“We booked with Sanaz for a long weekend and Ivy adored her! She sent us daily updates and took Ivy on lots of walks. Ivy gets very anxious when we go anywhere without her, and Sanaz was very understanding of her separation anxiety and made her as comfortable as possible. She also was flexible with timing of drop offs and pick ups which was much appreciated!! Thank you so much! (:”

“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!”
“I’ve asked Vera to look after Haru a couple of times, and she treated him with the same love and care as if he were part of her own family. Thanks to her, I was able to travel with complete peace of mind. I’d love to ask for her help again next time, and if anyone nearby is looking for a dog sitter, I highly recommend her.”
“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!”

Reliable, active, and highly recommended”

Jersey City pet parents share their Rover experiences
Nicolle and Rolando were the definition of perfection! Flexible with my last minute booking due to unexpected travel, tons and tons of pictures, amazing communication and I truly felt my fur baby was in the very very best hands! This was a complete win and will be Milky’s go to going forward! So grateful and he had such a good time!!!
Mollie is the absolute best! This is the second time we've booked her and we could not be happier with the service she provides. She really treats your pets like her own and gives you detailed updates and photos. You can tell she truly cares about the animals she takes care of.
Last weekend I was scrambling for a sitter last second due to my previous one cancelling. I was going away all weekend (Thursday-Sunday) In a panic I contacted Chi, and he came to the rescue and provided top notch service and quality. I was sent pictures throughout Toby’s stay of him enjoying their backyard space. Feeding him correctly, constantly updating me, and I could not of been more grateful for such a last second long visit. I would definitely recommend Chi! Thank you so much.
Ahmed and Mike have watched Marcia a few times now and I can confidently leave her with them knowing she is in great care. They treat her with lots of love and keep me updated with plenty of pictures throughout her stay. There is also a big park nearby that Marcia really enjoys when she's visiting. I would highly recommend their services to any dog parent!
We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our pup Gomi this week! Vera was very caring and attentive to Gomi’s needs. Communication was fantastic — frequent photos and videos gave us comfort knowing he was in great hands, and she kept us updated on everything from his eating to his bathroom habits. Gomi came home happy and relaxed, and we’d happily consider booking with her again. Highly recommend!
Christina is amazing! I can’t decide if she loves my dog more or he loves her more. We are so comfortable leaving him with her and know he’s getting the best care but also incredible love and attention. Kody has stayed with Christina twice and we will definitely use her again!
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!
