“Jenniffer was wonderful and took amazing care of my three kitties! She was very diligent in giving Clyde his medicine every day, even when he wasn’t very cooperative. She took care of everything, played with them, and treated them like they were her own. She sent lots of pictures and videos, communicated with me every day, and even let me know when the house got chilly so we could turn on the heat. I can’t recommend her highly enough, and I know they will be in great hands the next time we go away!”
“maribeth is amazing! samoas was so excited to see her and absolutely loved their walk around the development. she does a great job staying in touch and providing updates throughout the visit. i highly recommend her if you ever need a sitter, especially for last minute help!”
“Alli has been wonderful! It’s our first time getting a pet sitter for our two kitties and Alli made the whole process very easy! She was very communicative, gave lots of update pics and kept us in the loop so we felt very comfortable having our kitties in her hands! Already booked the next sitting! Would 100% recommend :)”
“Jamie has taken care of my 2 cats multiple times now and always does a great job! Whether it’s extras like making sure Cat TV is on for them, feeding, treats and playtime, the cats are always happy and well taken care of when I come back from trips :)”
“Excellent and so very responsive to scheduling. What a relief to have Dina take care of my pups. They love her visits and get a good run in the middle of the day. Highly recommend Dina.👍”
“Brittany started doing drop in visits for me today. She was fantastic. My dogs are very barky but she seemed to handle it very well and got them very calm to go out and do their business. Everything was perfect. Thank you !”
“Thank you so much! Nicholas went above and beyond for Harvey and even took him out to play with his favorite ball! Your attention to detail doesn’t go unnoticed! Thank you again!”
“Nora is awesome! She cared for our cat and really made him feel relaxed and comfortable, even right after our cat’s recent diabetes diagnosis requiring twice daily insulin injections. It’s clear she truly cares for and forms genuine connections with the pets she looks after. and we totally appreciated her photo and message updates while we were away!”
“everything went exceptionally well with Kevin taking care of Darla and River. Kevin was punctual, followed instructions that were left and interacted with the dogs extremely well. I give him 5 STARS and will use him when his services are required in the future.”
“Dominique did an amazing job watching and caring for my dogs while I was gone! She updated me daily on giving my dog his eye drops, sent photos of her walking my dog, and even cleaned my dishes and took out the garbage which was unexpected yet greatly appreciated. Definitely will be booking her again in the near future!”
“Dawn is the best. My cat loves her and he pretty much hates everyone! She takes care of everything and we feel totally at ease letting her care for our mitzu kitty. We wouldn't book with anyone else.”
About: I’ve had pets my entire life, and two years ago I worked with a dog-sitting company—a truly rewarding experience. I love being surrounded by these four-legged friends, and I have a natural ability to communicate with them. I am currently off for the summer, but starting in September, I will be mostly available after 4:00 p.m. on weekdays and throughout the weekends. In my home, I focus on creating a safe, fun, and structured environment for every pet. We’ve recently added a secure fence to our extra-large backyard so visiting pups now have a spacious, supervised play area to run, explore, and burn off energy. In addition, I make sure dogs stay active and engaged with daily walks around the neighborhood, tailored to their age and energy level. In a client’s home, I maintain their pet’s routine as closely as possible—feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and walks—so they feel comfortable and cared for in their familiar space. My goal is always to provide consistency, safety, and lots of loving attention, whether I’m hosting your pet or caring for them in your home.
“Bianca was amazing, always kept in contact with me and was so helpful! I was nervous as a first time Rover user but she made it a great experience, and my puppy Lucy loved her 🥰”
“Bridget was great my dogs loved her. It was a last minute request and she went above and beyond for my dogs. Will deformed be reaching out again next time I’m in need of a sitter.”

About: I have taken care of neighbors dogs, our friends dogs, and our own dogs for as long as i can remember. I love animals. I grew up having all different animals in the house, so I have much experience with them, and would love to take care of other local fur friends. I currently work from home, so I’m super flexible! I am available any day of the week for drop ins, and walks. Whichever you prefer! I care for fur friends in others homes by always keeping their animals safe, fed, and loved as if their owner was there with them.
“Elizabeth is a joy to work with! She is responsible, competent, compassionate, and dedicated. Not only is she prompt in her check-in’s she really cares about the animals she works with. During a challenging moment with my dog while we were on vacation, she politely remained in contact but took control of the situation and both the house and dog were right as rain by the time we got back! 10/10 would hire her again!”

Matawan cat parents share their Rover experiences
I cannot say enough great things about my pet sitter. She went above and beyond to take care of my dog and four cats, giving each of them so much attention and care. Her communication was excellent—she kept me updated every visit—and she always arrived promptly. I also appreciated how clean and tidy she kept my home while I was away. It gave me such peace of mind knowing everything (and everyone!) was in such good hands. I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter!
