“Noelle is fantastic! My dog felt comfortable with her immediately. She also kept us informed of his activities. Even most amazing, our dog slept between her arms.I highly recommend her.”


“This is the second time our dog Charlie has stayed with Tynesha and her family. They take great care of him, give him lots of love, share photos throughout the time we are away. In addition to walks, there is a nice big fenced back yard where he can run. If you have to be away, you really could not ask for more.”


“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my dog! Janice was amazing from start to finish. She stayed with him and kept me updated with lots of pictures, which made me feel calm and relaxed knowing he was in great hands. It was clear she genuinely cared about his well-being, and I came home to a very happy pup. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving sitter!”

“Jessica was a great cat sitter for Stanley. She was able to care for him as per my instructions and really reassured me during the stay.

Weequahic dog parents share their Rover experiences
Rosario was great with our pup Myla! She keeps a watchful eye on the dogs she cares for and tailors to their needs/personalities. She also clearly sets structure & has process around letting dogs run into the yard for the first time, meeting others, etc. Would definitely recommend.

This was Roscoe’s first time away from home and we were a little concerned about how he would adapt to a new environment. Te treated him so well, asked detailed questions about his habits and sent us updates and pictures. We will definitely reach out to Te for future appointments!

We were so grateful for Melissa and her husband Tony. They took Bentley on several walks and kept me updated throughout his day daily. I received several pictures of Bentley during his stay. They also introduced Bentley to a new daily exercise bike riding that he enjoyed. I know Bentley is very active and is always seeking attention and both Melissa and Tony were great keeping him entertained. They are very very flexible and worked me during my flight issues with dropping Bentley off you guys are the best I would book with you guys over and over would highly recommend you to friends and family thanks for keeping my fur baby🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️

This is Hunters 2nd stay and once again, everything was perfect! It’s such a relief knowing my he is in great hands when I’m away. Janice truly goes above and beyond—sending regular updates, photos, and making sure my dog feels right at home. I could tell my dog was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. It means so much to have someone I trust with my fur baby. Highly recommend and looking forward to booking again!

She is an incredible sitter! She was so thoughtful and really paid attention to my dog's needs. I loved receiving daily updates, and it was heartwarming to see how she comforted him during the storm. Her home is lovely, and my dog instantly took a liking to her. Highly recommend!

Luz was FANTASTIC with our senior dog Nugget! He got so much love and outdoor time and attention while we were out of town, and we got so many videos and pictures of him having a great time! By far Nugget’s and my favorite person to watch Nugget while we’re gone!

Sarah was amazing with our senior dog, Tinkerbell! She was gentle, patient, and made Tinkerbell feel right at home. We got updates throughout her stay, which gave us great peace of mind that she was well taken care of. We absolutely use Sarah again the next time we need a sitter.

So thankful I found Desiree! She took such great care of my dog while we were away. She was always so quick to respond and provided me with detailed daily updates. I never had to worry that my dog wasn’t in good hands. He had a great time and was made to feel right at home!

Teresa is great and very responsive and I know I can be last minute with booking with her but she’s always there when we need her lol. Lola loves her and runs to her every time she sees her, we have booked with Teresa 3 times I feel like Lola is loved in the care of Teresa! ❤️
