“They were great! Loved getting picture updates and seeing my 3 dogs happy and playing with their 2. Great communication and flexibility with drop off and pick ups. I can tell my dogs were well taken care of and loved!”
“Laura let me book last minute and has been so flexible with my unpredictable work schedule — I truly appreciate her! She does a great job making sure your dog feels comfortable and at home, and she reassures me with updates throughout the day, which means a lot. I honestly think my dog gets triple the attention and exercise when she’s boarded with Laura. Jersey always comes home super tired and content! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Victoria did an absolutely amazing job watching our young puppy. She sent the best updates that kept us reassured he was having a wonderful time. She clearly loves dogs and cares about taking great care of them, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in great hands. I already have another booking with her and would recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter!”
“Very wonderful care! Our minds were put at ease after leaving Bailey ( this was our first time leaving Bailey with a sitter) we got many updates and pictures. We will definitely use this sitter again”
“He’s is my “Go-To”! She is so attentive to my baby and I love that she sends updates every day along with pictures throughout the day. I can tell by what she writes to me how much she loves having my baby there with her. Her entire family is so welcoming, they immediately make you feel like family. This is my second time with Jes and I plan many more visits with her.”
“Beth took excellent care of our dog, Ellie. She sent pictures and replied to our texts promptly. This is the first time in 6 years, since we adopted Ellie, that we have left her. After the meet and greet we had no problems leaving her with Beth”
“Andrew did an excellent job caring for my Charlie-baby, he sent lots of pictures and always texted me right back when I got in touch with him to ask how she was doing. When I need pet care again I will definitely be looking for Andrew💞”
“This couple was fantastic! They sent regular photos and updates on our boys. They had took our 2 pitbull boxers for the weekend and handled them so well. My husband and I would absolutely hire them again for our pet needs!”
“Kristen was so great with our cat! She made sure Tunip had quiet places to stay and calm down after being stressed from the new environment. She was also very responsive and kept me updated throughout our trip. Overall, Kristen and her family were so kind and welcoming!”
“Rachel did an amazing job with our dog. She kept us updated with how Louie was doing and sent us lots of pictures, which was great to see how he was doing. I really believe Louie enjoyed himself with Rachel and her family.”
About: I've had pets my entire life. It has been quite some time since I have owned a dog. I had the best dog of my life and since she passed away I don't think I can endure that loss again. However, I still crave interactions with man's best friend. I very recently lost my 19 year old kitty which has been difficult but I still have a 12yr old rescued cat with bad behaviors lol. I am experienced with providing oral medications and injections. I owned a diabetic cat that unfortunately died from cancer. I also have fish and cardene shrimp. I have cared for reptiles, birds, rats, mice, and other small furry friends. I am an RN but need to spend more time with critters to make my life more balanced and enjoyable. Sure, overtime as an RN pays better, but time spent with animals brings me joy. I have experience training both cats and dogs. I am a remote worker and therefore have a great deal of flexibility. Let me know your needs. I will do my best to accommodate your pet's needs. I keep my cat in the bedroom due to bad behaviors and extreme anxiety making it easy to care for another animal in our home if needed. I do not have a fenced yard but I live in a beautiful subdivision for long walks. I prefer to watch pets in their home to reduce anxiety but if your pet is very social and you prefer they stay in our home, our home is very pet friendly. Our whole family has cats and dogs and they always come to visit and get spoiled. Animals are allowed on furniture and run of our large home.
“Greta is Awesome . Always on time, keeps me updated, very experienced and takes care of my boy when I’m away. My dog is always happy to see her and always have a good time with her.”
“Jamie took really good care of my dog while I was out of town. My dog gets anxious when I'm gone, she made her feel right at home and gave her the attention she need! Received pictures showing that she felt at home! I will use her detvice again.”
“Marty is always our choice when we need someone to watch our girl. Marty is great with communication and sends photos and updates. My dog loves Marty’s yard and all the attention she gets.”
“Extremely friendly and helpful. Andrea took great care of Zia for us over a weekend. We received tons of pictures of her having lots of fun. We'll be using Andrea in the future if we need our pup boarded again.”
“Brittany was super sweet to our doggy. Always communicating with us, sending us photos, and keeping us updated. We are so grateful that Luca could stay with her, happy and safe while we were a part of a wedding this weekend. We are so happy and highly recommend her to take care of your pups.”

