“Max and his family always take great care of Cali. Max sends me photos and keeps our very active dog busy on long walks, hikes and trips to the beach. We have used Max for boarding multiple times and never have to worry about Cali as his family showers her with love and attention. We can’t wait to book Max again.”
“This is my first time putting our dog Lucy at a boarding house. I was a bit nervous but Anmol and Trupti were amazing from our initial meet and greet, my nerves were calmed. They are amazing people and love animals! Throughout Lucy's stay, they shared several photos and videos which was nice. I felt that Lucy was well taken care of and loved in their home. We will be back when the need arises. Thank you so very much!”

“We had an exceptional experience with Monika, who boarded our pup for the weekend. From the start, her communication was prompt and friendly, putting our minds at ease. During the stay, Monika sent regular updates, including pictures and videos, showing that Chief was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It was clear that she treated Chief like one of her own, which meant the world to us. We highly recommend Monika to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. We will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”

“Meg and her family are terrific sitters. This is my second time with them and the experience couldn't have been any better. I'm lucky to have found such great people to watch my dog.”

About: I have had dogs all my life and am super comfortable with taking care of your furry family member whether it’s going for a walk, playing fetch, or if they just want some cuddles! I also love practicing commands with dogs (and of course giving them a reward after) and can distribute medication to dogs if necessary. I have been dog sitting on Rover since 2023 and absolutely love that I have this opportunity to create a special bond with so many different dogs and cats. I am happy to treat your pet like my own and go above and beyond so that you feel comfortable leaving your pets at home! I am in school full time in Bethlehem, PA but will be in Freehold NJ and available from Nov 26-30 and Dec 14-Jan 3! I’m currently am in grad school at Moravian University, and am available for drop ins and walks with your furry ones!

I am super flexible with what the owner wants and can adjust my services to whatever is best for you and your dog/dogs! I also will send pictures to reassure you that your pup is happy and doing great, because I first-hand know that being away from your furry pets is hard!!
“Gerry watched our 5 month old Maltipoo puppy Rocket this evening. He had a blast playing with her. Gerry sent us a bunch of updates and photos throughout the evening. She is very responsive, personable, clearly loves dogs and knows how to watch them. We will definitely use her again in the future and would recommend her to others as well. This was our first time leaving Rocket with a sitter and we got lucky in finding Gerry.”

“Our pup is happy while at Meaghan's and even does a few things that she doesn't do with anyone else (like get up the couch and cuddle). Meaghan is accommodating of our weird diet for Asha, and always sharing status updates. Can't ask for more!”

“Brian and his family were amazing with Shelby, I could tell from the meet and greet that this was where Shelby would get the best care. While on my trip I received multiple updates that put me at ease, I could see they treated Shelby as if she was their own. This has been the best experience I've had on Rover and will continue using Brian for every trip moving forward. Thank you so much!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years and love every minute of it! I also have experience fostering dogs for many years, which has taught me how to help them feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I enjoy giving dogs the attention and care they need while their family is away. As a stay-at-home mom, my schedule is very flexible, allowing me to provide consistent care and attention throughout the day. I have years of experience with dogs and love making sure each one feels comfortable, safe, and loved while in my care. Your dog’s safety is my top priority. With a secure fenced yard, years of fostering experience, and two friendly resident pups, your furry friend will feel right at home, loved, safe, and cared for. 🐾❤️

About: I have had dogs my whole life. From large breeds to small breeds. I’ve been dog sitting for neighbors, friends and family for years.

“Elina took amazing care of our anxious and emotionally needy dog for 3 weeks. It was our first time using her, and I felt comfortable right away.

We will not hesitate to use her again.”

“Our dog, Riley, was so well cared for by Josh. He met us at our car for drop off and pick up bc it's tricky to get to his apartment. While Riley was there we received pictures to keep us updated. It made our evening in Philly so much better knowing she was in good hands.”

