About: I have several years of tending to dogs and cats, (as well as some birds) of all ages, sizes and temperaments. I’m comfortable handling potentially difficult dogs and cats, regardless of age and/or disabilities. I have also worked at Morris Animal Inn and currently work at a vet clinic while I prepare to go to vet school. I have a cat of my own, Forrest who I love very dearly. I can also administer medications orally, topically, and subcutaneously. I can monitor all bathroom trips for stool and urine output, give baths, clips nails, or clean out ears if needed. I also take the BEST pictures of pets and can give you updates whenever you’d like :) At the moment, I am currently working full time at a vet clinic, but most weekends I am off or get out early. Im currently available most Friday afternoons to Sundays nights as well as most Tuesdays. Im also flexible to work other days circumstantially. I have a formerly feral cat at home who is now an indoor-only cat that I adopted from my current job. I feed him twice daily as well as clean his litter box morning’s and evenings. He is up to date on all of his exams and shots, and is also on a hydrolyzed diet since he has some food allergies. Additionally I make sure to keep his nails short since he loves to make biscuits on my face :)
“Angelica is amazing! This is my first time with Rover and I will always book ahead and use her. I have a rescue dog Micky that is not friendly to most people and needs to be cared for from our home From the first Micky really liked her and was well taken care of. Angelica took severe photos per day and texted my husband and I about how Micky was doing. We look forward to future travel knowing our dogs are in good hands!”
“Ethan was great! Called ahead of time to make sure it was a good fit. When he got here, our dog took to him right away. He was communicative and shared pictures with us afterward. We felt a lot better on our trip knowing our dog was in good hands!”
“Lauren took great care of our cat and dog while we were away. She was very communicative and sent pictures showing our pets at ease. She made sure that our flight landed safely before leaving and we came home to a clean house. The next time we need to go away, we will definitely reach out to book her again.”
“Amazing care! We got so many pictures and a few videos throughout the 11 days and Hero was well taken care of. He has a habit of eating things he shouldn't and there was only one minor incident that we were told of right away (and thankfully hasn't caused any issues). We're looking forward to booking them again!”
“We were in desperate need of someone we could trust to watch our anxious rescue pup, Piper, during our wedding weekend. Lana was extremely patient with both Piper, and my husband and I, even agreeing to meet us several times before the stay to get us all comfortable. She sent numerous pictures and updates, which calmed our nerves so we could fully enjoy our wedding. Thank you Lana for taking great care of Piper, we will definitely be contacting her again if we ever need someone to dog sit Piper in the future.”
“Ryan was prompt, courteous and took great care of our dog Duke while we visited family out of state for a weekend. Duke immediately loved him and we felt at ease leaving him in Ryan’s care. We highly recommend Ryan and are looking forward to booking him again in the future!”
“Wonderful experience with Liam! He stayed with our dog for 4 days/3 nights. Sent lots of pictures and reached out when he had questions. When we returned home everything was perfect and our dog was happy and healthy. Will be using him again for our next trip!”
“Kim was a lifesaver! We needed a sitter last minute for our pups as we were traveling to Italy. She wrote down notes for each of the puppies during the house visit and was confident the care she would provide them. She was attentive to their and our needs. She kept us informed throughout our trip and was able to understand their personalities. The pups gravitated towards her and felt comfortable. I would definitely reach out to her again!”
About: I grew up with dogs that were part of my family, which nurtured my love for animals. As I grew older, I took care of my friends' and family's pets, gaining valuable experience. I believe that pets are wonderful companions, and I am committed to caring for them with the attention they deserve. I understand the unique needs and affection that our furry friends require. I’m available to start pet care on Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday afternoons at 2 pm , and I can accommodate daily care as needed. I lovingly ensure they are fed on schedule, provide plenty of playtime and exercise to keep their spirits high, maintain a clean and comfortable environment through grooming and litter box care, watch over their health with a gentle eye, and offer companionship to make them feel cherished and secure.
“Linda was wonderful to work with and took amazing care of our home, 3 dogs and kitten. She was easy to communicate with. Linda was so sweet and took extra time and had great patience with our grumpy older dachshund. 5 stars!!!”
“Morgan: has our complete trust to care for our dog Maddy and cat Charley. She is a good communicator, is a person who cares for pets and treats them like her own. Morgan is poised and responsible and someone we are comfortable leaving in charge of our home. She has watched our pets periodically for several years and does the little things to make them comfortable when we are away. Our dog Maddy knows her name and gets excited when we tell her Morgan is coming by! Without hesitation we can recommend Morgan.”
About: I’ve been an animal lover since I was a kid. Animals are a passion of mine, as well as traveling, music and photography. The slogan Eat, Play, Love is a spin off of my favorite Eat, Pray, Love. I grew up with dogs, cats and bunnies. I loved each & every one of them. When I got older I turned my passion into a form of income. I’m a former kennel-hand at veterinary hospitals. I’m also a former Pet Car Technician at K9 Resorts Luxury Dog Hotel of Roxbury. I’ve been house/ pet sitting for years now but just as a side job & usually by word of mouth. Now I’ve turned it into a full-time business. I’ve dealt with breeds ranging from golden retrievers and labs to rottweilers and pitbulls to chihuahuas and french bulldogs. I believe I am fully capable to properly and lovingly take care of your furry friend(s) ! Currently, this is my full-time job. I may pick up a serving job on weekend nights but for now, I have open availability & I’m really flexible. I care for your furry friends with lots of love. I like to go for walks so I am willing and able to take your pet with me!
About: I’ve taken care of animals in all shapes and sizes! I’ve always loved taking care of my family and friends’ animals (despite feeling like I’m cheating on my Portuguese water dog at home). If you need a reliable caretaker, I’m always willing to help! I’m currently working part-time so I have lots of free time on my hands! Weekends are typically difficult for me with another job but I’m available any day during the week. Mondays and Wednesdays after 3pm work best for me and any times on Tuesdays Thursdays and early Fridays. I prefer taking care of pets at the clients home as I have pets of my own at my house. I love long walks and will be very accommodating to what the client prefers!
“Ryan was wonderful with both my dogs! He took great care of them, which made our family vacation completely stress-free. I would highly recommend Ryan to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”

