“Ekaterina and her family were amazing and so loving with Charlie. She was very communicative and gave us constant photo and video updates. Her kids were also wonderful with Charlie. We could tell Charlie had the best time because she seemed a little sad when she came back home. Highly recommend Ekaterina and will definitely book again in the future!”

“We left our dog Whiskey with Jessica for a five day vacation stay. Jessica was outstanding! She made us feel so comfortable leaving him with her. She sent pictures everyday and he has a bud for life in butters. Jessica gave whiskey bones and play toys throughout the stay and treated him like he was her very own. We will leave him again and again with Jessica from now on because we trust her and appreciate her tremendously! Thank you so much Jessica!”

“Our dog Monster had a fantastic stay with Michelle. We felt very comfortable leaving him with her family for 9 days while we were away. She provided multiple updates throughout our trip, and it was easy to tell Monster was having a great time. Highly recommend!”
“We felt so comfortable boarding our dog with Seureon and Dongkwan! We received tons of photo updates throughout his stay, and they were responsive and flexible whenever communicating through logistics. Our dog is very hyper, but he seemed nice and worn out from playing when we picked him up. We will be boarding our dog here again!”

“Caroline was a gem! She was very accommodating of the last minute request and the way she wanted to do a short meet and greet prior to my dog’s stay, it felt very genuine of her to ensure her dogs and my dog had a good introduction. I was nervous about leaving my dog Berkeley for a week, but Caroline and her family really loved on Berkeley like their own and I really loved that she sent frequent photos, videos, and updates about how Berkeley was doing.”

About: When I was 11 years old, I brought home a Collie named Lucy. She was a sweet girl, and our whole neighborhood helped feed and care for her. That’s when I truly fell in love with dogs. I would love to spend time with your pet and give them the same love, attention, and care. Your dog will be treated like family and surrounded by love and kindness. 🐾 I currently work part-time, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pups. I’d love to take them for walks, play with them, and give them lots of love and attention! 🐾❤️ I will make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved in my home. I will follow their regular feeding, walking, and potty schedule, give them plenty of attention and playtime, and make sure they always have fresh water. I will also respect their individual personality and needs. My goal is for your pet to feel at home while you’re away. 🐾❤️
“Lisa and her family took exceptional care of my 1 year old Maltipoo. Lisa was accommodating, flexible and very communicative. I would not hesitate at all to book with her again. Thanks Lisa!”

“This is our second time book with Lucas and Katherine and we will definitely be using them again. They are so sweet, send the cutest pictures and show so much long to my baby girl.”

“Bonnie was available for a first time, last minute boarding request and the whole experience from a quick meet and greet onwards was great. Very reassuring to have Luke stay at her home. He was comfortable for sure. Thank you!”

“Megan & Nick are THE best. They welcomed our 3-yr old American Staffy into their home and took excellent care of her for a week. They will be my go to for sure and I can vouch for them without reservation!”

“Becky and family were such great pet sitters! They sent so many photos of my dog and I can tell from the photos that Juniper was in good hands. Excellent communicators. I would recommend them to anyone that wants their dog to feel comfortable while you are away.”

“Jen was super flexible on drop-off & pick up times & extended schedule. She was proactive in sending photos of my dog from walks & generous in using extra dog booties on my dogs paws to keep him cleaner. Last minute I had some probiotics & med to give my dog & she was ok with that too! I would definitely be confortable leaving my fur baby with Jen & highly recommend her.”

“Booked a last min 5 night stay for my senior golden retriever! I sent an essay of instruction and Starry + Gio did an amazing job taking care of him. It was literally the coldest winter/weekend in NJ/NY area in the past 10+ years. They kept me updated constantly with walk pics throughout the day and pics of him in general! I was very happy to know that their dog (Walnut) is a sweetheart and gets along well with my dog! Highly recommend if you’re looking for a reliable and responsible couple to dog sit. Will definitely use again. Thank you!”

