About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 18 years old, and over the years, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. I also have professional experience in pet grooming, having worked as both a bather and a dog groomer. This gives me an edge in handling pets gently and confidently, especially during bath time or when dealing with nervous or high-energy pets. Whether it’s daily care, grooming needs, or providing extra attention to puppies or senior pets, I bring patience, skill, and genuine love for animals to every job. I am currently working in a Pet Grooming as a dog groomer during the week. My availability is only on weekends but I am open for a conversation. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I create a calm, clean, and secure environment where pets feel safe and loved. I follow any instructions provided closely—whether it’s feeding routines, medication, or special preferences—and I always take the time to build trust with each animal at their own pace
About: I have experience caring for senior dogs, young and energetic dogs, cats, and reptiles. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Animal Health with a concentration in Small Animals in 2024. My professional animal-care background has taught me to provide patient, compassionate, and attentive care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. I am available Mondays from 4–8 PM and Fridays from 11 AM–4 PM. Fridays offer my most availability, allowing me to provide attentive care and make sure your pets’ needs are fully met. I’m unable to host pets in my home, but I can travel to your home. I provide individualized care based on each pet’s unique needs, personality, routine, enrichment preferences, and exercise requirements.
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I grew up around dogs, cats, rabbits, and other animals on my family’s farm in Ecuador. I’m a caring, patient, and responsible pet sitter who loves making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have experience with feeding, walks, cleaning, playtime, and following each pet’s individual routine and care instructions. I especially love cats, but I’m happy to care for dogs too! I will treat your pets like family and make sure they receive plenty of attention and love while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I just moved to this country. I really love anímales and their well-being. I’m currently looking for a job, and I’d like to start working in a field I’m passionate about, which is animal care. I would care pets in their own home o just walking around the neighborhood, following the owner’s instructions and keeping their normal routine. I would make sure they have fresh food and water, give them attention and playtime, take them for walks if needed, and keep their space clean and safe. I would also pay attention to any changes in their behavior or health and communicate with owner if there are any concerns.

“Just wow - kristina is a TOP TIER cat sitter! One of my kittos was scared and wouldn’t come out - she was relentless in coaxing him out and has now throughly bonded with him. I’m so grateful!

About: I've been caring for pets (dogs and cats) belonging to neighbors, friends, and family since middle school. Whether it's feeding, walking, playing, or just hanging out with them, it's always felt natural. I've also had dogs in my own home since I was 4, so they've truly been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I love them like family! I have the most experience with medium/large-sized dogs and have worked with pups as young as around a year old all the way up to seniors. For cats, I've cared for those 2 and older. Here is my current weekly schedule (this shows times I have other obligations): Monday: 2:00-5:30 (class + commute), virtual class in evening Tuesday: 11:00am-7pm (internship + commute) Wednesday: 1:00pm-4pm (class + commute) Thursdays: 8:00am-1pm (internship + commute), virtual work + class in evening Friday: work virtually Sat & Sun: available Every pet and home is different, so I always follow the owner's instructions and routines. Whether it's feeding schedules, walking habits, or just how their pet likes to be comforted, I make sure to communicate with clients beforehand so their pet feels safe and at ease in their own space.
About: I have owned several pets in my life and have experience as a pet sitter for both dogs and cats. I am a medical student in my fourth year and at the moment, I am flexible and can be available for any last minute needs. I am diligent, on time and will follow instructions to the letter!

