About: I've had 4 dogs over my life: 2 Huskies and 2 English Bulldogs. I've had my first English Bulldog from puppyhood into his senior years and have lived with 2 young, active breed dogs. I have experience caring for dogs in all stages of life, and I am ready to take care of your friend! As a recent college graduate working part-time, I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I am available Monday through Friday from 6 am to 8 am and 6 pm to 11 pm. I am also available on Saturdays and Sundays all day! I am adamant about following your dog's existing routine, no matter how loose or strict it is, to ensure your pet's comfort and happiness! I am comfortable walking dogs of all sizes and for as long as their activity level requires!
About: Growing up with dogs, I’ve always had a special love for animals and the unique personalities they bring into our lives. I’m a proud dog dad to my 8-year-old German Shepherd, Nala, who is truly my world. ❤️ Caring for her has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and treating every dog like family. I’ll bring that same love and attention to your pup, making sure every walk is safe, enjoyable, and filled with care. 🐾 I’m currently a full-time employee and college student, but I make time in my weekly schedule for something I genuinely love: spending time with dogs. I have flexibility on my days off and am happy to coordinate with pet parents in advance to find a schedule that works best for everyone. My goal is to provide reliable, consistent care while making sure your pup gets the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. Safety and trust are always my top priorities when caring for pets. As a dog owner myself, I understand the importance of following each pet's routine, respecting their needs, and making sure they feel comfortable and secure. My apartment complex has a dedicated dog park, and I enjoy going on weekly hikes with my German Shepherd, Nala, so I'm experienced with keeping dogs active and engaged. Whether we're going for a neighborhood walk or exploring the outdoors, I’ll always prioritize your dog's safety, comfort, and well-being.
About: Hi, I’m Danielle! I’ve been the proud owner of a chocolate cockapoo, Hershey, for 11+ years now. Although I’m very familiar with mixed breeds as a result of owning one myself, I adore dogs of all breeds and sizes. I can’t wait to meet and play with your dog soon! I’m currently working at home with a flexible schedule. I’ve always been a dog-lover and hope to integrate more dog walking and pet sitting into my weekly routine. I’m very familiar with all sorts of pet care, from dog walking to pet sitting. I frequently take my own dog on long walks/hikes, to vet/grooming visits, and more!
“This is the second time Emily has petsit for my 2 cats. As always she was amazing. My first experience was back in February when I had to go on an extended work trip for 10 days. Emily was amazing and my 2 cats warmed right up to her. She took such great care of them. She went above and beyond even making it to take care of them during the blizzard. I cannot recommend Emily enough. She will love your pets like they are her own making sure their needs are met while giving lots of play time and cuddles. She even got my extremely timid cat to take her medicine twice a day- an amazing feat!! Her updates and communication were thorough and put me at ease while I was away. I highly recommend her to everyone in the area and will be booking her for my future pet sitting needs.”
“Debra is great! She was very caring and took good care of my fur baby. I felt comfortable leaving her in charge. Thank you Debra! I look forward to you taking care of Shadow in the future.”
“Sofia has been terrific as our drop-in sitter, coming to our house to hang with our dogs while we are at work or running errands. Always reliable and quick to respond and the dogs have a blast and jump for joy when she visits!”
About: I’ve been a pet owner since the age of 12 and have had the privilege to care for cats from newborns, rescues and seniors. I am currently volunteering at Friends of Linden Animal Shelter, where I provide care and support animals as they wait to be adopted into loving homes. I am passionate about animal welfare and with my background in Social Work am aware of how our pets play a role in the family dynamic. Looking forward to servicing every pet as if they are my own. My current work schedule allows me to care for your pups and kitties on weekdays after 6pm. I'm available for boarding on weekends. I am flexible to discuss availability to meet your pets needs. I provide attentive care while pets remain in the comfort of their own home and routine. Care includes feeding, fresh water, walks and playtime, litter box or waste cleanup. I provide updates via messages and photos to help ensure peace for owners while they are away.