“Jessica was very proactive in her communications. We were at ease because of all the periodic communications, photos and videos that shared with us. The house was very welcoming to our little fur baby. Thanks again Jessica for taking care of Lizzie.”

“This is the second time our dog Charlie has stayed with Tynesha and her family. They take great care of him, give him lots of love, share photos throughout the time we are away. In addition to walks, there is a nice big fenced back yard where he can run. If you have to be away, you really could not ask for more.”

“Our Winston had a great day with Marlene! She was very attentive to him and had excellent communication before and during his stay. We are looking forward to having Winston stay with her again in the future!”

“We had a lovely experience with Bhavani! She was very flexible and accommodating our our slightly uncertain drop-off/pick-up times. She was also very responsive to our texts and sent several videos unprompted to show how well Tala was settling in for her short stay. This was great for our peace of mind!”

“This is Basil’s second time staying with Stacia. She is an excellent host/sitter. I was kept informed with pictures of Basil’s stay. From the pictures I could tell Basil was having a great time. Stacia even gave Basil and myself a gift at the end of his stay. Super Sweet! Thank you again, Stacia for taking excellent care of my fur-son!”

“Shaun is wonderful with our 5 year old golden. He takes such good care of her, lots of walks, attention, and play, as well as sends us frequent update and photos! Thank you!”

“I am grateful for Barbara's help during recent drop-in visits for my two kitties. She was very attentive to my cats' needs, including one cat who needed medication. I appreciated her reliable help and plan to book her services again without hesitation. Many thanks for this peace of mind!”


“Marlee has been a great sitter for my kitty, Bluebelle, this year! She’s come and checked on her for a few trips I’ve taken and it’s been a great experience every time. Marlee is responsive and provides great feedback on how Bluebelle is doing while I’m away. I’m confident in her and have little worry leaving Bluebelle behind knowing Marlee will be checking on her.”

“I was very impressed with Claire and her patience in dealing with my cat's skittish behavior. This was the first time having a cat sitter and my cats were hiding quite often. Claire took the time to find my skittish cats and ensure they were fed by staying with them long enough to see them eat. She sent me updates on them and on their various hiding spots. Overall if I need a cat sitter again I would rebook Claire because she took great care of my cats.”
“Katherine was great at watching our kitties when we were away. We have a cat that needs multiple pills and she was a champ at getting them to him. We would definitely book with her again!”


“Jiajia went above and beyond expectations taking care of Teddy over the holidays. From detailed check-ins to creating forts and toys and hiding treats to keep him occupied, I felt confident he was in good hands while I was away. She was very responsive when I had questions, and caring and patient with a young, somewhat anti-social cat as well! Jiajia will be my first choice for Teddy on all future travels.”


“Jess was the perfect cat sitter for our 4 fur babies! She followed our very detailed instructions perfectly and was great at sending us photos and video updates. We will definitely be booking her again the next time we need a cat sitter!”

“Xiomara is my go-to sitter for my two cats! She’s amazing, trustworthy, smooth communication and she took great care of my two babies! She also took a lot of lovely pictures during each visit, which is super appreciated. Highly recommended her, your pet will be in good hands for sure! Looking forward to her next visit with my cats.”


“Kimberly has been extremely reliable and took great care of Penny, Kimberly also made multiple visits at home to ensure my cat was doing okay! Thankyou so much and also thanks a lot for accepting last minute request it was really helpful and lot of relief.”

“Sara was very communicative and accommodating. I requested late feedings and had a a new security system that she navigated seamlessly. She was in touch every step of the way and I felt my fur baby was well taken care of. Would definitely use again!”

“Jessica took great care of my two cats while I was away for the weekend. She gave them lots of play and affection, kept them well fed and watered, and kept the litter box clean. She even left a homemade cat toy for them!”


“Diane & Dave were great! Being a new cat mom, I was struggling to give Bianco the meds he needed. They helped me successfully give Bianco his medicine and they were so sweet with him. Thank you!!”

