“Denise is awesome! My little Chi was not so great the first time I left her but Denise was willing to work with her and the 2nd time she stayed with Denise there were no issues, she was very happy to stay there. I really appreciate Denise's willingness to work with her. She has a lovely yard also and my little girl loves it!”
“We are so grateful for Sterlin! She accepted extremely last minute on a holiday when we needed someone to watch our dog, Reggie, during our family beach day trip to Ocean City, NJ. She welcomed us inside right away, introduced Reggie to her other dogs, and helped him acclimate quickly to the new environment. Throughout the day, she sent us thoughtful photo updates of Reggie smiling and playing, which was so reassuring. Her home is also conveniently located just off the exit, making drop-off and pick-up easy. What else can we say—we’ll absolutely be using Sterlin again whenever we’re in town. Thank you, Sterlin!”
“Ashlee made the whole process super easy and comfortable. She kept us updated with pictures almost every day and I know our Charlie had a great “vacation” from us :-) Will definitely use her again soon!”
“Marci and her family were the perfect match for watching our iggies. They have a beautiful big yard and know how to care for quirky breeds! Marci updated us with photos of the dogs and updates every morning and night. We would absolutely book with them in the future!”
“I definitely recommend Michael for boarding. He watched our puppy for 4 days, and he sent pictures every day. I could tell she had a blast playing with the other dogs. Michael is super nice, and the whole process was very easy.”
“Kateri was absolutely fantastic for our dog penny! She took wonderful care of her, and sent daily photos and videos, which i really appreciated, because penny is my baby and best friend and love of my life, lol. Penny was sad to leave!!”
“Mckenna and her husband were AMAZING! We took a trip to Orlando and they watched our girl for 4 nights and we couldn’t be happier. Dolly had the time of her life and she will definitely be back!”
“Victoria was absolutely amazing with my pup! She sent updates the entire time to ensure comfortability. My puppy had so much fun staying with her and we will for sure use Victoria in the future!”
“Kelley was a great sitter and allowed us to book the last minute, only a couple days prior. She was very attentive and quickly responded to messages. Our German Shepherd loved her stay at Kelley's place. The yard is more than spacious, and our dog loved playing and running around there. She had her own room with a dog bed and a water fountain, and was provided with play time and all the care she needed. Highly recommended, and will definitely use Kelley's services anytime in the future.”
“Our dog seemed very happy under this couple's care. The couple is sweet and took him to along to dinner at a family member's house with a fenced yard. The video showed he was having a great time! Will book with them again.”
“James took such good care of my weim boy! My boy isn’t always the easiest dog to handle, and he can be high maintenance, and James made it seem like he was a breeze! Quickly Responsive, followed any/all care instructions. So happy to have peace of mind knowing my dog is well taken care of when he is there.”
“Tyler was friendly and professional to both me and Bailey. Bailey is a active 2 yr. old and Tyler seamed up to the challenge. He also has ample room on his property for outdoor activites, yet he still took our Labrador Retriever to the dog park. I give Tyler A+. If the need arises again Tyler will get the NOD.”
“Patricia was awesome! She kept me updated on my Chloe throughout the day. Chloe seemed happy and well entertained with Patricia. Thank you for taking such good care of Chloe for the weekend 💕”
“Rebecca and Ozzie were outstanding while watching our dog. Its obvious they both show a passion for animals and we couldn't be happier. We'll definitely try to book with them next time our needs require a fog sitter.”
“Our frenchie (Homer) stayed with Caroline over Labor Day Weekend and she was great! Very communicative and she also sent us pictures of Homer throughout the weekend which was very thoughtful. Drop off and pick up were easy. When we picked him up we could tell he didn’t want to leave and he had such a good time with Caroline and her family. We would highly recommend Caroline and if we lived closer would use her more often to watch Homer.”
“Dogs came back in excellent condition. Extra food and treats were returned. Fenced yard and friendly dogs in the home. Andrew kept us posted while we were away. Highly recommend.”
“Patricia took very good care of our doggie that boarded with her. We were lucky to find her on a short notice and lucky that we felt immediately reassured that he would be in good hands. An added bonus was her own sweet and happy dog who became a buddy to ours quickly. I recommend Patricia to anyone looking for a home away from home for their canine family members.”
“Jared was superb! He took our dog to the beach! And, we got photos everyday. Communication was speedy and he was flexible with sorting out pick up and drop off times.”
“Debbie was so great with Tillie. She played outside tossing her the ball, which Tillie loves. Her yard is beautiful and safe with a high fence and lush green grass. Even a shady gazebo for lounging. Debbie laughed at Tillie’s huge bed and crate, but took it in stride. She is a super nice person and embraced our slightly spoiled girl.”

