“Bonnie and her family are amazing! Sesame is an anxious baby, but everyone in her family gave him so much love and hugs that he immediately settled in. Bonnie shared many photos with me throughout his stay so I could see how he was doing. She was also very communicative, especially about his meals, since he’s a picky eater who’s not very good about finishing his food. She and her family really went above and beyond to care for him! I would totally stay with her again!!!”

She also responded to my texts in a timely manner and sent a pic of our girl. Rachel, and her boys, showed a passion for watching others' dogs. I would highly recommend her for drop offs.”

About: I have been raised around dogs my entire life and have over 11 years of hands-on dog care experience. To me, dogs aren’t just animals but can be family, loyal friends…the closest companions in our lives. I treat every guest pup with the exact same love, respect, and careful attention I give my own I work a flexible 9-5 job where there can be a day or two for me to work remotely. I’m open to boarding those days and the weekends too! I have two dogs in my loft currently. One senior 14-year old morkie and a 3-year old English pointer. Both are trained and don’t bother others. If crates are needed, I have one.

“We had a wonderful experience with Chandupa and Avi while they cared for our dog Bingo. Their regular updates provided us with peace of mind during our time away, ensuring us that Bingo was not only safe but also happy. Despite an unexpected delay causing us to arrive late, they were incredibly understanding and accommodating, allowing us to pick up Bingo without any hassle. Their kindness and exceptional service truly made a difference. We’re grateful to have found such reliable pet sitters.”

About: I am the kind of person who wants to stop and pet every dog in the park. I've had a dog for 13 years and currently have 2 cats of my own. I have fostered cats with a rescue organization. I love furry creatures of all breeds and sizes. Your fur baby will get walks, play and lots of cuddles throughout their day. They will receive the best care while you are away. Your pets will get all the attention they need throughout the day. Dogs will get regular potty breaks, daily walks, or doggy park plays if preferred. Kittens will be cuddled. I have a big house with plenty of room to roam, and a big yard (unfenced) where I can take your fur baby out for some play (leashed). Your puppy will get regular walks in the yard or a nearby park. I allow all pets on furniture or in bed, or will crate them if preferred. I have 2 cats of my own who have lived with a dog all their lives, and with foster kittens for several months.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life—from raising rabbits, ducks, and parrots as a kid to caring for my own dogs today. I currently have two: a 12-year-old Pomeranian and a 4-month-old Border Collie puppy. Caring for both a senior dog and a high-energy herding breed has given me experience across all stages of a dog’s life—from patient senior care to structured puppy training. I’m very observant of each pet’s needs and behavior, which helps me notice if something seems off and respond with care. I’ve also cared for various breeds, including English Pointers and toy breeds, and I understand that each dog’s personality and routine are unique. I’m beginning formal obedience classes with my Border Collie to expand my training knowledge and apply positive, engaging methods with all the pets I care for. My goal is to make sure every animal feels safe, loved, and happy while their owners are away—just like I would want for my own pets. Caring for animals is part of my everyday life and something I truly enjoy. I’m home full-time, which allows me to give pets my full attention throughout the day. My routine already revolves around caring for my two dogs — a senior Pomeranian and a young Border Collie — with regular walks, playtime, training, and affection. Adding pet sitting and dog care to my daily schedule feels like a natural extension of what I already love doing. I make time each day for exercise, mental stimulation, and rest for the animals in my care, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether pets stay in my home or I visit theirs, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for just like they would with their own family. I follow each pet’s routine closely — from feeding and walks to playtime and rest — and I always keep their comfort and well-being in mind. In my home, pets have a calm, clean environment with plenty of supervised playtime and affection. For in-home visits, I respect the owner’s space and care for pets according to their regular schedule to reduce stress and maintain consistency. I pay close attention to their behavior, keep them mentally and physically active, and send frequent updates so owners always know their pets are happy and in good hands.

Esther was amazing with Mia! Esther sent me daily updates and pictures. Mia is in a single dog home and she got along well with Esther's dog. Mia was rescued on August 24, 2026 and Esther and her care of Mia was a HUGE relief when I went away for the weekend! I am looking forward to Mia's next stay with Esther!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in NJ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
