“Sharyn was so great with our cats. It's my first time using this app and she was helpful from day one. We went on a 7 day vacation and she came to feed the kitties everyday. She spent an hour with us so that we could show her where everything for the kitties was. Everyday we received pictures from her and she was very sweet with our cats. Such a sweet lady, she's hired for our next trip. ❤️”

“Boryana did a great job looking after my cat (Spike) while I was away! She stopped in daily to take of him. She’s reliable, responsible, trustworthy & a great communicator. She loves animals and she treated Spike like her own. I highly recommend her to take care of your pets while you are away!”

“This was our first time having Ryan and Shannon take care of of pups! They were great, awesome pictures and great communication. Will definitely be using them again when we need dog coverage!!”

She’s very calm, gentle, and professional. Can’t recommend her enough! We will definitely book her again next time we need someone to check on our fur babies.”


About: I have a full-time job that includes a lot of travel, so please reach out if you’re looking for a day I’m marked as unavailable. I currently work full-time but travel a lot so my schedule changes from week-to-week. My schedule is flexible at night and sometimes during the day. In your home I will do what’s necessary to keep your fur babies happy and comfortable while you are away. I’m happy to sit and cuddle with your senior animal or spend my time playing with young ones.
“This was our first time using this service and we couldn’t be happier. Chelsea was awesome!! She played and took care of our pups as if they were her own. Every visit was followed up by a report and some great pictures. She even took the time to water our flowers and garden since it was so hot out We’ll definitely be using Chelsea again”
About: I've had dogs since I was 14 and have taken care of them for family and friends over the years. That includes small and big dogs, young and old. Dogs in general seem to be drawn to me. I'm currently working part-time so that gives me more time to care for your pets and give them the attention they need and deserve. The best thing I can do is make sure your pet is as comfortable as possible while you're away. I do that by keeping them in their same routine everyday and giving them a lot of attention.
About: Hi, I’m Jill and I live in Hightstown, NJ. I have loved animals from a very young age and grew up with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, lizards and hamsters, so I’m knowledgeable on what needs to go into caring for them. I’m able to provide a safe environment with a large fenced backyard for your dog(s) to run and play. I work from home some days, but otherwise I am in my office 15 min away from my home. I love to go for walks, so your pet can get in a good amount of exercise. As I currently do not have any pets myself, I am excited to get the friendship and love that dogs always provide! Looking forward to meeting you and your pup(s)!
About: I’ve been working with dogs and cats since July 2020 with minor experience in a grooming salon. I’ve always loved animals and decided to start my own dog walking business in February 2022 and have loved every aspect of it. If you’re interested in boarding, please message me before booking. I enjoy getting to know pets and their families and always make time to go over all your needs thoroughly to ensure you can trust to leave your animal with me comfortably. Your dogs needs are always my top priority and will never hesitate to protect your baby in an unsavory situation. I can administer a range of medicine, including insulin and administer fluids, adhere to any dietary and exercise needs, and love going on long walks at the park. Dog walking and sitting is my full time occupation. I am usually walking dogs from 9am-3pm on a daily basis. I have a few families that depend on me daily and some for emergencies or last minute bookings throughout the week. I book most of my stays in advance and recommend that if I cannot leave your dog unattended for at least 4 hours to look elsewhere (sorry!). My calendar is updated daily, please reach out and say hello! I always make sure to meet with a family before confirming a booking. If the booking is far enough in advance I recommend at least 1 or 2 more visits prior to the families departure just to go over basic info, daily routines, and to let your pet get more familiar with me. I’m always happy to stay over night, am very friendly with neighbors, and am a quiet homebody type. I would never invite guests over while you’re gone and always make sure I leave your home cleaner than you left it. Your trust is most important to me and hope you will consider me when booking your next trip!
About: With over 10 years of dedicated pet care experience, I am passionate about providing a safe, loving, and dependable environment for dogs, cats, and birds. I offer pet sitting, dog walking, boarding, and day care services tailored to each pet's individual needs. Daily activities may include walks, playtime, enrichment activities, feeding, medication administration when needed, cuddles, and plenty of one-on-one attention. Throughout my years caring for animals, I have worked with young pets, senior pets, special-needs pets, and animals with challenging behaviors. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I take the time to build trust while maintaining their normal routines to help them feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow feeding schedules, dietary requirements, and any special instructions provided by owners. I work from home, which allows me to provide frequent supervision, companionship, potty breaks, and attention throughout the day. Your pet will never be left alone for extended periods and will receive the same love and care I give my own animals. I am attentive to changes in behavior or health and remain calm and prepared in emergency situations. My goal is to give pet owners complete peace of mind while providing pets with a fun, comfortable, and stress-free experience. I genuinely love getting to know each animal's unique personality and look forward to welcoming your beloved companion into my care as part of the family. 🐾 I currently work part time and have plenty of time for your baby/babies. I love animals they always seem to come to me out of a group. Follow whatever instructions you have for the safety of your animal. Crate, special area blocked off, etc. make sure there is nothing for them to get into
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and can’t imagine life without them! I’ve taken care of friend’s pets many times and love every minute of it!

When my dogs were young they were crates so I have experience with that too.

I am currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pup! Weathers getting warmer so it’s time to get those steps in! I know how important it is to run on a strict schedule. As I own a dog myself, she too is provided with strict feeding and walking times that fit our schedule. I will do everything I can to make sure your pet is treated with the same care and respect!

About: I grew up with dogs and love spending time with them! I’ve helped watch families and friends pets and love being able to spend quality time with them! I’ve helped with dogs as small as malteses and as big as goldendoodles! Ive also helped dogs with specific needs such as blind and older dogs! I work remote one day a week so I’m happy to watch dogs or take them out, I just need a heads up to pick the day I work from home. I also typically work 8-4:30 so I’m happy to take dogs out in the mornings before work or as soon as I get home! I’m also happy to do weekends. I have a fenced yard for any pet to wander around in and am happy to walk them around my neighborhood park! No other pets in the home!
About: I have taken care of dogs of all sizes and breeds. Family, friends, and neighbors have relied on my to walk and feed their pets.

I love to play with, taking them on walks, giving treats, and good belly rubs. I love pets more than people and having a dog myself I understand they deserve all the affection and care. This is why I would love to care for your pet. I will care for your pet and follow any instructions that you provide.
Hightstown pet parents share their Rover experiences
I had a really positive experience. Sue came out for a meet and greet a couple days before so my puppy could get to know her. On the days of the service she walked him, played with him, and made sure he got some attention and activity. She kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the visits, which gave me peace of mind. Everything went smoothly and I felt he was well cared for.

Once again, Sharyn came to the rescue! I completely forgot we were going somewhere for Mother's Day and I contacted her last minute and she saved the day. She was in constant contact since she was en route home from a trip and wasn't sure if she'd hit traffic so she kept me posted the whole time. Send me the BEST pictures and the cutest report card. I am so grateful for Sharyn!!

Elizabeth was professional and accommodating. I needed a last minute sitter for my 3 month old puppy and 7 year old lab and she responded fast and we were able to set everything up for the next day. She sends updates and pictures throughout her stay. She was great with both of my dogs and they loved her. I came home and couldn’t even tell anyone was there. I will book with her again in the future!

Another great experience with Ryan & Shannon! I went out of town for the day and they completed a schedule of three drop ins for my dog, including walking, feeding, and cuddles. Ryan & Shannon continue to be enthusiastic, professional, and trustworthy pet sitters. I look forward to working with them again.
