“Carol was EXCELLENT with our dog. She was available for a meet and great ahead of time and watched him for a full week. During that week, she treated him with the utmost love and attention, truly as if it were her own dog. She was also very responsive to messages and sent updates as requested. We felt so at ease and comfortable knowing our fur baby was in good hands while we traveled. One of the best rover experiences we’ve had to date! Will absolutely use her again.”

“Gail did a great job with Raven. We usually are worried about whether Raven will adjust to a new sitter, but Gail quickly sent us pictures and a note letting us know how quickly she bonded with Raven and how calm she had become.”

“Samantha was incredible with our dog. Samantha agreed to care for our dog at the last minute, which we are incredibly grateful for. Poor pup was diagnosed with a UTI so Samantha administered medications to her and made sure she got out often to pee. Fantastic attention to our dog and great communication, highly recommend Samantha’s services!!”

“Lisa is amazing! She did a great job keeping us updated with pics & videos. Our dog has never looked this happy when we’ve gone away. She kept her active with walks & playtime with her pup. Highly recommend!”

“Sue is a great sitter who was very accommodating and made our pup feel right at home. She followed our instructions and put our minds at ease and provided plenty of photos and updates on how our pup was doing. Will definitely ask her to watch our dog again in the future!”


“Erinn was great! She was very quick to respond to all my messages and updated me every day with how things were going with Mochi. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”

“Such an amazing experience using Rover. Jaclynn was in constant contact with us and made us feel so much better about being away. Our dog had a great time with her! We will definitely use her again when we go away.”

“Pumpkin loved his stay with Bydette and her family. They enjoyed him too. He got lots of walks, play time and cuddles. He even tried to walk back into their house when they handed me the leash!”

“Stan and Barbara are wonderful! They looked after our Aussie Shepherd, Benji, for 5 days over the Thanksgiving holiday and 2 weeks over Christmas. They not only take great care of Benji but treats him as their own. We get daily photos and texts on Benji from his walks to him resting on their laps. Stan and Barbara are new to Rover as they have only started dog sitting after losing their beloved dog but they are clearly dog lovers who will take great care of your pup. I highly recommend them!”
“Michele is very responsive and also excellent with keeping us updated on how our 2 furry ones were doing. So glad we found her and our furry ones grew fond of her. We definitely recommend her to others and we will always contact her for our future stays.”

“Accommodated with short notice. Encouraged a meet and greet, even came to us due to our schedule. Immediately felt at ease leaving Fletcher for the day. He looked happy in the photos sent.”

“It's always a pleasure booking a stay with Lana! Our 10 year old shih tzu had the grandest time during her stay. We love knowing Sugar is well taken care of when we are away. Thanks Lana!”

“Shaun and his family were an amazing host! He took very good care of our dog, taking her on daily walks, playing with her and sending frequent updates and pictures. We highly recommend Shaun and will look for him in the future.”

“Karina was an amazing caregiver for our senior dog. She loved and cared for her like one of her own dogs. She maintained constant contact throughout the weekend with texts and pictures and Gertrude can not wait to stay with her again!”

“Cherie was a wonderful caretaker for Chase! We were leaving him for the first time, and she put our minds at ease. We knew he was in great hands and had a lot of attention, care and love. She was great with updates, and prompt with replies to any concerns we had. We'd definitely use her again the next time chase is in need of care!”

“Paul was great looking after Nellie over thanksgiving! Sent a bunch of photos throughout the week of her with his family and gave updates throughout her stay. Nellie can be a bit shy initially and Paul gave her the time and patience to come out of her shell and fell more comfortable with his family. Will definetly use Paul again!”

“Christina was AMAZING! Our dog Rhodey had such a great time and she took care of him very well. We had boarded him for 5 days and he got so much love & cuddles during that time. She was a pleasure to communicate with, always responding quickly and providing details when needed. She even sent him home with a little gift! She's so sweet and kind, I would highly recommend her for any pet related service!! Was a true pleasure and will definitely hire her again :)”

Morris Plains dog parents share their Rover experiences
Our dog passed away late last year, and a couple of months later we planned a trip to Switzerland—our first time traveling without the responsibility of a dog. Unfortunately, the house immediately felt quiet, lonely, and honestly not much like a home. We decided to volunteer at the shelter (AHS Newark) where we had adopted our soul dog and participated in Adventure Tails, where we instantly fell in love with the dog we were paired with—Theo. We ended up adopting Theo shortly before our vacation and suddenly found ourselves scrambling to find a dog sitter. My parents had used Michelle before and gave her two enthusiastic thumbs up, so I reached out to see if she was available. Michelle was incredibly responsive and was happy to schedule a meet-and-greet, which we always prefer before leaving our dog. Throughout our trip, Michelle was fantastic—she stayed in constant communication and sent daily photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. We were able to truly enjoy our vacation without worrying. We highly recommend Michelle to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.

Stan and Barbara are wonderful! They looked after our Aussie Shepherd, Benji, for 5 days over the Thanksgiving holiday and 2 weeks over Christmas. They not only take great care of Benji but treats him as their own. We get daily photos and texts on Benji from his walks to him resting on their laps. Stan and Barbara are new to Rover as they have only started dog sitting after losing their beloved dog but they are clearly dog lovers who will take great care of your pup. I highly recommend them!
Christina has taken care of our dogs several times now and always does a great job. Our dogs are always excited to arrive at her house. She sends lots of photos and gives updates often. She is very responsive to messages. Over the holidays she gives them little gifts and NYE pup cups. Originally, we chose Christina because she has experience taking care of dogs post-op and one of our dogs had a recent ACL surgery. She took great care of him. It was clear she knew what she was doing. She is also very knowledgeable about dogs in general. It’s worth mentioning that once we needed an extra night at the last minute due to a flight cancellation and she was very kind and accommodating. We highly recommend Christina.
Cherie and her family took great care of our furry baby. .they provided a nice safe place for him while away from home. He looked very happy when I picked him up. I appreciate all the pictures and feedback I was getting during his stay. Looking forward to see you soon. Thank you ( special thanks to your adorable son for being so sweet and playing with Apollo )

Alka was extremely professional and communicative. She sent several photos and videos each day of the stay and responded very quickly. I could tell my dog was very comfortable with her and well cared for. She only keeps one dog at a time so you know they’re getting the best attention possible.

Shannon and Micheal took such great care of our border collie! They provided videos and photos each day to ensure us of how our dog was doing while also messaging about his day. They were also very kind and we felt zero stress when having to leave our dog with them. They were also very flexible given our travel plans and picking and dropping off. 5 plus stars - recommend to any others wanting someone to take care of their dog.

Santiago really was amazing with my fur baby. He sent multiple updates every day. I know Aston was super comfortable just by looking at his pictures. Even when I went to pick him up, my baby was barking at me like I was a stranger 😂. I’ll definitely be using Santiago again. Thank you for everything!