About: I have been a pet owner my entire life and a pet sitter for about 15 years! I have taken care of many different dog breeds including elderly dogs, special needs, and those with high anxiety. I am experienced with training such as commands, bathroom problems, tricks, and leash training. I am a very active person so I have no problem going for long walks or runs with your fur friend and playing until they’re tired. In the past, I’ve taken dogs on long hikes, lake trips, and dog parks (doggy baths included of course). Additionally, I currently have two very friendly cats! That being said I am open to house visits for cats too as I am knowledgeable on how to care for them! Please make sure to read below: - Your safety is important to me! Please let me know in advance if you would prefer to meet with masks on and/or present my COVID vaccination card! - If your pet is aggressive or a runner, please let me know in advance so I am well prepared. - If you are unable to pay the rates on my profile, please message me so we can work something out :) I have a very laid back work schedule and little to no meetings throughout the day. My schedule will be worked around your pet to make sure they are having fun and getting attention! I have a pet safe home and my own pets will be kept separately from yours if they are to come here (unless they get along!). I can also easily crate your pet if that is what you prefer and continue any training that you are actively working on. At your home, I will make sure that all electronics that might be unsafe are off and all doors are locked. I am familiar with surveillance features installed with homes as well!
“We truly appreciated the thoughtful nature of Mary Ann and the care with which she approached our scaredy cats. She arrived on time, took care of the cats and kept us updated along the way. She took the initiative to spent some quiet time with them allowing the cats to trust her and get pets while we were away. She has a very calming personality, she is respectful of cats and understands that pet parents can be anxious leaving their babies home alone. She sent us multiple pictures at each visits and appropriately provided updates. This allowed us to be at ease knowing our cats were well cared for by Mary Ann. I highly appreciate Mary Ann and would love to work with her in the future.”
“Melanie came by for a visit just to get to know my kitty, Jinjin before I go away for a week. Melanie was great and was able to get Jinjin out of hiding which was awesome and very reassuring. I highly recommend her!”
About: I am comfortable with animals of all ages and size and love spending time with them. I would welcome any opportunity to help out with caring for the fur babies of fellow pet parents. Currently, I work a 9 to 5 with 3 remote days so pet care can fit easily before, after, or during work when I am at home. In September, I will be working 3 times a week as a Nurse Aide and am able to pick my own schedule. I will have free time to walk or pet sit throughout the rest of the week and am able to adjust my schedule to meet the needs of the family. I am conscious of the importance of understanding the nature of the animals we care for and make an active effort to keep my space as cat friendly as possible for my pets. I make sure all dogs and cats I interact with feel calm and safe in my presence so they can trust me.
About: I’ve recently moved to NJ about two years ago. Prior to moving here, I have walked many many dogs including Great Danes, Samoyed, German Shepherds, Yorkies, etc. On occasion I would cat sit my friend’s cats whenever they go on vacation. I love ALL kinds of animals, but do the best when they’re friendly to humans. Im high energy and like to be out going, so I do prefer dogs with lots of energy to play, walk, or run with! I’m a college student working part time over the summer. Despite that, my job is very flexible and I can move things around to fit whatever works best for you. My Saturday & Sunday are busy from 4pm-11pm and my Mondays and Thursday are busy from 11am-10pm, but I can move things around if needed. I only ask that I would get a week in advance notice! I absolutely love playing with animals. I’m high energy myself and seeing any animals happy makes my heart melt. I would take probably hundreds of photos of the fur balls! I work best with animals that are already tamed or don’t bite. I’m also very good with following any type of instructions and would ask questions to sort out any concerns prior to pet sitting.
“Kat and Kale did an amazing job watching our cat while our family was away on vacation. They were punctual and kept to our cat’s feeding schedule and made sure to clean out the litter box everyday like asked. They are trustworthy and reliable and we will be using their services again in the future.”
About: During my time there, I handled various dog breeds and played/walked dogs of all ages, including senior dogs and puppies. I have worked with animals that have disabilities. I also have walked and played with my family and friend’s dogs when they needed a dog sitter. Prior to dog walking my family friends dogs, I was a Pet Care Specialist for several months at Morris Animal Inn. I’m currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your animal and/or animals! I am available on week days, and/or weekends if needed. I will make sure your animals safety is my top priority, and can give them treats if needed. From working at Morris Animal Inn, I have experience and knowledge of working with animals.

Dan was prompt, communicative, and took great care of our fur kids. Both pets seemed very happy with each visit, we absolutely loved the photo check ins, and we were able to enjoy our vacation as a family knowing they were in good hands. I highly recommend him for your pet care needs.
Had a great experience with Riley! Riley took wonderful care of Nyah and Bohdi over the weekend and kept me updated the whole time. I felt completely comfortable knowing my dogs were in good hands. Riley is very professional and gave Nyah and Bohdi lots of walks and played with them a lot. Nyah and Bohdi were so happy and well cared for. We will definitely be booking Riley again and we highly recommend him!
Mark took care of Chumpy for over a week while we were away, and he did an amazing job! He was incredibly patient and caring with Chumpy and went above and beyond, even cleaning up after his not-so-little messes 🫣. Knowing Chumpy was in such good hands gave us so much peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy our time away without worrying. Thank you so much, Mark, for taking such great care of our old man! We truly appreciate your patience, kindness, and the care you showed Chumpy. We would absolutely recommend Mark to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring to look after their pet!
This is my second booking with Nicole. I was out of town for 5 days and I felt completely relaxed and without a worry because Nicole was watching my pets. I highly recommend hiring Nicole - she is kind, patient, caring, professional, and just an overall great person!

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Bloomfield is $24 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $32 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 26,266 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Bloomfield. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Bloomfield 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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
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.
