“When I dropped off Buddy at At Jamie’s house he was welcomed as if he was visiting his second home.Her daughters were thrilled to have Buddy there and from the pictures I was sent he made himself right at home. Her whole family enjoyed having Buddy visit and I’m so glad to have found Jamie and her family.”
“Luz, and her family, are exceptional. I will be requesting her every time we need a sitter for my dog. She was attentive and affectionate. My dog Maggie is rarely without us because the few times we have left her with others she gets very depressed. For the first time ever Maggie was actually missing her sitter. She laid by the door when we got home waiting for , what we now call, her other family. She was made to feel at home. I highly recommend Luz to anyone who has a furry family member that they want to ensure is safe, secure, and happy.”
“Nicolena was great! I highly recommend here! My dog has bad separation anxiety and she was amazing with Blaze! Kept me updated throughout his stay! She is very good with dogs and would recommend her and would absolutely leave Blaze with her again!”
About: I have several years of pet-sitting experience and have cared for both cats and dogs—from energetic puppies to senior companions. My own cat is 17 years young! I treat every pet with patience, affection, and attention, just like family. I know how reassuring updates can be, so I always share regular photos and check-ins. You can count on me to care for your pet with love and reliability. Flexible work schedule, I can typically work around you! Weekdays and weekends available. Whether it’s a daily visit or an extended stay, I’m happy to adjust my routine to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or my client’s, I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow their routines closely—feeding, walking, playing, and administering any needed medication according to their instructions. I’m respectful of the home and try to leave everything as I found it. I stay in regular contact with updates and photos so you know your pet is in good hands.
“Maya had such a great time during her weekend vacation with Suzanne! We were sent plenty of photos throughout her stay and it was clear she was enjoying her time there. Like most owners on here it's tough to leave our dogs with others but Suzanne could not have been any better. There was plenty of play time and a lot of care and attention given to her. Her poodle Lola was also very sweet and they got along really well. We will 100% book her again next time we need someone to look after Maya while we're away!”
“Nicole took great care of my dog while my family and I vacationed! She’s flexible, positive, and great with updates. We’ve never left our boy and she provided peace and trust. I would recommend.”
“Arlene was a pleasure to leave my fur baby with for a few days. She stayed in constant contact with me and sent photos daily. Will definitely reach out again to her if we need a sitter again!”
“Crystal took exception care of Bailer wile we were away for 10 days. She sent pictures on a regular basic and kept us updated on how he was doing! I will defiantly be using Crystal again when we go away.”
“What a great couple they took such great care of our rockstar we even FaceTime to in Jamaica great great great people And very loving will use her again for sure she’s worth more than five stars THANK YOU SO MUCH”
“I'm extremely grateful to have found Lauren. And Fidget sure is too! This was my first time using Rover for a pet sitter, and from the moment we met Lauren at her house for the meet and greet, any apprehension about leaving my pup started to vanish. Lauren and her family are warm, pet loving people and Fidget felt right at home. She was free to roam their large, fenced in yard, and Lauren's boys played with Fidge for as long as her furry heart desired. Lauren covered all the important details to keep Fidget's normal eating and activity schedule. I was especially comforted to receive all the photos and videos Lauren sent me while I was away. Bottom line: if you need a pet sitter for your furry friend, look no further. They'll receive so much love and attention at Lauren's household. I believe a tired dog is a happy dog, and Fidget can attest to that!”
“Dolly enjoyed her stay so much at Barbara’s that she was too busy playing to say hello when I walked in! Thanks Barbara for taking such good care of Dolly! You are one of her favorites and she can’t wait for her next stay :-)”
“Betsy took wonderful care of our senior husky, Teeko. She did a great job medicating him and cleaning up an abscess he had at the time we were away. Betsy gave Teeko ample time outside, took him for many nice long walks and even took him to a dog park! We received daily pictures and detailed updates while we were away, which was very reassuring. Betsy was very caring, kind and compassionate with Teeko, and we would definitely book with her again in the future!”
About: I have had many dogs all my life. I do have to say I love big dogs the bigger the better I say. People are always scared of big dogs but really most are harmless. As of now my schedule is free so I can work with people with what they need I will always fit u in no matter what. I will always follow the rules given to me for each animal. I know these are ur babies and I will give them all the love I have until they are back with you.
“Gwen's house is Deacon's new home away from home. The whole family is so sweet. Gwen made sure Deacon had his medication every day and sent updates at the perfect times. I cannot say enough great things about her!”
About: 13 years of experience with pet sitting, grooming and vet tech care! Capable of handling all kinds of pets and all kinds of situations safely and confidently.

Kellyann S.
“I can’t think of anyone more perfect for the job than Kell. She is truly one of the most caring and compassionate people I’ve ever known, and her love for animals, especially dogs is unmatched. Kell treats every animal as if it were her own. I’ve seen her go out of her way to make sure pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. And for someone who has been working with dogs for most of her life, she is more knowledgeable about their wants and needs than anyone I know. If you're looking for someone who will care for your dog with the same love and dedication you would, Kell is the one!”
Toms River pet parents share their Rover experiences
This was our first time using Matt for an overnight for our dog Gino. Gino had the absolute best time! Not only did Matt send us updates and pics which made us feel so comfortable and happy knowing he was having fun, Gino loved Matt’s dogs Jax and Henry. (And so do we!) We are so lucky to have found Matt! Thank you for taking such good care of Gino! See you next week!
I had such a great experience leaving my dog with Laura & Carmine while I was away for the weekend. My dog has separation anxiety and some behavior quirks, so finding the right sitters can be tough—but they were incredibly understanding, sweet, and welcoming. He was clearly well cared for, had fun, and most importantly, felt safe and relaxed in their home. I would absolutely recommend them to other pet owners and hope to book with them again in the future!
I can't rave enough about Megan and Luke and their family. They truly made my pup Brooklyn feel like part of the family. Megan sent plenty of pictures and updated me on how Brooklyn was doing throughout the weekend. I had such piece of mind, which made our mini vacation that much more relaxing. I will certainly be using her services again.