“Megan did a fantastic job. She arrived right on time, was consistent with her walks and time spent with the dogs. I always got a detailed report card and cute pic of the dogs. She was fantastic.”
“Lauren visited my cats over a weekend away. She followed instructions I left, took it upon herself to change the water bowl I left for the outside critters during a heat wave, and won over my scaredy cat. I am very pleased and will book her again.”
“What a delight Sterlin is! Joey and Benny enjoyed her playful nature and were well taken care of. I feel very blessed to have had the opportunity to invite Sterlin into our home. She kept me updated with notes and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. Thank you Sterlin!”
About: I have taken care of dogs a lot throughout my life. I used to walk dogs in my neighborhood all the time. 4 years ago I got my own puppy and trained him. Now we walk around 5 miles everyday I walk my dog multiple times a day and I love to go on long walks. I have a waitressing job in the summer and I like to spend the rest of my days outside playing with dogs. I care for my puppy so much and I am always playing with him and never leaving him by himself. I make sure that he is always happy and healthy
“This was our first time using a pet sitter, other than family, and we are extremely pleased with the experience. Cassie went above and beyond, taking care of our cats and home while we were away. Even our very shy cat, who takes days to come out while visitors are here, was out within a day and looking forward to her visits. Regular updates, photos, and personable accounts of the visits all added up to easing our minds about how the cats were doing, and we can't thank Cassie enough for her care of 2 of our furry family members! Highly recommend and will be calling Cassie for sure next time we need someone to watch the cats.”
“This was our second time having Naomi, take care of our 8 cats. She did an excellent job, sent pictures and communicated with us daily. We are incredibly grateful knowing they were being taken care of and will definitely use her again.”
“Andrew cared for our 7 cats for 8 days, two visits daily, and did a great job. He had to clean five litter boxes, change five water bowls and a fountain, feed different diets and even give medication twice daily for one of the cats. He sent us photos, communicated as needed and kept up with keeping the boxes refilled and sweeping up excess litter. He brought in mail and packages too! Will definitely book with Andrew again!”
About: With extensive knowledge on feline health and behavior, one of my professional strengths is handling cats of all demeanors - no matter how social or introverted they are. I also have 2 senior cats of my own that I care for with medication and specialized diets daily.
“Second booking with Sade and it went very well. She cared for my boys while we traveled over the holiday. There was a mini-crisis on Day 2. (I accidentally locked one of the cats in my bedroom closet!) Sade handled it very professionally and I appreciate her taking time from her day to return and do a second check of the apartment and surrounding areas. My guys enjoy her company and are very comfortable with her.”

“Top tier service! This was my first time using this service and I am so elated I ran into Sterlin. She provided constant communication about the activities she was doing with Bear which made me extremely comfortable and relieved. I also think Bear fell in love as well. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet as if they are there own there’s no need to look any further…YOU FOUND HER!”
“Kateri is awesome! Our dog had a great time while boarding with her and she was extremely communicative and shared pictures with us periodically. We’re very happy with her services!”
“Our Bichon, Jeffrey walked into Denise's home and didn't even say goodbye! He felt completely at home! The backyard is completely fenced in and just so charming! We got pictures of Jeffrey relaxing and napping while we were out. We didn't worry about him at all!”
“Charley loves his days with Michael. Michael makes sure that Charley has a really good time. He takes him to a neat doggy park and sends me wonderful pictures of Charley having great fun. Michael has an enclosed yard and two other dogs, so that Charley has fun with them as well. A further benefit - I am in the process of getting ready to move and so it is really nice to know Charley is safe and having fun and comes home too tired for me to need to exercise him in the evening when I, too, am wiped out! LOL! Michael is most accommodating and I have already booked him for the next visit.”
“Dante had a great afternoon with Lisa and Timothy and their family! This was my first time booking on Rover, and it was an extremely user friendly and seamless experience! Thank you Lisa and Timothy for taking great care of Dante and opening your home to our pup! Look forward to our next booking!!”
“Our first meeting was the meet and great and I felt comfortable leaving Franco at Kelly's house for day care. Kelly was caring and friendly to our lab. The property has a large fenced in yard for Franco to run around. He had a room with a door, window and mattress which he napped on. Kelly followed instructions and I felt at ease the time I was away from him. Recommend her highly for dog care, and is located near the shore area for vacationing parents. A+ and four ruffs from Franco.”

