“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Jessica! While I was traveling, my dog required unexpected medical attention, and Jessica went above and beyond to ensure she was well cared for. She immediately recognized the issue, took her to the vet, and kept me updated throughout the process, which gave me such peace of mind. Jessica treated my dog as if she were her own, providing excellent care, administering medications as instructed, and showering her with love and attention during her recovery. It's clear that Jessica is not only reliable and professional but also incredibly compassionate and dedicated. I am so grateful for her help and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Jessica, for everything!”
“Lulu and I met Ji and there was an instantly connection. As she had never met Ji and was in a different environment, Lulu seemed content. Ji kept me updated on Lulu’s adjustment, which stated was going well. I truly appreciate Ji being able to take care of Lulu on such a short notice. Hopefully in the future if needs arrives Ji will be able to take care of Lulu again.”
“Bhavani handles puppies like a pet owner with care and affection. Bhavani took great care of Benny. She regularly sent pics and videos, which was very reassuring. She spent time playing with him and made sure he was well cared for throughout. I especially appreciated how she helped Benny socialize—he was happy and comfortable. Would definitely recommend her as a dogsitter.”
“This is now the 4th time Ekaterina and her family have baby sat for my girl, Loretta. Loretta is very nervous and has really bad separation anxiety. But Ekaterina and her family are always so wonderful with her! With them, I never have to worry about Loretta when my family and I go away; she is in perfect hands! I get constant updates and pictures. She’s taken for walks constantly and I get updated on it all. Ekaterina, I say this all the time, but you and your family are such a blessing to us! You are our forever sitter! ♥️”
“Margarita was great with Blossom. Blossom is a bit timid but Margarita made her feel so comfortable. Margarita sent plenty of updates, photos and videos, which kept our mind at ease. Will definitely be using Margarita again!”
“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!”
“We can’t recommend Melodie enough! She took such wonderful care of our senior dogs while we were away. She made us feel comfortable from the start. She was incredibly attentive, followed our instructions, and sent daily updates with photos that made us smile. It was clear our dogs were relaxed and well cared for. We came home to happy pups, and we are so grateful for her kindness and professionalism. It is clear Melodie loves animals and treats them like her own. Highly recommend!”
“This was the first time since my boys were born in 2018 that they were dogsat by anyone else other than family and it was perfect. Bonnie and her family were fantastic. They kept my boys comfortable while I was away for a week and kept in constant touch to give updates and adorable photos so I could see how they were doing throughout the day. 100% would rebook in the future. Thanks Bonnie and Yee!”

“This was the first time we have used Rover for overnight boarding our 5 year old rescue (puppy mill momma) - Lina. Lisa and Albert and their family were so wonderful with her. Sending pictures and updating us on her eating and sleeping. Lisa even made special meal to entice Lina to eat. Our little pupper can be anxious, and Lisa was very supportive. We have a much longer family vacation upcoming, and know that our Lina will be in the best hands. Thank you Lisa and family!!!!”
“Oh my God, what should I say about this wonderful person, ISBATH, who looked after our Ace. Our dog is a single master dog and really a protector type. I was little hesitant to take him to meet Ms. Isbath. I don’t know, she may be some kind of magical approach. I never heard a single growl from Ace, which was really surprising. The day I dropped him to Isbath’s house, gradually Ace become a family member. The day I dropped Ace, Ms. Isbath send me plenty of photos and videos to update the boarding. My family and I are very much happy to Isbath and her family to look after our Ace and once we picked him up from Ace, he joined back to our family. I am sure that Ace also got a very excited and awesome vacation. We will definitely recommend Isbath and family. Once again thank you Isbath and Thank you Rover. May God Bless us all.”
“Jessie stayed with Tynesha and her family for four days. This was the first time she stayed with someone other than a family member. She sent me photos everyday and I could see that Jessie was happy and bring well taken care of. I will definitely use her again.”
“My wife and I so greatly appreciate Lupe's exceptional care of my 2 year old dog, Roopert (Roo) during my first Rover experience, which was an entire week! We are accustomed to leaving Roo with close family or friends, so I was initially apprehensive about Rover. However, Lupe's outstanding communication and daily updates, including plenty of photos and videos eased our worries. With Roopert weighing almost 70 lbs and bursting with energy, I truly appreciated Lupe's dedication to spending quality time playing with him, including fetch in his spacious, fully fenced yard, and just his overall competence as it pertained to dog behavior, and the needs associated. When I picked up Roopert this morning, he looked fantastic – clean, content, and absolutely joyful. Lupe's top-notch service and genuine care for our boy are so greatly appreciated. I wholeheartedly recommend Lupe to anyone seeking trustworthy and loving care for their furry friend. Thanks, Lupe!”
“Ryan did a great job with Spenser. Daily outings, regular updates, and plenty of photos, we always knew our dog was in good hands. When our trip ran four days longer than planned, Ryan didn't skip a beat. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog. Would recommend him to any dog owner without hesitation.”
“As first-time users of dogsitting (we just adopted our 8-year old Beau 2 years ago), we couldn't have been better served by Monica and her family. They have a wonderful set-up for dog care - big, multilevel home, huge fenced backyard, and very pet-friendly throughout, along with a dear, patient older dog who is very happy sharing her "den" with her visiting buddies. Monica shared regular photos and reports, and was so clearly loving and enthusiastic about caring for our guy - giving him his daily medication and welcoming all of my (um, very detailed) instructions about his routine. We will definitely be repeat customers.”
“My pups loved Jessica! It was my first time using Rover for our 9 day trip and everything went so smooth. My mini doodle is usually skittish but he went right to her and from the daily photos we received, he loved cuddling and staying by her side. He had plenty of other small doggies to play with and get his energy out. Thanks Jessica for making boarding not so scary!”

