About: Will look after your furry friends while you’re at work or away on vaca. Over 10 years experience as a dog groomer. Diligent, professional, honest, and reliable. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you need a trusted sitter! My schedule is flexible and I will work to meet you and your pets’ needs. I’m available for daily walks, drop-in visits, or extended stays… Safety is priority. I have extensive knowledge of animal behavior, health, and needs. Playtime, potty breaks, feeding, and just making sure your pet is happy and comfortable are all part of my role as a sitter.
“Barbara cared for my two fur babies with multiple visits in a day including backyard playtime and a walk. I was very pleased with the her attention to detail on specific instructions and the attention she showed my Molly and Rico. I recommend her for sure.”
“Fijian was everything I could hope for in a cat sitter and MORE! She took excellent care of my babies and sent extremely detailed updates after every visit. She is an adept caretaker and I felt very comfortable leaving my cats in her very capable hands. I’ve already booked her for another weekend!”
About: For years, I’ve been trusted by friends and family to care for dogs of all sizes and personalities, whether it’s energetic puppies, strong large breeds, or mellow older dogs. I also have experience providing medicine for both dogs and cats, ensuring they get the right care when they need it most. I know how important it is to keep pets active and engaged, so I make sure every dog gets plenty of walks, playtime, and attention tailored to their needs. Being an active caregiver, I enjoy staying on the move and making sure each furry friend feels loved, safe, and happy while in my care. I currently work four days a week and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide care and walks Monday, Wednesday through Sunday. This gives me ample time for multiple walks per day, accommodating different feeding routines, and plenty of playtime. Whether it’s sticking to a schedule or adding in extra activity, I make sure each pet gets the care and attention they need. Depending on your dog’s training and routine, I can follow your directions for crate use, provide free roam in my apartment, or stick to the setup you prefer. Since I don’t have a yard, I make sure dogs are leash trained and enjoy regular walks in my neighborhood. Walks can range anywhere from 1 to 3 miles, depending on your dog’s needs and your request. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and well-cared for in an environment that matches their routine. In your home, I would follow careful instructions with walking, feeding, and playing.
About: I’ve cared for puppies and adult dogs for family friends and raised a high-energy Malinois mix myself. I’m comfortable with active dogs, structured walks, and sticking to routines that help dogs feel calm and secure I’m an MBA graduate student at Montclair State with night classes a couple evenings per week. My daytime schedule is flexible, so I’m able to plan walks, drop-ins, and pet care around each pet’s routine I always prioritize a calm, safe, and familiar environment for pets. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and make sure pets feel comfortable and secure in their own space. I’m attentive during walks and drop-ins, and I treat every home with respect
About: My fiancé, Shandy, and I are extremely playful and caring people. We have had pets since a young age and know how to manage pets with social anxiety, rescued animals, animals with need of medication, etc. During our 2018 summer, my fiancé was interning at a Veterinarian clinic and her job was to feed, play, and inject/give animals their medication. If you need a pet sitter than let us know and if we’re available we will be able to give him/her the attention they need. My fiancé and I both work. Shandy works part-time so she will mostly be available but I work full-time 3-4 days a week so that’s why we work on this together. We will respect what is okay or not okay depending on each owner’s pets. For example, we can take them to dog parks if they get along with other dogs or if they don’t like being walked and only wee wee pad trained we will pick up after them.
“Ellen was fantastic with our 3 cats. We were nervous to leave them, but they were in the best hands. She checked in on time everyday and sent pictures with an update. We have one extremely shy cat and Ellen made sure to seek him out each day. We would highly recommend her to anyone and will definitely rebook with her in the future!”
About: I have grown up taking care of cats and dogs my whole life. I love animals so much. I currently only have one dog who i take care of but i also walk my neighbors dogs who cant. Everyday i wake up and immediately take my dog out and prepare her breakfast. After we have some play time and i take her on at least 3 walks throughout the day! I have a fenced in yard so i will be able to give them time to play in the backyard and also take them on multiple walks throughout the day! I also have a dog that loves to play!
About: If you have last minute trips, or just want to go on a date night, I’m available for your pet needs. Just send me a quick note. I will work with you and your schedule. I’m currently working a full-time job, however, I can work with your schedule, I’m reliable and caring for your pets as if they were mine. I would cater to the clients' needs for their pets. I live in an apartment but have access to several dog parks in my complex.
“Tessa did an awesome job of keeping us informed while we were away during our trip and sending us lots if photos. Our pets seemed happy and loved on. House was in order when we returned and she went above and beyond doing somethings we didn't expect her to take care of such as taking out trash and scooping litter since it was a short trip.”
“Tina is very responsive, caring, and easy to communicate with. She made sure all the specific requests I had were taken care of perfectly. When I came home, my cats were calm and well attended to. I can finally travel without worrying about them!”
“Thank you so much, Olga, for taking amazing care of my cats. Olga stepped in to help during a last minute booking and was incredibly accommodating. She worked with my schedule and allowed me to submit additional bookings as needed.”
“Taylor was great with our cats and left detailed notes that helped put us at ease while we were gone. It was clear they took a liking to her and she took the time to play with them. I would not hesitate to book her again!”
“Michael was an amazing cat sitter to our 3 indoor boys and took care of our 1 feral lady outside! He was there everyday we were gone at the boys “dinner time” without fail! I received adorable photos of the belly rubs and even my shy guy came out for treats! That’s a testament to the animal person Michael is! When we returned home from our vacation the house was exactly how we left it and the boys had plenty of food and water. Their boxes were clean and the area was tidy. We will absolutely be using Michael’s services again!”
About: I had a dog growing up and also currently own a dog for the past 4 years and love taking care of all different dogs. I currently work from home so I am available throughout the day to care for the dog for bathroom breaks as well as any play time. I have a fenced backyard for dogs to play in as well as a dog of my own to accompany your dog too, as well as comfortable spots around the house for them to rest and play.
“Stephanie and Ashley were great! Very communicative and sent great pictures. Luna also clearly liked them a lot. Definitely plan on working with them again the next time we go out of town.”
“Nicolas (Cole) was great to communicate with. He gave detailed feedback on how our dogs were doing while we were home. He took the initiative to find our cat and made sure he got attention too ! Coke’s puts his heart in his work with the pets. We will gladly request to have him return.”
About: I've had small to medium sized dogs but that does not limit me to any other sizes. I enjoy having dogs as company and playing with them till we’re both tired. I work from home and will go to the office at least once a month if needed. My work schedule is 9AM-5PM but I would be able to take your dog outside throughout the day. I live in a friendly and quiet neighborhood and parks are also available near me. I have the flexibility to drive any distance between 5-15 miles away from my home. Please require any special instructions that you would like followed for your dog and any health concerns they may have. Can't wait you meet you and your furry friend! Thank you for your consideration.

Thank you so much for taking such good care of my puppy during the drop-in visit! I really appreciated the updates and photos, and it gave me peace of mind knowing my puppy was in good hands. My puppy seemed happy, comfortable, and well cared for when I got back. I would definitely recommend you and look forward to booking with you again!”
Hannah is a gem. She's very easy to communicate and schedule with. She clearly loves animals and takes such for care of Pongo. She doesn't just go through the motions but puts effort and energy into spending quality time with our dog. Would recommend to anyone.
Skylar is really great sitter and our puppy was super happy with her around. Setup a meet and greet and got acquainted, she went through feeding instructions, took Maximus for a walk and made everything very easy and comfortable. Recommend her services and will repeat her again for Maximus.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Woodbridge stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Woodbridge choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Woodbridge with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
