“Thomas is amazing with my dog. He helps me every week going in to walk him while everyone is at work. He’s become one of my dog’s best friends and couldn’t ask for anything more! Reliable and consistent!”

“Thanks Jonathan for looking after our cat Maisie for a week at relatively short notice. She was very content when we returned and am happy to recommend your cat sitting services”

“Kelly is the absolute best. This was our first time on Rover, and her communications were clear and quick, and she did great work reassuring us that our pup was in good hands. Loved the photographs, and really appreciated the time she took to communicate with us by phone and by text. We’re only slightly concerned that our pup now likes her more than us! 😀 Hugely impressed with Kelly - she’ll take fab care of your pups.”

“Carolina was incredible. I am always so stressed when we go away but from the first message I knew my 6 month old kittens were well taken care of. Carolina was incredibly communicative and responsive and my girls fell in love with her!”

About: I've been pet sitting for family, friends, and neighbors for as long as I can remember. Apart from my current two dogs, I've also raised three previous dogs from being a puppy into their senior years. I'm a firm believer in positive reinforcement training, every dog deserves the utmost love and care. I own my own business and set my own hours so I can accommodate anyone's pet care needs. I'm fine with short notice requests and can work with anyone's schedule! I have two dogs that can run around freely in my fenced in backyard. They each get at least two solo shorter walks (about 15 minutes around the park we live next to) per day and an additional longer walk (around 45-60 minutes) once my girlfriend gets home from work where we walk both together.

“I’d easily recommend Jonny to anyone. Me and my wife have a fairy large dog who doesn’t love new people. With our wedding coming up we needed to find someone to pop in and check on him, Jonny did just that for us and alleviated a lot of our stress. Jonny was super flexible with his schedule, he took the time to get out dog comfortable with him. At first meeting our dog was on the aggressive side and Jonny didn’t flinch. He’s a true pro. Beyond that he’s a great guy, super calm and friendly, there was never a doubt about his character and leaving him access to our house. We will definitely be using him more in the future. I couldn’t recommend him more.”

About: I understand how important it is to have someone reliable and patient looking after your pets, and I always try to give them lots of attention, affection, and exercise based on their individual needs. I currently offer drop-in visits, evening house sitting, and walks. I know every pet has their own personality, so I always do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also have a senior dog of my own who has a special diet and is partially blind, so I understand the extra patience and attention some pets may need. During walks, I keep her close to me, help guide her safely up and down stairs, and carry her when needed. I also administer her eye drops daily and make sure she stays comfortable and relaxed. Caring for her has taught me how important gentle, attentive care is, especially for senior pets or pets with special needs. I have a fairly flexible schedule! I’m currently available weekday afternoons and evenings, as well as full availability on weekends for Over night House sitting, drop in visits for both cats and dogs, and dog walking! Visits include feedings, fresh water, potty breaks, walks and playtime! I’m happy to help keep up with your pet’s normal routine so they feel safe and relaxed in their own home. For walks, I focus on making sure your dog has a safe and fun outing.

“Tirzah did an exceptional job taking care of my kitties. McLovin connected with her instantly, and she always played with him which he loves. Ms. Vanjie takes more time to get close to new people but Tirzah was patient and gave Vanj the space to come out and play when she was ready. I felt really good on my trip knowing our babies were safe and in good hands”

“Jamie-Ann is amazing! She has won the confidence of my very shy cat. I can’t tell you how much better I feel about traveling knowing Jamie-Ann will be there for Harley.”

About: I have been an animal lover all of my life. I grew up with cats, caring for my beloved Walter until he passed at 20 years old. I have since had the pleasure of my own Lab (now 10) as well as experience in Doggy Day Care where I was playroom manager and responsible for dogs anywhere from 1-20 in one playroom at a time(room combo of an average of 45-55 dogs in the whole building split between rooms and size).I am looking forward to more one on one relationships with families and their pets. I am looking forward to a career as a Vet Technician, and plan to take classes in the Fall. At the moment, I am wide open to spend time with local pets as I prepare to return to school. My plan come Fall will be part time classes and more time animals. Pet care will be my priority in my weekly routine. I always spend time in advance with the fur babies to get to know them and importantly, discuss the pet parents' needs. Do they need special food? Special training at meals for over excited pups? How much do they like to play/walk? Do they like to interact with other pets or prefer to stay one on one with me? I am also extremely responsible in the homes of pet parents, cleaning up after the babies as well as making sure the home is secure.

