About: I have worked at a dog daycare for 3 years and I am a Karen Pryor Academy Certified Training Professional. I have a lot of experience working with all types and sizes of dogs including reactive, fearful, and overly excited dogs, puppies, and those who need training! I put my training practices into every walk to make sure the dog is safe and doing the best they can! I love walking, running, playing ball or tug with dogs, training, and creating a lot of enrichment activities to tire out their brains! I do have a day job, but I tend to be free in the mornings or afternoons! I have a very active lifestyle so your dog will get all the activities they need! I am very knowledgeable with all types of harnesses, collars, and leashes so I will make sure your dog is fitted properly and safe! Also, I have a lot of experience with feeding dogs and cleaning up after them, so I can make sure your home is spotless! Daily enrichment activities and training is something I incorporate in every service no matter the dog!

I am currently working part time at a restaurant so i have plenty of time to care and play with some pets!! I am rarely unavailable! I will make sure they have enough food and water at all times and I will make sure that they feel loved and cared for!
“I discovered I had no one to watch my to somewhat challenging dogs the night before a work event. Jake was professional, offered to have a quick meet and greet before the next day's visit, and showed up on time for both visits. I added a laundry list of concerns to my dog's profile. Luckily my dog loved Jake within 5 minutes of meeting him. So much so, that when my husband returned early and accidentally let Xara escape from the house, it was Jake my dog allowed herself to be caught by. She doesn't allow anyone but her besties to get near her when she is loose.”
“This is our 2nd time using Jonathan. We had a vet emergency 1 hr before our flight, and he came to the vet office, picked up meds, and administered them while we were away. Incredibly kind and responsible person!”
“She's a very trustworthy and responsible person. She's always communicating with photos and messages, and that makes me feel very confident that my baby is okay. I highly recommend her.”
“Liv was absolutely fantastic with my big boy! He cried at windows when she left and he hasn't done that with anyone but me. She actually played with him when she was over and he was SO happy and relaxed after she left. I will most definitely be using her again when I need pet care again!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and reliable pet caregiver with years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. Before fostering cats, I fostered dogs and I even had two “foster fails!” My two sweet pitties stole my heart and became permanent members of my family. Over the years, I’ve fostered numerous cats and kittens, including seniors, shy cats, and young babies. Fostering has taught me that every pet is unique, and I love taking the time to build trust, help them feel safe, and provide care that fits their individual personality and needs. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm companion while you’re away, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and patience. I’m also comfortable giving basic medications when needed, but my greatest strength is creating a safe, comfortable environment where pets can relax and be themselves. My professional background has strengthened my patience, reliability, and attention to detail, and I bring those qualities to every visit. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I’ll always treat them like they’re part of my own family. You can also count on regular photo and video updates, so you’ll always know your furry baby is happy and well cared for! I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! I currently work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m able to provide dependable, attentive care while keeping your pet’s schedule consistent. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I take the time to learn their routine, respect their personality, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. Whether in my home or yours, I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, fresh food and water, and lots of love. I also keep pet parents updated with photos and messages so they know their furry family member is happy and well cared for.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Bernardsville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Bernardsville choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Bernardsville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
