“Brittney’s super sweet with my fur baby boy. She’s always on time, never late, and makes sure my baby is given rubs and love during her visits ? Will definitely book her again. Thanks Brittney !!!”

“Lauren was ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!! She took care of Tilly our “spicy” and sometimes difficult cat with ease. She always sent us photos and was very communicative. I will definitely hire her again when needed and would highly recommend!!!”

About: Hello! I’m an experienced pet lover with over 5 years on Rover, caring for pets of all shapes and sizes. As the proud owner of two Great Danes, ages 1 and 2, I understand the needs of larger breeds, from daily exercise to specialized care. My experience with these gentle giants has taught me patience, attention to detail, and how to handle big personalities with ease. Whether you need someone to walk, feed, or simply keep your pets company, you can trust me to provide the care and love they deserve. Looking forward to meeting your furry family members! I work at schools and have a lot of flexibility in the summer to meet your needs. My experience with large breeds means I’m comfortable managing pets of all sizes, ensuring they get the exercise, companionship, and attention they need. I look forward to giving your pets a safe and caring environment while you’re away! Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities during every visit, walk and stay. When caring for pets in their own homes, I ensure a safe environment by following your routines and respecting any special instructions you provide. I take precautions to make sure doors, gates, and other potential escape points are secure, and I always keep your pet on a leash during walks, using proper harnesses or collars to prevent accidents. I’m also vigilant about their surroundings to avoid any risks, such as unsafe plants, other animals, or traffic. Building trust with you and your pet is essential. I keep communication open, sharing updates and photos so you know how things are going and feel reassured that your pet is in good hands. With my flexible schedule, I’m able to dedicate time and attention to meet each pet’s unique needs, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and cared for even when you’re not there.
“From the reports and Rover card photos Izzy really enjoyed Emma's company, and despite being a shy cat, he came out and let her brush him right away. She made me feel comfortable leaving Izzy in someone else's care for the first time. I will definitely book her for my next trip, if she's available.”


About: Hi, I’m Katelynn! I have 2 years of experience working as a veterinary assistant, where I became comfortable caring for animals with patience, attention to detail, and a calm approach. I also regularly watched my neighbor’s dog from 2015 until 2018, giving me hands-on experience with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and keeping a pet safe and comfortable while their owner was away. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m gentle, reliable, and attentive, especially with pets who may be nervous, shy, older, or need a little extra patience. I will treat your pet like part of the family and keep you updated so you know they are safe and cared for. I have plenty of availability for pet care, especially during the summer. Since I do not drive, I am best suited for local walks, nearby drop-in visits, or care where the owner can handle drop-off and pick-up. I’m happy to spend time playing, walking, feeding, and keeping your pet company while following their normal routine as closely as possible. Alternatively, my husband can drop me off and pick me up. I care for pets with patience, attention, and respect for their routine. I have 2 years of experience as a veterinary assistant, so I understand how important safety, clear instructions, and careful observation are. I also regularly watched my neighbor’s dog from 2015 to 2018, which gave me hands-on experience with feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. In a client’s home, I will follow all instructions for feeding, potty breaks, walks, medications if discussed ahead of time, and household rules. I will make sure doors, gates, leashes, and crates are secure, and I will send updates so owners know their pet is safe and cared for. I’m especially patient with shy, nervous, senior, or sensitive pets.
About: Since I was young I have always been drawn to caretaking of animals, and so whenever a neighbor or friend went away I did the pet sitting in their homes! I previously worked at a doggy daycare and board, so I have plenty of experience in taking care of dogs needs, including things like medication. Currently, I work in an animal shelter, which includes different feedings and walking of various breeds of dogs! I am also currently studying conservation and wildlife management in university, and will be taking a multitude of caretaking classes that will help me take care of your animals as well. I currently work a few days a week at an animal shelter. My usual work days are from 8-3, and anywhere outside of that time I will be free to hang with your pets! If I have two weeks notice of a booking, I can also schedule shorter work hours to make sure I meet your pets needs. When I care for pets in their homes, I prioritize the wellbeing of the animal, including comfort and routine. I will follow their day-to-day feeding and exercise schedules while also giving the animals some love! I will also keep owners up to date with pictures, and will reach out with updates if needed!

