“Carol was EXCELLENT with our dog. She was available for a meet and great ahead of time and watched him for a full week. During that week, she treated him with the utmost love and attention, truly as if it were her own dog. She was also very responsive to messages and sent updates as requested. We felt so at ease and comfortable knowing our fur baby was in good hands while we traveled. One of the best rover experiences we’ve had to date! Will absolutely use her again.”
“Stan and Barbara took such great care of our dog for the week. They shared daily updates and pictures which we really enjoyed. We will definitely contact them again when we need a dog sitter. Happy to have found them using Rover!”
“Karina spent a full week caring for my dog J. They were a great fit together .. and I was very pleased with how much she enjoyed her time with him. Abundant communication throughout each day: pictures, videos, and notes about activities, and how he was adjusting. It was a great comfort to know he was being well cared for, and given so much positive attention & love. Truly above and beyond my expectations. I am sure J is looking forward to seeing Karina again.!!”
“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.”
“Audrey was great with our 17 year old puppers. He needs some extra TLC and she was kind and loving. Communication was great. Loved the fact that she sent pics/videos every day. And when we needed to change dates/times she was flexible. Even her cats were cool with our puppers. Already booked her for our next trip.”
“Lisa is amazing! She did a great job keeping us updated with pics & videos. Our dog has never looked this happy when we’ve gone away. She kept her active with walks & playtime with her pup. Highly recommend!”
“Michele is a wonderful sitter! I’ve used her several times to watch my dog, and each experience has been smooth and completely hassle-free. She’s very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times and always willing to work with my schedule. She carefully follows all of my instructions and consistently sends pictures and updates throughout the day without me even having to ask, which gives me great peace of mind. I always feel reassured leaving my dog in her care, and I’ll definitely continue booking with her in the future.”
“Gail did a great job with Raven. We usually are worried about whether Raven will adjust to a new sitter, but Gail quickly sent us pictures and a note letting us know how quickly she bonded with Raven and how calm she had become.”

We are big proponents of fetch and chase.
“Our dogs were very well while staying at Vivian and Katia’s house. They followed all the instructions related to food, walks, etc and we received plenty of pictures during the days we were gone. Katia was very kind and sweet with the dogs and they look happy and resting calmly all the time.”
“Paul was great looking after Nellie over thanksgiving! Sent a bunch of photos throughout the week of her with his family and gave updates throughout her stay. Nellie can be a bit shy initially and Paul gave her the time and patience to come out of her shell and fell more comfortable with his family. Will definetly use Paul again!”
“Samantha was incredible with our dog. Samantha agreed to care for our dog at the last minute, which we are incredibly grateful for. Poor pup was diagnosed with a UTI so Samantha administered medications to her and made sure she got out often to pee. Fantastic attention to our dog and great communication, highly recommend Samantha’s services!!”
“Jaclynn was great! I have a small dog (8 pounds). So I was pretty worried about leaving her. Jaclynn sent me updates. I can tell she really loves what she does. The back yard is great for dogs to run all day. I will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“Erin was great with our three dogs. It was their first time staying at someone else's house and they were acting up. She was willing to bring them back to my house and watch them there. I love that she was flexible and honest. She took great care of them. I was over three hours away and was so glad that she was able to come up with plan B and execute it. She was so flexible, accommodating and friendly. She made me feel at ease. We would definitely book her again.”
“Diana was absolutely amazing with Meeko! She took great care of our guy. She always shared updates, pictures and was responsive when we were checking in and even offered valuable advice being first time pup parents. Thank you so much for being so loving to him! We will definitely be going back 😊”
“Andres was absolutely fantastic with our dog, Lance! From the moment we dropped him off, he made Lance feel right at home in a comfortable, welcoming environment. It was clear Lance got plenty of attention and genuine care, and Andres kept us completely at ease while we were away. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog sitter!”
“Another great stay with Marisol! Our pup loves her and her family. Love the picture updates too that Marisol sends. Makes me smile each time seeing the great care and love Mosley is getting while we are away.”
“Mylene was wonderful with our puppy! She sent frequent updates and adorable pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing our little guy was in great hands. We felt completely comfortable and reassured throughout the entire experience.

