About: I grew up with dogs in my home, and when I became a teacher over 10 years ago, I began dog walking and pet sitting for others, too, over my summer break. I have cared for dogs with a variety of needs, including high energy puppies, animals with anxiety, and elderly animals with mobility issues. As a teacher with summers off, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to spend as much time with your pets as is needed. We will have plenty of time for long walks, play sessions, and belly scratches. I will ensure your pet feels comfortable and loved in your home, even when you’re away. I will stick to whatever routine you’ve already established, treating your pet and your home with just as much care as you do.

“Mandi was absolutely the best with caring for our tuxedo cat Frenchy while we were gone for a week. All of her updates were detailed and her photos were great! She went above and beyond in giving us peace of mind knowing that our cat was well taken care of. I will not hesitate to use Mandi again and we will recommend her to all of my family & friends in the area. This was the first time we used Rover and am very impressed with it. Thanks again Mandi and “Go Pack Go ?”!”


About: I had a maltipoo who I cared for for 13 years so I am confident in caring for pups like her. I’ve also had to dog-sit some friends’ dogs who’d I bring for walks, play in the yard, and fill food and water bowls for them while gone! I generally work 3 days a week so I am looking to care and walk dogs for a couple other days during my week to fill my days. I will make sure to close all doors that I have entered and make sure the dog is back in the house before leaving. I will make sure I put everything back to where they were and fill any bowls that I am instructed to make sure the dogs are comfortable until their owners or next person comes to see them!

About: Caring for animals isn’t just something I do it’s been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and have been looking after them my whole life, so understanding their needs, personalities, and quirks comes naturally to me. I currently have 3 dogs and 1 cat of my own, each with their own unique story and personality, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Two of my pets came from difficult pasts: one of my dogs was rescued from an abusive home, and my cat was found living on the street. Helping them heal, trust, and feel safe again has taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and consistency in animal care. Those experiences have shaped how I approach every pet I meet whether they’re shy, energetic, or somewhere in between, I make sure they feel loved and comfortable. When you trust me with your pet, you can be sure they’ll be treated like family. I pay attention to their routines, their likes and dislikes, and I’m committed to giving them not only the basics like food, water, and exercise but also plenty of affection, playtime, and comfort while you’re away. Your pet’s happiness and well-being will always be my top priority. Caring for animals is woven into my everyday life. Each morning starts with feeding, fresh water, and some playtime or walks for my pets, making sure they start the day happy and energized. Throughout the day, I check in regularly for cuddle breaks, grooming, and any special needs they might have. In the evenings, we have another round of walks, play, or quiet bonding time before bed. On a weekly basis, I make time for deeper cleaning, restocking supplies, and longer outdoor adventures. Because I already live in a rhythm centered around animals, adding care for other pets naturally blends into my schedule your pets will get the same attention, love, and consistency I give my own. When caring for pets my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow their normal routines as closely as possible, from feeding schedules and walk times to playtime and cuddles. I pay close attention to their behavior and body language so I can meet their needs, whether that’s extra play for energetic pets or quiet company for more relaxed ones. In my home, pets have a clean, cozy space to relax, plenty of fresh water, and a safe environment to explore. In a client’s home, I respect their space and care for it just as I would my own, making sure pets feel secure and happy in their familiar surroundings.


“Delaney was amazing! She was so friendly, reliable, and clearly cares about animals. She kept me updated with photos and my cats warmed up to her so quickly. She even went the extra mile to clean their food mat and offered to take out our trash so the house wouldn’t smell when we got home. I came back to happy, relaxed pets and everything spotless. 10/10 would recommend — she’s the best!”


“First time using Rover app service, Found Christine, she was great with Tiger and her job. Completed assignments that we asked her to watched over Tiger for 2 drop in visiting and took him for walk as well. Thank you Christine for help us checked in Tiger.”


About: I love all animals and will care for them whether they are healthy, have disabilites or have any needs that need to be cared for. I am working part time but would like to eventually become more full time to gain experience to go into the field of caring for animals as a vet tech. Follow the rules of the house and the owner. Make sure each pet is treated with the care and patience that is needed for their care.

We’re not just here for walks or sitting—we’re here to make your dog feel safe, happy, and at home. We’ve had a natural skill for reading body language, creating instant bonds, and making every visit feel like time with a trusted friend. From senior dogs who just need a slow stroll and gentle company, to excited puppies still learning the ropes—we adjust our approach to fit each furry friend. Our pet parents often say their pup feels so comfortable with us and that we’ve become their little friend, that is the best compliment we could ask for. My husband and I am want to make this our one of our main sources of income. We will both be available weekdays and pretty flexible slots on the weekends. We are ready to offer a good schedules to build trusted clients and pet care experience. We always make sure to follow our clients wishes and rules. This pup is a part of the family, so we treat them with special care to ensure a safe and loving experience. We make sure the pup feels comfortable with us and with our tender affections, quickly doesn’t take long for them to do so.


