“Adeib is and continues to be a great sitter for my puppy Norman, who gets so excited to see him whenever he sits. He sends updates throughout so I know he’s in good hands, and I come home to a very happy puppy!”
“This is the third time Angelina has pet sit for us and she is amazing every time! I feel confident that my dog and my home will be well cared for every time Angelina sits for us☺️”
“Iris took a VERY good care of my pup!! She was constantly sending me photographs and videos of Koala every day without asking, which shows her responsibility and dedication to dog sitting. Koala always looked happy on videos and I could see Koala is in a very good mood and overall state, when I came back. I am sure they had a connection:) I am more than happy I chose Iris as a nanny. Definitely going to contact her again in the future!:)”
“I booked a date with Esther and Jay so we could meet each other. I also thought it would give my cat an opportunity to become familiar with them. They arrived exactly on day and time we planned. Esther and Jay are warm and friendly and I found them a joy to have in my home. They asked good questions and I knew they would be wonderful caretakers for my cat. Now if I have to travel, I know my cat and my home will be well looked after.”
“Richard was fantastic. He wasn’t available for our full trip, but immediately offered to pair up with his girlfriend to cover the full time if we were okay with that while also being clear that he’d understand if we weren’t. They both came over to meet us and our super-senior cat, Mad Eye, ahead of time and were very communicative while we were gone, sending lots of pictures and updates on her eating and medication. They were also very helpful and accommodating when we had an unexpected change in travel plans last minute and very respectful of our space. We’d absolutely use either or both of them again!”
“Mika is the best! Our cat has some medical challenges and we are always worried when leaving him. Mika took great care of him and gave us frequent updates so we were able to have peace of mind during our trip. We are so grateful!!”
“Diana does really well with my dog who is very anxious about meeting new people. She keeps me informed about everything my dog does and takes great pictures of my dog. She is very good at taking instructions and takes great care of my dog.”
“Candiance took amazing care of our elderly, attention-addicted cat while we were out of town, making sure she got her meds in and sending regular updates. She was also very gracious when our flight was delayed by several hours and we were late getting back.”
“Alicia did a great job watching Ernie for the day. She communicated well beforehand, took pictures and updated me on how he did, and left the apartment the same as when we left. I definitely recommend her and would use her again!”
“I think this was my fifth or sixth time I hired Anita, and she is simply the best! I can’t say enough nice things about her and how well she takes care of my Missy!!!”
“Mia is absolutely delightful. She gave my very needy kitty a lot of attention, playtime and cuddles. She sent plenty of photos and updates. My kitty got comfortable with her immediately. I’m confident in Mia’s care and will definitely be hiring her again.”
“Clay is amazing! I recently adopted a second cat, and their introduction is not going as smoothly as I expected. Since my 2 cats are not on good terms, I was worried about leaving, but Clay made everything easier. He sent me pictures every day, gave me updates about my kitties, and handled everything with kindness and patience. I would definitely recommend him!”
“Sabrea did a wonderful job watching our high energy border collie and cat while we were on our honeymoon for nearly a month! She was extremely self sufficient, she sent a once daily check-in with photos of our boys, but otherwise we had minimal contact which was great for us since we had limited cell service and were in very different time zones! We returned home and it was like we never left, the apartment was clean and Rigby and Mochi didn’t even notice we had left. We were so so grateful for Sabrea taking such wonderful care of them while we were gone so we could have peace of mind! We would love to have her back for our next trip, and can’t recommend her services enough.”
“Mark was absolutely fantastic with our 6 month old puppy Fig! So much so that we tried to book him again before our first booking was over! He was attentive to her, taking her out frequently as we’re working on potty training, and even teaching her new tricks! He sent videos and pictures and provided updates. He was also very prompt with timing which we appreciated. He is such a kind and caring person- one we trust in our home and with our furbaby anytime. Doesn’t get better than Mark!”
About: my nickname in school was “snow white”, so i believe it was natural for animals to love me, but that also might be the sense of calmness that i (apparently) possess. i’ll take care of your furry family members and they will be more than pleased with my company :D right now i’m vacationing, so my schedule is pretty flexible. i’ll start my college in fall, so i’m trying to save up some money for my tuition i used to live in my aunt’s house for 3,5 years, so i was a permanent caregiver for her lovely yorkie Luna. i fed her, gave her baths and, obviously, walked her, so i’m pretty familiar with how to take care of a dog
About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I actually begged my parents to let me get a dog, promising them that I would be responsible and take great care of him—and I’ve kept that promise ever since! Taking care of my own dog has taught me how much patience, attention, and love pets need every day. I’ve taught my dog eight different tricks, and I love spending time training, playing, and going on walks with him. Whenever I’m at my grandma’s, I always make sure to walk and spend time with her dog too. More recently, I’ve started dog-sitting for friends, which has given me even more experience caring for dogs with different personalities and needs. I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’m a freelance dancer, so I have a flexible schedule and make my own hours. This allows me to make time in my day to give pets the attention and care they need. I’m available for walks, playtime, feeding, and keeping your pet company, and I’m happy to work around their normal routine. I understand that every pet has different needs, so I’m flexible and willing to adjust my schedule to make sure your pet feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I treat every pet like they are my own and make sure they are always in a safe, comfortable, and supervised environment. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any special routines or rules. I make sure doors and gates are secure, keep pets away from anything unsafe, and always pay attention to their behavior and needs. I want every pet to feel comfortable, loved, and at home while their owner is away. I’ll also keep owners updated so they can have peace of mind knowing their pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I have lived with and loved dogs for most of my life. I genuinely treat dogs as part of the family and always ensure that they have enough exercise, food, and affection to live happy & fulfilling doggie lives. I have experience walking and sitting dogs of all sizes. Your dog is guaranteed to get loads of love and attention from me. I have a hybrid work schedule, so I would have plenty of time to care for your dog. I am also physically active in my daily life, and would love for your dog to join me in getting my steps in! I care for pets by making sure their needs have all been met before I start my day. Before leaving the house on a walk I ensure that the collar and leash are secure and there are no possibilities of the dog escaping. Inside the home I ensure that the floor is cleaned up so that the dog is unable to get into anything potentially poisonous or ruin its owners belongings.