“Alondra was amazing!! Our girl cat is very shy and nervous around strangers but I could tell they were both very very happy, comfortable, and well taken care of! Alondra took the time to play with them and sent adorable pictures”
“Kiara was absolutely wonderful. She was super thorough, sweet, kind, communicative, and thoughtful. She was on-time every single day, and really built a bond with my kitties. There were times while I was away I was super busy, but I knew my cats were in good hands as every single visit she sent me updates with photos, so I could look down at my phone, sigh, relax and know they were taken care of. She is also very nice and seems to be very educated on animals as she works closely with them and has her own. I 10/10 recommend her and would 100% trust her with your babies. My kittens are my world, so the absolute best care is nessesssary, and that best care is with Kiara.”
“I couldn't and wouldn't replace these two.people. They go above and beyond. One of my two cats is sick and Tamara and Nick just stepped up and cleaned up poop and puke as needed. Otherwise, I would likely have had to board the sick cat at the vet. Tamara and Nick gave me the help I needed which gave me peace and calmness so I could go on my business trip without worrying and being upset. The cats were certainly happy that they weren't separated nor boarded at the vet. Thank you Tamara and Nick--I am sincerely grateful for you.”
“Thank you for tending to Maggie, sorry it got stinky in here, didn’t realize a week without putting out the garbage would be so smelly! Again, thank you and we’ll book you again! Rhona”
“As always, Jodi did a fantastic job. I was out of the country for the third time, and she always made sure that my cat received great care on each drop-in visit. I really appreciated her communication and snapshots of my cat. I will continue to use her services.”
“Literally could not ask for a better rover!!! James checked in on Finley last minute for us and was fantastic. He was incredibly attentive and great with communication. He made sure to keep me updated and let me know exactly how Finley was doing while I was away. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone to do drop-ins!!!”

“My dogs are having a great time getting to know Jennie. She sends me videos of the dogs wagging their tails and playing. She also keeps me updated on how the visits are going and sends a bunch of photos which is great! Jennie is very communicative and responsive. She has attended to all of my requests and followed any instructions I have provided. Jennie has been a pleasure to interact with and I’m glad my dogs have responded so well to her care. I highly recommend Jennie!”
About: I’ve been caring for cats of all personalities since I was young, including shy, independent, playful, mischievous, and senior cats. I understand that every cat is different — some need space and quiet, while others want attention and play — and I adjust my approach to what makes them feel most comfortable. I’m experienced with feeding routines, litter care, and providing a calm, consistent presence so your cat feels safe and stress-free while you’re away. I’m also comfortable following specific feeding instructions and routines, including portion control or special care needs.
About: I had my beloved cat for 14 years. I took care of her through a serious sickness. I also have experience pet sitting other people’s cats and know how different each individual cats can be. I’m happy to fit within your kitty’s routines in order to make them feel the most comfortable while you are away.
About: I’m a reliable and caring college student who genuinely enjoys being around animals. I’ve had my two cats for the past two years, so I’m used to feeding them, cleaning litter boxes, playing with them, and making sure they’re happy and comfortable every day. I’ve also helped friends care for their dogs by feeding them, taking them on walks, playing with them, and keeping them company while they were away. Outside of pet care, I’ve worked as a private caregiver and in customer service, which has taught me how to be responsible, patient, and dependable. I know how important it is to trust someone with a loved one, whether it’s a person or a pet, and I’ll always treat your pets with the same care and attention I’d want for my own.
“Paola has watched my cat two times now, and both times went very well. She is great with communication, and always sends updates with cute videos/photographs. I feel relieved to have found her for when I am out of town!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Youngstown
“I cannot emphasize as much how wonderful Andres has been with Maui. He is truly kind, gentle and fun and Maui cannot wait to get out of the car quick enough to greet Andres. Thank you!”
“Debbie sent pictures and all I saw were 2 small dogs who did not miss their human Mom. There was play time (smiles and action), down time (cuddling and relaxing). I was always under the impression they sat in a corner and missed me with all their tiny hearts, but no - Debbie had them going the whole time! One fell asleep on the drive home due to the days action, the other needed every minute of tthe days action! Her property is amazing! Gorgeous setting only maybe two or three miles from downtown Bernardsville. So much safe space to run and play in. Exploring is at the top of Louie's requirements and he had a whole acre of fenced in yard to get all his Terrier on! Thanks so much Debbie! WE WILL BE BACK!!!!”

“David was amazing. We had a last minute outing planned that wasn't pup friendly. The night before David responded within minutes and offered to help out for a full 12 hours.

The day of David sent updates without any request and was understand with pick up time (we we're a little late due to some traffic). Our pup was happy and well taken care of.”

