“Ryan has been so patient and sweet with our anxious chihuahua, Pinto. Pinto is nervous around new people and Ryan was very patient allowing Pinto to warm up to him and not rushing him. Pinto now greets Ryan with excitement and loves the walks. Ryan is also dependable and communicative. Highly recommend!”
“Excellent, professional and very loving and caring. Very trustworthy. She’s takes awesome care of my lively 5 year old and my blind and deaf old man. She’s wonderful! Very highly recommend”
“Laura is great with dozer. He has recently been having some health issues and she has been very sensitive to needs and always communicates with me about his energy level and vibe for the day. Her help and consistency is greatly appreciated!”
About: Hi, I'm Krystina! I am a 30-year-old passionate pet lover with over 10 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. Animals aren't just a job for me—they are a central part of my life. As a dedicated pet parent myself, I understand how deeply we love our fur babies and how important it is to find someone you can completely trust when you're away. Whether your pet is staying in your home, joining me for a quick afternoon stroll, or settling in for an extended stay while you travel, they will be treated exactly like a member of my own family. I pride myself on providing the same level of love, attention, and spoiling that they get from you! Flexible schedule for dog walking and house sitting! I can adapt to your pet’s needs and keep them happy, active, and comfortable while you're away! 🐾🐶🐱🐾 I provide safe, reliable, and loving care in your pet’s own home environment. I do not currently offer boarding and do not have a vehicle, so my services are focused within a 5–10 mile radius of Edison, NJ. I’m available for house sitting, and dog walking while keeping your pet’s routine comfortable, familiar, and stress-free. 🐶🐱
“Victoria is amazing! She is extremely communicative and reliable in her services. I have a nervous pet and she went above and beyond to ensure that my dog and I were at ease. She was also able to help me in short notice. She is fantastic and I plan to use her again in the future :)”
About: Hi! I’m Quin. I grew up with cats, dogs, a bunny, and was a member of an Alpaca 4-H club since I was in 3rd grade, I don’t know a world without animals. I genuinely love getting to know people’s pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. My current house currently boasts four cats of various ages, from kittens to an old lady, and a young Australian Shepherd mix. Because of this, I'm very comfortable with both cats, dogs, and households that have multiple pets. I've also spent a large part of my life caring for senior animals and pets who need a little extra attention. I've managed medications, special diets, frequent potty breaks, and other individualized care, including caring for a previous dog with a seizure disorder. My approach to pet care is to meet each animal where they are. I love matching their energy, whether that means a long walk and plenty of playtime, some quiet companionship, or simply giving a shy pet the time and space they need to become comfortable with me. I'm detail-oriented and happy to follow specific routines and care instructions because I know how important it is to feel confident that your pet is being cared for exactly the way you would care for them. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and cat sitting. I'm happy to care for pets who need extra attention or have special routines, and I always want to make your time away as easy and worry-free as possible. Most importantly, I want your pets to feel like they have a friend looking after them while you're gone. If that sounds like the kind of pet care you need, please reach out to me! I am currently a part-time student with another job on top of Rover, so please take a look at the calendar to book with me! Pet safety is my top priority. I am familiar with dealing with cats and dogs who don't get along and make sure not just to stop dangerous scenarios but also to prevent them altogether.
About: I have been petsitting for over 10 years now! I absolutely love animals, and I see it as a real gift to care for other people’s beloved companions. I’ve had the pleasure of sitting for both cats and dogs, and earlier this year I also ran a small farm on my own for three weeks, caring for goats and chickens. I pride myself on being responsible, reliable, and deeply caring; maintaining structure and routine for animals while also offering plenty of affection, cuddles, and attention. I’m really looking forward to meeting you and caring for your home and pets! I am a writer who uses petsitting opportunities to focus on my writing! I also teach yoga & playwriting and host events! My weekly routine is pretty flexible in many ways so if you have a unique time or petsitting request, please reach out! I take being in other people's homes to be a matter of great responsibility and care. I have had the honor of pet sitting all over the world now, and I really treat other people's homes as my home when I am there. I am very clean and attentive to details. I am also the type of person to go for long walks, meditate and do yoga. I don't drink, and enjoy the simple things in life. If you have a dog that love walks, we will be best friends.
About: I have had multiple dogs and cats that I have raised and taken care of. I love animals and will take care of them like my own. ❤️ I work hybrid so I can stay home if needed for extra care. I also have a little dog so I stop by the home frequently to let them out. Friday to Sunday works best for me but can do any day of the week since my schedule is flexible. I have two cats and a dog who all love other animals and are very sweet. I have dog proofed and cat proofed the whole house obviously and I am a single working professional so I can definitely provide one on one care.
