“Lisa is amazing! She did a great job keeping us updated with pics & videos. Our dog has never looked this happy when we’ve gone away. She kept her active with walks & playtime with her pup. Highly recommend!”

“Karina is amazing as a pet sitter. She took beautiful care of Honey and embraced him as her own. She provided everyday updates , took him for walks and really made Honey comfortable. Also, she ensured Honey came to us smelling good and clean. She gifted him few treats as well. I highly recommend Karina for her warmth , kindness and pet care.”

“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.”

“Linus stayed with Sue and her family for 12 days over the holidays & we couldn't have been happier with her care. She texted regularly and sent photos and it was clear that Linus was getting all the love and attention he would get from us. We're thrilled with Sue & will definitely use her again.”

“Samantha was incredible with our dog. Samantha agreed to care for our dog at the last minute, which we are incredibly grateful for. Poor pup was diagnosed with a UTI so Samantha administered medications to her and made sure she got out often to pee. Fantastic attention to our dog and great communication, highly recommend Samantha’s services!!”

“Paul was great looking after Nellie over thanksgiving! Sent a bunch of photos throughout the week of her with his family and gave updates throughout her stay. Nellie can be a bit shy initially and Paul gave her the time and patience to come out of her shell and fell more comfortable with his family. Will definetly use Paul again!”

“Gail did a great job with Raven. We usually are worried about whether Raven will adjust to a new sitter, but Gail quickly sent us pictures and a note letting us know how quickly she bonded with Raven and how calm she had become.”

“During the time my Rocky spent with Vivian, she stayed in communication with me on a regular basis, and showed Rocky the same attention and affection that he would have received at home. Vivian is trustworthy, and my Rocky had a great stay with her. I highly recommend her dog sitting service.”

“Michele is very responsive and also excellent with keeping us updated on how our 2 furry ones were doing. So glad we found her and our furry ones grew fond of her. We definitely recommend her to others and we will always contact her for our future stays.”

“It was our dog's first night away from us and we feel so fortunate to have found Shaun S. Shaun and his family treated Betty with such love and took so much time to understand our dog, Betty's, routine and personality prior to her visit. It was so nice to receive so many pictures and even videos during her stay... he kept us posted the whole time. When I arrived to pick her up, Betty's tail was wagging as she "introduced" me to Shaun - along with his son and wife. What a lovely family and the perfect home to leave Betty. We already booked 2 more stays!”


“Mylene was wonderful with our puppy! She sent frequent updates and adorable pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing our little guy was in great hands. We felt completely comfortable and reassured throughout the entire experience. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter, and we’ll definitely be using her again!”

“Hannah is amazing! She was incredibly kind, considerate, and attentive to both of my cats. She took the time to learn their individual personalities and favorite things—playing with my very active cat and giving plenty of love and brushing to my couch potato. She even administered medication to the cat who needed it, which gave me such peace of mind. Throughout our time away, Hannah sent reassuring updates along with the cutest photos and videos. It was so comforting to see that both cats were happy and well cared for—and they looked forward to her visits and greeted her at the door. We’re so happy we found Hannah on Rover. She went above and beyond, and we would absolutely love to have her care for our cats again the next time we go away. I highly recommend her! ❤️🐾”


“Literally could not ask for a better rover!!! James checked in on Finley last minute for us and was fantastic. He was incredibly attentive and great with communication. He made sure to keep me updated and let me know exactly how Finley was doing while I was away. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone to do drop-ins!!!”

“Nicole has been our go-to cat sitter for years. She's fantastic. She's reliable and clearly loves cats. Fred isn't isn't and he always comes out for her. Strongly recommend.”

She always replied quickly, answered all my questions, and sent plenty of sweet photos. So kind and thoughtful. I felt completely at ease the whole time. ❤️ I’ll book her again!”


“Elizabeth and her husband were excellant cat sitters! Lulu is a shy and anxious cat with some bathroom quirks but they were able to handle it with no issues and Lulu even came out to play once or twice! I am really grateful for their professional care of my cat. ☺️ thank you again!”

“Isaac was great and communicated well! We had a last minute outing to see some family and didn’t want to leave Jolie for 8 hours. Isaac kept her great company and sent lots of pictures so we knew she was happy while we were out!”


