“Maisha is the best dog sitter ever! She sends updates/pictures often, and ensured that my fur baby was having the best time. He enjoyed his stay!”
“Jenny was great with our dig, Riley. She asked lots of smart questions to be sure Riley was getting the best care and staying on his routine. She sent photos and was very accommodating when out flight delay resulted in a later than expected pick up. I highly recommend Jenny and will certainly call on her again.”
“Amanda sent us lots of photos and had everything packed up and ready when we arrived to pick her up. Our girl seemed happy as can be in the photos and when we picked her up. Thanks Amanda!”
“We went to Newyork and nearby places for a vacation. Neide was an absolute blessing to take care my little baby Leo. He is a momma’s boy and doesn’t like to stay away from me. We both love to believe that he is out of my womb 😂. Neide did a fantastic job in taking care of him and giving him the love that he was missing while we were away. I wish I have Neide near my home so I can do more vacations that I do. She is absolute best and 💯 I will reach out to her if I am around the area”
“Gabriela was great! My girls were very well taken care of and seemed to enjoy every minute. She kept me up to date on how they were doing and sent me pictures as well. We will definitely be using her again when we go out of town. Thanks for the great experience, I will be sure to recommend you!”
“Let me start by saying this was my first time using Rover ever. Andrew was so helpful and reassuring and explained everything to me. Additionally, while I was away he kept me up to date with texts and pictures of Finn. Finn had a great time with Andrew and you can just tell Andrew knew exactly how to best care for my puppy. Thank you so much!!”
“Caroline took absolutely amazing care of my puppy. She kept sending us photos and videos of him while in her care. He came back super happy with his time off ?. I would highly recommend her and would definitely be taking her up on future opportunities for care!”
“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!”
“We booked with Sanaz for a long weekend and Ivy adored her! She sent us daily updates and took Ivy on lots of walks. Ivy gets very anxious when we go anywhere without her, and Sanaz was very understanding of her separation anxiety and made her as comfortable as possible. She also was flexible with timing of drop offs and pick ups which was much appreciated!! Thank you so much! (:”
“Lifu was great with Lily, seems Lily had a good time staying over with her. Very good communication and punctual on drop off and pick up times, would recommend to other dog parents!”
“Grace was wonderful with Nigel. She was able to accommodate a last minute request and was always communicative. She took Nigel on walks and to the dog park, and he seemed super happy to be with her.”
“Rochelle is super reliable and took really good care of my kitties. Gave me updates on them daily basis. Highly recommend her because I would hire her again!”
“This was the FIRST time I was able to leave my dogs anywhere and actually not worry or stress about how things may be going. Everything from the house space to the family, it’s all just perfect! And I’m extremely picky! So ya just a great experience in every way. I wish all sitters were like this one. Definitely recommend her and I would gladly pay even more than she charges. Totally worth the peace of mind. 10 stars!!”
“Michelle went above and beyond for my dog Dodo during his stay. He was greatly cared and loved by Michelle. Michelle’s dog Archie was so awesome and friendly so they were able to bond and hang out. She sent photos and videos regularly and let me know how Dodo was doing. A must five star!!!!”
“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.”
“From the second we met Joni I knew our dog Poppy would be in great hands. Poppy immediately felt comfortable with Joni and didn't even look back as we walked away during the drop off. Joni was in touch with us with pictures and messages about what Poppy was up to several times a day. We would recommend Joni to anyone who is looking for a loving and reliable pet sitter. Thank you Joni!!!!!”

“Toni was great! My cat, who tends to be shy with new people, loved her. She was punctual, communicated well, and sent lots of pictures and updates while she was watching her.”
“Irene was so amazing. She was able to perfectly administer a multi-step cat medicine. The cats loved her, even our less friendly cat wanted to interact with her. We definitely plan to book with her again!”
“Karollyne took great care of my cat Jellybean while I was away! Communication was quick and helpful and I will definitely consider booking her again in the future. Thank you!”
“Neide was THE BEST! Caring and attentive, she also sent frequent photos and videos to reassure me and my kids that our kitty was doing well. Highly recommended”
“Lillian is awesome! Extremely attentive. Always left great notes. She was prompt and showed up twice daily at consistent time frames to take care of my little man! He is shy, and she even got him to snuggle on her lap after a few days of bonding! I know my little buddy Charleston is in great hands now whenever I leave town because I have Lillian to help care for him! Thanks again!”