About: Hi, I’m Zoe! I’m from California and I like reading, swimming, and animals. I’ve had pets of every shape and size as long as I can remember. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, horses, fish, snakes, lizards, frogs, river otters, and rodents. I’m very responsible, calm, and communicative. I work full time so evenings and weekend are best for me. Let me know what you need and I’ll see what I can do! I’m sensitive and receptive to each animal’s unique needs. My home is very clean and safe and I am also a very neat and detail-oriented person.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Cliffside Park is $60
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Cliffside Park
We couldn’t have asked for a better Rover in Emily! She sent photos throughout the weekend, gave us regular updates, and replied quickly whenever we reached out. From her updates, it was clear she stuck to our pup’s routine and gave him plenty of walks and playtime. We never had to wonder how he was doing, and we knew he was in great hands the whole time. He was happy and relaxed when we got home. We’ll definitely book her again and recommend her to any dog owner. Thank you!
Ashley was amazing! She stepped in when our care fell through at the 11th hour and far exceeded any expectations. She took excellent care of our Roo: she took her on good walks, did some training, and made sure she was happy and healthy. She provided lots of welcome updates so my husband and I could feel at ease. We will absolutely be choosing Ashley again :)
Shirley was AMAZING! I had such a wonderful experience with her, and Diamond was clearly so loved and spoiled while I was away. Shirley kept me updated throughout my trip and was always quick to respond whenever I checked in, which gave me so much peace of mind. She even went above and beyond by tidying up the place and left both Diamond and the house in perfect shape. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend Shirley to anyone! ❤️
Kaila was a wonderful sitter for our senior dog, who is shy and fairly high-maintenance. She gave him a lot of patience and care, and she sent us frequent updates, so we never had to wonder how things were going. We went away knowing our dog was in good hands. Highly recommend Kaila!
Great sitter who gave us plenty of updates about Millie while we were away, making us feel comfortable with the distance from our cat and confident in the care she was receiving. Came back to a clean house and happy cat - can’t ask for more than that! Book with Robin, she is really great and you won’t regret it!
Anita was such an amazing sitter for my cat Arthur! He is a very social cat and she made sure to give him the attention he needed while we were gone. She made sure to send many pictures and videos of Arthur and was very communicative in general, which I appreciated. She was also incredibly accommodating to our needs and even offered to stay an extra hour on the last evening to make sure Arthur wouldn't be lonely free of charge. Definitely book Anita :)
This was my first time using Rover, and I'm so glad I chose Mo! I had a quick one-night work trip, and she stayed with my very anxious Yorkie, who is still getting used to the city and our new apartment. She took wonderful care of him and put me at ease with updates and pictures throughout the night. She was incredibly responsive from start to finish and even left my home spotless. My pup seemed very happy, and I will absolutely book her again!
Aidan was so caring and professional when it came to my pitbull mix, Base, sending plenty of pictures. I came home to a happy, healthy boy. Aidan was also so sweet to me and respectful of the space he was staying in. As we needed a last minute sitter, I am so so grateful that he was available and really came through. I look forward to hiring him again in the future.
Alexis absolutely saved the day when a family emergency came up and we needed someone to house-sit our energetic lab during a very stressful time. She was understanding and accommodating through multiple scheduling pivots, top-notch with communication, and most importantly she took amazing care of Tilly. Alexis is a life-saver, and I honestly can't say enough good things!
Reese is the best!! We just adopted a rescue dog named Koopa a few weeks ago and Koopa loved her from their first meet-and-greet. Reese pet-sat while we were gone for the evening. She was super patient and attentive to Koopa's needs, taking her on multiple walks and keeping Koopa engaged with her toys. Koopa is a bigger dog and still learning how to walk on the leash appropriately with a trainer, so we wanted someone who could handle that energy on her walks and Reese did exactly that! Koopa has a bit of separation anxiety, and it was such a relief to know she was in great hands while we were gone. Reese is excellent at communication and we appreciated all the updates with photos/video while we were out. We came home to a very happy and chilled out dog! I know Koopa can't wait to get another Reese visit, we will definitely be booking with her again!
We had a great experience and felt completely comfortable leaving our two pups in his care! He was very attentive to their routine and made sure he understood everything they needed beforehand. He also kept us updated while we were away, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Our dogs are still young and definitely have some puppy behaviors that we’re working on, and he was very patient and understanding with them. It was clear that they were well cared for and in good hands the entire time. We came home to two happy pups and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. We’d happily book with him again!
Adeib is a very caring and thoughtful sitter. He came early so that we could go over all of ButtetScotch’s medications etc. He seemed to genuinely enjoy hanging out with our boy and our boy liked Adeib as well. We will definitely be booking him again and recommend him highly. Thanks again Adeib.
Desiree was absolutely wonderful with our girl, Topanga! She was so sweet, patient, and understanding, especially when it came to Topanga’s separation anxiety. She took the time to understand her needs and made sure she felt safe, comfortable, and loved throughout the day. It means so much to us knowing our girl was in such caring hands. Thank you, Desiree, for treating Topanga with so much love and kindness! We truly appreciate you and would happily book with you again! ❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Cliffside Park is $75 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $47 and $128 per night. 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 19,267 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cliffside Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Cliffside Park walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Cliffside Park maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
