She took such great care of our sassy old pittie and even help us start a new crate sleeping routine thanks Pig deciding she needed to sprain her ankle right before we left.

She was respectful of our home and went above and beyond her responsibilities by bring in any packages/mail that was delivered and cleaned all the lickmats, kongs and toys. We look forward to booking her again.”


“I could not be more pleased with McKenna watching my Lily! She accommodated a last-minute request, and I am so grateful she was available. My Lily can be a handful at times, but she took to McKenna, relaxed, and was a very good girl. I received photos and updates while away, which put me at ease so I could fully enjoy my time away from my fur baby. McKenna is such a lovely, sweet young woman who clearly loves and knows how to care for pets. I felt great having her in my home watching over my sweet, sometimes not-so-sweet, Lily. I would contact McKenna again without hesitation. She is amazing!”


About: I'm a pet-loving mother of four with three children in college—and enjoying the wonderful pets I have met through this site. I have lived in Scotch Plains for almost 15 years. I watch several dogs regularly on a private basis and am excited to be part of the Rover community. I grew up with a beloved menagerie that included three cats, two beloved dachshunds and a poodle and have enjoyed watching a variety of dogs, including a bulldog, a French bulldog, a Bernese, a labradoodle, and, of course, mixed breeds. I love walking and daily yoga and look forward to helping your pets get the fresh air, activity and affection they need when you are working or otherwise busy. I am a freelance writer with a flexible schedule and have time for walks and visits before or after work and at lunchtime. Having raised a family, I know how important it is to have a pet sitter who is mature and reliable and understands how deeply you love your pets--and am honored to assist you in keeping them happy and healthy. While I would love to help every pet, I am petite, so my ideal sized pets are under 50 pounds. I am a freelance writer with a flexible schedule and my own car. I rise early every day, and I am often available on weekends. I am often available at lunch time to clients who need their dogs walked mid day. I am a mature, reliable and organized mother of four and will treat your beloved and adorable pet like a member of my own family.

“Tina is great with both of the pups especially one of them being a little bit more anxious when we’re not around. Despite a short notice, she managed to accommodate us for a meet and greet beforehand to get to know the pups better!”


“My dogs absolutely love Eva and her attentiveness. She truly wore my two energetic pups out! Communication was great and it was so comforting knowing my babies were in good care in my absence!”


About: I've had pets all my life ranging from fish, hamsters, frogs, cats and dogs. They have all taught me appreciation towards companionship and the joys of being a pet owner. I have around 5 years of experience pet sitting for family and friends. I am also an Eagle Scout who loves the outdoors, so taking your dog(s) for a walk or to the park would be my pleasure. I'm currently working part time in the morning of weekdays. I am free to take care of your pets after 12 pm and anytime during the weekends. At home, I take care of my cat Pepe where i attentively pet him when he shows affection. I feed him 3 times a day and clean his litter box everyday. For when i watch your pet, I will love and care for it as if were my own. I have experience caring for and walking dogs in the past 5 years for family, friends and past roomates.

“I picked Jessica to watch my two dogs while I was away on vacation. It was their first time without family watching them, and typically I would be anxious leaving them. But they loved Jessica, and she was so attentive to their needs! She was great with communication and care. 💜”


About: I grew up in a home filled with animals, which gave me a deep understanding and love for pet care. Over the years, I’ve helped friends and family care for their pets, including dogsitting for my uncle’s dog, who experiences seizures. This experience has made me comfortable handling pets with special needs and providing attentive, compassionate care. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or looking after pets with unique requirements, I treat every animal like my own. I'm currently a server at an Italian restaurant, working part-time, trying to save up money for my college tuition. My availability fluctuates, however I will always find time to care for our furry friends! I have a fenced, nicely sized yard and a quiet, small lab/border collie mixed dog to keep your pups company. I also can provide crates if needed

About: My experience with pets stems from growing around them. It was my responsibility to make sure they were upkept. This is why it feels natural for me to include them in my life. I'm currently working from home and would like some pets in the house while I work for emotional support. I treat animals very well and they naturally love my energy. I live in a safe and secure location that is pet friendly. We also have a dog park and plenty of space to take care of your pet.

About: I’ve taken care of my own pets since I was 6, so I know how to take care of different pets no matter what kinda of pet is. I just love animals! , so I don’t mind taking care of them. :> I’m currently working part-time as a cashier in a supermarket not that far from my house, so I’ll have time to play and take care of your pet. I’m available the weekdays after 8pm or before 2:50pm (all the morning) and the weekends after 6:00. (My schedule change when classes start) I have a younger sister of 11 years friendly and loves pets. I don’t have my own yard but outside my house there’s a nice space for pets where they can run, walk safe. It’s like a nice big green yard basically.

About: From birth, I’ve always cared for pets. I saw my first dog, Max, to the end of his life at the age of 19. Currently owning cats with my family, I have experience with dogs, cats, birds, fish, even snakes. I’ve raised kittens and puppies and though I have little experience training, I’m a fast learner and I love a challege. I work remotely, so I can stay home and enrich your furry family members. I would love to spend time with and take care of your pets. I’m great to sticking to plans and schedules, and I will do everything I can to make sure your furry friend(s) is as comfortable and happy as they can be without their person around.

“Veronica was great with my dog. She provided regular updates throughout the evening and took her for a long walk. She took notes on my dog’s needs and was attentive to them. We will be happy to use her again.”
