“We recently had the pleasure of having Nicolas care for our beloved dog, Mazzie, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From start to finish, it was clear that our pup was in great hands. Mazzie went on long walks, had incredible play time with their dog Sinatra, and we received tons of wonderful pictures, making our time away. It was evident that they were genuinely passionate about animals, and Mazzie was instantly comfortable, which gave us such peace of mind. Overall, we couldn’t recommend this pet sitter highly enough. They treated Mazzie as if she were their own, and we will definitely be using them again in the future. If you’re looking for reliable, compassionate, and attentive care for your furry family member, look no further!”
“I have a five-month-old puppy that Kevin kept overnight for me this past weekend. He sent me updates and pictures. Winchester came home very happy. I would definitely recommend Kevin for your pet sitting needs”
“Chris has been awesome with Annie during her stay. Annie got along with Chris and his dog Bunker really well. Excellent communication, too. My husband and would definitely rebook with Chris!”
“Steven is an exceptional dog sitter! He and his wife took care of my Dito, with love, kindness, and professionalism. His communication was top-notch, and he kept me updated on Dito's adventures. Dito was happy, healthy, and well-cared for, and that's all thanks to Steven's dedication. He's trustworthy, reliable, and truly a dog lover. If you need a dog sitter who will treat your pet like family, look no further than Steven. 5 stars and a big paws up from Dito.”
“Sujanna was WONDERFUL! She took thoughtful care of our Toby and went above and beyond. Toby got lots of love and attention the entire time he was there. Toby will definitely be back. We highly recommend Sujanna!!!”
“Sriram and Rekha were absolutely wonderful! From the moment we had our meet and greet, I knew my sweet lab Peanut would be in in exceptional hands. Their property is truly beautiful! It's so expansive, spacious and very safe, it's like a luxury dog hotel! They are such kind people and really made Peanut feel so welcome and right at home. Over the July 4th weekend, they went above and beyond by sending me adorable photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear Peanut was so happy, comfortable, and receiving lots of love and individual attention. This was without a doubt the best boarding experience I've ever had. I couldn't recommend Sriram and Rekha highly enough and I will absolutely be booking with them again, Peanut didn't want to leave! Thanks guys once again for taking such incredible care of my fur baby Peanut!”
“10/10 every time. Carol and her family take the absolute best care of Max we could ever ask for. Their home has become our dog's vacation home while we are away! Thank you so much for all you do and for making us feel comfortable and worry-free while he's with you.”
“Polina was our first experience using Rover and we couldn't be happier. Our dog was safe with Polina and he was clearly treated as one of the family. We received multple pictures each day of him having a great time. She got creative when he wouldn't eat the first night. When we picked him up, her genuine affection for him was evident. We will definitely choose Polina to care for our teasured pet again.”
“Hanelle has to be the nicest person but on top of that the best person to trust your pet with. She went above and beyond special care for our little Ginger and spoiled her with homemade biscuits on top of all the love she gave her. She exercised her regularly and listened to any additional information we gave her! Certainly recommend her and will be using her again”
“Very friendly and communicative! Liyuan was very quick to get back and supportive sharing photos throughout our pup's stay. I will certainly be looking to have Luna stay with Liyuan again in the future and am sure Luna's excited for it too!”
“Stan and Barbara were wonderful! Our dog felt comfortable right away and we could see how happy he was in all the pictures they sent us. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Cooper with them again. We are very grateful we found them.”

About: I have been pet-sitting for my neighbors, boss, and co-workers since 2010. While I occasionally board pets in my home, I usually provide pet/house-sitting in the customer's home. I walk/feed/brush dogs, administer oral medication if indicated, and spend time playing with them. I also take in mail, water plants, and take out trash/recycling. I am a newly retired teacher, now only working part time. I am available for your pet care needs early morning, early afternoon, & evenings. If I am providing care in my home, I can offer to take dogs for a walk in a nearby state park. I try to keep the pets' feeding and walking schedules consistent with that of the owners.
“Thanks Christopher, you did a great job having Kaya, she is healthy and happy after staying with you! Will recommend you to my friends and next time when I have to go on vacation, I'll ask you to have Kaya with you once more, if you don't mind!”
“During the time my Rocky spent with Vivian, she stayed in communication with me on a regular basis, and showed Rocky the same attention and affection that he would have received at home. Vivian is trustworthy, and my Rocky had a great stay with her. I highly recommend her dog sitting service.”
About: I’ve owned my own dog for 17 years and have babysitted friends’ dogs and many other client’s dogs by word of mouth. I am experienced with senior care and comfortable with administering medication. Ever since I started working from home and my soul dog passing the rainbow bridge I found I have more love in my heart to share with any dog out there. I recently joined rover because I miss having a dog in my home, being able to cuddle a furry friend is something I have missed dearly. I am a fully remote worker and have availability to be with your pet the entire day. I don’t often leave my house except for errands or the gym. Since I only take one client family at a time you can be assured that your baby is getting all the attention they deserve. I have a partially fenced backyard and live on a quiet street with a park within walking distance. I’ll start the day before work with a morning walk, continue with any needed potty breaks throughout the day, and then finish up with an evening walk. If your dog enjoys being on the lap I’d love for them to join me on lap for my work from home schedule! Play time can happen in my backyard or the nearby park.
“Irem and her husband did a wonderful job in caring for our 3 month old puppy for a few nights. Irem was in constant contact and gave timely updates of our pup’s stay. You can tell she genuinely enjoyed having our puppy at her home and took thoughtful care of him. We will absolutely be using Irem again!”

