“I just cannot say enough good things about Amy and her care for my pup Beau. Above all else, Amy and Beau really connected, and seeing how comfortable and relaxed he was with her and her family gave me the ability enjoy my trip. Amy sent pictures of Beau enjoying his stay at least once a day. So glad to finally have found my dog person!”

“Jenny and her husband are the best dog sitters we’ve ever had! One of our pups got a little sick, and he they took every precaution to make sure he was okay. From calling the vet, sending us updates, and sleeping with him at night to make sure he was okay, they treated our dogs just like they were their own. They really put us at ease and we always know that our dogs are in good hands when they go to visit!”

“Rebecca and Ozzie are genuine dog lovers. We went away for a week, and they were great about sending us pictures and updating us on our dog Charlie. We consider Charlie a part of our family, and we all missed him while we were away. Rebecca set our minds at ease by sending pictures and videos each day, and she shared information about his eating habits (we learned that he doesn’t like his beef wet food). We will definitely use their services again in the future!”

“If I could give her 10 stars I would. I am very hesitant of who I leave my dog with. Roxann made me feel comfortable and eased my anxiety. My dog is on antibiotics and she had so problem at all giving her her meds and making sure she was happy. She would update me multiple times a day and send pictures. My dog is house broken but idk why she had an accident in the house and I as an owner was so embarrassed but Roxann did not make me feel bad about it at all. I would recommend her to anyone. I have used this app twice before and never left a review and never felt like my dog was being treated just the way I treat her, but she was! I am definitely going to use her again! Thanks Roxann!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have always helped my family care for them. Over the years, I’ve had 7 dogs and 2 cats, which has given me plenty of hands-on experience with different personalities and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, basic care, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine. I’m available for evening check-ins and walks during the week, and I can also board pets on weekends. My schedule allows me to give your pets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while making sure they feel comfortable and happy. I provide a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment for every pet in my care. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and get exercise, as well as one friendly dog and a cat who is used to being around dogs and gets along well with them. I can also crate your dog if needed and will always follow your pet’s normal routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions you provide.

About: Why Choose Me? 🐾 Caring for dogs is something I’ve been doing my entire life. My family has never been without a dog, and now that I’m in my own home with my husband and our 2-year-old dog, I get to continue doing what I love—giving dogs a safe, comfortable, and loving place to stay. Over the years, my family and I have cared for the pets of friends and relatives more times than I can count, from overnight stays to month-long visits. Every dog who comes into our home is treated like family from the moment we meet them. We’re happy to give them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and, of course, lots of snuggles on the couch. 🐶❤️ Meet Ellie! 🐾 Our 2-year-old pup, Ellie, is a crazy, fun-loving girl with lots of excitable energy! She absolutely loves having other dogs around and is always ready to make a new friend. Whether it’s running around and playing, chasing each other in the yard, or simply hanging out together, Ellie loves the company of other pups. Because Ellie is so playful, she can be a great companion for dogs who enjoy having a furry friend around. Of course, I always take each dog’s personality and comfort level into consideration and make sure everyone gets the attention and space they need. A Home Away From Home 🏡 Our home is a place where dogs can truly feel at home. If your dog is used to sleeping in the bed, they’re welcome to do that here too! If you prefer that your dog stays off the furniture at home, we’ll absolutely do our best to maintain those boundaries and routines. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone else, so my goal is to make the experience as stress-free as possible for both you and your dog. Your pet will receive the same patience, attention, affection, and care that I would want for my own. 🐾 I’d love the opportunity to get to know your pup and give them a loving home away from home while you’re away! Pet care is something I make a priority in my daily routine! I love making sure every pup gets plenty of attention, playtime, affection, and opportunities to feel comfortable and at home. I plan my schedule around the needs of the dogs in my care so they can enjoy a safe, loving environment while staying active and happy. Our fully fenced backyard provides a safe, spacious environment where dogs can play, explore, and enjoy fresh air alongside our friendly, playful dog, Ellie. We offer plenty of supervision, attention, and opportunities for fun, along with a comfortable crate option for dogs who prefer a quiet, cozy space to relax and recharge.

“David and Phyllis were wonderful in accommodating our unique situation and went above and beyond to make sure Cassie felt comfortable in their home. Communication was excellent—not only with us but also with our friend who had been caring for Cassie during the month. They kept us well informed and made sure we received updates on how Cassie was doing, which gave us great peace of mind. We truly appreciated their kindness, flexibility, and the loving care they gave Cassie.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly Recommend April! April was an absolutely wonderful pet sitter for my dog. From the moment we connected, I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in such caring and capable hands. She provided regular updates throughout the stay, which helped me feel connected and reassured while I was away. The pictures she sent were priceless and clearly showed how happy, comfortable, and well cared for my dog was. What truly set April apart was how much love and attention her entire family gave my dog. It was obvious that my pup wasn't just being watched, but was welcomed as part of the family. The affection, playtime, and companionship they provided made all the difference. I could tell my dog was having a wonderful time and was genuinely cared for. I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional care April and her family provided and would trust them again without hesitation. Highly recommended! 🐾❤️”

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Elm home-away-from-home, packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Elm.

<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Elm sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in NJ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