“Deliris was very communicative and accommodating with taking care of our cats; I never once worried about them in her care! She sends great pictures and very detailed updates. I recommend choosing her to sit your babies!”
“Kayla was absolutely WONDERFUL with our two cats. Our cats are still acclimating to one another, and not only did she spend time with each of them but she did an amazing job at having them play together, listening to them if they had enough, and overall giving them many positive bonding experiences with each other. I also have a much more involved feeding routine/schedule for them than most people, and she followed everything perfectly. I always looked forward to her reports and pictures, and she was very thorough on her stay and how the cats were acting/feeling. I'm 100% sure they will miss her (especially Filo) and I will definitely call on Kayla again in the future!”
“Joni was a wonderful sitter for Tigger! She communicated well throughout the stay and took great care of him — including giving him his medication and gently comforting him when he was scared. The only minor hiccup was with the Rover card check-in timing (either forgetting or tapping a bit too early), but that’s a small thing. Overall, I’d highly recommend her and would definitely book again!”
“Jade was exceptional! Her communication and photos the whole time were perfect and she bonded so well with my cat. I would absolutely work with Jade again the next time I need a cat sitter. She asked questions and got to know my cat and her habits during our meet and greet and followed all instructions we left perfectly!”
“Irisdelie was fantastic! She was able to break through to our shy cat and give her the care she needed. Her communication was great, even when we hit a few snags. Thanks so much, Irisdelie!”
About: Hi, I’m Aria✨ I’m a JC local who enjoys long walks at the park (with your dog). My love for animals started when I volunteered to dog-walk and help find dogs a home at an SPCA in Charleston, SC for 3 yrs. Since then, I’ve been taking care of my family, friends, and neighbors dogs :) I’ll only confirm a dog-walk and dog sitting shift if I’m working from home and can guarantee I can be present with your fur baby •Affection (dogs love company that make them feel comfortable and loved). I’m always sure to make them feel seen and cared for. It can be tough on them being away from their caregiver. So affection goes a long way. •Making sure they’re fed & hydrated (always attending them according to their usual/specific routine).
About: I have over 5 years of hands-on experience fostering kittens, mother cats with litters, and adult cats in Texas. My background includes: - Fostering: Provided care and socialization for kittens, moms with litters, and adult cats, ensuring their health and well-being until adoption. - Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR): Participated in Austin’s catch and release program, helping community cats by safely trapping, neutering/spaying, and releasing them. - Behavioral Training: Trained to read feline body language, allowing me to build trust with even the most timid or anxious cats. - Special Needs: Comfortable with administering medication, bottle-feeding kittens, and supporting cats with unique medical or behavioral needs.
About: Hello, I’m a 27 year old who has loved animals their entire life. Currently I don’t have any pets but while I was younger my family always had animals in the house. I’ve had the pleasure of growing up around dogs and cats. When I moved away from home I started pet sitting for family friends and neighbors. I have pet sat cats, dogs, even a parrot and a snake. I love caring for other people's pets and understand the love and care that is expected when taking on this job. Caring for animals is one of my favorite past times. I currently freelance so my availably is extremely open. That also means your pet will get my full attention for any care they need. I work from home so I will have ample time to care for the pets. I also live walking distance from a park so walks will not be a problem. I don't currently have pets but the way I would care for pets in my home is by paying as much attention as I can to them. Making sure they are well fed, comfortable and relaxed.
“Nicolle was a wonderful sitter to my cat while I was out on a holiday. She took great care of her while also making sure my home was in a good state for my cat. She is very caring and so loving towards my cat. She played with her, brushed her, petted her. She also made sure all the details were taken care of. Will recommend her and take her services once again :)”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 2 years and truly love caring for animals. Along with my experience providing overnight care, I currently work as a veterinary assistant, where I care for both dogs and cats in a professional setting. Working in vet medicine has helped me become comfortable with pets of all ages, sizes, personalities, and needs, including senior pets and anxious animals. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and routine to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work full time, so I fit pet care around my work schedule. I’m available on weekends and some Thursdays, which I’ve listed in my availability. I make sure to plan ahead so I can be consistent and give pets proper care and attention when I’m with them. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible to help the pet feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get walks and bathroom breaks, and receive plenty of attention and playtime. I also keep their environment clean and safe and follow any specific instructions provided by the owner.

“Neide's care for our dog Ace was exceptional. Her genuine love for animals was evident, and Ace connected with her instantly. Neide's attention to detail, communication, and dedication turned our worries into peace of mind. Highly recommended for her outstanding pet care!”
