About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 14. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets... I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups. I’m available for boarding and walking on weekends, and weekdays When I need to go out my daughter and my husband help me to walk and take care with pets. I have a huge fenced yard with lake and duck view, so your baby will have fun! I like to play with the dogs and cats!

“Margaret was great with our babies. With having an older dog and a new pup, they were all well taken cared of and no worries while we were gone.”

About: Dogs and cats are more than pets, they're family. I understand that more than anything and I will treat them with care, respect, and love. I have lots of time on my hands, so (unless stated otherwise), I'll be there for your furry friends! I’m willing to help you out! I don't mind transporting dogs in my car for the park or walking them around the neighborhood. And of course, I'll make sure they're well taken care of at home.

About: I have one year of experience caring for my aunt’s Husky, along with eight years of experience owning my cat Yogi. Caring for pets has taught me patience, responsibility, and the importance of making animals feel safe and comfortable. I will follow your instructions carefully and make sure your pet feels comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I’m a college student with a part-time job, and I plan my schedule to make time for pet care. I’m available on Mondays after class, Thursdays after 3:00PM, and Saturday mornings. I’ll make sure to communicate clearly with pet owners and provide reliable care during agreed-upon times. Your pet’s safety and comfort are important to me. I will follow your care instructions, keep your pet’s routine consistent, and make sure they have fresh water, food, attention, and a comfortable environment. I’ll respect your home, communicate updates, and contact you if I notice anything unusual.

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lovers with a deep passion of caring for pets of all kinds. Growing up surrounded by cats, dogs, and plenty of other furry (and not-so-furry) friends taught me how much love and care they deserve. My top priority is always making sure your pets are happy, healthy, and feeling loved. From feeding routines and walks to cuddle time (or just calm company for the more independent types), I make sure each pet feels comfortable and cared for according to their unique personality. I love keeping pets engaged with fun, stimulating activities. For cats, that might mean interactive toys, puzzle feeders, or laser play. For dogs, it’s usually games of fetch, tug-of-war, or a good old-fashioned frisbee toss. Even reptiles get the same thoughtful attention (maybe less cuddling, but plenty of care and respect!). Every pet deserves the best care possible, and that’s what I promise to provide. Whether you’re going away for a day or a week, I will treat your furry family member as if they were our own. I’d love to meet your pets and help you feel at ease while you’re away!

“Stacey was as advertised per previous reviews. She communicates extensively, which I love because when it comes to our pup I want to be informed and leave nothing up to chance. We will definitely be using her going forward.”

“Jennifer was amazing at taking care of our babies and home while we left town for a week to visit family! They usually take awhile to warm up to people but they seemed to adjust fine and happily with her company which made me feel so relieved!! I was so happy with all of the pictures and updates since it was our first time leaving them for such a long trip, we would definitely love to have her come back and visit Charlie & Henry again :)”

“Gary did a wonderful job caring for our Shiba while we were away! He was able to follow our detailed instructions and requests, gave our dog lots of exercise and attention, and kept in very active communication with us sending pictures and videos and updates. We will definitely call on Gary again!”

About: I’ve been raising and caring for dogs since I was 8! Having been the primary person for pups of all different kinds I understand the anxiety of leaving your pet alone for too long! I have experience with both young puppies and old timers, and I happen to be an expert pill-in-cheese wrapper for any dog in need of medical upkeep. I have been house and dog sitting for about 3 years now, just by word of mouth and recently decided to transition to Rover to expand my clientele. Let’s connect! I am currently working part-time teaching English as a Second Language! When I am not in the classroom, I’ll have plenty of time to bond and relax with your puppy! Consistent upkeep is the name of the game! Whether I’m watching your home or your dog, I make sure to maintain a consistent schedule of habits to keep your home and family member clean and comfortable.

About: We always had pets growing up. Mom to young kids who love animals. Great exercise and fun for the kids! Reliable, trustworthy, and will take the utmost care of your animal. I’m part remote and kids are in nursery school part time so someone is usually always home throughout the week. Weekends are usually spent exploring a park or playground. If I’m dog sitting that week the pup always comes along! Always looking to get some fresh air, exercise, and meet new fur friends! I have a fenced (aluminum) in yard and my house is baby proof so gates in play room and upstairs. Your pet will become a fur family member while you are away and my kids and husband will love them. Im currently working part time remote so I can board at any time in the week as my schedule is very flexible. If I’m not home then my husband will be home with our kiddos and your pup. I have a fenced in yard and play gates in my house (for my kids) but also gives everyone space if needed. We go out for walks 2/3 times a day and we have a local playground we walk too in the neighborhood for some extra play. The kids love to engage with the pup and we usually spend a good amount of time outside throwing the ball or stick.

