“Caroline took absolutely amazing care of my puppy. She kept sending us photos and videos of him while in her care. He came back super happy with his time off ?. I would highly recommend her and would definitely be taking her up on future opportunities for care!”

“Ivanna was amazing with my baby and provided reliable and professional dog boarding in the Union NJ area. She created a safe and caring environment and followed all of her care instructions perfectly. My baby felt comfortable and happy throughout the entire stay, and the frequent photo updates gave me so much peace of mind. She came home relaxed, well fed, and clearly loved. I highly recommend Ivanna to anyone looking for trustworthy overnight dog boarding or a caring pet sitter, and I will definitely book with her again.”
“First time Rover doggy parent and she made me feel very comfortable offered video call and pictures. Once I arrived very welcoming and made me feel safe with leaving him. Provided pictured of them all playing and sleeping and gave normal updates (he stayed over night)”


“This is now the 4th time Ekaterina and her family have baby sat for my girl, Loretta. Loretta is very nervous and has really bad separation anxiety. But Ekaterina and her family are always so wonderful with her! With them, I never have to worry about Loretta when my family and I go away; she is in perfect hands! I get constant updates and pictures. She’s taken for walks constantly and I get updated on it all. Ekaterina, I say this all the time, but you and your family are such a blessing to us! You are our forever sitter! ♥️”

“Wow! What an exceptional experience. Melanie was so lovely and attentive. Our large breed dog Jerome had major surgery so we reserved Melanie months in advance for Thanksgiving travel. She was super accommodating, visited Jerome prior to the reservation and invited us to visit her home to assure us he’d be in a secure space as he continued his healing. She regularly sent adorable photos of Jerome to show us he was content. Melanie is a GREAT caregiver, not just a dog sitter. She’ll always be our first choice in the future.”

“First time using rover or ever leaving Cue with anyone for any amount of time. I reached out to Stacia before even making a full profile. She responded right away and scheduled a meet and greet. As soon as we walked in She was welcoming. Cue was a little overwhelmed at first because it was his first time but he warmed up within 10 mins and seemed happy. The house is super clean and smells good so we were sold right away. We left cue for 4 days with Stacia. She updated us about how he was doing and sent pics ?. I was very nervous about leaving him because he has an extremly sensitive stomach and loves to put stuff in his mouth he shouldn't so he has to be watched carefully. Stacia did a wonderful job making sure he was safe. She responds to texts extremely fast which gave me reassurance while away that he was ok. When we came to pick him up he was sitting with Stacia and didn't even get up to greet us lol we are confident he had a great time and was well taken care of. We will be leaving him a few times in daycare and when we travel. I am so happy we found Stacia ❤️ she is wonderful.”

“Jenny was great, patience, kind and communicative. She sent pictures and replied to our messages. Most importantly she was sweet to our fearful dog Tessa and made her feel safe. I would recommend her to anyone.”


“She was super nice and kept me updated about our furrbaby n he also loved there and played with other dogs! Will definitely recommend her to others who wants to leave their furbabies in good hands!”

“Veronica was fantastic! As an outdoor cat, finding someone who could care for Juno, with safety as the first priority, but also allow her to retain her sense of freedom and independence was always going to be a tough ask. We found that with Veronica - would highly recommend! Very kind, sent us lots of photos and even got Juno some special treats and toys.”

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Jessica! While I was traveling, my dog required unexpected medical attention, and Jessica went above and beyond to ensure she was well cared for. She immediately recognized the issue, took her to the vet, and kept me updated throughout the process, which gave me such peace of mind. Jessica treated my dog as if she were her own, providing excellent care, administering medications as instructed, and showering her with love and attention during her recovery. It's clear that Jessica is not only reliable and professional but also incredibly compassionate and dedicated. I am so grateful for her help and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Jessica, for everything!”


“Amanda sent us lots of photos and had everything packed up and ready when we arrived to pick her up. Our girl seemed happy as can be in the photos and when we picked her up. Thanks Amanda!”

“We are so glad we chose Jordy to care for Oreo while we were away. Jordy has a very calming demeanor and made us feel at ease. He made adjustments to make Oreo feel comfortable and sent us updates and pics. Especially,when he noticed Oreo's slight separation anxiety. We will definitely book him again in the future. Thanks again, Jordy!”


About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and truly enjoy bonding with pets because they feel like a safe space and the most genuine companions. I have 4+ years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, including feeding, playtime, walks, litter box cleaning, giving attention, and making pets feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. Friends, neighbors, and family have relied on me to care for their pets with patience, love, and reliability. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I make time throughout the week for feeding, walks, playtime, check-ins, and giving pets attention, comfort, and companionship while their owners are away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a calm environment. I carefully follow feeding schedules, routines, and any instructions provided by the owner. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior, keep their spaces clean, make sure doors and gates are secure, and give them patience, affection, and gentle care so they feel relaxed and protected.

