Talia helped me care for my two dogs. Amber is very petite and a bit of a diva (she is very needy and does not like getting her paws wet or dirty) and Bouzer who was an older dog. She helped me walk both animals and she has watched them numerous times. She has also helped me give Bouzer his insulin shot for his diabetes so she is well trained in dealing with dogs who may have special needs or that are older. She is a very sweet girl who loves animals and is very nice.

Doris is excellent with my puppy! I was traveling for work and having her walk my dog regularly during the day put me at such ease. She is trustworthy and truly cares for my dog. He got a ton of exercise and was a happy puppy when I got home. Thank you so much, Doris!!!

Dulce is extremely responsible and knows so much about pets. She will take great care of your dog and send pupdates to ease the anxiety of leaving your pet while you’re gone. She has given me advice and helped me teach my dog new commands.

My wife and I adopted our dog five years ago, at the height of the pandemic. Of course, the only way to socialize her was during walks. Even then she was tentative, if not on the defensive, when engaging with other dogs and their owners. This was by no means the case with Ron and his pup. I’ve since witnessed that Ron is especially good with all dogs, and his dog is evidence of this. Janey‘s anxiety and hyper-attachment to us remains. Ron’s offer to take care of her for a long-weekend was the only one we considered (and accepted more than once.) Not only are we sure Janey will always be in excellent hands, but we’re confident that she’ll feel safe and secure in our absence.

I've been able to rely on Woanjun to take care of my little Topaz a handful of times now! He's wonderful with her and so attentive. Whether it be taking her for a walk, playing with her, or just keeping her company, I know Topaz is in good hands with June.

Julie was so great! She was really responsive through text, and was available on short notice when we suddenly needed to find someone to let our pup Lola out while we were out for the night. I received pictures of all three of our animals and had no issues. It was only one visit so not much to report, but would definitely book with her again. Thank you so much Julie!

About: Hi! I am a UCONN graduate from the school of Fine Arts currently working near Union, NJ. I am an animal lover who has lived with pets my entire life. I have owned and/or cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, fish, reptiles, rodents, chinchillas, and chickens. I offer pet sitting (over-night and daytime drop-ins), dog walking and pet care. I have a valid class D driver's license as well as my own vehicle so transportation is easy. I love animals of all ages, sizes and disabilities and I have lots of experience walking large dogs! I would love to get to know your furry friends! I am a freelance theater technician so my work schedule is sometimes inconsistent. Luckily for my clients, that means I am often available during your typical 9-5 work day and I have periods of time where my work schedule is very light and am eager to use that time for pet care services. I cannot accommodate dogs in my home, as I have lots of animals myself, but at-home visits are always available and I am happy to drive your pup somewhere for walks if the neighborhood roads are unsafe/not ideal.

"Booking with Rover and finding the perfect dog sitter was an absolute delight! From start to finish, the experience was seamless and stress-free. The platform's intuitive interface made it easy to browse through a diverse range of experienced sitters, each accompanied by detailed profiles and glowing reviews from other pet owners. After selecting the perfect match for my furry friend, communication was effortless, and I felt reassured knowing that my beloved pet was in capable hands. The updates and photos provided throughout my dog's stay further solidified my confidence in Rover's exceptional service. I highly recommend Rover to any pet owner seeking reliable and loving care for their furry family members."

Vanessa and Jeremy were wonderful with Milton! He loves treats and playtime and they gave him lots of both- even sparking his interest with a different wand toy. I will definitely book with Vanessa in the future.
