“This was my puppy’s first time not sorting at home since I got her in November and I was terrified. Maisha offered a video call, showed me her home and where my pup would sleep, and answered all 800 of my questions. This is my first pet ever so I have no idea what to do, bring, or expect and Maisha made me feel so comfortable. Safe to say, I’ve found my dog sitter for life💜”

Having 20+ years of professional pet care experience, giving owners confidence that their pets are in knowledgeable hands Paws N Claws Pet Service is a full-time part of my daily and weekly routine.

Every pet is treated with patience, kindness, and the same level of care I would give my own.
“Enrique is excellent! He was incredibly caring and attentive to Joey’s needs. Every day, we received updates without asking. He also proactively asked about Joey’s preferences and routine. From the wear on Joey’s nails, it’s clear that he got long and consistent walks every day! We’re so grateful for the care and attention Joey received — highly recommend!”
“Ivanna was amazing with my baby and provided reliable and professional dog boarding in the Union NJ area. She created a safe and caring environment and followed all of her care instructions perfectly.

I highly recommend Ivanna to anyone looking for trustworthy overnight dog boarding or a caring pet sitter, and I will definitely book with her again.”
“Rochelle was wonderful for my kitty Zeno. He seemed sad to leave ?. She sent photos and gave him his daily vitamins, and even bought new food for him when he started turning down his own food. The environment seemed calm and quiet for my very timid old cat. She cleaned out his litter and food dish and packed up his things when it was time to go. I would definitely trust her with my kitty again!”
“I had a great experience with Ruth! She took excellent care of Valentino and kept me updated throughout his stay, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Valentino was very happy and well cared for.

About: As a cat owner myself, I have 5 years of hands-on experience caring for cats and understand that every cat has their own personality, routine, and boundaries. I’m comfortable with feeding, litter box care, playtime, grooming, and administering medications when needed. I pay close attention to small changes in behavior, appetite, bathroom habits, and energy levels. I’m also patient with shy or cautious cats and always let them warm up to me at their own pace. I’ll keep you updated while you’re away and treat your cat with the same care and attention I give my own.

About: Unfortunately, I do not have professional experience as a pet sitter, but I have enjoyed playing with pets since childhood and have a special fondness for them. Whenever possible, I play with, walk, and help care for the pets of my friends, family, and partners. I currently work part-time with other apps, so I don't have schedule flexibility. So I'll have plenty of time to play with your pets. I am available to stay at your home and visit your pet while you are away, if necessary. I live in an apartment that doesn't allow pets, but I am available and flexible enough to stay at your home and look after your pet—feeding, walking, and providing all the care they need and deserve, along with plenty of affection and attention, of course. I am very organized and meticulous about every detail.
“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!”
“Jade was incredible with my cat Daphne! She sent lots of pictures and videos and gave great updates. She spent lots of quality time with her and I came home to a very content kitty :)”
“Lehan took good care of my baby and she was very kind to accommodate the last minute request. We really appreciate it! She also followed our care instructions! I recommend booking with her and will definitely rebook!”
“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!”
About: The birthday that I was blessed with my first puppy at age 10 is one of my fondest memories. I knew from an instant that these were much more than pets, but rather treasured companions who deserve to be treated as such. My love for these pets only grew as I was entrusted by neighbors, friends, and family members to provide care for their buddies. When it comes to walking, bathing, feeding or any other interaction, every pup has their own unique personality, and it's our job as owners to understand them so we can provide the best possible care and love for them. I have experience in dogs of all sizes and personalities, from fluffy and friendly to tiny and timid. If you'd like to show your little friends some extra love and attention throughout the day, I'd love to work with you and meet your pup! I'm currently working part time in media, and my flexible schedule allows for me to give your pups all the love and attention they need at almost any hour! I'm available for walks whenever the sun is up, and in-home visits to work around your schedule! My home is arranged to provide the most possible comfort for your pup! With an open floor plan that is sprinkled with minimalistic furniture, there is plenty of space for you rover to roam and play! I'll be sure that they're fed to your schedule and get lots of love and attention
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).