About: Cant think of time where I haven’t been around a dog. Growing up there was always dogs in the house. It comes easy to me. For my 2 dogs it starts at 345am with their first walk before I head to the gym. There 2nd walk comes at 8am before I start work then again at 2pm for a quick lunch break and their last 2 walks come at 5 and 930pm before settling down for the night. In between all the walking they’ll get breakfast and dinner and some naps. Meet and greet is important along with getting to know the pets needs and routines. Along with likes and dislikes. Knowing what the pet parents wants and expects from visits or boarding.

“Alissa was amazing with our diabetic cat, Pacha! We were incredibly nervous leaving her for the first time since her diabetes diagnosis, but Alissa immediately put us at ease. She was always on time, gave Pacha her food and insulin exactly as instructed, and sent wonderful updates and photos after every visit. Pacha is usually anxious, but she clearly loved Alissa (especially the catnip!). We’re so grateful for the excellent care and would absolutely book with her again.”
About: Since 2022, I been blessed by caring for over 300 doggies of all sizes, and breeds. Wonderful dog loving parents, emergent, seniors, 100 lb puppy. Cast of characters . It is a my true passion. No contagious events 🙏 never would my ego overthink your instructions as it pertains to your loved one. You give discipline day-to-day, and know I’m here 24/7. It’s been such a lift in my spirit since 2023. No dog whisper, just grew up as most, w my pet. When I see, and owners agree, meeting doggies they have been with, it a dog friendship craving as mush as humans. It’s an honest business bc your dog, upon return will let you know how it went, lol. Currently, 56 year old male, retired. I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I have 2 loving dogs- Abbey & Blu (pomeranian/ Pomsky) around the 2 years old range. Well trained play safe doggies. I am home, and available all day for your loved one. No crates, alone time, or unsupervised is my guaranteed when booking. Honestly, I have always preferred the company of dogs over humans 🙂. And in my retirement years, i have dedicated my time to caring, and protecting all/ any kind of canine. What is included w bookingmy dog day care from others is 1) private dog friendly community. Safe, isolated, and private dog park area. Gated, pet safe, and walking distance from my residence. In these times, keeping your doggie away from public parks may be your preference 2) I can offer social, safe, healthy play time environment, or complete isolation, based your doggie needs. Would love to meet you and your loved one soon. Respectfully- Robert from Springfield, NJ. Currently -retired mental health practitioner. Therapist over 25 years. I am available weekdays & weekends all morning-night if needed. Your dog will never be left alone. Ive been on Rover since 3/2023 . Also, live in pet friendly community w private fenced dog 🐕 park. I offer many services for small- medium-large size dogs of all breeds. It depends on the doggie. The pet owner is also a customer. The customer is always right. I will depend on their wishes on everything from diet, exercise, walks, off-leash (fenced areas), and socialability. I have ability to private play (i call them red collar doggies) your loved one if it is in pet/pet owners best interest. Strength of my work is my dog friendly community, my own 2 little guys (combined 21 lbs) and developing/ improving on your doggie social world through play skills, w age not always being determining factor.
About: I grew up in a house with lots of pets, both cats and dogs. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to look in on and take care of their beloved pets since I was a teenager. I know what it means to love an animal as your own, and I promise to treat your fur baby or babies with the same love I show my own. I work full time, Monday to Friday, 9-5. I'm available to stop by before and after work, as well as midday (I work in downtown Westfield and can pop out on my lunch as I please). Weekends are generally pretty free. I always make sure they are fed and watered on time, according to their schedules. I make sure they have plenty of toys for solo play when I have to be away. I always make sure all doors to off limits areas are closed when leaving the house.
About: I have hands‑on experience caring for dogs both as an owner and through my work at a pet daycare. I’m skilled in providing daily essentials such as feeding, fresh water, medication administration, and structured walks. I also support general training by reinforcing good habits, maintaining routines, and creating a positive, engaging environment. My calm, reliable approach helps dogs feel secure, stimulated, and well‑cared‑for in any setting. I build their care into the natural rhythm of my day. Before school, I handle feeding, fresh water, and a quick walk or check‑in, and after work I have plenty of time for exercise, training, and attention. Weekends give me longer stretches for enrichment and bonding, so they get steady care throughout the week. I keep pets safe by maintaining a clean, secure environment and following their specific routines and care instructions. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep pets comfortable by sticking to familiar rules and daily habits. In my own home, I provide supervised play, proper enrichment, and a calm atmosphere so pets feel relaxed and well‑cared‑for.