About: Boarding Services- dogs 0 to 20 pounds. I grew up in a household that always had multiple dogs and was actively involved in their care, including feeding, bathing, walking, and providing plenty of love and attention. I have been caring for dogs for over 25 years and has always been a natural part of my life. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your loved family member. I work part-time remotely, which means your pet will get tons of cuddles, playtime, and supervision throughout the day! I may occasionally step out for short errands, but I am never away for more than a couple of hours at a time. Your pet will always receive attentive, loving care in a safe environment. • ☀️ Morning Routine (7:00 AM - 9:00 AM): We kickstart the day with a refreshing morning walk to stretch those legs and take care of business. This is followed by breakfast, fresh water, and any morning medications your pup requires. • 🎾 Midday & Afternoon (12:00 AM - 2:00 PM): Afternoon potty break and mental stimulation-just as important as physical exercise! We spend this time also playing fetch in a secure area and playing with puzzle toys/snuffle mat. Afterward, they get plenty of time to lounge, nap, and relax. • 🌇 Early Evening (5:00 PM - 7:00 PM): It's time for another potty break and dinner. If your dog has high energy, this is a great time for a longer evening walk or a trip to a local, nearby park if permitted. • 🌙 Wind Down (8:00 PM - 9:00 PM): We wrap up the day with a final short walk before bedtime. Then, it's quality cuddle and belly rub time on the couch before lights out! I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving home environment where your dog will receive personalized attention and care. My goal is to have your pet feel happy and secure, whether they are in their home or mine. I have been a pet owner my entire life and have been relied upon by friends, family, and neighbors for pet care for the past 25 years. My practical, hands-on experience has taught me patience, reliability, and how to anticipate a pet's needs and comfort levels. I’m comfortable with various breeds and temperaments and committed to upholding the highest standard of care.
“This is the second time Emily has petsit for my 2 cats. As always she was amazing. My first experience was back in February when I had to go on an extended work trip for 10 days. Emily was amazing and my 2 cats warmed right up to her. She took such great care of them. She went above and beyond even making it to take care of them during the blizzard. I cannot recommend Emily enough. She will love your pets like they are her own making sure their needs are met while giving lots of play time and cuddles. She even got my extremely timid cat to take her medicine twice a day- an amazing feat!! Her updates and communication were thorough and put me at ease while I was away. I highly recommend her to everyone in the area and will be booking her for my future pet sitting needs.”

About: Growing up with many pets, I always enjoyed spending time with and caring for my furry family members. While in college and into present day, I continued to work with animals through dog walking as well as pet and house sitting. Past clients, friends, and neighbors rely on me to care for and spoil their furry family members while away from home on trips or simply for a quick gaunt to the park. In the past, I worked with cats, dogs, and other mammals, but I am more than happy to learn how to care for other pets, such as amphibians, birds, and reptiles. I have a flexible job full time job. I am available most days of the week except Thursday to relocate for pet and house sitting. I’m flexible to swing by to check on your pet or take for a walk throughout the day if overnights are of less interest. I am available throughout the day for quick let outs and check-ins with your pets. I can easily crate your dog in my apartment while boarding them. I also live 5 minutes from a great dog parks for your pup to get socialization. For cats and other furry friends, there is plenty of room for them to roam and play. FYI: I do have one cat, named Sedona. She is very chill around other pets and does her own thing.

“Second time at Jessica’s place. Pretzel had a lot of fun and came home taking a nap right away. Jessica trained Pretzel walking and left very detailed note about Pretzel’s day, water break/food break etc, which is very appreciated!”
“Armani had a great time during his sit as he came back energetic and super playful! They also provided constant updates which I absolutely loved. They definitely took care of my puppy, so I highly recommend!”


“Ekaterina and her family did such an amazing job with my very shy, reserved labradoodle. He spent the entire day at their home and upon pickup, he was calm, content and happy. I highly recommend Ekaterina and we look forward to using her again!”

