House Sitting in Washington Township

“James kept us informed, kept our high energy dog happy and cared for. He took her on walks where she met other dogs to play with. He took her with him on short trips out of town. He followed feeding and care instructions well. He left our home in great shape, took out the garbage and kept everything clean and ready for us. He was very conservative of any resources to which we gave him permission to use or to consume. We highly recommend James!”

“I highly recommend CeeCee for your pet and home sitting needs. We hired her to look after our overly affectionate cat and our quirky pit-mix pup while out of town for 6 days. CeeCee was communicative, sent pictures, and took care of needs as requested, including watering plants. She kept the house tidy, even throwing in a load of wash at the end of her stay. We will definitely be repeat customers for future pet sitting needs.”

“Charlie is amazing!! He took great care of our dog Kira, ensuring she was well-fed, exercised, and given lots of attention. He was attentive to her needs, especially given her sensitive stomach, and kept us updated with regular check-ins. We felt completely at ease knowing she was in good hands. Highly recommend! Let me know if you want any tweaks!”

About: I've had a love for animals as long as I can remember. As a young child finding strays , cats or dogs and caring for them until the owners where found. Love these fur babies and will care for them like my own. I am currently unemployed and love animals and walking -perfect fit! My schedule is open to help when needed. Would love to schedule a meetup with your fur baby. Each pet has its own routine to be discussed prior to my care. Will follow the needs of each pet individually and any additional requirements as needed.

“I was so nervous about leaving our dog. My hunting partner. After I met yvette that all went away. She cared for my Izzy like she was hers . Long walks and lots of attention. Def use yvette. I will be again soon.”

“Stephanie loved my girls as if they were her own. They were well cared for, our home was perfect and as we met on the way out she has a calming and relaxing smile. Stephanie will be one of our family now ??”

About: With over 15 years of hands-on experience, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages—rambunctious puppies, playful adults, and sweet seniors. I previously owned my own dog and now work closely with domestic and wild animals at an animal shelter, where I’ve developed the ability to build trust with new pets quickly. My home is currently pet-free, so I’d be thrilled to host your dog and give them my full attention and affection. Whether your pup needs structured care, medication, or just extra belly rubs, I bring patience, intuition, and genuine love to every visit. I currently have a very open and flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive and consistent care throughout the day. I was recently laid off and now work limited hours outside of the house, so I spend most of my time at home. This makes pet care a perfect fit for my lifestyle—I truly enjoy the companionship and having a pet around keeps my routine joyful and active. I'm able to accommodate feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special needs your pet may have. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where animals can relax and feel at ease. My home includes central air conditioning and heat to keep pets comfortable and safe during peak seasons, and there’s an elevator available for animals with mobility issues. I take time to build trust with each pet, follow their routines closely, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident while you're away. Your pet will be treated with the same love and care I’d give my own.

“Milena stayed at our house with our 2 dogs and she was great! We came home to happy dogs and a clean house! She kept us posted with pictures and updates. I highly recommend her and look forward to booking her in the future!!”

“Pete is one of the best dog sitters I've ever worked with. He's very much a dog person and had an intuitive sense for how my dog Bandit was doing. He was very effective in taking care of Bandits' needs including some special medical foods and procedures required. And he's flexible -- he was able to also take care of my daughter's dog Brandy for some of the time while he was also taking care of Bandit. He also is an effective communicator and regularly sent us texts and pictures, as well as knowing when to ask questions if there might be a problem that arose. He's just very good. I highly recommend Pete (although please don't hire him when I need him). Thanks.”

“Amanda is awesome! She took great care of our senior dog while we were on vacation. She was extremely patient and attentive to her needs, gave her all her meds, and plenty of walks and attention. She was also very communicative which helped ease our anxiety about leaving our dog. I highly recommend her!”

“Absolutely amazing. She is wonderful and both are pets loved her!!!”

About: I have been taking care of my dog for about 7 years now, I have been feeding him and playing with him, I love them. I work a part time job so in my free time I like walking dogs and seeing other dogs and everything they have to give. I have a fence so he can play when he wants on the deck or if he wants a walk. If they misbehave I can crate them so they can learn.

About: Hello there, my name is Tatiana and I'm currently a health coach with very flexible hours. I am a responsible caring owner of a maltipoo. I have dog sat and taken care of dogs since I was a little girl. I love dogs of all sizes and breeds as well as a variety of other pets. Your pet will be loved and taken well care of just as they would with you full attention would be in tact due to love for pets and dogs. I do believe owners should be comfortable with who cares for their dogs, because they're family practically, so a meet and greet is no issue. Dogs are adorable and walks are too. :) Luckily I have a very flexible schedule allowing me to spend time with my pets and family. I’m fortunate enough to enjoy my time taking care of other loved pets too. I make sure pet owners feel comfortable with me first before entrusting me with their fur babies. Logging in when I see they’re pets and sticking to my available schedule as we are still entrusting each other.