About: As a devoted dog enthusiast, I have accumulated over two decades of expertise in pet care and have been a dog owner for 25 years. My two English cocker spaniels hold a special place in my heart, making them my absolute world, alongside my spaniel before my current two that I had for 17 years, who passed away in 2019. Spaniels hold a special place in my heart. As a remote worker with a highly flexible schedule, I am able to be present with the puppies and dogs regardless of whether it is a weekend or a weekday. Residing in a two-story townhouse, I do not have a backyard, but I do have three balconies. Additionally, there is a park located nearby. I also have two English cocker spaniels, who are siblings, named Parker and Riley. They are friendly and calm after the initial few minutes. Parker and Riley are both six years old, and my husband and I ensure their well-being by keeping them well-groomed. We consistently monitor their eyes, perform regular teeth brushing, and ensure that their paws and nails are in optimal condition.
“I am extremely satisfied with the service I received. Luna was taken care of, very well, and the communication (written/visually) was outstanding! I am very pleased with the attention, and we will be back soon! Thanks very much! We are both very happy Rovers.”
About: Since I was young I grew up in a house surrounded by animals so I always learned to love and respect them. I always take care of friends and family's pets when they travel, and i love it! I’m a full time pet sitter who also works as a content creator lol you might be asked if I can create content with your pet. 🐾 I also have my husband’s help time to time 🥰 he is a pet lover just like me and he is more than happy to help! I believe that home is the best and safest place for your pet, so I make myself available to go to your home and take care of your pet. Keeping a healthy and loving environment for the pet to go through this moment in the most friendly and loving way. As for my house is on the second floor but your pet will have a good time walking in the park across the street.
About: Hi! I’m Tina, a lifelong dog lover who truly believes pets are family. Growing up, I had a Pekingese who was part of our family for 16 wonderful years, she was my best friend, and I was involved in her care every single day, from walks and feeding to just spending time together. In high school I also helped walk and care for dogs in my neighborhood, which gave me experience with all kinds of personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I’m not a professionally trained handler, but I think honesty goes a long way when someone is trusting you with their dog. What I can genuinely offer is patience, attentiveness, and a lot of love. I’m actually looking into additional pet care training because this is something I really enjoy and want to keep growing in. I work fully remotely, which means I can provide lots of supervision, companionship, potty breaks, walks, and attention throughout the day. Your dog won’t be left alone for long periods and will have plenty of opportunities for interaction and care. I currently live in a pet-friendly apartment community with a dog park located downstairs, and I also have reliable transportation to take dogs to nearby parks and walking areas if appropriate. A little about me: I studied Public Health during both my undergraduate and graduate education, earned my Master’s degree in Global Health from Harvard , and currently work in the health industry. That sound unrelated, but honestly it’s shaped how I approach responsibility: carefully, consistently, and always with the other person’s (or pup’s!) needs in mind. I know how much it means to find someone you can really trust with your dog. I’d love to meet you and your pup and go from there! I am available Monday through Friday from 9am to 9pm, and on weekends from 10am to 12pm and 3pm to 5pm. I'm happy to accommodate special needs outside of these hours to ensure your pet receives the best care possible! In my home, I can comfortably accommodate small dogs/medium size dogs ensuring they have a safe, clean, and loving environment. I provide plenty of playtime, regular walks, and constant supervision to make sure your pet feels secure and happy.
“This was the last daycare I had with Jennifer before my sweet elderly Xander passed. Xander had come to like Jennifer and over time, started to show excitement when he saw her. So this final rating was given by the dog. Xander had many medical needs and Jennifer accepted all of them. Xander passed yesterday and I contacted her to inform her and thank her. I didn't mention this but I was feeling regret about not checking the box asking for pictures all day long. SHE STARTED SENDING ME PICTURES. I"M CRYING BIG TEARS THANK YOU.”
“Michelle is great to work with. My pup returned content and tired, which indicates he had a good day. The updates and photos provided throughout the day were appreciated. Highly recommended!”
