“John was flexible with drop off and pick up times, which I appreciated. Bear was running around with a happy face when I came to get him and he slept the rest of the day, so I know he had fun!”
About: I have taken care of animals all my life. I grew up with small pocket pets (rabbits) and birds. As an adult I have dogs, cats, chickens, horses, and alpacas - all of which live with me on my small farm. I have experience with giant breed dogs and higher energy dogs. I also know how and am comfortable giving medications. I have worked in the animal industry for the last 10 years. Ranging from boarding facilities for dogs and cats to veterinary offices. I also am currently volunteering with my therapy dog and we visit hospitals and schools. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom so my pets are with me all day. I take the dogs out for daily walks as well as other activities. I also have a large fenced in backyard for them to play in. I have a 1-acre fenced in yard for my babies (and yours!) to play in. All of my dogs are friendly and love to play with new friends. I also have cats (strictly indoor), horses, alpacas, and chickens on the property. New friends must be good with all animals as well as children if they are staying in the house. Children and other pets will never be left unsupervised with your fur baby. If I come to your home for care for your fur baby they will be spoiled with lots of attention and love
“We are beyond grateful to have found Kristen to care for our beagle, Annie! She had an incredible week filled with fun, and absolutely loved playing with Piper all week. We can’t recommend Kristen highly enough!”
About: I grew up with both dogs🐶 and cat🐱 so I’ve been taking care of animals for most of my life. I have a ShihTzu named Chloe - she is 5 years old and is so sweet. She loves socializing with other dogs - she is calm yet has her playful moments as well. My close friends, family members and neighbors have trusted me to take care of their fur babies throughout the years. I recently decided to make a Rover account to help others who need a trusted individual take care of their fur baby(s). Please message me if you have any questions! 🐾 • I currently work remote from 9am-5pm. I am fully available nights and weekends. • I take Chloe out between 7:30-8:00am to use the potty/10 minute walk. Then I give her a Greenie and her breakfast. • I take Chloe out around 12/12:30 for a potty break followed by a treat and some playtime. • Around 5pm I take Chloe out for a potty break and a 15 minute walk. Sometimes I will take her to the dog park or she will socialize with other dogs on our walk around the community. Afterwards, I feed her dinner. • I take Chloe out around 9pm for another short walk/potty break. I then sometimes take her out again around 10-10:30 before we go to bed. • I have the flexibility to take care of your fur baby(s) during the day, evenings & weekends.🐾 • I live on the first floor of an apartment complex that is extremely dog friendly. They have two dog parks - (one for big and one for small dogs) which are both conveniently located across from my building! A good number of residents in my community have a dog so there is plenty of socializing. • I do not crate Chloe however, if you prefer to have your fur baby crated, please let me know and that can be arranged.
“Brian was great! Super flexible with my odd work hours. Finn was very nervous as Brian was his first sitter, but he ended leaving with a wagging tail! Loved the photo updates as well!”

About: Taken care of my own dog Ripley since we got her in 2015, happily walked and sat for family friends with small to large dogs ever since! I’m a full time college student but I’m committed to pet care whenever I’m not in class! During breaks Im available 24/7 and more than happy to walk or dogsit! I have one very friendly mid-sized lab that would be more than happy to have company! I don’t have a fenced in yard but I take them out on the leash as needed and walk once a day!
“I brought my two beagles to Stacey for a year, and she and Anthony took wonderful care of them. They were very easy to work with, and whenever my family gets another dog, we definitely plan on using Stacey again.”
About: I love caring for dogs in our home and treating them like they are a part of our family! Your dog will get plenty of attention and snuggles. Your dog will rarely be left alone as I am home almost all the time and if I am not, my family (all adults) helps care for the pets too. I have experience with senior dogs and those with anxiety. We have a fenced in yard and I also love to take dogs for walks in our quiet neighborhood. Please note that we have one cat in the house and a puppy. The puppy is a Carolina dog- mixed breed. As of June she is 8 months old. She has normal puppy energy and is ready to play! We would do a meet and greet to have the dogs meet before you booked to make sure you and your pup are comfortable. I enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality. I am interested in pursuing a future career working with pets. Your dog will be loved and treated like part of the family while staying with us. I have plenty of availability and flexibility in my schedule. For boarding, I am home all the time but in the chance that I am out, my family (all adults) is usually home. So your pet will rarely be alone. I am offering overnight boarding in my home. We are a family of 4 adult so there is almost always someone home. We do have a cat and a 6 month old puppy. We have a fenced in yard for your dog to run, but I will also take them for walks around the neighborhood.
