About: Hi, my name is Grace and I’m happy to be back in the Garden State! Although my "day job" as a marketing manager for a local university is a lot of fun, spending time with animals is what brings me true joy. I work from home, so if your pet needs care at any point during the day, I’m your gal. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! I work from home, so my schedule is flexible! I will occasionally have to go into the office, but that will be indicated on my calendar. I will absolutely follow your lead. I want to make sure your pet feels the utmost comfort and safety when around me. If that means extra cuddle time, fine by me. If they want space, that's okay too. I never want you to worry when you're away from your fur baby!

“Victoria is wonderful!! Having to leave our dogs at home is always difficult, but knowing Victoria was taking good care of our pups and giving them lots of snuggles was comforting. She even checked with me about halfway through our trip to see if she needed to pick up more meds for our one dog. She had noticed there were enough meds for while we were gone, but checked to see if we had another bottle or if we needed her to pick one up before we returned. That really impressed me! She also brought various puzzle toys of her own to keep our pups engaged and entertained. We will definitely book Victoria again in the future!”

“Claudia was wonderful with all 3 of my pups. She was on time for the 2 days she came over to look after our furbabies. She is reasonably priced (especially for 3 dogs) and I will be requesting her again!”

Jennifer S.

“I am a very nervous pet parent. Mike was so chill and kind. Goose absolutely adored him! He was so responsive when we needed to check in and he adhered to everything we asked. It was such a relief having such a kind person take care of Goose while we were away! We will definitely be rebooking!!”

About: I’m new to Rover and am a life-long pet lover eager to provide assistance to pet owners in need. I will treat your pet like my own due to my sincere love for animals. I have many years of experience taking care of dogs and don’t have a pet of my own at the moment, so I am able to be available more often. I am available Monday-Friday from 430pm until the evening, and whenever on Saturdays and Sundays. I am open to same day bookings if you have last minute plans and need help, please let me know! :) I will make sure your pet is well taken care of and comfortable. Upon arrival I will make sure their water bowl is filled with cold fresh water and can feed them if this is something that is needed. I will also make sure there is nothing hazardous within their reach or on the ground to ensure they are safe until your return

“Rosanna provided our dog Gilbert with outstanding care! She sent updates and communicated frequently. I would highly recommend! We will definitely use again!”

“Yana took the time to visit with our family before staying at our home with Charlie. He had instantly taken to her gentle manner which made us feel so comfortable. She exercised patience with his sometimes stubborn but lovable manner. We loved her daily texts with pictures outlining how the day went. I feel at ease knowing she is caring for our Charlie.”

Patricia E.

“Kate was fantastic. Very communicative and adapted to the crazy weather conditions to make sure our pets are taken care of. I slept great knowing she was there to take great care of our critters.”

Andrea S.

About: I live with two medium sized mutts and two fluffy orange cats, and until just recently, a fish and a snake. I have decades of experience caring for animals of all kinds, from puppies and kittens to seniors pets and those with illness and special needs. I am skilled with giving meds, including oral meds, eye drops and insulin injections, to both cats and dogs, and can usually trim a pet nails, if needed. I have engaged in formal, professional obedience training with own my dogs and would be happy to use what i learned to help reinforce some basic training with your dog(s) as well! I own a home-based retail business, but have a fairly flexible schedule. Let me know when you need services and I can usually fit it in to my day or evening. I listen carefully and will follow each client's instructions and preferences, and can reinforce any training the pet is being given. I would care for your pet as if they were my own.

About: Been around dogs my entire life and when I was in high school I got one of my own. A beautiful German Shepherd I named Rocky, who stole my heart. His energy was always high and puppy like, but he was well behaved and calm when it was time to be. He has recently passed, but he lives on in my heart. I raised him on my own from a pup through potty training, chewing, and walking on leash. He would respond to basic and advanced commands also able to walk off leash without running off. I have recent experience with senior care just having gone through caring for a sick and elderly dog. He was around 95 pounds and I was able to help him get around, I’m capable to assist any elderly dog however they might need it. Started my own personal training business, but most people are available after normal business hours. So that leaves me free with large breaks during the day which would be perfect for me to baby sit while their owner is working. My schedule is mostly flexible, allowing for long walks and supervised relaxing, but if any type of emergency were to come up, my partner works from home to administer care and constant love so don't be worried your pet will never be alone. We have a house with a fenced in yard. We can walk, play or just hangout. I like to go on a walk first to make sure your dog is comfortable with me, and I will do whatever is possible to make sure your dog is loved how you would love them. If they’re comfortable using a crate I can provide them with one and a soft bed. I have dog bowls for water and will feed them as often as you prefer. Your pet will be physically and mentally simulated making sure they don’t get bored and are always having fun.

About: I have several years of personal experience taking care of a myriad of pets. Most being with my personal dogs, but also helping my neighbors out during their vacation months I take care of my pets everyday and stay on top of their feeding, walking and routines such as medication. each dog is different with their own unique needs. With a fenced in yard and plenty of space for the animal to roam about they will be given many opportunities to get their energy out or just relax!