“This was our first time asking someone (besides family) to take care of our cats. We were a bit nervous but as soon as we met Jess, she made us feel comfortable and at ease. ❤️ Every day - twice a day - she checked in with texts and pictures which eased our anxiety. Thanks to Jess we had a GREAT first experience with Rover and we are so grateful! 🤗”
About: I’ve always had cats and love them to pieces. I’m familiar with nails, litter boxes, grooming (not styling), food, medication, any fluids or injections I’m also experienced with. I worked in an animal hospital and gained a ton of experience!
“Riann genuinely seems to love animals! She quickly picked up on each of my kittens’ personalities and even went out of her way to block off some small wires in our garage that they had been playing with—something I hadn’t even noticed. She was cheerful, dependable, and clearly attentive to their safety and well-being. I’d use her again without hesitation!”
“Elena was awesome! Super responsible, did a great job with my cats and sending pictures and updates! Definitely recommend and will be asking for her to watch our cats in the future!”
“His Honda was great!!! She sent pictures every time she visited and our pets looked very happy!! Both our dog & cat were happy & calm when we returned!! Will 100% be asking Yushonda back if she’ll have us! -)”
“Sam did an amazing job caring for my 2 kittens. You can just tell she is an animal lover and will go above and beyond. Sam followed our care and feeding instructions to the letter and shared lots of photos and updates. I highly recommend her!”
“Victoria was great to work with throughout the whole process! I booked her in the early summer for a fall trip and we did an initial meet-n-greet and then met the week before my trip so we could go over details and help both of us get more familiar with what each cat needed (I have 10 of them). All of the cats were happy and healthy and peaceful when I got home plus the house looked great when I returned. Victoria was also quick to respond during the process.”
“Always a great cat sitter, she deals with our old and grumpy ladies of the house and does so in a way that gives us peace of mind that they are well tended to. Would recommend her to anyone who asked, she’s awesome.”
“I was a bit anxious to leave my pets for a longer time, but Sarah was great! This was my second time booking with her and everything went well. She sent me timely updates and shared lots of photos during her visits! It was nice knowing my crew was in good hands.”
“We think Ainsley did amazing. First she was able to watch our dog (Fidelis) at such short notice. Second she did everything we asked. And most importantly cared for and loved our dog like a family member. Great job Ainsley! Hope to be able to have you again for next time. Thank you. My wife really appreciate all that you have done.”
“I appreciate Brittany checking on Luca and Zoe while I was out of town. Brittany was great at communicating with me about her visits and how the kittens were doing. I will definitely hire her again.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and was fortunate to grow up learning from my father, an experienced police K-9 trainer and handler. That lifelong experience gave me a strong understanding of canine behavior and the confidence to care for dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities. I have experience with crate training, potty training, leash training, introducing dogs to children and other animals, and managing food and toy resource guarding. My goal is to provide every dog with a safe, structured, and loving environment where they feel right at home. I offer in-home boarding for up to three (occasionally four) dogs at a time, allowing me to provide personalized care and plenty of one-on-one attention. Because I’m home throughout the day, puppies benefit from frequent potty breaks and routine reinforcement, while senior dogs receive the extra patience and care they deserve. I also offer drop-in visits for all types of pets and flexible pick-up and drop-off services for an additional $30 each way. For boarding stays longer than three days, I may request a four-hour daycare trial to help ensure we’re a great fit. Proof of current vaccinations is required for all boarding guests. Every day is designed to be calm, engaging, and tailored to your pet’s needs. We spend time playing, enjoying supervised outdoor time, and incorporating enrichment throughout the day while balancing exercise with plenty of rest. I do my best to maintain your dog’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, and any special instructions, so they feel comfortable, secure, and right at home while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. We live on a fully fenced one-acre property where dogs have plenty of room to play, explore, and enjoy the outdoors. Because our yard is surrounded by trees and natural foliage, I require boarding dogs to be on a veterinarian-recommended tick preventative. Whether your pet is boarding or I’m visiting them in your home, I’ll care for them as if they were my own by following their routine, respecting their individual personality, and paying close attention to their body language and comfort level. I also believe it’s important to teach my children to respect animals and their boundaries. Together, we’ve created a calm, gentle home where pets are treated with patience, kindness, and lots of love.
“Olivia has been great with my pup! She comes 2-3x every week for drop in visits and walks. She goes above and beyond and sends me picture updates and always makes sure my doggo is happy and taken care of. Highly recommend!”
About: I have cared for cats more than 14 years. I have experience with all facets of caring for young and old cats. Including grooming, giving medicine, trimming nails, and cleaning litter boxes.
