“Hailey came to our rescue with only one week notice during the holiday season! She texted photos and details of her visits every day and followed my many notes. Our cats were shy with her at first, but the Christmas tissue paper we left for them to play with was well clawed up, so they ended up having a great time! Thank you Hailey! ”
About: I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and plenty of love for you pets. I've cared for dogs and cats of all sizes and friends and family often trust me with their pets when they're away. I work Monday-Friday full time, but I have flexibility to work from home so my schedule is flexible. I'm happy to arrange my schedule as needed. I am easily adaptable to different environments so I will stick to ground rules set by the client. Strong communicator so will make sure everything goes smoothly.
“Katherine watched our cat when we went away for the first time since getting him. She did such an incredible job of keeping us updated and letting us know how our cat was doing, giving us so much piece of mind knowing he was being taken care of so well. Our cat very clearly had a great time and liked Katherine very much. Katherine was also so understanding when our plans changed and was incredible flexible. We will 100% be asking her to watch our cat in the future when we go away. She did an amazing job.”
“Celeste was great! She was able to check in on my puppy while I was at work. She asked all the right questions to make sure she knew how to care for him best and absolutely followed through! I know he was in good hands with her.”
“I found that Chloe communicates well, follows instructions, has a good demeanor with my dog and seems sincerely interested in providing him with the best possible care.”
“She is absolutely the best! She was supposed to drop in for 30 minutes, but she spent several hours and even took my dog to the dog park because she knew I’m overwhelmed with the bar exam and moving🥹🥹🥹 I can’t thank her enough and highly recommend her.”
“Sam did a great job with my two dogs. Made the effort to come meet them while I was home. Was very reliable and kept me informed of how they did during his visits. Would definitely recommend Sam!”
About: I live with my girlfriend who boards animals and I love how natural she is at this! It’s lead me to want to start caring for animals too! I'm a genuine animal lover with a real passion for dogs and cats. I understand what it means to care for my furry friends like family, and I treat every animal that I care for with grace and kindness. Your furry baby will get daily walks, plenty of attention, and a safe, comfortable space to be themselves. Honestly, watching a dog's face light up when their owner returns? That's what it's all about for me. I am a freelance writer and have plenty of free time on my hand to care for up animals. Meaning I’m available Monday to Sunday! I have a home where my partner watches pets most of the time. We have a backyard and a cozy living space but I would most likely want to stay at your home where your animal can feel comfortable and safe.
“Both of my pets cat and the hamster look great upon our return home (8 days away). Mari took great care of them, plus was able to make friends with extremely shy cat.. usually he won’t eat when we were away. This time seems that he gained weight and his coat is shiny . Two times per day I had detailed updates about how my pets are doing.”
“So pleased with Arin checking in on my cat Nellie while I was away several days. She fed her dinner each night and kept her some company. Nellie is a bit shy and takes time to warm up and Arin was patient with her. Responsive, on time check ins, and shared how each visit went! Very happy with all of Arin’s help.”
“Megan was a great sitter for Nyla. She was very flexible when I added additional visits and requested changes in the visits. I will definitely be scheduling her for future visits.”
About: For the last two years I worked as a professional pet sitter in New Orleans, but it doesn’t stop there! I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life! Growing up my family had many dogs around, right now we have two in house and a total of 6 outside of the house belonging to my brothers and sisters! I’ve also taken care of plenty of cats in my life! I’m a big animal lover, I’ve been pet sitting for my moms friends since I was 15 years old, I walk, bathe, feed and play with every pet I watch! I make sure that the animals feel safe with me, that’s what I care about the most! I’m a big lover to all animals and I want them to know that they are loved! I’m a full time actress but I provided care 24/7! Most of my days are at home or auditioning or filming auditions so if you text me asking me to come stop by, I’m more than happy to drop everything to take care of your furry ones! If I’m at your house, I respect your home like I’d want someone to respect mine. I’ll stay only where you ask me to stay and do only what I’m allowed to do! But I won’t make it uncomfortable for the pets, I know they can sense this stuff! If you leave a list of how you take care of your pet for me to follow, I’ll make sure to follow it step by step!
About: I’ve always had dogs and cats in my life. Most recently, my partner and I expanded our family with two kitties, Gio & Jojo. During grad school, I also worked as a professional dog walker, walking 4-6 dogs on- and off-leash on hikes around local parks, and I generally averaged about 9-12 hikes per week. (I’ll keep yours on leash unless you and I are both comfortable letting your pup off leash in less-trafficed areas). I also dog sat for many of those clients, as well as several clients here. I work from home with a very flexible schedule, so I have plenty of availability to leave the house during the day and evening for walks and drop-ins. I may just have to work around some meetings. My partner Zachary is a grad student with a flexible schedule who also helps out with the pet sitting! I can accommodate to whatever type of living space the pet is in. I will make sure they are given their food and water and medication if needed on schedule, they get out all of their energy during walks and playtime, their bathroom needs are taken care of, and any potential mess is cleaned up. I’ll also make sure your cat or dogs gets all the pets and cuddles they want!
