“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.”

“Jennifer took good care of our dog. She was very communicative and kept us updated with everything. I will recommend her to anyone that is looking for some one who can take good care of their dog.”

“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.”

“Jennifer took great care of my black lab, Finnley for a few days while we were away for a long weekend at a family wedding. I don’t leave him often, so finding a local sitter that I felt good about took some research. I found Jennifer through Rover and saw great reviews. I appreciated getting photos while we were away to see that he was having a good time as well:-).”

“I can’t thank Lynn enough for the outstanding care they provided to my dog, Scout, during the month-long stay! Lynn went above an beyond on Scout's stay when Scout developed an ear infection during their stay. Lynn immediately noticed the signs and took the time to schedule a vet appointment, ensuring that my dog received the necessary treatment. I was so relieved to know my dog was in such capable and caring hands during this time.”

“My dog can be a little tough, but Britany took good care of her! She and Her family made sure that my anxious pup felt comfortable! I’d be happy to have my poodle stay with her again!”

“Kristin was amazing! Not only did she accept my reservation last minute, but she also sent photo updates 2-3 times a day throughout the stay. Her professionalism really exceeded my expectations. If you are looking for a dog sitter in the area, I would highly recommend Kristin!”
“We had a really great experience with Irem! They were super easy to communicate with and took great care of my dog. I loved getting updates and photos—it made me feel so much more relaxed while I was away. My dog came back happy and well cared for. Would definitely book again!”

“Rhea and Michael were absolutely the best! My dog Frankie is 11 years old, he doesn’t like being around a lot of other dogs, he was very comfortable spending the week with Rhea and Michael while we were in the Bahamas. Rhea sent a lot of pictures and I could see how happy he was! They took great care of him and kept me updated! I will definitely be using them again!”

“Karalyn was fantastic with Cookie! Booking through Rover was seamless, and her communication throughout the stay was wonderful. We loved receiving daily updates and pictures, which gave us total peace of mind. Cookie was happy and well cared for—we’ll definitely be booking with Karalyn again!”

“We are extremely pleased with this service. We found Marisol, John & Avi through it. They made the entire experience easy. From our meet and greet, to leaving our 2 dogs with them. They are gracious, accommodating and knowledgeable about handling animals. They communicate with you daily. Our dogs came home happy and relaxed. We will definitely use them in the future.”


“So thankful to have found someone for our Keira. Morgan responded quickly for a short notice weekend trip and was quick to respond to my inquiries while we were gone as to how Keira was doing. We usually use a local kennel but have found that she comes home sad. She needs a lot of human interaction. Without her pack, she gets lonely. She came home much happier this time. Morgan and her family obviously made Keira feel very at home.”

“We had such a great experience with Nataliya and her family. They took wonderful care of my dog and kept me updated the whole time, which I really appreciated. When my dog wasn’t feeling well, they were especially attentive and caring, and it honestly gave me so much peace of mind. You can tell they truly care and treated my baby like part of their family. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for loving, reliable care.”


About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life, from tiny puppies to senior pets, so I understand the care, patience, and attention each stage requires. I have also worked with pet rescues and fostered several dogs while they awaited their forever homes. For years, I’ve been the go-to sitter for friends and family, caring for everything from high-energy puppies to shy rescues. I’m experienced with administering medications, crate training, leash walking, and working with anxious or energetic pets. I work at home most days during the week. I will plan my day around whether I have a special pet visitor, dog walk, or cat visit. In my home, pets are treated like family. I provide a safe, clean, and cozy environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and walks. Pets are never left unattended for long periods, and I always follow your routines for feeding, exercise, and rest. Whether it’s snuggles on the couch or some playtime, I make sure your pet feels right at home. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your space and your pet’s routine. I follow your instructions carefully to keep things consistent and stress-free — from feeding schedules to favorite walking routes. I make sure pets get the attention, exercise, and affection they need, while also keeping your home tidy and secure.