About: Since a child, home has always been made complete with pets, and that is where a genuine love for animals began within me. I’ve been around different breads and ages, from shitzu to pit bull and puppies to seniors, which gave me a broader understanding in the proper care (feeding structure, walking/exercise, pet proofing environments, etc.) and comfort required for each individual pet. The years of experience that I’ve had with these incredible fur babies has led me to ultimately pursuing my passion in helping others care for theirs! I am currently working from home, leaving me with an overall open and flexible schedule. Pet daycare is available Monday-Friday until 6pm (weekends can be further discussed). Also, due to involvement with my home church, Sundays I typically have to leave for a couple hours in the morning, for anyone interested in pet boarding availability. My home is a pet-proofed, cozy house with a spacious, fenced-in backyard, located near a park only a few minutes away walking distance. There aren’t any children nor any pets at home, creating plenty of space for your pet to safely and freely enjoy! While caring for your pets, I always prioritize following their set schedules as well, in regard to their feeding, exercise, potty, rest, and medication (if necessary). I want every owner to feel peace while they are away, so I make sure to provide consistent communication and photos/videos updates throughout the stay!
“Absolutely AMAZING experience! Our dog was so well cared for and clearly loved every minute. We got great updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind. It’s such a relief finding someone we trust completely with our pup. Highly recommend, we will definitely be booking again and again!”
About: I have cared for other people's dogs--roommates, friends, neighbors--since childhood, many decades! I've lived with cats, dogs and birds. I said goodbye to my rescue Westie of almost 17 years during 2025, and I’m not ready for another long-term pet commitment yet. I puppy trained her (with trainer) from 4 months and provided senior care for the last few years. I am very patient when meeting new animal souls, allowing them to come to me when they’re ready. I have been taking shelter dogs on Afternoon Adventures and have been successful with helping to train dogs in my care. I am working part time and have a flexible schedule, and now that I'm pet-less, I am available, even on short notice. I have been going on walks/hikes in our beautiful parks (over 2 miles) and would prefer some four-legged company. I am very good at following your instructions, respectful of routines and choices you make, and sensitive to furry companions' needs. I'll send you lots of pics! I will board low-maintenance/energy pets in my home, not puppies or kittens.
“Andrew is top rated for a reason! Totally worth the cost. He’s got a great space perfect for a dog to free roam and family all committed to the care of your little one. Professional, accommodating, attentive, and great with updates / communication. New to the area and was nervous leaving my little one with a new care giver for an extended period for work travel. Andrew gave me tons of peace of mind. Definitely recommend!”
About: I had adopted a stray cat that has followed home one day. I named him Fishie and took care of the cat for 1 year before I moved out from my parents house. I trained Fishie to walk on a leash outside and often visit him at my parents house every month. I am currently working from home full-time so I am available to cat sit for a majority of the day as long as there is internet. I can also just drop by to play with the cat, feed them, and clean there litter if you would only like quick visits. I live in a house with 4 other roommates so someone is almost always home. We also currently have 1 small dog named Sqj. She is very friendly with other animals, but will occasionally bark at a new human. Sqj has also lived with a cat and has gotten along well with them.
“Cooper loved her time over at Gabriela's house! We ended up picking her up later than expected, and her and her family was so sweet and understanding. We'll definitely be using her again!!”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats, and really care about taking good care of pets. I also did a dog grooming course, so I know how to do that, as well. In a previous job, one of my duties was taking care of a French bulldog. I am fully available throughout the day and can also administer medication to pets when needed. Pet care requires attention and dedication, and I am committed to providing the care they need. I am available for multiple daily visits to make sure your pet is comfortable, cared for, and never feels alone, although I do not offer overnight stays.
“Rosemeri was a great dog sitter for our little Betty. She kept us updated with pictures and video of our pup while we were out for the day. I would definitely recommend her.”
“Natasha was very accommodating with our last minute request. She took care of my 2 labs and the male had health issues the day before (heat stroke) so he needed special care and she took amazing care of both of them. I will book her again for tomorrow! We are visiting NYC.”
“Thanks for taking care of cheese yesterday. He is a bit of anxious dog, and I appreciate your patience to make him feel comfortable. I look forward to more sessions!”
“Archie loved his stay with Arley; he had fun at the dog park and was very tired by the end of the day. Arley was very responsive and provided pictures and updates throughout the day. Definitely recommend !”

“Frankie is absolutely amazing! My dog Nardo had a wonderful time on every walk with him. He always came home happy, relaxed, and tired in the best way—clearly well-exercised and content. One of the cutest things was how Nardo would wait by the door for Frankie, tail wagging with excitement. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing that my dog, who is basically my son, was in such caring and trustworthy hands. Frankie is not only great with dogs but also a genuinely awesome person. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog walker!”

