned a rescued dog into a therapy dog. During meet and greet, Scott was transparent and he told me his life stories particularly with dogs by showing many pictures. He missed his last dog Jack very much. He also patiently learned my dog’s behavior in order to make my dog being less stressful and comfortable during boarding. He was willing to make changes to accommodate my dog’s behavior and he prepared well before I dropped off my dog. He updated me at least once a day with multiple pictures. I could see my dog was happy, playful and tired. When I picked up my dog, Scott reviewed details with me what happened during my dog’s stay. I highly recommend Scott being your dog sitter. Your dog will be in good hands.”
“Steven was flexible and easy to work with. He seems to be very knowledgable about dogs and treats them with care. I received regular updates and photos while we were away. I think that Dusty enjoyed his stay!”
“Purvi took great care of our pup Moose! With it being our first time boarding him we were a little nervous, but it seems they both had a great time together! Thanks again Purvi :)”
“Wendy and Daniel were absolutely wonderful. We get nervous leaving our Boston terrier if the person is not familiar with the brachiocephalic breed and they made us so comfortable at the meet and greet! Barney had the best time and can’t wait to book again.”
“100/10 recommend Scott! For our first time leaving our dog, cooper, with a sitter, I could not have felt more at ease! He really treated him like one of his own pets and kept me updated daily!”

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!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. 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 Meet & Greet .
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
