“Monica and Kelvin were great to work with. They sent photos and updates of my dogs for the few days they had them. When I picked my boys up they seemed well taken care of, clean and happy.”
“Maureen and her family were amazing! Mocha was well taken care of, we got daily updates and pictures, and she was so responsive to anything we'd needed! When I arrived to pick Mocha up, he jumped on me to say hi, and then immediately sprinted to the back of the house (not the front door) cause he'd had such a good time there!”
“We had such a great experience Ankita! She truly made my dog feel right at home from the moment he arrived. It was clear he was comfortable, happy, and well cared for the entire time. I especially loved that he was never alone. She and her family were always around, giving him plenty of attention and making him feel like part of the household. He also had a blast spending time with their dog, Panther. They got along great, and it made the whole experience even more fun like a vacation for my dog. I could tell from the updates and how he was when I picked him up that he had an amazing time. I’d absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and attentive sitter!”
About: We genuinely love spending time with dogs and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. As a husband-and-wife team, you’ll have two dedicated animal lovers caring for your pet, giving you added peace of mind and flexibility. We’ve been dog owners for over 15 years and have raised two dogs from puppies through their senior years. That experience has taught us patience, consistency, and how to care for dogs at every stage of life—from energetic puppies who need structure and play to senior dogs who require a slower pace, extra attention, and gentle care. We know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so we’ll always treat your dog like one of our own. Whether we’re stopping by for a visit or taking your dog on a walk, we’ll follow your instructions carefully, provide plenty of love and attention, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know your pet is happy and well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine because we both work from home, giving us the flexibility to schedule walks and drop-in visits throughout the day. With our two children in elementary school, we’re already active in the community and have a routine that allows us to provide dependable care before work, during lunch breaks, after school, evenings, and on many weekends. As a husband-and-wife team, one of us is often available, allowing us to be flexible and reliable for your pet’s needs. Whether your dog needs a midday potty break, a walk to burn off energy, or a little extra companionship while you’re away, we’re happy to help and will always make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are our top priorities. During every drop-in visit or walk, we’ll follow your care instructions closely—from feeding schedules and medications (if needed) to favorite walking routes and playtime preferences. We know that keeping pets on their normal routine helps them feel comfortable while you’re away. We’ll treat your home with the same respect we’d expect for our own by ensuring doors and gates are securely locked, keeping your home tidy, and making sure your pet is safe before we leave. We’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. We understand that every dog is unique, so we’ll take the time to get to know their personality, energy level, and comfort level to provide patient, loving, and dependable care every visit.
“Jessica is amazing. My little one loves her. She takes care of Lalibu with so much love and care. I love all the pictures and updates she sends me to make me feel good while I’m away from my little one. Thank you very much.”
“My dog had a wonderful time at Tammy’s house. Tammy and her husband created such a warm and welcoming atmosphere for everyone, they were so friendly and kind and Harley felt right at home. I would highly recommend Tammy! 5 stars!”
“We can't say enough about Jesus. We needed a booking at the last minute, and Jesus happened to be nearby AND available. That was already too good to be true, but our dog is very anxious around strangers, and it takes her some time to get used to people. We had an immediate meet and greet, dropped her off the next day, and prayed. While we were on the plane, Jesus sent us a picture of Baily on her leash in the yard with her tail wagging and what appeared to be a smile. Jesus is the new dog whisperer! LOL”
“Eleanor is awesome!!! I reached out to her for an emergency to keep my 5month old GSD pupp for a day. She was kind enough to keep him and took every good care of my pupp.. I highly recommend her. My pupp loved her place and secured backyard is a blessing in disguise”
“I have had Kariss and Daniel watch Remi several times now, and they are amazing! They send lots of pictures, and it is great having people I trust to watch Remi when I am traveling.”
“Leo had a wonderful staycation with Hope during the Christmas weekend. Hope took excellent care of Leo and made sure she followed all our instructions about his care. Hope was very responsive about all our questions and sent us lot of pictures of Leo. We will definitely want to leave Leo with Hope for our next trip as well.”