About: Hi! I’m a first-grade teacher and proud cat mom who understands that pets are family. Caring for others has always been a huge part of who I am, both in my career and in my personal life. As someone whose own cat is my whole world, I know how important it is to find a sitter who will treat your pet with the same love, patience, and attention that you do. I have years of experience providing safe, reliable care and am comfortable following your pet’s routine, whether that means playtime, cuddles, feeding schedules, medication, or simply giving them space when they need it. I especially love caring for cats and understand that every cat has their own unique personality and comfort level. My goal is to help you feel at ease while you’re away, knowing your pet is being cared for by someone who genuinely loves animals and will treat them like family. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friend! 🐾💕

About: I’ve spent years caring for cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and I genuinely love building trust with every pet I meet. Whether it’s an energetic walk, a calming drop-in visit, or simply making sure your pet feels safe while you’re away, I provide dependable, compassionate care tailored to each animal’s needs. My experience includes volunteering with Friends of Southern Ocean County Animal Shelter and Stafford Veterinary Hospital, where I worked alongside animal care professionals and gained hands-on experience with cats of different temperaments, medical needs, and backgrounds. Those experiences taught me how to read canine body language, stay calm in stressful situations, and always put an animal’s comfort and safety first. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision. I’ll treat your dog like family, keep you updated with photos and messages, and make sure they get the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve every visit. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and make your pet’s day a little brighter.
“Jess is an incredibly dependable, animal loving person! So easy to work with and awesome communication as usual! Truly has the best interest for your animals. Even turned the thermostat down for the cats because the house got too hot. (She let me know of course to make sure it was ok!) So thankful to have her when we need her help. 💜”


About: Living with my roommate’s two cats was a surprisingly positive experience. At first, I wasn’t sure how I’d feel about sharing the space, but their different personalities quickly grew on me. One was playful and curious, while the other was calm and affectionate. Over time, they made the apartment feel warmer and more like home.
“Alex and Brian are wonderful pet sitters. My cat Jasmine was very happy in their care. I received multiple pictures and updates at each visit and came home to a happy kitty. Thank you!”


“Kelly was absolutely phenomenal. She took amazing care of our cat and was extremely considerate. She also kept us updated with each visit. We would most certainty book her again!”


“Bridget was very quick to respond and extremely accommodating! She took many pictures of my cat and asked to adjust the thermostat to ensure he was comfortable! Thank you Bridget!”

“Mary and Ginny were a pleasure to deal with. They even went the extra mile to visit at a later time to see if Bobo would come out of hiding and it worked. Would use them again in the future”


About: I have owned cats for the last 7 years. I currently have one who’s 100% my soul cat named Masha. I also worked with multiple cats of different personalities including more nervous cats at work. I can help with medication administration, litter care, grooming (nails, brushing only for more tolerant or we work on trying to get some anxiety meds in first to help your cat stay calm and have a fear free environment).

About: I’ve fostered multiple cats and helped them find their furever homes! I’ve also cat sat for family and friends. I’m happy to give kitties space and patience especially with a stranger in their home, or love and playtime if that’s what they want!

About: I’ve grown up always having at least one cat in my house and have been taking care of them more independently as I’ve grown up. From my family cats with and without special needs to the stray cats outside my house, my family and friends have relied on me to feed, play, and give medication to them
About: I’ve had dogs in my life for over 20 years and truly love being around them. I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities — from high-energy pups that need long walks and playtime to older dogs who just want a slower stroll and some extra TLC. I understand how important routine is, and I stick closely to feeding schedules, walk times, and any special instructions you leave. I’m active, dependable, and easygoing, and I’ll always treat your dog like one of my own. You can expect regular updates and photos so you know your pup is happy and in good hands. 🐾 Pet care fits really naturally into my daily routine. I’m already active and build walks, outdoor time, and structure into my day, so adding dog walks, drop-ins, or check-ins works well for me. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be consistent with feeding times, walks, and any special care instructions. Whether it’s a morning walk, midday visit, or evening check-in, I’m able to plan my week around making sure pets get reliable, attentive care. It’s something I genuinely enjoy, not something I’m squeezing in. 🐾 Whether in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine. I follow feeding schedules carefully, stick to walk times, and make sure they get plenty of attention and exercise based on their energy level. Playtime, enrichment, and calm downtime are all important depending on the dog’s personality. In a client’s home, I respect the space completely — keeping things clean, secure, and exactly how I found them. I’m attentive to details like medication instructions, house rules, and preferred commands. Communication is key, so I always send updates and photos so owners feel confident their pet is happy and well cared for. 🐾

“We’ve rebookedJules several times on Rover. It can be difficult on here to find people who appreciate and love cats as much as dogs, and Jules does fantastic! We trust her to take care of our kitty during our absence. Thank you!”