“Nickie did great with Freida, had patience wiht her. Freida does take a little while to warm up, by the end of the visit Freida was hanging out with Nickie.”
Raechel P.
“Raechel is one of the nicest, sweetest, caring, hardworking, honest, reliable, and all around wonderful people I have ever known. Her LOVE for animals started at a very young age. We were unable to have pets when she was younger, so she used to walk our neighbors’ dogs and spend hours playing with them as well. She also read to dogs at our local library through a program called "Paws For Reading", which allowed her to further interact with animals (especially dogs). She did eventually get a beta fish and was very excited to finally have a pet that she could love and care for. Growing up, Raechel’s LOVE for animals only increased. Once she visited a stable with a friend and while she was interacting with the horses, all of the dogs there flocked to Raechel and surrounded her; each patiently waiting for his/her turn to get hugs and rubs. Raechel has her degree in agriculture and is looking forward to obtaining her veterinary degree as well. If you love your pet (family member) and believe they deserve the best love and care you can provide, your obvious choice is future vet and AMAZING person, Raechel! p.s.(She has also adopted a very precocious and special tuxedo kitty by the name of Forrest)”

Sheree H.
“Sheree graciously offered to care for my beloved pet, recognizing the difficulties I had previously faced when leaving my furry friend in a dog hotel during my absence. Upon learning of my situation, she went the extra mile and selflessly volunteered to watch over my pet at no cost. I provided her with detailed instructions, particularly regarding the administration of medication and the use of medicated shampoo during bath time. Sheree's compassion shines through in her interactions with my dog - she is both nurturing and playful, resulting in my dog wagging her tail joyfully whenever she sees Sheree. Moreover, Sheree maintains open lines of communication, regularly calling me to provide updates on my dog's well-being.”

Bernardsville pet parents share their Rover experiences
Meghan was so sweet to my separation anxiety pom while we were at a wedding, staying in a hotel. The night before she had cried for 4 hours while we were at the rehearsal dinner and the hotel sent us a note that told us if it started again they'd require removal of our pup. So we hopped on Rover and asked Meghan to step in with just hours before she'd need to come. She saved us! And with Meghan our pup felt so at ease, she was quiet and played with with her toys (thanks for sending video! It made my husband feel okay to relax at the wedding). Yay!
