“This was Lisa's first drop-in visit with Bogey, who is a rescue , previously abused, and normally reserved around new people. He and Lisa got along very well. She took the time to meet Bogey in advance, arrived on time, and obviously cared about making him comfortable, something that is not easy to do. I was very pleased with the care Lisa gave him, and I will be scheduling her in the future. It is my hope that she will be my "go to" person when I need a dog sitter.”
“What can we say, we loved Kate from the moment we met her. When she came to the house to meet Willy, she sat right down in the floor with him, petting and scratching behind his ears. Very good communication and went above and beyond when we ran out of his 2 prescription meds and went to pick them up for us. Definitely will be using Kate moving forward.”
“Elizabeth was awesome! Always on time, very communicative and sent us the cutest photos of our girl, Carly. She took great care of her, we will definitely book her again!”
“Erin was very kind and caring with my two cats that are very frightened of strangers. It was good to see the pictures of them to see they were doing fine without us there for their first time with us being away for a long period of time. She was very prompt in getting to them at the designated times. I will definitely request her again.”
“Having Rachel there to care for our pet while we were away gave us such peace of mind. She was on time, super attentive and responsive. Our pet needed medication and she had no problem giving them. We will definitely call her back for future needs.”
“Shoshana did a fantastic job watching our cats while we were on vacation. Her daily texts and photos made us relieved that they were in good hands. Some of our cats are shy but they warmed up to Shoshana quickly. Highly recommended!”
About: What sets me apart? I’ve been fostering puppies for years and have two dogs of my own (7 & 4 years old) who are my world. Your pup will be loved like family! A little about me… I’m a stay-at-home mom of 3, and during the pandemic, I began volunteering with a local dog rescue and I still do to this day! I also had the chance to foster several wonderful pups during that time. Dogs have always been a part of my life, but it was when I got my sweet Lulu (who’s now 7 years old!) that I truly fell in love with learning about training, structure, and creating a happy, balanced environment for dogs. Your dog’s safety is my top priority. With a secure fenced yard, years of fostering experience, and two friendly resident pups, your furry friend will feel right at home, loved, safe, and cared for. 🐾❤️
“As always, Madison is absolutely amazing with my cat. He loves her! She is prompt and sends the best pics. She is so trustworthy and highly recommended!! She has become my sweet Oliver’s regular sitter since I travel quite often.”
About: I was so fortunate to grow up with pets of my own. When I was in college, I had several families who I taught piano to their children ask me to walk their dogs and also to stay at their homes while they traveled. I naturally enjoyed it, and the families started referring me to other people. I have had the opportunity to care for dogs, cays, birds, fish, bunnies, ferretts, and reptiles. I'm now a mom to 3 children who also love animals. We have a 5 year old cockapoo who thinks he's one of the kids, because he's such an important piece of our family. I have had the opportunity over the years to gain experience working with puppies and kittens through geriatric age. I have also helped families with general training to help them keep up their routine. I am not a trainer. I am however happy to utilize commands you share with me to provide the best relationship and care for your pup. I am very fortunate to have a very flexible schedule which has allowed me to grow wonderful relationships with local families I have a very flexible schedule and can usually take same day appointments. I'm happy to help however I can. I feel fortunate to have the flexible schedule that I do! I prefer to care for pets at your home. It is important to me to know all information that will keep your pet safe! What is your pet's routine like? How do they react to new people? How do they react to a new person when you're not around? Do you have a fenced in yard to play in or prefer only a leashed walk? What are words that you use when another dog is approaching or if you don't want your dog to try to chase a squirrel? Do you provide positive reinforcement? Are you currently working on any training? Has your dog ever shown aggression? How friendly is your dog with other dogs? These are some examples of the things it is very important for us to discuss so that I can ensure I am fully prepared for any situation as your pup and I become new friends and get to know each other.

“Kelsey was amazing with our 3 pups while we were away for a few days! We opted for 2-3 daily check in visits which worked great for our dogs. Our three dogs are different ages and have slightly different care needs. Kelsey was able to accommodate them all and our dogs seemed happy and calm while we were away.”
About: I have had dogs all my life. I have pet sat for dogs of all breed, age, and size. I was a bather at Petsmart and I worked at Red Bank Veterinary Hospital in Tinton Falls as a veterinary assistant and handled dogs all the time. I currently am in between jobs so I am able to pet sit full time. I can do drop in visits as well as staying over in your home. I stay over at clients houses to keep the pets comfortable in their own environment. I keep the house tidy and can clean the house is wanted. I make sure how ever the pet is used to there owners taking care of them I take care of them the same. I feed, take out, crate if they get crated, etc.
“Catherine is great! I knew from our meet and greet that she is a genuine animal lover! She immediately got down onto the floor to calmly and gently introduce herself to my cat. Dani went right up to her with confidence. Catherine took such good care of my Dani while I was on vacation. She made sure that she had plenty of food and water each day and tended to the litter box. Catherine took time to pet, brush, and play with Dani too. She also took a lot of great photos. I could see from the photos that Dani was thoroughly enjoying Catherine’s company and attention. I will definitely use Catherine in the future and confidently recommend her pet sitting services to others.”

“I am writing to express my highest recommendation for Rose. I would trust no one more with my furry children than her. Rose cares for my pups as if they were her own, and they are always happy tails wagging and smiling when we drop them off. There are only three people I would ever leave my dogs with, and she is one of them.”

She is also extremely helpful in last minute binds, I have had to use her multiple times with little to no notice.”
Rebecca K.
“In the 20+ years that I have known Rebecca, I have always seen her demonstrate so much love and caring for all animals including her personal family pets. Her special gift to intuitively understand what each pet needs plus her experience with a variety of pets is a winning combination for "excellence in pet care".”

Squankum pet parents share their Rover experiences
I have booked Catherine for a second time with my cat. Catherine is great! She takes good care of my Dani. Catherine takes the time to brush her, play with her, and offer her a little catnip. I love the photos that she takes of my cat too! Catherine makes Dani feel loved and cared for when I am away. It’s such a relief knowing that Catherine is such a dependable and compassionate pet sitter.
Lina is the BEST. She was incredibly communicative, dependable and sent us lots of photos of all three furbabies (even of the one who hides!!). She administered medication 2x a day for our Brutus. Lina will be our go-to in the future for all pet drop-ins. :)
