About: Hi there! I’m Diana. I enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m experienced with small to medium sized dogs with different personalities at varying ages from 1yrs-13yrs. I provide attentive, reliable, and compassionate care, including feeding, walking, playtime, and basic grooming. I’m patient, dependable, and treat every pet like my own, making sure they always feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I understand how much your fur babies mean to you, and I’m dedicated to giving them the same care and affection you would Pet care fits naturally into my routine — I love spending time with animals. I’m available for daily or weekly care Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday from 9am–7pm. I provide pet care in my client’s home, ensuring pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m available Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday from 9am–7pm. I am also able to provide overnight care if needed on any of these days
“We had such a great experience with Philsung! It was our first time booking him, and everything went so smoothly. He was super punctual, very friendly, and followed all of our instructions perfectly. He played with our three cats, sent lots of cute photos and updates, and kept everything clean (including scooping the litter). He’s also really easy to communicate with and made us feel totally at ease while we were away. Our cats clearly liked him too! We’ll definitely book with him again next time — highly recommend!”

About: 33 year old looking to earn a little extra money while working remotely full time. I'm a huge dog/animal lover! I always grew up with dogs and helped watch/take care of them. I also helped watch, walk, and take care of friends' dogs, and used to walk for Wag, so I have lots of experience with it. Your dog will get lots of love and attention from me, and all the play time he/she needs. I work remotely, so I am somewhat open for walks! I just cannot commit to anything super consistent. I’m available for more occasional walks or visits I am currently not allowed to bring dogs to my rental apartment. I’m happy to listen to your instructions on caring for them in your home
About: I grew up in a neighborhood that had many dogs, and I would always go over to my neighbors’ houses to play with and take care of their fur babies. I currently have a happy 4 year old schnoodle who goes on walks every day and loves to play fetch. Account is run by Jennie! We are available for day and/or night boarding. I work from home three times a week (schedule is flexible, and my mom stays home on the weekends, so your fur baby will receive around the clock care. 😊 We can take the dog on multiple walks a day and we have a 13 pound friendly and happy Schnoodle to keep your dog entertained
About: I’ve owned dogs since I was a child. We recently lost our baby girl (who was 11.5) and we miss her terribly. I am ready to welcome pets into my home for sitting services where they’ll get safe care, lots of love and great attention. I am excited to start this sitting journey! I currently work from home two days a week and am available to ensure they are cared for throughout the day and overnight. Happy to ensure they get proper walks, play time and outdoor time according to their needs and their parents’ wants. Pets in my home will be able to roam free throughout the home, unless the parent uses crate training. They can hang with me while I work and go on walks throughout the day. I have a fenced in yard for outdoor time as well.
About: Dear parent(s), I thank you for considering me to look after your puppy. In the following short paragraphs you will read a little bit about me and my love for nature. SERVICE: I cater to those parents who need either a "once in a while" (but can be frequent) and/or a "last minute" sitting/walking care. I update my Rover availability based on my regular job's schedule to date to provide you a better service. ME: My love and passion for puppies began at a very young age. Growing up, I was blessed with having at least one dog in the household. During my high school years, I worked at a parrot shop located in Edgewater. There, I cared for baby parrots by handfeeding them their formula, which I prepared myself. I also kept a health chart on many baby parrots. Adults parrots were also present and cared for. My love and respect for animals has only increased through the years. Life has us all working so much that it takes us away from what we would rather do, spend time with our pets. Your dog will be cared for and looked after when you need to attend other matters. I have cared for dogs in the past, small and large (Saint Bernard the largest). I cannot pet sit in my home, but I can come to yours, though most of the time I will be out with him/her. So next time your puppy needs love and care when you need to be elsewhere, book me. I will make sure to fill that void your absence will leave, so the time he/she misses you will be less. Though I love dogs very much, I can be firm when needed. If there are any special requirements, please let me know. A. If your dog is shy, I will make sure he/she is not overwhelmed by other dogs or even humans. B. If he/she is hyper, to avoid kids being frightened. C. Do you prefer that your dog does not visit dog parks, or at least when they are not that busy? etc. I am currently a Real Estate Agent. My main working days are the weekends for open houses. This provides me with the freedom to care for your pet during the week, which is when most doggies are home-alone, but not anymore if I have a say in the matter. Building regulations and lack of space have prevented me from such joy. While I cannot pet sit at my home, I can take your dog outdoors. I try and stay physically active, so your dog will be walking and playing.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have always had a deep love and connection with them. While I don’t currently own a dog, I regularly care for my cousin’s dog here in New Jersey — walking, feeding, and keeping him company. I’m attentive, responsible, and genuinely passionate about animals. Your furry friend will feel right at home with me! I currently work as a secretary from 12pm to 5pm on weekdays, so I’m available for dog walking and drop-in visits in the mornings before noon and after 5pm on weekdays. I have more flexibility on weekends and can accommodate house sitting when needed! Your pet’s safety is my top priority. Since I offer walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully. I’m punctual, communicative, and will send regular photo updates throughout every visit so you always know your pup is happy and safe!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for practically all of my life. My family and friends would ask me to take care of or walk their pets and I’d always be there when they needed. I’m also used to taking care of puppies and kitties and enjoyed it no matter how tiring it may have been. My schedule right now is completely free other than going to school and so I’ll always have time to be able to walk a dog or take care of them. In my clients home if I’m pet sitting I’ll make sure I ask where their food is, where I take their water from and if there’s anything in their house that is specifically for their pet and remember that spot for future uses.
“Valerie is so kind and caring and it is so comforting leaving our puppies with her. It is so clear that she loves dogs and she goes above and beyond to take care of them. She texts updates and answers right away. We will absolutely be using Valerie again and again! Such a great person and great puppy sitter!”


