“We came home to a happy Walter, and it was clear his needs were met. We appreciated the photos and updates, and it was nice knowing things were on track while we were away. Thank you for looking after him.”
“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”
“Debra and Vic and amazing. I loved receiving photos every day while we were away. Our rescue dog Oliver had a wonderful time. Such a great time he’s been sulking since he came home. I know he’s already looking forward to his next stay!”
“Lin was amazing with Peri. He was very happy in all the photos and videos I received! They spent a lot of time together walking and playing. I ran into a bit of an issue with my painter needing more days and Lin immediately stepped up and offered to keep Peri another two days. What a lifesaver ! She’s wonderful and sweet. Do not hesitate to leave your babies with her. They’ll be loved 🥰”
“So accommodating and friendly. This was our first time boarding, and pretty instantly we knew our pup was in good hands! The pictures were so appreciated, and we’re incredibly grateful for the care our dog was given.”
“Alexis took great care of our dogs and provided regular updates. She was thoughtful, accommodating, and considerate with all of our plans. Would absolutely recommend her and would definitely book with her again!”
“Sandra was amazing with our dog Lola while my family and I were on vacation! She was incredibly kind and on top of everything. She sent us pictures almost every day, including photos of Lola relaxing in her room, which really helped us feel at ease. Whenever I asked how Lola was doing, she replied right away. She treated Lola like part of her family, and Lola clearly felt comfortable and happy there. We’ll definitely be booking with Sandra again. Highly recommended!”
“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!”
“Sujanna is an amazing person clearly cut out for the job that she does. She took amazing care of Rebel and was very communicative with Rebel’s daily activities. She sent pictures and videos detailing day’s events and best of all, Rebel was clearly so happy with her. I will not look elsewhere if I need a sitter again. Thank you so much Sujanna.”
“Jake and Mischa were great! We had to find another sitter as the sitter we normally use was unavailable. Our dogs took to them right away. They sent us pictures throughout the week and always kept us updated. Also they offer pick up and drop of services!!! Our dogs were exhausted when they came home after so much fun. Highly recommend!”
“We are first time dog owners and we brought our 11 month old German Shepherd to Morgan after seeing her rave reviews. We can verify she deserves all five stars - she was able to quickly interpret our puppy’s behavior and gave us tips for after the boarding experience. We were nervous as well since this was the first time our dog would be away from us for an extended amount of time but Morgan made us feel at ease with her professional veterinary experience and ability to help along our puppy’s socialization. We boarded our dog for 6 days and Morgan was very communicative during the stay, with quick response to our messages. We highly recommend her and plan to use her again.”
“This was my first time using rover and I could not have been happier. Fiona was so sweet and treated my Lucy like her own! I felt at ease knowing she was in good hands while we were out of town. I’ll definitely be using her again!!”
“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!”
“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!”
“Kim was very quick to respond to me whenever I wanted to check in and see how Ryder was doing. She was very friendly and welcoming. She sent me pictures and made me feel comfortable that my baby was in good hands. I would highly recommend her. This was my first time using a dog sitter and I am very pleased with the entire experience. Thank you again Kim for everything. I would use her again if I need a sitter.”
“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.”

“Savana was such a blessing while I was away on vacation for a week. She took such good care of my cat, it was obvious that she really loves animals and genuinely cares about their wellbeing. She is beyond kind, thoughtful, and professional. Savana sent me photos of my cat every morning and evening, it brought me so much comfort having left my baby for a week. I will 100% be requesting her again for any further vacations. Such a wonderful human and provided the best experience.”
“Kimberly was amazing! I’m glad to have found her. She took such good care of my cat while I was away and left the best updates with photos that gave me confidence through out the week. I will absolutely be rebooking with Kimberly on my next trip. Thank you so much!!”