About: I have worked with cats and dogs over the past 8 years. I have a cat of my own and have fostered, rescued and socialized stray cats. I also have experience walking dogs and taking them out on pee and poop breaks! I love animals and would love to take care of your pets so you can travel carefree! I work a hybrid tech job so I can come by during the mornings and evenings and might be more flexible during the day depending on the day of the week. Please drop a message so we can figure out the schedule! I am very meticulous when it comes to pet safety - whether it is looking out for an approaching dog, caring for a cat/dog that is a shy/skittish etc.
About: My pet care experience began in 2022 when I helped care for and raise my grandmother’s domestic shorthair cat, whom I still treat like my own. Before 2022, I grew up caring for family dogs, gaining experience with handling, grooming, and caring for dogs of different sizes, breeds, and personalities. Since 2023, I have volunteered at the ASPCA, where I’ve learned from animal care professionals about providing animals with patience, compassion, attention, and consistent routines. I now try to bring these experiences to pet sitting, intending to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, loved, and like family while in my care. Hi, and welcome! I’m Ariana, and I’m a part-time dog handler at a doggy daycare, but decided to start pet sitting in 2024 to expand my skills and experiences to help more fur babies thrive! I’m available Monday–Friday with weekends off, giving me a flexible schedule for pet care. My job is also aware that I do pet sitting, so I can always let them know if I need to make any arrangements with my shifts to match your pet’s routine. If anything, feel free to review my calendar for more details on my availability. ¡También hablo algo de español! I live in a small apartment, but I will ensure it’s spacious, clean, and pet-friendly, ready for your pet’s arrival so they can be comfortable, with enough space to play, run, and sleep anywhere they like. I also live with family, including my two younger siblings, aka my two little active helpers, who make sure to be gentle, patient, attentive, and willing to always give me a hand with your pet so they’re never alone or bored.
About: "As a devoted pet lover with over [X] years of experience, I offer personalized care tailored to your pet's unique needs, ensuring they feel cherished and secure while you're away. From daily walks to cuddle sessions, I provide a seamless and stress-free experience for both you and your beloved furry friend. I have a very open day to day life, with only school being remote. My availability is usually always open. Pet care is not just a job for me, it's a passion woven into my daily routine. In my home or yours, pet care is always tailored to your furry friend's comfort and routine. Whether they prefer the familiarity of their own surroundings or the cozy atmosphere of a pet friendly environment, I provide attentive care, including feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention. With a keen eye for detail and a deep love for animals, I ensure their safety, happiness, and well being are my top priorities, creating a home away from home experience they'll wag their tails about!
About: I’ve taken care of my sweet senior dog for all of his nearly 18 years. I fully understand that seniors need a little extra love and attention 🩵 I’ve also been the default dog and cat sitter for friends when they have needed it. I have experience giving medicine and eye drops for dogs. I’m also happy to learn any other medical care needs if needed! My little guy passed recently, so I’m just here to give your fur babies some love while you are away 🩵 I work from home, so I’m pretty flexible and can take breaks midday to walk and play. I’m available for boarding most work days and weekends. I live on a quiet street that is great for walks, and there is also an open yard for quick potty breaks. I have no other pets in the home and only take one client at a time, so your pets will have my full attention!
About: I grew up with dogs and took care of the dogs in the neighborhood for extra cash in high school. I love animals and I even found a way to incorporate that love into my undergrad psychology education at Oswego with courses in canine behavior. I'm currently a work from home graduate student working towards my MA in psychology so I have plenty of felxibility to help you fill in the gaps for your pet care needs. I live in a quiet building across the street from a park for routine exercise if your fur baby happens to be staying with me. There's always time for a good walk and a nap.
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Cliffside Park is $25
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cliffside Park
Vanessa has watched Frankie, our 3-month old mini-Aussie with boatloads of energy, twice now, and both times have been absolutely amazing. Frankie loves getting to play and run around with Vanessa, and has even learned new tricks! We really appreciate Vanessa's time and patience and would recommend her to anyone in need of a caring petsitter!
Melissa was amazing and we will definitely book her again. She was so sweet with our new pup Stella and really helped us out in a pinch when our previous dog walker couldn’t make it. She sent great photos and detailed recaps of their walks and play time every day. Communication was quick and easy. She even sent pics and interacted with our cat whom she was not looking in on. Thank you so much Melissa!!
Martina took wonderful care of my dogs and gave them the attention they needed. It was clear she genuinely cared about them, and I felt comfortable knowing they were in good hands. I’d happily book her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive dog sitter.
Sarah took wonderful care of our fur babies once again! She is so caring and communicative. She kept a close eye on everything, quickly noticing a rash under Mojo’s armpit and checking in with me right away to consult on what to do. Even though Shakira can be hit-or-miss with wee-wee pads, Sarah handled the accidents without hesitation or complaint. Plus, she sent tons of cute photo updates every day. I felt completely at ease while traveling knowing they were in such loving hands.
This is very long overdue but we absolutely LOVE Andrea for Fig! She’s been doing drop in visits for us since Fig was around 12 weeks old, and she still gets excited every time Andrea comes by. We highly recommend her all our rules are followed, we get photos every time, and she’s a great communicator!!

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 Cliffside Park 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.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
