“I am so grateful to have found Samantha! My recently adopted dog, Brownie, has some anxiety around new people and in new places. Samantha went above and beyond to make sure he felt comfortable during his stay. Her apartment is so clean and cozy and truly a dog's paradise. Her dog, Cocoa, was so friendly and welcoming to Brownie. We got frequent updates during his stay and Samantha is super quick to respond. She is also very flexible around pick up and drop off. I truly cannot thank her enough for watching our sweet boy and making not only him but also our whole family feel comfortable while we are away by knowing that he is safe and happy!! Brownie didn't want to come home with me when I went to pick up because he was too busy playing with all the fun toys! He will be back soon! Thank you again, Samantha.”
“Jolanta and her family are the best! Our pup Lulu felt very comfortable right away and she was in good spirits when we picked her up after ten days away. We could tell she got a lot of love and attention. Jolanta’s very friendly and great with providing photo and video updates. Also very safety minded. Would highly recommend!!”
“We had a great experience leaving our dogs with Wanda. When we left them I heard them crying and was a bit concerned about them settling in. When we got home Wanda had texted and let us know they were setting in and sent us photos showing them relaxing. During the week we received multiple photos and updates on how it was going, which put us at ease. When we picked up the dogs they were in excellent health and very happy. We would highly recommend Wanda dog sitting services. Thank you Wanda, for taking such good care of our dogs.”
“Stephanie is the best! My dog is a very anxious little Chihuahua, She fully understands and takes excellent care of our little furry baby when we are long away. She provides updates and pictures every day, giving us peace of mind knowing our little guy is enjoying her time. I was worry free during the long trip because of Stephanie. I highly recommend Stephanie We are very thankful that we found her!”
“Anish was absolutely amazing with our dog Max. Having being a long term dog owner, he knew all about how to handle our dog Max . I felt at ease from the time Max was dropped off till the time we picked Max up. Anish took the extra effort to make sure Max was taken for walks even in the pouring rain, and give him plenty of exercise and company. Max returned home happy, rested & well exercised. I highly recommend Anish to take care of your pet, its their home away from home.”

Before the first time boarding, he did a thorough walk through with me on my usual routine with my pet and my expectations, and he also provided the detailed information on the environment he provides for the boarding.

“Ruth is amazing! I was nervous about leaving my cats for a week, but her kindness, conscientiousness, and love for animals put my mind at ease. She took such great care of them, did her best to connect with them even when they were being shy, and communicated every day to let me know they were happy and safe.”
About: My experience includes feeding, administering medications, monitoring behavior and health, and providing plenty of patience and affection. I understand that every cat has their own personality and boundaries, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable and safe.

I was worried about this situation happened right before our trip. She is so patient for this extra care. From our first meet I just felt right that I can trust her! During our trip we received a lot of pictures and detailed updates from her. We can tell Toba really enjoyed meeting her and the walks! She really took a good care of my boy. We came home with a fully recovered and happy boy and felt so grateful for Christa’ s help! Christa is definitely the one you can fully trust with your little family member! We will have her back next time and highly recommend her to all!”

“It’s not easy finding someone to care for your beloved pets while away for work or vacation. Having the right person stay at your home is the difference between a great trip and a bad one. Finding that RIGHT person is paramount. Daniel is that RIGHT person. He’s kind, gentle, and very reliable. He cared for our pups and our home as we would. If you are looking for someone to care for your pets look no further. We highly recommend Daniel!”

“James was great during drop-in visits with our two cats! His rover cards were very thorough, and he was easy to communicate with. Even our cat who is shy around strangers felt comfortable and wanted pets from him by the end of his time caring for them. I will definitely rebook with him in the future!”

