“Kirk immediately put me at ease about leaving my somewhat spoiled, always supervised , many food/ environmental allergies 9yo male pekinese. It’s necessary to watch he only gets the food and treats provided and allergy med twice a day. I feel that’s a tall order, but Kirk and Anita were wonderful. Sent update pictures so I knew he was fine and they treated like their own family pet. Can’t thank them enough. And recommend using them 100%. Kirk had me come over once to meet him so he could show me the layout ,explain what to expect ,and meet his own dogs To see how your dog reacts.”
About: I've spent my whole life around animals and it shows. Whether I'm boarding your pup, caring for your cat, or out on a walk, I bring patience, attention, and genuine care to every situation. I've picked up a lot along the way (including some time as a vet tech assistant), but mostly I just love animals and treat every one like they're my own💛 My weekday routine includes a midday home visit during lunch, with full availability in the evenings and on weekends. I believe in being transparent with pet parents. Your dog will be comfortable, cared for, and never left without a break for too long. 🐶Dogs who board with me are in a real home with a fenced backyard, not a kennel. They get space, routine, and plenty of love. I keep things structured so they feel secure, and I'm always attentive to how a new dog is settling in. 🐱For cats, I believe the best care happens on their turf.I come to you, keep their routine intact, clean their litter, handle feeding, and make sure they get some company before heading meowt.

“Rebecca and Ozzie are amazing. They have taken our chihuahua Lola several times and treat her like she is their own. I tell them to stop spoiling her lol! I never worry about Lola when she is there and I get daily pictures and videos. They take the stress out of leaving your pet -whether it’s a day or a week! Thank you again for caring for Lola the way that you always do!”

“Rachael is our “go to” cat sitter when we go away. I am very thankful to have her take care of our kitties when we leave. They really like her and we like having her take care of them. The kitties also like her. That’s not easy to do. We have a very skiddish kitty that goes to see her when she comes to take of them.”

“Sharon's service is outstanding. This was the 1st time someone outside of the family has taken care of my fur grand babies and they were happy. She sent videos and pictures of them, washed their beds, gave us report cards and they left with new collars and snacks. My daughter and I am so pleased with her services. I will truly use her again when I travel. What a relief to know they will be in great hands.”
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I’ve had extremely large pets and the daintiest little animals. I am always the person at parties petting whatever animal I can get my hands on. Friends and family have relied on me to take care of their pets for a long time and I am always happy to do so. Feeding, walking, play time, and enrichment are all things I love to do and do regularly with my dog. My schedule is pretty open except for the occasional doctors appointment and caring for my dad. I tend to be able to work around any conflicts to help better serve others. I treat all pets as if they’re my own. Safe walks, making sure the ground isn’t too hot, hydration, and some kind of stimulation makes a happy pup. If it is too hot for walking, and depending on what you’re comfortable with, either a walk indoors at a dog friendly store or enrichment in the home, or just playtime on grass can be offered.
“What a delight Sterlin is! Joey and Benny enjoyed her playful nature and were well taken care of. I feel very blessed to have had the opportunity to invite Sterlin into our home. She kept me updated with notes and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. Thank you Sterlin!”
About: For the first 13 years of my life I had cats. Once they passed away my parents decided they did not want to own cats however I wish they did. My boyfriend has 2 cats that I absolutely adore. I have helped take care of his cats on multiple occasions.

“Kenneth was great with Beau! I had to book last minute due to a sudden change in my schedule for 4 days of doggy day care. Kenneth was more than accommodating and is exceptional with communication.

“Sol was so amazing with my dog. I cannot thank her enough for going above and beyond taking care of my dog, Teddy. She kept me updated throughout his entire stay and sent me adorable pictures and videos of him. I really appreciate her keeping me informed. My dog, Teddy, is usually nervous at first, but Sol took the time to make sure Teddy was comfortable with her before I left him with her. She responds very quickly to all messages and requests. I am beyond grateful that I found her on this site. I am overly cautious about who is around my dog, and if they are able to take care of him, Sol proved without a doubt that she is to be trusted with my fur baby. I will be exclusively using her to watch Teddy going forward if she is available. Thank you so much, Sol, and Teddy looks forward to seeing you again!”

About: Hello my name is Angela and I'm a huge animal enthusiast. I live not to far from most shore towns where people visit including Ocean City, Sea Isle, Avalon, and Stone Harbor. I own a home on a medium sized lot,so your dog has somewhere to safely play. The backyard is fenced off while the front is not. I also live in a relatively small neighborhood (2x3) blocks that's perfect for going on walks with the pups! I will take really good care of your family member as I would my own. I also don't mind sending frequent check ins and I'm guilty of taking to many pictures because they are just so dang cute! Please feel free to contact me anytime, looking forward to hearing from you! I own my own pet transportation company called Angie's Puppy Shuttle. My husband and I have owned dogs out entire life and since we don't have children, our dogs are a willing substitute, we will both be caring for your loved one while they stay with us. They will be welcome to the middle of the bed every night 🤣 Sometimes I am away, traveling cross country to introduce a family to their new puppy. The rest of that time I enjoy doing crafts, playing with the dogs outside and inside, playing pool and making a new snuggle buddy. I have dealt with the escape artist routine and don't want to pose that risk to your pet. We have a backyard with a fence and will remain on a leash no matter what. I just don't feel comfortable trusting them without it. I have a "TWO DOOR POLICY", which just means that if any exterior doors are opened, your pet will either be leashed to go outside before or will be placed in a bedroom behind another door before the exterior door can be opened. Absolutely no chance for an escape artist!

