“Maxie enjoyed the time he spent at Patricia’s house. He got to play, cuddle and be happy self. I got daily updates on his stay. Overall I’d def recommend Patricia’s service”

“Grace is amazing, professional, and took very good care of my 14 year old lab. She went above and beyond our expectations to ensure my dog felt comfortable! The only downside was or dog didn’t want to leave her! 🩷”

“Brianna was amazing with my dog! She took such great care of her and even went the extra mile by putting a cute bandana on her and making her smell so good with perfume! I honestly thought she had gotten groomed when I picked her up! 😂💕 Such a sweet touch and you can tell she really cares. I would definitely book with Brianna again and highly recommend her!”

“Gabby, Dylan & family are amazing! This was my first experience on Rover and it was great! Gabby communicated with me the entire time, sending pics of Chippy in various stages of cuddles. Chipotle was cuddled and loved up his entire stay! I would most definitely reccomend Gabby & Dylan, and I will absolutely have them sit Chipotle in the future. No words to say how grateful I am to have a place I know my floof is safe and happy.”

“Hollie and her husband cared for Rainey like their own. They kept to her routine, gave her medicines when needed, and made sure Rainey got plenty of exercise and playtime. They sent many updates every day. I was very comfortable leaving Rainey with them for the first time (for two weeks), she warmed up to them very quickly. Thank you both!”

“Ziwei was wonderful! She sent us photos of Frances every day and made sure not just that Frances’s needs were met but that she got ample attention, exercise, and play time too! I could not recommend Ziwei enough for dog sitting needs!”

“Kayla kept in touch and never missed a day without photo update. Really loved the way she communicates from day 1 till the very last day. You'll never have to worry about anything with her. My Loki stayed with her for 22 days. She is an amazing person and definitely will book again. Thank you Kayla for taking good care of my Loki he already misses your 2 lovely dogs.”

“I’ve never used Rover before and was nervous. I have to boarding places just to see what was out there. Jonathan has been more than amazing . I’m so glad to know I have someone to watch my dog. We had constant updates of her and pictures with his family. They treated kiwi as if she were their own .”


“So incredibly grateful to have found Meghan and Jason. We had a meet up prior to our booking dates and felt more than comfortable to have them take care of our baby Armin. A big plus is that they have one of the best dog parks their community, it’s huge! We received plenty of videos and pictures daily. Armin was even laying upside down in their care, which he only does when he’s extremely comfortable and we have yet to see that with any prior rover experiences. Armin easily gets diarrhea if he has any changes to his food or treats but Meghan and Jason did great with his regimen. We got him back with healthy poops lol. They even accommodated to drop him off at the end of our booking which we desperately needed. I can’t say enough good things about them and am excited to have found a future pet sitter with zero worries 🙂”

“Yiqi is the best dog sitter in this world! She had my puppy rebel for 5maybe 6 days and he came back potty trained and a totally new puppy. I recommend her and we will be choosing her as long as she is available. She sent pictures and videos daily. Walked him 3xs a day and kept him on his normal meal schedule. When we arrived she had natural dog treats and was very welcoming. This was rebels first time staying away from home and i genuinely can say he had an amazing job. Thank you Yiqi for taking care of rebs and giving him the love he deserves. 💛”

“Nicolle and Ronaldo were amazing! I can’t recommend them enough! I truly felt like my doggo was on his own vacation full of cuddles, play time, and safe socializing. Nicolle and Ronaldo provided updates daily that put my mind at ease. They are extremely caring, accommodating, communicative, and kind hearted dog people who truly understand the anxiety and worry that comes with traveling without your fur baby. They have extensive knowledge of proper dog care and treat your pup like their own. If you want your pet to have a home away from home with the absolute best care, I recommend them every day of the week! Incredible experience! :)”

“Absolutely wonderful sitter! What meant the most to me was being able to relax while I was away and know that my dog was in good hands. I really appreciated the communication and updates, and I never once felt like I had to worry. When I came back, my dog was happy and relaxed, which told me everything I needed to know. I’m so thankful for her and would absolutely have her sit for my dog again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable.”

