“Alba was amazing! She took care of Tory so well, and Tory loved her. Everyday she would send me pictures of Tory with cute little outfits or cuddled up - I could tell how happy my baby was. It was the first time I had Alba babysit but definitely won’t be the last!”

“Judy is AMAZING! I felt so comfortable leaving my baby with her, she sent me pictures and videos and updates and I will send Tyson to her every time I need a sitter! I knew she loved my boy just as much as me the second I left her house after dropping him off.”
“This was our first time leaving our pup overnight and we were a little nervous at first but Christine was wonderful! From the moment we dropped her off, she made her feel right at home! Great communication and updates anytime! Yuna was so happy and already whining to go back as soon as we picked her up! She had a fantastic time!”

“Crystal and her family were great and our little guy had plenty of love and attention from all of them. He came home happy and healthy and very well cared for. I highly recommend Crystal and will be using her again very soon!”

“Merideth was great, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust my pet with her again. She walked him regularly, sent photos, and kept us updated on how things were going the whole time.”


“Patricia did a great job watching Archie. She kept in regular contact with me while I was away. Archie felt very comfortable and at home with her. We will use her for future boardings.”

About: I have had dogs since I was a teenager and now care for my one senior dog and one mid aged dog as well . I am currently a stay at home mom so I will have plenty of time to give your pet all the care and love they need! I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for play and two loving older dogs of my own who love to relax, sun bathe on the deck and sleep all day. We also love to spend time at night cuddling with our guys on the couch!
“Jousline did an amazing job caring for my French Bulldog, Jorden. She was attentive, reliable, and made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. Jorden can be a little particular, but Jousline was patient and handled everything professionally. I also appreciated the updates and communication, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I would absolutely recommend Jousline to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”

“Lisa was amazing! We had to make last minute adjustments for a trip out of the country for my Ella to stay with her. She was patient and understanding. The best part is when I went to pick my girl up after not seeing her for 10 days, she was still herself. It's obvious that Lisa has a love for animals. I would recommend to anyone :)”

“Mark was fantastic! Leia had a great time and was well taken care of. We got a lot of videos and picture updates! Easy to contact, quick to respond, in a safe neighborhood. We will definitely have him watch Leia again!”

“Nicolena was great! I highly recommend here! My dog has bad separation anxiety and she was amazing with Blaze! Kept me updated throughout his stay! She is very good with dogs and would recommend her and would absolutely leave Blaze with her again!”


“Gwen is amazing! I felt she displayed the confidence in handling our 90lb Rhodesian Ridgeback from the moment we met- She properly and confidently introduced her dog to Ffion in a calm, controlled manner. She truly understands a dogs mindset and immediately connected with Ffion- she is a dog lover through and through! She welcomed Ffion as if she was part of their family and I felt that our dog would be safe, loved, and more than cared for on her overnight stay. A beautiful fenced in yard, a warm and kind family who also clearly loves dogs, organized (with her instructions printed) and clean + comfy environment. I look forward to booking with Gwen in the near future and we are so happy that we found her! Highly recommend!”

About: I am a work from home dog mom and love my German Shorthaired Pointer, Remi. We go to the beach, park and go on neighborhood walks every day. I have the availability and capacity to have another dog to tag along. I have fostered dogs in the past and love helping a dog have a safe and comfortable place to stay! I work from home and take my dog for a walk every few hours or bring her to the beach or the park on my lunch break. Dogs have plenty of toys and comfortable places to relax and play while I work. Remi would love to keep your pup company! I have the room to have your dog set up however they need. If your pup is crate trained, I have a spare one to set up for them with all the comfy things needed to put in it. I have lots of treats and toys for pups to play with and a safe, dog-friendly neighborhood to walk them in.

About: As a lifelong animal lover, dog mom to my energetic 2-year-old Golden Retriever, Boomer, and mom of three active kids, caring for others comes naturally to me. Our home and lifestyle are very active, so I’m comfortable handling dogs with lots of energy, big personalities, and different needs. I have experience with pets both big and small and understand how important it is to keep them safe, exercised, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, cuddles, check-ins, or dependable in-home care, I treat every animal like part of the family and care for them with patience, attention, and genuine love. My schedule is very flexible thanks to my career in real estate, which allows me to adjust my day around client and pet care needs. I’m available for morning, midday, evening, and weekend walks or drop-ins, and I can often accommodate last-minute requests. Because I create my own schedule, I’m able to provide reliable, attentive care and plenty of time and attention for your pets. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. As both a dog owner and mom, I understand how important trust and communication are when someone is caring for a member of your family. I’m attentive, dependable, and respectful of both your home and your pet’s individual needs. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels and always focus on creating a calm, positive environment where pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, walking routines, crate training preferences, and any special care requests to help keep your pet comfortable and stress-free.
“Matthew and his family were great hosts to our Welsh Terrier Winnie. She is an active dog with a lot of attitude. With their two dogs Henry and Jacks they were able to keep her running, walking, and content. We know our dog had a great time when she comes home spent, worn out, and sleeping for two days. Matthew sent pictures each day and Winnie had a blast. Two thumbs up and we will gladly use Matthew again..if he'll let our 17lb beast back in their home!”

“Daisy was very sweet and attentive to Hari. She provided us with photos and he looked content in all of them. She gave him his meds and he was walked every day. He looked clean and healthy when we picked him up. We will definitely be using Daisy again.”

Forked River pet parents share their Rover experiences
I can't say enough how wonderful it is to be able to spend time away knowing that Melissa will be looking after our Misty. Misty loves her and is ways so excited to see her, and she is very responsive to our communications. We couldn't be more grateful to have the peace of mind we do when Misty is in Melissa's hands!

Anne was fabulous with our senior dog Nelson! She was so kind and warm. He absolutely had a fabulous time with her, her grandkids and her lovely backyard. She did such a great job taking care of him and giving him all his heart meds on his crazy schedule. We will absolutely be back! Thanks so much Anne 😊
