“Rex always enjoys his time Trevor, Bydette, and their kids. He loves being in a family home, getting to meet and play with a few other dogs, and get outside in their grassy yard.

I will definitely reach out to her again when I need someone to take care of Cappy in the future!”

“Lindsey was so on top of Nico's care! There were things that she brought to our attention before we could even follow up with her on what to expect. Such a huge help. She really knows her animals and what is needed to take care of them.”
“Mark was just fantastic looking after my boys: communicative, conscientious, and just a true animal lover. He really took the time to get my cats to warm up to him, and just had such a mellow demeanor. Highly recommend him (and will use his services again if you don’t snag him first!).”
“Anne has done an amazing job with my little ones, making sure they were fed, had clean water, had their daily portion of favorite snacks/veggies and daily portion of cuddles. We love her !”
“Gabby stayed with our 15 year old, newly diagnosed as diabetic, cat hunter for 4 days. She made sure he received all of his meds, including insulin injections, as instructed. Gabby sent photos and text updates throughout each day. Additionally, she took Hunter to the vet twice to receive his scheduled fluid treatments and made sure his litter box was cleaned daily. We arrived home to a clean house & a happy Hunter. Gabby is very personable, timely & a pleasure to know. I highly recommend Gabby as a responsible, professional & caring pet sitter.”
“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!”
“Paola was amazing with my cat, Jack! She sent great updates and adorable photos, which really put me at ease while I was away (especially since this was the first time I’ve left him for an extended period of time). She clearly cares a lot about animals and even brought in a package for me, which I really appreciated! I came home to a very happy cat and would definitely recommend ! :)”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter! From the very beginning, they were professional, reliable, and clearly passionate about caring for animals. They took the time to understand my cat’s routine, personality, and needs, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I received regular updates, photos, and little notes that reassured me my cat was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It was obvious my cat felt safe and relaxed, which says everything. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and genuinely caring pet sitter. I will definitely be booking with them again!”
“Despite Charlie never coming out from under my bed, Blake showed up daily 2x/day to feed her, try to play, & ensure she had a clean litter box. I think Charlie would have had a pretty fun time, had she stuck her nose out just a little. Lots of funny pics of Charlie's eye &nose! 😁 I'd call Blake again -- he's a responsible cat- sitter.”
“This is our second time having Nicole cat-sit and she took excellent care of our cat. He's old and has many needs, one of which is just lots and lots of love and attention, which she definitely delivered. Nicole went above and beyond for our little guy, she truly cares about the pets she sits for.”
About: As a dedicated cat mom to a shy British Shorthair name Eggy,I understand how sensitive, unique, and deeply observant cats can be. My own cat is quite timid, but l've mastered the art of keeping him happy: he loves watching birds out the window, enjoys specialized Youlube videos for cats, and plays endlessly with his favorite spring toys (my house is full of them!). I'm also try to be as clean as possible when comes to cat care— feed him three times a day and wash his bowl after every single meal to ensure maximum hygiene. Because I work full time from home, your cat will receive this exact same level of premium, attentive, and detailed care.
“I highly recommend Katrina. She took very good care care of our two cats, was very professional throughout the process, and sent updates so we knew how they were doing. We felt totally comfortable leaving them in her care and would absolutely book her again!”
“We truly appreciated the thoughtful nature of Mary Ann and the care with which she approached our scaredy cats. She arrived on time, took care of the cats and kept us updated along the way. She took the initiative to spent some quiet time with them allowing the cats to trust her and get pets while we were away. She has a very calming personality, she is respectful of cats and understands that pet parents can be anxious leaving their babies home alone. She sent us multiple pictures at each visits and appropriately provided updates. This allowed us to be at ease knowing our cats were well cared for by Mary Ann. I highly appreciate Mary Ann and would love to work with her in the future.”
“Jordyn did a great job today with Dash. She was on time and immediately started playing with our puppy. Dash really took to her which put us at ease. We felt he was in good hands. Great job!”

“Eunice was so great with Mocha. He’s a senior so he needs a little more care and attention and Eunice had a great handle on it. He looked like he had such a great time!”
“Isabella is absolutely amazing. We have worked with several dog sitters and Isabella is easily the best. She cared for Bambi, played with him and patiently trained him. She sent us a lot of amazing photos and videos. What a wonderful lady! My wife and I are so happy and lucky to find Isabella! Highly recommended!”
