“Last night was my first night away from my 4 month old puppy. Even though my pup did great on our meet and great I was very anxious about leaving her. Bob knew my husband and I were celebrating our 25 year wedding anniversary and made sure we relaxed and enjoyed ourselves but sending periodic updates with pics. When we picked up our puppy today she just woke up from a nap on Bob's lap. She was happy to see us but in no rush to leave. Bob will now be watching her for 10 nights in the summer and I couldn't be happier. I am 100% confident that I found the perfect sitter for my little girl. Thank you again Bob!!!”
“Second time leaving our 1 year old golden with them. Definitely trust Paul, very accommodating and alleviated our anxiety of leaving our dog for a few nights. Will definitely use again.”
“Wonderful sitter for my two sometimes-rambunctious dogs!!! William took great care of them while I was gone for nearly a week. He sent regular updates and loved my pups like his own! Will definitely be a returning customer! Highly recommend!”
“Cream Cheese had a wonderful time with Shelley and his new doggo buddies. He settled in and got comfortable quickly. I was impressed with the level of care and communication throughout his stay.”
“This is a review for the entire family because all of them were such a big part of Lila's great weekend! My dog is high energy and also snuggly like velcro and Anmol and Trupti AND their boys gave her an affectionate, energetic weekend with lots of hugs and lots of play time. Will definitely use them again!”
“Gabby had a great time was very tired from all the fun she had. Lorie was great this was Gabby 1st stay hoping there will be many more to come. I have had Gabby at several overnight services around the Matawan and Marlboro area every time I picked Gabby up she was very dirty. I had a top notch place dropped her off just groomed and when I picked her up she was complete soaking wet and couldn’t get an explanation as to what happened. Lorie has a calmness about her even though I was a little anxious about leaving Gabby overnight by talking to her I felt very calming and safe and good clean hands.”
“Our dog buddy had a blast with Ken and his dog. Ken did a great job watching buddy. He sent pictures , took him on walks and let buddy run on his backyard. Highly recommend”
“Wonderful experience from the meet until pick up. Meg able to accommodate us for a last minute boarding. She sent photos & video daily which was amazing. She also gave us detailed daily updates on how our pupper ate and played. 10 out of 10 experience!”
“Christi and Pete helped us out last minute with a week long stay of our three month old puppy. I can’t recommend them enough! They were flexible and willing to work with puppy shenanigans. They sent pictures and texts throughout the week. They’ll be out first choice if we need a pet sitter soon!”
“Dawn was absolutely amazing with our senior pug. She truly cared for him as if he were her own.She kept us updated with videos and messages throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Her kindness, patience, and genuine love for animals really showed. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter, and we highly recommend Dawn to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our boy”
“If they had 10 stars I would give them to Meaghan. She is amazing. We left our havapoo Milo for 8 days with her. After seeing her reviews and meeting her we felt super confident and rightfully so. Milo had a great time. Her family is super dog friendly, loving, caring and genuinely want your dog to be comfortable not just watch him. The photos she sent were not just a snap shot but him doing the things he likes , like staring out a window(like he does at home) , sleeping in her husband's office while he works (like he does with me in mine), to running in the yard and playing with their dog. She gave our dog a home for 8 days not a kennel or doggie daycare(not knocking them) but this is different. I can't speak for other Rover sitters but Meaghan made a customer for as long as she wants to do this. Great person, great family, great dog sitters.. Thanks Meaghan for everything.”
“Our dog, Riley, was so well cared for by Josh. He met us at our car for drop off and pick up bc it's tricky to get to his apartment. While Riley was there we received pictures to keep us updated. It made our evening in Philly so much better knowing she was in good hands.”
About: My home was set up for an 80lb dog with a fenced in yard and areas around the house. Should be very comfortable for any dog. I’m very attentive to the pets, making sure their needs are met and that they are safe and sound. When I take on a job, my schedule is pretty cleared out for it since I’m a retired person. I can schedule my time around the care of your pet. I care for pets in my home by keeping an eye on them. Taking them out into the fenced yard and walking them twice a day. If they like to play fetch or tug I’ll do that with them too. I keep them fed, watered, exercised and rested.

“We left our cat with Steve for five nights. We seldomly ever leave our cat who travels with us all around in our camper. Of course we were a little bit nervous, leaving him in a strange city. But, Steve and his wife were amazing! The communication was outstanding and the kitty care was excellent! Steve’s wife works at pet shop and her love of animals was clear. I would not hesitate to leave leave Moby there again. Thank you so much for being such caring people and great pet sitters!”

She even brought our cat to the vet and was very compassionate. Angelica even offered to buy us groceries when we returning to an incoming snowstorm. She is an angel and I highly recommend her.”

