Dog Sitting in Pine Brook

About: I’ve become the go-to person among my friends for pets that need extra care or have specific routines. I understand how important consistency is, and I’m very mindful of maintaining each dog’s normal schedule. As a dog owner myself, I truly empathize with how it feels to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I prioritize clear, thoughtful communication—keeping you updated and reassured, while also giving you peace of mind to enjoy your time away. I currently work part-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available during weekday and weekend afternoons, and I truly enjoy being around dogs. 😊 I’m very mindful and respectful of a dog’s home environment and personal space. I take my time building trust and focus on creating a calm, safe presence so they feel comfortable and secure.

About: I am a 10 year pet owner and volunteer at animal shelters walking dogs. I love to go on long walks, play outside, and giving lots of love and treats! I am a current college graduate looking for some part time opportunities. My schedule is very flexible and this allows me to spend time with animals which I enjoy! I am responsible for the grooming and feeding of my own cats and dogs- talking them on walks, cleaning and making sure they are safe.

“Madison was beyond phenomenal!!! She made me feel at ease every step of the way. Her communication with me was exactly what I needed to make me feel at ease leaving my new rescue kitty in her care. I can not recommend her enough! Will definitely be using her for every trip I have. My cat loved her as well!! She is so kind and caring and took care of my baby like he was her own. If I could give her a million stars I would!!”

About: In all my 22 years of life, I have always had a dog and have assisted in feeding, bathing, and walking the dogs I’ve had. I’ve always been an animal person even considered becoming a vet at one point. Whenever I am at someone’s home, you can find me hanging out with their pet wether it’s a dog or cat or even a snake! In addition to walks on ROVER I make and sell custom stickers. Pet stickers are especially popular and my Etsy is ShopMomentsFromMichi I currently have a flexible schedule, please reach out to me a week in advance, so I can fit your pup into that schedule!! I do 20 hours of volunteer work a week and babysit, I plan each weeks work days/ volunteering days about a week in advance and would love to add your precious pet into that mix! I am looking to do dog walking and dropping in! I am open to taking your dog for a leashed walk around the neighborhood or drive them to a fenced in dog park if you’re comfortable with it!! Whenever I walk a dog I always bring myself and the dog water to keep us safe and hydrated.

“Catherine is great! I knew from our meet and greet that she is a genuine animal lover! She immediately got down onto the floor to calmly and gently introduce herself to my cat. Dani went right up to her with confidence. Catherine took such good care of my Dani while I was on vacation. She made sure that she had plenty of food and water each day and tended to the litter box. Catherine took time to pet, brush, and play with Dani too. She also took a lot of great photos. I could see from the photos that Dani was thoroughly enjoying Catherine’s company and attention. I will definitely use Catherine in the future and confidently recommend her pet sitting services to others.”

About: Hi there! I’m a veterinary technician at Sea Girt Animal Hospital, where I’ve been caring for pets for the past five years. Working with animals is truly my passion—I love getting to know each dog and cat’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies who love to play to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I’m also skilled in giving medications (oral, topical, or injectable if needed) and keeping up with any special routines your pet may have. At home, I’m a proud dog mom to one wonderful pups who keep me smiling every day. Whether it’s going for walks, snuggling, playing fetch, or just keeping your pet company, I treat every furry friend like part of my own family. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for—and I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages while you’re away! I am currently working at a veterinary hospital and attending school Monday-Thursday 4:30 to 9:30. I am free all day Wednesday until school and free all day Friday. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my priority is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible—feeding times, walks, playtime, and any medications—so they feel right at home even when you’re away. As a veterinary technician with 5 years of experience at Sea Girt Animal Hospital, I’m trained to notice even small changes in a pet’s behavior or health. I’m comfortable administering medications, caring for puppies and senior dogs, and providing gentle, attentive care for pets with special needs. In your home, I always respect your space and your pet’s routine, keeping everything clean and consistent. In my home, pets have a calm, safe environment with plenty of attention, belly rubs, and love. I also make sure to send lots of photo and message updates, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for!

About: I’m a school counselor and dedicated dog owner with hands on experience training my rescue dog to become a certified therapy dog. I take a patient and attentive approach when walking or dog sitting. My goal is to ensure each dog’s safety, routine, and happiness when I visit them! As an educator, I have a consistent schedule. I’m especially available during the summer months, and during the school year I focus on weekend dog sitting and care. I care for pets by following their usual routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable in their familiar environment while maintaining cleanliness and safety. I give each pet plenty of attention, patience, and care to help them feel relaxed, secure, and well cared for while their owner is away.

About: Hi, there! I’m Dani. l work full-time on a hybrid schedule (some remote days each week), but would love to help you take care of your fur babies in my spare time and when I’m working remotely. I have several years of experience petsitting and dog walking through family, friends, neighbors, and Rover. I am available for boarding, check-ins, and walks! Please refer to my Rover calendar for my booking availability. My daily routine nonetheless consists of pet care since I have pets of my own, so I am very familiar and comfortable with caring for animals around the clock 🫶🏼 You can rest assured that I will treat your pets and your home just as I would want mine to be treated. I’ll give lots of love and attention to your fur babies and be sure to send you plenty of cute photos!

