“Raheem is warm and friendly and my boy Nippy took to him immediately. We were grateful for his availability when we had to make a last minute reservation due to travel. He was accommodating when we needed to extend Nippy’s stay. Overall I would recommend Raheem to take care of your fur babies.”

“As an admitted helicopter dog mom, I get nervous every time I have to leave them behind but Melodie has put all my concerns to rest. Brooklyn and Peppa had a great time with her. They enjoyed walks, tug of war games and lots of snuggles. And the bonus? - Her home is immaculately clean and smells amazing! In one long weekend, she has officially become my go-to. I will be booking with her again!”

“Huiwon won my dogs over in minutes - and I’ve never seen anyone do that. When I picked them up it was easy to see that they adored Huiwon and her entire family 🥰 couldn’t have asked for more! Thank you so much!”

“Saty took wonderful care of Gemini while I was away on vacation. He kept me updated with plenty of photos and videos and was always quick to respond whenever I reached out. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Gemini was being cared for with the same love and attention as if he were his own dog. I would absolutely book with Saty again.”

“Jaimie, is amazing with her warmth, care and open communication. She provides constant updates and responds well. We will absolutely will be using her services again.”

“My dog had a great time! Amy is very helpful and with daily updates and pictures to help us know things are good! Make our away time a lot easier. We would definitely use again in the near future!”

“From the moment we met Kajal, her family, and her sweet dog Nala, we knew Toby was going to be in the best hands. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and proactive throughout the entire stay — sending regular updates, photos, and check-ins that gave us so much peace of mind while we were out of the country. What truly sets Kajal apart is how naturally she treats every dog like family. Toby has had sitters before, but we have never seen him this relaxed, happy, and at ease with anyone outside of home. He fit right in with Kajal's family and Nala, and honestly? He almost seemed a little sad to come back — which, as a pet parent, is the highest compliment you can give a sitter. It is incredibly rare to find someone who matches the love and care you pour into your own dog, and Kajal does exactly that. Toby is more than a pet to us he's family — and she treated him no differently. I would recommend Kajal without a single hesitation, not just for Toby, but for any dog lucky enough to stay with her. If you're looking for a sitter who will love your pup like their own, look no further!”

“We have left our dogs with Maureen 3 times now and she is GREAT! She keeps in contact with us by sending pictures of the things they are doing throughout the day. She has a great property for the dogs to roam around and get the exercise they need! I feel that our dogs are in great hands when they stay with her. We will definitely be using her again the near future!!!”

“Lisa and her family took exceptional care of my 1 year old Maltipoo. Lisa was accommodating, flexible and very communicative. I would not hesitate at all to book with her again. Thanks Lisa!”

“Nan was absolutely amazing. This was my first time ever leaving my dog, who is very anxious without me, and she went above and beyond to make me feel completely comfortable. She sent so many pictures and videos, which truly put my mind at ease. Nan was so loving, patient, and caring, and it was clear my dog felt safe and happy with her. Thanks to Nan, I finally feel like I can enjoy work or personal trips without constant worry. I can’t wait to use her again and would recommend her without hesitation.”

“Lucas and Katherine were phenomenal! They sent videos and pictures the entire time my baby was with them. You could tell they really love dogs and she was so happy to be with them. It was great to know that she was being well cared for and loved.”

“Alice was great. Sparky was so happy with her and comfortable that he almost did not see me when I came to pick him up. Would definitely recommend and we would be working with her again”

“Bryan and Jacquelyn took great care of our dog Lucy. They gave us daily updates and pictures. Lucy was allowed on their couch and bed and from the pictures felt like she was very comfortable and felt right at home. We would highly recommend commend them and will book them next time a need comes up for us and if they are available.”

“We are so happy we found Nasreen to watch Disco for a couple of days. It’s always a little stressful leaving your pet behind, but she made us feel completely at ease (with pics and videos) . Our dog was clearly spoiled and loved on while we were gone. Disco was so happy when we got back. If you are looking for someone reliable who genuinely loves dogs, I highly recommend Nasreen and we will definitely be booking again!”

“We had left our 5 year old fur baby under Lakshmi’s care for the weekend , he was very well take care of , Lakshmi took all the required information , she was very meticulous in providing updates during Bentleys stay and took great care of him. Would highly recommend Lakshmi for anyone looking for a great home away from Home for their fur baby while you are out , know that your baby wil be well taken care of.”