About: I have fostered a 4 month old poodle for 2 months. I’d say I personally have more experience babysitting than pet sitting but that being said, I have a huge heart for nurturing and caring I am currently working a part time job but my work days are only on Thursdays and Fridays in the afternoon so I have a lot of time on my hands! Unfortunately I can not host pet sitting at my home for my land owner doesn’t allow pets inside, but if I were to work at your home, I would act accordingly with respect!
About: What sets me apart is my deep, firsthand experience with feline care and behavior. I first started as a foster parent for a local animal shelter, which is how I met my two sweet cats. Raising them since they were tiny, vulnerable kittens taught me everything about specialized cat care—from reading subtle body language to managing strict feeding schedules and grooming. I also grew up with a spirited Terrier, so I’m highly comfortable with energetic dogs. I regularly pet-sit for my friends' fur babies, and I’m ready to provide a patient, loving, and detail-oriented environment for yours! I currently work, so my schedule is best suited for early morning and evening pet care. I love starting my day with an early walk or check-in, and I am completely free after work to provide dedicated care, feeding, and play. Because I maintain a consistent routine, your pets will always have a reliable and structured schedule with me! Since I only offer drop-in visits and house sitting, my priority is keeping your pets safe and comfortable in their own familiar environment. During each visit, I closely follow your specific instructions for feeding, fresh water, and litter box cleaning. I also make sure your home is completely secure before I leave. You can expect regular photo updates so you always have peace of mind knowing your fur babies and your home are in good hands!
About: While I’ve never had a cat or dog (parental allergies), I’ve always loved them! My neighbors had cats and dogs so growing up I spent a lot of time around them and helped take care of them. I especially enjoy long walks :) I work from home two days a week so my schedule is pretty flexible. I would love to spend my free time with furry friends! Your pets’ safety and comfort are my top priorities! I’ll be attentive to your pets’ needs and ensure they always feel happy, safe, and loved.
“Alec was great! Super reliable and friendly. He took Teddy for a nice walk and spent time playing with him in my backyard. Teddy got tired and even took a nap for Alec. Highly recommend.”

About: I treat every pet as if they were my own. I have 7 years of experience caring for dogs and understand how important trust, consistency, and communication are.

I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing! Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and make time for in my routine.

My goal is to make every pet feel happy, comfortable, and loved while their family is away! 💖 Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities! As both a registered nurse and a dedicated dog owner, I’m responsible, attentive, and detail-oriented. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and preferences so they feel as comfortable as possible. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or a quiet nap, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care, lots of affection, and plenty of updates and photos so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. 🐾❤️
“I booked Hallie to care for Nyla . I was extremely happy with the care and time Hallie spent with Nyla. In the future I will be booking Hallie to dog sit . I highly recommend others to book Hallie. Thank you Jimmy”

About: I've always loved dogs and have experience handling pups of all energy levels and sizes. Being a very active person who spends a lot of time weightlifting, I am more than capable of confidently handling large breeds or strong dogs that love to pull on their walks. I am highly reliable, detail-oriented, and will make sure your furry friend gets the exact care, exercise, and attention they deserve while you are away. I work from home full-time, which gives me a highly flexible schedule to care for your dog any day of the week. I can easily accommodate mid-day potty breaks, afternoon walks, and plenty of playtime without having to leave the house for extended periods. Whether you need reliable weekday coverage or weekend boarding, my routine allows me to provide your pup with consistent, around-the-clock attention and care. I recently bought a house here in the area, providing a very stable and secure home base. When caring for pets in a client's home, I am incredibly respectful of the space, ensuring everything is kept clean and left exactly as I found it. Safety is my absolute top priority, meaning I always double-check that collars and harnesses are secure and that your dog is comfortable and out of harm's way during our time together.
“Sherrie was amazing! She took such great care of our pup during the drop in visit, lots of love, and attention to details. It’s clear she truly cares. Can’t wait to book her again! 🐾”

Leonia pet parents share their Rover experiences
Leta is a life saver for our family! We have two dogs, one is an 8 month old puppy and a 9 year old dachshund with mobility issues and she handles them both with love and care. We trust her implicitly and she treats our pets like they are family-thank you, Leta!

Joseph did a drop-in visit for my dog, Lobster, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. He was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure Lobster was comfortable and well looked after. I appreciated the updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Lobster seemed happy, relaxed, and well cared for when I got home, which says a lot. It's obvious that Joseph has a natural way with dogs and takes his responsibilities seriously. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter, and I would gladly book with him again.

Loretta has been wonderful with my cat, Peach! I’ve booked her almost 10 times now, including for a few last-minute requests, and she’s always been reliable, responsive, and caring. It gives me great peace of mind knowing Peach is in such good hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter! 🐱💕

Wen was just amazing to work with during my family vacation! It was the first long vacation we’ve ever had because we worried about our fur babies. But after met Wen before booking, she was knowledgeable and professional for dog and cat. She send us lot of pictures and comments if needed and always arrived the time we were discussed. We will definitely ask her later to care our fur family! Thank you so much for your work and care. 🙏

While we were away, a heat wave hit and temperatures at home rose into the 90s. Our indoor thermostat was still set for heat, but Valerie noticed the issue, proactively contacted us, and worked with us to switch the AC on. We can’t imagine how miserable our cats would have been without her attentiveness. We’re very grateful for her care and quick thinking!
