“Suely watched my 1 year old mini golden doodle Milo for 5 days from 5/9-5/13. I was nervous to leave him for the first time since he gets scared in new places & around new people but Suely made him feel right at home. She answered all my (frequent) messages and sent pictures throughout his stay. He had the best time and was so tired when he came home from all the playing! I would 100% recommend her to anyone and will book boarding with her in the future. I can’t thank Suely enough!!”
“Sujanna was WONDERFUL! She took thoughtful care of our Toby and went above and beyond. Toby got lots of love and attention the entire time he was there. Toby will definitely be back. We highly recommend Sujanna!!!”
“Starry & Gio were very easy to communicate with (very responsive) and kept me updated on everything. They are great caretakers and my dog was very happy being with them. Thank you!”
“Our dog Happy had a great stay with Brianna. It was the first time we ever boarded our dog, so we were nervous at first, but Brianna was very welcoming and our dog warmed up to her quickly. This was our quick test to make sure our dog (and we) could handle the separation for a short period of time, as a bridge to boarding her for a longer stretch of time. Our dog passed due to Brianna's hospitality, so we are much more comfortable boarding her for a longer stay with Brianna very soon! Thanks so much, Brianna and family!”
“Julissa was awesome! She truly treated my dog like he was her own. She kept in contact with me daily with updates and pictures and videos, which I very much appreciated. She spent time with my dog, taking him for a walks, to play at the dog park, and out on adventures, which was very good for him and helped with socializing him. I recommend if you’re looking for a dog sitter or walker! I look forward to using her in the near future.”
“Darien is everything we could ask for in a dog sitter. Our dogs always have so much fun from playing in their big, clean backyard and receive a lot of love from Darien and her family. After a fun day, my dogs always end their day sleeping peacefully and comfortably. Darien also somehow magically makes my dogs even more behaved than ever, and they always come home refreshed and happy. The dogs have deemed Darien’s home as their favorite vacation destination, and will always trust Darien with my dogs any time!”
“We are so pleased with the care our dog received while staying with Laura and Daniel. They treated our dog with kindness and compassion. We are beyond grateful for your wonderful service. Thank you.”
“Digdem did a great job taking care of our pup! She sent photo updates everyday regarding her stay. We are so happy to have found a trusted home away from home for our pup. Thank you, Digdem!”
“Taylor was AMAZING! It was my first time leaving my baby so I was super anxious especially because he is primarily pee pad trained , a ball of energy and only eats cooked food ! She was SUPER understanding and flexible. Taylor kept me updated and my baby loves her ! He usually has separation anxiety but he did so well with her ! Can’t wait to book her again 10/10! Teddy and I appreciate Taylor a TON”
“Geoff and Jenny were absolutely amazing with Lady. They understood it was her first time boarding at someone's house and they were loving and nurturing to her. I received photos and videos every day. Lady seemed very happy when I went to pick her up and I already booked my next boarding with Geoff and Jenny. I can't recommend them enough ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
About: Dog lover couple who wants the occasional companionship of a good boy/girl. I’ve personally cared for large and small dogs, yellow lab/setter/Bichon Frise, And have wanted a dog of my own for awhile. Currently, being new to New Jersey and traveling 1-2 times a month for work, this plan will have to be temporarily put on hold. Lucky for those who need the occasional dog sitter/walker and myself, rover allows both parties to be happy and fulfilled. My house has a small yard, but we have multiple parks within walking distance. I have the ability to work from home when needed, but my availability for the most part will be on the weekends or nights on weekdays. I look forward to meeting as many dogs as possible! I work full-time but work remotely around 50%. Looking after a dog during my remote work days is very easy and I can accommodate most things. Any time my profile is set to available I am working from home I have a fenced in small yard and live within walking distance of multiple parks. We are accommodating of all dog sizes and mobilities. We currently watch a senior dog very frequently and are aware of senior pup needs
“Great sitter. My dog, who is usually nervous about being with strangers, just love being with Trista. I've used her at least once a month for the last 5 months, since I moved to the area and am glad I found her through Rover.”
“Jenny was great, patience, kind and communicative. She sent pictures and replied to our messages. Most importantly she was sweet to our fearful dog Tessa and made her feel safe. I would recommend her to anyone.”