“Tammie was an absolute lifesaver while I was on vacation! She came three times a day to care for my cat, including administering oral medication, which can be a challenge—but she handled it with total professionalism and care. She was always on time, incredibly communicative, and sent regular updates that really helped me relax while I was away. When our flight was unexpectedly delayed, she didn’t hesitate to make additional last-minute visits to make sure my cat was safe and comfortable. Her flexibility and dedication truly went above and beyond. It’s such a relief to know my pet is in such capable and compassionate hands. I will 100% be booking with Tammie again and can’t recommend her highly enough!”
“Turin did an amazing job with our cat Noah! For the first time we left him for 10 days and felt a bit uneasy about it, but Turin took great care of him.

Highly recommended and whenever we go away again I will be sure to call you.”

In addition to our children, we have a wonderfully trained male Shi-a-Poo named Toby. He is going on 13 years old. We have raised him since a puppy.

It was the first time we were leaving our pup with anyone and he graciously agreed to meeting him the same night.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and animals my whole life, so caring for them feels very natural to me. I was raised with Springer Spaniels and have hands-on experience with walks, feeding, playtime, administering medication, and bathing. I genuinely love being around animals and am very intuitive to their needs and energy. Whether your pet is playful and active or more calm and sensitive, I meet them where they are and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while adapting to their routine. I treat every animal like they’re my own and always aim to create a calm, loving environment while you’re away. I work from home doing marketing for small businesses, so my days are naturally calm, flexible, and centered around being present. This allows me to give pets lots of attention, walks, and a consistent routine throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy creating a peaceful, comforting environment whether that means playtime, getting outside, or just relaxing together! On Fridays, I work at a local herbal apothecary from 12–6pm (until it closes on April 20th), and on Saturdays I’m at a bakery from 10–2pm. On those days, I’m still available mornings and evenings for walks, feeding, and quality time. I’m very mindful of keeping each pet’s routine steady so they feel safe, at ease, and cared for. Creating a safe, calm, and trusting environment is always my top priority. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs so I can care for them in a way that feels familiar and comfortable. In a client’s home, I’m very respectful of your space and stick closely to your pet’s normal schedule such as feeding, walks, medication, and overall routine. I pay close attention to their behavior and energy so I can respond to their needs in a thoughtful, attentive way. If caring for pets in my home, I maintain a clean, peaceful environment with lots of supervision and care. I have a side yard for fresh air and easy walks, and I also love taking dogs out for a change of scenery whether that’s a car ride to a nearby park or a walk along the path at Lake Hopatcong across the street from my apartment! Safety is always top of mind, from secure spaces to attentive handling during walks and outdoor time. I’m also very communicative and happy to send photo and video updates so you feel connected and at ease while you’re away :)
“Jonathan was terrific to work with. He made Gus feel welcome and at ease right away. He communicated well and made us feel at ease leaving Gus. I would easily recommend him to anyone!”
“George had a wonderful time at Jillian’s home. Jillian sent me pictures and updates throughout the day which was a thoughtful addition! My George suffers from separation anxiety and upon picking him up there were not signs of that. We are so thankful that we found Jillian! Additionally, Jillian responds quick and has been a pleasure to connect with - would trust Jillian with my pup any time!”
About: I have been taking care of pets since my first own pet, at around age five. Since then, my love for animals just grew and I can’t see my life without being around furry friends. I’ve been always helping family and friends to watch their pets when they are away for vacation so, I will love to host your pet in their new home away from home. I am a stay at home mom, so between the daily routine , I’ll have plenty of time to give your pet attention, love and playtime. I care for pets with love and respect. I always follow owners instructions and do my best to understand pet’s needs. I love to play with the pets and give them some love.

“Alyssa is amazing with my dog. She is punctual and tells what functions my dog did, and how he behaved, accompanied with pictures of her with him. Make me feel that my pup is in great hands. I would recommend her to anyone.”
About: Experienced pet sitter and animal lover. I've worked in animal rescue, done trap-neuter-release, cared for a colony of feral cats for a decade, and fostered more kittens and adult cats than I can count. I offer visits, walks, overnight stays, or I can live at your house while you are away. I am a nature and wildlife photographer so I have gotten to know, to one degree or the other, all of the animals around my home, which, I believe, helps to make me comfortable with all types of pets. I also offer pet portraits! I have experience with all of the usual pets, plus a few unusual ones too. I will take good care of your dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, reptiles, small animals and even tarantulas or insects.

Punctual for his walks every week, sends pictures of what they’re up to, and I trust her care with him 100%. My dog loves Julie and is excited to see her every time she stops in! If you don’t trust me, trust him!”