About: I love animals and have experience working with and sitting for a wide range of them, including dogs, cats, and small or exotic animals. I myself have owned over twenty parrots (currently have two in the aviary!) and have extensive experience with fishkeeping — I have four cycled, walstad fish and shrimp tanks! I can walk your dog, clean your cat’s litter box, and even do water changes for your fish if needed! Anything to make sure your little guys are well cared for! I’m a graduate student who will be free over the summer, so my schedule is flexible until late August. I can make myself and my home available as needed. I live in a townhome that features a large, lush, and open neighborhood to walk your dogs in. My home has two floors; the first floor is where your pet will stay. When your pet is in my home, they are treated like members of my family. They will be fed, walked, and enriched on your schedule, and will be allowed to sit on the couch and even sleep in my bed at nights if comfortable. I take great care to ensure that your pet’s stay is comfortable and fun-filled. In my home, I currently have two budgies in a large cage and two betta fish, each in 5-10 gallon tanks. The parrots are allowed to free fly for most of the day, but they will be put away or kept caged when your pets are being boarded. When I am in your home, I cultivate the utmost respect. I try not to disturb or move anything that’s not necessary. I’ll make use of only what’s given to me with regards to caring for your pet, and leave everything else exactly how I found it.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kenilworth
Shannon was WONDERFUL and we highly recommend her! We had a 'meet & greet' a few days prior and she was thorough, professional and so good with our dogs. She is so caring and we rested easy knowing our dogs were in her care while we were away. She was also an excellent communicator, followed all instructions for the dogs and was one of the best dog sitters we've ever had. We are very happy that we found her and our pups are, too!
We have used Rover every summer to find a pet sitter for our dog Luna. Luna is a Lagotto Romagnolo. No, you've prob never seen one but they look like a doodle. They are a tough temperamental bread. Luna is especially tough because she learned that outside humans are bad.... Thanks COVID. Luna does not like anyone but me (she tolerates the rest of the family. Georgianna clearly has a gift with dogs! Every picture she sent us of Luna showed a happy and content pup. There were no accidents in the house for the entire 8 days away! When we came home, Luna was relaxed and happy. This is not to say that our other sitters weren't good, buy Georgianna is a pro! I am hoping she will be Luna's sitter for the rest of our lives!!!! 5 stars. HIGHLY recommend!
It is our second time booking with Sara and we feel so lucky to have found her. She is wonderful with our pup, she updates and submits a card at each visit and sends us lots of pictures. We came home to a happy puppy! We highly recommend Sara! Don't hesitate, she is the very best!
Kethely is such a sweetheart and was amazing with our baby pomsky! She was such a big help when we needed someone for drop in visits while on vacation. She always sends daily videos and pictures so that we were constantly updated on how our puppy was doing, and it gave us peace of mind knowing the good care our fur baby was in. We would definitely rebook with her and highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable caring pet sitter!
Kerry Ann helped us out with drop in visits while we were away for our senior dog. Kerry Ann was prompt, arriving when we agreed upon, staying the full drop in time length and keeping us informed with detailed Rover cards. My dog is a bit shy and slower at his age. Kerry Ann took her time with him and made him feel comfortable and also followed all instructions we left. I would highly recommend her. She seems to really love dogs in general which is a plus when you are leaving your beloved pet in their care.
Christine did a wonderful job with our 11 yr old dog, who took to her right away when they first met. She sent us photos, fed him each meal. We were impressed with her honesty when she came in to feed him but had to leave quickly, and she returned later at night to stay with him. We certainly recommend Christine. She took care of our dog and gave us a peace of mind. Thank you.
Veronica took care of our dog while we went to Paris. We ended up getting stuck in Paris two extra days because of the blizzard that hit the northeast. Veronica took our dog to her place so she could make sure she was okay during the storm. She went far beyond what we expected of her. I cannot recommend her enough. Your pet will be in excellent hands with Veronica!
Again, I cannot recommend Emma enough as a sitter for our two dogs. She always shows great concern for them, pays close attention to every detail, and keeps us consistently informed of their status with photos and updates. We have complete confidence with our dogs in Emma's care

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Kenilworth is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $37 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Kenilworth choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
