“We travel frequently for long trips and our usual sitter was not available this time and so we chose to use Rover and found Ankita and her beautiful family . From the time of meet and Greet I knew that I couldn’t have found a better dog loving home for my coco . The love care and affection they showered on coco was evident from the multiple daily updates we received in form of videos and messages . Coco was the happiest puppy ever and I bet she is going to miss them so much - especially their Dog Panther who is such a sweet heart and their little son who became coco’s best friend and companion to play all day :) Coco has found a new second home and we will surely be using them again at our next time away”
“We had such a great experience with Juan. This was our first time leaving Teddy with them and Juan made us feel very comfortable.

“Lisbeth went above and beyond last week. When we noticed Monty’s timer feeder hadn’t opened on our ring camera, we were able to get in touch with Lisbeth quickly who stopped by the house to feed Monty and determine the issue (low batteries), then returned later that day for her usual visit. Thank you Lisbeth for caring for our furball while we were away!”

Her communication kept me connected and reassured. I highly recommend Megan to anyone looking for a trustworthy caregiver for their pets, and I will absolutely book her again in the future!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Sam. He took excellent care of my two cats for nine days. Sam provided detailed notes and photos of my cats after every visit (which was twice daily). Whenever I had a question he responded promptly. I extended the length of my vacation and Sam accommodated the change without hesitation. If you’re looking for a pet sitter, look no further than Sam. He is outstanding.”

She sent pictures of him and sent me updates all along the way.He was comfortable with her and looked great while I was away. I would recommend her 100%!”
“Raquel took great care of our boys while we were away and was very responsive and prompt. We will definitely request her again for future trips and would recommend her services to others!”
“Joseph was absolutely fantastic with my cats! He even got an extremely shy cat who never comes out for anyone to approach him within the first few days - she's never warmed to anyone that fast before. He was always friendly and punctual, with lots of photos to show for it. The cats are really happy and so am I!”
About: i have a dogs all my life and many puppys and senior dogs so i have lots of experience! i love giving dogs brain stimulation like commands and hid and seek with treats Pet care fits into my routine as part of my everyday life. I make time each day for feeding, walks, playtime, and checking on how my pet is feeling. During the week I also handle grooming, cleaning, and making sure everything they need is stocked. Taking care of pets isn’t something I squeeze in it’s something I naturally plan my day around.

I also like to make sure that they are able to have their time outside and run around to get there energy out
“Christine has been such a blessing for us. We recently brought into our home a wonderful shelter dog who needed a lot of love and attention, and was initially suffering from severe separation anxiety whenever someone would leave the room. It has also been more than 15 years since we've had a dog and needless to say we were rusty. From day 1 of the meet and greet with Christine, our dog Dot immediately felt comfortable around her, our kids listened intently to her suggestions, explanations and stories of her own going through similar experiences. She's provided consistent advice and support (outside the formal drop-in/walking sessions we pay for). She has her own dogs and fosters dogs as well... and it's clear she does not do this for the money, but purely for her love of dogs. She posts updates during every visit, sends pics, cleans up if there's been an accident, and provides ideas/suggestions when she can. I highly recommend her!”
“Leigh is amazing! She took excellent care of our two fur babies. Right off the bat on the first meet and greet, we got an excellent first impression. She was friendly and brought them homemade amazing treats! When our trip came, she was in constant contact with us and sent so many wonderful pictures. We were able to relax and enjoy our trip with the knowledge that our pups were safe and cared for. Leigh is a rockstar.”
“Julianna is absolutely wonderful— she is very detail oriented and treats your pets just as she would her own. We left our cat in her care for a week and I could not have been happier with her daily updates and pictures, even though our cat is sometimes a weird dude who felt the need to hiss at his new friend. When we travel again I will definitely be reaching out to Julianna, she’s the perfect pet sitter and I’d highly recommend her.”