“I have a five-month-old puppy that Kevin kept overnight for me this past weekend. He sent me updates and pictures. Winchester came home very happy. I would definitely recommend Kevin for your pet sitting needs”
“Chris has been awesome with Annie during her stay. Annie got along with Chris and his dog Bunker really well. Excellent communication, too. My husband and would definitely rebook with Chris!”
“Sriram and Rekha were absolutely wonderful! From the moment we had our meet and greet, I knew my sweet lab Peanut would be in in exceptional hands. Their property is truly beautiful! It's so expansive, spacious and very safe, it's like a luxury dog hotel! They are such kind people and really made Peanut feel so welcome and right at home. Over the July 4th weekend, they went above and beyond by sending me adorable photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear Peanut was so happy, comfortable, and receiving lots of love and individual attention. This was without a doubt the best boarding experience I've ever had. I couldn't recommend Sriram and Rekha highly enough and I will absolutely be booking with them again, Peanut didn't want to leave! Thanks guys once again for taking such incredible care of my fur baby Peanut!”
“Very friendly and communicative! Liyuan was very quick to get back and supportive sharing photos throughout our pup's stay. I will certainly be looking to have Luna stay with Liyuan again in the future and am sure Luna's excited for it too!”
“Thanks Christopher, you did a great job having Kaya, she is healthy and happy after staying with you! Will recommend you to my friends and next time when I have to go on vacation, I'll ask you to have Kaya with you once more, if you don't mind!”
About: I’ve owned my own dog for 17 years and have babysitted friends’ dogs and many other client’s dogs by word of mouth. I am experienced with senior care and comfortable with administering medication. Ever since I started working from home and my soul dog passing the rainbow bridge I found I have more love in my heart to share with any dog out there. I recently joined rover because I miss having a dog in my home, being able to cuddle a furry friend is something I have missed dearly. I am a fully remote worker and have availability to be with your pet the entire day. I don’t often leave my house except for errands or the gym. Since I only take one client family at a time you can be assured that your baby is getting all the attention they deserve. I have a partially fenced backyard and live on a quiet street with a park within walking distance. I’ll start the day before work with a morning walk, continue with any needed potty breaks throughout the day, and then finish up with an evening walk. If your dog enjoys being on the lap I’d love for them to join me on lap for my work from home schedule! Play time can happen in my backyard or the nearby park.
“Irem and her husband did a wonderful job in caring for our 3 month old puppy for a few nights. Irem was in constant contact and gave timely updates of our pup’s stay. You can tell she genuinely enjoyed having our puppy at her home and took thoughtful care of him. We will absolutely be using Irem again!”
“Very positive experience with a 5 night boarding stay with Carolina's family. She's very pleasant to deal with, and she seems to be a very experienced dog owner. My dog seems to have really enjoyed his stay, playing with her Sheepadoodle. They have a very nice enclosed backyard where the dogs can plan outside. It made it very easy to go away on vacation for the week knowing our dog was in good hands. Will definitely rebook in the future and would highly recommend.”
“I had a great experience with John. I booked on short notice and he was very flexible with scheduling, which I really appreciated. He took excellent care of Carl while I was away and gave me real peace of mind the entire time. Communication was solid, and I received updates throughout Carl’s stay — it was clear he was being very well looked after. When I picked him up, he was calm, healthy, and completely himself, which tells you everything you need to know about the level of care he provides. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with John again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter.”
“I had an amazing experience with Alaine as my dog sitter. She was highly responsive, providing daily photos and a detailed "report card" summarizing Brizo's activities and well-being during the four-night stay. Alaine took exceptional care of Brizo, and her own dog, Pasta, was a wonderful host too. I highly recommend Alaine for her attentiveness, communication, and genuine love for animals. Brizo can't wait to visit again soon!”
“So happy we found Michele. She took Momo out on a walk multiple times a day and sent us plenty of pictures. For a picky dog like ours Michele really fit the bill. Would 100% recommend.”
“Shaun and his family take great care of our pup Skye, who always comes home happy and tired. I feel extremely confident that Skye is treated as a part of their family.”
“Linus stayed with Sue and her family for 12 days over the holidays & we couldn't have been happier with her care. She texted regularly and sent photos and it was clear that Linus was getting all the love and attention he would get from us. We're thrilled with Sue & will definitely use her again.”
“My spoiled pup had a great time with Debra. She made him feel like he was visiting Auntie Debra and he even ate while he was there, which means he felt very comfortable with her. I highly recommend her and will be using her services again soon.”
“We left our pup with Joe, Joanne, and family for a week. They provided us with frequent updates/pictures and gave Violet lots of love and snuggles. We would 100% use them again in the future.”
“Carla was very communicative and quick to respond whenever I had questions or concerns. I really appreciated her flexibility while I was searching for a sitter in my area. She took good care of my pup, even though he wasn’t feeling 100% during my time away, and kept me updated throughout the stay.”
“This was our first time using a non-family member to watch our pup and honestly it was the best! We were at ease the whole time we were away thanks to Lynn and Marty. They sent pictures and I could tell my dog was so happy. We would use them again in a heartbeat.”
