“Stephanie is great! Our dog was there for 4-5 days and looked very relaxed, happy, and content. Stephanie gave daily updates, photos, and a detailed sheet on our dog’s activity. Would recommend, Stephanie is very caring!”
“Gio and Starry were absolutely incredible! This was our first time using Rover and they made the entire experience feel so easy, comfortable, and reassuring. They sent so many photos and thoughtful updates, which meant the world to me. I could truly see how loved and cared for Phoenix was the whole time.”
About: I've been training (my own) and taking care of dogs for most of my life. From puppies to large/giant breeds, and even seniors — I can handle them all. I have been working from home for the last 12 years and have a very flexible schedule. This makes it easy for me to be available at any time. I have a Great Dane at home. I'm open to caring for you pets here, provided they get along. In terms of care in your home — I think it's pretty simple. I follow you're routine.
“Lydia was great with Chloe! We are so glad we found her. Her dog, Casey, was so sweet and Chloe got along well with him. She sent us pictures and updates on how our dog was doing which was great. We could tell Chloe was having fun and that she really liked Lydia. We will defineatly be coming back when we go on vacation. Thank you!! ”
“Rex always enjoys his time Trevor, Bydette, and their kids. He loves being in a family home, getting to meet and play with a few other dogs, and get outside in their grassy yard. We feel confident while we're away that he is not only cared as an individual pup, but he is enjoyed by the family as well!”
“We are very happy with the care our anxious 9 year old received. There were regular updates throughout his stay over a weekend. He did not even need his occasional anxiety medication that helps him settle down. He came back home calm and tired without any signs of stress. We would certainly drop him off at Sriram and Rekha's again.”
“Vanessa was great to my baby Fiona! She sent me pictures/videos every day, but the best of all was to see how the entire family "adopted" her into their lives. When I picked Fiona back she was healthy and super happy!!! Vanessa is a great sitter!”
“Shannon was great at communicating and keeping us updated. We were running behind on drop off and did an early pick up and she was very flexible with our change in schedules. Thank you for all your help!”

“Natalia was great with my Cocoa. She treated her like her own, and she sent us tons of lovely pictures. She’s a great sitter and loves being around animals which makes leaving a little easier.”
“Dilan was the best dog sitter I have ever hired. My dog was well taken care of. She exercised her twice a day and sent me videos and pictures while I was away. My dog appeared to be very happy…which made me very happy. I couldn’t be more pleased with the level of care Dilan provided for my baby! Thank you!”
“I can’t thank Karina enough for watching my anxious girls on such short notice. They’d never stayed with anyone before, so I was really worried—especially about my most nervous one. But Karina’s patience and care won her over completely! My dad picked them up to happy, relaxed doggies and total peace of mind.”
“Leticia was so kind, communicative, and caring for my senior shorkie Bella. I was updated daily with how she was doing with pictures. I really appreciated all the updates which kept my mind at ease. Highly recommend !”
“Celeste was amazing to work with! I left on a trip and had no one to watch my dog Mika so I had Celeste take care of her for 1 week. Celeste was genuinely excited to watch Mika and she made sure to give lots of attention and affection. She created a comfortable environment and Mika quickly got used to staying in a different house. I received daily updates and photos and was 100% confident that Mika was in the right hands. 10/10 experience and I would not hesitate to leave Mika with Celeste again in the future.”
“Todd is highly responsible and provided excellent care for my dog, offering regular updates and pictures, and demonstrating prompt responsiveness in communication. Definitely, I recommend him to other pet owners.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Basking Ridge
Karina was fantastic! She took great care of our dog Cooper, showing him a lot of love and attention. As did her kids. She was very responsive to us, and sent us updates every day along with multiple pictures. We plan to use her again in the future, and would highly recommend her.
Vanessa aand Jeremy were wonderful hosts to Bennie and Dolly. They sent me pics every day to let me know how "the kids" were doing. I was confident that the kitties were well taken care of. I would recommend them to anyone who needs a safe, loving place for their pets to stay any time. Thanks

Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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.