About: I’m a stay at home mom with too many years experience caring for dogs and puppies to count! Our home is a dog’s dream vacation. We have a friendly dog who loves company, two small kids who adore playing with pups, and a spacious fenced in yard perfect for romping around. Your dog won’t just be looked after—they’ll be part of our family while you’re away. I am a stay at home mom of two elementary school kids , so my schedule is pretty flexible and gives me time to show your sweet pups all the attention and love they need. I have a spacious fenced in yard where your pups can run around and play in. It’s my goal to make your dog feel as loved and safe as they do at home.
“Lina seemed to have a good time at Lisa's. Lisa provided lots of TLC, and we really appreciated it especially since it was her first day. Looking forward to her staying the weekend. Thank you!”

“This was Oreo’s second day here and it was just as amazing as the first. He is almost 12, very particular about people, and not the easiest dog to win over — so the fact that he was excited to go back says everything. As chaotic as our day was, it was such a huge relief knowing he was happy, comfortable, and in such good hands. Jackie’s flexibility, kindness, and obvious love for dogs really stood out. It is not easy to find someone you fully trust with your dog, especially one with a picky personality, but this truly feels like a safe, loving, and comfortable home for him. We are so grateful to have found Jackie and will absolutely continue to book again (already have) 😉”

“Megan & Nick were absolutely stellar dog sitters. They answered all my questions and accommodated a rushed request for both the booking and a meet and greet. They were extremely communicative throughout the whole process and put a new dog dad at ease. I would remiss to leave out the lovable Bubba, who was a most gracious host, sharing his toys and his space. He and Rigby were fast friends. The whole family was lovely, clearly dog lovers. Looking forward to booking with them again soon!”

“Connor was amazing with my newly adopted dog, Wendy! I was very nervous leaving her as Wendy is still learning to trust new humans so she is a little anxious in new environments. But Connor understood, gave her space and kept her comfortable during her first doggy day care experience. She had fun socializing with his dog Kygo along with some other dog friends outside in his fully fenced backyard. Connor put me at ease with updates and pictures as well. I will be using Connor again in the future and definitely recommend his services to others!”

About: We lost our 13 yr old american bulldog / hound mix and while mom (Lisa) isn't ready to have a new FT family member just yet, my son and I would be so excited to have fun with and love your pet as our own while you are away. We have a fenced-in back yard, lots of toys and a comfy dog bed - though of course you are welcome to bring your own gear, if it makes your pet feel more comfortable and at home. Typically only board 1 family at a time. Because our schedules can vary, we’re only able to accept boarding requests 2-3 months in advance. We appreciate your understanding!

We have a fenced yard and I have experience with senior dogs where extra care, love and medication may be needed, and am totally fine with larger dogs as well.

“Elaine has been amazing with our dog, Jax! He’s usually pretty shy, but he warmed up to her so quickly. It’s clear she really understands dogs and takes her time to make them feel comfortable. She’s reliable, kind, and clearly loves what she does. We’re so glad we found her!”

“Diane was great and really took care of my dog Timber on his walk. She was very communicative and I felt very comfortable and knew I had nothing to worry about while I was at work - Thank You!”

“If I could give 100 stars, I would! Anthony is highly knowledgeable, kind, calm, professional, punctual, and friendly. He has a perfect energy that puts dogs at ease. Our two pups have some behavioral issues that Anthony was actually able to shine light on and finally get myself and my fiancé on the same page. His professionalism shown through as well, and he made sure that the meeting was the best possible for our dogs. I can truly say that it was the most productive and positive experience I have had using Rover. I have had strong breeds my whole life and Anthony made an excellent impression on my German shepherd as well as my smaller dog, who is very picky about people. He helped us come up with next steps and made us feel at ease. We will definitely be using his services during our wedding weekend, and I know my dogs will be in excellent hands!”

We will definitely use Josh again for future dog care needs and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Thank you, Josh! 🐾”

Highly recommend Jordy to anyone looking for a fantastic, attentive pet sitter!”