My two senior cats are not always easy to please, but she won them over! Will be booking her again for our next trip!”
About: I’ve had cats for many years and understand that every cat has their own personality and comfort level. I also have experience caring for other people’s cats through drop-in visits and overnight care. Whether a cat is social and playful or more shy and independent, I always try to make them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away.
“Finnian was available last min and responded super quickly which is always great in a pinch but not expected. He was open to all my directions for my new puppy and comfortable dropping in without meeting her and not knowing what to expect. Took adorable pics and sent great notes! I do the job full time and so far I’m happy I found him :)”
“We are so happy with Kimberley’s care of our cats while we were away. She built trust quickly with our cats, administered medicine and we knew our cats were in good hands. We will definitely book her again!”
“Brittany was great with my kitties. Was receptive to any suggestions or changes that were made. Was very helpful when one of the cats got out because a friend of mine came to water the plants. All in all I would highly recommend her.”
“Jamie has taken care of my 2 cats multiple times now and always does a great job! Whether it’s extras like making sure Cat TV is on for them, feeding, treats and playtime, the cats are always happy and well taken care of when I come back from trips :)”
About: I don’t just watch cats—I care for them with the same attention and affection I give to my own. I’ve had pets my entire life, and I’ve also worked professionally with a pet-sitting company, where I gained hands-on experience with cats of every temperament, age, and personality. I understand that cats thrive when their routines feel safe and predictable, so I make it a priority to learn their habits, preferences, and boundaries. Whether your cat is shy, senior, playful, or a certified lap-lover, I adapt to their pace and comfort level. I’m experienced in administering medications, including oral meds and topical treatments, and I’m patient with senior kitties who may need a little extra support. Cleanliness is also incredibly important to me—I keep litter boxes spotless, food areas tidy, and your home as neat (or neater!) than you left it. Most of all, I genuinely enjoy building trust with cats. I take time to talk to them, play with them, and make sure they never feel lonely while you’re away. My goal is that you come home to a relaxed, happy cat—and complete peace of mind.
About: I was born and raised with my childhood cat and took care of her until she passed when she was seventeen. I've cared for neighbor's elderly cats throughout the years as well as got a new cat named Stevie two years ago as a kitten.
“Bridget has become my go-to cat sitter. I have hired her several times to care for our 2 cats. She replies to requests super fast and communicates during each care visit. Very reliably and trustworthy.”
About: I’ve been taking care of cats since I can remember. From a young age I loved rescuing cats off the streets and making sure they got proper care. I have a lot of experience taking care of people’s personal cats as well as taking care of them in a shelter environment. I have dealt with even the spiciest of cats with care !
“Karen was amazing with our dog Miley. She brought her own treats that Miley loved and was so caring and cautious with our dog. Karen made sure Miley felt safe and they had great playtime and walk. I highly recommend Karen to anyone reading this. A true dog lover and professional.”
About: Within the past couple years, I’ve been trusted to take care of many cats at a time. With feeding them, playing with them, and cleaning litter boxes I’ve been doing it all. Even with the stubborn cats that done feel like using the litter box.
“Heather is very dependable and caring towards our Moochi. Although it had been many months since Moochi had seen her, he remembered her and rubbed against her when he saw her. Heather is also a very good communicator. I highly recommend Heather!”

“Brian And his wife were so lovely with my dog! Before His first daycare day, we did a meet and greet where they asked throughtful questions about his meal sensitivities and tried to make him feel very comfortable. Would recommend 😊”

About: I’ve had pets my entire life, and two years ago I worked with a dog-sitting company—a truly rewarding experience. I love being surrounded by these four-legged friends, and I have a natural ability to communicate with them. I am currently off for the summer, but starting in September, I will be mostly available after 4:00 p.m. on weekdays and throughout the weekends. In my home, I focus on creating a safe, fun, and structured environment for every pet. We’ve recently added a secure fence to our extra-large backyard so visiting pups now have a spacious, supervised play area to run, explore, and burn off energy. In addition, I make sure dogs stay active and engaged with daily walks around the neighborhood, tailored to their age and energy level. In a client’s home, I maintain their pet’s routine as closely as possible—feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and walks—so they feel comfortable and cared for in their familiar space. My goal is always to provide consistency, safety, and lots of loving attention, whether I’m hosting your pet or caring for them in your home.

“Lorrie was fantastic with my dog Stevie! I could tell from our meet and greet that she is very knowledgeable about dogs. My dog is very scared of people he doesn’t know and hates when people approach him. Lorrie took her time, letting Stevie get comfortable and reading his body language when he needed space. Then, at his first daycare, Lorrie was extremely communicative with me, sending lots of pictures and videos about how Stevie was acclimating. So excited to use her daycare services again!”
“Sarah was so great! She took wonderful care of Lady and was very easy to get in touch with. She bonded with Lady quickly and made sure she was well taken care of. I would highly recommend her if you ever need a dog sitter, walker, etc. Thank you Sarah!”

“So damn fortunate to have found Bianca. As pet owners, everyone is familiar with the apprehension that accompanies when you have to trust a stranger with your pets or like I say “Your Heart and Soul”. My boys are uber spoiled and Bianca’s level of patience with them….I couldn’t ask for anything more. She is communicative, punctual, extremely professional. She took the time to truly listen and understand Buddy and Brody’s personalities - their likes and dislikes - their joys and anxieties. As a pet owner, one can’t ask for anything more. The only aspect that behooves me is why does she not charge more for her services? Lol. All kidding aside, she is a Godsend for pet owners. B, once again thank you for you.”

