“Jake is wonderful. We went on a trip for a week and he stayed with our older dogs. We got pictures and updates from Jake, he took them on walks and outside. The dogs are happy and the house was well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Jake. We never leave our dogs with anyone so this was a big deal and we can’t thank Jake enough for making this a great experience.”

“Purvi is a great communicator, always timely with responses. She took great care of my 2 adult dogs for a week of house sitting. I have booked with her several times. I’m always happy and relaxed leaving my pups in her care.”

“We'd definitely book with Kayla again. Super responsive, sends updates/pics, clearly great with animals. We can tell our cat liked her. Gave us peace of mind while we were traveling.”

About: Hi there, I am new to Rover but all my life I have loved and cared for animals. I got my first kitten when I was five and in my adult life expanded that love and care to dogs. I currently do not have one of my own but I am a volunteer dog walker at an animal shelter. Throughout my adult life I have had wonderful neighbors with whom we have traded dog walking and overnight care with while traveling. Now that I am newly retired I am looking to expand my time and attention to pet parents living in Annandale and Clinton. I am available to drop in, walk and play with your best friend in your neighborhood, and I can stay overnight while you are out of town to keep your dog safe and secure in their known environment. I am also happy to assist with simple chores in your home such as taking care of plants, retrieving mail and any other small but important tasks. I am also willing to board dogs and cats in my home if that is more convenient for pet parents. I am newly retired so have a fairly flexible schedule. I do stay engaged with other activities and travel, so scheduling in advance is very important to me so that when I do schedule care for a pet I want to be sure I have the time to give them the full love and attention they deserve. I am very active for my age in that I run, swim, bike and play pickleball for exercise. Rest assured I am fit enough to handle any dog on a leash. The shelter I volunteer at I deal with a variety of dog personalities and energy levels and adjust accordingly. If you are looking for a pet sitter in your home I can remain in your home for the duration, or if you are just looking for someone to stay overnight with your pet that works too. I am here to accommodate pet parents with whatever accommodations they and their pet are comfortable with. I live on a cul-de-sac with only three other homes on our street. We have a natural, wild area partially in the back and to the side of our home so there is plenty of open space. I have walked many miles throughout my friendly neighborhood streets walking my previous dogs and my neighbor's dog. While in a client's home I am willing to adhere to any schedule the pet parents desire. I am very conscientious of physical security of my property and that of others.

“Diana stayed with Nellie and Emma while my husband and I had to go out of town for a funeral. In addition, I had a mobile groomer coming that day as well. Lucky for us, Diana came earlier than originally planned and was there to bring the dogs back into our house when each one was done. I appreciated so much Diana’s flexibility in helping us out not only taking care of our pups overnight but we could still have their grooming appointments kept. Our pups were well taken care of and happy. Thank-you Diana! Highly recommend Diana.”

“Sarah stayed with our dog Molly for 2 days and nights. She did an awesome job! We could see from all the pictures and updates that Molly was well cared for. Would highly recommend Sarah!”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life. At least two dogs for as long as I can remember, but currently (and for quite some time) I have four dogs and two cats. I’ve helped train my pets from puppies and cared for them as senior so I have experience in every aspect of dogs’ and cats’ lives. Ive cared for a coworker’s pets in the past and I’ve worked with horses since I was 8. Animals are my life My weekdays are open, especially once I finish school in mid May. My weekends won’t be free for some time, unfortunately. I’m happy to sit at your home with your pets if wanted, especially during the summer, and I love to take them for walks (I know many good trails) and play with them I wouldn’t want to take pets to my home as it is very full of other animals and I wouldn’t want to overwhelm mine or your pets, however I am happy to care for your pets at your home and I will do whatever needed to make your pets comfortable, especially around a new person

“At the risk of writing such a glowing review that Jennifer becomes so popular that she's no longer available to watch our boys, I have to say having her pet sit was an across the board excellent experience. Our prior sitter bailed on us last minute and Jennifer came through with professionalism on very short notice. She came very prepared and took notes on how we like to have things done. The photos she sent every few days of our trip made us very comfortable with the level of care our boys were receiving and made it clear how much they enjoyed her company. I think it's safe to say they are still missing her! I highly recommend hiring Jennifer, and look forward to doing so again soon!”

“We will continue to book Ethan again and again. He took the best care of our large dog, checked in each day, and left the house in better shape than he found it. Super professional, kind, and our dog just loved him. Highly recommend.”

“Awesome 👏”

“Megan was wonderful with my crew. She made sure that she understood their daily routines and medication needs so that they were happy and well taken care of. She kept me updated with photos and information throughout the day, which helped me feel less stressed while I was away. She was clean and courteous with my home. I hope she will be able to care for my crew again.”

