“Jennifer is absolutely incredible. Larry my puppy is 3 months so I was nervous to leave him with anyone, let alone a stranger. She quickly put my mind at ease when I watched her interact with Larry. And to be honest the best part of this review is, Larry is wildly excited to see Jennifer each morning she watches him. Jennifer is incredibly accommodating as well. My schedule changed 4x over a 2 week stretch and Jennifer made a stressful situation very comforting. I actively using her services and will continue to.”
“Steven and Tracy are ah-mazing with Jaxson. When I drop him off in the mornings for doggy daycare he’s usually tired but as soon as he sees them waiting in the driveway his tail starts wagging and he’s immediately excited, and I love that. I work a lot and having a safe, fun place for him to socialize with other dogs (annd they have 6 of their own) and be loved on is exactly what I was looking for. I always look forward to the pictures and videos they send throughout the day, and they are great with communication. When I pick him up after work we’re both tired lol, and that’s all a busy dog mom could hope for. I appreciate the service immensely and I’m very happy I picked the right people for Jaxson on my first try with the Rover App.”
“Thanks for taking great care of my Jersey boy! I appreciate you taking him out for a walk on a rainy day. He loved the attention and hopefully made new friend. Will book again soon!”
“Misty was amazing with my baby! From the time we started chatting, to meeting at her home, to the photos sent throughout. My dog lets me know how she feels about people, instantly, and she was surely comfortable with Misty. I’d recommend her to anyone and surely would send Nova to her again in a heartbeat!”
About: I love pet especially dogs I actually want a teacup chihuahua but money is kind of tight for me right now so why not get to love and take care of others pets while I work on getting my own and maybe have play dates for my future pets too I would love to love your pets thank you in advance for giving me a chance to do so
“Klainer took great care of our two fur babies while we went to some events in NYC for the day. This was our first time having both dogs watched together, as our youngest is only 6 months old. I never had to ask for updates because Klainer provided continuous ones, which really put our minds at ease during the day. They came back to us loved and tired, making our night super easy. If you’re from out of town like we were, I highly recommend trusting her with your fur baby! Very clean apartment, too.”
About: As a paw parent myself, I treat yours as if they are my own. I have two cockapoos that are well socialized, and loving. I have been a Rover parent, also have hired personal pet-sitters so know what I expect and what you should expect. I treat your pet as if they were my own. It takes patience and kindness - simple. I walk pets 3 times a day, 5am, 3pm, 9pm. They are fed either 1/2 times a day at your preference with snacks and treats in between. If you allow plain treats such as fruits, carrot sticks, Cheerios, etc. I am in the healthcare field, Pet CPR/First Aid certified and thankfully have not experience any medical emergencies. I live in an apartment surrounded by two parks, and within 10 mins of dog parks (at your preference). They are free to roam my apartment and allowed on furniture and my bed (at your preference).
About: I was a soldier in my country, I took my dog training course and worked with many breeds. I really like sharing my time with pets and I will take care of them as if they were my own. I work part-time and I want to share my free time with pets and take care of them as if they were my own and pamper them so that they feel good with me until they return home. I have an empty backyard which I could use for the care and much more of your pets with the greatest security and more confidence
About: I don't just care for pets I connect with them I take the time to learn the routines quirks and comfort zones so they feel safe happy and understood whether it's calming and anxious pup earning the trust of a shy cat or giving Extra Care to senior pets I tailor every visit to there unique needs you'll get thoughtful updates Real Time photos and total Peace of Mind knowing your pet is in the hands of someone who treats him like family not a job compassion consistency and Trust are the heart of my care Caring for Animals isn't something I squeeze in it's part of my everyday life I structure my day around my pet clients needs whether that means early morning walks midday check-ins or evening cuddles because I work flexible hours I'm able to give each pet my full attention without rushing every feeding play session and potty break is scheduled with character to ensure consistency and comfort When pets stay with me they become part of the family I maintain a calm cozy and pet friendly environment where routines are followed closely to reduce stress after plenty of play times outdoor walks quiet spaces for rest and lots of love and attention.
About: Since a child, home has always been made complete with pets, and that is where a genuine love for animals began within me. I’ve been around different breads and ages, from shitzu to pit bull and puppies to seniors, which gave me a broader understanding in the proper care (feeding structure, walking/exercise, pet proofing environments, etc.) and comfort required for each individual pet. The years of experience that I’ve had with these incredible fur babies has led me to ultimately pursuing my passion in helping others care for theirs! I am currently working from home, leaving me with an overall open and flexible schedule. Pet daycare is available Monday-Friday until 6pm (weekends can be further discussed). Also, due to involvement with my home church, I do partake in group/classes from 7pm-10pm, Monday-Wednesday, for anyone interested in pet boarding availability. My home is a pet-proofed, cozy house with a spacious, fenced-in backyard, located near a park only a few minutes away walking distance. There aren’t any children nor any pets at home, creating plenty of space for your pet to safely and freely enjoy! While caring for your pets, I always prioritize following their set schedules as well, in regard to their feeding, exercise, potty, rest, and medication (if necessary). I want every owner to feel peace while they are away, so I make sure to provide consistent communication and photos/videos updates throughout the stay!
“Jamin was great and accommodating at the last minute. He was definitely attentive to Yanni's needs and was helpful in getting him acclimated to a new environment. Hands down would book again”
“Jestine was just a sweetheart! She took amazing care of my baby :) She was also very flexible with drop off and pick up times which helped a lot! (traffic…) I’d trust she will take care of your baby just like she took care of mine 💖”

Maisha T.Star Sitter
“I’ve used Mai for almost 2 years. Working in corrections brought us together but she has become family and my dog’s fur-aunty. My job is very demanding but she makes it easy to accommodate my last minute schedule/conferences/trainings, and follows my instructions/schedule to a T. When I travel it is a bonus she lives close to EWR. She sends updates with pictures 2x-day. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to leave my babies with. A few of my co-workers have been recommended to her and use her as well.”

Excellent ! I run a mobile grooming buisness and I usually bring my pup with me. However, this day was cat day so I had to look for someone to host my 5 year old pitbull at momemts notice. I'm so happy Misty was able to host Ace. He did well with the others pups she was hosting. She sent me photos and keep me updated on how he was doing. 10 out of 10 I would recommend! I know pup can be a handful since he's a nervous pup.
Es mi primera vez dejando Aby con una cuidadora. Quise tratar primero una visita dejándola por un día para que Aby y Koryn se conocieran y después hacer una reservación más extensa. Nos gustó mucho la forma de Koryn, durante el día le envíe algunos mensajes y sus respuestas fueron inmediatas. Aby se quedó con ella como si la conociera de toda la vida. Otra de las cosas que me gustó es que habla español. En unos días mi familia y yo nos vamos de vacaciones y nos iremos confiados de que Aby estará en buenas manos.
