Nan is a warm and caring person, and one of the best pet sitter I’ve ever met. She not only takes excellent care of the dogs but also provides them with companionship, making them feel completely at home. The nearby park is convenient for playtime, and unlike some dog sitter ,she gives dogs plenty of space to roam freely. Her family also loves dogs and treats them as friends. You can trust Nan wholeheartedly with your dog’s care.

Jenn is the first sitter we’ve ever used for our one year old yorkie. We were so nervous but ended up having the best experience. Jenn was very responsive and sent us pictures throughout the day. Also a plus that her kids were there to play with our Bella and keep her engaged. I can tell she felt so loved. We will be using Jenn again very soon.

About: We are a loving family who are excited to open our home to your pet. We were proud dog owners for 13 years, and caring for our beloved Brandin was a big part of our daily life. We truly enjoy being around dogs and creating a warm, safe environment where they feel comfortable and loved. Between myself and my husband if not both someone is usually at home. I only work part time and my husband is a NJ Firefighter which gives us free time to care for your pet. We have a fully fenced in yard where dogs can safely play, get fresh air, and we live in a friendly dog loving community that’s perfect for walks and outdoor time.

If “amazing dog sitter” could have an image for a definition it would be Maisha! I’ve left my baby with her many times now and I trust her very much with my fur baby. If you’re looking for someone or trying to switch to a new sitter, Maisha is your girl 🤍

I heard about Melanie from a friend. I’m so glad that my pup’s stay worked out while i was on vacation. This is my first time using Rover and i was a little bit nervous. Melanie was fantastic. She’s so calm and provided a perfect structure for my anxious dog. She is a very responsive communicator. I would definitely use her again.

About: With experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and ages, I tailor my approach to each pet’s unique needs—whether that’s energetic play, calm companionship, or following a specific routine. I make space in my life for animal care, not just fit it in, and I always take time to learn about a pet’s favorite activities, schedule, and temperament to ensure they feel safe, understood, and loved. I work a steady 9–5 schedule on weekdays with weekends completely free, which allows me to build reliable, consistent pet care into my daily routine. Mornings and evenings are dedicated to caring for animals—whether that’s feeding, walking, administering medication, or just spending quality time. On weekends, I’m fully available for extended visits, drop-ins, or overnight care. Caring for animals isn’t something I squeeze in—it’s something I intentionally make space for in my life. Whether your pet needs a calm companion, detailed attention, or a familiar routine while you’re away, I’m here to provide dependable and loving care every time. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or welcoming them into mine, their comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities. In Your Home: I understand how important it is for pets to stay in their familiar environment. When caring for your pet in your home, I’ll treat your space with the utmost respect—leaving everything exactly as I found it, or even better. I follow your instructions closely, maintain your pet’s routine, and always make sure they’re calm, comfortable, and cared for like part of my own family. In My Home: I live in a single-level home with a large, fully fenced-in yard—perfect for safe outdoor time and play. Inside, we have two spacious bedrooms and a relaxed, open layout. Pets have unrestricted access throughout the home so they can settle in, explore, and feel completely at ease. I aim to make it a true home-away-from-home experience where your pet feels loved and secure at all times.

This was Enzo’s third time staying with Stacia, and as always, she was amazing and most of all patient with Enzo. Stacia always stayed in touch with us, sharing updates and pictures of Enzo’s activities. She goes above and beyond, and Enzo was well cared for. Thank you very much.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Josh took amazing care of our Bichon Frise, Quartz, for two weeks and even accommodated an extra day when our plans changed. It was clear that Quartz was well cared for, loved, and treated like family. Josh was dependable, communicative, and made the entire process convenient and stress-free. We truly appreciate his flexibility and the excellent care he provided. We will definitely use Josh again for future dog care needs and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Thank you, Josh! 🐾

Yanina, and her family treated her like she was already part of their family. They were especially understanding when we had to drop our dog off later than our initial time. She sent us pics during our vacation and updated us. I was relieved that they had a fenced in yard because dalmations love to run. We picked up our fur baby in great shape. Thanks to Yanina and her family we will definitely rebook in future.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Shandy! My puppy stayed for 3 nights, and I was so impressed with the care, love, and attention given. From the start, communication was excellent, and I felt completely at ease leaving my pup in such capable hands. She went above and beyond to make sure my puppy was comfortable, safe, and happy. I received updates, videos and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. When she dropped off my puppy, I could tell she had been well cared for and loved—happy, relaxed, and even better with her routines. It’s clear that Shandy truly has a passion and talent for caring for dogs. I’m so grateful to have found such a trustworthy and reliable boarder, and I will absolutely be using her again in the future. Highly recommend to anyone looking for exceptional care for their furry family member!