About: I've owned and cared for dogs since I was three years old. I've always loved them! I've worked at a dog boarding kennel for over a year now and I love it! Before that, I worked at a farm with lots of different animals and I've watched/walked dogs on the side for a long time now. I also have experience with cats as well! I'd love to meet your four-legged friends and family! I work part-time at a dog boarding kennel and my hours are different sometimes. I'm either working 7am - 12:30pm OR 3pm - 7pm. I usually work the afternoon shift (3 - 7). Since I have worked with animals a lot, especially dogs, I definitely consider myself pretty educated. Like I said, I do not offer boarding in my own home but I am more than happy to come to yours and offer my services! If you have any questions about anything, always feel free to contact me! :)
“This was the first time I used Rover or needed a sitter at all. I found Brenda and Francis and communicated shortly and set up a meeting day. Brenda came by and we hit it off. She's an animal lover, very caring and genuine. All throughout my time away, she was always reachable. Went the extra mile with maintaining the space my cats live in. And I even needed her to do some trouble shooting with the cameras in my house ( cats are fun ) . I will definitely be reaching out in the future to have this duo check in on my babies again. Trustworthy, responsible, and caring.”
About: I have a dog and 2 cats of my own! I have been volunteering at Father Johns Animal House for a little over 3 years now dealing with all sorts of cats and dogs. I am a 20 year old professional dog groomer. I am currently working part-time while regularly going to school. I like to take care of pets whenever I have the free time! I am willing to work for someone who is flexible and understanding of my schedule and conflicts I will play with your pets, feed them, walk them, and make them feel loved and comforted. I love keeping pets happy and warm, it’s the best feeling in the world!
“Madelyn was wonderful and took great care of my fur baby even when my driveway was covered in snow and also helped us out over Christmas! Our cat is a needy boy and usually complains a lot when we leave but he didn’t seem to mind this time. Would definitely recommend!”
About: I have a passion for animals and have accumulated several years of personal pet care experience with dogs, cats, small animals, and reptiles! In addition to my personal experience, I have over 4 years of professional dog care experience working with dogs of all breeds, including puppies, seniors, and those with special needs. I understand the unique care requirements each pet has, and I strive to provide them with the attention, love, and comfort they deserve. I’m committed to ensuring your pets are happy, healthy, and well cared for! I work full time, but I’m available Sundays through Tuesdays for pet care. On my days off, I have plenty of time to provide reliable walks, playtime, and attention to keep your pets happy and comfortable! When caring for pets in my client's home, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being! I stick to routines that provide a sense of consistency and security for the pets, whether it’s feeding, walks, or playtime. Building trust is also essential, so I take the time to get to know each pet!

I have also worked for a prominent doggy day care that has locations across the country. I have an acre of fenced in yard for the dogs to run around and get out all of their energy, so you can rest assured they'll be having the time of their life here! I work from home, so I am available whenever you need. I love to spend time with dogs and can be there when you can't!
“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!”

Our pets mean the world to us. They are family. Their unconditional love is a healing energy to us in this busy world.

I have spent many hours volunteering at our local animal shelter as a trainer and working one on one with clients and their pups in the comfort of their own homes. It is a privilege to provide excellent petcare in the way of walking, feeding and playing with your pets. We have a full house in Vernon, NJ with two chocolate labs (Marshall and Lily) and a dachsund mix. We also have two cuddly guinea pigs named Nessy and Sonic. The most critical decision I make when leaving for a trip involves the welfare of my pets and who will be taking care of them. Exceeding your expectations as a confident, reliable, knowledgable and loving petsitter is my promise to you. Having had multiple dogs, cats, gerbils, hamsters, fish and guinea pigs throughout my life has been a great source of joy and contentment. I am comfortable caring for all pets, large or small.