About: I am missing our dog Batman and while I am not ready for a dog of my own yet I would love to take care of yours! I work full time from home which allows me the flexibility to care for your dog during the day. We will take walks together and play outside! I have fenced in backyard your dog can run and play in and will take them for at least 3 walks per day. Making sure your loved one is comfortable is my main goal!
“Vanessa was super helpful. Cooper is a very energetic puppy.He always gets excited when meeting new people or being in a new environment, and apparently he was excited and didn't nap the entire morning, but Vanessa was very patient in taking care of him and kept me informed throughout the day by sending me the updates and photos. Cooper looked happy when he was with Vanessa and when I picked him up. I'll definitely go back to Vanessa for help in the future.”
“Briaan took good care of our little girl. The meet and greet was smooth. Our dog was comfortable with Briaan. She kept us informed during the sitting. She responded fast to the message. Will come back.”
“A wonderful experience! Communication was excellent (including photos and videos). Doug has created a calm, well thought out space that can accommodate multiple dogs - including ways to give dogs their own space if needed. Thank you!”
About: I've had large and small dogs most of my life and understand what is needed to ensure your fur babies are healthy and happy! I am flexible and dependable to help you enjoy your time away! I sit for one dog or one family at a time. I work from home and can maintain your dog's daily routine/schedule. I love to walk everyday and your fur baby is welcomed to join me! I have a large fenced back yard and a nice deck for laying in the sun! Your fur baby is supervised whenever outside in the yard/deck. Currently, I do not have my own fur baby but my house and yard are doggie ready/friendly!
About: I’m a mom of 2. One in college and the other a college graduate living on their own. I had dogs growing up. We had a dog as the kids grew up with and lost him in 2019. I pet sit for family members whenever I can. I work from home and have a flexible schedule so hopefully I can meet your needs. I work from home and my hours for work are flexible. I can adjust my schedule as needed. This will hopefully meet your needs and your pet. I am always home and have a beautiful lake to walk your four legged friend around while they are here. I go at your pets pace so if they like to sniff around that’s fine.
“I left my 3 y/o high energy slightly difficult dog (75lb Shepard and pit mix) with Jonathan for daycare and they did great together! Jonathan managed her and other dogs he was caring for safely and had no concerns. He is able to provide the type of high level of exercise she needs and was comfortable with her quirks and able to accommodate them with ease. I feel comfortable leaving him with her for her week long boarding session next month. Thanks Jonathan!”
“Blue’s first day here was a success! Louis has a great setup - large fenced in yard w lots of places to explore - tucked in at the end of a quiet street. Blue enjoyed lots of outside time & attention. On our earlier ‘meet & greet’ Louis welcomed Blue warmly & gave Blue time to check things out before introducing him to his dog, Barney. I got the sense that Louis is a real dog lover & would trust him with Blue again. Highly recommended!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Anna! Duke had an amazing time at her place and absolutely loved spending the day with their dog Theo. Anna is incredibly caring and attentive to the dogs in her care. She was very mindful of Duke’s needs and made sure he was comfortable throughout the day. We especially appreciated the frequent updates, pictures, and videos — it was so reassuring to see how happy and relaxed Duke was. We would absolutely trust Anna with Duke again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and loving sitter.”
“A day for Pip with Amanda and Max is always a great day. They keep an impeccably clean and dog friendly house. And the gorgeous upscale neighborhood has quiet safe streets, so I know Pip is safe on his walks.”
“Chloe had an absolute blast — chasing her pup pals like a wannabe track star and relaxing in the shade like the little lady she is. Thanks for taking such great care of her! Can’t wait for her next adventure with you!”
“My girls had so much fun that when we started driving away, she began winning! Tracy and Steven were very welcoming and treated her like family. They sent pictures all day and kept in touch effectively. I'm definitely grateful to them. I will book again, and you should too! Thank you again Tracy & Steven. Now my girl will sleep the night away!”
About: Hi! I’m Marina, a dancewear designer and a proud mom to a lovable 6-year-old dog. My love for animals brings me so much happiness, and I truly enjoy their company! I am mainly working in dance industry but do have part time to spend with dogs since I have my own and i have a lot of friends that have pets I just love to cuddle with them, walk them and play. I will prioritize the unique needs of each animal, recognising that every pet is special and deserves tailored care. I strive to create a comforting and personalized experience, ensuring that every pet feels valued and well- cared for.