“Kati was awesome! It was our first time booking with Rover and she put our mind at ease right away with our first meet and greet. I would definifley book her again. Our dog absolutely loved her! She took great care of him. She was great at communicating and was very responsive. She did everything we asked and gave our dog lots of love while we were gone. So happy to find such a great pet sitter! :)”
About: I have had cats all my life and couldn’t imagine life without one! I currently have 2 spoiled cats of my own that I love dearly. My cat, Burger is a professional havoc-creator and escape artist and he takes his job very seriously. I also take my job seriously when it comes to his, and any cat’s safety! If you have a cat that tries to get outside or has any other habits that I should know about, please be sure to share them with me at our meet and greet so that I can take extra precaution to ensure their safety while you are away. My other cat, Pesto is an extremely pampered but also very timid girl that I rescued from a neighbor’s broken down car. She has taught me how be patient and slowly build trust and now lives a glamorous life. I am committed to providing exceptional care for your kitties, shy or social!
About: I love working with all types of animals and becoming their best friend. I would love to meet your best friend! I am a very clean person and respectable to your home. I work full time as a Business Development Manager. I am pretty open on the weekends for all day and night care and on Mondays! I will always respect your rules. Please let me know what I can do to make it as familiar to your pet as much as possible!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Newark
Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
“My little Chihuahua enjoyed another fun stay with Beth today. Her two dogs are great playmates for my pup and her large securely fenced back yard is perfect for running and playing. Rudy is always happy to go stay at Beth’s house!”
“Tristan is great with my dog and always patient when I’m a little late dropping off or picking up. (So being patient with me might be more of a challenge than being patient with my puppy). I highly recommend him for daycare or overnight. While I already had an obedience trainer before bringing my dog for daycare, I can tell that he’d be a really good trainer, too.”
About: Both Matt and I have taken care of animals since we were young for friends &family. We have two frenchies both are two years old ( please keep in mind when they first meet a new dog they get very excited, can have a lot of energy and LOVE to play) We have also had experience with numerous breeds. Your fur baby will have lots of fun and love in our home. Having two frenchies, we know how high maintenance some dogs can be, that’s why it’s important to us to provide the best experience for you and your fur baby. During Monday-Friday I work 8-5. However, Matt does work from home so will be able to give your fur baby all the love and attention!( if Matt does have to step out it’s typically no longer than 2 hours but not often ) If you have any questions regarding our schedule, please feel free to reach out. If for some reason Matt does have to leave for more than a couple hours, we will block that day off as we do not believe in leaving fur babies alone for long periods. We are homebodies on the weekends as well. So someone will always be with your fur baby. We will make sure your fur baby gets plenty of walks and outside time. We live in a nice/quiet neighborhood. When the weather is nice, our frenchies love to sun bathe, play fetch, we also set up their splash pad, so we spend lots of time outside. We do allow dogs on our bed and furniture( if you allow it) we will not crate your dog unless we do have to step out ( which again is not often). During the night, we will not crate unless you prefer them in a crate. Please let us know if there is any special request and we can accommodate. We do ask for a meet n greet for any boarding to make sure your dogs and our two frenchies get along. Your fur baby’s safety and comfortability will always be our priority as well as our babies. We know how it feels leaving your fur baby and you might get anxious so we will make sure to send a daily update. *Please note we are happy to accommodate large dogs, they MUST get along with little dogs. We do only accept one large dog at a time. Please be sure to look at our pics as we do have a short fence, if your dog is known for jumping we may have to utilize a leash* **DROP OFFS/PICK UP- Please do not show up early without talking to us prior, If you are going to be late, please let us know asap, we operate around your guys times selected and schedule other bookings/meet n greets around drop offs and pick up ***
“Victoria is pleasant and went above and beyond our expectations. She accommodated our last minute request and provided texts and video during the doggy daycare stay. Would highly recommend booking with her.”
“Leah is very kind and responsive. Our dog enjoys going over and running around the big fenced in yard and playing with her dog Rosco. Leah sends picture updates and keeps you updated. Definitely recommend and will keep using ourselves!”
“After my husky's first stay with Jamie, I can say we will definitely use her services again! Bailey loved spending time at her house. The fenced yard was perfect, and Jamie provided lots of love and connectedness. Thank you, Jamie!”
