“This was my first time trying rover and Sydney made the process smooth and stress free. She communicated every step of the way and took great care of Purrcy. I would 100% book again.”

“Dong was so great! He was super responsive and communicative ahead of the booking and during, and took lots of photos during each drop-in. Dong's professionalism made it so much less stressful to leave my <1 yr old cat for a few days - thank you, Dong!”

“My cat has quite a few special needs, and Kobi did a great job making sure he was well taken care of! She sent pictures everyday either playing or hanging out with my cat which was awesome. I highly recommend her for all your cat sitting needs!”


“A fantastic sitter, professional, organized, and thorough. My cats, who are terrified of people, really warmed up to her. And the photos were lovely to see while I was so far away. Thank you so much Jessica!”

“The best dog sitter we could ask for! Franklin absolutely adores them—on days they aren’t scheduled, he literally waits by the door looking for them. That says it all. Reliable, caring, and clearly someone my dog feels safe and happy with. Couldn’t recommend more highly.”

“Olivia was a fantastic sitter for our cats. It took no time at all for them to get accustomed to a new person. I have booked and rebooked her in the past and would have no problem continuing to do so. As an added bonus, she was a great photographer, so I always looked forward to her updates! I couldn’t recommend her enough.”

About: I have had cats and dogs all my life. I currently have a Pittbull and 5 cats at home. I’ve been doing professional pet care since 2022. I’m currently working as a nurse and am looking for some extra income! My schedule is constantly changing but I do my best to update my calendar with my availability as often as possible. I usually know my schedule for work a month in advance. I don’t do overnight house sitting! I treat animals with respect and try to act in a way that respects their space and makes them feel as safe as possible. I will never force interactions between myself and a pet. They deserve clean places to live and top-notch care!
About: I've taken care of dogs most of my life, and learned quite a bit from my vet tech relatives. I'm incredibly patient, attentive and caring. I have a huge soft spot for all animals. I have a ton of experience with smaller breeds of dogs like Yorkies, Pomeranians, Shih Tzus, Chihuahuas, and Maltese. Also fairly experienced with larger breeds like Rottweilers and German Shepherds. I have flexible availability, and can be accommodating of pet owner schedules. I also have some light grooming experience such as bathing and brushing dogs. As well as dressing them. (For those who like to dress their pups in outfits and boots.) I am also willing to go jogging or running with your dog, as it is a fun way to stay in shape! I have open availability and I am flexible! With reasonable advance notice I can most likely be available for any services needed. I have reliable transportation as well. Best of all, I work from home! I live in a dog friendly apartment building that has two dog parks attached. One for large to medium dogs, and a second for small breed dogs.

“I’ve did multiple bookings with Lexis some drop ins and boarding she is absolutely the best sitter ever! She’s so reliable sticks to her word and is very trustworthy! She checked on my pups every day and even went over and beyond for them. I’m so appreciative that I found her on Rover she deserves so much recognition. Her communication skills are excellent she will also tell you what’s going on and send pictures. She’s the sweetest ever thank you again I will definitely book with her every single time.”


About: Years ago, shortly after moving in, I quickly became the neighborhood’s go-to dog sitter after helping friends and neighbors care for their pups — and I loved it so much that I decided to expand to Rover! I have one dog of my own, Goose, who absolutely loves having company and “helping” me watch our furry guests. He’s friendly, well-socialized, and makes visiting dogs feel right at home. Your dog will be treated like part of the family here — with plenty of supervision, playtime, structure, and snuggles. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to feel confident and comfortable when leaving your pet with someone. I work from home, in a job that allows me to set my own schedule/ take ample potty breaks for your pups. We live in a relatively quiet section of Jersey City that allows for easy walks for dogs of all sizes I let dogs have free roam of our home- the same with my dog, Goose. There is ample couch and dog bed space for lounging around with some nice spots for them to sun near the windows. I often bring the work laptop to the couch to allow your dogs to have a lot of daytime human interaction At night, Goose sleeps in our bed, but we either crate/ sleep on the couch with visiting dogs. Toys will be removed unless approved by you. Pets are part of our daily routine. They receive consistent potty breaks, tons of playtime, and affection. I keep a calm, clean environment (no carpet means any accidents are a breeze to clean!) with plenty of check-ins. My dog, Goose, is friendly and well-socialized, and I always ensure introductions are done slowly and safely. I follow your pet’s feeding schedule, medication needs, crate preferences, and any special instructions to keep their routine as normal as possible
About: I provide reliable dog walking, drop-in visits, and in-home pet care. I have experience caring for a cat for 17 years and a Maltese for 2 years, so I understand both long-term care and daily pet needs. I’m calm, patient, and good with all temperaments, and I follow routines carefully to keep pets safe, comfortable, and well cared for while keeping owners updated. Pet care is my full-time focus, allowing me to offer availability seven days a week for dog walking, drop-in visits, and in-home sitting. My flexible schedule enables me to provide dependable care, consistent routines, and personalized attention to each pet’s needs. Please feel free to contact me to discuss availability and scheduling. My focus is to keep pets comfortable and secure by maintaining their normal routine in their own home while carefully following all care instructions, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, medication, and playtime. I also provide regular updates so owners feel confident their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for at all times.
About: Hi! I’m a devoted cat lover with hands-on experience caring for cats of all ages — including seniors. I’m comfortable administering oral and topical medications and always prioritize gentle, low-stress care. I’m also active in local TNR and rescue work, so I have strong experience with shy, anxious, and formerly feral cats. I understand feline behavior and know how to build trust at their pace. You can expect reliable communication, thoughtful updates, and lots of love for your kitty while you’re away. I’ll care for them like they’re my own! I work from home which means I'm able to offer flexible, dependable care. My remote schedule allows me to plan my day around your cat's routine. I can stop by for morning and evening feedings, litter box cleaning, medication (if needed), playtime, and companionship, without rushing between appointments. Since I'm not tied to an office, I'm able to keep visit times consistent and give your cat focused, attentive care. My top priority is keeping your cat's routine as normal and stress-free as possible. Cats thrive on consistency, so I carefully follow your feeding schedule, portion sizes, litter box preferences, play routines, and any special instructions you provide. I make sure fresh water is always available, litter boxes are scooped daily (or more often if needed), and feeding areas are kept clean. I also love spending quality time with each cat, whether that means interactive play, brushing, cuddles, or simply quiet companionship for more reserved kitties. If your cat has medication needs, I’m comfortable administering oral medications, topical treatments, and following detailed care instructions. I monitor behavior, appetite, and overall health during each visit and will immediately communicate any concerns. Beyond pet care, I treat your home with the utmost respect: bringing in mail/packages if requested, watering plants, and ensuring everything is secure when I leave. My goal is for you to return home to a happy, relaxed pet and a home just as you left it.

Lincoln Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jess has cared for Des for several times now, and the trust I have in her is hard to overstate. She is incredibly attentive, thoughtful, and communicative, especially with Des’ occasional GI quirks, and it’s obvious from the way she interacts with him that she genuinely loves and cares for him. I always come home to a happy, relaxed cat and an apartment somehow cleaner than when I left. Having someone I trust this deeply with Des gives me enormous peace of mind when I travel.

Anthony was amazing! I reached out last minute to see if he could take my puppy Ginny out, and he was super responsive and accommodating. He showed up right on time, was great with her, and clearly knows how to handle dogs with care and patience. Ginny came back happy and well taken care of, which gave me so much peace of mind. I really appreciated his flexibility and reliability. I would definitely book him again!
