About: Hi! My name is Megan and my passion in life is animals! I’ve always wanted to work with dogs and this seemed like the perfect job for me! I have four fur babies of my own that I love dearly. They come everywhere with me. I have always be an animal lover every since i was a little girl and dreamt of being a vet. I have raised 6 litters of puppies as well! I have cared for animals for many years and have dog/cat sat for my neighbors, family, and friends. I also love walking my dogs everyday while enjoying nature. I love animals of all sizes! I am currently an online college student and a stay at home dog mom. I am very flexible and available most days to watch or walk your baby! I make sure the clients home is always locked up before leaving and the the pet is safe and secure in the home. The safety of your pet is my number one priority!
“Mark was an amazing Rover for our dog! He gave her plenty of exercise and attention and sent several update photos over the course of the day. His backyard was perfect for Penny to run around and he was the perfect care taker for our fur baby!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was little. I love taking care and helping animals, I used to work at red bank vet and I currently am a part time orthodontic assistant! I am pretty flexible! My hours do change weekly but I would love to discuss and make it work for you and your pets needs! I have a fenced in yard and 3 dogs and 2 cats to play with. Dogs can easily go in the crate or I have a separate room if your dogs needs.
About: As a life long dog owner, I know how important it is to have someone else in your circle to care for your pets. I have raised my own lab from a puppy and trained her to be the best house dog she can be! I love to be active and on the go! Senior dogs who want to soak up every moment this life has to offer is also in my wheel house. I'm currently working part time as a substitute teacher and I am done for the day around 2:30 pm. I will have evenings free for walks and boarding. I don't have children of my own, so offering services for pets is a way I can contribute to this new community I have found myself in. I have a fenced in yard and access to an open walking path within walking distance of my home. As a PE teacher, I am very active and love to stay moving after school. I have always believed a tired dog, is a happy dog :) I also have experience in nannying and professional organizing, so staying in a client's home is also something I am privy to.
“When I go away, Trupti and Anmol and their lovely family take amazing care of my bichon boy. He is so happy with them and the love they bestow on him. I am so fortunate that I can travel and feel so assured and peaceful knowing he is with them. Highly recommend.”
“Anouk is absolutely amazing! I highly recommend her, as she goes above and beyond to ensure my dog is taken care of, happy, healthy and she also communicates (all good and bad things) in timely manner.”
“Meg and her family took very great care of our precious Belle!!! Meg sent us pictures and updates throughout Belle's stay with them!!! Thank you and hopefully some time in the near future you can watch her again for us!!!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience. I currently serve as an active board member for a non-profit rescue and have a passion for providing attentive, reliable care to every pet like they’re my own. I have experience with medication administration, basic veterinary care, and handling animals with different personalities and needs. At home, I have my Aussie, Harley, plus a fully fenced one-acre yard perfect for safe play and exercise. I’m active, dependable, and excited to provide loving care! I currently have a flexible work schedule with ability to WFH. Walks available weekdays and weekends and boarding available in my home ! ! ! My yard is about a half acre fully fenced in, trails behind which I am able to take dogs on walks and a quiet private cul de sac for walks. I have a 5yr old Australian Shepherd who is very playful and always looking for friends , but is respectful of the boundaries of another dog if they do not like to play.
“Monika was very easy to work with and provided daily updates with images and videos. When we had to pick Rūmī up, he did not want to leave Finn and all the friends he made during his stay. I would highly recommend considering Monika for your future pet sitting/boarding needs.”
“Thank you Kaela and family for having Sammy. I am sure Sammy had a good time with you and family. I would recommend Kaela to anyone who needs fur-sitting. She reply your text/request immediately. And she sends pictures every day. And I have peace of mind knowing that my Sammy is in good hands. Thank you again ! Sammy says thank you woof woof ..🐶”
“My pup Django loved his time with Carol Ann! She is the sweetest and spent lots of time with him - he even got sick to his stomach halfway through the trip and she made sure to nurse him back to health. Had no worries at all while away on our one week vacay!”
“Sydney was absolutely wonderful with Luna. She consistently sent pictures and thoughtful updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. Luna looked genuinely happy and comfortable in her care. I truly can’t recommend Sydney enough!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and genuinely feel they’re meant to be by your side. I have hands-on experience with senior care, helping an older dog walk, carrying him when needed, and keeping him comfortable. Dogs understand emotions and give unconditional support, and I make sure to return that same care, patience, and love to every dog I watch. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work part-time about 25–30 hours a week at a nearby job, which gives me plenty of flexibility. I can consistently provide walks, attention, feeding, and care throughout the day, making sure your dog is never neglected and always looked after In a client’s home, I stick closely to your dog’s routine to keep them comfortable and happy. I handle feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care needed. I’m very respectful of your space, always clean up after myself and the dog, and make sure your home stays in great condition while you’re away.
“Thank you Kimberley for taking care of Vito. Your kindness and knowledge of my senior dog was incredible. I want to also thank you for your patience with me as I was a first time user of Rover and was a little awkward in using the app. I enjoyed my time at my event because I knew Vito was in safe hands. Thank you.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Oak Ridge
EXCELLENT!!!!!!!! I was nervous - it was my first time leaving my boy with a stranger. I met Carol a few weeks before and Percy (my dog) acted as if he has been to her house before. He made himself comfortable from the start. In later returned to leave him for a few days. It went fantastic!! Percy seemed to have enjoyed his "vacation". I already booked my next sitting with Carol. Definitely recommend.
Avigail( Abby) was absolutely awesome ! She always kept me informed about Roscoe and sent pictures everyday , walking him and hanging out with her and her golden retriever ! They were buddies ! She made us feel so content on our vacation! We knew he was in the best of hands !! Will definitely use her again if we go back to the shores for vacation! Thank you Abby so much ! Roscoe is a very happy camper on our ride home thanks to you :)

Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
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.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
