“John and Nicole have a lovely home and beautiful backyard and took very good care of my peaches and mango. I would feel very comfortable leaving them there if I go away again. They seem very happy and exhausted!”

About: Pet Care Experience I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet seniors who need a little extra love and patience. I’ve helped with walks, feeding, giving meds, and of course plenty of belly rubs and cuddle time. I treat every dog like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. What Sets Me Apart I really take the time to get to know each dog’s personality and quirks. Whether it’s helping a puppy learn good habits, supporting an older dog who moves at a slower pace, or sticking to a routine to keep your pup comfortable, I always adjust to what your dog needs. I also pay close attention to little details—like favorite toys, treats, or special instructions—so you can feel at ease knowing your best friend is in caring hands. Since I work from home, I have plenty of flexibility to give your dog the attention they deserve throughout the day. I can easily step away for walks, playtime, or check-ins, and I love having the company of dogs while I work. Whether it’s sticking to a set feeding and potty schedule or adding in some extra cuddle breaks, I’m able to keep your pup’s routine consistent and stress-free. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In my care, I make sure they’re in a secure and pet-friendly environment—free of hazards, with plenty of space to relax and play. I always follow your instructions closely, whether it’s diet, medication, or special routines, so your pup feels right at home. When caring for dogs in a client’s home, I treat the space with the same respect as I would my own. I keep doors locked, routines consistent, and make sure your dog feels safe and loved until you return. Building trust is important to me, so I provide updates, photos, and quick check-ins to give you peace of mind while you’re away.

About: Pet owner, pet lover! I have been sitting for friends and family since I was a teen. I also grew up around large dogs. I adopted a staffy mix in 2014 and we had 9 great years together before she passed. I’m not ready to adopt again, so until then, I’d like to help others. I’ve also had a few cats in the past and currently have 2! They are both tolerant of dogs and if they are uncomfortable, they will typically leave the room. My friends will bring their dogs when they visit me and my cats do well. I don’t have a yard per se but there is a lot of open space for frequent walks/potty breaks. My apartment complex is very pet-friendly. I am on the 2nd floor, so there are 2 sets of steps that may make it hard for older dogs. I often do overnights and stay with pets in their own home to maximize their comfort and keep their routines intact. I’m flexible based on your individual needs. One of my interests is in animal behavior. I have read many books (my favorites are from Patricia B. McConnell) My philosophy is we are training everyday. Consistency is important to me and for them, so I will ask many questions during the meet and greet stage to understand their needs and know how to best support you both. I look forward to meeting you both! My schedule is determined by the pets in my care and their schedules. I am currently freelance with WFH tasks and gig work and schedule my other jobs around my pet care calendar. I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex with lots of open space to walk. With me, your pup will have 24/7 one-on-one attention. They are allowed on the furniture and will always be supervised. I also have room to set up a crate if they are crate-trained but most of the time they will play and hangout where I am. I have 2 cats that do well with dogs. The cat food is raised off the floor and litter boxes are located in the main living space and are scooped immediately.

“Tracy took excellent care of my boy. She kept in contact and gave regular updates throughout the day. My boy came back happily worn out from all the playtime. We just got back and he’s snoozing by my side with a smile on his face. I cannot say enough good things. I highly recommend booking with Tracy and Mark and will definitely book again.”

“Stephanie took great care of Luigi while we were gone for the day. She sent updates with pictures and got him to eat. (He is a picky eater) He felt very comfortable staying with her. We would definitely use her again!”


“Donna is such an amazing dog sitter. This is my first time leaving my dog with a dog sitter, so I was a bit nervous but Donna is very thorough and knowledgeable about dog needs. She knows what is normal and abnormal so I felt comfortable leaving him with her. She also has a strategy to minimize stress for the dog during hand off and plays calming music when he first went in the house. I will definitely use her again if I need. She also sends pics which makes me feel reassured.”


About: Hi I had a dog for 16 years I like playing with dogs and taking them for long runs If necessary I will feed your dog and take care of a bowl full of water If I need to keep him away from other dogs or vice versa let him hang out in the park and enjoy it I'll do it I will listen to everything you have to say about what your dog needs because I think that is the most important thing Because for example my dog is allergic to a certain food so as much as I want my dog to be okay I will protect your dog the same way Finally I would be happy if you would contact me at your convenience
“Brian was great! Super flexible with my odd work hours. Finn was very nervous as Brian was his first sitter, but he ended leaving with a wagging tail! Loved the photo updates as well!”

