“Wonderful care! Kept my kitties loved and well cared for. Sweet photos and thorough reports received daily. I was able to fully enjoy my vacation since I knew my cats were in such great hands. Thank you Alexa!”


“Wen is great! This is our second time using her. She's attentive, flexible, and keeps our cat happy while we're away. I found that our cat has gotten much more comfortable being home alone for stretches of time since we started having Wen care for her. And she also proactively helped bring packages inside for us (including some REALLY heavy ones) which I didn't expect & was a nice touch!!”


“Gwin was so helpful with our cat and went the extra mile for us. So grateful for her help and she seems to have a great way with animals. Would definitely recommend.”


“Philsung has been great since day 1! He ensures that he meets all expectations when he is caring for your dog! He makes it a point to bond with your dog and form a solid relationship. My dog is always happy after a walk with him! Plus, he takes pictures of their time together, so you know exactly what happened! Highly recommend!!”


“Figgy was in great hands!! Quick responses and attentive care, thanks! :)”


“Larry took care of our cat while we are away for a vacation and we’re extremely happy with his care and visits! He isincredibly professional, kept all of his words and very communicative. Our cat enjoyed his time together with Larry. We will definitely rebook his service in the future.”


“Emily was amazing with our cats! She sent so many updates and pictures. She made sure to befriend both of them even though one is very shy and she made them so comfortable. We will definitely make sure to book her again because the girls loved their time with her!”


About: Hi there! I’ve always loved animals and am lucky enough to have a cat of my own, Kitty, who has been with me for 6 years! I know how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby, but rest assured, I will love them as if they are my own! Your pet will be in good hands with me and I’m excited for the chance to meet them! Pet care is a priority in my schedule! I am home most of the week and during the day so I’m very flexible on time. I love to stay active so also willing to do frequent walks or play outside with your pet. I have one cat in my home and am very careful with ensuring her safety and health - she is well-maintained and clean (e.g., brushing, cleaning teeth, trimming nails) and spayed. Just let me know if your pet has any specific needs, allergies, or anything in particular to be aware of! I’m someone who loves to take photos of my cat so if you want frequent updates on your pet, I’m happy to do that too!

“Stephanie takes really good care of the puppy and is respectful of the space. She consistently shares messages about the time she spent with the puppy and is a quick responder. Stephanie is amazing!”


About: I have taken care of and played with my own, also neighbors and friends dogs and cats. I am extremely reliable and energetic. I have played with fed, administered medication, walked, brushed, cuddled and had taken pets to be groomed along with showing them unconditional love. I work part time also have a lot of free time and energy to keep your pet company, feed, walk and care for all your pets needs both young and older pets. I can only take care of hypoallergenic dogs in my home because of asthma issues with my spouse. We are a smoke free household as well. I do not have children at home or any other pets so all my focus is on your fur babies. I have a very walkable neighborhood and a fenced in yard. I will make sure I keep your pet safe and comfortable in my home and yours. I am capable of administering any medications if needed. I will send you pictures and updates of my visits if wanted. I am very responsible and take pride in the safety and comfort of your pet.

About: Your baby will receive genuine love and tender care. As a fur mom, I was very concerned about my little girl when I went away. I would want someone to love and care for her they way I would. That is my mission and goal for pet sitting. To love and care for pets so you don't have to worry. Fendi (my Maltese) has crossed the rainbow. I raised her from 8 weeks until she got her wings about a year ago. Her needs were always put before mine. I miss her terribly and have this void in my heart. Fendi is my guardian angel. I know she wants me to rescue, giving and receiving that unconditional love. I plan on rescuing at the end of this upcoming school year:) I currently have a light and flexible schedule. Adhering to schedules and routines is very important for me. I make every effort to accommodate each pet. Ground level home with a fenced in backyard 💯 supervised!!!! Great exercise for energetic dogs while seniors can take it easy. inside, I section off areas with a gate. I own one small crate, if need be

“Jadea, did great with my dog Jax!🐾 He took to her immediately and I can already see we’ll be requesting her services in the future. She followed all of my directions, is communicative and sends pictures 🐾”

“Dana did a great job watching my two dogs! We met in advance of short notice as I was leaving town the next day. While we were gone, she stayed in contact with me and sent pictures and asked about giving treats and wet food. My dogs were very happy and comfortable at my home rather than bordering at the groomers. I definitely would book Dana again.”


“Difficult first visit for my dog, but Allison handled it like a pro and called me right away. We worked together to make my dog happy.”


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: 31 year old female looking to earn a little extra money while working remotely. 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 pretty open for walks! My job and schedule are very flexible so I can work with you to figure out the best times for care. I am currently not allowed to own a dog in my rental, but I've watched friends' dogs here and they have been super comfortable. We also live a few minutes walk from a dog park where they can run and socialize with other neighborhood pets!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since >1, always making sure they’re comfortable, fed, happy and most importantly safe and loved❤️ I understand what to look out for, following a schedule for over 12+ years with my own dog, and specific cues to communicate with them. I am home for more than three days (plus the weekend) due to my hybrid work schedule and able to go out for walks, potty breaks, and even the park when the weather calls for it. I live in an area where parks are all around me and have an access to a clean car. I just finished babysitting a friends dog which encouraged me to sign up on Rover after hearing great experiences with it. My personal chihuahua, Mimi, passed away due to a old age and I feel that babysitting/taking care of my neighborhood dogs is a great way for me to be surrounded by my favorite animals without investing all my time and resources into another dog of my own- at least until the future🤭

About: I’ve grown up with pets all my life and currently have 2 family dogs (since they were puppies). I love taking care of them and enjoy doing fun basic training with them. I am available on weekdays during lunch hour or after 5pm for walks and drop ins. I can also do home stays at your place or mine (I work remote so if you need me for a couple of days, I can make it work)! If you give me instructions on what type of care (crating, basic training, playing, feeding, walking) I can help with that! I can care for them at my home or yours if that’s more comfortable for you!

About: About Me: I’ve had a family dog growing up, and raised my own dog (Pomeranian mix) in college since 2009 who recently crossed the rainbow bridge in February 2025. I now have a new puppy (cavapoo mix) who is 5 months (As Of June 2025) and is dog friendly and attends day care 2x a day. You can view photos and videos of my puppy on instagram @ gommidog . Your dog will be treated as my own! I believe pet sitting shouldn't cost an arm and a leg (which it seems to be the case now a days) and know first-hand how stressful it can be to find a reliable, trustworthy, cost-effective pet sitter. I am offering my services are \not for the $$ but because I genuinely love dogs and think it would be fun for my pup to have a temporary friend in the home! Happy to answer any questions anyone may have. I work remotely 3x a week hence my availability is during the latter end of the week through weekends only. The days I am boarding a dog, I will be home with your pup throughout the day. If your dog cannot be left home alone for MAXIMUM 2 hours, please let me know in advance. I live in a condo that is bi-level, and has a courtyard with grass, and the fort Lee dog park is a quick 5 min walk away! I do have an extra empty room if your puppy does need to be separated for whatever reason. Please note, I have a 5 month old puppy that is currently being potty trained, so your dog must be friendly! Your dog is welcome to sleep on my bed if that’s what is preferred, and being a user of rover myself, I know the importance of frequent updates, so will be sure to send updates throughout the day.