“We brought Sherman (our Frenchie) home a few weeks ago when he was 11 weeks old. We wanted to find someone who could visit with Sherman during the day for the first few months and when he gets older take him for walks while we are at work. Neil and Sherman hit it off instantly during the meet and greet. Neil sends us text and picture updates each day he visits with Sherman so we never have to worry. We are so happy we found Neil.”


About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals throughout my life. It has always and will always be my passion. Animals are one of the best creations ever made and should be treated as such. I am making this my full time career. When your babies need me I will be there. You just tell me when and where and it will be done I don't not offer this service as I live in an apartment. Hopefully in the near future I will be able to buy a house and offer this service

About: Cats have always held a special place in my heart, and I take pride in offering care that goes beyond the basics. With years of experience caring for cats of all kinds, I’ve developed a keen sense for what makes them tick and what keeps them content. I’m dedicated to creating a comfortable, stress-free environment that feels like home, even when you’re away. I pay close attention to the details that matter, from ensuring their favorite napping spot is just right to maintaining a clean and inviting litter box. I’m mindful of their daily routines and preferences, whether it’s sticking to a specific feeding schedule or offering the perfect balance of play and quiet time. What I truly enjoy is building a connection with each cat I care for, taking the time to understand their unique quirks and needs. My approach is always gentle and patient, aiming to make your cat feel safe and well-loved. Knowing that your cat is happy and comfortable allows you to enjoy peace of mind, confident that they’re in the care of someone who genuinely understands and cherishes them. I have the flexibility to be home which allows me to dedicate my time and attention to caring for pets. My schedule is adaptable, so I can easily fit pet care into my daily routine, whether it’s spending quality time with your cat, ensuring they’re well-fed, or just being present to keep them company. This setup not only allows me to provide consistent care but also ensures that your pet has someone attentive and reliable around. Caring for pets in my home is something I take very seriously, ensuring that every animal feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I create a warm and welcoming environment tailored to each pet's needs, whether it's setting up a cozy space for them to relax or keeping their feeding and play schedules consistent. I make sure they have plenty of fresh water, clean litter boxes, and engaging activities to keep them happy and stimulated. I also spend quality time with each pet, offering companionship, play, and affection to make them feel right at home.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 9 years, from energetic puppies to gentle senior pups. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and give plenty of love to their pets. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I treat every furry friend like my own. I can also help with basic training, giving medication, and providing extra snuggles to make them feel safe and happy. I’m available most days for dog walking, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I work in the city on Tuesdays and Wednesdays (home by 6:30 PM), but all other days I’m home and can provide flexible care throughout the day. Weekends are also open for longer walks, playtime, or overnight stays. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I follow all instructions carefully, keep a close eye on pets during walks or play, and ensure they’re never left unattended in unsafe situations. I’m experienced with leash handling, keeping dogs calm around distractions, and making sure they feel happy and secure in my care. Whether at your home or during walks, I treat every pet like my own.

Katherine Z.
“Kate has been our first choice when we needed a dog sitter for over 10 years. We have used her service on several occasions, most often when we vacation during the summer months and had to leave our dogs alone for extended periods of time. During the times we were absent from home, she stayed in communication with us on a regular basis, sent us many photos and videos of our dogs, and texted us regularly with updates. She has always eliminated the stress of leaving the dogs and house behind for long periods of time. Most importantly, Kate is trustworthy, and our dogs love her. We would be happy to provide personal references upon request.”

Passaic dog parents share their Rover experiences
While I was away, Tania took amazing care of my Doberman and Chihuahua. She was incredibly informative, kept me in the loop the entire time, and made being away from my dogs so much easier. She sent updates with pictures and videos, which was not only helpful but also super cute and reassuring.Both of my dogs were comfortable and clearly well cared for I could tell they were happy and relaxed with her. Tania treated them like her own and handled them with so much patience and love. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be reaching out to her again!

We had the pleasure of having Melissa care for our miniature poodle, Sabana, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. She was attentive, responsible, and genuinely caring throughout the entire time. Melissa listened to all of our personal requests and followed through on them perfectly—from playtime to potty breaks and everything in between. It was clear that she treated our puppy as if she were her own, and we truly appreciated her going above and beyond to ensure our pup felt comfortable, safe, and happy during her drop-ins. We would absolutely recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter. Don’t hesitate to request her—you’ll be glad you did!

Martha was a big help to us while we had to go out of the country for a last minute family emergency. She took great care of Max and was so sweet and patient with him. We really appreciated the updates and photos she sent, which gave us peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. Thank you so much, Martha. It really means a lot to us. We would definitely trust her with Max again!

I recently moved to NJ with my two year old German shepherd mix, I work hybrid with going into NYC 3 days a week, Neil has made the transition so smooth for both Zuko and I. He sends me updates everyday time he walks him and advice on handling his constant pulling and chasing of anything. We are both thankful for Neil!

Rivera is the absolute best! She made sure to keep me updated the entire time and gave my sweet pup so much love. You can tell the genuine care she has for pets. It's truly the little things. I will be booking with her from here on out! Wish I could give a thousand stars ⭐️