“Gerry is so sweet and takes great care of my pup! My dog comes home very happy after her time with Gerry. I am so thankful for the love and care she gives to my girl!”
“Kaela and her family are awesome. We really liked how responsive and accommodating she was. We needed to book a last minute reservation 2 days for our dog for July 4th, she quickly responded to confirm. Most importantly, seeing our dog happy when we picked her up the first day, and wagging her tail when seeing Kaela the second day, showed us how happy the doggo was with Kaela. I'd definitely love to have Kaela take care of our dog the next time we are in the area.”
“We had a great experience with having Elias take care of our 2 dogs. It was our first time leaving them with Elias but he made us feel comfortable and kept us updated through their stay. I would definitely have them stay with him again.”
“Davina is great with my Jack! He goes to her house 3 days a week while I'm at work. He gets so excited when we show up and he runs straight to the door. She is very transparent with his care and she makes sure all his needs are met. Even providing him with a coat when he didn't want to go out in the rain 🥰 I highly recommend Davina for your pet care!”
“She's an awesome caretaker, updating me about all the minute details about my pet. My pet was so comfortable with her and I can tell he really got along with her. The best part is her attention to every detail and investing time in updating me with every thing. 11/10 would definitely recommend her and I personally look forward to leave my pet with her again.”
“Carly and her husband know exactly how to help my nervous dog, Nomi feel safe and comfortable while away from home. Thank you so much for taking care of my special girl today! 💗”
“this was Scooby's first day away from family. Lauren was very friendly and took care of our baby really well. Scooby was very happy with her. could not have asked for more. Thanks a ton Lauren”
“Swapna took the very best care of Koko. She was in constant contact with me, sending updates and pix throughout the time Koko was there. Her home and yard were perfect for Koko. Large backyard completely fenced in. Lower level of her home, separated from her animals, was clean and smell-free. I would definitely recommend Swapna to care for any of your pets.”
About: I have been around dogs and cats my whole life. Up until recently, I have raised 2 dogs for the past 15 years and cats prior to/during part of that time. I am a stay-at-home mom with 2 young adults away at college so I have flexibility to visit homes with dogs or cats throughout the day. My innate ability to connect with animals has inspired me to seek out work where I may spend more time caring for them. I understand the care and concern pet owners have for their pets, especially when they are not able to be home for them. My experience being the primary caregiver for my own pets has nurtured my love for animals and provided me with knowledge of basic training techniques. It is my goal to provide peace of mind that I will care for your pet the same as I would for my own furry loved one. I look forward to visiting with new furry friends! I am currently home all days of the week except midday Tuesdays. Therefore, I have flexibility to visit pets throughout the day on most days. I am currently living in a neighborhood with ample space for walks. In addition, I have reliable transportation for visits to clients’ homes as necessary.
“Joanna is great. She asked the right questions and was very responsive whenever I asked her one. She kept sending pictures and videos during the stay. Our dog, Luna, liked her and went back to her even after I was there to pick her up. It gives you such a peace of mind when you know someone as caring is watching your pet. We plan to use her again.”
“Trusting anyone with your pet, especially a young puppy, is always nerve wrecking. From the moment that I first spoke with Vickie I felt completely reassured that Denali was in good hands. Vickie and Heath are such kind, compassionate people and it shows in how they interact with the pets in their care. Denali is always SO EXCITED to get out of the car when she sees that we’re at their house, and comes home happy and exhausted from having so much fun. They are flexible, reliable, honest and even gave helpful tips when they noticed Denali starting to eat grass. I cannot recommend them enough for daycare/boarding!”
About: I'm a very caring animal lover and have been house and dog sitting for years. I've had my dog since she was a puppy so I have the experience to care for dogs of all ages. My dog is extremely active so I dont have any problem keeping up with pets of any activity level. I've been to training with my dog and am able to use the skills I've learned with my dog to any pet. I've dog sat for multiple dogs at once with different health issues and dietary restrictions. I'm very meticulous when it comes to your pet's health including medication regimens and special dietary needs. I treat all animals as if they were my own. My main goal while caring for your pet is to keep your pet safe, happy and healthy. I'm currently traveling to care for my mom in a different state. I do my best to update my rover calendar to reflect my availability in a timely manner. When I'm in New Jersey Rover is my main focus. My goal is to provide your pet with the same enviroment they would recieve at home. We are away from main roads and have access to a fenced dog park.
About: I have many years of experience with dogs. I have babysat and cared for friends dogs and also for my own dog. I recently adopted a cat so I also have a little over a year of experience with looking over cats. I have lots of free time to be able to play and care for your pets. I don’t have many distractions during the day meaning my full attention will be caring for your fur babies. I have a fenced in yard and a pretty spacious home. There is lots of room for my cat to roam around. He even has his own room and his own bathroom. There isn’t a lot of traffic around my neighborhood so I like to let my cat outside on a leash so he can feel the sun on his face.
“I highly recommend Gabriela!! She is a fantastic communicator and very accommodating. She watched our dog for us while we were traveling in the area and wanted to take a day trip to Six Flags Great Adventure. You won’t be disappointed with her attentiveness to your dogs needs. Our girl had a great time romping around outside. Thank you!! We will definitely seek her services again if we decide to make another trip down.”
“Darya provided daycare for Watson for a week. Watson, who can sometimes have separation anxiety, was excited to see Darya every morning. Their dog Coco is a very nice dog and I was happy Watson would have a friend.”
About: I’ve had a lifelong love for dogs, caring for others and many years of hands-on experience caring for my own. My beloved Yorkshire Terrier was part of my family for 17 wonderful years. She was truly my baby, and caring for her throughout every stage of life—from playful puppy days to her senior years—taught me patience, attentiveness, and how deeply our pets rely on us. While I’m not quite ready to welcome another dog of my own just yet, I would love the opportunity to share my time and affection with your pup. I understand that dogs are family, and I will treat yours with the same love, care, and attention I gave my own. I’m a caring, dependable, and responsible person who will make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while just for a day or if you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I’m a stay-at-home mom, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and plenty of time during the day to give dogs the attention, care, and companionship they need. Because I’m home most of the time, I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of affection. Your dog’s safety and comfort are very important to me. I provide a loving, and secure environment where your pet will be treated like family. I’m happy to take dogs on walks and make sure they get the exercise and attention they need. I can also crate your dog while not home if that is part of their normal routine and something that makes them feel comfortable. I will always follow your instructions carefully so your dog can stay on their usual schedule and feel as relaxed as possible while in my care.
“Laura is amazing! My dog Milo is very anxious which makes me very nervous to leave him and she did so great with him! All the update pictures also helped make me feel better that he was okay! Highly recommend Laura!! 😊”

