“Keunyung was great. I'm so happy to find someone locally who I can trust with my girls. Hooray! She followed my instructions, sent pictures and also asked questions. The girls looked calm & relaxed when I picked them up - they seemed quite content and happy. I highly recommend Keunyung.”
“Pablo had a great stay with Kehlani and was very happy when I picked him up. Additionally, Kehlani was very responsive before and during the time she cared for him. I was also appreciative of the fact she was available on somewhat late notice. I will definitely check to see if she is available the next time we need a dog sitter.”
“Kiky was absolutely fantastic with my 5-year-old Yorkie! She is incredibly patient and caring, which is so important for a smaller dog. I really appreciated how responsive she was throughout the booking, and the photos she sent were amazing—it was so nice to see my pup looking happy and settled. It’s clear she has a genuine love for dogs and takes great care of them. I felt totally at ease leaving him in her hands and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Wei was amazing and I highly recommend her. I can tell Ruby had a great day of Doggy Day Care while we were gone for the entire day. Wei is very communicative and punctual. Will definitely book with her again! Thank you!”
“Laura was wonderful with our German shepherd Rosie, with lots of enthusiastic care. She kept us up to date with photos and reports so we knew Rosie was happy and relaxed. We recommend Laura’s services!”
“Cassandra and Jennifer were amazing! Our dog was smiling when we picked her up. I’d highly recommend Cassandra and Jennifer and we plan to use them again.”
“Super responsive, easy to communicate with, and convenient drop off location right by Central Park! Our dog came back happy :) will definitely reach out to Euitae again when we’re in UWS!”
About: My love for dogs started the moment a stray wandered into my yard when I was a child - I hid him in the backyard for three days before my parents found out ! :) I’ve been caring for animals in various capacities for most of my life and have been part of the Rover community since 2022. As a PhD student who does Rover full-time, I have the flexibility to be available when needed. Whether it’s drop-ins, house-sitting, boarding, or walks, I’m happy to accommodate your schedule - including last-minute bookings. Your pet will always have my complete, undivided attention! I’ll always respect your home and routines, following your rules and adapting to whatever works best for your companion. I’ll treat your fur baby with the same love and care you would, and do everything I can to make them comfortable and at ease while you are away. A note to pet parents: If your pet has any special needs, allergies, medications, or specific conditions or triggers, please share them with me. The more I know, the better I can care for them! Can’t wait to meet you! 🐾 I am currently a full-time PhD student working remotely. I typically have a few social events in the evening or weekends for a few hours. Otherwise I’m home and able to care for your furry one full time! :) I will always follow the rules of your home and take their health needs seriously, caring for them as if they were my own fur baby!
“Sonya was great with Ruby and Ruby loved playing with her and her dog Wallace. Sonya sent great pics and videos and was communicative and flexible about meeting place and times. We will be booking with her again soon!”
“Pamela helped me out last minute. Was lucky she was walking distance, since I didn’t have my car for the day. She kept me updated with videos and photos. I will most definitely be using her again. Thank you”
“Denise L was fantastic! I booked her last minute on Rover to watch my furry baby Camilla, and she was super responsive and accommodating. Camilla was happy and well cared for. Denise also gave camilla her medications and made the whole experience stress-free. I’d definitely book her again!”
“Jay and his partner Ana were incredible. Jay was highly communicative, accommodating and good with our puppy Kona. They went above and beyond to not only set up Kona’s crate and send us cute updates every few hours but also take her to the groomer’s for us and liaison between us and the groomer for that appointment. I know Kona had such a blast with their dog Dani and a visiting one, it was a really ideal daycare situation! We’ll for sure be back to them when we need help again.”
About: I love dogs and understand that yours is part of your family. I have owned dogs for over 18 years (male german shepherd mix and female pitbull) and I know what makes them tick! I have experience walking fussy/reactive, even aggressive dogs, both big and small. I just can’t live without them. With reasonable notice, I am available pretty much all day long for dog walks and sits. I can always easily adjust my schedule and am very flexible when it comes to last minute arrangements. No issues moving dates around if my calendar is open. I have a fenced in yard and the house is plenty spacious. My goal is always to provide a safe and comfortable experience for your pet.

“Emma was wonderful with my baby. He seemed to have a really great time and I’m glad he got along with Emma’s dog Bumbas. My baby is tuckered out and about to go to sleep earlier than usual for a Saturday. I plan to connect with Emma again and I’m going to recommend her to all of my dog parents. Thanks again Emma!”
“Susan was very pleasant to work with and took great care of our dog Skylar. She sent updates and photos throughout the day. We highly recommend booking with her and are confident any dog under her care will be in great hands!”

It was my first experience leaving my dog at someone else’s home, but Oscar was so excited to spend the day at Sophie’s! She took great care of my baby and even sent me a picture of him :) Now, every time we pass by somewhere near her place, Oscar pulls me towards it :) I would definitely book a stay with Sophie again and would highly recommend her!
Wan was amazing. She took care of our puppy, Arlo, exactly as we asked. He had a great time there with Wan and her dog. She kept us updated with pictures and videos throughout the day. We will definitely book with her again the next time we need a dog sitter. Thank you Wan!
Abby was incredibly sweet with my anxious senior dog. She sent pics and updates throughout the day and was extremely responsive and communicative. She even went above and beyond to drop him off at my work to save me the trip of going to pick him up. I would definitely book with Abby again!
Made a last-minute booking, and Jessica was very accommodating and easy to communicate with. She responded to my questions within the day and regularly sent me pictures of my dog. It was nice knowing my dog was doing well while I was away. Overall, she was really nice, caring, and I would definitely recommend her!
Darlene is great! Every time I take my Charlie to see her she walks right in to her place excited to see her. Darlene always send me tons of photos through the day of their walks and snuggles. Charlie has a bit of anxiety, but she’s totally at ease when I drop her off.
Pablo had a great stay with Kehlani and was very happy when I picked him up. Additionally, Kehlani was very responsive before and during the time she cared for him. I was also appreciative of the fact she was available on somewhat late notice. I will definitely check to see if she is available the next time we need a dog sitter.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Cliffside Park commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NJ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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. 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Meet & Greet .