“Bridget and I were unable to meet, due to a last-minute booking, before she agreed to housesitting with my cat Lily. However, that was not an issue at all because she was very communicative and open with me with any problems in her stay. From the photos that I received, it was obvious that Lily trusted her and enjoyed her company, which is any pet parents first concern. On the last day, although I told her that she did not need to do any of it, she washed the linens from her bedroom, as as well as as the previous sitters bedroom linens, all the towels, the shower curtain, and it was obvious that she had cleaned the bathroom and the kitchen spaces as well. This was above and beyond, but I think it goes to show her attention to detail and her desire to leave your home in the same or better condition than she found it. I would not hesitate to reach out to Bridget again when I have to travel.”

“Amazing!!! Absolutely amazing! Thomas took very good care of our Golden Retriever (Broddie) and Shih Tzu (Destiny). This was our first time using Rover for dog sitting, nervous and was very impressed with Thomas willingness to bond with our furry ones and ensure that he had everything needed to take care of both dogs. Provides daily overviews of the activities, and things done throughout the day (photos included). Not only did he take care of our dogs but was willing to take care of our Ferret and Goldfish and still did an amazing job! Very clean and organized with day planning and capable of working with a provided schedule. Will totally recommend Thomas to anyone!”

“Justin was absolutely the best. He sent so many pictures told me what they were doing (my pup beau) even moved my flowers out of the sun as it was so hot he said they were dying stripped the bed and washed the sheets before he left. House was neat and most of all Beau looked great. Thank you Justin”

About: My love for animals began when I went to my grandparent's surrounded by their farm animals and pets. Eventually, I got my own chickens, dog, and cats that I take care of every day. Friends and family have relied on me to feed, bathe, watch and love their animals. I've also worked as a dog groomer and have worked with all ages and sizes of dogs. I am very patient and like to take time to learn about the animal's unique personalities. I have a very flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of time to play and care for your doggies! I am available during the week and on weekends. I provide drop-in visits, dog walking/play, feeding, bathing, cat care as well as chickens. I am currently available in the Hunterdon County area. I look forward to meeting your doggy or kitty!

About: Hi! I’m someone who has truly been around animals my entire life. I grew up caring for horses, dogs, cats, and even chickens, so handling different personalities, energy levels, and needs comes very naturally to me. I have a background in animal science along with hands-on experience as a vet tech, which means I’m comfortable recognizing health concerns, administering basic care, and making sure your pet stays safe and happy. My schedule is very flexible, so I’m able to accommodate a wide range of needs—from midday drop-ins to extended stays. I also have reliable transportation, so getting to you on time is never an issue. I’m very experienced with dog behavior and training, especially using positive reinforcement methods. Whether your dog is high-energy, shy, or needs a little structure, I adjust my approach to what works best for them. At my home, dogs have access to a large fenced yard for safe outdoor time, along with plenty of walks, play, and attention. I also have a very friendly, well-socialized dog who loves having playmates! For pets that need a little extra space or have behavioral quirks, I have fully separate areas to ensure everyone stays comfortable and stress-free. Above all, I treat every pet like they’re my own—safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. My schedule is super flexible! Week days and weekends. I can do daily or weekly scheduled walks for convenience as well. Early morning or late night visits are ok as well. I always walk clients dogs with full safety and trust in mind. I treat every animal as if it’s my own and always make sure they are happy and healthy when I leave. I have no problem cleaning up accidents in the house as well.

About: I am a 24 year old Graduate Student at Rutgers University and have been taking care of neighborhood and personal pets since I was 10! Not only have I taken care of animals in a home setting, but I have 2 years of experience in caring for animals in a veterinary setting as a veterinary assistant. I am happy to assist in any sort of special care that your pet might need - I have experience with animals of all shapes and sizes! I currently have two cats of my own that I take care of myself full-time and would love the chance to love your pet as much as you do! I currently work as a graduate student in a research lab at Rutgers University! I am very flexible and will communicate the exact times I will be caring for your pets :) I only offer services that take place in the client's home/neighborhood as I have two animals of my own! I am flexible with walk times and really enjoy nature so I am happy to take dogs for lengthy walks. I am also appreciative of any type of animal love so couch potatoes are great for me as well! I am very diligent about making sure that animals are safe with me. I ensure that when entering the home, I greet the animal gently and let them come to me. I will never push the boundaries of an animal or add stress to their home environment. I also am very detail oriented, and will make sure that your animal gets everything they need.
