“Jordyn did a great job caring for my westie in my home while I was away for a week. She sent updates and pictures. He was well cared for. When I returned home, Jordyn made sure everything was in perfect order! Linus misses her already! We’ll be calling Jordyn again! I highly recommend her!”
“Dani is an exceptional Rover associate. We engaged her for a week of overnight sitting, our first time ever having an overnight house sitter in our home. We had Dani take my girls out a few times before our week away for everyone to get to know one another. The week went super smoothly- the perfect amount of communication and photos. Everything was perfect when we returned home - happy dogs, well-watered plants and a cared for home. Thank you to Dani and to Rover for allowing us a week away without worry!”
About: I have had 2 small dogs for about 14 years now that I have loved and cared for since they were puppies. I volunteered at a local animal shelter in the cattery and kitten nursery where I cleaned cages, fed, and comforted the cats and kittens. I have also fostered 3 kittens until they found their forever homes. I have been taking care of many friends and families pets over the past few years and would love to help others as well now! I have a very flexible full time work from home career that I can do from anywhere so I can stay home with your pets and care for them throughout the day. I am open to doing whatever is needed or requested. I can be accommodating to make sure clients are happy and pets are well cared for.
“So fortunate to have found Olivia. She is the BEST!! She has kept me updated on Buzz throughout the weekend with texts, pictures and even videos. I have already asked her to stay with him again. There is nothing she could have done better and deserved a 5+++ star rating.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 7 years old. I love all animals and enjoy spending time with my furry friends. My mom likes to say I’m somewhat of a dog whisperer😂 I am home for the summer and available everyday. I work at the Florham Park Day-camp throughout the week. Hours are: 8:00 am - 3:00 pm I love to go on long walks with my own dog Ollie. Along with keeping well fed and happy. Im sure he would enjoy some company on his walks! Im prepared to care for any of your pet’s needs.
About: I started dog sitting when I was in high school and have loved it ever since. Being away from my own animals while at school, I was constantly taking care of friend’s dogs and even volunteering at a local animal shelter. I just graduated from Quinnipiac University, and am taking some time off from school before applying to graduate school. While being in the process of applying to different healthcare positions, I want to spend time caring for animals as I have started considering veterinary school. I’m very active and enjoy spending time outside, and will make sure your pet stays active while you are away. My family dog, Cody, gets very lonely when everyone is away at work and school so I will make sure that your pet gets all the love they require!
About: I have been proud to be a shih tzu owner for 3 years with my family. I have also been pet sitting and walking since I was 12 I walk and feed my dog on a daily basis. I also play with him during my free time and weather permitting, take him to the dog park I currently live in an apartment while occasionally staying at my parents house. I make sure to give them the care they need and show them how much they are loved.
“Luis did a great job looking after our two dogs. He was responsive and clear with communication, and was sensitive in meeting the needs of our dogs. We would happily use his services again.”
About: I've had dogs all my life, the most recently i had a awesome miniature poodle who I was fortunate to love and care for 17 years, so I am familiar with the needs of senior dogs. My schedule is fairly open every day after about 9 or ten am. I'd like a regular opportunity, but one offs will be good as well I am available for pet sitting at the clients home, but due to younger kids I can accommodate pets at my home. Walking and feeding and playing is ideal
“Lauren did a fantastic job. She was wonderful with my dog and took her on many walks. She went above and beyond when my cats knocked over a plant and the pot broke. Thanks Lauren”
“Grace watched our senior pup for a week. He is very boring to watch - he just likes to sleep and hang out (no walks or play - too old for that nonsense anymore lol) Jett is very particular who he likes and he was lying next to Grace by the end of the week! WOW! We are so happy with Grace - always kept us updated on our little guy and was reliable and took care of Jett perfectly! Highly recommend, Grace to watch your babies!”
