“Bhavani is THE most WONDERFUL pet sitter EVER!!! The care, attention to detail, follow up, professionalism, and the love she has for her job and her furry clients are just a few shining examples of her superior work ethic. We were gone for four days and I could enjoy my trip knowing she was there giving the best of care to Milo. There is a thorough interview before she takes the job and everything is covered to insure the best quality care will be given to your pets. I would definitely consider leaving my pet again with her if we go away on vacation .”
“Jessica is amazing. We could tell by all the pictures that Max had a ball during our vacation/his pupcation! We are so grateful to have found such an incredible sitter!”
“10-out-of-10 WILL RECOMMEND! Did a introduction a few weeks prior to the date and on sight my babies ran to Margarita! Like these little Cavapoos dragged me with the strength of pits trying to get to her! Her smile and laughter is so infectious, I could see why they were drawn to her! On their drop-off, from the moment they got out of the car, I was a nobody! I didn't know weather to be hurt or relived. I decided to choose relief! I watched my babies walk into Margarita's home as if they lived there! I received updates on their sleep time and on pick-up, they were very happy to have made a amazing friend in her and her entire family! I will use her again and again and am very grateful for the care and love she showed my babies!”
“Hollie and her husband cared for Rainey like their own. They kept to her routine, gave her medicines when needed, and made sure Rainey got plenty of exercise and playtime. They sent many updates every day. I was very comfortable leaving Rainey with them for the first time (for two weeks), she warmed up to them very quickly. Thank you both!”
“So thankful for Nan and her family for their loving care and love for Ichigo! She sent me updates along with photos and videos throughout the stay which gave me a big relief. She was content and calm when I came to pick her up, I can tell that she received plenty love and attention.”
“Anthony was very friendly toward us and coco. Coco came in to Anthony’s house and I could tell he fell at home. Anthony was very attentive to cocos need and I fell comfortable leaving with him. Everyday I got feedback and pictures from Anthony. I really appreciate the care that Anthony gave my baby boy. Thank you”
“I am so happy I found Isbath on Rover!! She’s a wonderful person, sitter, and my dogs loved her. I was nervous about finding a sitter who could handle my high energy puppy but Isbath had no problems, I think they actually bonded 😊. I have zero complaints I’m already planning on booking with her again for summer travel. Your pet will be in great hands with Isbath. If you’re on the fence this is your sign to book”
“Bonnie took amazing care of our yorkie Spike for 4nights. She and her husband scheduled a meet and greet where they had an initial interaction with Spike and talked to us about his needs/routine. Due to pancreas’s issues he is on a strict diet and likes to drink a lot of water. Bonnie accommodated this without issue, adjusted to Spikes routine, and gave him frequent potty breaks. She sent us pictures and videos multiple times a day, which I loved 🥰. We could tell he was comfortable by the images and when we returned to pick him up, could see that he was well taken care of and happy. Will definitely rebook again- Thank you Bonnie and family for taking such great care of Spike!!”
“We are absolutely pleased that we chose Jing to watch our Cash. She kept us updated every day with multiple videos of outside play and having a great time. Cash was well taken care of and will highly recommend Jing for anyone if they’re looking a dog sitter.”
“Max had a wonderful stay with Monica, and had the best time. Monica is very caring and took great care of Max, and it looks like he found a new friend in Jessie as well. We were very happy with the care Max got. Highly recommend Monica.”
“Na and her family took great care of my one year old retriever for 5-6 nights. He seemed to have a great time, and she even made him homemade meals . I got updates throughout my trip. I would certainly recommend Na to take care of your pet .”
“As an admitted helicopter dog mom, I get nervous every time I have to leave them behind but Melodie has put all my concerns to rest. Brooklyn and Peppa had a great time with her. They enjoyed walks, tug of war games and lots of snuggles. And the bonus? - Her home is immaculately clean and smells amazing! In one long weekend, she has officially become my go-to. I will be booking with her again!”
“Megan and Nick created the most comfortable home away from home for Brady. He came home so happy and energetic. We got regular updates and pictures which was comforting to know he was doing well throughout our trip. We would for sure recommend them and book them to watch Brady again.”
“My dogs had another wonderful stay with Lucas & Katherine, this time for two weeks. In fact my senior gal liked it there so much that she almost didn’t want to come back with me. I think for a pet parent that best and most positive sign that their furbabies were well cared for!!! They sent me lots of photos of my dogs snuggled under blankets or enjoying outdoor times! L & K are the best people and I feel like I can travel with so much less worry and guilt when my dogs are with them.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent experience! Lupe was fantastic with our dog! He was very communicative throughout the stay, sending daily updates with pictures and videos that gave us total peace of mind. It was clear he’s experienced and genuinely caring — our dog was relaxed and happy when we got back. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would definitely book with him again! Highly recommend it!”
“Vanessa was great to my baby Fiona! She sent me pictures/videos every day, but the best of all was to see how the entire family "adopted" her into their lives. When I picked Fiona back she was healthy and super happy!!! Vanessa is a great sitter!”
North Plainfield dog parents share their Rover experiences
We are beyond grateful for the amazing care my pup Bella received! From the very beginning, they were warm, kind, and reassuring. We received regular updates, photos, and messages that made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Bella was clearly well cared for,and loved. It means so much to know she was in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving for their fur baby!
Erika was exceptional and really made my dog feel comfortable and cared for! She was very responsive and accommodating and even kindly bought additional food when my dog ran out. She is fantastic since she made her availability even include Christmas holiday. She was always kind, patient, and understanding. I highly recommend her service to anyone in search of a top rated pet sitter!
Thanks for caring for our dog! We really appreciate that Connie was able to accommodate our request on short notice. In addition, our dog had special health needs. Connie took this in stride and wanted to ensure she followed the care plan exactly. Our pup seemed to have a lovely time!
Rishi and his family provided excellent communication, engagement, and care for our dog Stella. Rishi sent pictures & videos often and Stella looked VERY happy walking and playing with their dog Pearl. Even smiling while napping! They played together so nicely which was such a relief as Stella is timid around aggressive or too assertive of dogs.. Rishi and his family are true dog lovers and their dog Pearl is very well trained and sweet! I highly recommend, especially if your dog has a playful, easy going, and friendly temperament!
