“Laurie was wonderful! Mick responded to her right away and was purring at the first visit! So lovely to come home to a happy cat??? Thanks again Laurie!”


“Kathy & John did a wonderful job with our 4 cats. They were on time with all of their visits and provided updates (text and images) with every visit. Kathy & John took care of our cats for a full week (Saturday-Saturday). Our cats were happy and well taken care of!!!”


“Erin was very kind and caring with my two cats that are very frightened of strangers. It was good to see the pictures of them to see they were doing fine without us there for their first time with us being away for a long period of time. She was very prompt in getting to them at the designated times. I will definitely request her again.”


“This was our first time leaving our cats for a long weekend, and Elizabeth made the experience completely stress-free! She followed our feeding instructions perfectly, gave the kitties plenty of playtime, and even earned the trust of our shy boy—no small feat. Her calm, caring energy was exactly what they needed, and it was clear they adored her. We’re so grateful for the peace of mind she gave us while we were away. We’ll definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to any cat families looking for a reliable, thoughtful sitter!”


“Thank you so much Anahi!”


“Olivia is absolutely fantastic. she took care of my kitty for me while I was away and I am so grateful. Do yourself a favor and hire her for peace of mind and excellent service for your fur baby?”


“Michelle is AMAZING. I’m so grateful for her attentiveness and kindness - I was truly able to relax while being away knowing that our cats were in good hands. Not only did she provide incredible care to the cats, she was super easy to communicate with. She responded to my messages quickly and always provided thorough but concise updates. Couldn’t have asked for better care!”


“Jessica is the very best sitter! She is a caring person who keeps my cat's best interest in mind and communicates with me on a regular basis. I also have complete trust her as a housesitter.”


“Wonderful experience working with Regina!”


About: I grew up with dogs. A dog, sometimes two or three, was always in our house and a part of my family. I’ve been around dogs of all ages, sizes and breeds, understanding each one is unique and needs certain care. I have helped train a chocolate lab (a very energetic boy named Brody) from a puppy. I understand dogs are a part of your family and will provide that love and care towards them. I care for my two cats, Avy and Moose along with my partner. Since we share responsibilities of our cats and my 9-5 job is remote I am able to schedule sits and walks regularly. My girlfriend and I currently have two cats who are a part of our everyday lives. They like to wake us up and sun bath by the windows. We love them

About: I am an animal lover and long time dog owner. I am currently living in an apartment which does not allow pets. I understand the anxiety that comes with leaving your fur baby behind while traveling or for a long day at work or play. I would like to provide for you the peace of mind required to relax and know your pet is under the very best care. My work schedule is very flexible. I am available most days, evenings and overnighters if need be. My weekends are also open for scheduling purposes. I am unable to care for pets at my apartment but I am more than happy to care for your pets in their own environment in your home. Your pet will remain comfortable and confident in your absence because they will continue to have their comforts of home.

“Hope was excellent!”


About: Hi! My name is Carly (: I am a 27 year old with a deep love for animals! When I was younger I was a part of the 4H club near home, which is a national club that supports the welfare of all animals through donations and events. I have owned 7 dogs, 3 cats, 2 rabbits and a hamster throughout my life and have been providing care to all animals for many years now. I am a nature lover, and I appreciate all pets of all kinds. I am looking to help those in need, and enjoy spending time with any animals I can. I am a teacher during the school year, free on the weekends and have open availability during the summer! (: I am a teacher, so over the summer months I have open availability! But during the school year I am available for overnights on the weekends, and anytime after 3pm on weekdays for drop ins, walks, feedings, ect, and anytime on the weekends! I have experience with crate training, leash training, feeding/treats, administering medication, working with special needs pets, walking multiple dogs at once, and nervous pets. I promise to always provide a gentle, yet confident environment for you and your pet/s. I understand that our pets are family members and deserve to be treated with love and respect, as well as lots of head scratches. (: I have a dog named Willow at home. Willow absolutely adores other dogs and loves having them over for doggy day cares!

About: Animals are such an extension of family and should be treated as such. I've had dogs and other animals through the years and provided general care & SO much love. I'm open to special needs animals whether medications or other, I'll learn anything to help care for an animal. I'd spend all my time with animals if I could but my availability is primarily Tuesday Wednesday & Thursday. I work in emergency services which can make other days questionable due to my schedule being able to change last minute, though I am flexible and will work with my clients the best .. just ask! I have worked in a doggy daycare so I have experience with several breeds and situations. How you want your pet cared for is how I will care for them. I'm an "animal spoiler" they deserve to be spoiled since all they do is LOVE us, it's the least we can do. There is no shortage of love and attentiveness with animals when it comes to me.


