“Kathleen was amazing. Highly recommend her. Very professional and treated Charlie as if ihe was her own dog. Very knowledgeable and made sure she understood my needs and Charlie’s. She’s the best!”

“Jessica was very attentive and communicated daily. She sent pics of our babies daily and kept us updated. Prior to the stay she came and took notes and met the pets. She is very dedicated to making your pets happy.”

“Our dogs had a great time with Logan over the weekend. He was very pleasant, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. Would definitely recommend him to anyone that needs a dog sitter.”

“I had a great experience with Theresa while I was away for a few days. She was very attentive, reliable, and clearly cared about making sure my pets were comfortable and well taken care of. She kept me updated throughout the stay and sent pictures every day, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while traveling. Communication was excellent, and I could tell my pets were in good hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

“Geri was amazing with our two babies! Very punctual and cared for them at all times,we received pictures day and night. We felt very comfortable having Geri house sitting and taking care of our babies.”

“Cassandra took great care of our pets and house!! The cats (even our incredibly shy one) loved her and our puppy did too. The house was in great shape when we got back home.”

“Manda did an incredible job with both of our dogs and watching the house! We came home to happy pups and a clean house! She did wonderfully with our anxious little girl and our puppy with never ending energy. She sent us pictures everyday and made sure to ask us when she had any questions. She was even flexible with us when my husband had to come home in the middle of the week for a few hours and when one of friends needed to pick something up. We will definitely be using her again if we need a sitter this summer!! Thank you so much Manda!”

About: I've always had a passion for animals in my life, typically having my own. In the past 10 years I've been very serious with working with animal shelters, training, petsitting, and fostering. I have recommendations, references and all of the passion in the world for pets, especially dogs, but very much enjoy all 🥰 I work from home and am readily available and flexible. I take breaks any time necessary. Your pet will have my full attention. I also allow furniture and bed access, if that's allowed by you. I can care at a moments notice. I rarely leave town or am too busy. My rates as per my profile are negotiable especially when there are multiple pets, in which I have had quite a bit of experience. I have a spacious apartment and provide many walks, as well as parks and fulfilling, peaceful walk access. I keep a clean environment and attend to any special needs. I live alone so any pet would just have access to me. I take heed on all needs and wants for your pet. I have supplies, such as toys, leashes, water bowls, etc. I basically provide doggy spa days, as my friends and clients call them. However, I am accustomed to and am happy about housesitting for the fur babies.
“Mackenzie did another successful stay with my sassy cat! She sent pictures all week, and I was constantly relieved knowing that Asher was in good hands. 5 stars, again!”

“Maria did a great job watching Teddy overnight. We had a meet and greet before she spent the night with Teddy. Very responsive and sent several pictures that night and the next day. She can certainly be counted on to take good care of your fur baby.”