“Eric was awesome! I needed someone to watch Murph for the day and none of my regulars were available. Eric was my last chance and lucky for us he was available. But the real story here is that it was a great experience. Eric was extremely nice, easygoing and both him and his wife were very personable. I felt like I had known him all along and he that had watched Murphy before. Their dog, Bacon, is as gentle as can be and got along well with Murphy. I definitely will look to use Eric's services in the future.”

About: I've been a pet owner my whole life. There was always a dog in my home when I was a child. Later on, in my own home had raised two dogs and a cat from their earliest days. My sweet Golden Retriever, Milo, was with me and my kids since he was 10 weeks old. He was amazing! Sadly after a year of being sick and fighting a good fight, it became too much for him. My kids & I said goodbye to him with many tears and such a heaviness in our hearts. It has been sad not seeing his happy face when I come home or unusual to not have to take him out for his nighttime walk. We miss him so much! I would love to be able to share my love that I had for him with the caring of another dog. I'm home during the day which allows me to have the time to devote to your dogs.i also have two teenage kids who are able to walk and play with him. I live on a quiet dead end street with hardly any cars coming through. I have a nice sized yard which is great for playing and taking in the suns rays(my dog would love to just roll his body over in the grass...lol). So I would being taking care of your precious baby boy/girl as if he/she was my own! I also will only take care of one dog at a time... so YOUR dog will have ALL my attention! I am a very easy going down to earth person.... I'd love to chat with you about your needs and concerns for your dog. Please let me know what I can do to help you ... Talk to you soon! Kathy
“We can always count on Joannie! We have been working with her a few months now and so thankful. She always provides us with detailed updates of our dogs. Recommend her to anyone in need of a dog walker / boarder. Thank you as always Joannie!”
About: Hi! My name is Amy, and I’m a rising sophomore at Boston College. I’ve lived with dogs since I was 8 years old, so caring for them has always been a part of my life. Growing up with dogs taught me how to understand their personalities, keep them safe, and make sure they get the exercise, attention, and love they deserve. Being away at college means I don’t get to spend as much time with dogs as I’d like, which is why I’m excited to help care for yours! I look forward to giving your pup a fun, safe time and making sure you have peace of mind while they’re in my care. I am currently home for the summer, and am available and flexible. I do have some work and family events that I have blocked off on my calendar, but other than that, I am open to bookings! I have a very large, fenced in yard with a pool. In the summer, the pool is not covered, and my oldest dog loves to go swimming or take a quick step in to cool off. We have a variety of toys and dog beds in our house, and we also have two sets of dog gates.
About: I’ve cared for dogs with a range of personalities and energy levels, from playful puppies who need lots of exercise to older dogs who prefer slower walks and plenty of attention. I make sure each pet’s feeding, walking, and play routine is followed closely and keep owners updated with photos throughout their pet’s care. Punctual, gentle, patient, and dependable. Typically will be able to spend at least 30 minutes with your pet for a drop in visit and more if they need to be walked, or watched for longer. Flexible with timing. I’m currently in grad school and have a flexible schedule to provide care for your pet, whether it’s a drop in visit or a walk. I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and stress free environment. I follow each pet’s routine and the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any other specific needs. I’m attentive to their behavior and surroundings and make sure doors, gates and other areas are secure to prevent accidents or escapes. I treat every client’s home with the same care and respect I would want for my own, and I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe and happy while you’re away.
About: I have owned dogs most of my life, always showering them with the love and care they deserve. Now, I want to do the same for your pups! My wife and I both work full time out of the house (I’m in the office four days a week and work from home on Friday), and our kids are in school, so I am available Friday, Saturday and Sunday and over holiday weekends. I have a fenced-in yard and a friendly dog, so your dog will be housed safely, and will have a four-legged friend to play with. I take my dog on frequent walks and would be excited to take yours along with us.
