“Our dog Penny had a wonderful stay with Debbie. She has a beautiful property and home, and upon receiving photos and videos, it was evident Penny felt very comfortable there. Debbie was an excellent communicator and gave us updates each day which was very reassuring. We are very grateful to have found her!”

“Brutus is my 7 year old Pit Terrier rescue . To fully encapsulate the experience he had staying with Jaclyn, I will need to describe Brutus a bit more. Brutus is very people centric. He not only requires constant attention and affection, he almost demands it. He is extremely kind and loving and often misunderstood by his appearance. He can be extremely stubborn, as is common with pits. I brought Brutus to Jaclyn for an introduction... It went very well. I then decided to leave Brutus for a few days as I traveled. It is also important to know that Brutus just came out of ear surgery, so at that time he required some medical attention, as well as extra care. The surgery and the medication, and the care weren't a problem for Jaclyn. Brutus and his stubbornness, was not a problem for Jaclyn . Brutus being afraid of thunderstorms, and his need for constant affection... also not a problem for Jaclyn . Jaclyn did an exceptional job of taking care of Brutus, showing him love and affection, and it showed when I picked him up. I received frequent updates and photos on his condition and care. Jaclyn was also extremely flexible with my change in travel, and it has been an absolute pleasure to work with her and her husband. After trying many other options for Brutus ... I can definitively say I have found Brutus his permanent caregiver. My family and I are extremely appreciative for the love, care, and attention Jaclyn and her husband have given to Brutus. Thank you so much and we will see you soon!”

Once we dropped off our pup, the great experience continued... we received daily updates (w/ video) on how he was doing with their super-friendly children and other dogs. It made us feel great and set us at ease on our vacation. Highly recommended!”

“This was our first experience leaving Benny with a pet sitter and leaving him with someone new was not easy for me but Bhawani made it easier. The whole process from meet and greet to boarding was seamless. She did a thorough job vetting him to make sure he’d be a good fit and made sure she has all the details about our dog. The best part was getting updates with pictures and videos of his daily activities and responding to all our messages. She’s also been helping him in socialising with other dogs. Highly recommended Bhawani for anyone looking for a great home away from home for their fur baby!!”

He was super responsive whenever we reached out, sent regular updates with photos and videos, was flexible with timing, and his home is beautiful, tidy, and spacious, even for our larger dog (a mastiff/shepherd mix). We feel like we’ve found our dog sitter for life. Highly recommend!”

“I was beyond apprehensive leaving my dog with anyone. I am a very protective mom. I truly feel lucky finding Christian on rover.com. He is amazing with my pit bull, Nico. Unfortunately, pit bull get a bad rap and I had some difficulty trying to find a sitter. We use his service twice and the second time around, my dog Nico went into his house wagging his tail like he lived there. This gave me a sense of relief because it confirmed that Nico was comfortable. Christian made sure to update us on a daily basis with text messages, pictures and videos. He even went the extra step and bathe my dog.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. As a lifelong dog lover and a proud dog mom myself, I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. What sets me apart is the personal attention and genuine care I provide. I want every dog staying with me to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and truly at home. I’m patient with puppies and energetic dogs who need extra playtime and attention, and I’m equally happy caring for older or more relaxed dogs who prefer a quieter environment and a slower pace. I take the time to learn your dog’s normal routine, feeding schedule, walking habits, favorite activities, and any special instructions you provide. My goal is to care for your fur baby the same way I would want someone to care for my own, like part of the family. I’m a real estate agent with a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan my day around the pets in my care. I’m able to provide plenty of attention throughout the day, including regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of love and companionship. Since I have dogs of my own, pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. Your pup will be treated like part of the family while staying with me! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I provide a clean, loving, and supervised home environment where dogs are treated like part of the family. I have a spacious, fully fenced backyard where they can safely enjoy fresh air, potty breaks, and playtime, as well as a quiet neighborhood that is perfect for walks. I carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, routines, and any special needs. I understand that every dog has a different personality, so I take the time to help each pet feel comfortable and adjust at their own pace. I have two friendly dogs of my own who are used to sharing their home, but I also have the ability to keep them separate from guest dogs if needed. This allows me to accommodate dogs who may prefer their own space or need a calmer environment. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your fur baby is safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while staying in my home.

Alka is my pup’s and my new favorite person! I am so thankful I found someone I trust to take care of my Yorkie, Clover. As the owner of a recently adopted 8 year old Yorkie with a few health issues , leaving him with someone new was stressful. Alka immediately put my mind at ease. She kept me updated with messages and pictures throughout his stay. He looked so happy, relaxed, and genuinely loved❤️. I couldn’t recommend Alka more highly.

Great experience for our chocolate lab. She was very happy and well taken care of. Had fun with other dogs playing in the snow. It was clear she was in good hands based on the updates we received while on vacation. Loved the report card provided at the end of her stay. Would definitely recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their New Vernon home-away-from-home, packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your New Vernon.

Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your New Vernon sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in NJ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