“Karin is great! She is very courteous, detailed, and caring. Needless to say that my cat loves seeing her every time and runs to greet her enthusiastically.”

“Siara M. Is a top professional with a heart of gold! She really helped our family get through a difficult time. One of our dogs had to be put down right before we had to go away. We didn’t want to leave our other pup alone. She came in and truly spent quality time our pup who had never been without her companion. She kept in touch with us with thoughtful pics and feedback that lifted our spirits and let us know our dog was in good hands!”

Judy H.

“Brad was very responsive to a last minute request to let my dogs out when I couldn’t get back home in time to feed them. He fed them and let them out and hung out with them for awhile.”

Bridget F.

“Katie did an awesome job will absolutely use them again. Four dogs is alot to handle but with their daily updates we never felt concerned. Great Job!”

Paul & Marcela R.

“I booked Ruby very last minute and she was very accommodating and followed the instructions I left her to a T. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and responsive pet sitter!”

About: 📝 About me: Hi! I’m Caitlin, a full-time educator and experienced dog owner and foster based in downtown Montclair. I’ve spent many years caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments — both personally and through rescue work. I regularly foster and have hands-on experience with: 🐾 Puppies and senior dogs 🐾 Frenchies, Boxers, German Shepherds, Shiba Inus, and more 🐾 Medically fragile dogs (including IVDD, allergies, and gastrointestinal needs) 🐾 Medication administration 🐾 Leash reactivity and behavioral needs I understand that every dog is different, and I take a calm, structured approach to help them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. While I’m new to Rover, I bring over a decade of hands-on experience with dog ownership and fostering, including medically complex and behaviorally sensitive dogs. I maintain relationships with many of my fosters’ adoptive families and often pet sit for them when they travel. I’m happy to provide references upon request. 🏡 Your dog will be treated like part of the family in a clean, safe, and supervised home: -Supervised care (I have cameras in my apartment for added safety when I’m away from home) -Multiple daily walks + enrichment opportunities -Clean, comfortable indoor environment (dogs have access to all furniture and fluffy surfaces) -Consistent routines to reduce stress -Plenty of updates, photos, and communication My dog, Georgia, is friendly, social, and enjoys the company of other dogs. I always prioritize safe, appropriate introductions to ensure a good fit. 💊 Special skills: -Medication administration (oral, topical, etc.) -Experience with IVDD and mobility considerations (I have ramps for furniture) -Allergy-sensitive care (diet/environment awareness, bathing, ear care, etc.) -Handling anxious or leash reactive dogs -Rescue/foster transition support 📅 Availability: -Weekends… boarding, walks, and drop-ins -August… full availability for boarding and extended stays I work full-time outside of the home, but maintain a consistent routine with my dog, Georgia, including hour-long walks each morning and evening. During the day, she is cared for by a long-time, trusted dog walker. On weekends, I love taking her on hikes, beach trips, and other outdoor adventures. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and boarding on weekends and during school holidays. I’m also off for the entire month of August, when I can accommodate longer stays and provide more flexible, full-time care. Safety is always my top priority. I provide a calm, structured environment and closely supervise all dogs in my care. My home is dog-friendly, and I’m mindful about introductions, routines, and each dog’s individual needs. I have extensive experience with a wide range of dogs, including puppies, seniors, medically fragile dogs, and those with leash reactivity or special dietary needs. I’m comfortable administering medications and managing allergies. For boarding, I do not leave dogs unattended for long periods, and I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you always know how your pet is doing. I also have cameras in my home for added peace of mind.