“Daniel has been working with my dog for the past few weeks, and I can’t thank him enough. He is always on time, and always messages me before he gets to the house, as well as when he leaves. As soon as he met my dog, I could tell he was trustworthy and a huge dog lover. I always feel secure knowing that he is on the way looking after my pup. Cannot recommend him enough!”
“Brianna was very kind to my dogs and made sure I came home to no accidents! With the warm weather we’ve been having she was kind enough to modify our walking routine to make sure the dogs were comfortable, has followed typical feeding schedules, and adjusted to my youngest dog’s needs through his medical issues. I am happy to recommend her as a reliable pet sitter for anyone in need”
“Boryana was wonderful with my dog! She came for a meet & greet to go over everything. During the visit she took such great care of him & sent me photos and updates. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: Over the past few years I have been caring for family and friends pets while they are away. I have just fell in love with all the dogs I have meet along the way. I also have spent time walking at a local rescue which has just taught me so much about dogs and how to be around them and work with them on and off the leash. I continue to grow and learn something new from each dog I work with. It’s a great pleasure of mine. I’m a stay at home mom with both my boys off at school during the day so I have plenty of free time to take care of your pets. I offer drop in visit, dog walking and even over night visits in your home. I will care for your pets like I would care for my own. I will give them lots of love and affection with safety being number 1. I am very careful to follow all the owners need and wants when caring for their pets. I love sharing updates and picture with the owners on my visits. I take pride in my work and make sure I am on time for every job. I am careful to lock up behind me and make sure the pets are secure before leaving them. I am very respectful of people’s home and property as well.

