“Paola did a great job. She did everything that was requested to look after my cat, Trixie. Trixie would be fine either way so this was more about me and my neuroses. Paola showed up as scheduled to feed and water Trixie. She also sent pics so I could see how Trixie was doing. This is definitely the way to go and Paola was the right choice. Paola was respectful of my home and cat. With Paola’s help, I was able to enjoy my weekend away.”

About: I've had a dog in my home since I was 3 years old so I have plenty of experience and knowledge of how to properly care for them. I also have practice from walking my friends and neighbors dogs and cat sitting. I'm currently home from college for summer break so I have plenty of flexible time to care for your pets! I don't go back until September and I am available everyday of the week. I love to play with them, cuddle them, and make them happy. To care for them I feed them and walk them and make sure they are comfortable.
“Svetlana was fantastic with our little Shihtzu baby girl. She sent me photos and updates while she was there. Sweetie seemed very happy to hang out with her. Thank you Svetlana!”
About: Hi there! I'm a lifelong dog enthusiast, having grown up with my adorable Schnauzer, Candy, and my lively Siberian Husky, Jody. Right now, I can't have pets of my own, but I'm as passionate as ever about spending time with dogs. I've celebrated countless special moments with Candy and gone on endless adventures with Jody, which taught me so much about what it takes to keep a dog happy and healthy. I might be new to professional dog sitting since I have just volunteered in shelters for about one year, but I've got a natural knack for making furry friends feel loved and secure when their humans are away. I'm really looking forward to meeting your dog and making sure we have a ton of fun together, just like I did with my own pups! During the weekdays, I teach in high school from 7:30 AM to 5:00 PM, but I'm available for evening walks and potty breaks right after school. I understand the importance of sticking to a routine, so I can ensure your dog gets the evening exercise and attention they need during the week. On weekends, my schedule is completely open, allowing me to provide full-time care filled with love, play, and all the cuddles your pets can handle! Whether it's weekday evenings or any time over the weekend, I'm dedicated to fitting into your pet's routine, ensuring they feel happy and cared for every day. I prioritize maintaining their routine to ensure comfort. I provide regular updates, manage feeding, walking, and playtime, and ensure the home remains secure and tidy.
“Ryan is great! Prompt communication, sends great notes while we are away, does an awesome job. Our cat is always happy to see him.”
“Jackie was wonderful- she took the best care of our dog, Leo! She was flexible with the schedule and very prompt and thorough with her updates. We felt super comfortable leaving Leo in her care while we went on vacation. We would definitely book with her again:)”
“Emily is wonderful with our dogs! She’s the best! So reliable and trustworthy!”
“Linda is AMAZING! I was very nervous about leaving our cat alone for the weekend and the care and time she spends with our spunky little guy immediately eased my mind. We appreciate Linda’s care of little Arlo and will continue to ask her to watch him when we are out of town!”
About: I have been around dogs all of my life and have experience with dogs of many different breeds and age ranges. Coming from previous experience at a dog boarding facility, I am trained in feeding, handling, and medicating dogs and have worked with dogs of various levels of aggression. I am currently unemployed, so I can be on-call 24 hours for the days that I am available. I have my own dog that I take care of, but I can usually fit your pet into my routine! I currently cannot board dogs since my apartment is not big enough to house more than one dog. When caring for dogs, I make sure to give them the attention and space they require. Please instruct me or provide me with details on how you want your dog to be cared for (and also if your dog has any allergies, I love to give treats!!!)
“Amy took great care of our dogs, and I would not hesitate to book with her again! She is very responsible and responsive, and clearly a dog person.”
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!
About: I am a responsible, active and caring dog lover. I live in beautiful Basking Ridge with my wife and our two male Golden’s, Dunkin and Blue. Walks will always be fun, safe, and exciting. My wife and I are both fun, energetic, young professionals who love animals, I work from home full time and decided to restart my Rover account to get out of the house more and help out other dog owners! I grew up with a dog who was a diabetic, had a heart murmur and arthritis so I have a lot of experience giving medication of any type including insulin with a syringe. Currently, my family has a dog named Baxter who lives back in NJ with my parents. I worked from home when he was a puppy so I have experience with training and a lot of messy cleanups! I will do everything to make sure your pup is comfortable and happy in my home. Air conditioning will be on all day (during the summer), a lot of playtime and belly rubs. Also, you can expect daily pictures/videos to ensure you that your dog is being cared for properly (and maybe a bit spoilt!) I have a very flexible work schedule and can come and go as I please. Having had to deal with issues finding reliable dog care for our two dogs when we were both in the office, I wanted to offer my services to help other professionals or those who need a long term trustworthy and reliable dog lover! I’ve had to find last minute help in the past multiple times for our two boys and it always gives me so much anxiety. Whatever you need from me to feel comfortable before booking please just let me know.
About: I’ve had many pets growing up and I have always loved being around them! I have experience with dogs and cats from all ages, breeds and sizes. I have an open schedule, so anytime within my time frame works perfectly! During the week and weekend, anytime from 11-8 is ideal for me! I have a fenced in home, so that makes bathroom time easy. I also have experience with having dogs that have a non fenced in yard. I am a very gentle and patient person, so caring for dogs that may be high energy is no problem!

Ryan G.Star Sitter
“Ryan G. is just a really nice, caring, contentious and reliable person. He has cared for dogs for over 20 years of his life and worked at the Morris Animal inn where that was his primary task with many different types of dogs with different temperaments and different breeds. If Ryan is given the task of being a pet caregiver, he will do a great job as he is great with following a routine, and he loves animals. He has trained many dogs, walks his dog everyday several times. I would want Ryan to care for my pet if I was travelling or if I did not have the time to care for my pet because of work or health reasons.”

Her care, attention to detail, and responsible nature were evident throughout. My dogs felt safe and loved, and I was completely at ease knowing she was in charge. She’s dependable, attentive, and truly loves animals.”
