“This was my first time using the rover site and having Lucinda care for our pets while we were away - absolutely wonderful - the process and how easy it was and how terrific Lucinda was! I felt relieved to find someone so great that I could trust. I will definitely try and book Lucinda for our next trip!”
“Nadine was wonderful! She was quick to respond & flexible when I needed to adjust her visit time. Love getting the pictures & daily update. Would definitely recommend her to care for your fur babies.”
“Valerie was great. She came and took care of Cookie. We were not sure how Cookie would respond to someone new. Cookie took to her right away, Valerie even came an extra day that we asked her to with short notice. Cookie loved her. I would highly recommend Valerie to anyone who needs help with their dog and cat. She is very loving and attentive to their needs. We were also informed with pictures and any issues that occurred with Cookie. She had an accident outside of her box and Valerie cleaned it up and made sure we were aware of it. She treated Cookie like her own. Cookie loved her.”
“Nicole did a great job checking in and feeding our cats. She provided us with pictures and daily updates. I would highly recommend her. Thank you Nicole for taking care of our cats.”
“Kandyce was super communicative, on time for each check in, took a lot of great photos of our cat and was prompt and responsive when we needed updates. Truly a pleasure to have over and will keep her at the top of our choices for the future. Thank you again!!!”
“Denise was simply amazing! She took wonderful care of our three kitties and stayed for three days. The house was kept in immaculate order, sent us many pictures and updates! Will definitely use her again! Highly recommend!”
“Gianna was a super cat-sitter! She was timely and responsive to texts and really seemed to connect well with our kitten, Bubba. Gianna did everything that we asked of her (food, water, litter box, playing toys, sending a picture during her visit) and even left us some things for Bubba and a sweet note for us when we got home. If I could give her more than five stars I would. I hope to ask her back again the next time we need someone to stop in for him! Gianna was a real find!!!”
About: I don’t discriminate against any type of breed. I care for them as they are my own . There is no problem for me in giving medications, if needed. I currently work full time . They would be taken care of in the morning, if needed at lunch time . Once done my normal work day, then I would go back to them for however long was needed . In the clients home : We would play, go for walks if the dog enjoys them . I like to snuggle and sit with them, I will converse with them . I always make sure they have fresh water .
“Kristie was great with my 130 lb dog, he is anxious about new people and she came over before to meet him and got to know him, she followed all my directions about him and was very punctual and flexible with timing! I will definitely be using her in the future🥰”
About: I have grown up with pets my whole life. I truly cannot imagine living a life without a furry family member! In my lifetime, we have had a total of 6 pets, half of them being strays or rescues. One of our cats got diabetes and I had to give him insulin shots. My one dog Lexi got cancer and I had to pick her up to go out to pee as she lost control in her legs (she was a large golden doodle). Our one cat Hoodie was a feral kitten that we found hiding in the hood of my mom’s car. We were able to domesticate her and now she’s a fat happy house cat. Overall I have experience with all ages, including seniors, and strays. I currently work at Rowan University, working their summer theatre camp. I have a lot of availability as that is only in the mornings/afternoons and my weekends are free. I care with pets with love and respect. I treat them as part of the family rather than a pet. I am very responsible as I work with kids on the daily. I exude patience, kindness, and understanding and lead my work with this always in mind.
About: I have had a family pet (cats, dogs, fish) my whole life and have pet sit for friends and family as well! I also am a foster for a local cat adoption non profit. I work from home, and have the ability to keep your furry family company throughout the day and ensure frequent breaks to go for walks and get outside as needed. We have a big fenced backyard that is perfect for playing and exploring! We also live on a dead end street with sidewalks, perfect for safe and quiet walks outdoors.
“Dawn was great with my 2 big goofy shepherd mixes! She was available last minute do a meet and greet and do drop ins (let them out and feed them) during a holiday. She was accommodating to a last minute additional drop in and followed my instructions to a T for everything. I felt very comfortable with her taking care of my babies. Thanks again!”
“Kate took great care of our kitties while we were away for a long weekend. She took the time to provide updates throughout the weekend and even took the trash out for us when we didnt ask. She went above and beyond and I would definitely recommend her to others!”
“Chelsea is a godsend. She was so thorough with extra needs, and understanding of our quirky situation where two of our cats are just strays we've adopted that live outside. We'll definitely be booking her again!”
About: Hello, I am a first grade teacher on summer break. The cold and rain doesn’t scare me, I have a reliable vehicle, and love animals. I have taken care of dogs, cats, and many more all of my life. I also can give animals necessities like food, water, etc when needed. Understanding that owners can have busy lives, I want to make sure there best friends are being looked after. Rates and visits will always be consistent, as well as reliable communication between the owner and I. I hope to meet your best friend soon :) I have off in the summer time and looking for a Monday-Friday schedule with some weekend with advanced notice. I can arrive earlier morning, afternoons, and late evenings. I cannot take dogs to my personal house but will watch pets at their owners house. I have a deeper understanding of animals wants and needs as well as their owners wants and needs. I am an animal lover by heart and will treat all pets the way I treat my own.
About: Hi, I love all kinds of animals!! I will treat your dog like my own!! I currently have one puppy and he is a hairless breed so if your animal happens to be the same i’ll know how to take care of them as well!! I am kindhearted and will always have respect for you and your pets! I am pretty athletic so I love going on long walks if that’s what’s best for your pet! I also don’t mind hanging out with them for a little while after they’re done being walked. I’ve dog sat a few times before big and small dogs so I’m prepared for either or both. I really hope you choose me to take care of your dog when you need me to!! I am currently working part time at a pet hotel so I definitely love animals and I am also a full-time student. I have class Mondays and Thursdays for an hour and Tuesdays I can only walk in the afternoon, Wednesdays I have a 3 hour lab but my morning is free and after 4pm, Thursday I’m free all day after 10 am and Friday I’m free all day! So the end of the week is definitely free for me! I live in an apartment on campus so unfortunately I won’t be able to house any dogs myself unless it’s a small dog and it’s just one. If I was to go to my clients house I would make sure to leave the house exactly the way that I came in, if the dog had any accidents I would clean that up, and if I ended up using any of the dishes if I was allowed I would make sure they were all clean before I left. If the client leaves treats for the dogs I’ll definitely make sure that they give them as much as I’m allowed to. I’ll always make sure they have water which is really important and they will get more than enough time outside for their walks. also if there’s toys in the house I will definitely be engaging with the pets and playing with them!

Katie D.
“My pets are considered my “babies” and it’s important for my pet sitter to understand and treat them the same way. Katie is an amazing pet sitter who treats my cats as if they are her own. She takes the time to learn about each one’s needs and makes it a priority to spend quality time with each one. Katie doesn’t hesitate to do whatever is needed to make your pets feel cared for. She handles medicine like a pro, stays overnight if needed, keeps me updated with photos and videos, and truly loves what she does. I can’t recommend Katie enough. She has strong experience with animals, has a quiet and gentle demeanor (which my cats love), and is dedicated and reliable. When I leave my “babies” in her hands, I am confident they are in the best care possible. Katie is fabulous - I am so lucky to have her!”