About: For the past ten years, I’ve dedicated myself to providing professional, high-quality pet care, specifically focusing on dog walking/sitting. Over the last decade, I haven’t just walked dogs—I’ve managed schedules, built deep trust with clients, and mastered the art of understanding animal behavior and safety. Whether navigating the logistics of running a busy daily schedule or ensuring that every dog in my care receives personalized attention and exercise, I treat the responsibility with the highest level of professionalism. Ten years in this industry has taught me incredible time management, adaptability, and how to deliver exceptional, reliable service that keeps clients coming back Im my own boss! I work my own hours and will schedule according to YOUR needs!! Early mornings, mid day or late nights… whatever works for you! Animals will be kept at close distance and leashed. I have my own transportation (if needed). When I am with the pet my attention is completely focused on them!
“Shandy is a trusted house & pet sitter. We have had Shandy pet sit for us several times. She is reliable, communicative, ask questions if I don’t provide clarity, and our pets love her. We appreciate her!”
“We could not be more grateful for Raechel’s flexibility and communication the last week as we navigated finding pet care for a last-minute funeral. We returned home to a spotless house and happy, well cared for pets - with the TV turned on to one of their favorite programs, a detail that made us so happy. We will absolutely be booking with Raechel again!”
About: Hello, I go by V. I am currently looking for a full time job and am walking dogs in the interim. My schedule is a bit full at the moment, so I cannot take on new clients that need services daily. An animal’s wellbeing is my highest priority when they are in my care. I take them out every couple hours if they are antsy and am happy to play, cuddle, and give them my attention. Ultimately, I just love to see tails wagging :) Right now, I am doing pet care full time. Weekday afternoons are all booked up, but I have some available time slots in the mornings and evenings. Weekends I have most of the day open. Please message me with any questions. While my dog Frosty is very gentle with humans, he is not friendly towards other dogs, so I am unable to host animals in my own home. I can take out your pets for frequent walks or keep them entertained inside, whichever you prefer. My only caveat is that I am asthmatic so I have trouble keeping up with a dog that requires a lot of running or walks around a hilly neighborhood.
About: The main thing that sets me apart from other sitter’s is my genuine love and affection for animals & the fact I’m a dog mom helps me understand what other pet parents would need to feel secure and confident when it comes to trusting someone with their pets. In fact, nearly every dog Ive watched Ive gotten close with the owners and family and have been trusted and recommended by many. I would definitely enjoy taking care of your pet as well as loving them and treating them as my own for the time being they stay with me! Hope to meet them soon! I recently resigned from my two jobs leaving more availability in my schedule for what I love the most, which is watching and loving your fur baby! I have a big backyard for the dogs to run freely and play and use the bathroom in if they are house trained they are free to sleep at the foot of my bed in my room. I have a schedule where I feed my pup 3x a day but I’m definitely willing to make any adjustments for your doggy! Even if I have to take them out for a walk more often or feed them more often it’s not an issue whatsoever! I work from home full-time so im always nearby for anything when i have pups in my care. I under That sometimes dogs with anxiety can often find themselves getting into mischief when left alone too long. I have a gated backyard and all fuzzy babies stay in my bedroom when it’s bedtime so I can keep an eye on them at all times. If your doggy has any specific needs or care plan please let me know I’m always happy to hear how I can make their stay enjoyable. If you suspect that your dog may have separation anxiety please let me know so that way i can know to keep them extra close and adjust to them and their needs.

Madison pet parents share their Rover experiences
Emily took care of my 2 dogs for a long weekend. She was so great, responsible, and trustworthy! She stayed at our house and took such great care of our dogs. She hung out with them A LOT, which I really appreciated. She kept me updated with messages and photos as well. I loved not having to worry about my dogs while away on vacation because I knew they were in great hands. She also left my house exactly like it was when we left! Would DEF use Emily again!
Olivia was truly wonderful!! She took such good care of my little girl, and was simply delightful to work with! She was extremely communicative and sent lots of pics! Can’t say enough good things about the whole experience!! Will definitely use Olivia next time we go out of town!
Natalie took great care of our dog while we were away! Our dog is very shy and she was so good with him. She sent updates often that made me feel at ease. She left our house very clean and just as we left it. I can tell he really enjoyed spending time with Natalie. We will definitely book with her again!
Our dog can be slow to warm up to new people and is often a bit withdrawn when we leave her with sitters, but she took to Jodi right away. We only had Jodi for a short weekend. She took Piper for 2 walks, despite the brewing nor'easter, and Piper had fun with her.