About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life, starting with family pets and neighborhood dogs growing up. I was raised with a miniature Schnauzer and helped care for my family’s black lab and terrier mix, giving me hands-on experience with different breeds, sizes, and energy levels. I’m attentive, patient, and always focused on making dogs feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. Their happiness and routine are always my top priority. I am currently working part-time and am a full-time student. However, my schedule is very flexible. I am available after 11:00 am every weekend; before 3:00 pm and after 7:30 pm on Mondays and Wednesdays; and before 2:00 pm and after 5:00 pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays! As a college student, I’m very mindful about creating a safe, calm, and trustworthy environment for every pet I care for. In my current on-campus apartment, I follow all pet guidelines, keep doors and windows secure, and maintain a clean, organized space to prevent accidents. Pets are always supervised, and I strictly follow owners’ instructions regarding feeding, walks, routines, and any special care needs. Beginning in August, I will be living in a house with a yard, which will provide even more space for pets to feel comfortable and active. There are no other pets or children in the home, and I live with three responsible roommates who are respectful of pet boundaries and routines. I make sure all pets have a quiet, safe area to relax and adjust, and I prioritize trust by providing regular updates and photos so owners feel confident their pets are well cared for. A pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities.

“Cindy was amazing! Fed our cats took great care of them on her drop in. Would highly recommend her and will book with her again!”

About: Since I was 10 years old, I’ve always had a dog in my life. I love animals so much and I offer nothing but affection and care. I love cuddling with them too if they’re open to it. I’m in sales so I do work from home a lot. When I leave my house, it’s for a maximum of four hours. If you have a dog that is shy, I have a separate room for him/her. I have a 10 pound Shih Tzu living in our home. I adore him and he’s very friendly but if your dog does not like other dogs, it’s not a problem to keep them separate. I usually keep my dog on the main floor of the townhome. He has full access to the whole floor. If your dog is shy, I have a spare room on the lower level that the dog can stay in solo with a couch, dog bed, crate, and toys. I will only take 1 household at a time (2 dogs max) to ensure that your pup gets plenty of individual attention.

“I love quinn she's so good to my boys!”

“She did a great job. Followed instructions and asked questions. Sent lots of pics of my babies!”

“Olivia has been great with my goldendoodle. She helps my out a few times a week while I am at work. I don’t trust many people with my baby and I trust her! Not only am I happy with her but my girl LOVES her. It is a great feeling knowing that your dog is in good hands. It is such a relief to have found her to help me out.”

About: I have experience caring for a wide variety of dogs, including seniors, high-energy breeds, rescue dogs, and pets that require extra patients or special attention. I understand that every animal has a unique personality and routine, and I take the time to make each pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Safety is always my top priority, whether we are going on walks, spending time, outdoors, or relaxing at home. I’m attentive to details, reliable schedules, and committed to providing loving, dependable care. I’m especially good with anxious or rescue dogs who may need a calmer, reassuring presence. I know how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone new, and I treat every animal as if they were my own; with patience, kindness, and genuine affection. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, long walks, or simply quiet, companionship, I’m happy to provide the care attention that helps them feel happy and secure. I know pets are family, and I’ll care for yours with the same love and attention I’d want for my own. I am currently a college student, with my classes being fully remote, so I have no restrictive schedule for pet care. My assignments are completed from home, so I do not have a travel period. Currently, I am not offering pet care from my home, as I have two dogs already living there. When it comes to my client’s home, I ensure all entrances and exists are secure as to prevent pets from leaving. I keep easily accessible spaces clean from items the pets may try to come in contact with. I am more than happy to accommodate for my clients with specialities they require for their pets.

About: Hi! We’re Makaela and Tom — lifelong animal lovers with 4+ years of dog sitting experience combined. I’ve been a Rover sitter on and off for the past 3 years while completing graduate school, and I also have a year of dog training experience working with dogs of all sizes, breeds, personalities, and energy levels. Tom grew up in what can only be described as a “domestic zoo,” so caring for animals has always been second nature to him! Most importantly, we genuinely LOVE dogs and understand how important it is to leave your pet with people you can fully trust. Together, we provide a safe, attentive, structured, and fun environment where your dog will be treated like family while you’re away — whether you’re working, traveling, or just taking some well-deserved time for yourself. We also have our own dog, Cannoli, a 1 year 9 month old German Shepherd who is extremely socialized and absolutely lives for puppy friends and playtime. She loves having visitors and helps create a fun, active environment for social dogs. We can’t wait to meet you and your pup! 🐾 Our schedules are set up perfectly for giving dogs the attention and care they deserve! We’re both home Thursday–Sunday (Tom’s home all the time) allowing for plenty of supervision, playtime, potty breaks, cuddles, and individualized attention throughout the day. Even better — our family owns the Montessori school right next door in Neptune, which gives us access to a HUGE fully fenced outdoor space where the dogs can safely run, explore, and play. It’s one of our favorite parts of dog sitting because it allows pups to get plenty of exercise and enrichment in a secure environment. When it comes to care, we truly tag-team everything. Between the two of us, your dog gets lots of attention, consistency, and supervision. We also know how important peace of mind is while you’re away, so we send daily (and often hourly!) updates, photos, and check-ins so you always know how your pup is doing.

About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for both dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while away. As a nurse, I’m responsible, attentive, calm under pressure, and detail-oriented, so your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and lots of love while you’re gone I’m an OR nurse with a flexible schedule outside of work and love spending my free time with animals. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting on many weekdays and weekends, and I’m always communicative and reliable when coordinating care. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I always aim to create a calm, safe, and loving environment. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, walks, medications if needed, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. Lots of updates and photos included 😊

“Karen was amazing with our dog Miley. She brought her own treats that Miley loved and was so caring and cautious with our dog. Karen made sure Miley felt safe and they had great playtime and walk. I highly recommend Karen to anyone reading this. A true dog lover and professional.”

“Mary was awesome. She accommodated a pretty short notice request for our first time for a drop-in. And while our dogs can be anxious around new people, she had no concerns and took them out and played with them and they had a blast. We will definitely be using her services again.”
