“Keunyung is such a nice person and also great with Smokey! She makes sure he gets healthy treats along with his normal food, and they even snuggle up together and watch TV, just like he’s at home. I’m definitely not going to look for another sitter as long as she’s around!”
“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!”
“Basil seemed to have the time of his life with Wei Han & her pup! Loved seeing photo updates throughout the day, would definitely love to rebook in the future :)”
“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!”
“Kadeem went above and beyond to accommodate changes in both of our schedules. His care of my dog allowed me to work an event in the area and know my pup was cared for.”
“Wei and Jason have been my go to sitters for Nellie for a couple of years now. Nellie has difficulties staying alone but with Euitae I can go to work calmly knowing Nellie is having a fulfilling day and with pictures to boot, highly recommend!”
“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!”
“Jatna was a wonderful dog carer! She was able to host my dog last minute for three days of daycare and was so professional, caring, communicative, accommodating, and knowledgeable. My pup can be particular and I felt very comfortable knowing she was in Jatna's capable care. Thank you!”
“Chunk loved her from first glance! Highly recommend! She had a great touch with him, and was able to tell what he wanted. Vanessa listened to what we wanted for him, and I loved that she treated him like the baby he is! She was so responsive and proactive in letting me know how he was doing.”
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!
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.

“Denise took great care of my two boys! She walked them, played with them and let them have fun with her sweet grandkids in the backyard. She provided plenty of pictures and updates and has a beautiful home to host the dogs in. I can tell she takes pride in having a good home for the dogs she cares for and is very responsive, responsible and attentive! My dogs will be excited to go back and see 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”
“Urvi was wonderful - she was very responsive when we needed a sitter last minute, and she even picked our pup up from our apartment. She sent videos and pictures, and our pup had a great day with her! Would definitely book again next time we need a dog sitter!”
“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!”
“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.”

Darlene is the BEST! Our dog absolutely loves spending time with her. Darlene always keeps us in the loop and shares photos throughout the day. It's clear that she loves animals and takes a lot of pride in her work. Highly recommend her for dog sitting and overnight boarding!
Great host for my Wooli! I highly recommend, she sends updates with videos and pics, understood all directions for wooli since he is deaf. It was a last minute booking and took him in so im very appreciative of that. I'm from California and recommend anyone from out of state to consider Pamela to host your pet 🙂.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 11,445 sitters in Cliffside Park, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
