“Loved having Anastasiia watch my cat, Dimsum. She was great with updates and letting me know how our cat was doing during the stay. Thank you again for everything!”
“My dog was very happy when I picked him up and dropped him off. He is generally very anxious and an older dog so I am always a little wary leaving him behind but I am glad we found Michael and he had a comfortable stay at Michael's house. Michael and his wife were wonderful and always very responsive and flexible with my last minute changes.”
“Siding has been an amazing sitter for my dog! She is super nice and responsive to messages. Sidun sent plenty of photos and cute videos daily to put my mind at ease during my trip. She is very responsible and always makes sure that my dog’s needs are fully met. She was also very flexible with the pick up time. My dog came home smelling great and looking very happy. I will definitely recommend Sidun and book with her again!”
“Patrice and Alex took wonderful care of my dog! They provided lots of updates and cute pictures each day of the stay. Their dog Pepper seems very sweet and the dogs got along well. My dog got lots of love and attention from Alex and Patrice, and it was clear from the photos how comfortable she was in their home. We will definitely be booking with them again!”
“Pooja cared for Annabel for 3 days and 2 nights while I was out of town. She was beyond wonderful and Annabel adores her. Pooja went out of her way to learn everything she could about Annabel so she could ensure Annabel would be comfortable and even came to meet us beforehand. She is affectionate and so considerate toward Annabel, asking me good questions while I was away to ensure her health and comfort. She let Annabel sleep with her and moved her set up around so that Annabel, who has arthritis, wouldn’t have to jump up and down. I was super pleased with her photos checkins and updates. We both adore Pooja and will 💯 be booking her again. Thank you, Pooja! ❤️ 🐾”
“I say without hesitation my expectations were exceeded in all respects. It is heartening to know there are caring people that provide this thoughtful service.”
“Yunie was a great sitter! She is a good listener, followed instructions well, and was very friendly. I was in a rush in my drop off and pickup due to needing to catch a flight and she was reliable with meeting on time which was very helpful.”
About: I'm a extremely nuturing individual and have had the immense pleasure of caring for pets kittens to seniors/puppies to seniors for over 25 years. I'm very hands on and i very meticulously make sure they are both comforted as well as comfortable. You will find no one more skilled in being your pets caregiver. I'm currently not working! So I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups/kittens! I'm available for boarding weekdays all day. And weekends after 3. I can take your pups to a dog park and play as I do not have a fenced yard. Also I have a play room for kitty.
“We were traveling and needed someone to take care of our dog because our friend had an emergency. She picked up our dog and took very good care of him. I was surprised to find someone so reliable so close to my house. I will definitely leave my pet in her care whenever I need to in the future ❤️🥹”
“Adam watched our 10 month old puppy for about a week while we were out of town, and he did an awesome job. I got so many pictures and videos the whole time. His dog Hermes gets on great with my puppy, they were playing together the whole time! We did a meet and greet before booking him to make sure that the dogs got along well together too. We needed our dog to only eat the food we brought due to allergy concerns, and Adam fed them in separate rooms which worked well. We got back a tired, happy puppy.”
“Tallin was a truly wonderful dogsitter! I've left my dog with very few sitters before, so I was a bit anxious about leaving him with a stranger, but Tallin put me right at ease with twice-daily updates and lots of photos. I will absolutely try to book with her again next time I need a sitter!”
“Kris and Kylie were absolutely incredible with Rue! During her 9 days with them, they made sure she got plenty of exercise with long daily walks and playtime at the park, and even a fun adventure upstate. They treated her to a spa day at the end of her stay, which was such a thoughtful touch. It was obvious how much care, attention, and love they gave her. We can’t recommend them enough and would trust them with Rue again in a heartbeat!”
“Sherry and Walter are just amazing ! They took really good care of our Luna , sending us pictures and updates on a daily basis Sherry’s pictures are professional level We would use them as our cat sitters in a heartbeat Thank you again”
“This was the second time my Noodles spent time with John. He came home super calm, happy and tired which is so unusual for this energetic puppy. Thank you so much!”
“Luna has stayed several times with Junaid and Tina, and always has the best time! They shared multiple pictures/videos throughout the day from walks and playtime, and she is always having a blast! Can’t recommend enough”
“Elizabeth was incredibly communicative throughout the entire week we were away. She sent daily photos and updates, and it was clear that Edison was very well cared for. We’re so grateful to have found someone we feel completely comfortable leaving him with during longer trips!”
Jersey City pet parents share their Rover experiences
Rochelle was wonderful with my very active 9m old kitten. He settled in quickly, and I felt confident he was being well cared for from day one. She sent daily photos and updates, which made being away from him so much easier. I was able to relax and enjoy my trip knowing he was safe, happy, and getting lots of attention. I would absolutely book with her again.
As the 1st time we’ve used Rover, Clara made it easy and put us at ease. We travel in an RV and need to leave our pup occasionally when we have long days out or a very busy few days. Clara communicated with us well before we left our dog and then sent great photos having a great time with her, which was so fun to receive. Thank you so much!
Our dog Brussel Sprout loved staying with Zoe! Zoe is so sweet and took such good care of him while we were away! He had so much fun playing, taking walks, and getting so much attention. We loved having Zoe as our Rover, she was so flexible when we had to change our dates and great with communication! We are very thankful!
Ziyao and her mom took wonderful care of Poke and treated him like family during his stay. They kept us updated with plenty of photos and videos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Poke received lots of love, attention, and care. Would highly recommend Ziyao to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!
Excellent service and beyond our expectations! Mr. Chi took amazing care of our dog for 11 days and made him feel completely at home. We loved receiving lots of picture updates throughout the day, and it gave us so much peace of mind while we were on vacation. What we appreciated most was how he kept our dog on his normal routine while also letting him enjoy the company of the other dogs. Mr. Chi gave him so much attention, care, and even extra healthy food choices. The space was very clean, spacious, and perfect for dogs. This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Definitely worth coming back to. Highly recommended!
Grace was amazing with Joey! He was clearly happy and well cared for. We loved receiving lots of photos and videos of him having a great time. We also had to unexpectedly extend our booking, and Grace was incredibly helpful and accommodating. We’re very grateful for her care and would highly recommend her!
Christina was AMAZING! She took great care of our baby especially administering his medicine. She sent pictures and updates the entire time. She made sure he was loved and cuddled as well. I could tell Olly fell in love with her during his stay. Highly highly recommend Christina!! Will be using her again in the future ❤️
Nicolle and Ronaldo were AMAZING to work with. Melo was so happy and excited the entire time he was with them. They kept us well informed with countless videos and pictures throughout his stay. I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone in need of trusted care for your furry loved one!! I can't say enough positive things about my experience working with them.
Literally the best dog sitter, I can’t imagine anyone ever measuring up to her. She really treated my dog like her own and he loved it there so much he was sad to leave her. It was my first time leaving my dog with someone so I had lots of separation anxiety, but Amanda sent me so many photos and videos that I was able to get through the weekend and she constantly provided updates about when he ate and when he went to the potty and all the adorable things he did in between. She was so patient and understanding when he had an accident and is incredibly experienced in caring for dogs. She was so attuned to his needs I can’t say enough good things about this amazing experience we had with her. He felt so safe and comfortable and she gave him so much love and attention and cuddles. It felt so good to have someone care for my dog the way I would