“Jenny was great with our dig, Riley. She asked lots of smart questions to be sure Riley was getting the best care and staying on his routine. She sent photos and was very accommodating when out flight delay resulted in a later than expected pick up. I highly recommend Jenny and will certainly call on her again.”
“We went to Newyork and nearby places for a vacation. Neide was an absolute blessing to take care my little baby Leo. He is a momma’s boy and doesn’t like to stay away from me. We both love to believe that he is out of my womb 😂. Neide did a fantastic job in taking care of him and giving him the love that he was missing while we were away. I wish I have Neide near my home so I can do more vacations that I do. She is absolute best and 💯 I will reach out to her if I am around the area”
“Let me start by saying this was my first time using Rover ever. Andrew was so helpful and reassuring and explained everything to me. Additionally, while I was away he kept me up to date with texts and pictures of Finn. Finn had a great time with Andrew and you can just tell Andrew knew exactly how to best care for my puppy. Thank you so much!!”
“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!”
“Lifu was great with Lily, seems Lily had a good time staying over with her. Very good communication and punctual on drop off and pick up times, would recommend to other dog parents!”
“This was the FIRST time I was able to leave my dogs anywhere and actually not worry or stress about how things may be going. Everything from the house space to the family, it’s all just perfect! And I’m extremely picky! So ya just a great experience in every way. I wish all sitters were like this one. Definitely recommend her and I would gladly pay even more than she charges. Totally worth the peace of mind. 10 stars!!”
“From the second we met Joni I knew our dog Poppy would be in great hands. Poppy immediately felt comfortable with Joni and didn't even look back as we walked away during the drop off. Joni was in touch with us with pictures and messages about what Poppy was up to several times a day. We would recommend Joni to anyone who is looking for a loving and reliable pet sitter. Thank you Joni!!!!!”
“Karollyne was great with Bizzle. She was kind and understanding and really managed to build trust with Bizzle in a short period of time. Bizzle is a senior dog and just needs gentle care and understanding which Karollyne did a great job! Highly recommended.”
“Spike had an awesome time during his stay. The sitter provided so many pictures of him enjoying himself with his new sitter and his dog Brooklyn. He can’t wait to come back and visit!!!”
“We had a wonderful experience boarding our puppy with Ayush. From the start, communication was excellent, and we felt completely at ease leaving our puppy in his care. He provided regular updates, photos, and videos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our puppy came home happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious that Ayush genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs and treated our puppy like part of the family. We especially appreciated our puppy having new friends to play with (Ayush’s dogs). We would absolutely book with Ayush again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy person to board with.”
“Eduardo was an excellent dog sitter for my Cabot. He really provides a warm caring environment and I look forward to leaving my dog again knowing Eduardo will be taking good care of him. The picture updates and overall communication was very appreciated. ”

I would highly recommend Ivette and will definitelt utilize her services again in the future.”

About: I'm a extremely nuturing individual and have had the immense pleasure of caring for pets kittens to seniors/puppies to seniors for over 25 years. I'm very hands on and i very meticulously make sure they are both comforted as well as comfortable. You will find no one more skilled in being your pets caregiver. I'm currently not working! So I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups/kittens! I'm available for boarding weekdays all day. And weekends after 3. I can take your pups to a dog park and play as I do not have a fenced yard. Also I have a play room for kitty.
“It has been a long time since I've had to board my pets with someone I didn't know. It is hard enough to leave our fur babies in the care of a friend or family member, but it is an more nerve-wracking experience to place them into the care of a stranger. Michael assuaged those fears before we even met him! He asked all the right questions about our boy's needs from the get-go (he's a large senior dog with arthritis) and gave me frequent updates and pictures of how he was doing. He walked our boy judiciously and gave him all of his food and medications just as we would. He was wonderful. It was such a relief knowing that our boy was in such capable, caring hands. We're in town for work but are lucky enough to have weekends off. We picked our boy up today and he looked so happy and healthy. Michael did such a great job that we're going to utilize his services again next week. I just can't say enough good things about him.”
“Orlando and Christina were absolute lifesavers when it came to caring for Moose! They were incredibly attentive, sending daily updates and adorable pictures that truly put our minds at ease while away. Their genuine love and dedication made us feel like our pup was in the best hands possible. I can't recommend them enough for anyone in need of top-notch pet sitting services! Thank you again Orlando & Christina!!”
