“Alyssa and Marcus are the absolute best! Sam always has a wonderful time with them and Zara! They are his second family and the excitement he has when we pull up to their home is unbelievable. It warms my heart every time.”
“Sarah and Anthony were great with Mozzie! I think he likes them better than me now! It's comforting to know that when you drop your dog off, he will be happy and in great hands!”
“Jenny is an amazing dog sitter. I received communication and photos throughout each day. Our Shiba Inu was very well cared for by Jenny and her husband. I would highly recommend Jenny!”
“We continue to trust her with our dog every time we go on away, and she never disappoint! Our dog is always happy, well cared for, and treated like family. The updates and photos give us great peace of mind while we’re away. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter!”
“Kristina was so patient and sweet with Olive, who can be nervous and shy. By day 2, Kristina was sending us pictures of Olive belly up and happily napping next to Kristina on the couch and Olive completely made herself at home. Olive’s stay overlapped with a major heatwave, and Kristina made sure to get Olive out early in the AM for a nice walk each morning before it got too hot. I would definitely recommend Kristina for attentive and loving care for your pet!”
“Nyema took really good care of my furry buddy Corky for a whole week. We did a meet and greet before my scheduled trip. Each day while I was away she sent a picture for me to see he was ok. She was even concerned that he wasn’t drinking any water or eating much the first couple days. After a couple days he adjusted and started to drink and show her his fun personality. He interacted with little ones too and played with them. I was in another state working but was never worried about him being away from me for so many days. I picked him up and he was happy. I’ll definitely use her again.”
About: I’ve owned and cared for cats, dogs, fish, rodents and reptiles for more than 45 years. I would be happy to share the love with your furry (or otherwise) family members too. I currently have a sheepadoodle that loves other dogs and people, so he would love to have a playmate to come and take walks and spend time with us. I currently work from home so I have plenty of freedom to spoil all the pets in my care. I do look after my 3 year old grandson sometimes so getting along with children would be an important quality if your pet should come to stay with me. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly sheepadoodle that gets along with both dogs and cats. We love to go on walks too.
“Rita is a wonderful pet sitter. From the moment I met her I felt that my senior dog was in great hands. We thoroughly discussed his needs and Rita asked some great questions. She put my mind at ease immediately. Rita provided me with updates during my trip and it was very reassuring to know that my old buddy was in good hands. I highly recommend Rita and will definitely use her again!”
“Eric and Raz are our favorite dog sitters. They clearly love and care about our dog and we always feel 100% confident that she is well cared for with them. They give her lots of cuddles and have a good sense of her needs. It’s always a pleasure.”
“Felix was great with my dog nova. They made sure she was comfortable with the other animals in the house and stayed in communication throughout my trip. I have so many great photos from their walks and hanging out in the house. Felix is my first choice when I comes to Philly rovers”
“Amazing sitter. She took such good care of my older dog over the holidays and kept me updated on how he was doing. If I wasn't moving across the country I would definitely book Cindy again.”
“Miles loves spending time with Brian and his family (people and dogs). Brian is communicative, reliable, very easy to work with, and clearly loves animals. He takes excellent care of our dog, and I would absolutely recommend him and trust him with my pets. We're very glad to have found you. Thanks!”
“Amy was so sweet and easy to make arrangements with! It made me feel good when she told me that Bear enjoyed hanging out with her family. Her daily updates and pictures were a treat. I would not hesitate to board Bear at Amy’s again.”
“Tony was incredible! Truly a doggy paradise. Beautiful fenced in yard, doggy door, lots of fun and play for my dog while we were away for the weekend. We had so much great communication from Tony including pictures and videos. Definitely would hire many many more times!”
“Carly is very responsive with all messages. My regular sitter got sick and I needed someone urgently. Carly was clutch. I am planning on dropping Rocky off again at her place in couple of days.”
“My fiancé and I were on a road trip and had to bring our cat with us last minute after she had emergency surgery the week prior to us leaving. We had an event in Philly that we couldn’t bring the cat to, and the hotel we were planning to stay in wouldn’t let us check in early before the event, so we were scrambling to find a last minute in-house pet sitter for her for just a few hours. Alisia was SO speedy with communication, she confirmed our booking within minutes, and she sent photos and videos of our girl while we were gone. She looked very cozy and I felt good knowing she was with someone who was paying good attention to her! We are so appreciative and would definitely use her services again!”
“Tim was great! Friendly demeanor and lives in a wonderful location with quick access to the SRT; our pup was very happy. He came home clean, loved, and well taken care of. We will absolutely reach out to Tim in the future!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Jefferson home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Jefferson.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Jefferson sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. 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.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