“Jonathan took great care of Sake! I always worry when Sake is left with someone unfamiliar to him, but Sake was well cared for, and I am happy to have found someone who is so conscientious and loving!”
“Charles was excellent taking care of Bailey. Bailey was anxious because she’s not used to being around other dogs. Charles made her comfortable and she warmed up to the other dogs and had a great stay! He kept me appraised of how she was doing. Excellent service, highly recommend Charles!!!”
“We left both of our dogs for a weekend stay with Sriram and Rekha and they did an amazing job taking care of them. We got plenty of pictures and updates. The dogs came back very happy and tired from all the playing. Will definitely reach out to them in the future for other stays.”
“June and her family are incredible with our dog. We’ve done short trips and long trips and always trust our dog is safe and happy with June. She communicates frequently with texts, photos, and videos so we never feel too far away. Thank you June!”
“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.”
“Audrey was great with our 17 year old puppers. He needs some extra TLC and she was kind and loving. Communication was great. Loved the fact that she sent pics/videos every day. And when we needed to change dates/times she was flexible. Even her cats were cool with our puppers. Already booked her for our next trip.”
“Michele is a wonderful sitter! I’ve used her several times to watch my dog, and each experience has been smooth and completely hassle-free. She’s very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times and always willing to work with my schedule. She carefully follows all of my instructions and consistently sends pictures and updates throughout the day without me even having to ask, which gives me great peace of mind. I always feel reassured leaving my dog in her care, and I’ll definitely continue booking with her in the future.”
“It was our dog's first night away from us and we feel so fortunate to have found Shaun S. Shaun and his family treated Betty with such love and took so much time to understand our dog, Betty's, routine and personality prior to her visit. It was so nice to receive so many pictures and even videos during her stay... he kept us posted the whole time. When I arrived to pick her up, Betty's tail was wagging as she "introduced" me to Shaun - along with his son and wife. What a lovely family and the perfect home to leave Betty. We already booked 2 more stays!”
About: We are a loving and lively household where we will snuggle and play fetch with your pup, take them to the dog park, and keep them happy and occupied. My husband and I have a very active goldendoodle, Bell, who is 9 years old. Neither of us remember a time when there wasn't a dog in the house growing up! We know that we are taking on no small task when we agree to be responsible for your furry friend. We will follow your instructions to a T and we realize that every doggo is their own unique individual with their own unique needs. We are pros when it comes to high-energy dogs with a mind of their own! I am a full-time parent of three and we have a dog of our own whom we are home with all day. Staying active with our doodle is an integral part of our daily routine and we would love to have even more walks, games of fetch, and tricks + treats to look forward to! We LOVE to love on your pet! In our home you can expect a minimum of two 20-minute walks a day, plus more upon request and some leash time in our back yard if they like to hang out and observe the world. We are big proponents of fetch and chase.
“Paul was great looking after Nellie over thanksgiving! Sent a bunch of photos throughout the week of her with his family and gave updates throughout her stay. Nellie can be a bit shy initially and Paul gave her the time and patience to come out of her shell and fell more comfortable with his family. Will definetly use Paul again!”
“Todd was awesome watching out dog! He took her on plenty of walks and spent a lot of time playing with her. He was great about staying in contact and sending updates, and was always very responsive. It was clear that our dog was well taken care of while we were away. I would definitely book with Todd again and highly recommend him!”
“Jaclynn was great! I have a small dog (8 pounds). So I was pretty worried about leaving her. Jaclynn sent me updates. I can tell she really loves what she does. The back yard is great for dogs to run all day. I will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“Erin was great with our three dogs. It was their first time staying at someone else's house and they were acting up. She was willing to bring them back to my house and watch them there. I love that she was flexible and honest. She took great care of them. I was over three hours away and was so glad that she was able to come up with plan B and execute it. She was so flexible, accommodating and friendly. She made me feel at ease. We would definitely book her again.”
“Diana was absolutely amazing with Meeko! She took great care of our guy. She always shared updates, pictures and was responsive when we were checking in and even offered valuable advice being first time pup parents. Thank you so much for being so loving to him! We will definitely be going back 😊”
About: As a lifelong animal lover, caring for pets has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. I have over 15 years of experience pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors, giving me a strong foundation in providing safe, attentive, and affectionate care. From energetic pups needing extra playtime to gentle seniors who prefer a calm, steady routine, I’m comfortable adapting to whatever your pet needs to feel right at home. I work from home full-time, which means your pet will have company, attention, and potability breaks throughout the day rather than being left alone for long stretches. While I don’t have pets of my own, I live with my sister and her Great Pyrenees mix—a super friendly, easygoing dog who loves meeting both people and other animals. When your pet is with me, they’ll be treated just like family. You can count on frequent updates, photo check-ins, and plenty of belly rubs so you can have complete peace of mind while you're away! Because I work from home full-time, pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine! Since I'm here throughout the day, guest pets are never left alone for long periods. Throughout the week, my flexible schedule allows me to easily accommodate feeding times, medication needs, and individual routines so your pet feels completely comfortable and cared for. In my home, your pet will be treated like a member of the family. Because I work from home full-time, guest pets enjoy constant supervision, regular potability breaks, and a relaxed, comfortable environment. We have a fenced in yard and a 4 year old Great Pyrenees mix. When caring for pets in your home, my top priority is maintaining their normal routine in the environment where they feel safest.
“Andres was absolutely fantastic with our dog, Lance! From the moment we dropped him off, he made Lance feel right at home in a comfortable, welcoming environment. It was clear Lance got plenty of attention and genuine care, and Andres kept us completely at ease while we were away. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog sitter!”
“Absolutely exceptional care for my pup. She’s shy and very attached to us, but it was clear from the pics, videos, and at pickup that she felt right at home. She was well taken care of and I loved getting daily updates. Will definitely use them again.”
“Another great stay with Marisol! Our pup loves her and her family. Love the picture updates too that Marisol sends. Makes me smile each time seeing the great care and love Mosley is getting while we are away.”
