“While we were on a mini-vacation Janet took fantastic care of our miniature poodle for four 1/2 days. Janet likes do everything exactly as requested, and we appreciated her attention to detail. We are repeat customers and have peace of mind when Janet is caring for our little one. We definitely will continue to use her terrific drop-in services, and will book her again soon.”


“Samantha is absolutely amazing; she did much more than the bare minimum and made sure to give my cat some playtime and affection while I was gone. She's very good with communication and sending photos — highly recommend!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”



“Really helpful with a last minute drop in visit for my cat! She seems to make Molly feel very safe and comfortable even though she’s a nervous cat. Caitlin provided great updates!”


“Denise is fabulous! She has been doing drop in visits for several weeks while my new puppy adjusts to his new home and routines. I am a teacher so she has been a god send. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone who be caring and attentive. She goes above and beyond with pictures, videos, and more (including changing our potty pads in my puppy’s pen and cleaning up his messes). Cannot recommend highly enough!”


“Camila filled in for my regular person for a week on just a couple days' notice. She took excellent care of my 15-year-old Beagle mix with in-home visits while I was at work during the day. She sent sweet, reassuring photos and gave me a daily report on how my little guy was doing that day. I highly recommend Camila; she's a professional, responsible, friendly, and very dog-loving sitter.”


“Alyssa is so very sweet and gentle with our furbabies. She’s lovely, uber-reliable (no reminders needed), and absolutely trustworthy! We appreciated communication with feedback about her visits and photos to see that our dogs were OK!”


“Caila does amazing watching our 6 month old pup and giving him some much needed company and play time mid-day. She’s great to work with, thoughtful and always leaves a solid report!”


“Wonderful communicator. Took excellent care of our German Shepherd. I felt at ease with her care and had no worries! She also made sure our pup was safe.”


“Ty was amazing with my two cats! I would highly recommend Ty to anyone who needs a pet sitter. My cats warmed up to Ty so quickly and I could tell Ty really cared for them and it put my mind at ease while I was away!”


“As usual Laura was the best sitter ever!! We were out of the country so she really handled everything for me including taking excellent care of our senior kitty who was happy as a clam when we got home. She took care to keep the cat areas clean. She brought in some packages for me and a few other things I asked her to do for me. She is on time and never misses a sitting appointment. She is just the best. We have had her take care of our kitties for six years now.”


About: I have fostered dogs and puppies for the last 3 years of all breeds and ages. I am taking a break from fostering while living at home with my family, so I am hoping to get my puppy love through rover! I enjoy playing fetch with my family dog, taking her on long walks and car rides, and sharing cuddles! I currently work full time 8am - 3pm in the mental health industry; however, my schedule can be flexible. I have plenty of time in the afternoons and evenings to care for your pet! I don’t work at all on weekends leaving plenty of time for pet care. I have a dog of my own, so I know how important walks and play time are. I will make sure your fur baby gets the opportunity to let some much needed energy out while also keeping them safe!

“Michele was great! Last minute my family had to travel to Kentucky (due to a death in the family) and we could not be more greatful for the peace of mind Michele provided us when our cat had to be left home alone for over a month. Her updates, videos and pictures were just what we needed during our stressful time away from home. We will definitely use her services again in the future! Thanks Michele!”


About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, and would definitely consider myself an animal lover! I have pet sit for both dogs and cats of neighbors, friends, and family, and I would love to take care of your pet too! I am also an avid walker and would be more than happy to take your pet on however long of a walk they require! I recently graduated from college and am on summer break before starting graduate school in late August, so I will be available to visit with your pet all summer long! I have lived in Montclair my entire life and am very comfortable navigating the neighborhood/surrounding areas. I have reliable transportation and would be happy to take care of your pet in your home.

About: Hello! My name is John Paul (JP) for short. I turned 18 a couple months ago and I’m available for pet sitting! I have been doing pet sitting for about 6 years now and I love it. I’ve had 3 dogs, 2 cats, and over 5 baby parrots I’ve raised on own when I was younger and I like to think I had/have a very good relationship with them. I love all sorts of animals and love getting to spend time and interact with them. We’ll because I’m still in school, I stay at home with my parents but I have 2 cats that I feed, clean litter boxes, and spend time and play with daily. In my clients home I would obviously respect their space and not let the pets in anywhere they cannot go. If they have a fenced backyard and allow it, I would let them out and play with them. If they have a cat I would try my best to just spend time with them and play if they want to!

