“Kelly is the absolute best. This was our first time on Rover, and her communications were clear and quick, and she did great work reassuring us that our pup was in good hands. Loved the photographs, and really appreciated the time she took to communicate with us by phone and by text. We’re only slightly concerned that our pup now likes her more than us! 😀 Hugely impressed with Kelly - she’ll take fab care of your pups.”
“Katie did an awesome job will absolutely use them again. Four dogs is alot to handle but with their daily updates we never felt concerned. Great Job!”
“Awesome job dropping in for our dogs and letting them out and feeding them. This was our 3rd time with Carmen and will definitely use her again.”
“Michael did a fantastic job with drop-in visits to take care of our 3 cats while we were gone on vacation! When our usual sitter was unavailable, I was nervous about having a new person take care of them, but he was incredible! Michael was very professional and communicated well the entire time with daily pictures and detailed updates. The cats are generally nervous around new people, but he made them feel comfortable with all their favorite things and treats. I was also happy he stopped by to meet the cats and to let me show him around before the first visit. Would definitely have Michael care for the trio again!”
“Jonathan was very keen to learn the ins and outs of my pet’s routine. I could tell he cared about my boy and brought treats to warm up to him.”
“Reliable and very helpful. We paid for drop-in service over Christmas. Deb took care of both of our Amstaff mixes for a week and a half during the massive bomb cyclone that froze N. America. Our older dog had an accident the first night before the first drop-in and Deb took care of it. He is also aging and needed some extra tlc. Everybody and everything looked great when we got back! Thank you so much!”
“Mark went above and beyond when stopping in on my cats, he was very communicative letting me know how they were doing and answering all of my questions. And he even stayed to play with them past the allotted time. He did a great job and would absolutely recommend him to take care of your cats or dogs.”
“Marc has been great since he started checking in and walking the boys. Super nice and asks plenty of questions to make sure they’re well taken care of when he stops by. I highly recommend using Marc!”

“Eva was wonderful and took excellent care of my cats. She kept in contact with me, including sending photos. I didn’t worry at all and will definitely use her again in the future. Highly recommend!!”
“She was willing to check on my babies at the last minute notice and even switched her plans so they won’t go too long without food. I’m so thankful!!”
“Johnny has done an amazing job with our dog and for us. He is responsible, prompt, and has great follow-up with the animal owner. With the dog he is kind, patient, and interactive. Great experience all around.”

About: I have years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, including seniors and puppies. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like family. I’m comfortable with administering medications, following feeding and walking routines, and providing lots of affection. What sets me apart is my reliability, calm energy, and genuine love for animals. I understand how important it is to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment while you're away. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, slow-paced walks, or just company on the couch, I tailor my care to meet their unique needs. I work from home, which allows me to provide flexible and consistent care throughout the day. I'm available for regular walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. Since I'm home most of the time, your pet will rarely be left alone and will receive plenty of attention and affection. My schedule makes it easy to accommodate pets with special routines or needs, and I’m happy to adjust my day to make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. At my home, I offer a secure, fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and exercise. I have two friendly, well-behaved dogs who love the company of new friends and help create a welcoming, social environment. I always monitor interactions to ensure everyone is getting along and feeling comfortable. If your dog prefers their own space or needs a break, I can provide crate accommodations upon request. I maintain a clean, calm, and loving environment where your pet will feel safe, happy, and cared for.

About: I have grown up with West Highland Terriers my entire life. I love dogs, but unfortunately cannot have one in my new place in NJ. I would love to give my love to your pets while you are at work or away for a vacation. I do work a full 8-5pm job; however, I am fully remote, so I can easily get around. I am a scheduling connoisseur, so I will prioritize your doggo’s routine with mine. I am a big rule follower and always lead with respect for you and your pup. Please let me know how best to care for your fur baby, and I will do just that.

Annabelle C.
“Some people aren't dog people. Some people claim to be dog people and, I guess, maybe kinda are. But then there are DOG PEOPLE. That's Annabelle. Dogs immediately sense she is in their camp. Something about her body language, natural mutual respect and "hey, we can have a lot of fun together . . . but here are the rules." Dog people understand that dogs love understanding the rules - even if they don't always follow them. Annabelle gets that . . . and a lot of other things. Want someone who speaks and thinks canine - you found her. And if you want some good stories, just ask her about Baxter.”
