“Laura did a great job and gave me real peace of mind when I was on vacation. We had very hot weather and I appreciated her letting me know that the house temperature was cool and they had plenty of water”


“Kelly is the absolute best. This was our first time on Rover, and her communications were clear and quick, and she did great work reassuring us that our pup was in good hands. Loved the photographs, and really appreciated the time she took to communicate with us by phone and by text. We’re only slightly concerned that our pup now likes her more than us! 😀 Hugely impressed with Kelly - she’ll take fab care of your pups.”


“While I was away, Tania took amazing care of my Doberman and Chihuahua. She was incredibly informative, kept me in the loop the entire time, and made being away from my dogs so much easier. She sent updates with pictures and videos, which was not only helpful but also super cute and reassuring.Both of my dogs were comfortable and clearly well cared for I could tell they were happy and relaxed with her. Tania treated them like her own and handled them with so much patience and love. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be reaching out to her again!”


“Andrew is so caring. My two Siberian boys trusted him right away. I know everything went well not just because of the notes and pictures shared (which were great) but because my sweet boys greeted me joyfully having been well cared for!!”


“Andy was an incredible sitter for our cat, Lincoln. He was highly responsive throughout the entire process, and he provided thorough check-in summaries with pictures, which really helped ease any concerns about our pet while out of town. Lincoln is not always the nicest to newcomers, and Andy did a great job navigating Lincoln’s defensiveness”


About: I have years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, including seniors and puppies. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like family. I’m comfortable with administering medications, following feeding and walking routines, and providing lots of affection. What sets me apart is my reliability, calm energy, and genuine love for animals. I understand how important it is to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment while you're away. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, slow-paced walks, or just company on the couch, I tailor my care to meet their unique needs. I work from home, which allows me to provide flexible and consistent care throughout the day. I'm available for regular walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. Since I'm home most of the time, your pet will rarely be left alone and will receive plenty of attention and affection. My schedule makes it easy to accommodate pets with special routines or needs, and I’m happy to adjust my day to make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. At my home, I offer a secure, fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and exercise. I have two friendly, well-behaved dogs who love the company of new friends and help create a welcoming, social environment. I always monitor interactions to ensure everyone is getting along and feeling comfortable. If your dog prefers their own space or needs a break, I can provide crate accommodations upon request. I maintain a clean, calm, and loving environment where your pet will feel safe, happy, and cared for.


About: Hi there, my name is Julie! I’m a 27 year old New Jersey native. I’m new to Rover but definitely not new to caring for pets. I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up with dogs and regularly pet sit for friends and family - so I’m experienced with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether it’s a brisk walk or just some company and care I’d love to help! I’m reliable, friendly, and will be sure to care for your pet like I would my own. I’m currently working remote 3 days a week which allows me ample time to care for and play with your pets. I’m available for boarding long weekends and can accommodate Thursday-Monday. I’m also available all week nights after 6pm. I live in an apartment steps away from the park with easy access for walks and bathroom trips. There are no other pets in the house so yours will get all the attention and love they need!

About: My desire is to provide a vacation home for the dogs who stay in our home - a place where they feel safe and comfortable while having fun and enjoying their stay! I took care of my dog, Coby, for 9 years before he went to doggy heaven. Ever since, I’ve been passionate about dog health and diet. Now I want to use my free time to provide a loving home for your dogs. I know dogs are family and leaving them while you’re gone can be difficult. I seek to provide dogs a space where they feel comfortable, loved, and stimulated. I’m currently on leave from work, so I would be able to provide your pup with the best care and play! I would be able to tend to any needs I observe and provide both physical and emotional care for your pups. Your pet would be in a safe and dog-friendly home where they would be free to rest and play. Our furniture downstairs is open for naps, snuggles, and rest. There are also fields of grass surrounding our townhouse as well as good areas for dog walking.

“Nicole was great! Booked drop-ins on pretty short notice and Nicole was flexible & gave great updates & pictures on our kitty who had actually just been missing for a few days & was recovering and had some slight injuries still-she was super sweet & helpful - would definitely use Nicole again!!”



About: I have cared for both dogs and cats over the years, and I currently own a 10-year old tabby cat. I am interested in petsitting either small to medium dogs and/or cats in your home only within the neighboring New Jersey towns of Belleville, Clifton, Passaic, Bloomfield, Lyndhurst, Montclair and Garfield. Working in other areas would be negotiable on a case by case basis, especially if it were in Manhattan or other New Jersey towns. I am also available to be a dog walker on nights and weekends, too. I can also pick up your mail, water your plants, feed your fish and possibly other small errands or household chores as well. I can visit before and/or after work or throughout the day on my days off. This depends on the season and my current work schedule. For a client’s home I always put fresh (wet and/or dry) food and water. When we come back from walk, I will wipe all paws and butts afterwards. It’s also important to bond with the pet and spend some one on one time at home before and after a walk especially at the end of my visit.

About: I grew up in the Philippines from when I was born till I was 19. And for those years we have always had a dog in the house. Most at one time was 6 dogs. All are trained and well taken care of from the moment they were born or adopted. Giving them their best lives is all that they deserve from us, these furry friends will love us unconditionally. It’s my job to make sure that they feel that same love back. I am currently working part time on a few jobs around the Montclair/Bloomfield area. I plan to return to school for my doctorate but for the mean time caring for pets have always been a love of mine and I will do my very best to make sure your little (or big) buddies get the attention they require. Depending on the breed of dog and their individual energy levels, their playtimes would vary from either indoor activities like tug of war, sensory activities like training their sense of smell with treats, or more outdoor backyard stuff like fetch, making sure all their zoomies are taken outside before they cause a mess inside the house. Making sure that each pet is well stimulated and given and good amount of food and water after tends to get them in a lot calmer mood as the sun begins to dim

She also sent pictures in our report card which we loved to get at work :-) thank you Izabella!”

Faith Y.
“I wouldn’t trust anyone else to look after my pet other than Faith. She is the most caring and loving caregiver, who is not only attentive and detailed in taking care of the wellbeing of the pup, but also cares genuinely out of deep love and affection for dogs in general. She is respectful and makes sure to ask the right questions ahead of time to ensure the dog’s safety as well as my preferences as a dog owner. Her home is well suited and is a nice clean environment, and she will always ensure to take only one dog in at a time, so that there are full precautions taken. Highly recommend Faith!”
