“We’ll definitely book with Morgan again. She was ready outside for us and took Beth right into the fenced-in backyard for an easy drop off for me and easy transition for Beth. She got to play with other dogs during her stay, and came home happy and tired. Morgan let me know how Beth was doing and took a photo for the end of the day. I felt confident Beth was safe and well caree for. I like that the house was at the end of a dead end on a side street.”


“We left our lab with Sara for half a day so we could attend a nearby wedding, and she was so great with him! He's super energetic, and she was so patient with him and took him on long walks and played with him! She was also so helpfully flexible about the pickup time, because we couldn't really pinpoint it in advance. Would definitely go back if we're in the area!”


About: Hello there! We're a dog-loving couple excited to meet your furry friends through Rover. Allow us to introduce ourselves: Names: Catherine and Dan Location: Franklin, NJ Availability: Flexible, as I work from home About Us: We have been lifelong dog enthusiasts and have had dogs as part of our family for as long as we can remember. Our shared love for dogs, big or small, is something that brings us immense joy and fulfillment. We strongly believe that dogs are an integral part of the family and deserve all the love, care, and attention they can get. We are fortunate to have a spacious backyard that provides plenty of room for dogs to explore, play, and stretch their legs. It's a safe and secure environment where they can freely roam around. We take great pride in maintaining a clean and dog-friendly space that promotes both comfort and fun. One of our favorite pastimes is hiking, and we often embark on exciting outdoor adventures. We love exploring nature trails, breathing in the fresh air, and taking in the beauty of our surroundings. There's a nearby park where we frequently visit for leisurely walks, providing ample opportunities for dogs to enjoy nature alongside us. Currently, we don't have any pets of our own. However, Rover allows us to share our love and care with dogs in our community, giving us the opportunity to provide them with a temporary home away from home. We enjoy the unique bonds we form with each dog we care for and find fulfillment in providing them with a safe and loving environment. Working from home gives me the advantage of being present for your furry companion throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule, ensuring that your dog receives the attention, companionship, and exercise they need. Whether it's playtime, belly rubs, or a leisurely walk, your dog will receive our undivided attention and care. During their stay with us, your dog will be treated as a cherished member of our family. We'll follow your instructions and routines closely to ensure they feel comfortable and secure. Whether they prefer playing fetch in the backyard, going on hikes, or simply relaxing indoors, we'll cater to their specific needs and preferences. We genuinely look forward to welcoming your furry friend into our home, where they will be showered with love, care, and endless belly rubs. Contact us today to schedule a meet and greet, and let's embark on a fantastic Rover experience together!

“Amy was great! She sent us pictures and agreed to watch Aurora very quickly! Aurora had a great time she played and ran and came home absolutely tired! We will definitely be booking again!”


About: "Oh no! My pet sitter cancelled-what should I do?!?!" Look no further - My name is Lauren and I have 20 years of experience at caring for animals- dogs, cats, bunnies, birds, and fish. I currently work from home and have open availability for caring for your fur baby while your away. I live on a quiet dead end street and a fully fenced in yard. We currently have 2 dogs and 3 cats. I have an active 7 year old son who loves animals who loves all animals. For our shy friends- who need privacy and some space, there is a spare bedroom for them. Animals are free to roam around and go on our furniture and be let out as often as needed. Do not hesitate to ask me any questions. Currently, working part-time and have open availability during the week, weekends, and some holidays. I can drop in for a visit or boarding at my house. I have a fenced in yard, a 7 year old son, and live on a quiet dead end street. I have a spare room for animals that prefer alone time. I am open to care for animals at your home too.


About: Your dog becomes part of my household, which already includes a Border Collie and Jack Russel. I would not crate any dog unless absolutely required for short periods. Therefore I need to meet the dogs before commitment to ensure they are friendly and fit in for a visit. I am running my own farm business and is at home almost all the time, taking care of animals is my day-to-day activity. I only take in 1 or 2 animals at a time and already spend a lot of time walking and playing with my own dogs, adding 1-2 additional is part of the daily activities. I have 2 dogs already, they are never crated (since initial house training). I would not expect to crate any visiting dog either, unless there are specific circumstances raised by owner or if dog is destructive in the house when running free. I am the only carer for visiting dogs. While there are other people in household, I will be the sole carer and only person signing up with Rover.


