“First time Rover doggy parent and she made me feel very comfortable offered video call and pictures. Once I arrived very welcoming and made me feel safe with leaving him. Provided pictured of them all playing and sleeping and gave normal updates (he stayed over night)”
“Jenny was great with our dig, Riley. She asked lots of smart questions to be sure Riley was getting the best care and staying on his routine. She sent photos and was very accommodating when out flight delay resulted in a later than expected pick up. I highly recommend Jenny and will certainly call on her again.”
“This is my first time using a dog sitter and I was very impressed with the quality of care and attention provided by Ninoska for my little one. Shes truly a GEM... I appreciate the fact that she sent me videos to update me during my puppy's stay.....nice touch.. I would definitely recommend Ninoska to anyone who is looking for a professional and friendly dog sitter.”
“Hsin and Phil were amazing they exceeded all my expectations were very accommodating due to my flight schedules. They were very patient and updated me on my ivys status I wouldn’t want to choose any other sitter thank you guys you are the best. I appreciate everything you guys have done!!! I can’t thank you enough.”
“Let me start by saying this was my first time using Rover ever. Andrew was so helpful and reassuring and explained everything to me. Additionally, while I was away he kept me up to date with texts and pictures of Finn. Finn had a great time with Andrew and you can just tell Andrew knew exactly how to best care for my puppy. Thank you so much!!”
“This was the FIRST time I was able to leave my dogs anywhere and actually not worry or stress about how things may be going. Everything from the house space to the family, it’s all just perfect! And I’m extremely picky! So ya just a great experience in every way. I wish all sitters were like this one. Definitely recommend her and I would gladly pay even more than she charges. Totally worth the peace of mind. 10 stars!!”
“We can’t say enough wonderful things about our dog’s 6-night stay. They took such amazing care of her, giving her all her medications on time, playing with her, and even working with her on her walking skills. They kept us updated every day with photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She spent her days happily playing with their sweet dog Luna, and the whole environment was so calm, loving, and relaxing. Most importantly, they gave our dog a true feeling of home: warmth, comfort, and so much love. Nicolle and Ronaldo went above and beyond, they even helped us with picking her up and bringing her back, which made everything so much easier for us. We are incredibly grateful for the way Nicolle and Ronaldo treated her. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay, and we will definitely be back. Highly, highly recommended! 🐾❤️”
“Gio and Starry were absolutely incredible! This was our first time using Rover and they made the entire experience feel so easy, comfortable, and reassuring. They sent so many photos and thoughtful updates, which meant the world to me. I could truly see how loved and cared for Phoenix was the whole time.”
“Merin was AMAZING!! I really felt Moose was being well taken care of and left me with such peace of mind while on vacation. She was super thorough, gave constant updates, and reached out with any questions/concerns. Hands down we found our go to sitter which is the best feeling knowing I have someone to trust to take care of Moose when I need a little R&R! Thank you!!”
“Jessica and her family were great! We received a photo or video of our dog Hunny everyday and communication was really easy. I would definitely recommend her for looking after your dog and definitely will be booking with her for our next vacation.”
“I was so at ease , knowing our Ashley was with Walter and Katherine. They kept us updated on her time with them,Via messages and photos. Their dog Oliver is a great dog , with a perfect demeanor to play with others! We are so glad to meet them, and look forward to future doggy dates with them and Oliver.”
“I left my pup for a night while my hubby and I went to OKC. They did great! Very accommodating when we had to push the pick up time. They sent pictures to make us feel more comfortable, and my dog got along well with theirs (:”
“We booked with Sanaz for a long weekend and Ivy adored her! She sent us daily updates and took Ivy on lots of walks. Ivy gets very anxious when we go anywhere without her, and Sanaz was very understanding of her separation anxiety and made her as comfortable as possible. She also was flexible with timing of drop offs and pick ups which was much appreciated!! Thank you so much! (:”
“I am a first timer with this. But my experience was the absolute best. Koryn was very attentive to my fur baby in every way possible. Photos and videos were all sent at the right time .just when I started missing him I would get an update to put me and my daughter at ease. I definitely want to continue doing business with her. Thanks Love Jessie and family”
“I just left my 2 y/o Yorkie boy for a couple of hours as an introductory experience, and he was fine. Apparently had no problems with the other dogs there. Michael and his wife were very responsive and accommodating. I plan to use them again for an over night stay unless I find someone closer to me, and I recommend them.”
East Newark dog parents share their Rover experiences
Neide is the only person I’ve trusted with my dog Champ ever since we moved to NJ. She’s amazing - very attentive, caring and great at communicating. I never worry about him when he’s with Neide and he always looks so happy to see her and happy on all the photos and videos she sends me during his stay. I couldn’t recommend Neide more!
Another excellent stay with Maisha. Bentley always has a great experience and enjoys playing and making new friends. She provides excellent care and keeps me consistently updated with photos, which I truly appreciate. I also value the way she treats Bentley with the same care and attention as her own. Thank you again!
I boarded my dogs with Lindsey for 2 weeks and she is amazing! Both of my dogs got comfortable quickly with her, they were comfortable with her cats and dog. She gave me updates on my dogs throughout the time and also pictures which I really appreciated. I didn’t have to worry or anything the dogs were great with her and I would have her again watch the dogs in the future. She is responsive, caring to the dogs, gives updates/ pictures, very flexible with drop off and pick up times, I highly recommend Lindsey.
Ninoska was an absolute lifesaver for us during our trip to New York. We had a last minute issue with our hotel only allowing service animals and needed to find a sitter for our dogs very quickly. From the moment we reached out, she was incredibly responsive, kind and accommodating. Throughout the stay, she kept us updated daily with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind and allowed us to truly enjoy our trip knowing our dogs were safe and cared for. It was clear they were getting lots of love and attention while we were away. We are beyond grateful for her help and would absolutely trust her with our pets again in the future. Highly recommend!
From the second we met Joni I knew our dog Poppy would be in great hands. Poppy immediately felt comfortable with Joni and didn't even look back as we walked away during the drop off. Joni was in touch with us with pictures and messages about what Poppy was up to several times a day. We would recommend Joni to anyone who is looking for a loving and reliable pet sitter. Thank you Joni!!!!!
I recently booked with Jamin, and I can honestly say it felt like a true blessing. I’ve been raving about this experience to anyone who will listen! For the first time ever, I was able to go on vacation without constantly worrying about my dog—and that peace of mind is priceless. Jamin went above and beyond, keeping me updated with plenty of videos and pictures, which made it so clear that my dog was not only safe but genuinely happy and well cared for. His attentiveness, kindness, and professionalism truly set him apart. If you’re looking for someone you can completely trust with your furry family member, Jamin is simply the best dog sitter you could ask for. Thank you again, Jamin—I’ll absolutely be booking with you again!
Danielle was absolutely excellent! She was very communicative from start to finish and made the entire experience stress-free. I really appreciated the regular updates—she kept me informed and sent messages that gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear my dog was in great hands and being well cared for. If you’re considering booking with Danielle, don’t think twice—just book! Highly recommend her services.
I had an amazing experience! Rosemeri took great care of my dog, Coco, and made the whole process feel very comfortable and reassuring. She regularly sent pictures and videos throughout his stay, which really helped me feel at ease knowing he was in good hands. Coco looked happy and well cared for the entire time. Coco was very relaxed upon pick up which also gave more reassurance. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter! Thank you 🙏🏼