About: I’ve always had pets as a kid, and the same as an adult! It’s a privilege to be able to care for my own “babies” and others ❤️ I have two cats and a dog, so my days are quite pet-oriented. The cats need a little less care than my dog, but they all get loved equally 🥰 I treat my animals extremely well, and other pets I treat like my own! All animals are important to love and care for, big or small 😇
About: We own a local family pet care business; and we believe every pet deserves to be treated like family. With years of hands-on experience, advanced training, and a lifelong passion for animals, we provide reliable, loving care for pets of all kinds. I’ve lived with animals my whole life—dogs, cats, birds, and small pets—so creating a safe, comforting space for them comes naturally. With over 25 years of hands-on experience, I’ve worked with pets of all ages and needs, from energetic puppies to seniors and special-needs animals who require extra patience and understanding. I’m trained in Pet First Aid and always focus on maintaining steady routines and low-stress care. Whether your pet needs playtime, calm companionship, medication reminders, or just someone gentle they can trust, I’m here to make them feel at home while you’re away. My family also loves giving back to the community—we regularly donate to local shelters to help support animals in need. Caring for pets isn’t just something I do; it’s a part of who I am. My schedule is flexible and I’m available most days of the week. This allows me to give your pets the time and attention they deserve — and makes it easier for you to book care that fits their routine. I always supervise outdoor time to ensure they’re safe and happy. I make sure the environment is clean and tidy. My goal is to ensure they feel at home while their owners are away, with a mix of outdoor fun, indoor comfort, and plenty of love.
About: I’ve been taking my care of dogs for over 25+ years! I have spent time with puppies to senior dogs of all sizes. I currently work overnights from 4pm-3am on Tuesday and Thursday and Saturday 1pm-3am; outside of those times I would love to spend time with your dog. If you have any special requests or needs let me know. I am open to discussing bringing your dog(s) to and from special events if needed (I.e. weddings, showers, dinners, family event, etc.) I work Tuesday and Thursday from 4p-3a and Saturday 1p-3a at an emergency Veterinary hospital. Outside of that time I enjoy spending time with my dog or yours! I am familiar with crate training. Different types of leashes. I'm all ears to your dog’s needs, schedule, and comfort! I have experience with anti-social, scared of thunder and other loud noises, jumping fences, counter surfing NJ, poor walking skills, and so much more!!
“Sarah is fantastic! She came to our house and played with our dog, Natalie, while we were gone for the day. We received an update and photos at the end of the visit, which we really appreciated. Thank you, Sarah! Natalie can’t wait to see you again :)”

“Grace and Brett were amazing! They treated Mila like she was their own! I was nervous at first (always am when someone new comes to keep an eye on her), but they immediately loved on our girl! They were attentive and super communicative! Loved the pictures they sent throughout! I WILL book them again!”


“We had such a great experience! Our request was very last minute, and she was incredibly accommodating and responsive. She even came by before our trip to go over everything, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was so kind, attentive, and clearly cares about the animals she looks after. She not only took great care of our cats, but was also able to check on our chickens, which we really appreciated. It made being away so much easier knowing all of our animals were in such good hands. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter!”

“Allie provides excellent care and attention to our cat during her visits. She provides expert documentation via the report cards, which gives me much peace of mind. I book with Allie time after time for while we are away. I know my very particular (11 year old) Siamese is in expert hands.”

“I discovered I had no one to watch my to somewhat challenging dogs the night before a work event. Jake was professional, offered to have a quick meet and greet before the next day's visit, and showed up on time for both visits. I added a laundry list of concerns to my dog's profile. Luckily my dog loved Jake within 5 minutes of meeting him. So much so, that when my husband returned early and accidentally let Xara escape from the house, it was Jake my dog allowed herself to be caught by. She doesn't allow anyone but her besties to get near her when she is loose.”

“Sam was absolutely wonderful with our cat while we were away. She was able to give him his insulin every day no problem and went above and beyond in making sure he was loved while we were gone.”

“Sarah is amazing! She is very responsive to messages, is very attentive to all of those little instructions we express about our fur babies and- most of all- they love her! Highly recommend!”