“We found Jessica P. when we were in town visiting family and needed to board our pup for the day. Jessica was great — very communicative and easy to work with! She sent plenty of pics to show us that our dog was relaxed and engaged and having a good visit. We would not hesitate to leave our pup with Jessica again for daycare.”
“We recently used Manuel’s dog sitting services for our Frenchie, Vinny, and we couldn’t be happier. Knowing Vinny was in Manuel’s capable care gave us such peace of mind to focus on our day. When we returned, Vinny was happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after. I’m so thankful for Manuel’s help and highly recommend him to anyone in need of a reliable, caring dog sitter!”

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life, whether it was taking care of my friends pets while they were away, or my own, I have always loved animals, specially dogs. I currently have three dogs of my own (ages 13, 6, and 1), which has given me experience caring for dogs at every stage of life, from being patient and gentle with seniors to keeping the younger pups active and happy. I’m excited to start offering my care to other families and would love the opportunity to treat your pets like my own. I enjoy going on walks, have experience walking multiple dogs, following feeding routines, and making sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel happy and loved while they’re in my care. I currently have a part-time job that is very flexible, which allows me to easily work pet care into my daily routine. I enjoy walking every day, whether I have a furry companion with me or not, so adding walks and visits into my schedule is something I truly look forward to. I also have my own reliable transportation, making it easy for me to get to and from clients’ homes. My work hours are short, and I have multiple days where I am not scheduled, giving me plenty of availability and flexibility to provide dependable care when your pup needs it. I provide care in your pet’s home so they can stay comfortable and relaxed in their own familiar environment. I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so I make sure to follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, walks, playtime, and daily habits. During visits, I would focus on giving pets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while making sure they feel safe and cared for. I enjoy going on walks, spending time playing, and giving pets the love and patience they deserve while their owners are away. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect that I would want for my own dogs.
“Jillian was fantastic with my dog who doesn't always warm to strangers. She's be so happy to see her every day. Jillian was very punctual and communicative. She sent detailed updates every day. I highly recommend her!”
“Anne was great with my dog when we needed a dog walker last minute! She was responsive, friendly, and great at dealing with our little energetic pup. I enjoyed the cute pictures she sent each day as well! Would definitely trust her for future walks.”
About: I have a dog and cat of my own and raised them since puppyhood/kittenhood. I believe all furbabies deserve the most loving care and attention possible. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends for boarding, visits, and walks. Feel free to reach out and I will work with your unique schedule. If your fur-baby is more shy or independent, I have extra rooms where they can rest comfortably and confidently. If your fur-baby is more social, I have two pets that can keep them company. Safe community with private walking paths and not much traffic for peaceful dog walks. Clean and well-maintained household.
“Alena was fantastic. Our dog loved her at first sight. She was punctual and helpful. Alena also kept us totally informed and updated about Maya’s walks. It is a pleasure to know that we have someone to count on when we’re away.🐾🐾🐾”
“Grace was great with our dog and made us feel comfortable during multiple overnight sits and walks! She kept us continually updated and took excellent care of him. We’re glad to have found someone our dog really connects with 😊 We’d happily book with Grace again and highly recommend her!”