“Sunny is the best caregiver. Attends to all details and takes notes for any quirks and preferences. I feel as close to my dog as when I am at home because she constantly gives updates with details and pictures/videos.”
“Jocelyn is an amazing dog sitter. She was communicative, professional and kind. She took care of my dogs for a period of 10 days and I had complete peace of mind because she sent me so many photos and videos of my pups having a great time in her home. She is a gem.”
“Juan and his family took great care of our dog while we were out of town for a week. He was quick to respond to our messages and provided us with updates as to how she was doing. We would gladly use his services again in the future.”

“Chialing watched our dog while we were away for a few days. She sent us photos of several times a day and our dog looked very comfortable and happy while away. She did a fantastic job!”
“Karla was incredible!!! This was our first time leaving our puppy with a dog sitter so we were super nervous but Karla was so friendly and reassured us constantly. She sent us tons of photos and kept us up to date on how he was doing. Our puppy is a little shy but he took to Karla super fast when they first met! He had tons of play time and made so many friends! He was so happy running around in the yard and we could tell he was having a wonderful time! Thank you so much Karla for making this such a great and positive experience for us :) we will be booking with you when we go traveling again for sure :) many many thanks !!!”
“Evelyn and her husband took care of beanie really well! I was a little nervous since I haven’t used rover a lot(new dog parent) and upon meeting them I immediately felt comfortable that beanie was in good hands. Also, beanie immediately got along with their other good natured dogs. They provided a lot of updates with pictures and videos throughout the visit. I highly recommend them and would love to use them for any future events!!!”

Cathy was wonderful! She asked to meet Baz before our boarding time to make sure he was good with her place. She asked a lot of questions to get to know everything about him. She sent daily photos and messages so I knew he was okay. Baz seemed like he had fun. Will be using Cathy again for sure
Mike was absolutely wonderful\! He picked up Judge right on time and delivered him safely and on schedule\. He was incredibly caring and attentive, taking Judge for walks and making sure he was comfortable and well cared for throughout the entire trip\. Judge is a big boy—about five times the size of most dogs—and he slobbers quite a bit\! Despite that, Mike made him feel completely comfortable, safe, and loved\. I truly appreciate the exceptional care Mike gave Judge\. I highly recommend him to any dog owner looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable\. Thank you, Mike\!
We've used Ann's in-home dog sitting several times now for our Mini Goldendoodle, Penny, and every experience has been great. Ann is incredibly responsive — she always answers questions quickly and puts us at ease when we're away. She sends regular updates and photos while Penny's in her care, so we never have to wonder how things are going. Most importantly, she's completely reliable; we know we can count on her every time we book. Highly recommend Ann to anyone looking for a trustworthy, communicative dog sitter!
Brittany and her family were absolutely wonderful with Cooper. From the updates she shared to the care and attention they gave him, we could tell he was genuinely loved and treated like part of their family. Honestly, I think Cooper was a little sad to leave them! It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was being cared for and loved just as he would be at home with us. Brittany truly became an extension of our family, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We’re so grateful and would absolutely trust her with Cooper again. Thank you, Brittany and family!
I booked Hope to board Walter at her home overnight when I had a wedding to attend! We did a meet and greet before the overnight visit and Hope showed me where Walter would sleep and spend the day! It was reassuring to know she had a gate to keep Walter and his puppy antics contained. During the actual stay she sent many cute pictures of Walter enjoying his stay. She also cleaned his eyes for me and gave me some grooming tips for him! He came home looking even better than when I dropped him off!! I would definitely book with her again! :)
Camila is an amazing dog sitter. She has a friendly personality and her husband is just as awesome. They cared and took care of my American bully of 5 years which he warmed up to them wonderfully. Camila always sent picture updates of my dog, which was great to have a good price of mind. I would definitely recommend her services again!
Meredith did a great job taking care of my senior dog. She has senior dogs herself so she was very understanding. She also gave me good feedback. She communicates very well and responds quickly. She has a nice fenced in yard. My dog got along well with Meredith and her dogs. I think she had such a good time that she didn't want to come home! Thanks Meredith!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NJ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
