About: Hi! I’m Marina, a dancewear designer and a proud mom to a lovable 6-year-old dog. My love for animals brings me so much happiness, and I truly enjoy their company! I am mainly working in dance industry but do have part time to spend with dogs since I have my own and i have a lot of friends that have pets I just love to cuddle with them, walk them and play. I will prioritize the unique needs of each animal, recognising that every pet is special and deserves tailored care. I strive to create a comforting and personalized experience, ensuring that every pet feels valued and well- cared for.
“It is our first time sent bubble to day care. Darien is super responsive. Highly recommend!! sent lots of pictures and updates to ensure we knew bubble was doing good all the time! Thank you so much for taking care of Bubble!”
“A day for Pip with Amanda and Max is always a great day. They keep an impeccably clean and dog friendly house. And the gorgeous upscale neighborhood has quiet safe streets, so I know Pip is safe on his walks.”
About: I take dogs into my home to be loved and treated as my own. I am home all day and have alot of time all day to take care of them. I am retired, local resident with ample time on my hands. Willing to accommodate short notice if necessary. Reliable transportation can provide pick up and drop of service. I feed them, walk them, play with them as they were my own. Give medicine as needed. Provide trips to local dog park thru out the day.
“Tracy and Steve are amazing hosts and made sure our timid rescue pup felt right at home. They have great energy which helped Bonnie warm up to them quickly, and gave her her space while she got comfortable with her new surroundings. They’re also super communicative and flexible, which made me feel comfortable to have Bonnie in their care. Highly recommend!”
“Great experience! Our energetic standard poodle pup was treated well and had fun with Manuel. Pick up and drop off was very convenient We look forward to using Manuel’s services again in the future!”
“Outstanding service! I needed a last-minute backup sitter when our regular sitter wasn't available. Karen responded -and continued to respond throughout our interaction- immediately and thoughtfully. She asked excellent questions at our "meet-n-greet" and our pup immediately warmed to her and her well-kept home. I wasn't able to tell her exactly when I would be back to pick up due to lack of cell service but she took it in stride and replied "No problem" when I was finally able to communicate. Karen is new to this site and I'm confident she will be racking up 5-star reviews in no time. I will definitely use her again and tell my friends.”
About: I spent the past 4 years running a successful dog-watching business in NYC with my partner. We have since relocated to Northern NJ and intend to provide the same high quality services for pets here. I grew up with animals - dogs, rabbits, birds, mice, turtles and fish. I would’ve had cats too if members of my family weren’t so allergic. As a teen I volunteered with friends at our local animal shelter and chose to work with the cat population because most of the volunteers wanted to walk the dogs. Most recently I trained my own dog - starting from when she was 6 weeks old. I used a combination of training techniques (including crate training) to successfully potty-train her, teach her to walk on a leash and eventually teach her to hike and run together off-leash. My dog is now 3 years old and I bring her to my grandmother’s assisted living facility. She interacts with and plays appropriately with other dogs, pets, adults and children of all ages. She is a secure dog and adaptable to any environment. I believe my dog’s calm and friendly demeanor is a direct reflection of my skills. I’m prepared to handle dogs across the spectrum of sizes and energy levels. I live close to many beautiful parks and trails, some with dedicated areas for dog-play. I will closely follow any instructions you have for feeding, exercising, sleeping and socializing your precious pet. I work part-time from home and set my own schedule so I am able to dedicate the appropriate time and attention to your pet easily. I will treat your pet like part of my family if they stay with me. I have a very calming presence that animals seem to react really well too. I am happy to watch your pet at your place if that works best. I provide an engaging, safe environment no matter the location.
“Digdem is amazing!! After another Rover sitter cancelled on us at the last minute, she agreed to take our 9 year old, anxious, Weimaraner last minute on Thanksgiving Day! She was so accommodating and sent frequent updates throughout the day. We are so grateful to have found her and can’t wait to use her again. Very highly recommend!!”
“Yuberkis took such great care of my sweet Boy!! She provided pictures and videos throughout the day, which I really appreciated. I will definitely be booking with her again.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Anna! Duke had an amazing time at her place and absolutely loved spending the day with their dog Theo. Anna is incredibly caring and attentive to the dogs in her care. She was very mindful of Duke’s needs and made sure he was comfortable throughout the day. We especially appreciated the frequent updates, pictures, and videos — it was so reassuring to see how happy and relaxed Duke was. We would absolutely trust Anna with Duke again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and loving sitter.”

“Geoff & Family took such great care of our dog, sending regular updates throughout the day. They are true animal lovers with a great set up to properly host dogs and make them feel at home!”
“Doug was great with Molly! She had such a fun time and was totally tired out from her day. He was very friendly and provided updates throughout. He was very flexible with timing as well. We would definitely use him again in the future.”
“I wish I had found Ninoska sooner!! From the very first message, she was incredibly responsive and kind. When I dropped off Barto, he instantly felt at ease with her — which says a lot. Throughout the day, she sent me photos and videos, and I could clearly see how happy and comfortable he was. That brought me so much peace of mind! Now I’m just so happy (and relieved!) to have found a safe, loving place where Barto feels truly cared for. Thank you so much, Ninoska, for all the love and attention — we will definitely be coming back always!”
“Te is amazing!! Our dog runs inside as soon as we drop him off and we have to carry him into the car in order for him to leave. Te is very communicative throughout the day and sends multiple updates. I know our dog is in great hands and would highly recommend. I swear it’s our dog’s favorite place on earth.”

Essex Fells dog parents share their Rover experiences
Amy was really good with our dog who can be very nervous. He went crazy running in her big backyard and she was great about the high energy outside and was patient with him crying for a bit inside. She sent me an update and picture not long after we left to let me know that he was not crying anymore and doing well.
I am so impressed and happy with Amanda’s care! Fozzie was so happy and had such a great time at daycare. She is extremely flexible with drop off and pick up and I could tell Fozzie was well taken care of. This has eased our mind so much for our future vacation where we will be leaving Fozzie to be cared for by Amanda for a week. Highly recommend!!
Darien is incredible! Right off the bat when we first met her we got an excellent first impression. She will care for your pet like her own. Kind, compassionate and loving toward our dog. Darien is very flexible and reliable, which made our Thanksgiving gathering less stressful for the day. Thank you Darien for making life a bit easier during the Holidays!
Pooja was amazing with my Harlem. We did doggy daycare for two days and she kept me updated via message with all of his activity in any questions that she had. It’s hard to trust anyone to watch your dog, but her proactive communication & effort that she took to take care of him reassured me that he was in good hands and was having the time of his life! I’m so happy with the exceptional care that Pooja provided for Harlem and would rebook her again! Harlem says thank you!!