“Leah was so kind and accommodating with our high energy and anxious dog. We had a daycare trial to see how Penny would do and if she would be a candidate for boarding. I felt that she will be safe and well cared for staying with Leah and her family for an upcoming trip we have planned.”

“Jennifer was great! She took our dog on such short notice and was extremely quick with all of her replys. My pup was so tired when I picked her up, from playing and going on walks. We will definitely be coming back to Jennifer.”
About: My love for dogs is endless. I've been involved in dog rescue for over 12 years. The fun dogs, the shy dogs, the dogs with no direction and the perfect dogs, dogs of all ages. A very quiet home with playtime if they want it or quiet time that they need. I provide lots of enrichment and a full secure yard where they can run and play, or just sun bathe. I have been dog sitting for years and I've also been a part of a dog rescue where I've seen everything. Each one of our family members deserves love and respect and a little extra when their family is on vacation. It should be a relaxing time for our canine family too! I pride myself on the reaction of my visitors when they come back over and over!!! My schedule allows me to give your family members all the time and attention they could ask for in my home. I never want your furry family to feel like they aren't comfortable and I will engage with them as much or as little as they would like while giving them the space they need if they choose. I have a fully fenced in yard, but no one is out in the yard unattended. I also have the ability to completely separate dogs with separate exits/entrances. All dogs are able to go on couches and dog beds throughout the house and if they need their own space, I have that capability as well. The separated room has it's own tv, couch and is where I spend most of my day working. If your pup(s) is friendly, they are able to keep us company throughout the house. Smoke-free home.
About: I am a Fear Free pet sitter and dog walker. I volunteer at my local animal shelters and foster dogs. I am an advocate for all animals. I am a teacher with summers off which gives me all summer to love on and care for fur babies. I will be available part time during the school year. If doggy day care is what you need, please be advised that anything beyond 9 hours an additional charge will be applied. My home is doggy ready. Although I currently do not have pets of my own since the passing of my dogs, I usually have a foster dog in my home. I have multiple areas to keep your fur babies, so if your baby is not dog friendly, I can accommodate. I have multiple crates of different sizes, a couple of dog beds and if your pet is a couch snuggler, i am happy to oblige. I can/will walk dogs. I have a fenced in area for dogs to run around. If meds need to be given, I can do that as well. A meet and greet will be required.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who would love to welcome your furry family member into my home while you’re away. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet, so my goal is to make their stay comfortable, safe, and full of love. Your pet will be treated like one of my own—with plenty of attention, cuddles, playtime, walks, and companionship. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, favorite activities, and any special instructions that help them feel at home. I have a comfortable, welcoming home and understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. Whether your dog is playful and energetic or prefers curling up on the couch and relaxing, I’ll make sure they get the care and attention they deserve. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages during their stay, because I know you’ll want to see that your pup is happy and having a great time! I would love the opportunity to give your pet a safe, loving home away from home. 🐶❤️ I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I enjoy spending time with animals and can make their needs a priority while they’re in my home. I’m happy to follow their normal routines for meals, walks, playtime, and rest so they feel comfortable and at home. Your pup will be treated like family from the moment they arrive! 🐾 I’ll stick to their usual feeding schedule and make sure they get plenty of walks, playtime, cuddles, and attention throughout the day. And when it’s time to relax or sleep, they’re welcome wherever they’re most comfortable—on their bed, the couch, or right beside me. ❤️ My home is their home while they’re here!
“At the last minute I was scheduled to work a very long day and found Hendry right away. The experience was great! He always kept me updated through out the day and sent many (dope) pictures of my pups. Didn’t worry about them at all. Very nice and informative. I would definitely come back to him again.”

This was Charley’s first time with a sitter and we couldn’t have landed in a better place. Samona kept us up to speed with messages and pictures. He had a ball with his new buds Bear & Bentley. There’s no better feeling than knowing someone will give your pet the same loving care that you would. Would absolutely book again!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Jackson commute.
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.
As of October 2026, there are 2,064 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of NJ. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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 .
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 , 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 .