He also sent daily updates, photos, and little notes about Bagheera’s mood and activities, which kept me completely relaxed while I was away. Another lovely part was Akshay’s dog, Sirius.

About: grew up around cats and have experience caring for cats for friends and family, including multi-cat households. I understand that every cat has a different personality, and I always try to make them feel comfortable, safe, and stress-free while their owner is away. I’m comfortable feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playing with cats, and giving them patience and attention at their own pace.
About: My willingness to care for your pet as if they were my own sets me apart from most walkers , not to mention walking dogs is a form of therapy for me . Im the owner and operator of my business and can adjust my hours to ensure all pets on my schedule will have the time and care they need . I honestly view pets as children and treat them as such in order to keep them safe and minimize if any mess they may or may not produce
About: What sets me apart is my ability to be both caring and dependable in moments that require real attentiveness—something I’ve developed through years of working in community programs, internships, and leadership roles. Whether I was leading a team project, supporting a friend, or organizing events through my cycling club, I’ve always been someone who shows up fully and handles responsibility with care. I bring that same energy to pet care—tuning into each animal’s needs, whether it’s keeping up with an energetic puppy or being patient with a senior pet. I’m calm, communicative, and take pride in making both pets and their owners feel secure and understood. As a recent grad preparing for law school and transitioning into the workforce, my schedule is relatively flexible—especially during the weekdays. Pet care has been a grounding and fulfilling part of my routine. It gives me the chance to stay active, present, and connected in a meaningful way while balancing studying and professional goals. I genuinely enjoy the rhythm of it, and I treat every booking with the same level of care and responsibility I bring to my academic and work commitments. Whether I’m in my home or yours, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I love making sure everyone—pets and people—feels comfortable, safe, and at ease. That’s something I’ve really practiced through leading Catching Wind, the cycling and wellness club I started in college. Creating a space where people felt welcomed, supported, and looked after—whether they were riding for the first time or just needed community—taught me a lot about patience, attentiveness, and how to care for different needs. I bring that same approach to pet care. I listen closely, follow instructions, respect your space, and aim to create an environment where your pet feels loved, relaxed, and understood.
“Amanda was amazing with my two pups! She was super attentive and made sure they were taken care of. Gave me the ease of mind knowing they were loved while I was at work! Will definitely have her again! 😊”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 2 years and truly love caring for animals. Along with my experience providing overnight care, I currently work as a veterinary assistant, where I care for both dogs and cats in a professional setting. Working in vet medicine has helped me become comfortable with pets of all ages, sizes, personalities, and needs, including senior pets and anxious animals. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and routine to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work full time, so I fit pet care around my work schedule. I’m available on weekends and some Thursdays, which I’ve listed in my availability. I make sure to plan ahead so I can be consistent and give pets proper care and attention when I’m with them. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible to help the pet feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get walks and bathroom breaks, and receive plenty of attention and playtime. I also keep their environment clean and safe and follow any specific instructions provided by the owner.

About: I’ve been a lifelong pet owner, with about ten years caring for my own dog, Bowie. Plus, I’ve regularly pet-sat and walked my cousins’ dogs whenever they’re on vacation. I’m really attentive and make sure every pet gets the personalized care they need. Since I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, pet care fits perfectly into my routine. I have plenty of free time available, making it easy for me to dedicate consistent and attentive care to pets. My home is spacious and has a large fenced yard. Plus, I have a very sociable dog named Bowie. All of these things contribute to a comfortable, safe, and welcoming home for the pets that I have pet-sat.
“Connor was amazing with my newly adopted dog, Wendy! I was very nervous leaving her as Wendy is still learning to trust new humans so she is a little anxious in new environments. But Connor understood, gave her space and kept her comfortable during her first doggy day care experience. She had fun socializing with his dog Kygo along with some other dog friends outside in his fully fenced backyard. Connor put me at ease with updates and pictures as well. I will be using Connor again in the future and definitely recommend his services to others!”

“Our daycare visit with Akshay was wonderful. He sent pictures of my dog making himself at home, as well as, playing with the other dogs. Looking forward to our next visit.”

“We had our first doggy daycare drop-off with Rosario and it was a great experience. Our 4-month-old Dachshund had a wonderful time and came home happy and tired. Rosario was professional, clearly experienced with puppies, and kept us updated throughout the day. Overall, a very positive experience for everyone—we’d definitely feel comfortable booking again.”

“Shirley is a wonderful sitter. She responds right away and leaves nothing to mystery. She followed all the instructions given and provided Moose with a safe and supervised environment for the day. Definitely would book again!”

“We had a great experience with Nechama! She was very communicative in advance of our dog’s stay, took great care of her, sent several updates over the course of the day, and was flexible on timing. Thanks so much, Nechama!”