“First time using Rover. I am very pleased with the care provided by Vick for my two Cavachons Kurt and Kyle. She was very detailed orientated regarding their care and provided a nice long walk while we were out all day. A very kind care giver, the boys had a great time with her. Five star performance!!”

“Second time leaving our 1 year old golden with them. Definitely trust Paul, very accommodating and alleviated our anxiety of leaving our dog for a few nights. Will definitely use again.”
“Wonderful sitter for my two sometimes-rambunctious dogs!!! William took great care of them while I was gone for nearly a week. He sent regular updates and loved my pups like his own! Will definitely be a returning customer! Highly recommend!”
“Cream Cheese had a wonderful time with Shelley and his new doggo buddies. He settled in and got comfortable quickly. I was impressed with the level of care and communication throughout his stay.”
“This is a review for the entire family because all of them were such a big part of Lila's great weekend! My dog is high energy and also snuggly like velcro and Anmol and Trupti AND their boys gave her an affectionate, energetic weekend with lots of hugs and lots of play time. Will definitely use them again!”
“Gabby had a great time was very tired from all the fun she had. Lorie was great this was Gabby 1st stay hoping there will be many more to come. I have had Gabby at several overnight services around the Matawan and Marlboro area every time I picked Gabby up she was very dirty. I had a top notch place dropped her off just groomed and when I picked her up she was complete soaking wet and couldn’t get an explanation as to what happened. Lorie has a calmness about her even though I was a little anxious about leaving Gabby overnight by talking to her I felt very calming and safe and good clean hands.”
“Our dog buddy had a blast with Ken and his dog. Ken did a great job watching buddy. He sent pictures , took him on walks and let buddy run on his backyard. Highly recommend”
“Wonderful experience from the meet until pick up. Meg able to accommodate us for a last minute boarding. She sent photos & video daily which was amazing. She also gave us detailed daily updates on how our pupper ate and played. 10 out of 10 experience!”
“Christi and Pete helped us out last minute with a week long stay of our three month old puppy. I can’t recommend them enough! They were flexible and willing to work with puppy shenanigans. They sent pictures and texts throughout the week. They’ll be out first choice if we need a pet sitter soon!”
“Dawn was absolutely amazing with our senior pug. She truly cared for him as if he were her own.She kept us updated with videos and messages throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Her kindness, patience, and genuine love for animals really showed. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter, and we highly recommend Dawn to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our boy”
“Our dog, Riley, was so well cared for by Josh. He met us at our car for drop off and pick up bc it's tricky to get to his apartment. While Riley was there we received pictures to keep us updated. It made our evening in Philly so much better knowing she was in good hands.”
About: My home was set up for an 80lb dog with a fenced in yard and areas around the house. Should be very comfortable for any dog. I’m very attentive to the pets, making sure their needs are met and that they are safe and sound. When I take on a job, my schedule is pretty cleared out for it since I’m a retired person. I can schedule my time around the care of your pet. I care for pets in my home by keeping an eye on them. Taking them out into the fenced yard and walking them twice a day. If they like to play fetch or tug I’ll do that with them too. I keep them fed, watered, exercised and rested.
“I have review Rachel a few times now and every time, she is amazing. She watched our almost 1 year old golden doodle for 6 days and nights. Babka is so happy when she is there. And so happy when she comes home. No issues whatsoever and Rachel sent pictures and videos too. Also her dog loves Babka and that makes us so happy for them both to have a friend to play with for the week. We will continue to use Rachel whenever we can.”
“Seriously cannot recommend Erick enough. My two pups felt right at home in his house and got along so well with his two dogs. He’s extremely reliable, quick to respond and also sends daily updates so you know your babies are doing okay. I will be booking them again for future vacations and I recommend you do the same!”
About: We’ve had dogs our entire lives and currently share our home with an Australian Shepherd, so we’re very familiar with active dogs and consistent routines. We’ve also fostered dogs, giving us experience helping pets feel comfortable in new environments and working with different personalities. We treat every dog like our own and focus on making them feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into our routine since we both work from home and are around throughout the day. Pets receive regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of attention in a calm family environment. With two adults home, we’re able to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and care while keeping pets comfortable and on their normal routines. Because we have two young children, we only accept dogs that are friendly with kids and other dogs. Dogs stay with us as part of our daily family routine and receive regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of attention throughout the day since we both work from home. We also have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and exercise. Our goal is to provide a comfortable, supervised home environment where dogs feel relaxed and cared for.
“What a relief to find Vincent who was able to board our German Shepherd mix while we went away for almost a week. He sent us updates and we were happy our pet wasn’t alone. He was safe and got along with their beautiful lab mix-Scarlett. Thank you Vincent!”