“I am so thankful to have found Toni! She eased my anxiety while I traveled out of state and took the best care of my senior dog. Thank you so much for everything!!!”
About: Hi, I’m a dog and I highly recommend my human. He’s the best. Seriously. He gives the best belly rubs, knows exactly how I like my treats, and never forgets my favorite toy. He has professional experience taking care of pups like me and not just the easy ones. He’s worked with puppies who chew everything (including his shoelaces), and senior dogs who need a little extra love, patience, and help getting around including his dog Bobby, who is 13 years old. He’s calm when I’m nervous, fun when I’m full of zoomies, and always makes sure I feel safe and loved when my people are away. I’ve seen him work his magic on other pets too, cats, dogs, you name it. They all seem to like him. (Even the grumpy cat across the street.) So if you’re looking for someone to take care of your furry family member like they’re his own, he’s your human. Trust me. I’d give him four paws up if I could. Caring for animals is something I genuinely love, so it’s a natural part of my day to day life. I structure my schedule around making sure pets get the time, attention, and care they need, whether that’s early morning walks, mid day play sessions, or evening snuggles on the couch. I am a student, which means I’m able to give pets plenty of love and attention throughout the day. Walks, feedings, potty breaks, medication—whatever your pet needs, I can work it into my routine without a problem. I love starting and ending my day with tail wags, purrs, and happy paws. Being around animals helps keep me happy, so pet care isn’t just something I do, it’s something I look forward to every single day. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m coming to your home, my goal is always the same, to make them feel safe, loved, and totally comfortable. In my home, pets have a cozy, pet friendly space to relax, play, and be part of the family. I make sure they have a consistent routine with plenty of potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles. I’m mindful of feeding schedules, any special instructions, and making sure your pet feels right at home. If they have a favorite bed, toy, or blanket, I always encourage bringing it along! In your home, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as normal as possible by having same walk times, same feeding routine, and all the little things that make them feel at ease. I’ll treat your home with care and respect, and make sure you get regular updates and photos so you know your pet is in good hands. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or a walk, I do everything I can to keep tails wagging and stress levels low (for both you and your pet!).
“Cameron was amazing with our kitty Avi. He was communicative, friendly, and she seemed so chill and calm when we got home. Not only that, but our house was so clean that we can tell he really took care of our space. Highly recommend him and we cannot wait to book him again. Thanks Cameron!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for large breeds, including my own Rottweiler, as well as two cats, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve worked with dogs who have allergies, mobility issues, and sensitive backgrounds, so I’m patient, attentive, and focused on keeping pets calm, safe, and comfortable. I’m very active and confident handling dogs of all sizes, including strong or high-energy breeds. Daily care is a big part of my routine, including walks, feeding, playtime, and maintaining consistent schedules. I also have experience preparing specialized meals and following detailed care instructions, including medications when needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect your space and stick closely to your pet’s routine to keep things stress-free. I provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I currently use a scooter for transportation, so I focus on local bookings and do not offer car transport (such as trips to dog parks that require driving). If preferred, I can have my boyfriend assist for extra support—especially helpful for longer stays or multiple pets—but only with your approval. I’m also happy to help with light household tasks during house sitting, such as keeping things tidy, bringing in mail, or basic upkeep. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a key part of my daily and weekly routine. I walk, feed, groom, and play with my dogs every day, making sure they stay happy and healthy. I also prepare homemade meals tailored to their needs, especially because one has allergies and the other has mobility challenges. With my cats, I give them attention and respect their space. I’m organised and committed to providing consistent, loving care for all pets in my life. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow their instructions carefully to maintain the pet’s familiar environment. I make sure to provide companionship, feeding, exercise, and any medication as directed. I communicate regularly with the owner to update them on their pet’s wellbeing and any concerns.
About: Lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for both cats and dogs! I grew up with cats and two Boxers and now have three cats of my own who are my family. I’ve also volunteered as a dog walker with Big Dog Ranch Rescue. Whether it’s walks, potty breaks, cuddle time, or pet sitting while you’re away, I’ll care for your pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. 🐾❤️ As a hospice social worker, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care into my day easily. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, potty breaks, feeding visits, cuddle time, and vacation sitting. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and treating every pet like family. I believe every pet is happiest when their routine stays as normal as possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established schedule for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications (if needed), playtime, and cuddle time. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality and comfort level so they feel safe and cared for while their family is away. For walks and drop in visits, I make sure pets get plenty of exercise, attention, fresh water, and affection. For vacation sitting, I provide companionship and regular updates so owners can have peace of mind. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own. Keeping them happy, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
About: I've always adored animals ever since I was little. Growing up I was surrounded by not only cats and dogs but I also had a bird and chinchilla. From a young age, I was taught the correct ways to care for animals; now I have two dogs of my own. I have experience with watching multiple animals at the same time while providing different care for each animal individually based on what they need. I understand firsthand how important it is to feel comfortable and safe when trusting someone with your animals and I promise that I will provide the best care. I am currently a student at FAU studying a Health Science Major. I'm hoping that I may be able to help someone who may need consistent help during the week with checking on their pets or walks throughout the day. I am open to providing care when needed just let me know and I would love to connect and see if we are a good fit! At home, I have two dogs of my own (a corgi and a Doberman) which makes me the perfect candidate for any sized animal and energy level. I am used to walking them for a minimum of 30 minutes a day and enjoy being active with them as well as hanging out and playing with them. I am diligent about giving updates, sending pictures, and updates. I can assure you that your animals will be in the best care when I am around.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for family, friends, and my own furry friend since I was 11. I’m comfortable with old and young dogs and I ensure that all their needs are met. With me your pets will only get the best attention, excercise, and safest environment. I’m also reliable with communication if you ever need to communicate about scheduling, updates, or special instructions. I’m currently working part time twice a week and will have a lot of time to dedicate to your fur baby’s needs and playtime. I have one friendly dog and live in a gated community in a safe and dog friendly neighborhood. There will be plenty of opportunities for your furry friend to go on walks and rest.

Manalapan pet parents share their Rover experiences
Erika was absolutely amazing with my fur babies. She stayed with them at my apartment for several days. My Lhasa Apso is a subborn pain in the butt that isn’t comfortable with being left with strangers. But Erica won him over!! My other baby is a pug mix with diabetes. She lost her site due to the diabetes as well. She gets insulin injections twice per day along with a couple diff eye drops. It’s crucial that she gets her medication’s at exactly 12 hours apart every single day. She can’t be late and she can’t miss a dosage. She made sure to stay on top of it every single day. She sent me pictures and videos several times a day. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of my babies than Erika. I have been in Florida for 5 1/2 years and I finally found someone to take care of them when I want to leave to see my kids out of state and not feel stressed or worried about their care 💕🙌 I highly recommend

This was our second time using Karren -- this time we had her stay with our pup in our home for 2 nights. Karren was very caring with our dog during thunderstorms and also was very helpful with making sure our home was secure during it. We appreciate her partnership!

Jonathan and Giannina were wonderful with Mister MacDuffin. They were attentive, communicative and it was clear that he was comfortable and happy in their care. This was my first trip away from him using Rover, and they truly put me at ease. I would gladly book with them again for in house sitting, boarding or daycare. Thank you both so much!

Manda is the best!! My kitties always have such a happy and peaceful time with her. One of them is very anxious and he is always calm and happy with her. He even packed himself into her bag last time! lol I highly recommend Manda, she is professional, clean, and dependable. You will always feel at ease when she is caring for your pets.

Jennifer did an amazing job! I came home to a very clean house and my dog and rabbit were very well taken care of. Jennifer sent me a lot of great pictures and updates. Her response rate was also on point. I will definitely use her again. A very great experience, I could tell in her picks my rabbit and our little dog were happy!

I’m very grateful to Kerri, she has taken such great care of my babies, Kira 🐶 and Gianni 🐰. She kept me updated throughout their stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. My pets adore her — she’s so sweet, and it’s clear that she truly loves animals. Without a doubt, I will rely on her again in the future. It’s been a pleasure 🤍🙏🏻 Thank you for taking care of my most precious treasures 🥰🤍🐰🐶
