“When I met Nasreen I was so happy because I immediately felt she had a kind spirit. She was ready and waiting when I dropped Sampson off. I got cute photos of him during the day. My fur baby was happy and calm when I picked him up so I could tell he had a great day! Thank you Nasreen.”
“Josephine’s first stay with Pardeep was seamless. Pardeep was very accommodating with my schedule and provided a safe, calm, enjoyable day for Jo. He kept me up to date on her as the day went on and that is always reassuring. His dogs were friendly and respectful which I greatly appreciate due to Josephine being a senior. I would gladly recommend him and will seek his care for Josephine again soon.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs since age 12, worked alongside a professional trainer, and raised my own Pitbull and I am now raising a Havanese. Experienced with multiple breeds, puppies through seniors, I bring patience, structure, and genuine love. If you are new to Rover, use my code https://www.rover.com/sit/charlv18304, to get $40 OFF your first booking. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I maintain a flexible schedule while job searching, allowing me to provide reliable walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and attentive companionship throughout the week. I create a calm, secure environment by following each pet’s routine, monitoring behavior closely, and maintaining clean, pet-safe spaces. I communicate regularly with owners and prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency. I have fenced in yard and one friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. If needed I also have crates if your baby feels more comfortable in their own safe space.
“Esther took amazing care of Enzo! This was one of his first daycare experiences, and she made us feel completely at ease. She kept us updated with photos and a detailed summary of his day, which we really appreciated. I highly recommend Esther to anyone looking for someone who is caring, attentive, and trustworthy. We will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you, Esther, for taking such great care of Enzo!”
“Ginnette is Wonderful!!! I am very cautious when it comes to the proper care of my 2 Boys (having some extra physical needs and diet requests.) We started with a meet & greet, and then a day care. Ginnette is everything I am looking for in a pet sitter–providing a calm, secure, safe and loving environment…she gained my trust very quickly. While worried they would be nervous in a new home, within an hour she sent me a picture of them super relaxed sleeping on her sofa. I sincerely appreciated the pics / updates I received during their stay…I know she took extra time to really get to know them. They were happy when I picked them up and Fozzie actually cried for Ginnette when she walked out of the room! I agree with another review that called her a “Dog Whisperer”! I am thrilled to have Ginnette care for the Boys for future stays!”
About: I have loved and cared for animals for most of my life. Growing up, I raised and cared for dogs and many other household pets, which taught me responsibility, patience, and attentiveness from a young age. One of my earliest experiences was helping care for a mother dog and her newborn puppies. Since moving to the United States 15 years ago, I have regularly helped friends and neighbors care for their pets while they were away. In my professional life, I have been an elementary school teacher for the past ten years. My experience working with children has strengthened my ability to be patient, observant, dependable, and responsive to individual needs. I treat every pet with the same level of care and attention that I would give to a member of my own family. I am a full-time elementary school teacher during the school year. During the summer, I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day to provide care, supervision, companionship, and exercise for dogs. Because I am home for most of the day during summer break, I can accommodate regular walks, feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I am committed to maintaining your pet’s routine and ensuring they feel comfortable and cared for while you are away. I live in an end-unit townhouse in a safe, pet-friendly neighborhood with nearby walking paths, parks, and green spaces. My home provides a calm and comfortable environment where pets can relax and feel secure. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and daily routines. I supervise pets closely, keep them on leash during walks unless otherwise directed in a secure area, and make safety my top priority at all times. I understand that every dog has unique needs, and I strive to provide individualized care that helps them feel at home.
“Isbath and her family welcomed my puppy Koltrane with open arms. I was grateful that they were able to accommodate me at the very last minute and provide daycare services for 4 days straight. They provided a safe backyard for play and potty breaks, and enrichment time. My puppy tried to run back into the yard the 1st day when I picked him, and was always excited to return and play. They were understanding of all Koltranes excitable energy which made me comfortable with bringing him back. Highly recommended.”
“Pam is amazing with my young puppy, she’s made him more confident and social & he comes home tired from a long day of play! She is communicative and incredibly gracious with flexibility. Will continue to book her moving forward! Her father who helps watch the pups is also an absolute pleasure :)”
“Myah had a great time at Jamie's playing with Ollie! This was her first time and she was excited to be going when we pulled in the driveway. She came home very happy and tired!”
“Tom is very easy to talk to and very accommodating. Communication was quick. Tom also sent a lot of pictures in which my dog Toby seemed very happy and relaxed. Definitely will be back. Highly recommend.”
“Lupe was amazing from the initial conversation online to meeting in person. I could feel that our dog was in safe and reliable hands and he took such good care of him and got the best photos. Can’t wait to use him again!”
