“Rosemery was excellent with my King Charles cavalier!. It was my first time using the app and leaving my three year old dog with someone who wasn’t family. She was amazing with keeping in touch and sending pictures. My dog looked so happy and comfortable to be cared for by her. I would highly recommend her and will def use her again in the future!!”
“Our Winnie has stayed with Patty twice. She was very accommodating to our travel plans which made the arrangements easy. Pics during her stays are always nice to receive. Our pup can be a handful and thankfully Patty survived! I would safely recommend Patty to other pet owners.”
About: Animal care in varying forms is what I do full time. I am available for boarding and sitting both weekdays and weekends, as you need. I have a large, warm home to offer to make your pet feel safe and at home. I can also fit right into your home, smoothly taking care of your pet in their own setting.
“Max and his family always take great care of Cali. Max sends me photos and keeps our very active dog busy on long walks, hikes and trips to the beach. We have used Max for boarding multiple times and never have to worry about Cali as his family showers her with love and attention. We can’t wait to book Max again.”
About: I have worked on a dog therapy farm caring for over 30 dogs, all different breeds, ages and temperaments. I would walk, feed, and care for the dogs. I had a pet cat growing up, and currently have a 8 year old, 100 lb American Akita that I rescued from a kill shelter with severe anxiety and behavioral issues - so I know how to handle difficult dogs. I also have dog sat my sister’s newborn dachshund puppy and her 2 year old rescue mutt. I am familiar and comfortable with all dogs and cats. Most importantly, I love them and will care for them with the respect and adoration they deserve! Im not working at this time, so I have all day to spend with your furry friend! I am available for walking, check-ins, or dog/cat sitting and will give them my full attention! I have a huge yard, although it is not fenced in, and I do have a dog at home. However, he is friendly and can be separated from your pet if needed, but he’s there for company if they want! I live in a quiet, foresty area, so plenty of long luxurious walks. I can crate your furry friend as well. In your home, I am fully comfortable sticking with walking/feeding schedules, and can adhere to your pets needs in their own environment!
“Excellent experience with boarding our senior dog. Because of our dog's age, we usually travel with him, but in this case that wasn't possible. We met with Brian and his wife before our trip, which gave us an opportunity to see how our dog would fare while we were away, and we felt very comfortable with dropping him off with them. They did a great job taking some special instructions into consideration, given his age. You can tell right away that they are caring "dog people". They sent pictures while we were away, and were available for messaging during the entire trip. We would definitely recommend them as sitters.”
“Angelina was very prompt with communication, very nice and demonstrably caring. Bodhi came with a cold/cough and she took care of his getting his pills, sent photos. In those photos he clearly looked like he was enjoying his time there with Angelina and her son. Thank you, Angelina.”
“Mark was an excellent sitter for our dog! He sent frequent and detailed updates with pictures. Mark and his family welcomed Chip into their home and Chip came back happy and tired from having a great time. We'll definitely board with him again!”
“Bob was wonderful to our nervous little pup! He made sure she was well taken care of and she felt very much at home at his place. Would definitely have her stay again!”
“Melissa took such great care of my dog while I was out of town. She sent me pics and updates at least once a day. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in her care, I would definitely use her again and recommend her to others.”
“We were hesitant about leaving Max with anyone while we took a vacation. After meeting Carol we we were reassured. She really put us at ease by sending pictures and a video of Max out for a walk. He was well taken care of and we could relax and enjoy ourselves. We will definitely book with Carol again when we need a sitter for Max. Thank you!!”
“Laurie, her three kids and two dogs were very good with our dog. She send nearly daily photos and was very flexible with her approach. 5+ stars. We will absolutely use her and family again.”
“My large 2 yr old doodle pup Rooney was a repeat client of Jonathan's this summer. He's very nice, dependable, flexible & has reasonable rates. He had great communication on logistics as well as providing updates on Roo. He was very accommodating with early morn./late night pick-ups/drop-offs which was much appreciated. I trusted that Roo was well cared for & having fun with walks & playtime in the big fenced yard.”
“Nicole and her family were amazing with my Husky. I was worried since it was the first time leaving him with someone he didn’t already know. Her yard is a doggie oasis, they were so loving and attentive and made me feel at ease leaving him while we were on vacation. I will definitely be using her again, 5 star doggie treatment!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Mary was excellent to work with. I was scared since it was my first time using Rover or leaving my pet with anyone that isnt family, but she sent me photos and kept me updated throughout our trip.”

Jessica was great! She took great care of my big guy (95 LB Mastiff/Hound mix) Frankie, taking him on several walks a day as well as making sure he got his daily medication. I received updates everyday that included pictures and videos. Frankie did have some separation anxiety but Jess made sure to spend lots of time with him to make him feel comfortable. Couldn't recommend her more!

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Howell home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Howell.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

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 .
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.

Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
