About: Hi! I’m a full-time work-from-home dog lover who provides a safe, loving, and active environment for your pup while you’re away. Because I work from home, your dog will get plenty of attention, supervision, companionship, and care throughout the day — not be left alone for long hours. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor playtime, and my family loves spending time outside on walks, playing, and enjoying fresh air with our furry guests. We also have children who are gentle, caring, and experienced around dogs. Caring for animals has always been a big part of our lives, and I regularly dog sit for family and friends. Recently, we had to say goodbye to our longtime family dog due to age and health issues, which only deepened our appreciation for the love and companionship pets bring into a home. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your dog, and I’ll treat your pet like part of the family — with lots of love, patience, attention, and belly rubs. Whether your dog loves walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm place to relax, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for during their stay. I currently work from home full time so your pet will not be left alone. I have the flexibility for walks during the day and a fully fenced yard for play time outside. I have a large fenced yard that pets always will be able to go in as well as a walking friendly neighborhood. We will follow your lead we do allow pets in bed and on furniture but will also crate if that is how your dog is comfortable.
“Kevin was fantastic to work with! He was communicative, respectful, conscientious of my needs, accommodating, and frankly such a caring individual. He helped me plan an out of state visit, was flexible concerning the timing, and best of all tired out my dog by the end of the trip. I would absolutely book with Kevin again!”
“I can’t express enough how wonderful Sara was with our little Peanut. I had come to grips with the fact that I probably won’t be able to go anywhere this summer because I didn’t want to take my dog somewhere where they would crate her or where she would be with a bunch of other dogs until I found Sara. She was absolutely wonderful and she treated her like one of the family. She only takes one dog or one household of pets at a time which makes me feel even more comfortable. My puppy absolutely adored her and her family and so did I! Thank you Sara for all your did. I know you will see Peanut every time we are away or even just out for the day like we did today.”
“Myah had a great time at Jamie's playing with Ollie! This was her first time and she was excited to be going when we pulled in the driveway. She came home very happy and tired!”
“Alice is great with my special needs senior dog Porter. He is happy every time he sees her, and she is very responsible with catering to his special needs, allergies and medical conditions. She is very communicative and lets me know any changes observed in Porter during his stay, plus sends cute pictures regularly. I trust her with my deaf/blind senior completely.”
“Jinjie was absolutely amazing with Mika! She was so kind and careful with her, and it really showed. Mika always seemed genuinely happy coming home from her stays, which says everything. She kept me updated with tons of adorable pictures and videos throughout, which I loved. Beyond that, she just seems like an absolutely great person, I felt completely at ease knowing Mika was in such caring hands. Can't recommend her enough! And will definitely book her again!!”
“Kavya did a great job helping me take care of my 3 last minute. I would def use her services again! The dogs loved her and her family and they made them Feel right at home”
“Dhruvit was amazing we needed a last minute dog sitter for our new puppy and can’t say enough how much we appreciated Dhruvit with all the updates throughout the day including pictures. Will definitely be a repeat customer. Highly recommend Dhruvit.”
“Bonnie was extremely caring for my Bruno Mars. He was happy and tired when he got home which was great. I an very thankful she was able to take him on short notice. I cant thank her enough”
“Thank you very much Jacqueline for your excellent and cordial care. I feel very comfortable and confident. I definitely recommend the good service that Jacqueline provides. Five stars are to few for you !!!”
“Bhavani gave EXCELLENT care to my puppy. She and her family were so attentive and treated my puppy like their own. They are AMAZING and WONDERFUL people. I will be bringing him back again to be under his care in the future. A+++”
“As soon as we turn the corner Bruno knows he’s going to Katie’s house and loves visiting. It's always a fun day filled with other doggie friends and new activities. Katie is simply wonderful and informative throughout the day. Bruno can’t wait to return!”
About: Book with me. To ensure you have the best sitter for your pup, I provide a safe, warming, calm, fun environment when booked for an overnight stay at my place. Constant walks throughout the day. Always keep about two bowls of water around the house and provide daily morning exercise routines (my morning walks/jogs). I do recommend clients/parents to provide food and treats for dogs and keep me aware of any allergies or habits the pup has. I have no problem buying treats or toys as long as it’s okay with the client/parent. This also goes for traveling to clients/parents homes.
“Lenny is very accommodating and caring! I am very grateful to have found her for Oreo. Oreo is now 15 yrs old and gets anxious, but Lenny has made her feel safe and comfortable! I highly recommend her and rely on her for Oreo!”
“Apollo had such a a great stay. He didn't want to leave. Drop and pick up was a breeze and they loved on my baby!!!! Isbath and her family were very much accommodating during his stay. We ran into some unexpected issues during pickup time. The level of compassion, combined with their flexibility, was heartfelt. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Apollo can't wait for next hangout sesh!”
“My first time using Rover and Ginette was amazing! Bruno felt very comfortable with her and she constantly keep me updated with videos and photos and had a deep understanding of how much I spoil Bruno and that he’s my baby. I’ll be using her all the time.”

Barbora is always a delight and the best! I know if my Roxie could speak she would request to go to her everyday! Barbora makes Roxie feel so comfortable and happy, while also giving us peace of mind that Roxie is with someone who is safe and caring about her well being! If you need a dog sitter who you can trust and your dog will be happy with look no further then Barbora!
Megan is beyond words amazing. She looked after our pupper, and we could not ask for anyone better. We honestly wished she lived closer to us so we could use her more often. We dropped our older arthritic boy off with her for a few hours while we attended an appointment close by. Without having met her before, our dog was instantly comfortable with her. In a few hours, he was in love. She took perfect care of him, having water ready when we arrived and going above and beyond to make him comfortable. Very much appreciate that she has an "intake" where she asks pertinent useful questions and communicates with us about what's best for the dog while he is in her care. She sends copious amounts of photos (love it) and communicates while we are out to let us know how he is doing. I cannot recommend Megan enough. Top notch person and dogsitter.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Parlin commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 9,093 sitters in Parlin, 86% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