“Anna was amazing and made everything so easy. She took wonderful care of my cat and would absolutely trust her for future care. ❤️ Thank you so much Anna!”


About: I am an approved veterinary assistant by NAVTA (National Association of Veterinary Technicians in America). Throughout the past year I have learned about all different types of animals and their behaviors through both didactic learning and hands on rotating clinical experience. My rotations include animal husbandry, surgery, oncology, physical therapy, recovery, radiology, ultrasound, and so much more. I am an aspiring veterinarian and currently an undergrad majoring in biology. I am currently working part time which gives me plenty of time to spend with your pups! Either long or short walks I am willing to help out in any way I can. Your trust in me is my number one priority! I know how much love and care you have for your pets and I feel the same way. I respect and understand how much these animals mean to a family which is why my dream is to help them.

About: A life-long dog owner, I’ve been taking care of dogs all sizes and ages since I was 13 years old. I pride myself in being reliable and extremely engaging with animals. I communicate with each client to determine their pet care needs and strive to create a stress-free experience for everyone! I currently work full-time from 8:30 am - 5 pm in Asbury Park. I am available before work from 6 am to 8 am, or anytime after work. I am also available on weekends! I live in a small apartment three blocks from the beach with my French Bulldog, Bean! My street is very safe and offers a great ambiance for walks. I’m happy to offer my cozy space for daycare or sleepovers, but I can only accommodate one other medium/large dog or two small dogs. If your dog is crate-trained, please plan on bringing it!

About: I've never met a dog I didn't like. I raised a family of animal lovers. We had dogs, cats, snakes, and even scorpions. I'm intuitive, kind, and patient. I'm currently working part-time, so I have room in my schedule. I'm available from 6am through the evening weekdays. I am also available some weekends. I am discreet, quiet, and respectful of your home. I offer quick potty breaks, walks in your neighborhood or at a park, and playtime on your property.

About: Hi! I recently took a short break from Rover while undergoing treatment for breast cancer—I’m doing great now and really looking forward to getting back to what I love: spending time with animals! I’ve been caring for pets since my early teens and have experience with animals of all shapes and sizes. One of the most memorable chapters of my life was working on a TV show filmed at an animal sanctuary, where I helped care for a crew of 99 animals—everything from dogs and cats to kangaroos and lemurs. Over the years, I’ve also volunteered at shelters and fostered both dogs and cats, gaining hands-on experience with animals of all ages, energy levels, and special needs. Whether it’s an energetic puppy, a shy senior, or anything in between, I’m comfortable providing gentle, attentive care. I am completely flexible! Even on holidays! Currently on leave from my film industry career, I have the freedom to dedicate ample time and attention to your lil buddies. I'm currently responsible for the well-being of a diverse fur family, which includes one dog and two kitties. Meticulously, I manage their feeding and bathroom schedules, keeping track of their unique dietary needs and allergies, ensuring that they never get the wrong meal. Beyond the basics, I offer hours of stimulating walks, playtime, and cozy cuddles. However, I always remember that when it comes to your pets, the pet parents are the ultimate bosses. Your instructions and preferences guide my care, ensuring that your furry companions receive the love and attention they deserve.

About: Hi! I'm Shannon, and caring for both people and animals has been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember.

Growing up around animals, I developed a deep love for them, and it's something I carry with me today. I'm comfortable caring for all types of dogs, cats and even fish, and I have experience administering medication, ensuring your pets get the proper care they need. I offer flexible availability, including overnight stays, and am always happy to tailor to your pets needs and routines. Whether it's playtime, walks, or just keeping your pet company while you're away, you can count on me for dependable and loving care. I look forward to meeting your furry (or scaly) family members and giving you peace of mind while you're gone!

Melissa E.
“I can honestly say that not even the Irwin family loves dogs as much as Melissa does. I have known her for over 11 years and every animal she has taken in has been given the best life, the most love, and they get her undivided attention when she is not working with me. She is attentive and caring. She is never late. I could not think of a better person to be a dog walker.”

“Wow! She will make an awesome rover. She grew up surrounded by pets, dogs, rabbits, hamsters and even some snakes. Dogs adore her, even the ones that aren’t too sociable. I think they sense the calming presence she has and her nurturing ways. She is adored by my dog, who lays his head on her lap whenever she is around. She is dependable, reliable and willing to work hard at all times. She would make an excellent addition.”


Melissa M.
“Melissa has lovingly cared for my cats and dogs for many years. She is an invaluable resource for easing separation anxiety, putting pets at ease, managing special medical needs, and just bringing them joy through an ongoing connection. She is very knowledgeable and sweet to all her furry pals - new and old. I highly recommend her as a caregiver!”