About: I am current graduate student at Ramapo college looking for a new way to spend time with dogs (since I can’t get one of my own just yet)! I just ended my time volunteering at the Humane Society of Tampa Bay as a short term volunteer with completing my undergraduate degree. In the past I have worked at a dog daycare taking care of 15-20 dogs at a time. I pet sit for friends and family all the time but I am looking to meet new furry friends. I’m currently working part-time and attending school full-time on two nights a week. During the week, I have some nights free, and before classes, I have mornings and afternoons free! I will not offer in-home services as I have a family pet that does not get along well with other dogs, but does great with humans.
About: Hi! I have 22 years of experience and 55+ five star reviews here on Rover. I love dogs since I was 6 years old. I specialize in taking care of small dogs up to 25 pounds. I currently have 2 pups - 3 year old Yorkie named Cosita & 3 year old pug named Madrid. Before them, I've taken care of my pugs, Miami & Aliza (both 16 years old when they passed away in December 2020 & February 2021), along with pets of my neighbors, friends, and family friends. I know almost every dog breed by heart. My favorite dog breeds are Pugs and Yorkshire Terriers. I am available during the work week to take care of your fur baby, as I work from home part-time. This means that I am able to provide your pet with plenty of attention and exercise, even on weekdays. I am also able to adjust my schedule to accommodate your pet's needs, such as if they need to be fed or let outside at specific times. I am committed to providing your pet with the best possible care, and I will do everything I can to make sure they feel comfortable and loved while you are away. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs - my Yorkshire Terrier and my Pug - to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed (only if you instruct so)... I am also experienced in dog walking and drop-in visits. I make sure that your fur baby has water, food, and is able to do their business outside. ****I only accept dogs that weigh no more than 25 pounds**** Please feel free to reach out to book me and ask me any questions and/or comments! :)
About: Hello, my name is Tatiana! I’m a 28-year-old living in Woodcliff Lake, NJ, and a proud Rutgers University alumna with a degree in Pre-Veterinary Medicine! I’ve been in love with animals of all kind for as long as I can remember, driving me to pursue this degree! While at Rutgers, I gained hands-on experience working with horses, cows, goats, sheep, and pigs on the university farm. Additionally, I’ve spent over five years as a veterinary assistant and surgical nurse at a pet hospital, specializing in the care of cats and dogs. I’m proficient in administering oral medications and subcutaneous or intramuscular injections. I also have experience with chemotherapy medications, having cared for my dog, who has had a bladder tumor for nearly three years. I share my home with a grumpy 14-year-old Bichon Frise/Shih-Tzu and a 4-year-old Scottish Fold cat with Cerebellar Hypoplasia, whom I rescued during my time at the veterinary clinic. My love for animals knows no bounds, and I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own! With a passion for animals and years of experience, I offer a range of services including dog walking, overnight care, and pet sitting! So whether you're going on a weekend getaway or need someone to take care of your fur baby during the day, I've got you covered! I will gladly send you pictures and video updates of your sweet kitty or pupper! I also am happy to play with them using their favorite toys and don't mind spending extra time for a snuggle session while I’m there! If you're interested in my services, please feel free to message me to discuss your pet care needs! I can't wait to meet you and your fur babies! I’m currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Speech Language Pathology at Kean University with the goal of working with children. In addition, I wanted to continue my passion for working with cats and dogs, so I decided what better way than pet-sitting! I’m available all day on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. On Thursdays, I’m available from the morning until 3:30 p.m! Please note that my house sitting fee covers 10-12 hours overnight (depending on my availability) and one midday drop-in! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I adhere strictly to their established routines to ensure the pets feel comfortable and secure. I follow the feeding schedules, provide fresh water, and engage in stimulating playtime and exercise tailored to each pet’s needs. I also ensure the home remains secure and well-maintained during my visits. This includes tidying up areas like vacuuming around the litter box and cleaning up any pet-related messes. Additionally, I provide regular updates with photos and messages to keep the pet parent informed about their pets’ well-being!
“Janette was so sweet! I felt bad because my husband left on a trip and it was such a last minute request. She still was able to fit Finn in and provided pictures and a great report card. Finn was so happy! :) thank you again Janette!!”

