I think my dog is always just a little upset when he sees me, rather than Jennifer, walk in the door. He is always a happy boy when she stays.

I was debating on writing a review as I really don't want to share her. Lol! All kidding aside, Jennifer exceeded our expectations in every way. She kept us well informed without being intrusive, sending regular updates and adorable photos of Finley that put our minds at ease given that this was our first time using Rover. Coming back to a spotless house was an unexpected bonus, and her attention to detail even extended to caring for our plant that needed some tender caring. Jennifer's interpersonal skills are top-notch, making her a true gem in the world of pet sitters. We couldn't recommend her more highly!

Alley was with our Abby at our home for two weeks while we were on vacation. During that time we had some very strong storms which our pup doesn’t do well with. Alley was able to manage Abby‘s anxiety and was very communicative with us throughout the entire two weeks. We are very happy with the care Alley provided for Abby. In addition, Alley took care of our mail my plants and our home Alley went above and beyond to ensure our homecoming was quite pleasant to completely clean home, she even washed the bedding in the room she stayed in. Thank you Alley for your time and efforts on our behalf. We will surely call on you again!

Rosemarie came to visit us and meet Lulu before the dog sitting date, which was very nice as they got acquainted with each other. On Thanksgiving Day Rosemarie arrived early and begin bonding with Lulu right away. We weee gone for a long time. Rosemarie fed and walked with Lulu. She sent us photos and even spent time cuddling with Lulu. We would definitely recommend Rosemarie and have no reservations about using her in the future as well as recommending to others. Thank you, Rosemarie!

I currently work from home with a very flexible schedule that allows me to go on walks, have play breaks, and cuddles whenever they’re needed. I have a friendly pompoo named Chevy who can keep your pup company. I can accommodate any dogs with special needs and crate if necessary.

Kimberly did a wonderful job of watching my 2 dogs and cat in our home when we went away last weekend. My 2 chihuahuas instantly liked her which is not always the case. She is very reliable and left the house just as we left it. I would definitely recommend her and hope to use her next time we go away. Thanks Kimberly!

I grew up having all different animals in the house, so I have much experience with them, and would love to take care of other local fur friends. I currently work from home, so I’m super flexible! I am available any day of the week for drop ins, and walks. Whichever you prefer! I care for fur friends in others homes by always keeping their animals safe, fed, and loved as if their owner was there with them.

We had a fantastic experience with Micaela! We decided on a spontaneous 3-day vacation and needed someone reliable to care for our two dogs — and she absolutely delivered. Micaela covered three long 11-hour shifts and took such great care of our pups. Our dogs were happy, calm, and clearly felt safe and comfortable the entire time. She was also respectful and kind with my dad, who was home during the visits, and made sure everything ran smoothly. We came home to relaxed dogs and peace of mind — couldn’t have asked for more. Highly recommend Micaela to anyone looking for a dependable and caring sitter!

We recently had Nora stay over for our 2 dogs, Honey and Louise. She came and met us and the dogs beforehand. What a sweet young lady and our dogs warmed up to her immediately. She sent updates and pictures throughout. Honey is a nervous nelly and I was so relieved to see her sleeping on the bed with Nora, quite content. She left the place spotless. I can't say enough good things about Nora. She is the best!! <3

As a new puppy parent I was very concerned about leaving our little Cavapoo over night but Heather was a wonderful dog-sitter and once I met her I was so relieved knowing our puppy would be in capable hands. She made sure he was taken out to go potty, she played with him and she even managed to give him his pill which I couldn’t get him to take.

Brittany was awesome with our two dogs! She stayed overnight and took such great care of them. They were happy, relaxed, and clearly comfortable with her. She kept us updated and made being away so much less stressful. We came home to two very well-loved pups and everything in great shape. We’d absolutely book Brittany again and highly recommend her! 🐶🐶

Lauren was absolutely incredible while staying at our home for a few days to care for our two dogs and cat. One of our pups required daily medication, and she handled it with total professionalism and care. She kept us updated with thoughtful messages and photos, and it was clear our pets were happy, relaxed, and well-loved the entire time. We came home to a spotless house and three content animals who clearly adored her. It’s such a relief knowing we can trust someone so responsible, kind, and attentive with our pets and home. We couldn’t recommend Lauren more highly. She’s a gem, and we’ll definitely be booking her again!

Susie has watched my two small pups on several occasions. They are both skittish with people and usually won’t let anyone else walk them. Susie has managed to gain their trust, which is no small feat, and they now allow her to walk them! I highly recommend Susie as a pet sitter.

As a last minute booking, I contacted Vinnie from Rover because it said he was from Sayreville, where I live. We met, he met Louie, who hasn't had a dog sittter since 2019. Louie was a bit vocal, but he ended up getting butt rubs from Vinnie. Vinnie kept in touch with me with updates. I was satisfied with Vinnie and the short day and a half he spent with Louie. I took 1 star of 5 star review off due to directions for feeding Louie.
