“Juan and his family took great care of our dog while we were out of town for a week. He was quick to respond to our messages and provided us with updates as to how she was doing. We would gladly use his services again in the future.”

About: I’ve had rescue dogs for decades, and each one has had their own personality and unique socio-emotional needs. That experience taught me patience, flexibility, and how to make even the most sensitive or anxious dogs feel safe and loved. I typically took my own dogs for 3–5 mile walks every day — so if your pup needs lots of exercise, I’m ready! I’m also experienced with senior dogs, including administering medications and adjusting walks and playtime for their comfort. Whether your dog is a high-energy walker, a nervous rescue, or a sweet senior, I care for them as if they were my own. Because I work from home, caring for pets is woven right into my day. I can easily step away for walks, playtime, or a cuddle break — and honestly, it’s the best part of my workday. My work and life schedule is flexible Monday through Friday, so I can adjust to your pup’s needs, whether that’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or afternoon hangs. Your dog becomes part of my daily rhythm, not just a quick stop on a busy schedule. I can also sometimes be available on weekends with a little advance notice, please just ask! Your pet’s safety and happiness come first. I’ll follow your instructions closely and keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel safe and secure. I always double-check leashes, gates, and doors, and keep a close eye on them during walks and playtime. I take time to get to know each pet and move at their pace, especially if they’re shy or nervous. And of course, I'm always happy send you updates and photos along the way, so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. Plus who doesn't love cute dog pics?!
“This was my first time taking my babygirl (cat) to any boarding or sitting services and while my baby was not the nicest Angelica was great! She made everything about the experience nice and easy, she sent me pictures and updates and responded almost instantly. I told my cat to get used to it ‘cause we’re coming back! 🖤”
“Kia took great care of our pup Winston. He was calm and behaved normally when we picked him up, indicating he was happy with the stay! Kia was kind and sent updates making us feel more comfortable as well.”
“This was my first time leaving Garci with someone. Enis made it easy and anxiety free by sending me lots of pictures of Garci looking relaxed and well-cared for. Thanks, Enis!”
About: I have a veterinary background from my home country, where I gained hands on experience working with and caring for animals. I have experience with dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and needs. My veterinary training taught me how to safely handle animals, recognize changes in behavior or health, assist with basic care and medication routines, and provide a calm and comfortable environment. I genuinely love animals and will care for every pet with patience, responsibility, and attention as if they were my own. I’m available every weekend and every day in the afternoons. My flexible schedule allows me to dedicate plenty of time to your pets for walks, playtime, feeding, check ins, and lots of attention and care With my veterinary background, I understand the importance of safety, proper handling, and attentive care. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions and routine, monitor pets for changes in behavior, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care.
“Maureen and her family were amazing! Mocha was well taken care of, we got daily updates and pictures, and she was so responsive to anything we'd needed! When I arrived to pick Mocha up, he jumped on me to say hi, and then immediately sprinted to the back of the house (not the front door) cause he'd had such a good time there!”
“We are so happy we found Kathy and Ben on Rover. They took such good care of Teddy, and he was very comfortable with them. He can be a little anxious because he is home with us most of the time, but took to them right away. They took him for many walks which he loved. They are such nice people and were so calm and sweet with Teddy! We would definitely love to have them take care of Teddy again. Thanks so much Kathy and Ben!”
“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.”
“Elizabeth and Oleg took such great care of Maia! When I picked her up she was smiley, tired from all the playtime (Maia loves to play and they followed instructions), and so happy. They were so helpful and communicative, I’m already looking to book ahead for November.”
“I have boarded my 2 dogs here a couple of times now and will continue to book again if needed. Responsive messages and updates on my dogs and is able to comply to special requests. Great experience.”
“I highly recommend Lidia! She treated my dog, Lola, as if she were her own. Lidia took Lola wherever she went, kept her comfortable at her home, and played with her often. I felt so comfortable with Lola being with Lidia while I was on vacation because the pictures sent to me showed Lola living her best life! Lidia is so kind, and I will 100% book with her again!”

I was so happy for my Bulldog Earl to receive such excellent care and also make some new friends with Carolina, her family and their dog Daisy. I was oversees and didn’t have to worry once how Earl was. She updated me daily with a note and pics. I have already used her again and will continue to do so in the near future. I might even see if she wants to set up playdates with her dog and visiting dog pals.
Marisol, John and the entire family are very dedicated pet sitters. They took the time to really understand our pets needs, and did exactly that. It is very comforting to know that while we are away our pets are being cared for and loved as if they were with us. My dog came home happy and content. We would never hesitate to use Marisol and John again! Thank you all for your wonderful care!
Desi and Marilyn were awesome. We honestly haven't left Jagger with anyone in a long time and were a bit nervous as he is 10+ years old. But after visiting Desi and a after a few days into his stay we were at ease. They made daily TikToks which were great and responded quickly when we asked how he was doing. You can tell they truly love these dogs. Best of all they are right in the same town as us. He will be back for sure
Kora was beyond well cared for with Valerie, I could not have been happier she was available. Valerie asked all the right questions to understand Kora and her needs and made her very comfortable. From the 1st pic 2 hours after drop off I could see how comfortable and happy she was. Valerie's communication was great before and during the stay, it's clear she loves animals. If Valerie is available do not hesitate to book her, made me feel comfortable quickly that Kora would be cared for well

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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.
