“This is my second time having Alissa take care of my dogs and she was consistent in feeding them and letting them out. She left very detailed reports while taking care of them. 100% would recommend booking!”

“Kathryn was awesome. She took great care of my geriatric dogs and I never worried about them when she was with them. We have used her about 8 times now and will continue booking her.”
“Cheyenne is our go to sitter for our cat Emmie. We have used her a few times now and are so pleased! She is professional, punctual and has great communication. She is wonderful with Emmie and Emmie adores her. If your looking for a sitter and have peace of mind while your away Cheyenne is definitely the sitter you need. We will hire her again and again.”

“Turin did an amazing job with our cat Noah! For the first time we left him for 10 days and felt a bit uneasy about it, but Turin took great care of him. She sent pictures daily so we always felt comfortable and Noah seems to have taken a quick liking as he was even photographed on her lap! Thanks so much Turin! Highly recommended and whenever we go away again I will be sure to call you.”

“Kimberly was GREAT! I recommend her, she kept us well informed by sending Rover cards and even included pictures. I will definitely be using Kimberlys services again.”

About: Hello! I live in Sussex County, NJ, and have been walking dogs since January 2025 via the Wag app. I am available for drop ins, walks, and pet sitting during the day. Since I have 2 sassy beagle-mixes of my own, I can do overnight stays with some household coordination on my end. I’m currently working part time, so have a flexible schedule! I do my best to only accept bookings where I know I’ll make it not only on time, but a few minutes early. It’s important for me to know what access or limits your pet has in your home, so I like to over communicate with pet parents so I fully understand what makes your pet happy and safe.
“Lucero did a great job taking care of my cat while I was out of town. I also liked Lucero as a person - she is very nice and very reliable. Definitely will come back to her the next time I will need a sitter for my cat! Thank you so much!”
“This was the first time I used Rover or needed a sitter at all. I found Brenda and Francis and communicated shortly and set up a meeting day. Brenda came by and we hit it off. She's an animal lover, very caring and genuine. All throughout my time away, she was always reachable. Went the extra mile with maintaining the space my cats live in. And I even needed her to do some trouble shooting with the cameras in my house ( cats are fun ) . I will definitely be reaching out in the future to have this duo check in on my babies again. Trustworthy, responsible, and caring.”

“Tammie was an absolute lifesaver while I was on vacation! She came three times a day to care for my cat, including administering oral medication, which can be a challenge—but she handled it with total professionalism and care. She was always on time, incredibly communicative, and sent regular updates that really helped me relax while I was away. When our flight was unexpectedly delayed, she didn’t hesitate to make additional last-minute visits to make sure my cat was safe and comfortable. Her flexibility and dedication truly went above and beyond. It’s such a relief to know my pet is in such capable and compassionate hands. I will 100% be booking with Tammie again and can’t recommend her highly enough!”

About: Hi, my name is Natalia. I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. Anyone who knows me is aware of this and they even call me the “animal whisperer”. I am very knowledgeable about all types of animals and currently study biology in college. I have always dreamed of working with animals and hope to pursue a career in animal science. Taking care of animals is a passion of mine and I have one dog and two cats. I look forward to meeting your dog or cat and treating them like my own. I am free almost every week day after 3 but prefer Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. My weekends are usually open as well. If there is any conflicts I will let you know in advance. I have two cats and one dog that get along very well. They constantly are being taken care of and I take my dog Nora out for walks often spending time with her as much as I can. She gets fed twice a day and she loves play time. The cats Griffin and Gracie get their litter box’s cleaned out everyday and completely changed weekly. Griffin and Gracie get fed every day and their clean water replaced whenever dirty. All three love to be near me and many times sleep in bed with me.
About: I have clients that I’ve had for their whole pets lives (12 years), i currently work in dog boarding, and have previous vet assistant experience. During fall/winter I am part time and have a 3 hour break on full work days which makes my schedule very flexible for drop ins I Will make sure to follow all owner instruction to ensure safety of their pets, I’m very cautious and careful while walking any dog. I will also be in communication with owners with any questions or concerns I may have
About: I started a dog walking business at the age of 12. I was trusted by neighbors to take care of their pets in a daily basis. I also provided in home pet sitting as I got a little older and was able to drive. I am now a stay at home mom with a lot of extra time and love to give to your pets! I am currently a stay at home mom to 2 little boys so I am very flexible as far as scheduling and timing goes ! I will treat your pet and home with love and respect. I will respect rules and boundaries set by you and will treat your animals as if they are a part of my own family!
About: I spend a lot of my free time volunteering at a local animal shelter! I have also had 2 German shepherds and 2 cats growing up. I currently work part time, and I don’t work every day. I can easily work around my work schedule to help out with your pups! I will care for your pet in your home. That would be the best for me and your pet! My home is not suitable for pets at the moment.
About: When I was a kid I convinced my mom to let us keep the stray cat that kept coming around, and now, many years later, my family has twice as many animals as people. I've worked in animal rescue, done trap-neuter-release, cared for a colony of feral cats for a decade, and fostered more kittens and adult cats than I can count. I must say hello to ever dog I meet from Teacup Chihuahuas to Great Danes. I created my own hiking group so walking is something I greatly enjoy, and walking with a dog is even better. I can take care of your dogs at your home, walk them in your neighborhood, or I have a comfortable room in my house where they can stay as long as it isn't already occupied by a litter of kittens. Cats are my first love but dogs are a very close second. I am a nature and wildlife photographer so I have gotten to know, to one degree or the other, all of the animals around my home, which, I believe, helps to make me comfortable with all types of pets. I also offer pet portraits! I have experience with all of the usual pets, plus a few unusual ones too. I will take good care of your dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, reptiles, small animals and even tarantulas or insects. I will treat your pets as if they were my own and I will let you know how the visits are going. Your pets will be safe and well cared for with me. I have a regular part time job with a flexible schedule so can be available just about anytime. Let me know what you need and we can work it out. Home visits run about a 1/2 an hour and include, depending upon your pet, a walk, poop scoop, litter box cleaning, feeding, watering and treat dispensing, and pats and cuddles. For boaring I have a lovely room at the back of the house with the windows on 3 sides and cat love hanging out in there and watching the birds. I live on a lake and I will walk your dog along it at least 3 times a day, but usually more. If your dog requires crating that's fine and if they don't that's fine too.

About: I've grown up with dogs of all sizes—from tiny dachshunds to big shepherds—so I’m confident caring for pups with all kinds of personalities. As an avid hiker, I love staying active and always bring a four-legged friend along for the adventure. Whether it’s a slow stroll or a high-energy outing, I make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and exercised. 🐶⛰️ I work full time but start early, so I’m free by mid-afternoon—and I’d love to spend that time working with dogs. I grew up with dogs of all sizes and have a natural comfort around them. Whether it’s a quick walk or some extra playtime, I’ll make sure your pup is well cared for and happy! When caring for someone else’s dog, I’m always cautious and respectful—because I know I’m being trusted with a very important part of their life. I never take that lightly. I use a bright, high-visibility leash and always keep a secure handheld grip to ensure your dog’s safety. I stay fully present on every walk or home visit, constantly observing your dog’s behavior to make sure they’re comfortable, not overwhelmed, and enjoying their time. Your dog’s well-being is my top priority.