“Arabella was wonderful. Our cat wants to move out and live with her. She was so great on keeping us posted on activities while we were away. She obviously loves cats and it shows in the way she treated our Catrina. We think she’s a cat whisperer!”

“Andrew was fantastic I am so glad we booked him to take care of Buggy! From the initial interaction and meeting Buggy was comfortable with him which made me feel so much better about knowing he would be taken care of well. Andrew gave us great updates about how he was doing each visit and made sure to include lots of pictures! We will definitely be using Andrew again when we need to be away in the future!”


About: My very first pet was a cat, and my love and understanding of cats continues to grow with me. From spontaneous antics of kittenhood to administering medication in their senior years, I’ve seen many cats through it all and look forward to meeting many more.
“Sarah was excellent! She sent multiple pictures every day not only of my cats but also feeding station shots, etc to give me a high level of comfort. My two cats clearly loved her based on the pictures and even my very shy cat started greeting her at the door. I found Sarah to be highly responsible, easy to work with and a real pet lover! I would definitely use Sarah again.”


“Thank you, Joe, for going above and beyond on this last visit and finding a creative way for Sebastian to take his meds. It was a life saver in the moment. I appreciate you!”


“We had a great experience with Allie! She took such good care of our cat and kept everything so easy and stress-free. Communication was smooth, and she was always easy to reach. We’re very happy with her service and would definitely recommend her!”

“I have too many adjectives to describe Colleen. She was extremely trustworthy, communicative, accommodating, caring, thoughtful, kind, responsible and prepared. I always stress when I go away and leave my girls but Colleen alleviated that feeling almost entirely. She even stayed longer than needed the first night. I am very happy with how my girls were treated and will definitely pick Colleen as my sitter next time.”

“Pam was great, very timely visits and lots of updates. My kitties looked very content in their daily photos and I felt like they were in very good hands while we were away. Definitely highly recommend and will hire again!”


“Avital was great my Moonbelle. It was my first time leaving her and was very nervous. Avital reassured me by sending me pictures daily and updating me on her visits. They had a lot of playtime. Thank you so much! Moonbelle and I appreciated having her take care of her while I was away.”


“Irem does a great job. This is the second time she has taken care of my cats. It’s nice to know that they are in good hands while I’m away and she always leaves things tidy.”


About: My Cat Care Experience 🐱 Cats have been a part of my life since I was young. I grew up with two cats and have always loved getting to know their very different personalities, routines, and quirks. More recently, I rescued a kitten named Sallie, which gave me firsthand experience caring for a young cat and helping her feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a new environment. That experience made me appreciate even more how much patience and trust matter when caring for cats. I understand that cats often need a different approach than dogs — some want all the attention they can get, while others prefer having their space and getting comfortable with someone on their own terms. I’m happy to follow your cat’s normal routine, including feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, and, of course, plenty of attention and affection when they want it! I also know how stressful it can be leaving your cat in someone else’s care, so I’m happy to provide pictures and updates during every visit. My goal is to keep your cat comfortable in their own environment and give you peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾

About: My family are all animal lovers and have had cats and dogs all my life, starting at 10. Our first cat was Toby, a beautiful golden boy, and when I was old enough, I afopted two kitties called Bonkers and Casey. Bonkers was named Bonkers for a reason, but that made me love him even more.

About: I’ve cared for cats for more than 20 years and have experience with a wide range of personalities, ages, and routines. I have an 11-year-old calico of my own, so I understand how particular cats can be about their space, schedule, and people. I’m happy to handle feeding, litter care, playtime, companionship, and oral medications, and I’ll always follow your cat’s normal routine as closely as possible.
“Wendy was amazing! She took excellent care of my cat, I appreciated her so much! She made sure my fur baby was happy. She sent me lots of pictures which really eased my mind and I appreciated. Definitely will use her again next time I need a cat sitter!!!”


