“Michael has been absolutely wonderful with our doggo! He has such a care and attention to her needs, and even helped out when she got into trouble and got into our pantry lol. We have a reactive dog, and he's been great with taking her for walks and managing her energy and needs safely. We can tell that she is very comfortable with him, and would recommend Micheal to anyone with a furry friend! :)”


“Felix took great care of my cat while I was away! He was super reliable, had great communication, and sent plenty of pictures, which gave me peace of mind. My cat seemed happy and well cared for when I got back. Would definitely book with Felix again!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for family, neighbors and friends for 16+ years. Always knew they were special. I’m the happiest around my furry friends. Started when i was about 10 years young when my neighbor would ask me to walk her puppy, buddy but would give specific instructions such as how far i could walk him which was just around the corner and back home. Since then I’ve been dog-sitting here and there. Now, working remotely I’ve decided it’s time to get started again. I work remote, I’m always home. My little bear and i go on a morning walks everyday at 11/1130. And in the evening. Sometimes if it’s a rainy day i drive him over by petsmart where it’s an enclosed area. Have breaks in between calls where we can enjoy playtime. I’m very careful when it comes to dropping food on the floor if i do it gets picked up within seconds my little guy is always ready to vacuum the floor, i’m always cautious. I don’t leave food out in the open. Always provide fresh water. Bottled water that is unless they prefer tap. Make sure they get the exercise they need. I love having little training sessions. It’s good for their little brains. Will follow feeding instructions. Will spend time with the dog. Give them space as well by allowing them to sniff around before anything. Being aware of their needs.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a child. Lots of experience in caring for dog and dog walking. I also have experience in caring for a pet after surgery and administering medication. I understand how important it is for your dog to be comfortable while you are away from home. I work full-time, but I work from home two days a week. Those days I would be available for dog walking or checking in on your pet. Could do in-home sitting, preferably on weekends, but should be able to fit weekdays schedule also. I would be caring for your pet in your home. This would make them the most comfortable being in their own house. I will try to stick to the same routines that the owner does.

About: I love dogs so much. I have two dogs of my own. One is a 3 month year old pit-bull mixed and the other is a silky Yorkie they are both very very friendly and loving. I've been into dog sitting for the past year because dogs for some reason speaks to me sometimes I feel like I have a connection with them. I would be honored to work with someone's dog as much and as long as they need me. my family always thinks im crazy because of the connection i have with all different types of dogs. i love big and small dogs no matter what i will care for them as if they are my own animal. i love dogs very much.

About: I've been dog walking, sitting, boarding for over 10 years now! I had my German Shepherd Rony for 10 years and my life changed the day we brought him home. Because of him I have a super active lifestyle. I live to go on walks, hikes, runs, and love to explore new places and go on adventures! I've taken care of puppies that need basic training all the way to senior dogs that need extra care. From the smallest pups all the way to giants - I adore them all!! I am working from home, so your pet will always get endless love, belly rubs, walks, and anything and everything else they love! Having had my German shepherd that I trusted only a handful of people to take care of him, I understand the level of trust a pet owner must have for their pet sitter / walker, and I know I can be that temporary companion for them! :) hope to meet your pup soon!! I'm currently working from home so I am very flexible on walks, daily care, and pup sitting! I do request for dog sitting to get an early heads up as we love adventuring during the weekend. But if pet owner is ok with it, I would love to bring your pup along for the adventures!! :) I have a big fenced yard for plenty running and playing fetch, but I never leave your pup unattended! If needed, and your pup is crate trained I have different sized playpens and crates. I understand it takes every pup a different amount of time to get used to a new environment and I work with every pup individually. Just like humans, everyone has their own personality :)

About: I’ve owned dogs since I was seven. I have experience being around dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. While I have no formal experience training dogs, I have yet to meet one that doesn’t like me. Working part time with weekends available at the moment. Weekdays I’m available anytime after 2, also happy to commute to your home for visits and walks. I have no problem going on as long or as short of a walk as your dog needs. I always keep water and extra disposable bags handy as well. I also have experience with antisocial/aggressive pups, so no worries if your dog needs a little extra patience.

