“Gabriela took such amazing care of our dog this weekend. She kept us up to date with plenty of pictures and updates the entire time she had Hope. Can’t wait till out next visit to her and her amazing family. Highly recommended sitter. Would absolutely rebook the next time we need someone to take care of Hope. Wonderful sitter and took simply the best care of our dog while we were away.”
“Kaipo loved Scotts home. He was so excited to be there. Nice big yard to run around in and other dogs to play with as well. One of the biggest changes I noticed after Kaipos' stay was that he now returns the ball to me when we play fetch. He would never do that before. Keep away was his favorite game. Took him to dog park and I was throwing the ball for him for nearly an hour. He bought it back every time, dropped it and waited for me to pick it up and throw it again. That was a nice change and I want to thank Scott for fixing that. I had fun.”
About: Hello! I’m a huuuuuge “Dog Person”. :) You can rest assured that your pup will receive tons of attention/care/love from me while you’re away! Long-time dog lover/parent here!! We have used Rover’s services in the past, and it’s time to return the favor. (We are pup-less right now.) The human-dog connection fascinates me. I work from home, but I am not chained to my desk, so I will be able to care for your pup throughout the day. He/she will be safe and secure here in our home. Your pup will be leashed any time we leave the house. We will make any adjustments or accommodations to support your dog’s personality, comfort, or needs. Experienced with all life stages, from puppy to senior.
“They were GREAT with Max . Great communication sent alot of pictures. Max was very well taken care of. I can have a peace of mind knowing that he is with people that care and treat him well. Thank you soo much.”
“Trista and Bill were excellent. My dog usually gets separation anxiety when away from me. But they managed to calm her down and settle down. This was only a short stay - 2 nights. But I expect to use their service again, for longer durations while I plan to do some traveling.”
“Leila was absolutely fantastic with our girl. We got fun updates and felt like she didn’t miss an ounce of love without us. Would not hesitate to book again! Thank you, Leila! ❤️”
“Tammie came through for Me and Bean at the last minute. Her daughters and her accommodated Bean all the while he was there. Tammie is very friendly and personable. I know Bean us in good hands with her and her family. She kept me updated and responded quickly. She sent me pictures of my happy fellow. I couldn't be more pleased with her services.”

I’m home full-time and available 7 days a week, anytime, so I am always here with your pet. They’ll get plenty of potty breaks, love, attention, and care throughout the day.

I communicate well with pet parents to provide plenty of photos and updates during their stay.
“I want to give a huge thank you to Alexander and George for taking such wonderful care King! 🐾❤️ From the very beginning, they made us feel comfortable and at peace knowing King was in good hands. Their kindness, patience, communication, and the pictures they shared meant so much to us. It’s not easy leaving your buddy behind, but they truly made the experience stress-free. We are so grateful for the love and attention they gave King. We would definitely trust them with him again and highly recommend them! Thank you both for everything! ❤️🐶”
“Karina is amazing as a pet sitter. She took beautiful care of Honey and embraced him as her own. She provided everyday updates , took him for walks and really made Honey comfortable. Also, she ensured Honey came to us smelling good and clean. She gifted him few treats as well. I highly recommend Karina for her warmth , kindness and pet care.”
“I had an amazing experience with Alaine as my dog sitter. She was highly responsive, providing daily photos and a detailed "report card" summarizing Brizo's activities and well-being during the four-night stay. Alaine took exceptional care of Brizo, and her own dog, Pasta, was a wonderful host too. I highly recommend Alaine for her attentiveness, communication, and genuine love for animals. Brizo can't wait to visit again soon!”
“I cannot say enough positive things about Abner. He was very communicative from the start and helped ease my anxiety about leaving my dogs with a stranger. Throughout my trip away, he sent photos and updates on both of my babies. My dogs came home happy and I could tell that they were on their own mini vacation over the weekend. Abner was a delight, and I hope to have him take care of my babies again in the future.”
“Ivy was AMAZING with our new pup, Holly. Holly is a very curious pup and gets into things sometimes but she is a sweetheart. Ivy taught Holly the “stay” command and “paw” during her week stay with Ivy. Our Holly LOVED Ivy’s son and got along with their dog, too, which makes me really haopy”
About: I provide a calm, loving, and safe home environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for. I understand that every pet has its own personality, routine, and needs. I work during the week, but I’m happy to dedicate my weekends and holidays to caring for your pets. I enjoy spending time with animals and would love to provide them with a safe, comfortable, and loving environment while you’re away. My home is a calm, clean, and welcoming environment. I have a friendly cat and always prioritize the safety and comfort of every pet. I also have a yard and beautiful walking trails nearby, perfect for outdoor walks on a leash.
“We asked Michael for a HUGE favor of taking our dog for our wedding weekend and bringing him to our ceremony so that he could walk down the aisle. Not only did they do this for us, Michael and his family took incredible care of Dublin throughout the weekend and sent us the most adorable photos and messages so that we did not have to worry about a thing. They are the most ideal sitters a person could ask for - thank you so so much!!!”
“Jillian and Andrew are wonderful doggy hosts! Our Boston Terrier Boo feels right at home with them. We've booked stays with them a few times now and they are the first call we make when we need a sitter for Boo. They've really come through for us and I absolutely recommend them!”
“Paul is excellent! Dunley is a 5-year-old lab/cattle dog with high energy. Paul made sure Dunley got enough exercise, walks, and plenty of fetch. He came back happy. I will definitely use Paul again!”
“Our Havanese, George, stayed with Debra last week. He had a blast! We got daily pictures and videos and he was a very happy and well-exercised dog when we picked him up! The dogs get a lot of love and Debra's house and property are wonderfully set up for their stay. She was very thorough in getting to know George ahead of his visit, making sure she knew his medical history/needs, his habits, his diet, personality etc before he stayed with her. George will definitely be coming back in the future. Would highly recommend!”

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
95% of sitters in Johnsonburg can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Johnsonburg 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 Johnsonburg.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Johnsonburg. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Johnsonburg 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