About: I’ve had cats my whole life and have been taken care of dogs for 2. I have a husky at home and a yorkie. Also have a cat and bearded dragon! I’m currently a graduate student working from home. That means I have a lot of flexibility and time to fill! Taking care of your pet will mean the world to me! I have a fenced yard so they have plenty of space to run around. I have a husky that is about 6 years old, a 2 year old Yorkie, and a 3 year old cat that roam around the house. Although it will be very easy to keep them separate if needed!h
About: I have been around pets my whole life. I had a beagle that was 2 when I was born so I grew up helping care for her. I have cared for turtles, fish, and a chameleon. Currently, I have a cat that I have raised from birth. I have helped my aunt with her two golden retrievers when she needed someone to take them out during the day and feed them while she was at work or away on vacation. For the past two summers, I have cared for my uncle's 12 year-old chocolate lab when their family is on vacation. She is a senior dog that needs a little more care and consideration. I am a recent high school graduate and my summer is open. I am attending Mott Community College in the fall, so I am also not going away to school. I plan to provide service to the client at their home. I currently live at home, so I can't care for animals at my house.
About: I can provide care for complex needs animals, small animals and giant animals. I can administer medication even to animals who might not be enthusiastic about it or any other medical needs. I am currently only doing college classes and rover so I have open availability to care for your family members and all the love to give them I have a 4 foot tall fully fenced in half acre yard with a Bernese mountain dog puppy who can keep your babies company along with two dog friendly cats
“Silver was so good with Charlie! I've never left her anywhere before so I was worried, but Silver updated me throughout her stay with pictures to let me know how she was doing. I will definitely be contacting her again in the future.”
“I know Fred loved it there and loved Ziggy. Taking him home he had no stress. He had a wonderful time, and wanted to go back today. I had to look at pout face today! Thank you for taking good care of him! We will be back.. Julie Richards”
“Great environment for pups to feel safe, loved, and playful. You can immediately tell how much love and patience Kellie and Paige have for animals. The fenced-in yard is a definite plus! I had such a crazy/stressful day at work, and seeing how happy my pup was (Kellie sent pictures) made my heart full. So so happy we found this sitter!!”
About: I've had and helped care for many different animals since I was a child including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, chinchillas, and chickens. We have 2 little boys in our home as well as a laid back newfoundland dog and 2 cats. Can administer medicine if needed and will try every trick in the book if needed to make it happen. I work part time from home so I will be home almost 24/7 besides the occasional errands. Animals can be with me as much as they would like. Dogs can be taken out and walked as often as needed. Animals can be allowed the run of the house or we also have a seperate downstairs area when some alone time is preferred or needed. Cats can be enclosed in a large quiet room with a tall gate if they prefer with seperate litter box. Crates are available for use upon request.
“Great experience. Laura was waiting for Bryce and greeted him immediately. She sent pictures within an hour and I could tell he was behaving as always. Very comforting. And topper I sent a message when we would be there for pickup and she had him watching at the front door. Nice transition. I’m hopeful to use her frequently while I’m in town.”
“I’m so happy I found Diane and Grimm to care for my little Chihuahua! They have a large lovely back yard with a secure chain link fence, a covered patio and a huge shade tree. Since Diane works from home, she’s able to give each pup lots of individualized attention. They only accept one dog at a time, though, so it’s good to book well in advance.”
About: I have been around animals my entire life. I grew up on a farm with two dogs as a child and have had many different-sized animals since. Im currently laid off work while recovering from a shoulder surgery so I have open availability and my shoulder is healed so I have no restrictions on walks or animal size I own a fenced-in lot next to my house for outside time. I have one super friendly dog who loves it out there and a room with a door so I don't have to use a crate inside.

“My two labs, one 75#, one 125# (so not everyone can handle to walk them) and Jess watched them for a week while we were out of town. Did an awesome job, highly recommend. ❤️”

“Daisy is always flexible and so sweet. She is hilarious with her stories of their adventures on her Rover report. And the pictures she gets to go along with her stories are the best! She’s so good with Harley, especially since she’s a large Great Dane that can be a little reactive to her environment. But Daisy is so amazing and patient with her. They always have fun together!”

About: Hello! I’m Lily and i’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes for several years. My love for animals has always existed but growing up, we did not have an adequate household to take care of a dog. As a kid, I volunteered regularly at a local animal shelter and began pet sitting for friends and neighbors at the age of 13. By the time I was 19, I had saved up enough money and did enough research to get a dog of my own who I absolutely adore! When it comes to caring for your pets, I appreciate any notes on routines, medication instructions (if applicable), or any details that you think I could find useful before caring for your pet to ensure that they have a happy, and most importantly safe stay with me! I have experience with reactive dogs & dogs with separation anxiety. If your dog struggles with either of these challenges please let me know beforehand so I can better meet their needs! I am mainly available on weekends but I can make accommodations for weekdays if you let me know in advance. Please message me for further information! Please message me for information regarding scheduling! I work full time but your fur baby will always be my number one priority while in my care! Lets chat about your dogs likes, dislikes, triggers, and motivators. This information can be essential in setting your dog up for success while staying with me!

