House Sitting Dunellen

“Hadija did a great job as always with Max. No matter where we go my husband is always rushing to get back home to Max but for the first time yesterday he said that since Hadija was at home with Max we didn’t need to rush back. That is a huge compliment to Hadija!”

“Liana is the best and was able to come in a last minute emergency. She always takes great care of my dogs, sends me pictures and meticulously follows my instructions. I am so grateful that I found her.”

“We had an amazing experience with our sitter, Mariia! She took incredible care of our five dogs—Leo, Luna, Mika, Azul, and Arya. Handling five dogs is no easy task, but she was so patient, attentive, and truly caring with each one. We received amazing, daily, and detailed updates, which made us feel completely at ease knowing our babies were safe and loved. We came home to happy, relaxed fur babies, which says everything. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend sweet Mariia to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter.”

“I appreciate Jaden’s help petsitting. Jaden was kind and polite. Jaden respected my requests and was attentive to my dogs needs when I checked in. Jaden went above & beyond offering pictures of my dog and as well gave me a summary of care when I returned. Truly a responsible professional petsitter in my eyes. I already rebooked Jaden for another time. Thank you Jaden!”

“Brittany was amazing! She watched our three dogs overnight. They absolutely loved her and immediately accepted her as part of their family. She arranged, on her own time, to come and meet the dogs, and me, before she accepted the job to be sure it was a good fit. While we were away she kept us updated by sending us many pictures and letting us know how the dogs were doing. If she had any questions, she asked us for clarification. I would highly recommend Brittany and we will be asking her to watch our pack again I am sure.”

“Michael was pleasant, on time and most importantly my frenchie took to him right away! Great experience”

“I couldn’t have imagined a better sitter than Jess. She went above and beyond to care for our puppy and 2 cats. I received frequent updates and photos and reassurance that everything was going well. Our puppy wasn’t feeling well while we were away and Jess took such good care of her that I didn’t even have to worry. I recommend Jess for anyone that is looking for a caring, reliable and responsible sitter who will love your pet like her own.”

Amanda W.

“Connie did a great job taking care of our cat, Marvel, while we were away for one week. It was the first time Marvel was pet sat without her sister, Tasha, our dog who recently passed. Through this adjustment, Marvel certainly gave Connie a run for her money, but Connie made sure she was handled with care. We appreciated Connie's communication and commitment, and we hope to work with her again in the future. Thank you, Connie!!”

“Denisse quickly learned about our cats and their different needs. She was warm, thoughful , attentive and kind. I will definitely hire her again.”

“Leslie did an amazing job house and pet sitting for us. We have used her for a few years in a row now and she is so great. She is super reliable, takes care of our pet like she is her own, brings in the mail and packages, waters our many, many plants, and even fixed our air conditioning! She checks in regularly and is a great communicator. I can not recommend Leslie highly enough for both pet and house sitting.”

Jeanette M.

“Kim was a lifesaver! We needed a sitter last minute for our pups as we were traveling to Italy. She wrote down notes for each of the puppies during the house visit and was confident the care she would provide them. She was attentive to their and our needs. She kept us informed throughout our trip and was able to understand their personalities. The pups gravitated towards her and felt comfortable. I would definitely reach out to her again!”

Harpreet S.

“Calli was great and did everything as instructed, she was our first experience with Rover and did great with our two dogs and cat. It was great to enjoy vacation without worrying about our pets with Calli there watching them.”

Brittany P.

“She’s really cool and knows how to care for your pet”

“Wilson was awesome! Our dog isn’t the friendliest with others, but Wilson took a chance with our family and we’re so grateful that he did. We gave him very specific instructions since our dog is very particular, and he followed everything perfectly. On top of that, he made the effort to play with our dog and give him attention — and to our surprise, our dog (who usually takes a long time to warm up to anyone) was comfortable with Wilson in just two days! He truly went above and beyond. We are so grateful and thankful. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and highly recommend Wilson to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring person to watch their pet. Highly recommend!”

About: I'm a pet-loving mother of four with three children in college—and enjoying the wonderful pets I have met through this site. I have lived in Scotch Plains for almost 15 years. I watch several dogs regularly on a private basis and am excited to be part of the Rover community. I grew up with a beloved menagerie that included three cats, two beloved dachshunds and a poodle and have enjoyed watching a variety of dogs, including a bulldog, a French bulldog, a Bernese, a labradoodle, and, of course, mixed breeds. I love walking and daily yoga and look forward to helping your pets get the fresh air, activity and affection they need when you are working or otherwise busy. I am a freelance writer with a flexible schedule and have time for walks and visits before or after work and at lunchtime. Having raised a family, I know how important it is to have a pet sitter who is mature and reliable and understands how deeply you love your pets--and am honored to assist you in keeping them happy and healthy. While I would love to help every pet, I am petite, so my ideal sized pets are under 50 pounds. I am a freelance writer with a flexible schedule and my own car. I rise early every day, and I am often available on weekends. I am often available at lunch time to clients who need their dogs walked mid day. I am a mature, reliable and organized mother of four and will treat your beloved and adorable pet like a member of my own family.

“Bria was an incredible cat sitter. She administered his meds, played with him and sent us pictures of him regularly while we were away. She came a few days before to get acquainted too! Don’t hesitate to book her we will be booking her again!”

“Maria was excellent with Oliver. Communicated regularly, gave extra care and attention and most importantly made Oliver feel special while we were gone. We look forward to welcoming Maria back”

“Seana was booked for 4 days but unfortunately our travel plans got derailed due to Newark Airport but the night she spent with our pets I thought she was great. She was very responsive to our text messages & was very accommodating with our change of travel plans. I will definitely use Seana again!”

“Ethan is amazing! Hands down best person that could’ve watched Joey! He did everything possible to make sure i was comfortable throughout the day and made sure Joey had the best time under his care. He ran with Joey when he wanted to sprint, allowed him time to play outside and sniff around, made sure he ate, etc. I couldn’t be happier.”

About: I grew up caring for my family's black labs my entire life. I currently own two beautiful baby Shih Tzus, Tony & Guiness with my beautiful girlfriend. They add so much joy to our lives and are a big part of our growing family. I invest a lot of time and effort into training them daily, to build trust and give them the best lives possible. Taking care of the animals in my life is a passion of mine, and I treat every pet like it's my own. I'm currently making pet care my full time job. After years of training athletes, I'm opting for a career that is rewarding in different ways. I'm available any time Monday through and occasionally a weekend if I'm around and if it's a good fit. My apartment complex has many areas to walk outside, with sidewalks and open grass areas where I walk my boys. There is also a spacious indoor dog park in the basement of my complex where I take them to play, especially on rainy days. We do training both indoors and on walks outside, individually and as a family. I also expose my dogs to as many experiences as possible, bringing them to community events, outdoor dining, and social gatherings. Our family does not believe in leaving pets home alone all day every day, and want to give them as much stimulation and social interaction as possible.