About: I’m a reliable and caring college student who genuinely enjoys being around animals. I’ve had my two cats for the past two years, so I’m used to feeding them, cleaning litter boxes, playing with them, and making sure they’re happy and comfortable every day. I’ve also helped friends care for their dogs by feeding them, taking them on walks, playing with them, and keeping them company while they were away. Outside of pet care, I’ve worked as a private caregiver and in customer service, which has taught me how to be responsible, patient, and dependable. I know how important it is to trust someone with a loved one, whether it’s a person or a pet, and I’ll always treat your pets with the same care and attention I’d want for my own.

About: I’ve been caring for cats of all personalities since I was young, including shy, independent, playful, mischievous, and senior cats. I understand that every cat is different — some need space and quiet, while others want attention and play — and I adjust my approach to what makes them feel most comfortable. I’m experienced with feeding routines, litter care, and providing a calm, consistent presence so your cat feels safe and stress-free while you’re away. I’m also comfortable following specific feeding instructions and routines, including portion control or special care needs.

“Morgan is a very responsible person who goes out of her way to do the little things to take care of our pets and our home also.

She is terrific!!!”

About: Over the past 5+ years, I’ve cared for the pets of friends and family, not as a business, but as a way to support them during vacations, work trips, or emergencies. It’s something I’ve always done out of love and a genuine desire to help. My wife also grew up having different pets, including cats, dogs, and other small animals. Together, we share a strong bond with animals and a commitment to provide them with comfort, safety, and affection. I work 100% from home, which allows me to provide consistent attention and care to the pets I look after. Your dog will enjoy plenty of companionship, playtime, and bathroom breaks throughout the day. They’ll never feel alone or ignored. We live in a comfortable, pet-friendly townhouse where your pet will be treated like family. Pets are welcome on the furniture and free to roam throughout the house. There are no restrictions on movement inside, so they can relax and settle in wherever they feel most comfortable. While we don’t have a backyard, we make sure dogs get regular outdoor time with safe, on-leash walks around our quiet, secure complex and the surrounding neighborhood. We never allow pets off-leash while outside, under any circumstances, to ensure their safety at all times.

“Was in a pickle and needed pet care for my springer spaniel Beau. So happy I connected with Jacki. She has provided such a great service watching my buddy for me while I was away at work. Updates throughout the day. Good communication very pleased. Beau has alot of fun while staying with Jacki during the day ! We will definitely be back to visit Jacki”

“Debbie sent pictures and all I saw were 2 small dogs who did not miss their human Mom. There was play time (smiles and action), down time (cuddling and relaxing). I was always under the impression they sat in a corner and missed me with all their tiny hearts, but no - Debbie had them going the whole time! One fell asleep on the drive home due to the days action, the other needed every minute of tthe days action! Her property is amazing! Gorgeous setting only maybe two or three miles from downtown Bernardsville. So much safe space to run and play in. Exploring is at the top of Louie's requirements and he had a whole acre of fenced in yard to get all his Terrier on! Thanks so much Debbie! WE WILL BE BACK!!!!”

I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, especially high-energy pets who need extra exercise and engagement. I’m also comfortable maintaining routines and giving pets the patience and consistency they need to feel comfortable and cared for. I provide a calm, safe, and attentive environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. Growing up on a farm taught me how to read animal behavior, handle different temperaments, and stay patient in new situations. I’m comfortable caring for energetic pets, seniors, and animals with special needs. I always follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and owner preferences closely. In a client’s home, I prioritize cleanliness, supervision, safety, and making sure each pet feels loved and stress-free.

“Erin is super professional, kind, responsive, and went out of her way to accommodate a walk request. She asked really important questions and is a fellow dog owner herself. My dog absolutely loved her and I trust her implicitly. I highly recommend Erin for all your pet care needs!”

“Jodi was extremely responsive and communicative. She went the extra mile and sent a ton of photographs, checked on medical issues and whether there was food/water in her bowl. Highly recommend and will ask her to walk Reigh again!”

“Linus stayed with Sue and her family for 12 days over the holidays & we couldn't have been happier with her care. She texted regularly and sent photos and it was clear that Linus was getting all the love and attention he would get from us. We're thrilled with Sue & will definitely use her again.”

“Paul was great looking after Nellie over thanksgiving! Sent a bunch of photos throughout the week of her with his family and gave updates throughout her stay. Nellie can be a bit shy initially and Paul gave her the time and patience to come out of her shell and fell more comfortable with his family. Will definetly use Paul again!”

“Michele is very responsive and also excellent with keeping us updated on how our 2 furry ones were doing. So glad we found her and our furry ones grew fond of her. We definitely recommend her to others and we will always contact her for our future stays.”