“Great care! Provided real time feedback.”



“Nothing but great things to say! Stefanie was super accommodating and flexible with my schedule especially when I had to modify the dates a couple times. My dogs can be a little much but she took great care of them and I am sure they already miss her. I will definitely be using her services for the future. 10/10 - would recommend!!”


“Douglas took care of my 4 month old puppy today that I have only had 11 days. I can’t say enough good about this experience and Douglas. Nico loved him and I was very comfortable as soon as I met him. I give the highest recommendation and will definitely contact him again to watch my baby!”


About: Tail wags guaranteed- I pride myself on providing personalized care and attention to every pet, as if they were my own. I have hands-on experience with a wide range of animals—from playful puppies to senior pets with special needs. I’m comfortable administering medications, handling special diets, and creating calm, comfortable environments for anxious or elderly pets. In addition to basic care, I also offer help with puppy training basics like potty routines, leash manners, and crate comfort. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and communicate openly with pet parents, so you’re always in the loop. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are my top priority! I am a full time stay at home mom whose kiddos have all started school and am working on filling my time and love for animals while they’re away. They are dropped off early in the morning and picked up in the late afternoon leaving my schedule open for most of the day. I also own a photography business and have occasional clients. However, I can plan around those in advance as I make my own schedule. If you ever want a professional photo of your furry friend- just let me know! :) I have a 3 story, single family home with a fenced in backyard. I also have two of our own furry friends to keep yours company. However, if yours prefers to be alone, no problem! My home is set up with a downstairs apartment allowing your pet the most privacy and security possible. My pets are also crate trained and we are happy to provide that service, as well.

“Taji was very professional, punctual and most importantly really good with Kizmit. He followed pet care instructions to the letter and actually sat and played/loved on her. I would definitely request him again.”

Melissa was amazing with my dog. She went above and beyond what she was asked for!!!! Will definitely be using her again.

Quick response, was able to book me at short notice and took care of the furry creatures. Nothing but a good experience.

Ashley has been absolutely wonderful with our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppy! She’s watched him multiple times over the past month and has consistently gone above and beyond. She sends thoughtful updates during each visit, provides detailed feedback, and even lets us know if anything seems off. She’s introduced him to new games, which he loves, and it’s clear she really cares about his well-being. Ashley is also incredibly flexible and responsive—even on short notice. We’re so grateful to have found her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!

Keylin did a great job taking care of my diabetic cat! She was on time with feedings and injections and was even able to check her blood sugar before every meal. Highly recommend Keylin for grumpy cats who need extra help!

Caila was fantastic! She was available on short notice, respectful of our home, and great with our pup. Highly recommend!

I highly recommend Skyler. She agreed to a meet and greet before booking the job. She is punctual, dependable, and friendly. I received daily reports and photos. When I arrived home, my cats were relaxed and happy. I will definitely book with Skyler in the future.

So glad we found Nimisha on Rover to care for our puppy while we were away from home for long periods of time! She was incredibly responsive and showed care by asking questions to ensure Beau received the best care. She sent photos and updates both times. We came home to a happy pup :) We will definitely book her again!

Katie took great care of our cat Belle. She’s very knowledgeable about cats and understands them. I would highly recommend!

Taji was very easy to communicate with, our dogs instantly were comfortable with him, and he took great care of them while we were away! We would definitely book him again!

Heather was very punctual, had great communication, and was very professional. She made sure our sweet girl was well taken care of and got plenty of exercise. We’ll definitely be using her for future visits!

Luis did a great job taking care of our two cats. He's caring and compassionate. I'm sure I will use his services again in the future. I highly recommend him.

This is my 2nd time having Rahima watch over my two cats. She does an excellent job, arrives on time and keeps me posted with any updates! Thanks again! Much recommended!

Cheri was so wonderful with my puppy Sneakers! Tons of photos and videos. He clearly loved having Cheri drop in on him!

Farah and Koichi go above and beyond and our little guy loves hanging out with them. Thank you both so much!

Rubi always does an amazing job taking care of our cat when we are on vacation and this past trip was no exception. I received detailed updates and lots of photos of them playing and Rubi giving Nugget lots of affection and attention. My mind can always be at ease when I know Rubi is her petsitter. HIGHLY recommend her to everyone.
