“Kaela and her family are awesome. We really liked how responsive and accommodating she was. We needed to book a last minute reservation 2 days for our dog for July 4th, she quickly responded to confirm. Most importantly, seeing our dog happy when we picked her up the first day, and wagging her tail when seeing Kaela the second day, showed us how happy the doggo was with Kaela. I'd definitely love to have Kaela take care of our dog the next time we are in the area.”
About: I have been around dogs and cats my whole life. Up until recently, I have raised 2 dogs for the past 15 years and cats prior to/during part of that time. I am a stay-at-home mom with 2 young adults away at college so I have flexibility to visit homes with dogs or cats throughout the day. My innate ability to connect with animals has inspired me to seek out work where I may spend more time caring for them. I understand the care and concern pet owners have for their pets, especially when they are not able to be home for them. My experience being the primary caregiver for my own pets has nurtured my love for animals and provided me with knowledge of basic training techniques. It is my goal to provide peace of mind that I will care for your pet the same as I would for my own furry loved one. I look forward to visiting with new furry friends! I am currently home all days of the week except midday Tuesdays. Therefore, I have flexibility to visit pets throughout the day on most days. I am currently living in a neighborhood with ample space for walks. In addition, I have reliable transportation for visits to clients’ homes as necessary.
“Ashley did an amazing job watching our fur babies! She was very responsive and communicated the entire time. Stanley and Lola loved spending the day cuddling with her. Thanks so much Ashley!”
“I highly recommend Gabriela!! She is a fantastic communicator and very accommodating. She watched our dog for us while we were traveling in the area and wanted to take a day trip to Six Flags Great Adventure. You won’t be disappointed with her attentiveness to your dogs needs. Our girl had a great time romping around outside. Thank you!! We will definitely seek her services again if we decide to make another trip down.”
“I cannot recommend Vickie and Heath enough! Wonderful! From the moment we began communicating to picking up my dog Maui, Vickie was wonderful and warm-hearted! Maui is an 8 month-old Labrador, so he needs a lot of attention still… And, I felt such peace of mind leaving him for the day with Vickie and Heath. I received video updates and could see he was having so much fun! I’m so glad I found Vickie and Heath and look forward to when Maui can go back and have more fun!”
“Laura is amazing! My dog Milo is very anxious which makes me very nervous to leave him and she did so great with him! All the update pictures also helped make me feel better that he was okay! Highly recommend Laura!! 😊”
About: I really focus on structure and training not just basic walks and cuddles. I have hands on experience helping dogs with obedience recall and leash manners and I am comfortable following a family’s training plan or reinforcing commands your dog already knows. I especially enjoy working with puppies who need consistency and socialization and I am also happy to give senior dogs gentle walks slower routines and lots of quiet time. What sets me apart is that I treat every dog like a student calm patient and consistent while still making sure they get love play and plenty of mental stimulation. I am happy to send photo and video updates follow your schedule for treats and meds and create a routine that fits your dog’s personality instead of a one size fits all approach. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I am already used to being around dogs and building consistent schedules. I set aside time each day for walks play training reviews and check ins so pet care does not feel like an add on it just slots into my normal rhythm. I am also a student with flexible hours so I can plan walks visits or in home stays around your dog preferred times and your schedule. Treating pets like part of my routine helps me give them steady attention the same kind of structure they are used to at home. I care for pets in my home by giving them a quiet dedicated space where they feel safe, plenty of breaks outside, and regular meals and potty breaks on a schedule. I keep the environment calm and predictable, avoid overstimulation, and follow your instructions for treats, toys, and any training cues your dog already knows. If I am at a client’s home I keep the same routine, making sure your pet gets walks playtime, and cuddle breaks while respecting your house rules. I always check in with you first about anything unusual and send updates so you can feel at ease while you are away.
“Elias and Alicia were so great! I felt as ease with them watching my dogs and received updates about them during their stay! We will definitely book with them again!”
About: I have many years of experience with dogs. I have babysat and cared for friends dogs and also for my own dog. I recently adopted a cat so I also have a little over a year of experience with looking over cats. I have lots of free time to be able to play and care for your pets. I don’t have many distractions during the day meaning my full attention will be caring for your fur babies. I have a fenced in yard and a pretty spacious home. There is lots of room for my cat to roam around. He even has his own room and his own bathroom. There isn’t a lot of traffic around my neighborhood so I like to let my cat outside on a leash so he can feel the sun on his face.
“Lola has been with Venessa numerous times for daycare, every time is exceptional, I feel at ease, and the communication is all day with pictures and updates on how she is doing. Can’t recommend enough!”
“Swapna took the very best care of Koko. She was in constant contact with me, sending updates and pix throughout the time Koko was there. Her home and yard were perfect for Koko. Large backyard completely fenced in. Lower level of her home, separated from her animals, was clean and smell-free. I would definitely recommend Swapna to care for any of your pets.”
“Gerry is so sweet and takes great care of my pup! My dog comes home very happy after her time with Gerry. I am so thankful for the love and care she gives to my girl!”
“Lauren was great with Jax. Kept me well informed on how he was doing. He seemed to enjoy his stay and didn't want to leave. Definitely will be booking with Lauren again.”
About: Hi! My name is Courtney and I have always been known as the animal girl/lady and have worked in just about every part of the pet care industry with pride. I am a former master groomer as well as canine trainer, have worked with thousands of dogs regardless of breed, age, or background and have never met a dog, cat or creature that did not love me as much as I do them❤️ From trimming nails to snuggling up with your pup at night, if you choose me to care for your animals, they become my own and part of my family❤️ when applicable, I also do incorporate training into regular walks and drop ins to make life a more pleasant experience for both our furry family members and us humans! I am also well versed in other species from big to small and am meticulous in my care of all creatures. As a trainer and handler I have also cared for dogs during show days at venues, prepped dogs for the show ring and taken dogs to canine sporting events as well as lessons. Lastly, I’m always quick to snap a great photo of a pup, cat or our other family members looking their best, and always love a good impromptu photoshoot to send you! Overall, I am here to support you and your animals to have and be the best you can be as a team, and look great doing it! I currently have full availability to bring any animals into the Courtney’s Cuddles and Care Family❤️ I work from home making dog apparel and service dog gear, so always open for communication and a drop in! I am always happy to go over each individual pets needs and routines and follow them meticulously, as well as incorporate training and/or grooming as needed! Every animal I have the pleasure of caring for becomes a part of my family and is treated like my own. My service dog, Tsunami, is also an extremely well trained, very neutral dog that I am happy to introduce to others that need friends! She is a rough collie, or as many people recognize, a lassie dog!
“Carly and her husband know exactly how to help my nervous dog, Nomi feel safe and comfortable while away from home. Thank you so much for taking care of my special girl today! 💗”
“She's an awesome caretaker, updating me about all the minute details about my pet. My pet was so comfortable with her and I can tell he really got along with her. The best part is her attention to every detail and investing time in updating me with every thing. 11/10 would definitely recommend her and I personally look forward to leave my pet with her again.”

If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 .
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.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