“It was our dog's first night away from us and we feel so fortunate to have found Shaun S. Shaun and his family treated Betty with such love and took so much time to understand our dog, Betty's, routine and personality prior to her visit. It was so nice to receive so many pictures and even videos during her stay... he kept us posted the whole time. When I arrived to pick her up, Betty's tail was wagging as she "introduced" me to Shaun - along with his son and wife. What a lovely family and the perfect home to leave Betty. We already booked 2 more stays!”

“Kaitlin and her family took fantastic care of Poppy during her stay. She sent numerous photos and videos showing how happy Poppy was in their home. Could not have asked for a better experience.!”


“Todd is highly responsible and provided excellent care for my dog, offering regular updates and pictures, and demonstrating prompt responsiveness in communication. Definitely, I recommend him to other pet owners.”

About: We are a loving and lively household where we will snuggle and play fetch with your pup, take them to the dog park, and keep them happy and occupied. My husband and I have a very active goldendoodle, Bell, who is 9 years old. Neither of us remember a time when there wasn't a dog in the house growing up! We know that we are taking on no small task when we agree to be responsible for your furry friend. We will follow your instructions to a T and we realize that every doggo is their own unique individual with their own unique needs. We are pros when it comes to high-energy dogs with a mind of their own! I am a full-time parent of three and we have a dog of our own whom we are home with all day. Staying active with our doodle is an integral part of our daily routine and we would love to have even more walks, games of fetch, and tricks + treats to look forward to! We LOVE to love on your pet! In our home you can expect a minimum of two 20-minute walks a day, plus more upon request and some leash time in our back yard if they like to hang out and observe the world. We are big proponents of fetch and chase.
“Andres was absolutely fantastic with our dog, Lance! From the moment we dropped him off, he made Lance feel right at home in a comfortable, welcoming environment. It was clear Lance got plenty of attention and genuine care, and Andres kept us completely at ease while we were away. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog sitter!”


“Diana is the best & always my go-to sitter! She loved my dog Bruce like he is her own :) the extra special care she gives is much appreciated, will definitely continue to book with Diana”


“Erinn was great! She was very quick to respond to all my messages and updated me every day with how things were going with Mochi. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”

“Pia’s stay with Charles was great. He is an awesome person who truly loves the pets he cares for. He shared pictures time to time keeping us informed of Pia’s well being. I am grateful to have met Charles and highly recommend him. We are definitely returning next time Pia needs a break from us 😊”

“Sriram and Rekha were absolutely wonderful! From the moment we had our meet and greet, I knew my sweet lab Peanut would be in in exceptional hands. Their property is truly beautiful! It's so expansive, spacious and very safe, it's like a luxury dog hotel! They are such kind people and really made Peanut feel so welcome and right at home. Over the July 4th weekend, they went above and beyond by sending me adorable photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear Peanut was so happy, comfortable, and receiving lots of love and individual attention. This was without a doubt the best boarding experience I've ever had. I couldn't recommend Sriram and Rekha highly enough and I will absolutely be booking with them again, Peanut didn't want to leave! Thanks guys once again for taking such incredible care of my fur baby Peanut!”

About: I may not have a professional certification in animal behavior, but what I do have is a deep love for dogs, years of experience caring for my own dog, and a commitment to keeping your pet safe, happy, and loved. I pride myself on being patient, attentive, and dependable. I can implement strict feeding schedules and medications, navigate long walks/hikes, or simply recognize when a dog just needs some quiet companionship. I will treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. You can count on me for regular photo/video updates and the peace of mind that your pet is being treated like family. I am an early riser and have the ability to be very flexible. I had dedicated the past 14 years of my life to caring for my late rescue, and am capable to continue doing so for many more. I live in a two-story, single bedroom condo within an HOA community. I do not have a fenced yard, but I will be able to keep your dog active with many walks and interactions with other dogs. My home is spacious and orderly. I am clean and respectful of other's spaces; I treat it as my own. I am well educated and willing to lend a hand when others are in need of help.

About: I have had cats since I was a kid, walked my friends’ dogs in the neighborhood and just love being outside in their company walking and playing. I am currently working from home and have plenty of time during the day to walk your pet friend. I love to be outside in any weather and will take nice long walks and play. My family member has developed bad allergies so I cannot have my own pets. I love dogs and cats a lot and will enjoy their company.