“Jennifer is an amazing sitter and took very good care of Kingsley. I was worried I wouldn’t find a good cat sitter, but she checked all the points on my list. Very caring, friendly and respectful. 10/10”


About: I’ve always had cats and understand how different each one can be. I’ve also cared for rescue cats, including one with injuries, so I understand the patience and attention some cats need. I’ve cared for multiple cats at once and have experience administering insulin injections for a diabetic cat, so I’m comfortable with medications, feeding routines, and litter care. I’m very attentive and make sure your cat gets real care and attention every visit. You’ll always receive updates so you know they’re safe and doing well. Drop-in visits (30 mins) Quick visit (15 mins) $15 Overnight care in your home (Sun–Wed)
“Aletris was amazing! They were incredibly attentive and sweet with our kitty and went above and beyond our expectations. Aletris took the job very seriously and made sure nothing would get in their way of taking care of our fur baby, (even if that means resorting to biking to our house when their family needed their car)! We can’t express how happy we are to have found Aletris and I know our kitty felt the same way! Will definitely be hiring them again for future pet sitting needs!”

“I was passing thru the area and wanted to make a brief stop to see the lilacs at the NJ Botanical Gardens. Since I read that dogs were not allowed, I needed to find a trustworthy sitter nearby. Wenxin to the rescue! She was so sweet and attentive, and my shy Havanese quickly warmed up to her. Should I ever be in the area again, I will definitely bring Cleo back!”


“Milo was well cared for and loved with Christine. She sent pics and videos. We were also running late and she has no problem with it. Fantastic sitter we would definitely use again.”

“Our little golden Havanese had a wonderful time with Irem and her husband! She spent the day with them on Friday, and was eager to go back the next day. She made a new friend, a beautiful golden retriever, who she enjoyed spending the day with. Irem gave her plenty of snuggle time, and she seemed perfectly content both days when we picked her up. This was our first Rover experience, and we were grateful it went so well! Thank you, Irem!”
About: Hi! I'm A lifelong dog lover and dedicated pet parent who understands how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your dog!

About: Hi, my name is Kimmie. I am an experienced veterinary technician(almost 21yrs; although I'm currently taking a break from teching at the moment), and I am an extreme animal lover.