About: I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs since I was a kid. There has always been a pet in my house while growing up. My family has relied on me to feed and play with the pets while they were away. I additionally have experience in caring for both young and senior pets. I’m currently working part-time, which means I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I’m available most days except for Wednesday & Thursday afternoons. My schedule is pretty flexible so I can accommodate if needed :) I currently have one cat in my home. I feed him, give him affection and play with him everyday. We also have a dog that lives at home with us. I take care of him when his owner is busy.
About: I really focus on structure and training not just basic walks and cuddles. I have hands on experience helping dogs with obedience recall and leash manners and I am comfortable following a family’s training plan or reinforcing commands your dog already knows. I especially enjoy working with puppies who need consistency and socialization and I am also happy to give senior dogs gentle walks slower routines and lots of quiet time. What sets me apart is that I treat every dog like a student calm patient and consistent while still making sure they get love play and plenty of mental stimulation. I am happy to send photo and video updates follow your schedule for treats and meds and create a routine that fits your dog’s personality instead of a one size fits all approach. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I am already used to being around dogs and building consistent schedules. I set aside time each day for walks play training reviews and check ins so pet care does not feel like an add on it just slots into my normal rhythm. I am also a student with flexible hours so I can plan walks visits or in home stays around your dog preferred times and your schedule. Treating pets like part of my routine helps me give them steady attention the same kind of structure they are used to at home. I care for pets in my home by giving them a quiet dedicated space where they feel safe, plenty of breaks outside, and regular meals and potty breaks on a schedule. I keep the environment calm and predictable, avoid overstimulation, and follow your instructions for treats, toys, and any training cues your dog already knows. If I am at a client’s home I keep the same routine, making sure your pet gets walks playtime, and cuddle breaks while respecting your house rules. I always check in with you first about anything unusual and send updates so you can feel at ease while you are away.
About: I’ve been caring for pets for many years, both in my own home and in clients’ homes. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I’m also experienced with cats and understand that every pet has their own unique routine and comfort level. I believe pets deserve to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having someone stick to their normal routine, I’m happy to provide personalized care that fits their needs. I’m reliable, responsible, and will always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make every pet feel like they’re with family. During the summer, I have a very flexible schedule and am available most days for pet care. Throughout the school year, I work as an elementary school counselor, so I’m typically available after school on weekdays, as well as evenings, weekends, holidays, and school breaks. I’m very easy to communicate with and happy to work around your schedule whenever possible. Whether you need regular care or last-minute help, I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they can feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh water, and lots of affection. I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, administer basic medications if needed, and provide regular photo and message updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to create a safe, calm, and loving environment.

About: I have taken care of my friends pets for a few years now, either going over to their house to check on them, let them out and play with them or even taking them on walks. I currently have 3 dogs at home, and I have been taking care of them since they were puppies as well as the dogs I have had previously as well. I know how to handle small dogs and medium/large dogs, whether it comes to walks or just checking in to play with them, or let them out for the bathroom. I am currently working a part-time job, so I have all the time during the day to walk dogs and care for them. I am free anytime after 9 am. I currently have three dogs of my own at home. I play with them a lot inside the house when it gets too hot, and every few hours I let them out for the bathroom and play and tire them out, when outside, depending on how hot it is. I walk around outside with them to get some walking in up and down our driveway.
About: Diagnosed with allergies in childhood, I didn’t have pets until in my 20s, when I picked a week-old kitten from a litter & raised him. Thelonious used to walk between my shoulders as I moved around the house, and slept in my bed. Friends told me he behaved more like a dog than a cat—very affectionate. We were very close. His death broke my heart & I still miss him. Seven years ago, I did cat-sitting for a friend whose apartment in NYC I stayed in for a summer while working nearby on Varick Street. He was a very easygoing cat. Years later, my stepson left his dogs at our house & I was their primary minder. I fed, walked & played with them every day. Although I’d been around dogs a lot growing up, it’s one thing to be around them & another to be responsible for them & develop relationships with them. Each of the dogs had a very distinct personality, and I found them fascinating. Through those & other experiences with friends’ pets, I’ve found that I’m able to make connections with animals that go beyond words. I never would have imagined such a thing in childhood. These days I do house sitting & drop-ins for clients in Monmouth, Mercer & Middlesex Counties. I’m tending to pets with a wide range of needs & dispositions, and love I give is more than equaled by the love I receive from them. I’m truly humbled & in awe. Professionally, I managed desktop publishing & automated publishing for a Fortune 500 financial firm for 20 years. So I have a long track record of responsibility & discipline. That combination of sensitivity & responsibility are what I bring to pet sitting. I only accept clients living within a 30-minute drive from my home, and my routines at home are easily adaptable to meet my clients’ needs. That means my highly flexible schedule allows me to provide your cat with the consistent time, routine, and attention they deserve while you are gone. I don’t rush my check-ins; I stay the full duration to ensure your pet gets plenty of physical play and mental stimulation. Because my hours are highly adaptable, I can drop in at the exact times your pet expects breakfast, dinner, or treats. I’m happy to take photos during my stay to enable you as the pet owner to feel secure about your pet’s care in your absence. I like to play with & talk to pets, and try to adhere to their normal routines, so they, too, feel comfortable in your absence.
About: I’ve been around dogs for over 10 years and have owned two dogs myself, so I understand the care, attention, and patience pups need. I’ve also helped walk and care for several extended family dogs over the years. Friends and family always consider me a “dog person,” and dogs naturally seem to warm up to me quickly. I love spending time with animals, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just keeping them company, and I’m excited to meet more amazing pups through Rover! During the school year, I balance classes with a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of time for dog walks and check-ins, especially on weekends. In the summer, I have even more availability and regularly fit dog walks, playtime, and pet care into my daily routine. I’m used to spending time with my own dogs before and after work or other responsibilities, so making sure pets get attention, exercise, and companionship is already a natural part of my day. I always aim to make pets feel comfortable and safe in their own home by sticking closely to their normal routine. I’ll follow any instructions carefully, whether that includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication, or crate routines. I’m respectful of clients’ homes, keep things clean and organized, and make sure pets get plenty of attention and care while you’re away. I also like to send updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for.
“Our dog loves the time he spends with Michaela. She happily accommodates our requests to extend each visit to allow time for play and a feeding on top of a walk. She sends photos and updates which puts us at ease. Michaela is flexible and responds quickly - both of which we appreciate so much when planning care for our dog! Would absolutely recommend!”