“This is the second time we are using Sara’s service, so this review is for our previous experience as well as this experience with Sara as our cat sitter: Sara is not just a cat sitter, she’s a care taker in general. She would keep the place clean, spend time with our cat Titan, send us prompt updates with pics and vids of Titan. She communicates very well and is a very kind person. We left a list of things to do for Titan’s care - she went above and beyond. We trust her so much and she is the ideal person you’d leave your precious animals with. You can always count on Sara!”
“Elaine was amazing!! She sent such great updates on our fur baby and played so much with him. We knew we / our cat was in good hands with her while we were away.”

About: I’m a passionate dog lover and proud owner of two furry friends: a Shih Tzu and a Chihuahua. With plenty of experience caring for dogs, I understand their needs and love giving them the attention they deserve. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll or an energetic play session, I’m here to ensure your pup has a great time. Let’s make their walk a joyful adventure! As a college athlete and basketball player, I have a busy and demanding schedule. Balancing classes, practice, and games requires careful planning, but I make sure to carve out dedicated time for pet care because I genuinely enjoy it. Walking and sitting with dogs provides a refreshing break from my routine, helping me unwind and refocus. I typically schedule pet care around my practices, classes, and study sessions, ensuring I can provide the attention and energy every pet deserves. It’s a rewarding way to manage my time while balancing academics, athletics, and my love for animals. When caring for pets through Rover, I focus on creating a comfortable, safe, and fun environment—whether in my home or at a client’s home. For dog walking, I make sure each walk is tailored to the dog’s needs, energy level, and personality. I choose safe, dog-friendly routes and keep the walks engaging with some playtime and treats (if allowed by the owner). For dog sitting in a client’s home, I maintain their routines as closely as possible, ensuring they feel secure and at ease. I provide companionship, regular feeding, and playtime, and I keep the space clean and orderly. As a college athlete with a busy schedule, I’m great at managing my time, which means pets always get the care and attention they deserve.

About: I have been an avid animal lover since I received my first puppy as a child. I taught my beloved spaniel how to sit and lay down, and he taught me patience and responsibility. I cared for him until he sadly left us at 17 years old. My experience taught me that our fur babies are here for such a short time, and they deserve the absolute best we can give them. I have extended this mindset into my care of several other pets throughout my life including my four cats and bonus fur babies that I pet sit. My current clients range from small to large breed dogs. I have gained extensive experience with senior pets and the special needs that come with them as well as pets with medical needs. As a college student working part time, I hope to expand my business and do what I love full time. I currently work 9-5 part-time, leaving me with plenty of free time including weekends. I am flexible in my schedule and availability, and always strive to provide pets in my care with as much attention and care as they would receive in their homes. I have a fenced in yard and plenty of indoor space. I have four friendly cats of my own but available space to keep pets in my care separate in the case that they are less then enthusiastic about cats. I offer in house pet sitting as well to those who prefer their fur babies to remain in their own environment. I have a valid NJ Driver's license and a reliable vehicle large enough to transport big breeds. Additionally I have plenty of experience administering medications and treatments safely.