I will provide many pictures and videos of your pet while you are away and keep you informed on the daily.
About: my parents had a cat when i was little but i barely remember it, but i have a cat now who’s the sweetest baby ever, and ive dealt with some cats in the past while dog sitting so i know the basics :)
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, including my own pets since I was 10. I also worked at a dog kennel and as a dog grooming assistant when I was younger, and I’ve dog-sat for other families. These experiences taught me how to safely handle dogs, help with bathing, and keep them calm and comfortable in new places. What makes me different from many sitters is my experience with senior, disabled, and recovering dogs. I’ve cared for pets after surgery and illness, including staying up overnight to watch them, hand-feeding, helping them move around, and gently taking them outside. I also cared for my disabled Lab whose back legs didn’t work, helping with bathroom needs, cleaning, and daily comfort. Because of this, I’m very patient, attentive, and comfortable caring for dogs who need extra help, medications, or a slower pace. I treat every dog like family and focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily schedule. I complete my schoolwork through flexible online classes, which allows me to be home most of the day. Because of this, I’m able to give pets frequent attention, regular potty breaks, walks, feeding, and companionship throughout the day instead of leaving them alone for long periods. I’m used to caring for pets as part of my daily routine at home, including feeding, cleaning, and making sure they are comfortable and safe. This flexible schedule allows me to be reliable and fully present for the pets in my care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they are fed on time, have fresh water, get walks or potty breaks, and receive lots of attention and playtime. I also give any medications if needed and keep their space clean. I respect the client’s home and keep everything tidy, including cleaning up pet messes, washing bowls if needed, and making sure doors and gates stay secure. I send updates and photos so owners know their pet is safe and happy. My goal is to make pets feel relaxed and cared for while their family is away.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets my entire life, and my family and friends look to me if they need me to dog sit (or pet sit) when they’re away or unavailable. I love animals, and so getting to take care of furry friends is an absolute treat!! I’m currently attending college, so monday and wednesday mornings im out of the house from 8-12. any other time, if given enough notice, i can be available for you and your pets! I live in a family home with my dog daisy, who is very friendly and about 14 years old now. She never fails to be entertained, and I love her with all my heart. I will do the same for your pets :)

“My pup Farrah is in her glory when staying with Hannelie. She has room to roam and two great pups to play with. Hannelie prioritizes safety and fun, leaving me with nothing but confidence that Farrah has the best care.”
“Nina did an awesome job taking care of Duke. When I picked him up he was smiling, and then immediately fell a asleep in the car. He was a very happy puppy and I would definitely use Nina again in the future!”
“Morgan was more than happy to take our crazy energetic Vizsla puppy from us and attempt to get him tired by letting him run in her vast fenced back yard. She sent pics every so often and was always super responsive. She also made sure he was cleaned up when we picked him up. He was a bit muddy from the look of the pictures but not one piece of mud came back home with him. The best part, he was a bit less energetic the next two days. What a treat for us. All that running around worked! We would definitely have her watch him again, granted if she’s okay doing so.”
“They were warm and welcoming from the beginning. Emma seemed comfortable wandering around their home and being with them. They saved me just by being available on Thanksgiving! I would definitely use them again!!”
About: We offer loving and compassionate dog boarding or drop-ins and cat drop-ins. Dog boarding is at our home with a large, fenced-in yard and plenty of room to play and roam around. We never take more than one dog guest at a time and take extra special care of your pet while you are gone, including walks and cuddles. My husband and I have been taking care of dogs and cats a combined 30 years and have both had dogs since childhood. I lived with dogs (2 Jack Russel Terriers and a black Lab) for over 20 years and have had my own cats for the past 10 years. I know how to walk, bathe and feed. BONUS THAT REALLY SETS ME APART FROM OTHERS 😅: I am a pet intuitive and add Reiki for pets into my services if it's wanted. I am a stay-at-home mom and can care for your pets in the morning and at night 7 days a week. I am also able to do small drop-in visisg throughout the day as needed. Currently, I can only care for your pets in your home. We have play and snuggle time depending on what your pet needs, feed and clean litter boxes.
“Jennifer was great with my dog. He got lots of exercise and was able to be social with other dogs. It was a 3 day booking and he was excited to see her after the first day. Great care and super nice lady.”
About: - Have had multiple dogs since age 5 - have taken care of neighbors dogs since age 10 - Volunteered at a stables at 11 and then again at 13 - Taken care of my aunts dogs since I was 16-22 - Have been called on multiple cat sitting jobs just to play with the cat for a couple hours I am a freelance photographer, so my schedule is very random so I am available most days and can work my schedule around your schedule!