“As usual Levi had a great time with Jessica. He was tired and ready for bed when we came home which was perfect since it was late. Jessica was very accommodating to us running behind schedule due to traffic.”
“Kumud is an incredible dog sitter. She’s gone above and beyond to ensure that our high energy pup is cared for, exercised, and comfortable. Her yard is the ultimate playground and she always makes sure the dogs are playing nicely together. Her dog, Kai, is sweet and playful and welcomes others in. Kumud’s family is really sweet and I trust that Zoe is safe in their care. I highly recommend Kumud’s services.”
“Alice is great with my special needs senior dog Porter. He is happy every time he sees her, and she is very responsible with catering to his special needs, allergies and medical conditions. She is very communicative and lets me know any changes observed in Porter during his stay, plus sends cute pictures regularly. I trust her with my deaf/blind senior completely.”
About: Experience helping raise puppy/younger dogs and training, also have experience with adult/senior foster dogs. Includes walking, bathing, trips to the dog park, feeding, training, treat/crate training I also looooove brushing dogs, the fluffier the better! I like to stay home on weekends with my senior dog Sapphire. Shes a rescue and very calm (she doesn’t bark) and absolutely loves other dogs! We love to take walks and play on the patio outside. I am pretty much free from Wednesday evenings-Saturday nights! Although I live in an apartment, I keep my living room and general space wide and accessible which is easier and less stressful for the dogs. I have a back patio we can play on (not black so the heat won’t hurt their paws), and have a park and yard across the street! I will give your pup lots of love and cuddles and they will definitely be a little spoiled! I also will feed them in a separate area from my dog but bring them back together to play :)
“Ashe always has the best time in daycare! I love seeing her run in and forget about me the moment we arrive. Julissa treats all the pups in her care like her own and gives them plenty of dog and human socialization and playtime. We always look forward to bringing Ashe back!”
“This was a last minute booking for Layla and I was excited to see Layla refusing to go home at the end. Tanvi is an excellent host and I'll definitely be a repeat customer pretty soon!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and former fur mom to my beloved Morkie, who was part of my family for 14.5 wonderful years until she passed away in 2023. I currently work from home most days, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. I’m also an experienced dog aunt and have been puppy-sitting my Golden Retriever “fur niece” for the past year, giving me recent experience with larger, energetic dogs as well. I’m a mom of two boys, ages 3 and 7, who are in school and daycare during the day. They have grown up around dogs and are gentle, loving, and respectful of animals. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet because I’ve been in your shoes. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where your furry family member feels at home while you’re away. I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own—with lots of love, attention, and belly rubs! What you can expect from me: 🐾 Plenty of supervision due to my work-from-home schedule 🐾 Regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and cuddles 🐾 Experience caring for both small and large dogs 🐾 Updates and photos so you can feel connected while you’re away 🐾 A calm, loving, family-oriented environment I can’t wait to meet your furry family member and give them the care and affection they deserve! ❤️🐾 I work from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the day to provide attentive care, frequent potty breaks, playtime, walks, and plenty of companionship. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine, and I enjoy having furry company while I work. Your pet will receive lots of supervision, love, and attention rather than being left alone for long periods. Safety is my top priority. My home was always dog-proofed when I had my Morkie, and I continue to puppy-proof it whenever my Golden Retriever fur niece stays with us. I make sure there isn’t anything pets can get into that could be unsafe, and I have a dog gate available to create secure spaces when needed. I provide a clean, supervised, and loving environment where pets are treated like family and can feel safe and comfortable while in my care. 🐾❤️
“Noria took the time to meet up with me the day prior to make sure my dog could meet her. She took great care of her, sent me pictures throughout the day, it was easy to tell my dog didn’t want to leave upon being picked up! Highly recommend her and would gladly book again.”

Esther was amazing. She sent me lots of updates and seeing Cooper snuggled next to her reassured me that he was in good care. I was able to know he was in good hands while out. I would definitely ask her to watch Cooper again. They treat the dogs they are watching like family!
Lupe is fantastic!! He is so good with our pup and we feel so grateful to have found him!! He is so friendly and welcoming. He goes above and beyond to make sure all of our dog’s needs are met. We had an emergency and he was super accommodating and made sure that our dog was in good hands. He has an awesome large yard that our dog loves to run in. Highly recommend!
Tu-anh was so kind and responsive, she accommodated us last minute on the holidays and took great care of my large dog. She sent me updates and pictures throughout the day and was quick to respond to all messages. If you're looking for a caring and communicative pet sitter, Tu-anh is your gal!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your South Bound Brook commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 6,840 sitters in South Bound Brook, 86% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
