“Julie has been the BEST. So communicative and helpful, she’s truly made this an awesome experience. 10/10 would recommend for anyone, but especially for first time Rover users (like me)!”

About: I’ve had dogs and watched dogs since I moved to this area in 2006. I love to take them for walks and give lots of scratches. Dogs are just the best. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I also don’t start until 8:30 or 9 so early mornings are good. I am up late also so any time at night is fine. My home has a fenced in yard. For other homes I would take the dogs for a walk, refresh water, give a treat and make sure they’re all settled before heading out
“Alyssa did amazing! My request was short notice and she was able to accommodate her schedule time to drop in with Pongo. Loved the updates, and she has a great communication. Thank you so much for helping.”

“Janelle was amazing! My fur babies were well taken care of especially my very introverted cat. She gives updates everyday so i felt at ease. Highly recommended and would book her again on my next out of the town travel🩷”

About: I have experience with larger dogs, small dogs, and cats as well. I help cater to any special needs or requests you may have such as administering medicine, special diets, and keeping you updated on their well being. Good for quick walks or staying with your pet overnight. I worked in everyday in Brooklyn, NY as a dog walker/pet sitter from 2019 to 2023. I have since then have been traveling around as a pet sitter for the last two years in-between taking care of some important family business. I have grown up raising German Shepherds all of my life and love to know that I am helping someone's day out by being able to care for their pet while they are not able to. I am currently available for any time and can even travel to you if needed for extended overnight stays. Your pet's needs come first for me. I will care for your pet at your home and follow the routine they are used to. Whatever makes them most comfortable is how I will take good care of them.
“Haleigh is great with my shy cats. They let her pet them, and they even took treats from her, which is a huge step for them! She also medicated my cat easily. Will definitely book again!”

“Olivia was fantastic! I highly recommend her if you live in the area. We went away for 7 days to the Caribbean and we asked her to come over for 5 of the 7 days to look after our 2 4-month old kittens. She came over everyday and fed them, changed their water, maintained the liter boxes and even found time to play with them. The best part is she gave a detailed report of what was going on each day that included tons of photos of our kittens. Over the 5 days, she took over 50 pictures for us (13 of them in one day). She made us feel so secure and comfortable while we were away knowing our furry babies were well looked after that we were able to have a super vacation free from worry. I cannot say enough nice things about Olivia. Highly, highly recommended!”

About: I’ve had a small dog almost my entire life and have also spent a lot of time around large family dogs, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’m patient, dependable, and love making pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m currently home from college and don’t have another job at the moment, so I have a very flexible and open schedule. This allows me to adapt easily to your pet’s routine and provide attentive care throughout the day. In a client’s home, I focus on maintaining the pet’s regular routine so they feel comfortable in a familiar environment. I provide attentive care through feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and lots of affection while keeping owners updated for peace of mind. - 30 Minute Dog Walks include a fun stroll around your neighborhood to give your dog the exercise, fresh air, and mental stimulation they need during the day. - 30 Minute Drop-Ins include potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and of course, plenty of snuggles to keep your pet happy and comfortable while you're away.
About: I've loved and taken care of dogs and cats my whole life, mine and other people’s too! It started with my childhood German Shepherd, JoJo, who waited at the end of the street every day to run along side the school bus because she knew I was on the that big, yellow, beast. More recently, I loved and cared for my orange and white, Manx cat, Sid, named after Sid Vicious because he was a little vicious when he was a kitten. My experience taking care of other people's dogs began 22 years ago when a co-worker needed help with her Pomeranian when she went on a trip. I dog sat for her several times. When she realized she no longer could keep her Pom, she let me adopt her. For about 4 years, I raised German Shepherds, including ones imported from Germany. During that time, my partner and I also trained German Shepards for a sport called Schutzhund. It's a sport that tests a dog's tracking, obedience and protection skills. I also trained dogs of all breeds and mixed breeds obedience, cute little tricks and manners. You know what I'm taking about with manners! haha jk I love teaching dogs new tricks! I’m comfortable taking care of puppies, adults and senior dogs; anxious and timid dogs and with administering oral and topical medications and following special instructions and giving extra attention and longer walks if desired. If your dog has a strict routine, you can be at peace knowing I will follow your dog’s routine exactly how he/she is accustomed to it being. If you choose me as your dog sitter, your dog will be showered with love, time and attention. I love taking your dog for walks, playing in the backyard and cuddling on the couch, whatever your pet likes, needs, and enjoys. I am here to help! In addition to taking care of your pets, I am a freelance writer and artist working from home, and I have a very flexible schedule. We can make plans in advance for me to take care of your pet and I can usually be available on short notice. When I'm pet sitting in your home, your pets are my focus, but if I do need to step out for any reason, I'll be sure your pets are safe, happy and your home is secure. I'll leave your pets loved, and your home clean for when you return.