I have a large fenced in yard that your dogs will love playing in. There is also a-lot of places in my neighborhood that I can take them for walks. I have been working with animals for years now as mentioned, whether it be as a vet tech or pet sitting, and I absolutely love it!! I do pet sitting/ dog walking outside of Rover as previously mentioned again if you wanted more references (than the 2 reviews I have on my page here I would be happy to provide you with them). I will take great care of your animals as if they are your children, which let's face it they basically are. I can take care of any special needs or elderly dogs or cats( I just can’t board cats but can house sit or do drop in visits for them due to someone who lives upstairs from me is highly allergic), give injections,&’ and any type of medication. It's one of the pluses of being a vet tech and pet sitting, not only because I get to work more with the animals I love so much, but because I am trained to know what to do in certain situations if need be, and what behaviors to look for if god forbid something was off or going on with your pet. This hasn't happened yet and I hope that it doesn't but I am always prepared just in case. And if they need anything at all more than I can do myself , I can go to the animal hospital with them (whether that be the one you bring them too or call the doctor/owner of the practice I work for if need be ; whichever you’d prefer) to make sure they are getting the best care and love while in my care. I am open to all different breeds and ages of dogs & cats, including puppies/kittens and senior animals as well. I am always able and willing to watch other little pets such as Guinea pigs, hamsters, ferrets, and other little fur babies like those. Your pet will be in great hands if you choose to use me as their pet sitter/dog walker. I really have a passion for caring for and being around animals. It is my happy place and it is what I truly love to do! I have loved them since I was a young child and feel so lucky to be able to do what I do today and work with them. So just know that if you decide to choose me to care for your fur babies, they will be in the best hands! ♡ Right now I am taking a break from Teching. So I'm open more for pet sitting. I can house sit if it’s just for a few days on a weekend -Friday night thru Monday night sometimes Tuesdays depending on the weekend because I work every other Tuesday 3pm- about 7:30ish. There are insists where I could house sit for a whole week it would just depend on the week. Otherwise days I work I can stop by before work, depending on location during my lunch break, and after work if it’s for just drop in visits or dog walking/ cat care.. like I mentioned earlier, I do work every other Tuesday and if I’m working that Tuesday then I am off that Thursday. (I know it’s a bit confusing) but my days off I’m available to stop in or dog walk more times per day even when I have work. But aside from the Tuesdays I work, I only ever really work till 4:30-5pm. The every other Tuesday I work 3pm-7-7:30pm(ish) so I could drop in, in the morning, before work, and after work. I can explain it to you better if you reach out to me for a pet sitting/boarding job if you are confused by my schedule because as I said it is quite confusing. Any other questions you may have regarding anything please reach out to me and I try to respond asap if not right away! 😊 The only time it may take me a little bit longer to respond is if I’m at work but even then I try to respond very quickly definitely within 8hrs of getting the message which as I said would only be if I was at work. I have a nice big fenced in back yard where they are able to run around and play. I am unfortunately unable to board cats just dogs and puppies. I do not have any animals of my own right now ( unfortunately due to not being able to have them where I live but I am able to board here one pet or if it’s say two dogs same family) so it would just be your pet with me to receive all my attention and love if they were staying with me at my home. If they need help (meds for older pets or any pet with medical issues/ if they need help going upstairs to go outside not a problem either esp since there’s only 3 or 4 steps up/down into the backyard. Or if you use a crate for them for sleeping at night that’s not a problem either. Any rules you have set for your pet I will follow them. For example if you do not want them on the couch or bed then then I’d follow your guidelines or if you like them to be walked there’s plenty of places I can take them for walks on too. It’s of course whatever you prefer when it comes to anything regarding the care of your fur baby!! If I am house sitting of course same thing however you normally do things with you’re pets I will follow (ex: not allowed on couches or beds; anything at all that you prefer or do with them I will do the same)!!

About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. Growing up my family and I have adopted 3 dogs. I absolutely love working with dogs - big, small, old, hyper, I’m your gal! I have a couple years of experience working at a doggy day care as well as some dog bathing services. I’m a junior currently attending Ramapo College. I commute to class and am available for multiple days a week. I’m usually always available on the weekends! I have a fenced yard for my dog but she is not the friendliest. I tend to bring her to the dog park where she gets along with other dogs in a bigger/more open area.

“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.”

“Jennifer took great care of my black lab, Finnley for a few days while we were away for a long weekend at a family wedding. I don’t leave him often, so finding a local sitter that I felt good about took some research. I found Jennifer through Rover and saw great reviews. I appreciated getting photos while we were away to see that he was having a good time as well:-).”

“I can’t thank Lynn enough for the outstanding care they provided to my dog, Scout, during the month-long stay! Lynn went above an beyond on Scout's stay when Scout developed an ear infection during their stay. Lynn immediately noticed the signs and took the time to schedule a vet appointment, ensuring that my dog received the necessary treatment. I was so relieved to know my dog was in such capable and caring hands during this time.”

“Kristin was amazing! Not only did she accept my reservation last minute, but she also sent photo updates 2-3 times a day throughout the stay. Her professionalism really exceeded my expectations. If you are looking for a dog sitter in the area, I would highly recommend Kristin!”
“We had a really great experience with Irem! They were super easy to communicate with and took great care of my dog. I loved getting updates and photos—it made me feel so much more relaxed while I was away. My dog came back happy and well cared for. Would definitely book again!”

“Karalyn was fantastic with Cookie! Booking through Rover was seamless, and her communication throughout the stay was wonderful. We loved receiving daily updates and pictures, which gave us total peace of mind. Cookie was happy and well cared for—we’ll definitely be booking with Karalyn again!”