“I have a 12 yr cockapoo who requires daily medication. Noria has been our overnight sitter since April 2024. She only takes one dog in addition to her own sweet Milo. Noria is incredibly kind, smart, professional, loves dogs and has a gentle/loving way in interacting with my Kobe. She has been truly a blessing to find! My family and I are assured that when we leave Kobe for an overnight with Noria that he is being cared for as if he is part of her family. Kobe can be an anxious dog and slow to warm up to people. She has a patient and playful disposition. From the first time he met her he was happy, calm and it was evident that he felt secure in her care. The medication and feeding instructions have always been followed and understood. We appreciate the photos she sends and the updates as to how he is doing. Noria is a genuine individual who has been a complete joy for our family to work with. We are so happy that she has been caring for Kobe. When we go away we know he looks forward to his time with Noria and Milo!”

“We couldn't have asked for a better sitter. We were nervous about leaving our dog with someone for the first time and Pardeep put our fears to rest with frequent updates and pictures. We could see that he was having a great time and getting lots of love and attention. We are so lucky to have connected with Pardeep and will absolutely be contacting him the next time we go away!”

“Esther is an absolute gem! My puppy, Alfie, had a wonderful time staying with her. From the moment we dropped him off, I felt completely at ease. Eather sent me frequent updates and adorable photos, which always made me smile and reassured me that my pup was happy, safe, and being spoiled with attention. She made sure Alfie got plenty of playtime and snuggles. Next day pup came home happy, and clearly well-cared for. I can't recommend Esther enough. She's not just a dog sitter; she's a true dog whisperer. We will definitely be using her again for all our future boarding needs! Thanks a lot Esther!!!”

“Excellent hosts for my pup! Michael and Whitney provided a great atmosphere for a dog to fit right in. They ensured I had regular updates and pictures of my dog. Fantastic experience and will be booking again in the future!”

Dunellen pet parents share their Rover experiences
We had a wonderful experience with our dog sitter. She was professional, reliable, and kept us updated throughout the stay with messages and pictures, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear that she was loving, caring, and genuinely attentive to our dog’s needs. We could tell our dog was happy and well cared for. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.

I truly appreciate Alex and the wonderful care she provided for my pups while I was away. She has watched my younger dog, Mila, before, and Mila is always happy and excited to see her. This time, Alex cared for both Mila and my 14-year-old Yorkie, and I felt completely comfortable leaving them in her hands. Knowing they were well cared for allowed me to relax and enjoy my time away without any worries. I would gladly trust Alex with my dogs again.

We found just who we needed- an outstanding sitter for my sensitive rescue pup. Gianna and Billy have a great calm warmth that Malarkey feels safe around. I can tell they really feel for him and understand his cues and this made him open up to them at record speed. Gianna’s photo updates were the best! I will now be comfortable going away without my fur son.

Our chocolate lab, Sky, had an amazing 12-day stay with Louie and his family! I received multiple pictures and videos every day of her playing outside and Louie was always very responsive. Louie was recommended to me by a neighbor, and I will 100% recommend him to anyone!

. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Soham took excellent care of Phoebe and treated her like his own. He sent regular updates with photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Even in snowy and very cold weather, he made sure Phoebe got her walks and plenty of playtime, including her favorite game of fetch. Phoebe absolutely enjoyed Rizo’s company and she received so much love and attention throughout her stay. It truly felt like Phoebe had a vacation of her own! We are incredibly grateful to Soham and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and responsible sitter.

I can’t thank Karina enough for watching my anxious girls on such short notice. They’d never stayed with anyone before, so I was really worried—especially about my most nervous one. But Karina’s patience and care won her over completely! My dad picked them up to happy, relaxed doggies and total peace of mind.

Leslie took great care of Finn overnight. He was comfortable with Leslie and her dog when we dropped him off. They had a great time playing and Finn was tired when he got home. Leslie sent pics and kept in touch,which we really appreciated. We were very pleased and will most definitely be asking Leslie again!
Thanks for caring for our dog! We really appreciate that Connie was able to accommodate our request on short notice. In addition, our dog had special health needs. Connie took this in stride and wanted to ensure she followed the care plan exactly. Our pup seemed to have a lovely time!

Dilan and Baran have both been amazing! They were very welcoming, I particularly appreciated their attention to detail. They asked all the right questions in detail and made sure they are prepared to look after Pluto. I also felt more comfortable knowing they rescued animals of their own and they understood the special needs of Pluto. He’s a very chill dog in general but he has his quirks around small kids and other dogs/ cats like other rescues. Dilan and Baran ensured Pluto was comfortable and happy. Walking, play times and feedings were all on point and although Pluto doesn’t love being left behind when we travel he was happy to give Dilan and Baran kisses when I went there to pick him up. I definitely recommend Dilan and Baran and very happy to have found them for whenever I can’t take Pluto with me when we travel!
