“I was so nervous to drop off my newly rescued small Chiweenie and Geoff and Jenny did such a good job caring for him with so much love. Super friendly and accommodating. I can’t wait for him to go back to another doggy daycare day!”

About: I spent the past 4 years running a successful dog-watching business in NYC with my partner. We have since relocated to Northern NJ and intend to provide the same high quality services for pets here. I grew up with animals - dogs, rabbits, birds, mice, turtles and fish. I would’ve had cats too if members of my family weren’t so allergic. As a teen I volunteered with friends at our local animal shelter and chose to work with the cat population because most of the volunteers wanted to walk the dogs. Most recently I trained my own dog - starting from when she was 6 weeks old. I used a combination of training techniques (including crate training) to successfully potty-train her, teach her to walk on a leash and eventually teach her to hike and run together off-leash. My dog is now 3 years old and I bring her to my grandmother’s assisted living facility. She interacts with and plays appropriately with other dogs, pets, adults and children of all ages. She is a secure dog and adaptable to any environment. I believe my dog’s calm and friendly demeanor is a direct reflection of my skills. I’m prepared to handle dogs across the spectrum of sizes and energy levels. I live close to many beautiful parks and trails, some with dedicated areas for dog-play. I will closely follow any instructions you have for feeding, exercising, sleeping and socializing your precious pet. I work part-time from home and set my own schedule so I am able to dedicate the appropriate time and attention to your pet easily. I will treat your pet like part of my family if they stay with me. I have a very calming presence that animals seem to react really well too. I am happy to watch your pet at your place if that works best. I provide an engaging, safe environment no matter the location.

“We’ve greatly appreciated Andrea’s flexibility, kindness and great communication. Shelley has clearly enjoyed the care as well - after day one, she hustled straight to the door for drop-off and can hardly wait to get inside to start her care. Andrea also very kindly gifted Shelley toys that she loved to bits (literally). This sitter is pet and pet parent recommended.”

“Tracy came through in a pinch for us and watched our two dogs Maisie and Louie last minute on Christmas Day. From the moment we got to their place, we were put at ease - they’re clearly dog professionals and made us feel totally comfortable leaving our pups. Even our nervous dog Louie immediately took to them. They sent lots of updates and pictures and made our holiday stress free. Highly recommend!”

“Raya and her fur baby Bella were excellent for my fur baby Cheddar. Raya was responsive, helpful and kept me informed. Cheddar is a high energy dog and Bella amd Cheddar had a great time. Raya also took care of us in a pinch when we needed daycare for Cheddar. I would definitely hire her again. Thanks Raya and Bella so much!!”

“First time with Katherine and she was so sweet and kind with my dog! Coco Limón was only there for a couple hours but I got plenty of pictures and updates. Her and her son snuggled and played with her and she was treated very well. Thank you !!”
“David was very accommodating and took great care of Kyrie during the day. He sent photos and gave us mini updates throughout. He also gave her long walks multiple times which I know Kyrie loved. We would reach out to David again in the future. Thank you so much!!”

“It is our first time sent bubble to day care. Darien is super responsive. Highly recommend!! sent lots of pictures and updates to ensure we knew bubble was doing good all the time! Thank you so much for taking care of Bubble!”

About: *Available for summer 2026!* I have a 10 year dog of my own, who I administer medicine to regularly. I have dog sat regularly every summer since I was 18. I am always free Monday, Wednesday and Friday . Other days are dependent on how far ahead in advance you apply. I am virtually in college so it's just about making things work. I have a fenced yard and I also live close to a dog park. I'm able to administer medicine. I always keep an eye on the dogs and make sure they don't feel too homesick.
About: My parents were animal lovers, so I grew up with dogs in my household, and a love of animals in general. Therefore caring for big or small dogs is very natural and comforting. I am a retired senior in pursuit of starting another career online, so I’m home everyday. Except for Sunday morning between 9:30-1pm. So I’m available daily. I live alone, without any other animals present, so that I can provide one-on-one attention. You can trust that your pet will be loved and well cared for.
About: EXPERIENCED IN PUPPY TRAINING AVAILABLE FOR OVERNIGHT STAYS & HOME-CARE OPEN TO DIFFERENT PAYMENT METHODS INSPIRING TO BE A CERTIFIED DOG-TRAINER Lover of all breeds, ages, and size! Aspiring to be a pet trainer while attending college part-time! Beyond my own experience as a dog parent up to their senior years, it is incredible that the people behind their pets could never stop learning new tricks. Through collaborating with other pet parents, I further understood the groundwork besides the basic routine(s) for their pets to have lifelong health, and safety. Whether it would be a dog or a cat, taking care of a loved one can be essential to the workings of a happy household—something I consider to be one of the best jobs I'd be happy to take! Looking to work part-time for pet-sitting, and dog-walking! Consider myself flexible, balancing my time at college, and other professional endeavors. I also can do house-sitting on holidays. Currently available on Monday afternoons, Tuesday mornings, Wednesday (all-day), Thursday (all-day), Friday afternoons, and weekends (all-day) for drop-in visits. I basically make time for other pets besides my own as part of my daily routine. I consider dog-walking as cardio before a hefty workout. Not only that, but I always pack an extra travel bag ahead of house-sitting offers. My life is practically nothing without precious animals to bond with along with their families.

“Thank you Kat. My puppy Bernie and I had a great experience meeting you. I did daycare and she was amazing to have watching my puppy. I know he had a good time. Highly recommend”

“Andrew is top rated for a reason! Totally worth the cost. He’s got a great space perfect for a dog to free roam and family all committed to the care of your little one. Professional, accommodating, attentive, and great with updates / communication. New to the area and was nervous leaving my little one with a new care giver for an extended period for work travel. Andrew gave me tons of peace of mind. Definitely recommend!”

Brookdale dog parents share their Rover experiences
Cinthia was amazing with Koda. She was very communicative and provided regular updates throughout the day. I felt very comfortable with her watching my dog and knowing he was in good hands. Would totally recommend leveraging cinthia if you have the opportunity.

Danny (and Rebecca) showed much patience when I called. He answered my questions, even if I repeated (I'm older and sometimes forget). He reassured me when I asked what his daily dog schedule is When I made inquiry with concern about Meshy's foibles, he was direct, informative. He did not personalize as a question of his ability, but understood questions as a concern about dog behavior. When we setup MEET & GREET, he introduced dogs, 1 at a time, giving Meshy and his dogs, a chance to meet without being overwhelmed. He remained approachable, but let Meshy approach him in his own time. I found Danny to be alert and perceptive to dogs, patient with my concerns as 'dog parent'. I would definitely return for care for Meshy.
I can’t say enough good things about Marcy’s Dog Daycare! From the moment I dropped my dog off for his first visit, I knew he was in great hands. Marcy is incredibly kind, professional, and has such a deep love for animals—it’s clear she’s not just doing this as a business, but because she genuinely cares about the dogs in her care. Not only did Koda have a blast playing with other dogs, but he came home exhausted (in the best way possible!) and with a huge smile on his face. I could tell he had been well taken care of and treated like part of the family. I would highly recommend Marcy’s Dog Daycare to anyone looking for a safe, loving, and reliable place to leave their pet. It’s such a relief to know that my dog is not only cared for but actually enjoys his time there. I will definitely be bringing Koda back!

Sam came thru for us even though it was such short notice. She kept updating me with pics of Rigby and she even gave her little snacks. Of course she asked for permission first. Rigby came home happy and tired. I would definitely use Sam again. You’re a rockstar Sam! Thank you for all the kindness you showed our pup 🐶 🙏🏼💜