“We are extremely pleased with this service. We found Marisol, John & Avi through it. They made the entire experience easy. From our meet and greet, to leaving our 2 dogs with them. They are gracious, accommodating and knowledgeable about handling animals. They communicate with you daily. Our dogs came home happy and relaxed. We will definitely use them in the future.”


“So thankful to have found someone for our Keira. Morgan responded quickly for a short notice weekend trip and was quick to respond to my inquiries while we were gone as to how Keira was doing. We usually use a local kennel but have found that she comes home sad. She needs a lot of human interaction. Without her pack, she gets lonely. She came home much happier this time. Morgan and her family obviously made Keira feel very at home.”


About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life, from tiny puppies to senior pets, so I understand the care, patience, and attention each stage requires. I have also worked with pet rescues and fostered several dogs while they awaited their forever homes. For years, I’ve been the go-to sitter for friends and family, caring for everything from high-energy puppies to shy rescues. I’m experienced with administering medications, crate training, leash walking, and working with anxious or energetic pets. I work at home most days during the week. I will plan my day around whether I have a special pet visitor, dog walk, or cat visit. In my home, pets are treated like family. I provide a safe, clean, and cozy environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and walks. Pets are never left unattended for long periods, and I always follow your routines for feeding, exercise, and rest. Whether it’s snuggles on the couch or some playtime, I make sure your pet feels right at home. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your space and your pet’s routine. I follow your instructions carefully to keep things consistent and stress-free — from feeding schedules to favorite walking routes. I make sure pets get the attention, exercise, and affection they need, while also keeping your home tidy and secure.
“Lisa was very kind and caring with my Junie. She sent me texts and pictures and I was put at ease immediately. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to using her services again.”

“Monica and Kelvin provided first class service. We appreciated the opportunity to meet with Kelvin before boarding our dog, Mike. We especially appreciated the photos of our dog, Mikey, during his stay. Scott and Liz”

“We travel frequently for long trips and our usual sitter was not available this time and so we chose to use Rover and found Ankita and her beautiful family . From the time of meet and Greet I knew that I couldn’t have found a better dog loving home for my coco . The love care and affection they showered on coco was evident from the multiple daily updates we received in form of videos and messages . Coco was the happiest puppy ever and I bet she is going to miss them so much - especially their Dog Panther who is such a sweet heart and their little son who became coco’s best friend and companion to play all day :) Coco has found a new second home and we will surely be using them again at our next time away”

“Christina and Nick watched our large Rottweiler for 6 days. Christina provided very helpful and detailed updates multiple times per day. Meet and greet, pick up, and drop off were all agreed upon and followed. Wonderful hosts - thank you!”

“Elizabeth and Oleg were great! They provided updates of our dog Zion and were flexible when our pickup plans changed due to travel. Would absolutely recommend!”

“Kira had such a great time at Maureen’s for her 2 night stay! Maureen gave Kira lots of attention which we appreciated since Kira can be a bit anxious. Maureen also watches Kira on a regular basis for doggy day care and is always great with her! We would not hesitate to have Kira over for a future stay!”

“Thank goodness for John. The original dog sitter canceled last minute due to unforseen circumstances, and John was able to take care of our boy without problems. He sent updates and made sure he was happy.”

“Pia’s stay with Charles was great. He is an awesome person who truly loves the pets he cares for. He shared pictures time to time keeping us informed of Pia’s well being. I am grateful to have met Charles and highly recommend him. We are definitely returning next time Pia needs a break from us 😊”

“Ruby had the time of her life at Brittny's. She was SMILING in photos Brittny sent us. Brittny has a great home with an amazing backyard for the dogs to play in. Her family dog was a great sibling for Ruby. I think Ruby misses Benji! Thank you Brittny and your whole family for taking such good care of our girl. Will definitely board Ruby with you again in the future if possible!”