“Madeline is amazing and very compassionate! Took great care of my senior pups. My one senior really can’t leave the house anymore so we did drop in visits. Madeline put us at ease by sending updates and photos every time she checked in. Definitely will use her again! I’ve used Rover twice before and she is the best!”

About: I have experience with all kinds of animals including dogs, cats, birds, and rabbits! I’ve worked for 5 years in a clinic supporting a veterinary team providing treatment and wellness to all types of animals. In 5 years I learned how to read an animal’s body language and how to engage with all kinds of temperaments. I have previously worked in a kennel where I maintained the health and wellbeing of boarding animals with scheduled feeding, medication, and exercise. I’ve worked with non profits like the United States Humane Society working in a high volume setting providing medical care to numerous dogs and cats while advocating for animal welfare and wellness. I’m available for walks and house visits. I’m also available to provide daily feedings in the early mornings or the evenings 7 days a week if needed. My love and dedication to animals is one of the reasons I pursued this opportunity. I have had numerous experiences working with a variety of animals in different environments which makes me a great candidate to be entrusted with your pet! I’m always aware of my surroundings especially when working with animals in an unknown environment. I ensure your fur babies are safe and secured at all times with me.

About: Hi, we’re Bree (22) and Nick (23)! We have loved and cared for animals our entire lives.

Because of this, we are incredibly comfortable with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, and unique care needs. We absolutely love all animals and will do everything to make them feel safe, happy, and right at home when you’re away. When your pet is with us, they will get lots of attention, plenty of playtime, and a schedule that follows your requests. We promise to send you daily photo updates so you never have to worry.

