“Bryan made our first experience with Rover extraordinary. He took amazing care of our 2 special need hounds; and I can’t thank him enough for the peace of mind we had leaving them for the weekend.”
“What great guy - Mickey loves Joe”
“Brandon was an awesome sitter for us - he took great care of our 2 dachshunds and our house while we were away. He sent updates and was always responsive, and booking with Brandon was easy. We will definitely ask Brandon to come back next time we need a sitter!”
“My dog LOVES Sheryl! She was so wonderful with our two year old maltipoo. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing Flash was in such great hands. She sent photos and kept me posted with how my dog was doing the whole time. She even had recommendations for me which I really appreciated as a first time dog mom! I have already booked our next house sitting with Sheryl.”
“Rachel was absolutely phenomenal watching our pup while our family went away for 2 weeks. She took him on multiple outings and treated him like he was her own. As she put it, our dog had his own vacation too. It was our first time leaving our dog for such a long time and Rachel put our mind at ease. She sent us pictures and videos throughout our whole vacation. We will only use Rachel to take care of our pup. I would highly recommend her!”
About: I grew up with three family lab / lab mixes and have always been a big dog person. I moved away from home and am missing dog interactions! I would love to have fun play time, couch cuddles, and/or long walks - whatever you and they need. I am in online grad school and have flexible day and nighttime hours for pet care. Additionally, I have flexible and open weekends as needed! Pet safety and health is a priority for me - learned through growing up with my own pups. I am organized, diligent, and timely. I will go above and beyond and follow any and all given instructions.
“Maggie was amazing, very communicative and asked great questions. She took wonderful care of our Golden Retriever. She is trustworthy, mature and genuinely cared about our golden's well being. Maggie sent us photos and kept us updated. She left our home sparkling clean with no worries to come home to. We would absolutely use Maggie again and highly recommend her!”
“Jessica is an awesome pet sitter! Jessica is great with dogs, she kept us updated, and allowed us to have a fantastic time, knowing our dogs and our cat were in such good hands.”
“April was so amazing dog sitting Dusty. She was kind and very helpful, considering Dusty is an older puppy with some ailments and medication needs. She took great care of Dusty and he loved being with April. I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Dublin enjoyed Pam. He loved his long walks, play time and sitting outside watching the world go by (his favorite pastime). Very highly recommended.”
About: I’m a certified animal lover with a fur baby of my own (Henry, 9lb of quiet sweetness) that I’ve been caring for over 10 years. I own a wedding photography business that allows me to work from home 90% of my year. If I am booked on a specific day during your booking, I will let you know ahead of time so you can approve or deny the amount of hours I will be gone for that day (which can be anywhere from a 1-hour session to a full 10-hour wedding). I have experience as a dog owner, but have also spent many of my years dog and cat sitting for my friends and family. I raised and trained my parents puppy, a Bichon Frise Shih Tzu mix who needed lots of care to control his barking and playful nature, now 6 years old and so loving. I’m experience with a range of ages and needs, including puppies and elder animals with special care needs. I love dogs, as you can tell, and have all the time in the world to watch and play with them! I prefer dogs and cats have been handled and are used to being cared for, with no history of lashing out or biting. Whether you need me to cuddle, feed, brush, walk, or play with your pup, I'm your gal. Note: while I take a combo of meds for my dander allergy and have a high tolerance, I ask that any animals/homes with animals with high shedding be appropriately groomed and cleaned before sitting. If I stay in your home, a vacuuming or light cleaning does wonders. If your fur baby is boarded in my home, a bath or deshedding session beforehand is much appreciated. I work from home, so pet care can be a day round activity for me. If I am sitting in your home or doing check ins, I can stay or come by as frequently as needed, given availability based on any events or sessions I have previously booked. I will always communicate with pet parents about the needs for their specific fur baby. I understand all needs are unique, so aside from common sense (walks, feedings, playing), I’ll make sure to tailor their care as needed.
“Alexis did great with our 6 month old puppy. She was prepared and loved her energy. She brought her on walks, fed her, and made sure she got bathroom breaks and lots of play time. We will definitely be using Alexis again!”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats (and hamsters and fish, lol) and have been caring for animals for over 30 years. I’m a part-time teacher and artist ready for side work caring for your fur babies. I love long walks and getting my steps in! I used to be a volunteer dog walker in the city for a rescue organization. I am currently working part time as an artist and teacher, so my availability is pretty flexible. I’m typically available for overnight stays after 8pm. I’m an animal lover and snugger. I’ll gladly send you pictures of your adorable pets and love long (or short) walks and getting my steps in! I’ve cared for kittens/puppies and elderly animals with various health conditions, along with your healthy middle aged fur friends.
“Kristin was great with our 2 dogs. Will definitely reach out again!”
“Karin was fabulous with my dog Marco! She kept me updated the entire time I was gone with photos and messages, and you can tell she treats pets like they’re her own. I will definitely be rebooking :) thank you again Karin!!!”
“JoAnn was wonderful. She was on time and communicated with us while we were out. She provided our Mia with so much loving care. Mia was in great spirits when we arrived home.”
“Melissa was excellent with our old quirky nervous Maltese, who had a very difficult life a while ago. She had a good sense of protecting him, caring for him and giving him space. By the end of the day he was eating out of her hand and playing with her with his favorite toy. We could not have been more pleased.”
“Charlie was great to work with! She was communicative and kind. One of our boys decided to roll in goose poop soon after she arrived, and she took care in cleaning him and his harness/collar while we were away. We were very thankful for her careful attention to our pups!”
About: I have loved dogs all my life. I was ten years old when my family got our first dog (a high energy, very intelligent border collie). Since then, I have had experience with various sizes, breeds and personalities, and delight in becoming their friend and guardian. I also ride horses, which has taught me a whole new level of care, trust and companionship. I grew up in and live in Manasquan, and look forward to meeting your pet! I currently work part time, and my hours are flexible. I have been taking care of various family and friend's dogs for several years, and wanted to cast a wider net with Rover. Caring for your dog is a partnership between me, you and your pet. My career background is in market research, so I am a very good asking questions and observing behaviors. So I'll start by asking lots of questions, getting to know your pet, and putting safety, trust and communication at the forefront of our relationship.
About: Caring for animals is something that brings me so much joy—I love being someone pet parents can count on when they need to be away. It’s important to me that your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. I’m prompt, trustworthy, and will treat your pets like my own. I’ve been caring for pets for over 10 years and share my home with a senior dog and a blind cat, so I’m very comfortable providing gentle, attentive care—especially for animals with special needs or unique routines. Hope to meet you and your best friend soon! While I’m sometimes unavailable for long term, recurring daily visits, I’m often free for holidays and last-minute requests—just reach out anytime with a quick message! I’m available to come to your home and take care of your animals only available to board animals that can get along with my cats and dog.

