She is absolutely the best! She was supposed to drop in for 30 minutes, but she spent several hours and even took my dog to the dog park because she knew I’m overwhelmed with the bar exam and moving🥹🥹🥹 I can’t thank her enough and highly recommend her.

Rachel is the best! She has watched our cat consistently for about a year, and they get along so well. We’re sad to be losing her (as we’re moving), but so grateful for the many times we could count on her.

Angela is simply amazing! She took care of my two cats for the past two weeks, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. From the very beginning, she was professional, kind, and clearly passionate about animals. She took the time to get to know each of my cats—their personalities, quirks, and routines—and made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well-loved while I was away. I received regular updates, and photos that showed just how relaxed and content my cats were (which says a lot, since they can be pretty shy with new people!). Angela kept everything spotless, made sure they ate well, and even went the extra mile to keep their favorite toys and cozy spots just the way they like them. Coming home to two calm, happy cats and a tidy home was such a relief. I could tell they truly bonded with her. I trust Angela completely and will absolutely be booking her again in the future. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and genuinely wonderful with pets, Angela is the one!

Birger was incredibly quick to respond after I needed an emergency check in for my cat. (The cat sitting service I had booked turned out to NOT be caring for my cat.) Birger was responsive, sent pictures, and hung out for a bit after addressing food, water, and litter. So grateful for the great care, will definitely be rebooking in the future

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and other animals (cats, hamsters, chickens, goats) since I learned to walk. I was raised with German Shepherds and couldn’t imagine life without my big fur balls. I will walk (and love on!) dogs of all shapes and sizes for however long your fur baby needs. I’ve helped raise and train three shepherd puppies to date so I am happy to help with training as well. I can’t wait to meet your pup! I work part-time in childcare so I have a highly flexible, open schedule. I’m generally available 8am to 9pm on a Monday to Friday timeline, with weekends occasionally open as well. Check my schedule for particular days as I get booked at random, and please reach out if you need a recurring walker. I treat every pet with kindness and empathy. I am a positive reinforcement-only trainer and will always lead with enthusiasm. I’m very receptive and can be quiet with a scared pup, athletic with an energetic one, or strong with a worker breed. I maintain safety at all times and will treat your pup with the supervision and care they deserve. Finally, I’ve handled everything—slobber, snot, dirt, poop—you name it, I’ll take care of it and return your dog happy, clean, and content.

Katie is the most communicative sitter we’ve ever had. I couldn’t recommend her more! Katie was so kind and caring towards our 2 cats, we received so many pictures and detailed recaps. Our cats adjusted to Katie si quickly, and we felt super at ease while we were away. Thank you Katie for everything!

About: About this sitter: Just moved to Weehawken. I grew up with dogs and have always been a huge dog lover and have plenty of pet care experience. My Labrador, Maizie, recently passed away, and Im now ready to be around dogs again. It's been a huge loss for me, and I currently can't have a dog where I live. I am in much need of some dog love. If you're looking for someone who is a true dog lover and will give a ton of love and attention to your pet, this includes any pets you have. Please reach out, and we can set up a time to do a meet and greet. I currently work during the day, but I will be available from 4:30 pm to 10 pm. Weekends, I am available as well; times vary. I offer dog walking, pet sitting, drop-in visits, house sitting, and overnight stays, depending on clients' and animals' needs. I'm very respectful of privacy and personal space when I am house-sitting or doing overnight stays. If you need a background check, I can provide that information.

About: Experience walking and caring for dogs and cats. I have fostered several animals throughout college and have trained dogs of all ages. My own pet is AKC Caine Good Citizen Certified and I have a research background in dog Vet Care and can make adjustments to care based on breed and any current health issues. I make time to take my own pet out on adventures and I'd love to be able to take yours out for some fun as well! I'm vigilant of potential dangers with care for a pet outside of their home. I take notice of areas/ other pets to avoid and will physically step in to protect your pets boundaries.

About: Well to begin with, I have experience walking numerous dogs since the day I was born. My love for animals in general is immense, contributing to the positive well being of animals is my passion and being able to focus that into a career is something I would have never imagined simply by making sure dogs go when they need too. It all began by simply watching over dogs, and then it lead into feeding them and eventually I took it upon myself to walk them. The first dogs I took care of was a chunky miniature pincher and a 70 lbs pit bull terrier, I am not prejudice towards animals specifically dogs since they are in my field and I have years of experience with different breeds of all sorts. As I am a new LLC on the rise I am in the midst of obtaining my ARC certifications for the health and general knowledge of animals, considering on a professional level I take this very accordingly and not enough dog walking companies supply the same for their walkers. Being trustworthy, reliable, respectable, caring and cautious are few of the many traits I carry and endorse for my business in which I believe are critical in the dog walking business.Every dog is unique, just like a person I would not want to disrespect their space and have them catch a bad vibe from me. I like to make sure I build comfort with the dogs I work with considering not many may be comfortable with letting someone unfamiliar walk them, my specialty. Walking dogs for me personally is never something I like to do in a haste, I enjoy in executing my job correctly and efficiently. I make sure every walk is special at times they come back home with a better attitude than the dogs left in. My main goal for the dogs are exercise, safety, fun and making sure they use the bathroom enough. I am a full time dog walker and lifetime animal lover so meeting accommodations for him or her is never a problem. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile hopefully I gain the opportunity and trust of being able to walk your furry child! Taking care of pups is my daily life. I have my own pups so it comes to me naturally, to want to take care of others! I do this full time! First of all, i make sure the pup is as comfortable as possible make them feel as if the parents are home. I walked them as many times as possible, keep all their needs up to date & give lots of love.

About: I don’t just watch pets but I truly bond with them! I’ve had my own cats for years and have been the trusted dog sitter for my family and friends since college, so I’ve seen it all and loved every minute of it. I’ll make sure to send you plenty of photos so you can see exactly how much fun they're having. My goal is to make sure your furry babies feel safe, happy, and totally spoiled while you’re away! I have flexible in office days but typically go in on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. I will be home all day Monday and Friday as I usually don’t make plans during the week. I’m mostly home over the weekend if I don’t make plans. I make sure to regularly update my availability to reflect my exact schedule, so you can always count on me being there when I say I will. My husband is also around most of times! Whether it’s a workday or the weekend, your pet will have constant companionship and a steady routine. My priority is keeping your pet’s routine as normal as possible to keep them happy and stress free. In my home, your pet becomes part of the family, with plenty of cozy spots for naps, dedicated playtime, and a safe, supervised environment where they can feel right at home. Regardless of the setting, I make sure they get all the exercise, cuddles, and mental stimulation they need, topped off with daily updates to let you know how they’re doing. I live in a spacious 2 bedroom so your pet will have plenty of space to roam around as well. I would love to have a details and instructions as I know every pet is different and I’m very good at following the instructions!

Murray was an excellent cat sitter. He fed and played with my cats every day and even got my most timid cat to come out of hiding. He also took care of some minor things when I asked him like a camera the cats knocked over. I am really glad I hired Murray and Ana to take care of my cats while I was gone - and my cats were glad as well.

Our first time on Rover was rewarded in a heartwarming experience with Severine who was not just caring about our little calico baby Aeva, but showered her with love and compliments, calling her the softest cat she had ever held. Would highly recommend Severine, who is adept at all types of cat food prep, cat treats + fetch for exercise and even litter cleaning! Enjoy your holidays with peace of mind!

Katherine was kind and personable, and was sweet and playful with my cat boys. On short notice, she came and took care of them while I was away, following an unfortunately convoluted list of directions from me to the letter. I'm so thankful for her - wonderful sitter! I'll be inviting her back for future trips.