About: I am an experienced dog handler and temperament tester. I have worked in shelters for the past 8 years, and help run a dog rescue. I believe in, and practice a positive reinforcement training and reward system. I will provide a safe and fun and social experience for your dog. I love dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I am also well versed in the “crate and rotate” situation in the event there are animals in my home that don’t like each other. My schedule does vary and I do work weekends but animals are never left alone for more than 4 to 6 hours. Crate trained animals are required to stay in my home. I am happy to help with that sort of training.

About: I have dog sat many times and am experienced with many breeds from the smaller pups to the larger ones. I look forward to meeting you and your pup(s). I’m currently a stay-at-home mom to my 13-month-old child, which allows me the flexibility and availability to add dog-sitting to my daily routine. Since I’m home throughout the day, I’m able to provide plenty of attention, supervision, and care for visiting pups. I have a fully fenced-in yard, providing a safe and secure space for dogs to play and relax. When I dog-sit, visiting dogs are welcome to interact with my own dogs as long as they are dog-friendly and show appropriate behavior. I always prioritize safe and positive introductions to ensure everyone gets along well.

“Our dog Fleetwood had a great time. He loved playing with the dogs at the house. He came home. Extremely tired and happy. Navile is willing to work with us during our travel to the area and entire family was actively involved in taking care of our dog. Thank you again.”


About: As a professional dog trainer, I have a deep understanding of canine body language and behavior, allowing me to tailor your dog’s stay to their unique personality and needs. Whether they love playtime, prefer quiet snuggles, or need extra structure, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. Every dog is different, and I customize my care to what works best for them! I work from home, so your dog will have plenty of companionship throughout the day. My life revolves around dogs 24/7, with most of my work consisting of Zoom meetings and training sessions. If I do leave, it’s only for 1-2 hours max—but even then, I have a live video camera set up so I can keep an eye on your pup. It even lets me talk to them and dispense treats! Whether they need playtime, enrichment, or a cozy spot to relax, they’ll always have the care and attention they deserve. When your dog stays with me, they become part of the family! I provide a safe, comfortable, and enriching environment tailored to their unique needs. Whether they love to play, relax, or enjoy the outdoors, I adjust their stay to what makes them happiest. In my home, your pup will enjoy: • Dog-Friendly Lake Access – I live on a dog-friendly lake, and during the warmer months, I can even take your pup swimming if that’s something they enjoy! • Constant Companionship – I work from home, so they’re rarely alone. • Live Video Monitoring – If I step out for a short time (1-2 hours max), I have a camera that lets me check in, talk to them, and even give treats. • Crate-Free Environment – Your dog can enjoy their stay without the need for a crate, as I have a dog-proofed home that keeps them safe while preventing them from getting into anything they shouldn’t. • Personalized Care – I understand canine body language and behavior, ensuring their routine fits their personality and comfort level. • Daily Enrichment – Playtime, mental stimulation, and structured activities to keep them engaged. • Cozy & Safe Environment – Whether they prefer a quiet nap spot or an active day, I create a space where they feel at home. Every dog is different, and I make sure their stay is as stress-free and enjoyable as possible!

Lindsay N.
“I’ve known Lindsay for 8+ years, and she has always been the person I turn to when I have any questions or concerns about my pets. She is extremely knowledgeable, caring and passionate about the well-being of animals and very admirable in her devotion to fostering dogs in need of a loving home. As an overprotective dog- mom, I know I can count on Lindsay to be there when I need someone not only attentive and responsible but trustworthy, keeping my pup safe and sound. :)”

“Carla was very professional. My Loki seemed to really like her just after the first meet. I would definitely be keeping her around for future dog sitting.”


Elizabeth S.
“When you have a new puppy, trusting an unfamiliar person or service can feel overwhelming. We were lucky to have found Liz to tend to Milo for doggy daycare 4 days a week. Not only did Liz take care of him, but Liz and her dogs helped Milo become more social and build confidence. What sets Liz apart is her genuine love for animals and her professionalism. Liz always puts the dogs' well-being first, and if anything ever affects our schedule, Liz communicates clearly and with plenty of notice. Liz is incredibly reliable, consistent, and trustworthy. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your dog as if they were their own, and give you real peace of mind I highly recommend reaching out to Liz.”
