“Jessica is fantastic!!! Alfredo was adored for a full week and we could not be more satisfied. Jessica and her hubby love dogs - that is clear. She was kind enough to send me videos and photos each day! We got home yesterday and today Alfredo is looking all over for her and for the happy pooch friends he made. Could not recommend more.”


“Jessica was GREAT! Very affordable, reasonable rates, and flexible with her schedule. Our dogs received the best care possible and she sent us regular picture updates and was very responsive to our messages! We would not hesitate to book with her again.”
“Eduardo was great with our dog Milo and the space he’s set up for the dogs is clearly safe and fun. We’re so excited to have found Eduardo and Milo is looking forward to returning for more great times. Thank you Eduardo!”

“Gabby, Dylan & family are amazing! This was my first experience on Rover and it was great! Gabby communicated with me the entire time, sending pics of Chippy in various stages of cuddles. Chipotle was cuddled and loved up his entire stay! I would most definitely reccomend Gabby & Dylan, and I will absolutely have them sit Chipotle in the future. No words to say how grateful I am to have a place I know my floof is safe and happy.”

“Absolutely wonderful sitter! What meant the most to me was being able to relax while I was away and know that my dog was in good hands. I really appreciated the communication and updates, and I never once felt like I had to worry. When I came back, my dog was happy and relaxed, which told me everything I needed to know. I’m so thankful for her and would absolutely have her sit for my dog again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable.”

“My bulldog Otis boarded with Juan & David for a week. They were very kind to my dog and sent me daily pictures and updates. I never felt myself wondering how Otis was doing. I would absolutely recommend them for your next boarding”

About: I’ve loved animals my whole life. I grew up with my family dog Murphy and I had the opportunity to raise my own pets Chichi, Purple, and Marshmallow as an adult. I recently lost my dog and have been missing the comfort of having an animal around. During the week, I work from home, so I’d be there to provide care throughout the day and tend to whatever needs your dog has. I currently work from home, so I’ll be available around the clock to tend to your dog’s wants and needs. I regularly go on walks around my neighborhood during the week and try to fit a hike or park day on the weekends, so your dog would get exercise and lots of playtime. I live in a dog-friendly apartment building and have a spacious unit. I’m a very organized and clean person, so I don’t have clutter around the apartment that your dog could get into. I’m happy to accommodate any specific requests that you have as well since every dog is different!
“Hannah was the absolute BEST sitter! This was our first time using Rover and we feel so lucky it was with Hannah. Our dog Alfie has some funny quirks, resource guarding, and some unpredictable reactivity with other dogs and Hannah calmed any nerves we had going into the overnight stay. She was highly communicative, sent great pictures, and Alfie felt right at home! Would highly recommend Hannah to anyone in search of a reliable dog sitter, we will definitely be reaching out to her again for future stays!”

“Michael was awesome with T and great with communicating with me. Even meeting up at dog park before the reservation to make sure T was good for him and his space. Moreover, immensely accommodating amongst some travel issues. Highly reccomned”

“Michael watched our dog June for one night in preparation for a longer stay and was very communicative and helpful! We’re looking forward to having June stay with him again.”

About: Looking for reliability? I provide repeat as well as one-time services. Please reach out and we can discuss your needs! I'm a fully insured dog walker-sitter that also supports non-standard pets. Aside from experience with my own pets, I have over two years experience as a full-time walker-sitter and time with brick and mortar dog daycares. I have experience with dogs of all energy levels as well as dogs with special health needs. Based in Jersey City, my range includes Union City and Hoboken. I have years of experience with dogs as well as other animals such as birds, cats, rodents, and reptiles. I'm open to discuss other pets! My schedule is usually busy during rush hour (10am-2pm), but please don't let that discourage you. I am more than happy to discuss your needs and find a way to work best with our schedules. I live in an apartment. However, I am able to dedicate good time to walks and attention, so no need to worry about any lack of exercise.
About: Hi! I’ve grown up around dogs and have always had a love for animals. I’m caring, responsible, and excited to give your pup plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your dog with someone you trust, and I’ll treat your pet like my own while they’re in my care! Currently in school for my PhD so I have a lot of time when I’m home studying or doing work! If I do leave the house it’s only for a few hours at a time! I currently have no pets which can allow me to spend 1:1 time with your furry friends. They can stay at my house or I can come to yours whatever is most convenient!

“Eunice took excellent care of Cappy during the three days we were away! She kept me updated with texts and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. I could tell she read my notes about Cappy’s care. Cappy also had a wonderful time with Eunice’s family and her dog, Pincky! I will definitely reach out to her again when I need someone to take care of Cappy in the future!”

“If I could give Veronika 10 stars … I would! From the very beginning her expertise was on full display as she requested a detailed summary of questions to know exactly how to properly care for my dog, Marley. She was more than flexible, understanding, and willing to accommodate me for unforeseen circumstances (my dog ate chocolate and needed to see a vet prior to drop off time). Veronika communicated each day and provided pictures/videos that really made me feel at ease knowing that Marley was okay. She even provided Amazon links and recommended several types of harnesses and leashes for my dog to utilize since his harness is too big. I highly recommend Veronika to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”

“Mauree was very excellent and attentive towards my pet. She sent updates everyday to let me know how my dog was doing, and showed me all of the fun my dog was having as well!”

“Ivette & Gonzalo were awesome! This was my first time boarding my dog through the app, and they helped me with all of my questions, were super responsive and kind, sent me photos and updates, and provided an overall great experience!”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent service! They took great care of my dog and treated him like family. I felt at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”

Mauree was absolutely amazing with Zoey! From start to finish, communication was prompt, friendly, and reassuring. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear that Mauree truly loves dogs and treats them like family. We will definitely be booking again!

Highly recommend Tanacka. When I tell you she is amazing, she is amazing. My 2 fur babies was treated like family and made sure medication was given. My babies had daily exercise and alot of affection time. I will definitely Book with her again in the near future

Melissa was super understanding of my dog's needs. She treated my dog like it was her own child. Honestly, she was probably better than I was. I look forward to using her again and again. My dog was super happy for the week she was there. Keep up the good work! Next time I will have peace of mind while I'm on the beach getting much needed relaxation. Thank you!!

I would highly recommend Megany. It’s the first time that we have left them with someone else and we could not have asked for a better person to take care of our doggies. She would update us every day with pictures and communication was great. After a weeks stay they were very happy and healthy. We would definitely book with her again in the future.

Diana and her mom took good care of my baby Muffin while I traveled. They always sent the cutest pictures and videos assuring me my dog was happy and well taken care of. Diana was very professional , loving and caring. I would definitely trust my Muffin fur baby with her again.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