About: I love animals. I just lost my dog after 14 years so I am very experienced. Perfect home for those dogs who are unpredictable with other dogs or small children. ZERO TOLERANCE FOR DOGS THAT HAVE ANY POTENTIAL AGGRESSION TOWARDS PEOPLE. I am for the most part home and available while caring for your dog. The most I may leave them alone is one hour, only if necessary. I usually feed and take your dog out at 7am. We go for a 30 min walk around 11am. Thereafter there are multiple potty breaks in the backyard on a lead. Last potty break is around 9-10pm. They are welcome to sleep with me in my bed if they are clean.
“My dog sitter cancelled last minute. Brineydi responded quickly and ensured me Midnight was adjusting well. Although, it was for a few hours she send pictures and kept me updated. I would book with her again in the future.”
“Maryori was 12/10! Not only did she take in Cooper last minute she was very sweet and accommodating. She kept me updated on Cooper the entire time. You won’t regret keeping your pup with her. This was the first time but it won’t be the last I book with her!”
About: Hey there! Are you looking for a trustworthy and reliable person to help care for your beloved companion(s)? (Of course you are, thats why we're here!) My current work leaves me with some time I love to fill with animals. I'm a remote worker central to Medford Village, which means I'm often available for last minute services. I grew up on a farm with lots of animals and know more than the average bear about dog behavior. I can recognize when a canine is uncomfortable and needs extra patience or anxious and needs an outlet. I have 3 years experience teaching basic obediance on top of that. If you need a consistent walker, I can teach your dog basic walking etiquette during our walks too. I have my own dog who is extremly friendly and availiable for visits, if you would like a playmate for your pup. He's a jobial, 30lb Beagle/lab mix and up to date on all shots. No extra charge, just let me know you'd like to meet Chester too! We used to work with rescued fighting pitbulls and Chester was the dog used for socalizing. Hes very non-reactive and perfect for socalizing puppies or reactive dogs. I look to provide a simulating experience for your pet and a transparent one for you. I send lots of pics and communicate often. I look forward to connecting to see if were a good fit. I am a remote worker with a fluctuating schedule. I am able to provide last minute and consistent services to my neighbors close by M-F, weekends vary. When in your home, I always make sure everything is locked up before I leave and let you know if I see something out of sorts. When in my home, I have a bonus room set up for dogs, as well as a gated patio they can enjoy.
“Wonderful family! Daisy enjoyed staying with them. I was in a crunch trying to find a sitter and Lauren and Derek were there for us. They did a great job making my dog feel comfortable when she was initially nervous. I highly recommend!”
“Madeline was great. Took good care of my pup, he didn't wanna go when i picked him up! She was great at responding to any questions and even sent me some pics of Fenn enjoying himself at her house.”
“Wonderful experience. Last minute request with a quick response. Her house is very welcoming and the background is the best. All dogs were very friendly and used to have guests at home, including the cat. 100% recommended! Thank you”
“So far so great! This was our first booking and it went very well! Shelann was welcoming and wonderful with CLA. She has a grand home and backyard. There was plenty of play at the home and the dog park. More than enough videos and great communication. Definitely recommended!”
“When I met her to ask about daycare for my dog, I immediately felt at ease. Karen and her husband were so kind, and she sent several pictures and updates about how my dog was doing.”
“Erica was communicative and easy going. She has watched our pup twice on days when she needed a place to stay and our dog came back happy both times. She got lots of exercise and love. Thanks!”
“Alessia & her partner were able to help watch my dog with last minute doggy day care booking! They were easy to communicate with and took my dog on a nice hour-long walk. Would book with them again!”

I booked Shannon for two days to take care of my puppy, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She took such great care of him, making sure he was comfortable, happy, and well looked after. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos she shared—it gave me peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking her again in the future and would highly recommend her to my friends!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Medford commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NJ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 2,268 sitters in Medford, 86% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