About: I've taken care of 3 dogs over the course of 15 years. Loved them dearly. Now I care for my sister's Bernese Mountain Dog, on weekends. I now own two cats, becoming both a dog and cat lover. I have experience caring for senior dogs as well as puppies, and cats of all ages, and will love your fur child like they're my own! I work full time as a technical fashion designer in NYC. I always have freetime daily Friday - Sunday, and most weekdays after 6pm. I can walk, feed, play and even care for sickly fur babies if needed. I live on a large apt complex with plenty of grass and trees, alongside a river. I also have an outside balcony to just relax on. Your dog will enjoy the outdoors/ long walks during warm months, and even cold months too.

About: hi! i’m bella — a big-time dog lover without a dog of my own (my mom’s highly allergic, so i live vicariously through everyone else’s pups 🐶). working with rover gives me the perfect chance to love on all the furry friends i can’t keep at home. whether your pup needs a walk, a quick check-in, or just some extra belly rubs, i’m happy to help however i can. can’t wait to meet your dog and be their new favorite human (in line next to you of course!!) ! 🐾 here’s a quick look at my availability: • monday–wednesday: i’m usually available between 5:30–7:30 pm • thursday: free after 5:30 pm until whenever • weekends: totally flexible and open! when i’m caring for your pets in your home, i treat it like my own — with respect, cleanliness, and calm energy. i always follow your instructions closely, whether it’s routines, feeding, or special quirks your pup may have. i do my best to create a safe and peaceful environment where your dog feels secure and comfortable while you’re away.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and am a huge dog lover. As I have yet to get a pup of my own, I’ve been sitting for family, friends, and family friends for more than 5 years, where I mainly housesit. I’ve had experience watching dogs of all ages, from grumpy seniors with medication to lively puppies who need extra clean up time, to anxious Covid babies. I am very detail-oriented as I respect that each dog has their personal routine and want to ensure that not much is disrupted for them when I visit/stay. I understand the importance of keeping in contact with owners (only to the extent that you wish to be contacted) throughout the day. I guarantee that I will take plenty of photos of your pet and will be happy to share them! Note: I am based near Princeton, NJ but have moved my service location to be able to capture NYC for housesits. I work fully remotely, so I'm flexible to working with your pet's schedule when housesitting. I'm available for afternoon walks, or to come to housesit from the evenings usually. I'm also willing to travel to housesit (I've travelled to DC before!), though this would require travel coverage as part of compensation. ***For house sits of 1 week or longer, I ask owners to support in covering my meals. Gift cards or a stocked fridge are very much appreciated! *** I tend to ask clients for a document with their pet's daily routine, and how their behaviours are. I will care for your pets as you would advise to care for them in order to maintain consistency and not confuse them. Afterall, I am the guest in staying in their space should I be housesitting. For walks and drop-ins, I would like to also respect your pet's routine and ensure that they are comfortable and at ease.


“Kellie watched over our 2 kitties for a week while we were away. She was extremely reliable and during that time kept them well fed and their litter boxes clean. I would definitely recommend Kellie!”


About: Pet lover at your service. I am located in Sayreville, NJ with a life time of experience with animals. I am not a certified trainer, but I take pride in my 2 Australian Shepherds that I’ve had a blast training tricks and obedience. I am happy to assist with basic commands and obedience during your furbabys stay or walk as much as I can. Alternatively, I can provide a safe and loving interaction with as much or little exercise your fur child requires. I am happy to accommodate any breed or size, as long as your dog shows no signs of aggression. Please reach out to me with any questions. Thank you for your time! My schedule is very open and flexible to take on new clients for house visits and walks. Depending on how many clients I have, I will try my best to fit you in! With two fur babies of my own, I understand how important it is to find a trust worthy sitter. Every animal deserves to have respect, love, and positive interactions. I like to ask clients to make a helpful list including personality traits, allergies, likes and dislikes, so I can care for your baby appropriately. I can provide one on one attention to your pet if he or she is timid, senior, or not well socialized with other animals.

Maribel E.
“I don’t trust many people with watching my babies, but Bella is one of few that I do trust whole-heartedly. She has taken care of our dog, Roman several of times and always sends photo updates throughout the night with how much he’s being spoiled. She’s also checked in on our cat, Chloe multiple times and make sure her food and water bowl are good to go. She even goes the extra mile and spends time with her to make sure she eats and gets a little comfort from a familiar adult. The way she cares for her fur baby, speaks volumes as to the kind of fur mama that she is! I promise she will spoil your baby more than you could imagine and they’d be in great care!”


Marie H.

Once she moved to New Jersey, though no longer my neighbor, she offered to watch my pets anytime, which I appreciate.”