“Klainer was amazing with my tiny dog Moqui! She was so responsive, sent me so many updates and photos and was so kind. I have a very anxious dog and Klainer made sure to make her feel at home. Thank you so much!”

“Deanna took such good care of my baby girl! I loved my daily updates and felt so much peace knowing she was in such great hands! Highly recommend and will definitely utilize her services again!”

“Vera was great! She provided updates and photos during Hunter’s stay. It really helped that her dog Gryff was around to keep Hunter company as well. We’ll definitely be using Vera again in the future :)”

“I was honestly very nervous about leaving my dog with someone for the first time in 7 years — I think I had more separation anxiety than he did! 😂 But Isabelle made the whole experience incredibly easy and completely worry-free. She sent me daily updates and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was obvious very quickly that my dog absolutely loved her — and dogs are usually pretty good judges of character! Isabelle clearly knows dogs, understands their behavior, and knows exactly how to handle and care for them. By the end of the stay, I wasn’t sure if my dog was going to be happy to see me or ask if he could stay with Isabelle a few more days. 😂 I would absolutely trust Isabelle with my dog again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and experienced dog sitter. Five stars without hesitation! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“Could not recommend Sanaz enough, she is communicative, charismatic and reasonably flexible about drop off and pick up. We have a big, high energy dog and he came home a tired boy!”

About: Hi! I’ve grown up around dogs and have always had a love for animals. I’m caring, responsible, and excited to give your pup plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your dog with someone you trust, and I’ll treat your pet like my own while they’re in my care! Currently in school for my PhD so I have a lot of time when I’m home studying or doing work! If I do leave the house it’s only for a few hours at a time! I currently have no pets which can allow me to spend 1:1 time with your furry friends. They can stay at my house or I can come to yours whatever is most convenient!

“Best ever! From the second they met my pups they were so sweet and kind to them. She sent videos and pics and you could tell they were comfortable and loved on the whole week! I could not recommend her and her fiancée more! Will definitely be rebooking!!!!!!!”


“Our dogs stay with Stuart and Nathalie was great! So much better and reasonable than a kennel. They really are dog lovers which made me so much more comfortable leaving our fur babies in their care. Her backyard is converted to a little dog park for the dogs. Communication was wonderful. Received pics via text. Will use them again without a doubt!”

Vernisha was absolutely amazing and accommodating. She took my booking very last minute as I had an unexpected trip. Thank you so much for making everything convenient for me and keeping me updated every day you had my pup. My dog means the absolute world to me so also thank you for taking care of him. Will definitely use your services again in the future.

This is my second time availing Katie’s services, and as a first-time cat owner, I was initially a little apprehensive about using Rover. However, Katie’s outstanding service has completely put my mind at ease. Thank you so much, Katie, for all your help, for sharing pictures of my kitten every day, and for your prompt responses to all my questions while we were away! It gave us such peace of mind knowing our little one was in such great hands. ❤️ Thank you again, Katie! We’ll definitely see you soon! 🐾

Our sitter was absolutely amazing! We had so much unexpected chaos during our trip from our original sitter canceling, to our flight being rerouted to Cleveland because of a storm. Through all of it, she was incredibly patient, understanding, and flexible. She made a very stressful situation so much easier for us by taking such great care of our dog, Lola. She kept us updated with messages and pictures, which gave us peace of mind knowing Lola was happy and well cared for. We are so grateful for her kindness, patience, and understanding throughout everything that happened. She truly went above and beyond, and we would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their fur baby! ❤️🐾

Jennifer is amazing! Our bay girl, Coco, absolutely loves her and her dogs. She gets so excited for doggy daycare and overnight stays when we go away on vacation. Jennifer truly goes above and beyond and takes such incredible care of her while we’re gone. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing Coco is happy, loved, and in great hands. We’re so thankful we found her — and Coco is too!

Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
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.

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NJ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
