“This is our 2nd time using Jonathan. We had a vet emergency 1 hr before our flight, and he came to the vet office, picked up meds, and administered them while we were away. Incredibly kind and responsible person!”
“Taylor was absolutely wonderful with our new puppy, Cooper. We were so worried about having to be away from him, but Taylor kept us updated on everything Cooper was doing. She bonded with him so well and even worked with him on playing fetch and training him to "drop it" We absolutely recommend her! Thanks so much, Taylor!”

Whether it's a walk, overnight stay, or drop-in visit, I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own.

About: I have experience with all kinds of animals including dogs, cats, birds, and rabbits! I’ve worked for 5 years in a clinic supporting a veterinary team providing treatment and wellness to all types of animals. In 5 years I learned how to read an animal’s body language and how to engage with all kinds of temperaments. I have previously worked in a kennel where I maintained the health and wellbeing of boarding animals with scheduled feeding, medication, and exercise. I’ve worked with non profits like the United States Humane Society working in a high volume setting providing medical care to numerous dogs and cats while advocating for animal welfare and wellness. I’m available for walks and house visits. I’m also available to provide daily feedings in the early mornings or the evenings 7 days a week if needed. My love and dedication to animals is one of the reasons I pursued this opportunity. I have had numerous experiences working with a variety of animals in different environments which makes me a great candidate to be entrusted with your pet! I’m always aware of my surroundings especially when working with animals in an unknown environment. I ensure your fur babies are safe and secured at all times with me.

If you have any questions feel free to reach out! I'm only working part-time so I have lots of time to spend with your doggies! I'm available most days, just reach out and we can chat on what works best for you. :) When I go to your home, I can guarantee I will treat your dog with the utmost respect, and spend time and care for your pet as if they were my own.
“We used Lenny to take care of DJ over the Fourth of July, and we truly could not have asked for better care. During a thunderstorm, the power went out, and Lenny went above and beyond by bringing DJ a fan and a lantern so he wouldn’t be hot or left in the dark. Lenny was also looking out for us in every way possible. Our Jeep was parked under a tree that looked like it might fall during the storm, and she immediately called us to ask if we wanted her to move it to a safer spot. Knowing that someone cared for both DJ and our home as if they were her own gave us complete peace of mind. Lenny is reliable, thoughtful, and incredibly compassionate. DJ loves her, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will go the extra mile for their pets.”
“Lauren was absolutely wonderful and took such great care of my cat while I was away on vacation. She sent me updates and pictures every visit and was so patient with my shy kitty who spent her first few visits hiding. They ultimately became best buds which made me feel so much better about being away. I would definitely recommend Lauren and would definitely have her again!”
“Christina was very friendly and had great communication with me throughout the week. Although my kitty is a VERY shy boy, she tried her best to give him attention and encourage him with toys and treats. She even stayed longer on some days! Very happy with my experience and I would rebook Christina again in the future!! :)”

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Marlboro stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Marlboro choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Marlboro with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