About: I have taken care of pets my whole life. I grew up with dogs, cats, fish, lizards, and a chinchilla. My friends made a joke that my house was a zoo with all the animals we had. I love animals and I can’t imagine my life without a furry pet. I’m home for the summer before my job starts in September. Free during the weekends or weekdays for boarding, house sitting, or walking. I’m very flexible for hours. My dog is very good off leash in our backyard. We take her on hikes all the time to tire her out. My cats are older and have to take medication but they love snuggling up with my dog.
About: I have dog sat many times and am experienced with many breeds from the smaller pups to the larger ones. I look forward to meeting you and your pup(s). I’m currently a stay-at-home mom to my 13-month-old child, which allows me the flexibility and availability to add dog-sitting to my daily routine. Since I’m home throughout the day, I’m able to provide plenty of attention, supervision, and care for visiting pups. I have a fully fenced-in yard, providing a safe and secure space for dogs to play and relax. When I dog-sit, visiting dogs are welcome to interact with my own dogs as long as they are dog-friendly and show appropriate behavior. I always prioritize safe and positive introductions to ensure everyone gets along well.
“This was my first time using Rover and actually my first time leaving my dog with anyone for more than an hour (besides the vet). We were traveling and staying at an Airbnb so we could do a day at Legoland. I was nervous, but everything went great! Bailey immediately took to Amy's assistant who came out to greet us and happily went with her, which is not something he would do with most people. She sent a video and some photos while we were at the park, which was a huge relief to know he was doing okay. I would definitely recommend Amy and am much more at ease using Rover again.”
About: As a doctor, I’ve spent years caring for people of all ages and I bring that same compassion, patience, and attention to detail to the pets I look after. What sets me apart is my medical background and calm, caring approach to both routine and unexpected situations. I’m comfortable helping with pets who need a bit of extra attention, like seniors, those on medication, or anxious animals, always ensuring they feel safe and cared for. I’ve been caring for dogs since I was about 10 years old, when I started helping my neighbors with their pets while they were away. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments — from playful puppies who need consistency and training, to older dogs who require gentler care and medication on schedule. In the past, I’ve also trained many dogs, focusing on consistency, positive reinforcement, and gentle play to help them learn and have fun. Whether your pet needs structured walks, quiet companionship, or a steady hand during medication time, I’ll treat them like one of my own family members. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m an early riser and make time every day for walks, play, and check-ins. My work schedule is flexible, allowing me to plan visits around each pet’s needs—whether it’s morning exercise, midday drop-ins, or evening companionship. Caring for animals is a relaxing and rewarding part of my week. I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care I give my own. I follow your instructions carefully, maintain a clean environment, and keep pets safe with close supervision indoors and secure leashes outdoors. I focus on helping pets feel comfortable and calm, especially when their families are away, so they always feel cared for and at ease.
“Julia was so amazing with my 4 month old puppy Hawthorne. She invited me into her home to show me the space and it made me feel so much more at ease. She was very communicative and shared lots of updates during his stay. I’m looking forward to booking with her again very soon!”
About: I have worked with animals for most of my life and have experience caring for a wide range of animals, from dogs to horses. I have previously worked at a dog boarding facility for two years, where I handled daily care, feeding, cleaning, and exercise. I have have also grown up on a horse farm that has a wide variety of animals. I am comfortable working with both small and large animals and have experience administering medications, including insulin injections. I currently own both a dog and a horse, so animal care is a part of my everyday life. I also have a friendly dog in the home who enjoys playing with other dogs, which helps create a comfortable and social environment for pets in my care. I am patient, reliable, and passionate about making animals feel safe, cared for, and comfortable. I currently work remotely, Monday to Friday, from the comfort of my own home. I am currently working from home during the week so I have plenty of time for outside play and walks as well as constant supervision While my yard is not fenced in, I provide long walks around the lake and possibly even swimming for those warm days and water loving dogs.
About: I love dogs, big and small, and enjoy building relationships based on love and trust with dogs I meet. My friends know how much love and attention I show their dogs whenever I visit, and frequently have asked me to care for their dogs while they're away, whether it's a week or longer vacation, an overnight trip, or simply needing someone to feed and/or walk their dog either as-needed or on a given schedule. I have experience with older and special-needs dogs, and have given dogs eye drops, given pills and liquid medications (including dogs who weren't eager to eat), and I've even given IV infusions to one dog I was caring for. I work fully remotely so dogs in my apartment are almost never left alone, and if they are, it's never for more than 5-10 minutes at most. My schedule is very flexible, so if your dog needs to be walked at exactly 8am, noon, 4pm and 8pm, I can generally accommodate that or any other schedule. I try to maintain consistency with how your dog is cared for by you, so if you allow him or her on furniture, he or she is welcome on mine, but if you don't, I'll make sure he or she stays off mine. If there's a specific route you'd like me to walk your dog on, I'm happy to follow it, and I'll follow any and all instructions you provide related to treats, feeding, etc.