“Ana responded immediately to my inquiry. I appreciated her setting up a meet and great with the dogs and allowing me the opportunity to meet her and see how they were with her. She was prompt with both walks and worked well with my timid shy dog to get her out and walking. She was great with the dogs flexible and accommodating, would use again for sure.”
About: I’ve loved animals ever since I can remember. From hamsters, dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, geckos, etc. I have had them all! I am always a reliable source for pet care when friends and neighbors are away. I currently work weekends and am attending school in the evenings a few days a week- so I have all day to play and care for your fur babies! I have a fenced in yard and two cats who are accepting of other animals. I can crate or provide a comfy space for your pets so they feel pampered and safe!
About: I have 4 years experience dog sitting in South Jersey! I have experience working as a kennel attendant at a dog boarding facility and now work with farm animals on the Rutgers Farm! I have, on multiple occasions, house sat as well for far away jobs. I have 6 years of fostering experience. This includes cats, dogs, ferrets, tarantulas, and hamsters. I spend lots of time shadowing and interning in veterinary settings to gain experience prior to veterinary school. I juggle Rover with a part-time job and being a full time student. My flexibility depends on the time of year because of this but, usually, I am willing to travel up to 20 minutes for check ins/walks and house sit further away. When I’m taking care of your pets, that is my complete focus. My top priority is keeping your pets as stress-free, happy, and healthy as possible, and I will try to accommodate in any way you ask.
“Rafaela was very patient and kind with my pups. She showed up promptly and you can tell that she loves these animals. Very attentive and thorough. Would definitely book her again! Thank you”
About: Hello! My name is Izzy, and I'd love to help take care of your furry friends. I am a certified dog and cat groomer, and I have a lot of experience working with various animals, especially birds, and farm animals. I've gained a lot of knowledge about animals through volunteering, work, as well as through caring for my own pets. I have 2 elderly rescue hounds of my own, Walter and Rosa, as well as a Senegal parrot named Zeppole. I also have experience working with rescue dogs/older dogs with anxiety. I look forward to meeting you and your pet :) I am free to house-sit during weekends, as well as do drop-ins or walks during most days of the week. If you have a specific time-frame you need me present, let me know and I can arrange my schedule around yours to the best of my abilities. Due to my own animal's needs and temperaments, I am sadly not able to board any pets. However, I'll be happy to provide your animals with the same level of upmost care at your home that I would for my own pets.
About: What sets me apart is the love and attention I give each dog as if they were my own. I’m very attentive to routines, feeding, and behavior, making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable. I’m also organized, patient, and I always make sure they get plenty of affection, playtime, and care. I’m fully available, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I can give pets consistent attention, follow their schedule, and be present throughout the day. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, safe, and loving environment with plenty of space to explore. I’m lucky to have a large outdoor area with beautiful surroundings, including small lakes and walking paths, which allows for relaxing walks and plenty of fresh air. I always supervise outdoor time to ensure safety. Inside, I keep a clean, cozy space where pets can rest comfortably and follow their usual routines. In clients’ homes, I respect each pet’s routine and environment, making sure they feel secure and cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve only ever known a household with pets! From cats and dogs, to hamsters and lizards. I truly love animals and have easily cared for family and friend’s beloved pets. Feedings, potty breaks, litter or crate cleans, I can do it all! I am currently a part time, online college student. So I can easily work pet care into my schedule with appropriate time given to prepare. In your home, I can always ensure that your pet’s environment is well kept and clean, including crates, food bowls, or litter boxes/outdoor spaces. I am able to brush your pet regularly and ensure their routine is kept for them.
“I was able to book Irina at short notice. She even stopped by my house to meet my dog Penny before coming the next day to walk her. Penny absolutely loved Irina. I have never seen her react so enthusiastically to anyone other than my husband or me. And Irina followed through reliably on the two walks as promised with pictures. I would absolutely use Irina again.”

Jon is the absolute best! He was great with my big Akita puppy. He knew how to handle a big doggy and how to help a puppy be comfortable. He went above and beyond to make sure Rocko was well-taken care of. I was able to feel at ease knowing Rocko was in good hands. I would 100% recommend Jon and will definitely be a returning client! Thank you Jon!
Mersades has been consistently walking our dog for about a year, and we could not recommend her enough! She is reliable, flexible, friendly, and just the sweetest! We highly highly recommend her and she will continue to be our number one pick for all our pet drop in and walking needs.