“Dulce has been the best dog walker for our 150 pound dog, Ralph. She has open communication, always on time, sends pictures and updates!! We have been using her every week for his walks and he LOVES her. He gets so excited to see his buddy..highly recommend Dulce!!!!!”
“Trisha is absolutely wonderful! My 3 dogs (a pit bull, Ridgeback and chihuahua) loved her instantly. I never had someone else care for my dogs as long as I've had them so I was a bit nervous but Trisha made me feel so comfortable. I work 12 hour days and my husband left the country for a month and I would have been lost without her! 5 days a week at noon and she was always in time and sent photos! She took the time to give one of my dogs (who had to be put to sleep that month) so much extra love and attention because I couldn't be there. I thought I had to make the decision alone but she was there to help me through it, comfort me and check up on me. She goes above and beyond for her clients and their babies. She's the best!”

Would definitely recommend her as a dogsitter.”

I get constant updates and pictures. She’s taken for walks constantly and I get updated on it all. Ekaterina, I say this all the time, but you and your family are such a blessing to us! You are our forever sitter! ♥️”
“We can’t recommend Melodie enough! She took such wonderful care of our senior dogs while we were away. She made us feel comfortable from the start. She was incredibly attentive, followed our instructions, and sent daily updates with photos that made us smile. It was clear our dogs were relaxed and well cared for. We came home to happy pups, and we are so grateful for her kindness and professionalism. It is clear Melodie loves animals and treats them like her own. Highly recommend!”
“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.”
“Oh my God, what should I say about this wonderful person, ISBATH, who looked after our Ace. Our dog is a single master dog and really a protector type. I was little hesitant to take him to meet Ms. Isbath. I don’t know, she may be some kind of magical approach. I never heard a single growl from Ace, which was really surprising. The day I dropped him to Isbath’s house, gradually Ace become a family member. The day I dropped Ace, Ms. Isbath send me plenty of photos and videos to update the boarding. My family and I are very much happy to Isbath and her family to look after our Ace and once we picked him up from Ace, he joined back to our family. I am sure that Ace also got a very excited and awesome vacation. We will definitely recommend Isbath and family. Once again thank you Isbath and Thank you Rover. May God Bless us all.”
“My wife and I so greatly appreciate Lupe's exceptional care of my 2 year old dog, Roopert (Roo) during my first Rover experience, which was an entire week! We are accustomed to leaving Roo with close family or friends, so I was initially apprehensive about Rover. However, Lupe's outstanding communication and daily updates, including plenty of photos and videos eased our worries. With Roopert weighing almost 70 lbs and bursting with energy, I truly appreciated Lupe's dedication to spending quality time playing with him, including fetch in his spacious, fully fenced yard, and just his overall competence as it pertained to dog behavior, and the needs associated. When I picked up Roopert this morning, he looked fantastic – clean, content, and absolutely joyful. Lupe's top-notch service and genuine care for our boy are so greatly appreciated. I wholeheartedly recommend Lupe to anyone seeking trustworthy and loving care for their furry friend. Thanks, Lupe!”
“Ryan did a great job with Spenser. Daily outings, regular updates, and plenty of photos, we always knew our dog was in good hands. When our trip ran four days longer than planned, Ryan didn't skip a beat. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog. Would recommend him to any dog owner without hesitation.”
“As first-time users of dogsitting (we just adopted our 8-year old Beau 2 years ago), we couldn't have been better served by Monica and her family. They have a wonderful set-up for dog care - big, multilevel home, huge fenced backyard, and very pet-friendly throughout, along with a dear, patient older dog who is very happy sharing her "den" with her visiting buddies. Monica shared regular photos and reports, and was so clearly loving and enthusiastic about caring for our guy - giving him his daily medication and welcoming all of my (um, very detailed) instructions about his routine. We will definitely be repeat customers.”