About: Hello! I live in Sussex County, NJ, and have been walking dogs since January 2025 via the Wag app. I am available for drop ins, walks, and pet sitting during the day. Since I have 2 sassy beagle-mixes of my own, I can do overnight stays with some household coordination on my end. I’m currently working part time, so have a flexible schedule! I do my best to only accept bookings where I know I’ll make it not only on time, but a few minutes early. It’s important for me to know what access or limits your pet has in your home, so I like to over communicate with pet parents so I fully understand what makes your pet happy and safe.

I am available many weekends. I am experienced in training basic obedience and have worked with multiple rescue dogs.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets my entire life, and my family and friends look to me if they need me to dog sit (or pet sit) when they’re away or unavailable. I love animals, and so getting to take care of furry friends is an absolute treat!! I’m currently attending college, so monday and wednesday mornings im out of the house from 8-12. any other time, if given enough notice, i can be available for you and your pets! I live in a family home with my dog daisy, who is very friendly and about 14 years old now. She never fails to be entertained, and I love her with all my heart. I will do the same for your pets :)
“First, I've never used this type of service before. Alissa was accommodating, attentive, prompt and very caring for my dog, Lilly. If Alissa is the standard of the type of people that will care for my dog, I would use this service again, without a doubt. And, I wouldn't hesitate in booking Alissa, and recommending her to everyone.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, including my own pets since I was 10. I also worked at a dog kennel and as a dog grooming assistant when I was younger, and I’ve dog-sat for other families. These experiences taught me how to safely handle dogs, help with bathing, and keep them calm and comfortable in new places. What makes me different from many sitters is my experience with senior, disabled, and recovering dogs. I’ve cared for pets after surgery and illness, including staying up overnight to watch them, hand-feeding, helping them move around, and gently taking them outside. I also cared for my disabled Lab whose back legs didn’t work, helping with bathroom needs, cleaning, and daily comfort. Because of this, I’m very patient, attentive, and comfortable caring for dogs who need extra help, medications, or a slower pace. I treat every dog like family and focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily schedule. I complete my schoolwork through flexible online classes, which allows me to be home most of the day. Because of this, I’m able to give pets frequent attention, regular potty breaks, walks, feeding, and companionship throughout the day instead of leaving them alone for long periods. I’m used to caring for pets as part of my daily routine at home, including feeding, cleaning, and making sure they are comfortable and safe. This flexible schedule allows me to be reliable and fully present for the pets in my care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they are fed on time, have fresh water, get walks or potty breaks, and receive lots of attention and playtime. I also give any medications if needed and keep their space clean. I respect the client’s home and keep everything tidy, including cleaning up pet messes, washing bowls if needed, and making sure doors and gates stay secure. I send updates and photos so owners know their pet is safe and happy. My goal is to make pets feel relaxed and cared for while their family is away.

Do not hesitate to leave your babies with her. They’ll be loved 🥰”

“We are first time dog owners and we brought our 11 month old German Shepherd to Morgan after seeing her rave reviews. We can verify she deserves all five stars - she was able to quickly interpret our puppy’s behavior and gave us tips for after the boarding experience. We were nervous as well since this was the first time our dog would be away from us for an extended amount of time but Morgan made us feel at ease with her professional veterinary experience and ability to help along our puppy’s socialization. We boarded our dog for 6 days and Morgan was very communicative during the stay, with quick response to our messages. We highly recommend her and plan to use her again.”