About: As a pet owner for more than 35 years, I understand that pets are family. I have experience caring for large-breed dogs as well as dogs that require medication and special medical attention. My favorite pastime is dog walking, and I genuinely enjoy spending time outdoors with dogs of all ages and energy levels. I am dependable, patient, and committed to providing safe, loving care so pet owners can feel confident their furry family members are in good hands. I have been a Special Education Teacher for the past 26 years and am currently enjoying my summer break from school. With a flexible summer schedule, I am available for dog walking and pet care throughout the week. Dog walking has always been one of my favorite pastimes, and I’m excited to spend my free time doing something I genuinely enjoy. Whether your dog needs a daily walk, exercise, companionship, or extra attention while you’re away, I am reliable, responsible, and ready to help. While I currently share my home with one beloved cat, I have been a dog owner for most of my adult life. After losing my three dogs, I decided not to get another dog right away, but I still deeply miss the companionship and joy that dogs bring to everyday life. I have always been the kind of dog mom who made my dogs a priority. When I had dogs, I walked them before work every morning, came home during my lunch break to take them out again since I worked less than a mile from home, and then enjoyed another walk with them in the evening. My yard is fully fenced, providing a safe space for play and exercise, but I have always believed that dogs need more than just a backyard—they need walks, attention, and quality time with their people. Caring for dogs has never felt like a chore to me; it’s something I truly enjoy. Becoming a Rover walker gives me the opportunity to spend time with dogs again while helping other pet owners ensure their furry family members receive the love, exercise, and attention they deserve. 🐾
About: I have had two cats all my life which I have cared for, fed and changed litter for. I also have experience with walking and caring for dogs. I am free anytime from here up until the 16th of August which is when I will be going back to college, but I will be free when winter break comes around. My cats are house cats so it is very easy for me to keep them safe. I shoo them away from anything dangerous or anything they shouldn’t be messing with quickly. As for dogs, I always keep an eye on them and have a tight grip on their leash when walking them so they don’t run off.
About: My name is Emma R. and I am currently a senior at Fairleigh Dickinson University - Florham. I have been housitting and pet sitting since I was in middle school and would love to help you out! I have worked with animals of all size, age, and even some with medical conditions. I am experienced at giving medication and work well wih animals, as I grew up with a cat and dogs. I am able to care for multiple pets at once, and have a car on campus so I am able to take any job. I am a college student with avalability sporadically so please reach out about specific days and times that you would need care. I am happy to take pets on walks or just sit with them and give them attention in addition to feeding. If staying the night, I am happy to have your pet sleep with me or crate them, whatever they will be the most comfortable with.
About: As a speech therapist for 10 months out of the year, I primarily work with children and enjoy spending summers outdoors with my own dog, Cooper. I have 10 years of experience pet sitting and dog walking, through Rover as well as for friends and neighbors. I am comfortable maintaining your dog’s training and walking routines to ensure safe, fun walks together! (Cooper will stay at home, he is a whole lot of 100 lbs and receives his own walks. He does not resource guard and has never been a bite risk). I’m looking to dog walk and/or dog sit in the summer, when I am off from my public school job. This would be during the months of July and August, but depending on the hour I can be available before July (after 4:30 pm). During the summer I have a very flexible schedule. I have a fenced in yard and a split level home. I can keep our dogs separate or introduce them depending on your preference and whether they can acclimate (Cooper is a big boy but docile and friendly).
“I’m so happy Maris responded to my request. Milo couldn’t have asked for someone better walker. Maris came on time and followed the instructions I left. She provided pictures of Milo along their walk. Before leaving she gave Milo his snack and made sure he had water and food. If you’re looking for someone that will show love to your pet, she definitely will. Maris will be Milo’s go too for future walks.”

It is always obvious that our puppy is well cared for and spoiled in the best way when in his care. Manny sends pictures and is great about providing regular updates while sitting.”
“Louis was attentive and cared for my dog, even when I needed him last-minute. He was helpful in giving him medication and keeping me informed of his stay, whether through messaging me or through the pictures or videos he would share. I would absolutely recommend him, without reservation.”
“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 😊”
“We are incredibly thankful to Rajan for boarding our dog, Loki, for a little over two weeks. Loki was so well cared for and looked genuinely happy throughout her stay. She loved getting to play with other pups, which made the experience even better for her. Rajan is clearly an animal lover and treated Loki as if she were his own. We also really appreciated the regular updates, photos, and videos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We’re very grateful for the care and attention Rajan provided and would highly recommend him.”
“Andrew took great care of our senior Pitty Sommy, he immediately struck us as very friendly and felt like extended family throughout the whole process. His home is beautiful with a gated yard for plenty of space and grass for our Sommy. Andrew made sure to update us with photos throughout the stay, and made sure Sommy was well taken cared for. We will definitely book with Andrew again, without hesitation.”
“Django loves being cared for by Tracy and Steve. He is excited and happy when we arrive and he doesn’t look back, letting me know he feels safe and secure, which is really important for a sensitive young dog with a rough rescue in his past. While I hate being away from him, I am confident he is receiving excellent care and enjoying his canine companions, the pictures they send show him having a blast! Highly recommended for both day care and boarding!”
