“Tori was absolutely incredible! Her daily updates were the highlight of my evening. My cats loved her so much they didn’t even really care when I got home! She was able to give my cat his allergy medicine everyday which was a huge relief and my clingy boy got some cuddles everyday which I know he loved. 10/10!!”
“Adriene was AMAZING with our two dogs, Chole and Luna! She gave them such love and attention. She communicated with us while we were away. This made us feel so comfortable. We knew they girls were being well cared for. We highly recommed Adriene!”
“This was my first experience with Rover and Violeta set the bar very high. My cat has a lot of needs and Violeta did a great job meeting those needs and keeping me informed while I was away.”
“Ashley was amazing, and I couldn’t recommend her more! I had anxiety about leaving my cats (first time hiring someone through Rover—my best friend used to watch my cats for the last 12 years). We did a meet and greet prior to booking. She communicated extremely well. She also sent me like 40-60 photos of my cats daily—and made sure to photograph each cat! Something that really put my anxieties at ease. She even agreed to watch my foster kittens (they should have been gone by the time of booking but had a medical emergency). She was fantastic!! Highly recommend!”
“This was the second time Paige dropped in and kept our two kitties company while we were out of town. No problems at all and Coco and Mo would like to have Paige back again, they were that happy with the care they received. Thanks Paige, from all of us! (She really is that good!)”
“Claudia took great care of our cats while we were away and handled the insulin shots like a champ! She sent daily updates and pics and it made us so relieved to know our cats were cared for.”
“Grace was amazing, She genuinely loves animals and it felt stress free leaving our fur babies with her. She knew how to take care of them and I know they loved her too! She was constantly in touch with us giving updates and taking pictures. I appreciated it so much and will 100% book again with her”
“Lisa is a fantastic cat sitter. She dropped by to check in on our three cats while my husband and I were on vacation. She made sure our cats were well fed, emptied the litter robot when needed, and provided love and attention to the fur babies while we were away. Lisa is very responsive over text, which is so helpful. 10/10 will book again.”
“Andre was amazing with our 3 pups for the week with 2 drop ins per day. He was thorough in his updates and it was clear the pups loved him almost immediately. Will definitely use him again for any needs with our trio and would recommend him for anyone looking for help with their pets!”
“Savannah was so kind to reschedule at the last minute for us. And as usual, she was prompt on arrival. The cats are really showing interest in her and I'm feeling good about her looking after our boys.”

About: Animals are Gods among us. I agree with Ricky Gervais, that "a dog loves you more than it loves itself, and that's why I worship dogs." Honestly, this gig is a bit selfish - my sweet baby Pit Mix passed away recently & I miss her terribly. I'm certain that engaging with animals will soothe this depression. I am socially awkward with humans, but I love animals. This will be therapy, a true gift, to me. I also need to exercise more and would like to be able to afford any kind of home, some day. My family has had pets since I was in kindergarten. I volunteered with Faithful Friends in High School, through which I also fostered kittens. I have taken care of my neighbors' & friends' pets while away over the years, which I equate to a collective total of ~2 years. I take medical issues very seriously & cared for my doll when she was ill. I understand how stressful & important it is. My favorite thing about walking a dog is when the folded tops of their ears bounce up and down. I work full time until ~4:30PM, but I am usually free after. I am available for boarding on the weekends. On the days I work from home (typically Monday & Wednesday), I can also provide a walk or check in during my lunch hour (1 to 2PM). There are no other animals or children in my home; your pet will have my undivided attention. I have a large partially fenced in yard, and many walking trails nearby. I'm also happy to take care of a pet in your home, if preferred.
About: I’ve cared for small dogs my whole life — from playful puppies to sweet senior companions. Growing up in a home full of small dogs taught me to be patient, attentive, and in tune with their needs. I also help care for our big family dog, who’s a senior but still loves his walks and belly rubs. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or giving medication, I provide reliable, loving care that helps your pet feel safe, relaxed, and right at home while you're away. I have free time most evenings and can also make time in the mornings. Since I care for my own cat daily, pet care is already a natural part of my routine. I'm happy to be flexible and work pet visits into my schedule — whether it’s morning feedings, evening walks, or check-ins throughout the day, I’ll make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need. I don’t offer pet care in my own home, as I have a cat who’s a bit territorial. However, I’m more than happy to care for your pet in their own home where they feel most comfortable and secure. I always prioritize safety, follow your instructions closely, and aim to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible when it comes to walks, feeding schedules, or just spending time keeping them company.
About: I have had three dogs for the past 4 years and I have lots of experience taking care of other people’s dogs. I have most experience with small and medium size dogs. I am currently a student working part time so I have a lot of time to take care your pet and give them the attention they need. I have three small dogs of my own and a backyard that the dogs are welcome to play in. I am willing to have animals at my house or go to your home and take care of them in yours.
About: I've owned dogs and other pets my entire life. Whether it's going for walks or just making sure a friendly face is helping with day to day tasks, I am here to help. I look to be a new friend for every new fury family member. I am an artist for most of my day, but look to find the right opportunity to take care of special fury families within my area. I do not have a fenced in yard, so would be looking for right opportunities at home or walking services to meet the needs of families looking for pet care.
About: I have helped care for my family’s dogs and cats since I was a little girl, and my love of animals has grown deeper into my adulthood. I have experience training puppies basic obedience commands, and I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. I am excited for the opportunity to care for your family’s pets! I am a full-time special education teacher, so I am available and ready to play with and assist your pets in the evenings on weekdays and any time on weekends. You can count on me to create a caring, positive environment for your pet. I am comfortable and willing to provide your pet with food and water, exercise/walking, cuddles, playtime, and more! I am happy to fulfill all of your requests when it comes to caring for your pet.

Debra D.
“Debbie has three dogs of her own. The dogs love her and follow her around the house. They love when she takes them for walks, snuggles them, and dances with them.”
Lina M.
“Lina is amazing with animals. When we lived in Newark, she was the one who I trusted with my pets. I had three dogs and a cat that she would take care of while we went away. She is loyal, reliable, and just an all-around wonderful person. My pets absolutely adored her. I am also on Rover and she is one of the best on there. If you’re in need of a pet sitter., I would highly recommend her. If she ever moves to Middletown, she’ll be the first one I call.”
Natalie H.
“Natalie is great with pets! Over the years she has watched my cat many times and always takes great care of him! She’s responsible and responsive and will show your pet lots of love!”
