“We needed a last minute dog walker for our 1 year old Husky. Caitlyn was GREAT! I loved seeing all the pictures and updates. She even cleaned up a little of a mess that Nuna made. Definately will be using her again!!”
“Monica has been so sweet, and willing to come on last minute visit requests. She goes above and beyond anyone I’ve met, even voluntarily cleaning up puppy messes or accidents he might have gotten in to after breaking out of crates. She always keep me updated and sends the cutest photos. So thankful for her, and love to continue my pups play time with her.”
“Britney communicated with us during each visit. She took several photos of all of our dogs and asked questions when she didn’t know the answer. Our dogs absolutely loved her. We are so thankful for her services.”
About: Hi! I've been fostering dogs from a local shelter for a little over 2 years. In that time, I've helped about 20 dogs find their forever families. There's been dogs in our home ranging in age from 9 months to 9 years, all with a different story. Abused, neglected, owner surrender, stray, court case holds, seniors, puppies, overweight, super skinny and anything else you can think of! I treated them all with empathy and showered them affection to earn their trust and love. Many of my former fosters come for visits while their owners are on vacation. Any pup that comes through my doors will be cared for and treated with respect, just like my fosters! I work at a school, so I'm currently on summer break. When school is in session, I work Monday to Friday 9-1, and I'm off evenings, weekends and holidays. I also work in the town in which I reside, so my commute is less than 5 minutes, meaning I'm close by! I have a fully fenced in yard, crates and dog beds in various sizes, bowls, blankets and mounds of toys. I'm also comfortable administering medication if needed.
“Haleigh was so awesome in Cari g for ALL 3 of my babies! She is a god send. I have never used this app before and was skeptical at first but she eased all of my worries and concerns. She checked in with me multiple times and sent me videos and pics of my babies and took care of them as if they were her own. Will definitely be a returning customer and recommend her without any hesitation! Thanks again Haleigh🫶🏻🥰”
About: I’m a veterinary student at Rowan and looking for a side gig. I’ve worked with paraplegic and elderly dogs, trained puppies, and volunteered at SPCA. I would be looking to work mainly on the weekends. If needed, I can occasionally work early evening (5 pm to 8 pm) on weekdays. I prioritize creating a safe environment by paying attention to each pet’s body language and behavior. Through the SPCA, I learned about pet psychology and how to recognize signs of fear or stress, as well as how to use appropriate handling techniques to build trust.
“Brittany was cheerful and kind and did a wonderful job taking care of my two cats. It was my first time using her, and I felt comfortable that my cats were in good hands. I’ve already booked her for my next vacation!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was a kid, and I have raised two dogs myself along with my wife. I’ve also watched plenty of friends pets while they are out of town I work remote, so I often have free gaps throughout the day when I can take my dogs on walks or stop by for a visit. I have two incredibly friendly golden retrievers, but there is also plenty of space in my house along with a yard in case pets need space.
“Jo is an amazing animal lover. Such a gift for pet owners that need support. She was very communicative and sent me pics which really cheered me up while I was in the hospital. I would highly recommend Jo for any if your pet support needs. I could not be happier with the care my 4 dogs received. Until the next time Jo, thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
About: I have experience with larger dogs, small dogs, and cats as well. I help cater to any special needs or requests you may have such as administering medicine, special diets, and keeping you updated on their well being. Good for quick walks or staying with your pet overnight. I worked in everyday in Brooklyn, NY as a dog walker/pet sitter from 2019 to 2023. I have since then have been traveling around as a pet sitter for the last two years in-between taking care of some important family business. I have grown up raising German Shepherds all of my life and love to know that I am helping someone's day out by being able to care for their pet while they are not able to. I am currently available for any time and can even travel to you if needed for extended overnight stays. Your pet's needs come first for me. I will care for your pet at your home and follow the routine they are used to. Whatever makes them most comfortable is how I will take good care of them.
About: What sets me apart from other dog caregivers is my genuine love for dogs and the experience I’ve gained from being a dog owner for many years. I currently own a beautiful pit bull that is 11 years old ,her name is Blue. Before my dog Blue, , I owned a miniature pinscher for 14 years who passed away from old age and being ill.I understand that every dog has its own personality, needs, and routines. I enjoy spending time with dogs, making them feel safe, loved, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. Especially knowing how important it is to me, when I am away, to know that my dog is cared for fed, and feels safe. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or simply companionship, I treat every dog with the same care, patience, and affection that I would give my own. I do currently work full-time. Although I work full-time, I am done work at 2:30, and off in the summer. My husband has recently passed away. I have a lot more time on my hands to give your pet a lot of love. I am done work early enough that I can get to an owner‘s house for a dinner feeding for your pet, letting your pet out if you have a fenced yard , if not a walk. Playtime for your pet companionship whatever the case may be my weekends are free and my summer . It is then that I could provide overnight stays. Having a dog myself, I would not provide any services at my home, however, I would gladly come to your house, carefully come in, call your dog’s name and provide whatever services you would like. Those services would include a 15 minute visit or a 30 min visit In a 15 minute visit: *Let dog out/ short walk * Fresh water/ feeding *Lots of attention/ affection 20.00 30 min drop in * Walk/yard time *Feeding / water refresh * playtime/ companionship *Poop cleanup * photo text update- 30.00
“Deanna was so lovely! She accommodated us as with a last minute request and responded quickly by asking lots of questions about our dogs, their habits, and needs. She followed our instructions to the letter and although it was a quick drop in, she still gave us a full report and pictures. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
About: I’ve had dogs and watched dogs since I moved to this area in 2006. I love to take them for walks and give lots of scratches. Dogs are just the best. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I also don’t start until 8:30 or 9 so early mornings are good. I am up late also so any time at night is fine. My home has a fenced in yard. For other homes I would take the dogs for a walk, refresh water, give a treat and make sure they’re all settled before heading out

“Eileen is wonderful. She took great care of my two kitties, doing drop-in visits twice a day. Both kitties warmed to her immediately, even my one that is typically a bit shy. She updated me with lots of photos at each visit, which I loved! She also took care of a few little chores, like bringing in the mail and trash cans - which I didn’t expect! I am glad to have found Eileen, and I will be a repeat customer!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Woodbury Heights
Rover exceeded all expectations. I was nervous about using an agency and an unfamiliar sitter.The meet and greet with Monica P. went well from the beginning. Monica arrived on time for the scheduled visits. She followed all directions and most importantly took excellent care of my dog, Lucy. Lucy is a senior dog that we rescued from a past of neglect and abuse. She is not welcoming to strangers. However, Monica was able to gain her trust. She ate meals and there were no "accidents or damage" in the house. The frequent photos and reports reassured me all was well at home.
We had such a wonderful experience with Deanna! This was our first time using her, and from the moment we met, I felt 100% comfortable leaving our dogs in her care. You can immediately tell how much she genuinely loves dogs and how caring she is with them. It was so nice to be able to go away and truly relax, knowing our dogs were in such good hands. We are so thankful to have finally found someone we can trust and will absolutely be using Deanna again!
Tori is all you would hope to have in a pet sitter. She clearly loves animals and after several visits to my home at this point- I always come back to relaxed and obviously well taken care of kitties and doggies. She responds quickly and she has even dealt with some unexpected situations. For example- my cat broke a glass cake stand and she cleaned it up without complaint and with great care so that the animals would not get cut. I'm very thankful for her and so are my pets.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Woodbury Heights 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