About: Hi! 🤗 thanks for checking me out! I have a ton of experience with animals! I have experience in animal hospitals and doggy daycares alike 😃 Taking care of animals is where my heart is. I’ve always had multiple animals at a time. CPR and trauma experienced. I’m available all the time currently! Which means longer walks, play in the yard, or cuddles! I walk dogs full time so don’t be shy! I can’t watch anyone in my apartment, but I can come to your home or take them out and about! My attitude changes with each animal as I learn them. Most dogs I’m pretty playful with and have a lot of high energy play, some like to just sit next to a warm body on the couch and I can do that too.
About: I have a large, fenced in yard - perfect for lots of play. Pets have full range of the house and furniture unless crating is desired. I have two very playful dogs who love to chase and play tug. I work full time night shift Sunday-weds. My boyfriend is home the nights I am away. Dogs will rarely be left alone and if so only for 1-4 hours. My home has a fenced yard as well as an invisible fence due to my dogs being super expert escape artists. I am used to dogs being sneaky so it shouldn’t be an issue keeping yours safe and secure.
About: I have loved all pets since I was kid;) I normally help friends with their dogs, but I was trying to branch out;) I used to just have cats, but we added two bunnies to the mix and may adopt more. I work full time Monday-Friday at home, but I have a lot of flexibility, as long as I get my 8 hrs at work in;) I would prefer the clients home to visit. I have 3 cats and 2 bunnies at this time;) My place is relatively smaller and pets like to be in their common place.

She clearly loves dogs and cares about taking great care of them, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in great hands. I already have another booking with her and would recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter!”
“Very wonderful care! Our minds were put at ease after leaving Bailey ( this was our first time leaving Bailey with a sitter) we got many updates and pictures. We will definitely use this sitter again”
“He’s is my “Go-To”! She is so attentive to my baby and I love that she sends updates every day along with pictures throughout the day. I can tell by what she writes to me how much she loves having my baby there with her. Her entire family is so welcoming, they immediately make you feel like family. This is my second time with Jes and I plan many more visits with her.”
“Andrew did an excellent job caring for my Charlie-baby, he sent lots of pictures and always texted me right back when I got in touch with him to ask how she was doing. When I need pet care again I will definitely be looking for Andrew💞”
“This couple was fantastic! They sent regular photos and updates on our boys. They had took our 2 pitbull boxers for the weekend and handled them so well. My husband and I would absolutely hire them again for our pet needs!”
“Kristen was so great with our cat! She made sure Tunip had quiet places to stay and calm down after being stressed from the new environment. She was also very responsive and kept me updated throughout our trip. Overall, Kristen and her family were so kind and welcoming!”
“Rachel did an amazing job with our dog. She kept us updated with how Louie was doing and sent us lots of pictures, which was great to see how he was doing. I really believe Louie enjoyed himself with Rachel and her family.”
“Marty is always our choice when we need someone to watch our girl. Marty is great with communication and sends photos and updates. My dog loves Marty’s yard and all the attention she gets.”
“Extremely friendly and helpful. Andrea took great care of Zia for us over a weekend. We received tons of pictures of her having lots of fun. We'll be using Andrea in the future if we need our pup boarded again.”
“Brittany was super sweet to our doggy. Always communicating with us, sending us photos, and keeping us updated. We are so grateful that Luca could stay with her, happy and safe while we were a part of a wedding this weekend. We are so happy and highly recommend her to take care of your pups.”
“Stephanie did a wonderful job with our dogs while we were out of town. She sent us daily pictures and treated our dogs like her own. We can’t wait to use her to watch our dogs again.”
“Wow! They were amazing with my dog Mala 💓 They were also excellent with communication. A very warm and friendly family that has love for animals. Mala got lots of love and attention. I definitely will be looking to rebook in the near future.”
“Thank you so much to Dan and Clair! Your fenced in yard was perfect for Chili! We loved the pictures and communication - definitely would use again and highly recommend!”
““Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Bhairoo! We received so many photos and videos that it honestly felt like he was on his own little vacation 😄 Bhairoo is usually nervous around strangers, especially men, but he got comfortable so quickly and was happily following Jonathan around asking for pets and cuddles. Seeing our gentle giant so relaxed and happy meant everything to us. Highly recommend — caring, patient, communicative, and clearly amazing with dogs!””
