“This is the second time we leave our pup with Daniel and he's officially our go-to sitter. He and his wife give and show much care and the communication/business side of things always runs smooth. Thanks again Daniel! Till the next time 👋”
“Carol was EXCELLENT with our dog. She was available for a meet and great ahead of time and watched him for a full week. During that week, she treated him with the utmost love and attention, truly as if it were her own dog. She was also very responsive to messages and sent updates as requested. We felt so at ease and comfortable knowing our fur baby was in good hands while we traveled. One of the best rover experiences we’ve had to date! Will absolutely use her again.”
“Chris was great with my dogs, Moose & Pac! He shared daily updates with photos, which was greatly appreciated! His fenced in backyard was a major plus for us, and his dog, bunker, was great with my large breed dogs. We will gladly be going back to Chris for any future dog sitting needs!!”
“I have been so impressed with Natalie - she is truly an animal lover and took care of my chai like her own. Shes took him for walks, gave him treats, played with him, sent me pictures and updates along the way - I felt so comforted leaving him with her. She’s truly amazing!”
“Carolina took such good care of our two dogs. They had so much fun playing with her dog as well. She sent daily updates about how they were doing which was perfect since we were so far away from home for over a week. We really appreciated her taking care of them. We highly recommend her loving care.”
“Everything was great! Julia took wonderful care of our Maisie. We didn’t have to worry at all, knowing she was in good hands. It helped make for a relaxing weekend for us.”
“My husband and I left our lil pit with Brody and his girlfriend Savannah a month ago for over a week while traveling in Europe and we were extremely happy with them and how it all went. They are very sweet, caring and clearly huge dog lovers. A bonus was that they live only four minutes walking distance from us (yet I randomly found Brody on here). We were updated daily (sometimes multiple times a day) on how Dobby was doing and sent fun photos. It really put our minds at ease that she was in good hands and having fun with her new friends. I highly recommend Brody and Savannah and will most definitely be using them again in the future.”
“Dawn was absolutely amazing. She sent photos and videos and made me feel like she really cared about Zuki very much. we can’t wait to have zuki with dawn again. thank you so much!”
“This was our first time using Jake & Mischa and they were awesome! They communicated with us and sent us pics of our pup. They also offered to drop him off and pick up which was a nice perk! Thank you guys for taking such good care of Bowser.”
“Took excellent care of my Lola and I was going through a crisis and they really helped me out so much couldn’t have had a better experience and then actually even brought Lola home to me I’m so so grateful was so comforting to me because Lola is my baby and it was so helpful definitely would use them again if I stay in this area they are my to go help people for Lola cannot say how much I appreciate it knowing that Lola was in there care”
“Jillian and her family were great. It started with a welcoming meet and greet, followed by over a week long visit of kindness and care for our Marley. Pictures and videos were sent which gave us joy seeing him. Our Marley seamed very happy. It was like home away from home. Thank you to Jillian and her family! I will definitely use them again to care for our Marley.”
About: I am a true animal lover and I would treat your animals as my own. I have lots of pet care experience from having my own of 2 cats and 1 dog and taking care of some friends. I have done 2 years of pet therapy with my own dog and completed basic to advanced dog training. I have volunteered for father john animal house and eleventh hour rescue to get some shelter experience and more dog exposure. I would prefer to work with small to medium dog size. My second hobby is animal training which is a rewarding experience to me from dog socialization to learning basic commands. I just love working with dogs and is rewarding in seeing the dog learned the command. As i like to walk daily, pets fit into my daily schedule perfectly. Our daily morning schedule usually 7 days a week is potty upon awakening, breakfast and playtime upon first hour. Then a morning walk and another one around dinner time. I have a unfenced yard but believe exercise is a high requirement for the dog. What i do in place is 2 daily neighborhood walks and take her occasionally to local parks to walk around for different smells and meet other friendly dogs. Also believe in going to any local dog events for shelters to give dog interactions/ socialization.
About: We offer loving and compassionate dog boarding or drop-ins and cat drop-ins. Dog boarding is at our home with a large, fenced-in yard and plenty of room to play and roam around. We never take more than one dog guest at a time and take extra special care of your pet while you are gone, including walks and cuddles. My husband and I have been taking care of dogs and cats a combined 30 years and have both had dogs since childhood. I lived with dogs (2 Jack Russel Terriers and a black Lab) for over 20 years and have had my own cats for the past 10 years. I know how to walk, bathe and feed. BONUS THAT REALLY SETS ME APART FROM OTHERS 😅: I am a pet intuitive and add Reiki for pets into my services if it's wanted. I am a stay-at-home mom and can care for your pets in the morning and at night 7 days a week. I am also able to do small drop-in visisg throughout the day as needed. Currently, I can only care for your pets in your home. We have play and snuggle time depending on what your pet needs, feed and clean litter boxes.
“First time leaving Mollie with Maria. Maria was great! Mollie was not only well cared for, she was very happy and comfortable. Maria is very responsive and sent us lots of pictures and updates. And it was obvious that she actually enjoyed having Mollie as a guest! Would definitely use her again.”
“Melissa and her entire family were great. Our highly energetic Australian Shepherd had a wonderful stay. Melissa sent us updates including pictures and videos. Bailey was walked and had play time with several other dogs. We had great confidence in leaving our dog with Melissa and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for care.”

Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

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 pet, 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.
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 .
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