“Molly was amazing! She was super communicative before and during our dog’s stay. He got plenty of exercise and play and snuggles. It was such a relief knowing he was getting such great care while we were away. I’d absolutely recommend Molly and will definitely book again in the future!”
About: I have lived with and cared for dogs my whole life. As an adult, I have my own pup who I love with every ounce of my being. I have experience working as a dog walker and a dog-sitter (both in my home, and in the clients home). You can trust that your pet will be safe with me, as I will love them as if they are my own. I'm currently working full-time 9-5, but after work hours I will be fully attentive to your dog. During the weekends I typically stay home with plenty of time for walks and cuddles. I live in an apartment complex with a lot of open grass. The area is not fenced, but I will make sure that your pup is safe. In addition, the complex has a dog park that I am happy to bring your dog to, upon request. I have my own dog, a sweet, one year old pomapoo to keep your dog company and play with. You can trust that your dog will be in good hands, with me.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Cedar Knolls
Todd was absolutely wonderful with our golden retriever and took such great care of him during the five days we were away. It was clear that he treated our pup with genuine love, kindness, and attention, which meant so much to us. Leaving your dog in someone else’s care is never easy, but Todd made the entire experience feel comfortable and stress-free. Our dog requires medication, so finding someone responsible and trustworthy is especially important to us. Todd handled everything without any issues and gave us complete confidence and peace of mind while we were away. We are incredibly grateful for the care he provided and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet like family. Thank you, Todd, for taking such great care of our boy!
Diane was absolutely amazing with our two dogs Debra and Dexter. She treated them like they were her own. She went out of her way to make sure the dogs were comfy and well taken care of. She is a true animal lover and gave me great advice on what to feed the pups. I highly recommend Diane for dog sitting.
Christina did an excellent job taking care of our Cavalier, Stefon. She sent daily picture and video updates, and made Stefon feel as part of the family. She went above and beyond, even bathing Stefon when he got dirty playing outside (or peed on himself because of his long hair). Would highly recommend her if you’re considering boarding your dog!
Michele was wonderful with our hound mix, Wendy. We were apprehensive as we had never used a pet sitter before, especially since we were going to be away for two weeks. Wendy could be a handful, but we were kept informed about her days with numerous reports and pictures. It really seemed like our Wendy had her own little vacation! We would definitely use Michele again and would recommend her to others!
Audrey was the best sitter we could’ve asked for. I got stuck on vacation due to cancelled flights for 3 extra days, and Audrey allowed me to extend my dog’s stay with her with no issue at all. When I finally picked my dog up he was very happy/comfortable and I could tell he was taken care of. I would highly recommend her service to anyone!
Riti was absolutely wonderful! She watched our girl, Lady, for a few days and it was a great experience from start to finish. Riti was super communicative leading up to and during the stay, sending tons of photos, which I really appreciated. Riti took care to follow the long list of care instructions I left with her as well. I would highly recommend Riti, and I will definitely be using her again in the near future! 💖🐶
Alka is my pup’s and my new favorite person! I am so thankful I found someone I trust to take care of my Yorkie, Clover. As the owner of a recently adopted 8 year old Yorkie with a few health issues , leaving him with someone new was stressful. Alka immediately put my mind at ease. She kept me updated with messages and pictures throughout his stay. He looked so happy, relaxed, and genuinely loved❤️. I couldn’t recommend Alka more highly.
Mike did an outstanding job caring for our two Goldendoodles while we were away. From the start, he was communicative, professional, and clearly cared about making sure our dogs were comfortable and happy. He followed their routine closely, paid attention to all of their needs, and kept us updated throughout our trip with regular messages and plenty of pictures. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. Most importantly, our dogs had an amazing time with him. It was obvious from the updates and from how happy and relaxed they were when we got home that they were well cared for and genuinely enjoyed their stay. We are incredibly grateful for the excellent care Mike provided and would not hesitate to book with him again. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and caring dog sitter.
Rex always enjoys his time Trevor, Bydette, and their kids. He loves being in a family home, getting to meet and play with a few other dogs, and get outside in their grassy yard. We feel confident while we're away that he is not only cared as an individual pup, but he is enjoyed by the family as well!

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.

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.