My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for friends, family and neighbors pets over the years. I'm currently working from home and am available everyday of the week for boarding and/or doggy day care. My children are grown and live on their own in their own homes so you can be assured your pet will have my full attention I have a fenced yard and live alone so there's plenty of space in my home for an extended stay and overnight care. I can easily crate your dog when I'm out .
“Great Care! Marci was fantastic and she even made my dog a personalized Bandana. My dog was well cared for and got enough exercise in her yard she slept the whole way home. Highly Recommend!”
“My pups had THE BEST time with Mariah. They are rescues from during Covid, and we are working on their anxiety. Mariah gave me so much confidence that the dogs were in good hands. She was thoughtful, resourceful, and therapeutic for the dogs. She facilitated play with her larger dog and sent us priceless videos of the fun they were having. Mariah is someone you want in your dog’s life!!”
“Kate was fantastic taking care of Kyzer while we were camping at the Jersey Shore! She was communicative, reliable, and it was so clear how much she genuinely cared for him — she sent updates that put our minds completely at ease while we were away. Kyzer was happy, relaxed, and well-cared-for the whole time. We came back to a dog who was clearly having a great time with her. Highly recommend Kate to anyone looking for a sitter who treats your pet like their own. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Archie usually takes awhile to warm up to people and can be kind of stand offish until then. However he IMMEDIATELY took to Patricia and her husband, letting them pet his face and going up to them for cuddles. I've never seen him do that before! He loved them right away and they were great! Will def book again”
“Karrie has been our beloved dog sitter for years. First time with our new dogs. I felt totally comfortable leaving them in her care. They came back cheerful and tired! Usually they pull me up the staicase, this time I could keep up with them. They had a lovely time at the beach and Karrie showed us videos of them romping joyfully!”
“I cannot thank you enough for providing such kind, gentle, and attentive care to our puppy while we were away. Puppies can be a handful, but you made her feel right at home with lots of treats (including your own!), plenty of playtime, and a large dose of patience and understanding. Your extensive experience working with dogs of different ages, sizes, and temperaments really showed. She was so relaxed and happy when we returned. Thank you also for sending frequent (hourly!) updates with photos. We felt completely at ease while she was in your care. We would be thrilled to work with you again and enthusiastically recommend you to others.”

“I would highly recommend Deborah. Even though I was booking on pretty short notice, she very kindly went out of her way to fit in a meet and greet with Buddy beforehand. She was great with him and they hit it off right away! Deborah just made everything very easy and I felt super comfortable knowing she’d take good care of Buddy during his walks.”
“I couldn't have asked for a better experience with Pam. She obviously loves animals and took great care of my dog. She was in frequent communication, keeping me updated on her visits. I highly recommend Pam!”

“I can't say enough wonderful things about my pet sitters! They were so incredibly heartwarming and welcoming to my dog, Brooklyn, right from the start. They truly took care of her like she was their own, and that made me feel so comfortable throughout the entire process. The daily pictures and updates they sent were fantastic, and it was clear Brooklyn was having a blast. They even gave her extra toys and showered her with the utmost love. I couldn't have asked for a better couple to watch my dog, and I appreciate them so much!”
“I booked Blanca based on the excellent reviews and she didn't disappoint. Great home and family to watch our fur babies for 2 days. She took a lot of pictures and it was obvious they got a lot of loving.”
“All I can say is A++, Brody was very well taken care of, Diana and her hubby were so welcoming when we dropped Brody off, she does slow introductions with her own dogs and Brody had friends to play with. Diana's home is extremely clean and well maintained and had no issues leaving Brody in her care. She sent us pictures and even a short video or two, made our trip to DC stress free knowing he was in good hands, Brody came home happy and as playful as ever so I know he was treated kindly and with love. As a pet owner you can tell your pets body language and he was as happy as when we dropped him off for his puppy staycation! Diana is very friendly and communicates quickly. We were running late to drop him off and she was very accommodating, can recommend her enough, her price per night can't be beat for the awesome care your furry baby will enjoy! It is well worth the ride to her home even if it's a little out of the way, take the drive and book with her! We will always see if she's available in the future, A+ all the way!!!”
“Lori was amazing. I've never left Duke with a sitter outside the family before and she made everything so easy. She kept me updated on how he was doing and sent beautiful photos of him. I had another sitter here who canceled juts days before, and Lori not only stepped in close to the date but was especially accommodating for what I needed. Definitely will use her again, and strongly recommend her to others.”
“Lisa was wonderful with my Peppy! Snuggles, car ride, art work, and plenty of love by the family! Lisa really is awesome and very easy going to deal with. Your pet would be privileged and spoiled to be in her care :) Thanks again!!!”
“Katie, John and their family were wonderful. Macie was so well taken care of we were afraid she wouldn’t want to come home!! They will be our go to Rover family from now on.”
“Nacho is a very selective Chihuahua who immediately adored Nicole. He exhibited none of the signs of anxiety he generally does when he meets someone new (or even someone he has met several times). He accepted Nicole as one of his special people and behaved as well (if not better!) for her than he does at home. Nicole sent us photos of Nacho napping, taking walks and looking completely adorable while he was in her care; we could see how content he was and were able to have peace of mind while we were traveling. Nacho will definitely be staying with Nicole the next time we need a dog sitter.”