About: Note: We are currently training our new dog so best services to book are drop-in visits, walks, or sitting at your home. However, some exceptions may be possible for care at our home, feel free to message me to explore, thank you! 👋 Spoil your well-behaved pup in a lap of luxury with a HUGE 1-acre fenced yard that they can roam free in anytime they’d like. Conveniently located just off Route 17, we are a mature, responsible, and drama-free dog auntie and uncle who are both home full time — me as the primary caretaker, and my partner as a backup (if you’d like). It helps make coverage more reliable, and play time feel a lot more like family time for your pup (except no kids). We are not the types to be addicted to our phones because we believe in being present when spending time with fur friends. We also typically don’t take in too many so that we can provide more attention, and be available when you need us. It’s quality over quantity for us! :) Before requesting a stay, please read my “About” section to see if we are a good fit for each other! Ps. I don’t charge if you are late to pickup by a few hours, so don’t worry about that. New Rover Customers: Use my referral link to get $20 off your first service https://www.rover.com/sit/melindac23 I do sometimes get requests to watch pups in NYC but my spouse and I are both currently home in NJ full-time. I believe in mutual respect, gentle care, and transparency, and would treat your pup the same way I would want mine to be cared for. My friends’ furbabies affectionately call me “auntie” :) I understand how being away from your loved one can cause stress or anxiety (unfortunately, we had a bad experience with a sitter once, so I personally relate to this feeling all too well). I can provide multiple updates a day (or less) if you’d like — photos, videos, and even video calls — whatever will help you feel comforted that they are safe and well cared for. We have a unique property, a huge, park-like fully-fenced yard on a cul-de-sac street (but the fence is only 4 ft high, please confirm that your dog cannot jump it). I have a medium size crate if your pups like them. Multiple dog beds throughout the house and no more than 5 stairs anywhere. I’m equipped to take in two dogs at a time, but I don’t have to if you prefer your pup to have a solo stay.

“I am very happy to find Lisbeth, she takes good care of my dog Ruby. Ruby is a senior with weak legs and slightly difficult to handle but, I have no worries with Lisbeth.”

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong love and hands on experience with dogs of all ages. I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a kid, continued through college, and now I have a senior dog of my own; so I truly understand the patience and attentiveness older dogs need. Whether it’s a puppy or a senior, I tailor my care to each dog’s personality and needs. I treat every dog like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I am currently home for the summer from college so I have a lot of flexibility. My daily/weekly routine will be very open to caring for your pets! When I care for pets through walks or drop-in visits, my priority is making them feel happy and comfortable. For walks, I follow your dog’s pace and routine, whether they prefer a brisk walk or a slow lap around the block. During drop ins, I make sure they get fresh water, food (if needed), playtime, and lots of affection. I follow any specific instructions you leave to keep your pet’s routine consistent and stress free.

About: I treat every pet like family! I have experience caring for playful puppies, sweet seniors, and everything in between. I’m patient, gentle, and love tailoring care to each pet’s unique needs—whether that’s extra snuggles, slow walks, or basic training. Your pet will be safe, loved, and happy with me! Caring for pets is something I truly enjoy, and I make time for it every day! I’m available daily, except Mondays–Wednesdays from 3:30–6:45pm. I’m always happy to work around your pet’s needs outside of that! I treat every pet like my own and make sure their environment is safe and cozy. I always check that collars and harnesses are secure before walks, keep an eye on surroundings during outdoor time, and follow your pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. Trust and safety are at the heart of how I care.

About: For the past two years, I’ve been the trusted go-to sitter for my friend’s dog while they travel frequently. My flexible schedule allows me to be readily available when needed, ensuring pets receive consistent care and attention. I treat every dog as if they were my own—always refreshing their water, making sure they have enough food, and spending quality time playing with them. Whether it’s a quick visit or an extended stay, I prioritize their happiness and well-being! As a self-employed professional with a super flexible schedule, I can easily plan my day around pet care. Whether it’s a quick drop-in visit or a longer stay, I have the flexibility to adjust my routine and ensure pets get the attention they need. Their well-being is always a priority, and I’m able to accommodate last-minute requests or extended stays when needed! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I always refresh their water, ensure they have enough food, take them for walks or playtime, and provide plenty of attention so they feel at ease while their owner is away. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I’m committed to making sure they’re happy, safe, and well cared for in their own familiar environment.

About: I have been caring for animals my entire life. As a 10 year old child, I was fostering dogs while managing my schoolwork and evolving social life. I have had and cared for many different types of pets, including (but not limited to): dogs, cats, birds, hermit crabs, and hamsters. As a 28 year old adult, I now have a sweet dog named Zelda (GSD/Husky mix, 5yrs, 60lbs), whom I adopted at 3 months. I trained her myself and had her fully housebroken with no accidents within 5 months. I have also cared for and assisted in training my mother's dog Sumo (St. Bernard, ~9yrs, 165lbs. With my life experience and graduate degree in psychology, I am very capable of handing whatever comes my way. I look forward to meeting you and your baby! I am working part-time on the weekends and on Tuesday, Wednesdays, and Thursday nights. Therefore, I have a great deal of time to dedicate to your loved ones and make sure they are well cared for! I regularly take my dogs out for relief and exercise in my yard. They get regular feedings and water bowl cleanings to make sure they are well fed and hydrated. When it gets hot, I make sure to add ice cubes to their water, provide them with pupsicles (frozen dog safe ice cream!), and keep the AC running. I always make sure to build in playtime and snuggles to make them feel loved and cared for.

“Emily was a wonderful Rover sitter! She watched our dog for a few hours, kept in constant contact, and Shayna absolutely loved her (as evidenced by a super sweet photo of Shayna sleeping on her lap!) We will definitely be reaching out to Emily again in the future.”
