About: I worked as a private dog and house sitter for a small company for a couple years. It was wonderful. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, farm animals, horses, birds and more along with their houses! My family has always had dogs, cats and other pets too. Nothing better than being out in a beautiful, open space watching the dogs run around freely…just being dogs. I’ve helped train puppies with leash, off-leash, tricks and general respect over the past couple years. It can be challenging, but incredibly rewarding. I also have training from a local animal shelter! When interacting or training, I consider myself incredibly patient and calm. I focus on radiating lots of love when I’m around animals. They deserve every ounce of it! More recently, I’ve spent a ton of time nannying children, sometimes helping with their animals too! Feel free to ask any questions. Looking forward to meeting you 🙂 Tons of availability right now as I just returned from traveling. I’ll be acquiring a new nannying position soon. Weekends are available too with proper notice! I love making animals feel safe and cared about while keeping things light and fun, when appropriate. I generally have good intuition regarding how to present in front of certain animals. If a dog isn’t listening, my first instinct isn’t to yell, but to remind the dog who is in charge by firming up my tone. My goal is never to make a dog listen to me out of fear- just respect.

About: I’m a huge dog lover and have been caring for dogs for over 15 years. I started out working for a dog walking company, then ran my own dog walking business for a while. After 2020, I moved on to other things, but I’ve still stayed connected by walking and caring for a few longtime clients here and there. Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I’d love to help take care of yours! I’m currently a preschool teacher and off for the summer, so I have plenty of free time to care for your pup! During the school year, I’m available for afternoon and evening visits after 3 p.m. on weekdays. I am available most times on the weekends as well. I’d love to spend my free time giving your dog the attention and care they deserve! Safety is always my top priority. I make sure to follow every routine and instruction pet owners provide because I know how important consistency is for dogs. I also have a dog at home who isn’t very dog-friendly, so I truly understand how important it is to respect each dog’s unique needs and boundaries.
“Emma was amazing with Bronson. She took great care of him while we were away and he was happy and relaxed when we got home. He loved her from their first meet and greet, so we felt very comfortable leaving Bronson with Emma. We would be happy to use Emma again and recommend her to others.”
About: As a true dog lover, I understand that dogs need love, patience, and attention—especially when their owners are away. I know accidents and little messes can happen, and I approach them with patience and understanding. I truly empathize with how stressful separation can feel for pets, which is why I focus on making them feel safe, comforted, and cared for. I also understand how important peace of mind is for owners, and I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. I’m currently a full-time master’s student with a flexible schedule, allowing me availability for dog walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week. I currently provide care in my client’s home and always try to follow your pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and safe. I understand dogs need love, attention, patience, and reassurance—especially when their owners are away.

About: I’ve spent the last 6 years caring for dogs and cats for families in my neighborhood, including puppies, high‑energy dogs, and seniors who need a gentler pace. I regularly do dog walking, drop‑in visits, and house sitting, and I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, medications, walks, and playtime. I treat every animal like my own, send lots of photo updates, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and relaxed while their people are away. I’m a college student, so my availability is best during school breaks and holidays. When I’m home in New Jersey, I’m generally free on both weekdays and weekends, and I’m happy to work around your travel plans. I keep my calendar up to date and respond quickly so we can find times that fit your schedule. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to the routines you already have in place—feeding schedule, walk times, and house rules. I always double‑check doors, gates, and leashes, and I watch for any changes in behavior or appetite that might signal a problem. I’m respectful of your home, keep things tidy, and send clear updates and photos so you always know how your pets are doing.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Morristown
Katy is excellent with our 2 year old Aussie. She is on time and flexible. She helped me out with our dog when my husband was in the hospital and I will be forever grateful for her care and concern during that difficult time. It brought me peace knowing that our dog was being well cared for when we could not be there to do it. Thanks Katy!
Vanessa was fantastic and professional when she came to our house to walk our dog Roxy. She was prompt, able to calmly interact with our special needs dog and provided multiple pictures and updates during her one hour stay! We will be using her as a regular sitter from now on!
Kaylee has watched over our pup Louie a couple of times now and we couldn’t be happier. She is clearly a pet lover and treats our baby as if he was her own. She sends updates and pictures, ensures that any concerns are addressed, and keeps our house as neat as she found it. We would highly recommend Kaylee for anyone in need of a caring and responsible pet sitter!
I highly recommend Emily! She was able to check in on Ellie and JimBob on very short notice, which I appreciated so much. Ellie is elderly and can be difficult to care for, but Emily handled everything with patience, compassion, and genuine love for animals. She kept me informed, made sure the dogs were comfortable, and gave Ellie the gentle care she needs. I truly felt at ease knowing they were in her hands. I’ll definitely booking with her again!

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Morristown choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
