“Marc did a great job caring for our two cats. He stopped by daily while we were away and was reliable and helpful. He went above and beyond to spend time with them and clean up after them and got along very well with the cats. Definitely would recommend Marc’s services to a friend and would not hesitate to have him cat sit for us again.”

“Another great visit from Jennifer. She was able to get two of my shy kitties out of hiding to have breakfast with the rest. Pets can sense who’s friendly and can be safe around. Jennifer loves pets and pets love her. Thank you Jennifer!”

“My cats are indoor-outdoor cats and can be shy with strangers, so they can be challenging for a new sitter, but Lauren did a fine job of keeping track of them and making sure they were safe and fed. She even managed to snatch a few photos to send to their worried mom! 🙂”

“Wow! Wow! Wow! I booked Mika at the last moment when I discovered my neighbor could not watch my cat Mikey. Not only did Mika make time to meet me THAT day, but she could cover all my schedule. A member of the Armed Forces, Mika is highly intelligent, empathic, funny and trustworthy...she's got it all. My house was in perfect order when I returned and Mikey was so happy with her, he barely greeted me on my return. So, thanks Mika and thank you Rover.com”

“Samantha was wonderful with my two cats. I had not left them with a stranger before and my experience with Samantha was very reassuring. She took the time to meet me beforehand to go through their routine and was very diligent about their routine care and med administration for one of my cats. She sent me photo updates and updates that meds had been administered. Would definitely have Samantha care for my cats again!”

About: I am a fellow dog Mom looking to give the care I would expect for my own Lucy Goosey. I have also fostered dogs and just find joy being around dogs. A house full of dogs is a happy home. I work from home and find the best way to take mental breaks is to walk and play with my dog. I am my happiest in the sun with a pup at my feet. In my home they will be part of the family. I have two boys who love dogs and a dog who loves to play or let your dog chill; whichever there speed is she can match ( but she loves it when it’s play!) In your home I will respect your space and ensure your dog is filled with extra love while your gone and make the visits count with whatever their favorites are wether that’s belly rubs, fetch, long walks or all of the above!

“She’s very friendly and exceeded my expectations. Really good with communication and troubleshooted well. She takes an abundance of wonderful pictures and I think my dog really likes her. I would definitely recommend I will be rebooking!”

“Frida was great! She watched our cats for over a week, they tend to be shy but warmed up to her and let her pet and play with them by the end. We appreciated the updates and photos she shared as well :)”

“Ruth couldn’t have been any kinder and more attentive for my cat Lily. It was only my second time leaving her and Lily warmed up quickly and from the security cameras looked forward to her arrival. In and out”


“Allison provided amazing communication while caring for our cat. She sent pictures and told us each time she stopped by to fill food/water dishes and clean our cat’s litter box. We would definitely book with Allison again!”

“Yana was so communicative and always on time! She spent so much time with the kittens and took pictures for me. She even gained the love of my kitten that is scared of everyone and everything lol. It’s always worrisome to leave your pets behind but I 1000% trust her. I’ll be booking her again in just a few weeks! Highly recommend.”

“I was very hesitant to use rover for the first time but Michael was very kind and answered all of my questions. He really took the time to learn about my pups and make sure they were happy while I was away. They warmed up to him quickly and let out their crazy side. I felt like we were in constant contact so I knew my dogs were being well taken care of which really took a weight off my shoulders. He even went above and beyond by sweeping up the dog hair which with a Great Pyrenees at home really builds up fast. I am so happy with how everything went and will definitely be using Michael again in the future. It was truly a great experience and I can’t thank Michael enough he really did and amazing job!!!”

About: I have always been around cats and dogs my whole life and have taken care of both before. I love being able to bond with a pet! Hi there! I am new to NJ as I just moved from VA. I work hybrid 9-5 Mon-Fri, and my days in person vary every week, so my availability depends on my job! I am available on weekends- time doesn't really matter for me unless I have something planned but letting me know ahead of time works best! In my home with my cat I always make sure he's fed with a clean box and tons of pets ready for him when he isn't asleep and many toys for him that he loves. The same goes for anyone else's pet I am responsible for!
About: I own a 4 year old dog of my own. Worked at a puppy boutique caring, walking, feeding, participating in vet nights & grooming/bathing young puppies. i have dog sat a lot of family & friends dogs. I am currently working part-time so can be flexible. I am able to do drop ins, but also walking and pet-sitting. I love dogs so it is a privilege to spend time with them! I live in an apartment with my own dog who is great with other dogs. I walk dogs as much as the owner asks, take them out frequently, do brain stimulating activities, & play with them.
About: I have always been a pet lover and have trained and cared for my two dogs for 5 years now, but have pet sat and cared for my families and friends pets for 10 years now. I am detail oriented in case your pet has any specific needs and I am flexible with my availability. I am in New Jersey for my first full time job so I am missing my pets and am excited to be able to take care of yours! I love walking and will take your pet on however long or short of a walk! I have an adaptable schedule so I can fit pet care into almost any day. On Tuesday through Thursday I am available after 5 PM and on all other days I am available all day. I always keep a watchful eye on my pets regardless wether there is a fence or we are inside. I find having more precaution and presence is the safest. On walks, I will leash my pets and take them on bike paths or trails and away from the road at all times. If we have to walk on a road, I am keeping them close and always staying aware.
“Nikki dropped in to check on our cats during the long Fourth of July weekend! Everything went so well and she gave one of our cats his meds every evening. She was timely and professional and very knowledgeable!”