“Monica provided excelent care for my babies. She found a rapport with the dogs, so despite our absence, they remained playfull and calm, they ate, and did not destroy anything in the house. Usually, they are real monsters when we leave for more than few hours.”


“Cassandra was a wonderful companion for Bentley. She always spent time with him and sent us pictures of her visit with him. We would certainly use Cassandra again. Bentley has a new friend.”

Love and affection is a must when watching any dog. No matter where the sitting is taking place, your dog will be cared for!

“Max and his family always take great care of Cali. Max sends me photos and keeps our very active dog busy on long walks, hikes and trips to the beach. We have used Max for boarding multiple times and never have to worry about Cali as his family showers her with love and attention. We can’t wait to book Max again.”
“This is my first time putting our dog Lucy at a boarding house. I was a bit nervous but Anmol and Trupti were amazing from our initial meet and greet, my nerves were calmed. They are amazing people and love animals! Throughout Lucy's stay, they shared several photos and videos which was nice. I felt that Lucy was well taken care of and loved in their home. We will be back when the need arises. Thank you so very much!”

“We had an exceptional experience with Monika, who boarded our pup for the weekend. From the start, her communication was prompt and friendly, putting our minds at ease. During the stay, Monika sent regular updates, including pictures and videos, showing that Chief was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It was clear that she treated Chief like one of her own, which meant the world to us. We highly recommend Monika to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. We will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”

“Gerry watched our 5 month old Maltipoo puppy Rocket this evening. He had a blast playing with her. Gerry sent us a bunch of updates and photos throughout the evening. She is very responsive, personable, clearly loves dogs and knows how to watch them. We will definitely use her again in the future and would recommend her to others as well. This was our first time leaving Rocket with a sitter and we got lucky in finding Gerry.”

“Brian and his family were amazing with Shelby, I could tell from the meet and greet that this was where Shelby would get the best care. While on my trip I received multiple updates that put me at ease, I could see they treated Shelby as if she was their own. This has been the best experience I've had on Rover and will continue using Brian for every trip moving forward. Thank you so much!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years and love every minute of it! I also have experience fostering dogs for many years, which has taught me how to help them feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I enjoy giving dogs the attention and care they need while their family is away. As a stay-at-home mom, my schedule is very flexible, allowing me to provide consistent care and attention throughout the day. I have years of experience with dogs and love making sure each one feels comfortable, safe, and loved while in my care. Your dog’s safety is my top priority. With a secure fenced yard, years of fostering experience, and two friendly resident pups, your furry friend will feel right at home, loved, safe, and cared for. 🐾❤️

About: I have had dogs my whole life. From large breeds to small breeds. I’ve been dog sitting for neighbors, friends and family for years. Home all the time to spend playing in yard, going on long walks and caring for your pup. Looking forward to becoming your dog’s new best friend. I also have years of experience caring for reptiles. I have a fenced in yard with pool. I also have a very friendly 13 year old wheaten terrier. Plenty of space outside and frequent walks and playtime.
“Elina took amazing care of our anxious and emotionally needy dog for 3 weeks. It was our first time using her, and I felt comfortable right away. Her back yard is incredible and was great place for our dog to spend time. During our trip, Elina was very communicative, sent pictures and answered questions promptly. We will not hesitate to use her again.”

“Our dog, Riley, was so well cared for by Josh. He met us at our car for drop off and pick up bc it's tricky to get to his apartment. While Riley was there we received pictures to keep us updated. It made our evening in Philly so much better knowing she was in good hands.”

“Jennifer was amazing!!!! Sent lots of photos of Milo with his new friends! He had the best time with her two pups as well he slept as soon as he got home I know he was playing all day long! 100% will book again.”

“Easy 6 out of 5. Jaimie is an excellent sitter, she made sure my pup was happy, active, and comfortable... what more can you ask for with your best fuzzy buddy. I would easily recommend Jaimie to anyone looking for the "right choice" of sitter. She is someone who clearly knows what she's doing, and is very accommodating with people's schedules. She's awesome.”

“Second time leaving our 1 year old golden with them. Definitely trust Paul, very accommodating and alleviated our anxiety of leaving our dog for a few nights. Will definitely use again.”
