About: I was raised in a household that adores pets, therefore we have always had dogs around the house which made me feel a type of live that i never knew existed. I feed my dogs, bathe them, walk them and play with them as well. I am a full-time student, but I am ready to care for your fur babies every Saturday and Sunday, as well as on Mondays and Fridays. We have a fenced backyard that’s perfect for a relaxing day in the sun. My dog absolutely loves basking in the sunshine and chilling, and I’m sure your pup will feel the same way! My little dog will also appreciate the company. Plus, we have a cabinet stocked with toys, treats, and even some pet-friendly deodorant and perfume to keep your furry friend feeling fresh and happy!

About: Together, my partner and I have nearly a decade of experience caring for dogs, including our own three pups. Our oldest dog is 9 years old, and our youngest is 2, giving us firsthand experience with dogs at different ages and stages of life. From energetic young dogs to more mature companions, we understand the unique needs, routines, and personalities that come with each stage and are committed to providing loving, attentive care for every dog we welcome into our home. I have a flexible schedule during the summer months and plenty of time to provide attentive care for your furry family member. My partner works full-time and occasionally from home, so your dog will have companionship and supervision throughout much of the day. Together, we create a loving, comfortable environment where your pup will feel right at home. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are our top priorities. In our home, dogs are treated like family and are never left unsupervised for extended periods. We maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment and take time to learn each dog's routine, preferences, and any special care needs before their stay. We have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and enjoy supervised outdoor time. Inside, we closely monitor interactions between dogs to ensure everyone feels comfortable and secure, while providing plenty of opportunities for exercise, relaxation, and affection throughout the day. We carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any guidelines provided by owners. We understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, so we provide regular updates and photos to keep you connected and give you peace of mind while you're away. Our goal is to create a safe, loving environment where your dog feels right at home and becomes part of the pack 🐶
“Lisa was very kind and caring with my Junie. She sent me texts and pictures and I was put at ease immediately. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to using her services again.”

“Karla is amazing!! This is the second time we left our dog under her supervision. She sent us updates every morning and evening which is so great. My dog is paralyzed and needs special attention, but she was so amazing with him. You could easily tell that he loves her. Thank you so much Karla for your patience with Fido!!!! You are THE BEST!!!!”

“Lola enjoyed another stay with Aeli while we had to be out of town. The drop off and pick up is always smooth. Aeli provides us with daily photos of Lola enjoying her walks, play and relax time at her house. We have been so very happy with the experience and know that Lola has an amazing place to stay when we need to be out of town. We will definitely book again when we need. Thank you Aeli!!!!”

“Adam was great. I used him a few times while in New York on holidays. He is flexible, friendly and great with dogs. I will use him again next time I’m back :-)”

“Roman was incredible. He sent us daily pictures and videos and was very communicative. He took such great care of Luna for 2 weeks, taking her for long walks in the park. We will absolutely work with him again.”

“Erica took such great care of Kai while we were away. She sent daily updates and photos, which I really appreciated, and it was clear Kai was in good hands. Winnie is also such a sweet dog. I’d definitely book with Erica again.”

“This was the first time I was boarding my almost 13 year old anxious rescue dog. I was quite nervous but Lauryn eased my mind from the meet and greet a few weeks before. It was obvious how much she cared for dogs. My Shiloh was with Lauryn for 9 nights and did so well. Lauryn sent me pictures everyday and it was clear Shiloh made himself at home and was well cared for. The 9 nights included an unexpected night due to a flight cancellation. Lauryn was flexible and gladly cared for Shiloh for another night. Lauryn's home was very nice and accommodating for dogs and she is in a safe residential town. I know Shiloh misses her already and I look forward to having Lauryn sit for Shiloh again.”

