“We had such a great experience with Kayla. Our dog struggles with separation anxiety, but Kayla did such a great job to calm his nerves. She was very patient with him and went out of her way to do a meet and greet prior to the appointment. He had such a good time! Highly recommend.”

About: I bring a high level of discipline, reliability, and attention to detail into every pet sitting experience. I’m fully present with every pet, making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for—not just supervised. I’m experienced with a wide range of needs, from energetic puppies that require structure and consistency, to senior pets that need patience and a calm environment. I pay close attention to behavior, routines, and small details that keep pets stress-free while their owners are away. I also take pride in clear communication and respect for your home. You’ll always know how your pet is doing, and you can trust that everything is being handled with care. I aim to provide a level of service that gives owners complete peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I make it a priority to be consistent, attentive, and present. I structure my days so I can maintain regular feeding times, walks, play, and check-ins without rushing. I’m available throughout the day and evening, which allows me to give pets the attention they need, whether that’s active time for more energetic pets or a calm, steady environment for those who prefer a quieter routine. I also keep communication consistent, providing updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to create a smooth, predictable routine so your pet feels comfortable and everything stays consistent while you’re away. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and consistent environment for every pet, whether I’m in my home or a client’s home. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions, so they feel comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I treat the space with full respect and keep everything clean, organized, and exactly as it was. I’m attentive to safety at all times—making sure doors are secure, pets are supervised appropriately, and their environment stays stress-free. I pay close attention to behavior and energy levels, adjusting care as needed for puppies, adult pets, or seniors. Whether a pet needs activity and structure or a quieter, more relaxed approach, I make sure they’re cared for with patience and awareness. Clear communication is also a priority. I provide regular updates so you can feel confident knowing your pet and home are in good hands.

About: I love animals and have experience working with and sitting for a wide range of them, including dogs, cats, and small or exotic animals. I myself have owned over twenty parrots (currently have two in the aviary!) and have extensive experience with fishkeeping — I have four cycled, walstad fish and shrimp tanks! I can walk your dog, clean your cat’s litter box, and even do water changes for your fish if needed! Anything to make sure your little guys are well cared for! I’m a graduate social work student who will be free over the summer, so my schedule is flexible until August. I can make myself available as needed. My own pets are given daily care. I own several disabled animals who require special care in order to get around and eat on their own. I currently have two budgies in a large cage l and two betta fish, each in 5-10 gallon tanks. The parrots are allowed to free fly for most of the day, but they will be put away when your pets are being boarded. In your home, I try not to disturb or move anything that’s not necessary. I’ll make use of only what’s given to me with regards to caring for your pet — but I do reserve the right to cuddle your pet a little more!

“Irina was amazing with our boy Veer! She took care of Veer every detail with great care in our home as he was her own. I highly recommend her and will using her services again every time we travel.”

About: I'm a pet-loving mother of four with three children in college—and enjoying the wonderful pets I have met through this site. I have lived in Scotch Plains for almost 15 years. I watch several dogs regularly on a private basis and am excited to be part of the Rover community. I grew up with a beloved menagerie that included three cats, two beloved dachshunds and a poodle and have enjoyed watching a variety of dogs, including a bulldog, a French bulldog, a Bernese, a labradoodle, and, of course, mixed breeds. I love walking and daily yoga and look forward to helping your pets get the fresh air, activity and affection they need when you are working or otherwise busy. I am a freelance writer with a flexible schedule and have time for walks and visits before or after work and at lunchtime. Having raised a family, I know how important it is to have a pet sitter who is mature and reliable and understands how deeply you love your pets--and am honored to assist you in keeping them happy and healthy. While I would love to help every pet, I am petite, so my ideal sized pets are under 50 pounds. I am a freelance writer with a flexible schedule and my own car. I rise early every day, and I am often available on weekends. I am often available at lunch time to clients who need their dogs walked mid day. I am a mature, reliable and organized mother of four and will treat your beloved and adorable pet like a member of my own family.

About: I work from home 5 days a week which will allow your dog to get constant attention and love. Having cared for my own dog I understand how difficult it is to leave with someone else. I currently work from home 5 days a week and will be able to attend to your dogs needs. I can take them out for plenty of potty breaks. Since I work from home your dog will get plenty of attention. I live in a very dog friendly community that is great for walks. I will always keep your dog on a secure leash whenever outdoors.

“We’ve had such a great experience with Dulce as our dog sitter. She is always extremely timely, reliable, and communicative, which gives us so much peace of mind. She has been incredibly patient and gentle with our puppy, Lucy, and it’s clear she genuinely cares about her well-being. Lucy is always so excited to see her, which says everything. We also really appreciate Dulce’s flexibility and willingness to work with our schedule when things change. We’re very grateful to have found someone we trust and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring sitter.”

About: Hi! My name is Sandra, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have over 12 years of hands-on pet care experience and a strong professional background working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I previously worked as a manager at a doggy daycare, grooming, and boarding facility, where I supervised group play, ensured safety, assisted with grooming needs, and provided daily care for multiple dogs at once. I also worked closely with a professional dog trainer for three years, gaining experience with basic training, leash handling, behavior management, and reading canine body language. I currently have four dogs of my own, so I’m very familiar with daily routines, high-energy dogs, seniors, and multi-dog households. I’m comfortable administering medications, following specific instructions, and adjusting care to each dog’s individual needs. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I’m currently working part-time, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and dedicate quality time to the pets in my care. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, with availability on weekdays 6am-8am and anytime after 4pm and most weekends. I’m happy to communicate and work around your pet’s routine to ensure consistent and reliable care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are extremely important to me. I always follow owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, training rules, and household routines. I’m attentive to behavior, body language, and stress signals, and I prioritize calm, positive interactions. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your space and keep everything clean and secure. For walks and outings, I use proper leash handling and remain alert to surroundings at all times. With my professional background in daycare and training environments, you can trust that your pet will be cared for responsibly, patiently, and with genuine love.

“Marissa watched our dog and my daughter’s dog say my home. She was wonderful with them. They’re both a handful seperately so together just imagine. I felt confident and was able to relax and have a good time. I plan to book her again.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a child, and love spending time with animals! I also foster cats in my free time and like to volunteer with local shelters! I’m currently in medical school, so this is a part time position for me, helping me to pay for my education and honestly supporting my mental health! I like to provide a calm and stable environment, and take pride in my ability to understand dog/cat body language, which helps me provide appropriate care!

“Took great care of our two small Chihuahuas. They were very well looked after. We received daily photos and updates while we were gone. It was very reassuring to see them happy and safe.”

“Tipper seems content and happy. Daniela was able to adjust her plans, as we ran into some problems while away, and was even willing to be here an extra night if we would have needed her. I am very thankful for her willingness to help given our difficult personal situation. We would be very happy to have her back to stay with Tipper at another time.”

“Brittany was amazing! She watched our three dogs overnight. They absolutely loved her and immediately accepted her as part of their family. She arranged, on her own time, to come and meet the dogs, and me, before she accepted the job to be sure it was a good fit. While we were away she kept us updated by sending us many pictures and letting us know how the dogs were doing. If she had any questions, she asked us for clarification. I would highly recommend Brittany and we will be asking her to watch our pack again I am sure.”