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Jennifer Berkowitz and the exceptional care she provides as a dog walker. From day one, Jennifer has shown professionalism, reliability, and—most importantly—a genuine love for animals. My dog, Zorro , absolutely adores her and gets excited every time she arrives. Jennifer goes above and beyond, making sure Zorro gets not just exercise, but also attention, affection, and mental stimulation during their walks. She’s punctual, communicative, and always keeps me updated with photos and notes about their time together. It gives me total peace of mind knowing Zorro is in such capable and caring hands. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, I wholeheartedly recommend Jennifer. She’s truly the best!”

“I am very particular about who pet sits my dog, even amongst my own friends and family . I must feel secure that my dog is well taken care of, or my time away is not relaxing. Monica is that person! My dog senses her goodness and is always excited to see her. Monica consistently provides us updates and cares for our dog as if it were her own. You couldn’t ask for a more attentive, responsible person to leave your pet with. I’m so happy we found her. We hit the dog sitting lottery!”

Lake Como pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sheryl did a great job with our three large dogs. All young boys and very mischievous. Her love of animals is demonstrated in her care of them. She rarely left them alone. Took them for long walks. She did a good job of keeping them busy and out of trouble. Right before we left, one of the boys got a hotspot on his chest. Sheryl was awesome at making sure he got his medications both the pills and topical treatments and not letting him scratch! She kept us updated with messages and pictures daily. Overall, if you are looking for someone who takes care of your pet as if it was her very own, you will find it in Sheryl.
April was awesome. She replied quickly, arrived on time for our meet and greet, was extremely attentive to both dogs, and didnt mind dog hair :) I felt confident having April watch both dogs. Its hard enough having a stranger in your house, let alone taking care of your fur babies, but she provided care and was kind and compassionate. I would definitely use April again in the future.
I’m so happy I found Jess! She was responsive, courteous, and communicative. Most importantly, she took great care of my pets. Additionally, my home was neat and tidy when I arrived home. I would absolutely book her again. Thanks!
Maggie was absolutely amazing taking care of my two dogs. Moreover, she is the consummate professions. She was very flexible and accommodating to our needs. I will absolutely use her in the future. Thanks, Maggie, for a great job.
Melissa was wonderful with our babies! Our dog Ruger has terrible separation anxiety. She was so sweet and patient with him, it made us feel so much more relaxed knowing we left him in good hands. It also helps that's she's an awesome communicator, keeping us up to date on how our little ones were doing while we were away from them. We loved working with her. I definitely will be booking her again for our fur babies.
Carlee watched my dogs for a week. I have one dog, a slower-moving senior, and an active hound. I was able to stay in touch with her throughout the week if I needed anything or for updates. She clearly played with and spent time with the dogs. They were well taken care of. I had no issues, and I would be happy to rebook her.