About: I’ve taken care of puppies, senior dogs, sick dogs, dogs of many breeds and sizes. I currently have a dog of my own as well. I will give your dog all the attention he/she needs. We can play, do basic training, feeding, cuddles, walking, you name it, I’ll do it. I have a dog of my own (Cashew) and he’s super friendly with other dogs. I have 3 different dog beds (see pics) and plenty of toys that Cashew’s willing to share. I will keep an eye on your dog at all times to make sure it’s safe. I will send you as many pics and videos as you’ll allow me to.
About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and cats. I have also cared for other animals like turtles, frogs, rabbits, hamsters and birds. Growing up surrounded by pets sparked a lifelong passion for animal care, and I’ve been caring for them ever since. I used to run my own dog-sitting business in the neighborhood where I grew up. I cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, providing walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of love and attention. It was a rewarding experience that helped me build lasting relationships with both pets and their owners. I’ve also cared for cats and other small animals, always making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I take pride in providing dependable, compassionate care as if they were my own. As a teacher, I have a consistent schedule that allows me to care for dogs before work, after work, and throughout the weekends. On weekdays, your dog will receive plenty of attention in the mornings and evenings, and if boarding with me, they’ll have the companionship of my friendly dog during the day. I’m also available for overnight stays, boarding on weekends, holidays, and school breaks, giving your pet plenty of love, exercise, and personalized care while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In my home, pets become part of the family, receiving plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection while maintaining their normal routines as closely as possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both your home and your pet’s routine by following feeding schedules, providing walks, playtime, medications if needed, and lots of companionship. I know every pet is unique, so I take the time to understand their personality and needs to ensure they receive the best possible care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Anton was very kind and accommodating of my anxious dog. It was the very first boarding experience for my dog, Reiki, and he was very nervous when we arrived at Anton's place. I was worried that he would stay restless, but I was totally wrong! Anton sent me photos and updates, which made me feel safe asking more of his service again. Reiki was able to calm down within hours under his care, and very much enjoyed spending time with him 😄.”


“Let's put it like this, Iliana would and is the best step mother our furbabys can have. Iliana is a dog lover at heart, I feel my puppy is safe with her. Iliana's level of cleanliness is supurb, the exact environment my puppy would want to be in.”

Amarys was amazing with my dog, Diamond! She took such great care of her, played with her, took her on lots of walks, and kept me updated throughout the stay with plenty of photos. It was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable Diamond was. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches, and Diamond absolutely loved her. I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such good hands. We’ll definitely be booking with Amarys again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!

Christine is great and very caring for my fur baby. She paid attention to Furball’s food and exercises. She also sent tons of great pictures and updates during the stay. Furball had a great time and made new friends. Very happy and I trust her to sit Furball in the future. Thank you Christine

Christina was so communicative and Neptune seemed very well looked after while I was away for a week. When I described Neptunes potential reactivity she took it all in stride and he did very well while he was there, which I’m so grateful for. I will definitely use her services again!

Sandra and San were absolutely exceptional with our dog, Luna. From the moment we met them, it was clear they genuinely care about the animals they look after. They went above and beyond in every aspect of Luna’s care. Their attention to safety and protection gave us complete peace of mind, and they took the time to learn every detail of her routine—from her meal schedule to her individual needs and preferences. They even asked for our veterinarian’s name and contact information in advance, which showed how prepared and responsible they are in case of an emergency. Throughout Luna’s stay, we knew she was in loving, capable hands. The level of care, professionalism, and genuine affection they showed her exceeded all of our expectations. We couldn’t recommend Sandra and San more highly. If you’re looking for people who will care for your dog as if they were their own, look no further. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of Luna—we will absolutely be booking with you again!!

Our dog had a great time staying with them! He had a hard time adjusting at first and marked his territory, but they were incredibly patient and understanding. Before long, he settled in and became much more comfortable. They were the most responsive and communicative sitters throughout his stay. They kept us updated, flagged any concerns calmly without causing unnecessary stress during our wedding weekend, and took amazing care of Chase—even through the fireworks over the Fourth of July weekend. We're so grateful for the love and patience they showed him, and we'll definitely be booking with them again soon!

There is no one I trust more with my little one. Vinny makes sure that Luna is happy and well-loved. She was treated like family, and you could tell she was so at home when I got the pics of her watching TV and getting nighttime cuddles. Knowing that Luna was in great hands made our holiday that much more enjoyable. We will definitely book again
We had a wonderful experience with Edelann and Lax and felt completely at ease leaving Buddy with them. They were communicative, warm, and clearly treated him like part of the family. Buddy had a great time - he loved playing with their dog Akira and enjoying their big backyard, and it was clear he was happy and comfortable throughout his stay. We also really appreciated the updates and the attentive care they provided. We’re so grateful for the love and care they showed Buddy and would absolutely trust them again. Highly recommend!

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NJ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