About: Hello ! My name is Amanda and I have been around dogs my entire life. I’ve recently moved into a new house and am looking to get back into helping you and your pets !

I have taken on a range of responsibilities for many pets including feeding, walking, bathing, and giving medicine. I will give your pet the love and care it deserves so you can have peace of mind. I am currently working in wildlife conservation and am available early mornings and evenings. I have full availability Mondays and Tuesdays. I am very flexible and am often available on short notice. I have had many pets of my own and am very comfortable caring for a range of animals. I have experience house sitting and dog walking.

“Kelley took great care of our pup while we were away. She reached out frequently with updates and was quick to respond to our interactions as well. It was nice to know he was safe and well cared for.”
“Rebecca and Ozzie are amazing. They have taken our chihuahua Lola several times and treat her like she is their own. I tell them to stop spoiling her lol! I never worry about Lola when she is there and I get daily pictures and videos. They take the stress out of leaving your pet -whether it’s a day or a week! Thank you again for caring for Lola the way that you always do!”
“Diana was fantastic! We booked it last minute and ended up needing to extend our dogs stay a few more days. She was super accommodating and responsive! And even sent us pictures of our pup! So grateful and highly recommend!”
“Katie, John and their family were wonderful. Macie was so well taken care of we were afraid she wouldn’t want to come home!! They will be our go to Rover family from now on.”
“As always, Tim and Lisa are amazing with your furry child. Bailey always enjoys her stays and we highly recommend bring your furry child to them. Their family will treat them as their own.”
“Kristen is a dog/puppy expert. She embraced Bono right away and made him part of her human and dog family. He had so much fun there. She sent me daily updates and let me know he was doing great. It was our first time leaving him so we were nervous, but he was well cared for and had a great time. Thanks for loving him all weekend!”
“Angela responded to my questions promptly, and made me feel at ease leaving my dog for the first time with a Rover caregiver. She texted with updates and photos. Boomer was in great hands, and I’ll definitely use her again!”
“Danielle did an excellent job with my two fur babies. She took care of them as if they were her own. They are very nervous babies but Danielle seems to have the secret on how to make them less anxious and to become comfortable in her home. Infact I was told my Junie did not want to leave! She fed them like we discussed and took ample amount of photos and videos. My husband and I usually don't take vacations that often but we really enjoyed ourselves knowing they were in good hands. I would like to thank Danielle and her family again for a job well done and I would recommend her anytime.”
“Lisa took wonderful care of my Honey. She kept me updated with texts & pictures. She took Honey on lots of walks, and even did an art project with Honey which she gave to me. I was very nervous having never left my Honey with anyone except my daughter. Lisa exceeded my expectations and I will be using her again and again! I am thrilled to have found Lisa! And I highly recommend Lisa!”
“Tyler was an amazing post. His availability was remarkable. We contacted him on the same day, actually within an hour of needing dog sitting, and he accepted our inquiry. His dogs are loves and our pups enjoyed the exceptional family atmosphere. I highly recommend Tyler’s care. He treated our dogs just like they were at home.”
“McKenna and Tyler were so awesome with our dog Rhys. Will definitely be using them again. Sent us awesome pictures and kept us up to date with everything. Made drop off and pick up super easy. Look forward to using them again!!!!”
“This was our pup, Isla’s, first time boarding and Jared took excellent care of her. When we met Jared at our meet and greet, we could immediately tell that he loves dogs and would be a responsible and caring sitter. The daily photos he sent showed she felt right at home and was having such a good time that we were afraid she would not want to come home back home. We will definitely book with Jared again and know that Isla will happily run in in the door and make herself at home! Thanks Jared and family for making Isla’s first boarding experience such a positive one!”
“Kateri was absolutely fantastic for our dog penny! She took wonderful care of her, and sent daily photos and videos, which i really appreciated, because penny is my baby and best friend and love of my life, lol. Penny was sad to leave!!”
“Patricia was awesome! She kept me updated on my Chloe throughout the day. Chloe seemed happy and well entertained with Patricia. Thank you for taking such good care of Chloe for the weekend 💕”
“Kate was absolutely amazing with our pup, Swift! After having our normal boarding facility cancel on us due to overbooking before a vacation, I quickly visited rover to see if I could find a suitable match for Swift. Kate responded in about 10 minutes and accepted the booking, a true life saver! Swift loved his time at Kate’s beautiful home. He has been pooped since you pickup and I know he truly got the attention and exercise that he needs. Kate sent tons of pictures which really eased my mind while I was on vacation. Thank you again Kate! We will be back.”
“Andrew is, without a doubt, the best we've ever used on Rover. We have a sometimes high-energy rescue dog, and Andrew was amazing with him. He was incredibly patient and kind, and he made us feel completely at ease start to pick up. He sent us frequent photo and video updates, showing our dog happy and relaxed, and we could tell he was being treated like family. We highly recommend Andrew and will definitely be rebooking with him for all our future needs!”
