About: We genuinely love spending time with dogs and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. As a husband-and-wife team, you’ll have two dedicated animal lovers caring for your pet, giving you added peace of mind and flexibility. We’ve been dog owners for over 15 years and have raised two dogs from puppies through their senior years. That experience has taught us patience, consistency, and how to care for dogs at every stage of life—from energetic puppies who need structure and play to senior dogs who require a slower pace, extra attention, and gentle care. We know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so we’ll always treat your dog like one of our own. Whether we’re stopping by for a visit or taking your dog on a walk, we’ll follow your instructions carefully, provide plenty of love and attention, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know your pet is happy and well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine because we both work from home, giving us the flexibility to schedule walks and drop-in visits throughout the day. With our two children in elementary school, we’re already active in the community and have a routine that allows us to provide dependable care before work, during lunch breaks, after school, evenings, and on many weekends. As a husband-and-wife team, one of us is often available, allowing us to be flexible and reliable for your pet’s needs. Whether your dog needs a midday potty break, a walk to burn off energy, or a little extra companionship while you’re away, we’re happy to help and will always make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are our top priorities. During every drop-in visit or walk, we’ll follow your care instructions closely—from feeding schedules and medications (if needed) to favorite walking routes and playtime preferences. We know that keeping pets on their normal routine helps them feel comfortable while you’re away. We’ll treat your home with the same respect we’d expect for our own by ensuring doors and gates are securely locked, keeping your home tidy, and making sure your pet is safe before we leave. We’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. We understand that every dog is unique, so we’ll take the time to get to know their personality, energy level, and comfort level to provide patient, loving, and dependable care every visit.
About: I have a love for animals and it shows in my level of care. I am a future veterinarian. Growing up my house always resembled a zoo, I’ve had dogs , cats, rabbits , turtles, fish , iguanas , birds, and even a crow. Yes a crow! Lol. I was always that person to bring home animals and take care of them whether I asked my mother if I can have them or not. I’m a caring soul with a caring heart and I hope to see and connect with you and your fur baby soon. A side from being a mother my other full time job would be this. I have a large amount of free time so my schedule is open. As things start to pick up availability is subject to change. I offer a safe and controlled home for your fur baby to relax comfortably. My home is clean and animal friendly. Plently of space for long walks and new scents.
About: I spend time with dogs at my job on a daily. Though I work in a shoe store, I walk them and make sure they are being fed and loved properly. I also make sure they don’t chew the shoes we sell :D I am working part time so I hope to take care of your pets on the weekend and on some week days but I will be sure to make this as purposeful as it is to have a pet; another member of the family. My house is extremely spacious as it barely has rooms connected through doors, but rather wide entrances, not to mention a long downstairs basement newly renovated perfect for your pet to have an adventure in. And of course a comfortable back and front yard for your pet to roam freely but looked over at all times.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cresskill
We made last-minute plans and were worried about finding pet care until we met Rachel! Her prompt reply to our inquiry and willingness to meet with us before the trip put us completely at ease—we left for the weekend feeling confident our pets were in great hands. With each drop-in, Rachel sent detailed, thoughtful messages and photos, so there was never a doubt about how well cared for our two dogs and cat were. She was precise, professional, and clearly took the time to understand each of our animals' personalities and needs. Communication was clear and consistent throughout, and it was obvious Rachel genuinely cared. We'd recommend her without hesitation and will absolutely book her again.
Rhinesca took great care of Tyler while we were away. She took him for walks, made sure he had fresh water and food, and kept us updated throughout the stay. Communication was excellent, and I really appreciated knowing Tyler was being well cared for. I would definitely book with her again.
Alex took wonderful care of my senior dog Georgie. He came to walk him, gave him a treat, and made sure his water bowl was full before leaving. He follows instructions carefully, is responsible and always punctual. I felt completely at ease knowing Georgie was in good hands. I will absolutely continue using Alex in the future, including longer stays. Highly recommend.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Cresskill stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Cresskill 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

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.
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.
To find sitters in Cresskill with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