“We travel frequently for long trips and our usual sitter was not available this time and so we chose to use Rover and found Ankita and her beautiful family . From the time of meet and Greet I knew that I couldn’t have found a better dog loving home for my coco . The love care and affection they showered on coco was evident from the multiple daily updates we received in form of videos and messages . Coco was the happiest puppy ever and I bet she is going to miss them so much - especially their Dog Panther who is such a sweet heart and their little son who became coco’s best friend and companion to play all day :) Coco has found a new second home and we will surely be using them again at our next time away”
“Monica and Kelvin were great to work with. They sent photos and updates of my dogs for the few days they had them. When I picked my boys up they seemed well taken care of, clean and happy.”
“Michelangelo was great with my dog! He sent me frequent updates and photos, and Burger looked happy and comfortable the whole time. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with him and would definitely book with him again! :)”
“I couldn’t be happier with how Priscilla looked after my dog Piper! She sent lots of pictures and updates. Piper left her very happy! We have already booked Priscilla for our next trip. 5 stars!”
“Eleanor is awesome!!! I reached out to her for an emergency to keep my 5month old GSD pupp for a day. She was kind enough to keep him and took every good care of my pupp.. I highly recommend her. My pupp loved her place and secured backyard is a blessing in disguise”
“Carolina will be the only sitter for my dog from now on. She and her family truly cared for my dog during my family's vacation and i can't thank her enough! They are true dog lover! Thank you, Carolina for your care and service for my dog!!!”
“Mickey was great! His entire household was very welcoming and he understood our senior dog’s needs. He was great at keeping us up to date with pictures and texts and made sure Duke was comfortable. Highly recommend!!”
“Amazing host! They offered a meet and greet before boarding. During boarding, they shared many photos and updates such as what they’ve played and their appetite. I felt very comfortable having them watch over my dog.”
“Ksenia gave our loved and spoiled precious Benny amazing care, attention, and customized approach. We received great communication for all four days consistently and he was well taken care of. Recommend without hesitation.”
“Tammy and her family provided a very warm and caring environment for my 8 1/2-year-old Labrador when we went away. Although my dog was a little scared of her one small doggy who likes to bark to say hello (but is very friendly), they quickly became friends. My dog is used to having me home all day and it was wonderful, not only that Tammy works very close to her home so she can pop in and out, but also that my dog could hang out with Tammy's daughter and dad who live with her, so there is always someone around. I would highly recommend Tammy who is lovely and easy to work with (and most importantly obviously loves dogs). I will definitely use her again!”
“Cheyenne took good care of our dog while we were away for the weekend. She was reliable, responsive, and everything went smoothly. We appreciated knowing our dog was in good hands while we were away. Thank you, Cheyenne!”
“Jennifer took great care of my black lab, Finnley for a few days while we were away for a long weekend at a family wedding. I don’t leave him often, so finding a local sitter that I felt good about took some research. I found Jennifer through Rover and saw great reviews. I appreciated getting photos while we were away to see that he was having a good time as well:-).”
“Joannie was kind and made sure we felt comfortable leaving Frankie in her care. When I came to pick Frankie up I could see how comfortable she felt with Joannie. Frankie very comfortably laid down next to her while we were talking. I can not thank her enough for keeping Frankie safe and loving her while she was in her care. I am lucky to have found Joannie!”
“Brittany was excellent! She cared for our dogs like they were her own, which gave us so much peace of mind. We loved receiving daily pictures and updates — it really showed how attentive and caring she is. Her fenced yard made us feel especially comfortable about our dogs’ safety, and she made sure they got outside multiple times each day for exercise, fresh air, and playtime. We couldn’t be happier with the care she provided and would definitely recommend her. Truly kind and caring!”
“Lauryn took excellent care of our Gemma. She was very communicative and gave our puppy girl plenty of exercise and plenty of love. We look forward to boarding Gemma was Lauryn again.”