“This was our first time using Rover, and we honestly couldn’t have gotten luckier than finding Natasha! She was absolutely wonderful from start to finish - incredibly professional, caring, and communicative. She kept us updated throughout our dog Clark’s stay with regular messages and plenty of adorable pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. Clark is a Cavapoo who requires a lot of attention, love, and affection, and it was immediately clear when we picked him up that he had been spoiled and incredibly well taken care of. He came home happy, relaxed, and clearly loved his time with Natasha! We will 100% be using Natasha for all of our future boarding needs. If you’re looking for someone you can completely trust with your dog, we highly recommend her. 10/10, we couldn’t be happier!”

“First time using Rover since I needed a last minute sitter for my dog, Luna. Conner made himself available for a meet and greet on short notice and Luna had a positive connection from the beginning. He provided daily updates with pictures / videos which helped keep my mind at ease. Will definitely be rebooking with Connor if Luna needs a sitter again and recommend him to others”

“I highly recommend Primavera without any hesitation. She went over and beyond to ensure that my dogs were comfortable despite their ‘anxious and nervous’ behaviors. She was very patient with them. She also kept me updated with pictures and video. I will surely be a repeat customer.”

About: Hello - I'm Abbie. I have recently left the corporate world to pursue my graduate degree full time and reside in Cranford, NJ. I am a proud dog mom to one doggie - Kai - who absolutely adores other dogs. He uses Rover too when I am away! I have been taking care of animals since I could remember! Growing up in an animal lover household, I have had birds, turtles, bunnies, cats, and dogs. I got my first pet when I was 5 years old; a bunny named Chocolate. I am sadly away from my animals in my home. At my family home, I have a yorkie named Dexter and many silkie chickens; Dobby, Tori, and Sunshine just to name a few! Throughout my undergrad, I also lived with my roommate's Aussie named Asher whom I bathed, walked, and played lots of fetch with. I started house sitting when I was in high school for my neighbors and family-friends on vacations/weekends. I trained my dog Dexter on my own when I was 15 years old and am used to bringing him on daily walks! I am happy to walk, bathe, cuddle, and feed your pet along with any other services you would need. I have a strong love for all animals big and small and will treat them like my own (and so will Kai) Since I am a graduate student, my schedule is very fluid. I have classes in the evenings mostly and my weekends are quite free. Since I have a dog of my own, I am already up around 7-8AM for morning walks a food. I walk my dog at least 1 hour a day - one long walk during lunch time and another in the evening after dinner. I rent a home with an unfenced yard. I already take Kai on 2-3 walks a day. I will be able to walk your furry friend as well!
“So thankful for Nan and her family for their loving care and love for Ichigo! She sent me updates along with photos and videos throughout the stay which gave me a big relief. She was content and calm when I came to pick her up, I can tell that she received plenty love and attention.”

“Absolutely wonderful sitter! What meant the most to me was being able to relax while I was away and know that my dog was in good hands. I really appreciated the communication and updates, and I never once felt like I had to worry. When I came back, my dog was happy and relaxed, which told me everything I needed to know. I’m so thankful for her and would absolutely have her sit for my dog again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable.”

“Amarilis was easy to connect with, punctual and a great help with my dog. I booked a last minute request and she was able to accommodate me by taking care of my dog while I was out of town. She followed his routine and it allowed for the stay to go smoothly. I recommend using Amarilis and I will be booking with her more often.”
“Yanina and Eric were truly exceptional caregivers. They went above and beyond in tending to my beloved dog, Scooby, an 11-year-old Labrador mix. They showered him with affection and personalized attention, making sure he felt safe, loved, and cherished during his stay. Scooby also had the wonderful opportunity to forge new friendships with other pets, which significantly alleviated my worries and brought me peace of mind. The couple was highly communicative, sharing adorable and loving photos that warmed my heart. They were extremely flexible and accommodating, even with last-minute requests. I would undoubtedly trust and rely on them again in the future!”

“Susan was great with our senior dog! We loved getting the daily updates and could tell our pup received excellent care and his routine was very similar to the one he keeps at our home. Would recommend Susan in a heartbeat!”