I have 9 years of personal experience caring for my own dog, along with professional experience working with animals of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I previously worked at ShotVet Mobile Clinic and currently work at VCA Animal Hospital, where I’ve gained hands-on experience with animal handling, safe restraint, medication preparation, and assisting with veterinary procedures. Through these experiences, I’ve learned how important patience, safety, and compassionate care are when working with animals. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different needs and understand how to recognize when an animal may be stressed or uncomfortable. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet with the same love, attention, and respect I give my own. My goal is to make sure your furry family member feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care! I currently work part-time at an animal hospital, and I would love to spend my days off caring for other pets! Since I already have experience working with animals, pet sitting fits naturally into my routine. I enjoy spending time with animals and would be happy to dedicate my free time to making sure your pets receive the love, attention, and care they deserve! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities! I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own.

I understand that every pet has different needs and routines, so I will carefully follow any instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and other daily care needs. I will also keep you updated so you can feel confident knowing your furry family member is in caring hands!

“Emily was fantastic. When my work travel unexpectedly extended she was able to continue sitting my pup. She was extremely communicative throughout the entire sit and gave me peace of mind and heart while I was away.”

About: Diagnosed with allergies in childhood, I didn’t have pets until in my 20s, when I picked a week-old kitten from a litter & raised him. Thelonious used to walk between my shoulders as I moved around the house, and slept in my bed. Friends told me he behaved more like a dog than a cat—very affectionate. We were very close. His death broke my heart & I still miss him. Seven years ago, I did cat-sitting for a friend whose apartment in NYC I stayed in for a summer while working nearby on Varick Street. He was a very easygoing cat. Years later, my stepson left his dogs at our house & I was their primary minder. I fed, walked & played with them every day. Although I’d been around dogs a lot growing up, it’s one thing to be around them & another to be responsible for them & develop relationships with them. Each of the dogs had a very distinct personality, and I found them fascinating. Through those & other experiences with friends’ pets, I’ve found that I’m able to make connections with animals that go beyond words. I never would have imagined such a thing in childhood. These days I do house sitting & drop-ins for clients in Monmouth, Mercer & Middlesex Counties. I’m tending to pets with a wide range of needs & dispositions, and love I give is more than equaled by the love I receive from them. I’m truly humbled & in awe. Professionally, I managed desktop publishing & automated publishing for a Fortune 500 financial firm for 20 years. So I have a long track record of responsibility & discipline. That combination of sensitivity & responsibility are what I bring to pet sitting. I only accept clients living within a 30-minute drive from my home, and my routines at home are easily adaptable to meet my clients’ needs. That means my highly flexible schedule allows me to provide your cat with the consistent time, routine, and attention they deserve while you are gone. I don’t rush my check-ins; I stay the full duration to ensure your pet gets plenty of physical play and mental stimulation. Because my hours are highly adaptable, I can drop in at the exact times your pet expects breakfast, dinner, or treats. I’m happy to take photos during my stay to enable you as the pet owner to feel secure about your pet’s care in your absence. I like to play with & talk to pets, and try to adhere to their normal routines, so they, too, feel comfortable in your absence.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and truly love caring for animals. I grew up with three dogs and have years of experience caring for my own pets as well as dogs belonging to friends and family. I’ve also volunteered with animal shelters and at animal-focused events. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I’m happy to provide walks, feeding, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of attention. I can care for your dog in my home or come to yours, depending on the service. I’m a full-time teacher, so during the school year I typically work from approximately 8 AM–3 PM. I’m available before and after school, evenings, weekends, and school breaks. On weekends and breaks, I have much more flexibility and can provide around-the-clock care for boarding guests. I know how important it is to feel completely comfortable with the person caring for your pet, and my goal is to make your dog feel safe, loved, and at home while you’re away. ❤️ I am currently an art teacher working with students k-8. My schedule varies based on the school year. I can have full availability during weekends, summer, and evenings during the school year. have a small fenced-in area as well as a large grassy area perfect for leashed walks and outdoor time. I will always follow your pet’s normal routine, feeding schedule, walking needs, and any specific instructions you provide. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priority, and they’ll get plenty of attention while in my care.
