“They did an amazing job taking care of my three girls! Gave updates on each of them, sent pictures everyday, and was sweet to my babies. Definitely will book again for my next trip!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have experience with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities. I grew up in a home with Rottweilers, which taught me early on the importance of proper care, structure, and lots of love. Over the years, I’ve lived with rescue dogs and have also fostered dogs in the past, gaining experience helping dogs adjust to new environments and routines. Currently, I live in a home with a rescue St. Bernard and a Bernese Mountain Dog. While they aren’t my own dogs, I spend a large amount of my time caring for them, giving them plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. I’m very comfortable with large breeds as well as dogs who may need extra patience and understanding. I’ve worked with many breeds and mixes, including Rottweilers, Bernese Mountain Dogs, French Bulldogs, St. Bernard, Labs, Doodle mixes, Pomeranians, Boxers, and a Rhodesian Ridgeback. I understand that every dog is unique, and I always aim to provide care that meets each dog’s individual needs while making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy. I work part time as a yoga teacher and have an open schedule on Mondays, Wednesdays, and weekend for daytime visits to take your pets out and on walks depending on what you need. I currently do not have any pets of my own which makes overnight stays to care for your pets easy. I will come to your home for to care for your pet and offer them the services you wish to have for them. Whether that be overnight stays, daytime dog walks, offering meals, or even just some outdoor playtime in your backyard.
About: I have loved and cared for animals for most of my life. Growing up, I raised and cared for dogs and many other household pets, which taught me responsibility, patience, and attentiveness from a young age. One of my earliest experiences was helping care for a mother dog and her newborn puppies. Since moving to the United States 15 years ago, I have regularly helped friends and neighbors care for their pets while they were away. In my professional life, I have been an elementary school teacher for the past ten years. My experience working with children has strengthened my ability to be patient, observant, dependable, and responsive to individual needs. I treat every pet with the same level of care and attention that I would give to a member of my own family. I am a full-time elementary school teacher during the school year. During the summer, I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day to provide care, supervision, companionship, and exercise for dogs. Because I am home for most of the day during summer break, I can accommodate regular walks, feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I am committed to maintaining your pet’s routine and ensuring they feel comfortable and cared for while you are away. I live in an end-unit townhouse in a safe, pet-friendly neighborhood with nearby walking paths, parks, and green spaces. My home provides a calm and comfortable environment where pets can relax and feel secure. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and daily routines. I supervise pets closely, keep them on leash during walks unless otherwise directed in a secure area, and make safety my top priority at all times. I understand that every dog has unique needs, and I strive to provide individualized care that helps them feel at home.
“Cristina did amazing. Fifa has medical issues and needs quite a few meds twice a day. She took care of him at our home for drop ins, sent pictures and set up the house for him after each visit to be comfy.”
About: I grew up with both cats and dogs. I have also pet sat both cats and dogs. I currently have 1 cat, Fluffy, and hope to get a dog once I move somewhere a bit more spacious. I've worked with a variety of dogs and cats, both young and old, and also helped my fiancee as she pet sat in the past. I'd love take care of your furry friend while you're away! I work from home so I have plenty of availability for drop in visits and I can make overnights work pretty often as well. I have my own cat that I take care of so I'm pretty used to a routine. I can keep you updated with lots of pictures and updates on how your pet is doing while you're away. Also happy to handle many special requests and take extra steps to keep your pet safe and comfortable.
“Leslie stopped by to walk and feed Honey, and I felt completely at ease knowing she was in good hands. She was reliable, kind, and attentive—Honey was happy and well cared for when I got back.”
“Kaylyn did a great job with Winnie and Napoleon! Our cats each have special needs, and Kaylyn understood our detailed care instructions while helping keep our apartment tidy. She was very communicative, and her daily photo updates were adorable and brightened our day throughout our vacation. We were so grateful Kaylyn provided pets and attention for them each morning, and we came home to two healthy, happy kitties! Would definitely recommend to anyone in the North/Central NJ area.”
“Hiral made daily/frequent various in visits to our chihuahua mix (Rue) for 3 and a half months. If I could giver her 10 stars, I absolutely would! Hiral is incredibly punctual, professional, communicative, and flexible. Rue was 5 months old when Hiral first started and is now almost 9 months old. Rue would not be the well behaved, potty trained pup that she is without Hiral. We and Rue will miss you Hiral! Good luck with your future endeavors! Thanks again!”
“Kimberly has been extremely reliable and took great care of Penny, Kimberly also made multiple visits at home to ensure my cat was doing okay! Thankyou so much and also thanks a lot for accepting last minute request it was really helpful and lot of relief.”
“Jaden is great. She wanted to take the time to get to know my pup before house sitting. She was respectful of her boundaries as Missy has anxiety. We are looking forward to having her stay.”
“Cindy was fantastic with my dog! She was very helpful throughout the entire process, always on time, and a great communicator. I really appreciated how responsible and attentive she was, knew my dog was in good hands while I was gone. I would definitely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.”
“We have used Cassidy twice now and have been very happy with her. She is trustworthy, communicates well, responds quickly, and is very good with our cat. She also does extra things like brining in mail without us needing to ask. I would recommend her to anyone I know who needs a pet sitter!”
“Wilson was a great pet sitter. He sent pictures of my pets everyday and documented everything through the app. He spent time with them a swell which i really appreciated. I will definitely rebook with him in the future.”
“Michael has been absolutely wonderful with our doggo! He has such a care and attention to her needs, and even helped out when she got into trouble and got into our pantry lol. We have a reactive dog, and he's been great with taking her for walks and managing her energy and needs safely. We can tell that she is very comfortable with him, and would recommend Micheal to anyone with a furry friend! :)”
About: I’ve had pets in my house from dogs & cats to fish & turtles my whole life!! Whether it’s raising a litter of cats, cleaning up accidents, or administering oral medication, I’ve done it all. While I’ve only taken care of friends’ pets a handful of times, they’ve been impressed by my thorough care & effort every time! I’m currently job-hunting and out of school, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets! My only setback is going to church certain days of the week, but otherwise I can be available anytime! I understand that every home is different & can adjust to your setup & layout easily, no judgement here! Just let me know what it is you need done for your pet/house and I can do it.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Middlesex
Meredith is very dependable from start to finish. She helped guide us through the Rover process since this was our first time, met us at our home to discuss care needs, offered to do a few chores like watering plants while we were away, sent us daily updates and welcomed us back home. I am looking forward to having Meredith take care of our pet again and would recommend her to others.
Kaitlyn was absolutely amazing with our three cats! They’re all a bit skittish, and one is even a former feral outdoor cat who is usually very wary of new people. She felt comfortable enough to stay calm and eat while Kaitlyn was there, which says everything about Kaitlyn’s gentle, calming presence. While we were away, Kaitlyn was communicative, reliable, and gave us complete peace of mind. She took exceptional care of our cats, sent thoughtful updates, and it was clear they were in the best hands. We came home to three happy, well-cared-for kitties, and we couldn’t be more grateful. We would recommend Kaitlyn without hesitation and would happily book her again!
Kaylyn is super helpful, communicative and patient. We had multiple changes to our travel plans & Kaylyn was very understanding and patient to make changes to the reservation on more than one occasion. She took good care of our cat while we were away as well. Will definitely book again. Thanks Kaylyn!
Absolutely wonderful! She was so responsive, the notes every visit were very informative and super helpful, and her personality, actions, and kindness were above and beyond. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of our fur babies while we were out of town!

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 Middlesex 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Middlesex. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