About: Hi, I’m AnnMarie! I’ve been caring for animals since I was young, but really started understanding the love and care they need when I got my first cat and first dog at 7 years old. I grew up with Labrador retrievers, a blue front Amazon parrot, cats, frogs, fish, hermit crabs, and some others I’m definitely forgetting as I write this. I currently have a dog named Maple, a spunky, confident, and affectionate 1.5 year old corgi who would love a few more friends like your dog or cat! She grew up in a home with a ton of other dogs and cats and is always up for playdates and sleepovers. I’m capable of providing whatever your animal needs - a long (or short) walk, playtime, snuggles on the couch, meals, and commands/trick reinforcement. I also have experience administering medications to dogs and cats, including eye drops, and can manage other normally challenging health conditions or issues. I currently work full time but have availability in the evenings (usually after 6pm) on weekdays for drop in visits or walks, and most weekends are completely free for boarding, day care, drop ins, or walks! I frequently update my calendar to give clients the best idea of my availability. If you don’t see something/the dates you’re looking for, please reach out and we can discuss. I have an extremely friendly dog to keep yours company, but if the preference would be separation between yours and mine, that works perfectly fine too! I have a spacious apartment with multiple bedrooms, and while I don’t have a yard, I do have access to a rooftop dog run! I’m also a short drive from a huge park, where I frequently walk my dog, otherwise I keep walks local.
“We had left our 5 year old fur baby under Lakshmi’s care for the weekend , he was very well take care of , Lakshmi took all the required information , she was very meticulous in providing updates during Bentleys stay and took great care of him. Would highly recommend Lakshmi for anyone looking for a great home away from Home for their fur baby while you are out , know that your baby wil be well taken care of.”
“Charlene was absolutely amazing! Her home and backyard is a perfect set up to host pets. Charlene loved and cared for my girls as though they were her own. Will definitely be using her again soon!”
“Nan was great! Would recommend to anyone looking to board there pet. Was able to book with her last minute with no problem. She really cared well for my young puppy, kept in touch the entire time, and sent pictures and videos. My puppy loved her! Will absolutely be using Nan again to care for my dog when I'm away.”
“Raheem was great. My dog’s breed is known to be incredibly stubborn, but that proved to not be an issue. Felt very confident that my boy was under good care as I got regular updates. Very chill experience and had absolutely no worries while I was across the country.”
About: I love animals and have experience working with and sitting for a wide range of them, including dogs, cats, and small or exotic animals. I myself have owned over twenty parrots (currently have two in the aviary!) and have extensive experience with fishkeeping — I have four cycled, walstad fish and shrimp tanks! I can walk your dog, clean your cat’s litter box, and even do water changes for your fish if needed! Anything to make sure your little guys are well cared for! I’m a graduate student who will be free over the summer, so my schedule is flexible until late August. I can make myself and my home available as needed. I live in a townhome that features a large, lush, and open neighborhood to walk your dogs in. My home has two floors; the first floor is where your pet will stay. When your pet is in my home, they are treated like members of my family. They will be fed, walked, and enriched on your schedule, and will be allowed to sit on the couch and even sleep in my bed at nights if comfortable. I take great care to ensure that your pet’s stay is comfortable and fun-filled. In my home, I currently have two budgies in a large cage and two betta fish, each in 5-10 gallon tanks. The parrots are allowed to free fly for most of the day, but they will be put away or kept caged when your pets are being boarded. When I am in your home, I cultivate the utmost respect. I try not to disturb or move anything that’s not necessary. I’ll make use of only what’s given to me with regards to caring for your pet, and leave everything else exactly how I found it.
“Meet and greet went so well i felt very comfortable leaving my baby with her. The overall stay was great, very friendly and caring towards peanut, sent pictures and updates (even bathed him) from the pictures i could see he was very happy, which made our time away from him more easy to enjoy knowing he was in good hands. Will definitely use Claudia again and highly recommend.”
“Thank you jose <3 barbie had so much fun that she didnt want to leave , thank you again , you are a charm and will definitely leave barbie again soon with you ! Blessings”
“Yanina was so welcoming. Thank you so much for taking care of my little princess! She sent pictures and kept us informed of how she was adjusting. I came back to a happy, energized puppy with good behavior. Definitely will rebook her all the time. Thank you!”
“Lineth did an amazing job taking care of our cat! She kept us updated with plenty of pictures, and it was clear our cat felt so comfortable and happy with her. Lineth was so thoughtful and attentive that we never had to worry while we were away. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