Nick: Nick has a full time job, so he will be available to help out when not working! Safety is my absolute top priority. I always ensure that doors, gates, and windows are closed before letting any animal roam. When we go for walks, pets are securely leashed at all times, and I am always aware of my surroundings. I ensure all hazardous items and human foods are stored far out of reach. For peace of mind, I provide clear communication and send regular photo and text updates throughout the day!
About: I have been taking care of various sized dogs since I was 10 years old. Growing up my family had multiple Rottweilers in the house and I grew a love for taking care of and spending time with animals. I do not have any of my own and with my work schedule being a lot lighter now I would love to help people out that need it! I currently only work in the evenings for a few hours from my home since I recently moved back to Connecticut from the west coast a few months ago. With that I have a lot of free time on my hands throughout the day and would love to spend some time with dogs again. I personally live in a completely fenced in back yard that they would have access to throughout the day if they are at my house. I am a very active person and love taking dogs for long walks and getting them outside as much as possible.
About: What sets me apart from other dog caregivers is my genuine love for dogs and the experience I’ve gained from being a dog owner for many years. I currently own a beautiful pit bull that is 11 years old ,her name is Blue. Before my dog Blue, , I owned a miniature pinscher for 14 years who passed away from old age and being ill.I understand that every dog has its own personality, needs, and routines. I enjoy spending time with dogs, making them feel safe, loved, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. Especially knowing how important it is to me, when I am away, to know that my dog is cared for fed, and feels safe. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or simply companionship, I treat every dog with the same care, patience, and affection that I would give my own. I do currently work full-time. Although I work full-time, I am done work at 2:30, and off in the summer. My husband has recently passed away. I have a lot more time on my hands to give your pet a lot of love. I am done work early enough that I can get to an owner‘s house for a dinner feeding for your pet, letting your pet out if you have a fenced yard , if not a walk. Playtime for your pet companionship whatever the case may be my weekends are free and my summer . It is then that I could provide overnight stays. Having a dog myself, I would not provide any services at my home, however, I would gladly come to your house, carefully come in, call your dog’s name and provide whatever services you would like. Those services would include a 15 minute visit or a 30 min visit In a 15 minute visit: *Let dog out/ short walk * Fresh water/ feeding *Lots of attention/ affection 20.00 30 min drop in * Walk/yard time *Feeding / water refresh * playtime/ companionship *Poop cleanup * photo text update- 30.00
About: I have loved animals and had them in my house since I was a child. I have been taking care of and watching other peoples animals since I was a early teenager. Pet sitting is something I enjoy. I know it can be hard leaving home, having pets myself. So I try to make it as easy as possible for everyone, including the furry friend! I’m currently in school, so I’m available friday-sunday full time and monday, wednesday, thursday after 1:30 pm. Tuesday I have a night class, further discussion and flexibility can be discussed. I cannot go out of New Jersey for my services. I love spending time with animals so I’ll have no issue coming and spending time with your fur baby so he or she doesn’t get lonely, while providing the proper food and resources. I can bring toys to play with the cat if needed.
About: I’ve always grown up around cats and dogs; mostly tortoise shell cats, a few adopted strays, and a husky respectively. Most recently I’ve taken care of pit bulls, a malinois, two sibling Jack Russel’s, westies, and an elderly doberman and corgi; to name a few. I always try to keep a calm demeanor, even with high energy dogs. I’ve learned this is paramount when faced with a dog or cat that might have some trust issues or is just generally nervous. Under no circumstance have I been forceful or aggressive, leaning more towards listening and learning from what the dog’s behavior/body language is trying to convey. I’m available for house-sitting on weekends and most weekdays. I am available for daily walks each day of the week before 5:30pm and after 7pm I try my best to be attentive and to honor outside time, even if it seems evident they are getting a bit bored or restless.
About: I have been around animals since I was born and have gained experience caring for pets by helping neighbors and family members while they were away. As a student at Rowan College of South Jersey, I have a flexible schedule with plenty of time to help meet your animal care needs. I am dependable, patient, and truly enjoy spending time caring for animals of all kinds. I care for pets by making sure their basic needs are always met, including feeding them on their regular schedule, providing fresh water, and ensuring they get proper exercise and attention. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs they may have. In both my home and a client’s home, I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by maintaining a clean environment and giving them plenty of affection and supervision. I also follow any specific instructions given by the owner, such as medication schedules, dietary restrictions, or behavior guidelines, to ensure the best possible care.
About: I currently have 3 dogs of various breeds. I have experience with administering medication, feeding, bathing, walking, and petting (the most important). I love animals and will take care of your pets like I would my own. I work from home with flexibility in my schedule to take care of your pet morning, noon, or night! I am also available on weekends. I have experience with crating, leash walking, and know how to keep your pets safe and happy. Not every dog is the same so I appreciate any information on behaviors or routines set in place to ensure smooth service.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Diane was wonderful! I’m so grateful she came out on Mother’s Day to check on the girls. She was kind, reliable, and made sure they were well cared for. It gave me such peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. I’d happily book with her again!

Exceptional service from start to finish. David was punctual, communicative, and genuinely caring. We received updates and photos, which meant so much while we were away. Our dog looked happy and comfortable when we came back home. We truly appreciate the dedication and professionalism. Highly recommended!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Paulsboro stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Paulsboro choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Paulsboro with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