“Aishan & Bhumi accomodated my same day request to watch my dog while I had to run a few errands. I really appreciate their timely communication and taking such good care of Fidel. I would trust them to watch him again.”
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.”
“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.”

I have long lasting experience taking care of dogs, more than 10 years. I can take walk dogs after 3 pm every day. I am a teacher, and I currently work every morning until 3 pm. I would walk dogs after 3:30 pm to make my day full. I would follow any direction the pet owner gives me. I would make sure the pet is comfortable and most of all I would keep everybody and everything safe.

About: I've been caring for dogs since I was 6 years old. One of my beloved dogs was part of my family for 20 wonderful years, giving me firsthand experience with every stage of a dog's life—from energetic puppyhood to senior care.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years for family and friends, and I’m excited to welcome new furry guests into my home. I provide a calm, loving environment where every dog is treated like family. My sweet Yorkshire Terrier, Nina, enjoys meeting new friends and helps make visiting dogs feel right at home. To ensure every pup has enough space and individual attention, I only accept dogs up to 15 pounds. I work from home full-time, so I’m able to provide consistent care and supervision throughout the day. I can easily follow your dog’s regular schedule for meals, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and plenty of affection. My flexible routine allows me to give each guest the attention they deserve instead of leaving them home alone for long periods. Your dog’s safety and happiness are my highest priorities. I live in a quiet, walkable neighborhood that’s perfect for daily strolls, and my home is clean, secure, and designed to help small dogs feel comfortable. Because my space is best suited for smaller pups, I only host dogs up to 15 pounds, ensuring everyone has room to relax and play safely. I’ll treat your pet as if they were my own and keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay so you can enjoy complete peace of mind.

“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.”
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.

“Karollyne was so great with my two fur babies. She is reliable and with my busy schedule and last minute changes her afternoon schedule was always flexible with mine. She took such great care of my babies and anyone looking for a sitter will be lucky to have her.”

“Had such a wonderful experience with Johara as a dog sitter! From the very beginning, the attentiveness and genuine care for my 2 dogs was evident. Time was devoted to understand each of their personalities and routines, which made me feel completely at ease knowing they were in such capable hands. I especially appreciated the thoughtful touches, especially the special treats—it was such a sweet gesture, and my pups absolutely loved it! I was also kept updated with frequent messages, and photos, which gave much peace of mind while away. I will happily book again. Highly recommended, Johara!”
“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!!”
“Eduardo is the person I can trust with my dog. I was on vacation and my dog overstayed at his home but he never complained and understood my situation. He is generous and responsible dog sitter. Highly recommend him for either short or long dog sitting service!”
“I’m usually very nervous about leaving Benji, he’s wary of strangers and takes a long time to warm up. That’s why I was genuinely surprised at how quickly he trusted Akshay. While I was away, Akshay was consistently responsive and communicative, which gave me real peace of mind. He was also extremely flexible and worked with me on dropoff/ pickup, which made everything easier. It’s obvious he truly cares about animals and has a lot of empathy; Sirus’s excellent manners are a reflection of that. When Benji got injured, it was heartwarming to see how much Akshay truly cared. He continued to check in even weeks after the booking ended to see how he was doing. I find it difficult to find people with his level of transparency who build a lot of trust. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again.”
“Michael was fantastic - i have a Chihuahua who is slow to warm up and she loved staying here. Was snuggling in the same bed as their dog Bread in just one night. She even got a bit sick and Michael was super on top of it and checked to make sure she was ok and kept a close eye of her. Sent lots of pics and great communication. Thanks michael!”
“We love Ahmed!!! He takes excellent care of our pup Ginger. She gets walks and lots of playtime! I highly recommend Ahmed for overnights and long stays. We will definitely use his services again. He is professional and truly cares about our pup!”
“Cathy did a phenomenal job watching Vida. She was always responsive and accommodating. She took excellent care of Vida, and I would absolutely use her again.”

We are huge dog lovers and treat all little guests as part of the fam! We provide constant attention, playtime, and regular potty breaks. We follow each dog’s feeding and exercise routine closely and keep owners updated with daily photos and messages. We live in a clean, dog-friendly apartment with plenty of space for lounging and playing.