About: At home we have always had dogs, I love, I take care of and I am passionate about being a temporary dad, I have experience in games, walks and canine understanding. I work from home, we are my partner and I are in charge of our 4-legged guests, we love going out to the park and have a wonderful day. We have a baby named Maya, super playful and willing to make friends. A very large park nearby and a lot of fun at home.
“This was Oreo’s second day here and it was just as amazing as the first. He is almost 12, very particular about people, and not the easiest dog to win over — so the fact that he was excited to go back says everything. As chaotic as our day was, it was such a huge relief knowing he was happy, comfortable, and in such good hands. Jackie’s flexibility, kindness, and obvious love for dogs really stood out. It is not easy to find someone you fully trust with your dog, especially one with a picky personality, but this truly feels like a safe, loving, and comfortable home for him. We are so grateful to have found Jackie and will absolutely continue to book again (already have) 😉”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 7. I’ve grown up in house with all the pets. Cats, dogs, birds, fish, hamsters. I’m currently on furlough for the summer. I’m very open. :) I am early bird and love post dinner walks. I am very flexible When on dog walks, I take the safety of your dog very seriously. I carry a pepper spray on me to ensure that if God forbid i'm walking your dogs and we got charged by an aggressive dog, I'll be able to keep your dog safe and out of harm's way. I also use body block methods to keep my clients dogs safe on walks in the event I'm charged by off leash dogs (which I have been hence the pepper spray precaution I take now) I tend to always avoid dogs on walks unless you point out to me any dogs you know that it's ok for your dog to greet and interact with. Other than that, I rather be safe then have your fur baby hurt. when I bring my lunch on me I always be sure I get something dog safe for me to eat God forbid your dog gets any ideas, they won't be harmed in that way.

Would definitely recommend her as a dogsitter.”

“My pup is so shy. I was so nervous leaving him but on his first I got pictures daily & he did very well. On his second stay he had no problem going right to the door. I felt so at ease leaving him. I would highly recommend!”

“From the second we met Joni I knew our dog Poppy would be in great hands. Poppy immediately felt comfortable with Joni and didn't even look back as we walked away during the drop off. Joni was in touch with us with pictures and messages about what Poppy was up to several times a day. We would recommend Joni to anyone who is looking for a loving and reliable pet sitter. Thank you Joni!!!!!”

“Rosario was wonderful - very communicative and kind. She sent photos and videos throughout the stay, and it was clear my Lab was having a blast. Her yard is huge and great for outdoor play. Highly recommend!”

About: We are a loving family who are excited to open our home to your pet. We were proud dog owners for 13 years, and caring for our beloved Brandin was a big part of our daily life. We truly enjoy being around dogs and creating a warm, safe environment where they feel comfortable and loved. Between myself and my husband if not both someone is usually at home. I only work part time and my husband is a NJ Firefighter which gives us free time to care for your pet. We have a fully fenced in yard where dogs can safely play, get fresh air, and we live in a friendly dog loving community that’s perfect for walks and outdoor time.
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Alison was wonderful to work with! She was kind, professional, and very communicative throughout the entire stay. She kept me updated daily with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely cared for my dog and made sure he was comfortable and well looked after. I truly appreciated her reliability and thoughtful updates, and I would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”

“What a relief to find Vincent who was able to board our German Shepherd mix while we went away for almost a week. He sent us updates and we were happy our pet wasn’t alone. He was safe and got along with their beautiful lab mix-Scarlett. Thank you Vincent!”

“Primavera was absolutely amazing with Max! From the moment she started caring for him, I could tell how much she genuinely cared about making sure he felt comfortable, safe, and loved. She took the time to get to know Max, understand his personality, routines, and needs, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. One thing I especially appreciated was how communicative she was. She regularly sent photos and updates, letting me know how Max was doing and keeping me informed about his behavior and activities. As a dog mom, those updates meant the world to me and helped me feel connected to him even when I couldn’t be there. It’s clear that Primavera truly loves animals and goes above and beyond to provide personalized care. Knowing that Max was in such attentive and caring hands allowed me to relax and enjoy my time away. I would not hesitate to book with her again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like family. Thank you, Primavera, for taking such wonderful care of my boy! 🐾❤️”

“I was SO nervous to leave my old lady with a stranger, but Jessica and her pack were a perfect fit!! She clearly received loads of love and attention, as evidenced by the pictures and reports I regularly received, and we couldn't be happier. Thank you, Jessica, for giving Lily an even better vacation than we had!”

“Let me start by saying this was my first time using Rover ever. Andrew was so helpful and reassuring and explained everything to me. Additionally, while I was away he kept me up to date with texts and pictures of Finn. Finn had a great time with Andrew and you can just tell Andrew knew exactly how to best care for my puppy. Thank you so much!!”

“Darrin, Debra, and Emily cared for our most precious treasure Benjamin with much love, attention to detail, and dedication. We are very grateful for their professionalism, and for the good treatment that our English Bulldog received during this stay at their home. We recommend and will request your services again in the future.”
