“This was our first time using Rover services and Sherylee was an outstanding, caring sitter for our cat, Porter! The pictures Sherylee sent assured us that Porter trusted her and felt safe and cared for. She followed all of our care suggestions for Porter and we could clearly see that Sherylee is a true pet lover. We will definitely request her services again when we go away!”


“Brandon is absolutely awesome. We were away for a week and he took excellent care of our pup while we were away. One of my family members who was checking on things while we were away accidentally locked a lock that Brandon didn’t have a key for and once he got in touch with me he drove back to my house after 11 pm just to make sure the dog went out one more time. He’s a gem!”


“Jonny did an excellent job of caring for our boy Royal. He gave us constant up dates even down to how many times he went to the bathroom. I really felt comfortable leaving Royal with Jonny he is so calm,cool, and collected I know it made our pup feel secure. Do not have any worries about your pet when they are in Jonny's care.”

“Cheryl did an excellent job taking care of both of my cats. She was very caring, kind, and thorough. She left updates and pictures. I highly recommend Cheryl if you were looking for someone to take care of your animals.”


About: Throughout our years of experience, we have recognized the importance of enrichment and daily exercise. One of our previous dogs had seizures and required oral medication, so we are trained and experienced with those situations. As a family, there is always someone home to be supervising your pup so they can have the attention and support they need. As a stay at home mom of older children, your pet is a large priority of my day to day schedule. My children also share my love of animals, so this also is a great bonding experience for all of us. We own our home and it has a large, properly fenced in backyard. Since we live in the suburbs, we are in close proximity to parks and it is perfect for longer walks. We have small and extra large crates available. Any pet we take care of are allowed on our furniture, however we can respect owners wishes to keep them off furniture as well.


“Victoria has been a pleasure to work with so far! I have a dog that wasn’t socialized as a puppy and as a result has high anxiety when he meets new people. Victoria has been very patient with me and my dog while we slowly get them introduced. I’ve never been able to hire a dog walker before because of his anxiety, but I have faith she’s going to be amazing with him! Definitely recommend Victoria!”


About: I have experience with both dogs and cats. I lived with my cousin and her dog for some time so her dog became my adopted dog. I enjoyed taking her on walks, playing with her, and making sure she is happy which made me happy. After some time, I moved out and got a cat. My cat was very playful, had a unique funny and cute character. But unfortunately she got very sick. There were many veterinary visits to take her to, administration of medications and making her last living few weeks as best as possible. I enjoy taking care of pets. I am an animal lover and am passionate about all animals. I currently have a flexible schedule so I can accommodate your pet’s needs. Both mornings and early afternoon work best for Monday through Friday :) I am respectful of my client’s home and treat pets as if they are my own. I am attentive and responsive to pet’s needs. My goal is to make sure your pets are comfortable and happy.

About: I treat each pet as if they were my own, focusing, not on their basic needs, but also on their comfort, emotional well-being and routine. I’m available for dog walking, drop-ins or drop offs M-F 9-4pm. I’m available to give lots of love, attention and playtime for your furry friend! I will ensure your pet gets its regular physical activity and playtime. I have a large fenced yard and one friendly Golden Retriever to keep your furry friend company. If you’d prefer walks I will treat your home and pet with respect and kindness.

“Jaclynn was excellent with our older dog. He felt very comfortable with her comfortable her. I am sure he looked forward to his daily walk. It put our mind at ease knowing our dog was well taken care of.”


About: I’ve been the sole caretaker for my dog since I was 18 and treat any pet as if they were my own. I love all animals and ensuring they get the utmost care is a passion of mine. I work full time during the week, but I’m available early in the morning or after 5:00 PM on weekdays and anytime on the weekends. I’m looking to get more formally involved in animal care and can make my schedule flexible with advance notice. I’m available for drop-in visits and walks. I can adapt to any accommodations your pet might need whether we’re going for a walk around the neighborhood or staying within the vicinity of your property. I’m happy to spend time with your pet ensuring they get proper care while you’re away. Having my own dog and experience with cats, I understand the needs of a wide variety of animals and the value of reassurance as a pet owner.

About: I’ve cared for dogs at every stage of life—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra support. I am also experienced with dogs with behavioral challenges. With a background in the mental health field, I bring a calm, compassionate approach to pet care, grounded in patience and an understanding that behavior is a form of communication. I take time to build trust and tailor my care to each dog’s unique needs, always prioritizing their comfort, safety, and emotional well-being. As a graduate student at Montclair State University, I’m local and have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate extra time to pet care. Whether it's daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, I enjoy fitting pet care into my routine—it’s a meaningful way for me to help out while spending time with animals I love.

I’m happy to be flexible and work around what you and your pet need. I provide care in my clients’ homes to help pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment.

My goal is to make your pet feel safe, secure, and cared for while you’re away, all while keeping your home tidy and routines consistent.

About: I've taken care of both dogs and cats throughout my whole life. I'm very comfortable with dogs of every size and breed as well as more exotic pets like rodents, reptiles and ferrets. I'm a freelance Spanish<>English interpreter and translator which leaves me with a flexible schedule to fit pet care into. I sit at a desk a lot either taking calls or typing away in my computer. My breaks consist of going on my phone or getting something to eat. However, I'd love to instead go out for a nice walk with a furry friend or play or just sit with them and keep them company while their favorite person comes home. When I first arrive at my clients house I make sure to greet the pet. It helps me asses the situation and make sure that they are okay in all sense of the word. It also helps the pet realize that I'm not a threat in their territory and that I'm here to play, feed them, give pets and cuddles, keep them company and to take care of all their needs. Then I proceed according to the care instructions given to me by the pet's owner.

About: Your pet will be the only baby at my apartment. Because my cat is with my mom now. I have taken care of my cat June for 6 years. Now she is with my Mom because my Mom is depressed. Now I can help take care of your cat or dog now. I am at home every day. If your cats or dogs need full day attention. And I can stop by any day if just visit. I am a friendly person and cats all love me. I feed them on time and play with cats regularly to make them happy. I cleaned their cat litter frequently.

“Thank you! You put Pete's mind at ease. He's just beginning to travel again and the cats are like his children. His anxiety was gone and he loved that Ellen was patient and understood that they both do not come out for most folks. It can make it boring for the human. Lol. So thank you for being kind and understanding! Appreciate you.”


About: When I was younger I was in 4-H Therapy Pets group where we took our pets to visit seniors. I grew up around animals and have had cats, dogs, a rabbit, hampsters and birds. I grew up surrounded by a variety of pets, including cats, dogs, a rabbit, hamsters, and birds. This hands-on experience taught me how to care for animals of all kinds, understand their unique personalities, and make them feel comfortable and safe. I currently have a full-time job working Sunday–Wednesday and Fridays from 5 a.m. to 1 p.m., so I’m available most afternoons and evenings, as well as Saturdays. I can take your dog for a walk and tire them out with friendly play! Or if your pet just needs someone to keep them company and look over them I can do that too!