“Jolanta and her family are the best! Our pup Lulu felt very comfortable right away and she was in good spirits when we picked her up after ten days away. We could tell she got a lot of love and attention. Jolanta’s very friendly and great with providing photo and video updates. Also very safety minded. Would highly recommend!!”
“Elias and his family were great with our Westie, Coconut. We have entrusted Elias with Coconut for multi- night stays on a couple of occasions and couldn't be happier with the care she received.”
“Sujata & Sandeep were really great to meet. Sent regular updates with pics during Cody’s stay with them. Neo & Cody bonded very well on our greet and meet session prior to boarding him. Cody loved playing in their back yard and was coaxing Neo to join along. Cody felt at home. Planning to use their services soon. Thank you guys!!!”
“Anish was absolutely amazing with our dog Max. Having being a long term dog owner, he knew all about how to handle our dog Max . I felt at ease from the time Max was dropped off till the time we picked Max up. Anish took the extra effort to make sure Max was taken for walks even in the pouring rain, and give him plenty of exercise and company. Max returned home happy, rested & well exercised. I highly recommend Anish to take care of your pet, its their home away from home.”
“Swapna was very good with Kayce. She showed us her home and we were to see when Kayce would play. She kept us informed during our time away with texts and pictures. We will be using her services again soon.”

“Amy was so sweet and easy to make arrangements with! It made me feel good when she told me that Bear enjoyed hanging out with her family. Her daily updates and pictures were a treat. I would not hesitate to board Bear at Amy’s again.”
“Vicki and Heath had our dog for 3 nights, and she had a great time! We were nervous because we haven’t left her with anyone else before this. Our nerves were quickly settled by lots of photos and videos. She got lots of exercise with their dogs and another dog that was staying with them that weekend. She made herself right at home by sleeping on their couch and watching their horses from the window. Vicki even made her eggs to add to her food! I’m so grateful we found Vicki & Heath!”
“Another great experience with Max and his family! Tucker had a great time, loved his walks, watching soccer games, and playing with the girls! I know he is happy and well taken care of when he is with them! We would not hesitate to have Tucker stay with Max again. It’s so nice to know that we don’t have to worry about our pup when we are out of town. Hopefully in the near future Tucker can visit with them again exclamation I think he already misses all of you!”
“Davina and her family were so good to Arnie I was afraid he may not come home! Very proactive and responsive communication and pictures so you know your fur baby is happy! She even made homemade doggy treats and personalized each dog’s initial! Beyond exemplary!”

“Micheal is a great sitter. Before the first time boarding, he did a thorough walk through with me on my usual routine with my pet and my expectations, and he also provided the detailed information on the environment he provides for the boarding. His schedule is really flexible, is easy to reach and quick to respond. He took great care of my dog and my dog was really happy and relaxed while boarding. He updated me everyday on the status of the dog and also send great pictures. Thanks Micheal for providing a comfortable environment for my dog.”
“Meena & her husband took very good care of our 8 month old pup. She was updating us with messages and pictures throughout the day and went out of her way to care for him. We were at peace of mind seeing the pictures & updates throughout his stay. Highly recommend her!”
