About: Ever since my family got our first dog, I absolutely fell in love with them. I offered to always watch after my friend’s dogs whenever their family would travel. I would walk them, play with them, and always send cute updates about their pup! I am currently unemployed this summer so I will have plenty of time to play and walk your pups! I’m typically available any day of the week and I am also open to same-day scheduling. If I am not available I will let you know as soon as possible! Having dogs myself, I have learned how to take properly care for them and understand the importance of keeping them safe, happy, and comfortable. I always follow owner’s instructions, make sure pets have plenty of food and water, exercise, and lots of attention!
“Wonderful job taking care of our bunny. Daily drop ins were a success. She went above and beyond when our bunny ran out of pellets and ran to Petco for a refill. She even brought in our mail daily. She provided updates and pictures daily! I would totally trust Jenn in the future! She makes it easy to vacation knowing our bunny is in good hands.”
About: I’ve always had dogs in my life and can’t imagine a home without them! I’ve had my own pups since I was little and currently share my days with my dog, Jagger. Since I work from home, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, walks, and cuddles throughout the day. I truly treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I work from home, which makes my schedule very flexible. I love spending time with dogs & cats and giving them plenty of love, playtime, and care. My goal is to make things easier for you while ensuring your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved. Please let me know if your dog or cats has any special needs, routines, or behaviors I should be aware of—like medication, dietary restrictions, or separation anxiety. I want to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m great with dogs and cats of all sizes and energy levels, but it’s helpful to know their personality and what makes them happiest!
About: I have experience dog sitting and walking family and friends’ dogs and I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing with company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own. Hi! I’m a dependable pet lover offering drop-in visits and dog walks in the Bergen County area. During visits I can provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication instructions (if needed), and plenty of attention so your pet stays comfortable while you’re away. I have experience caring for family and friends’ dogs of different sizes and personalities, and I’ve also raised three cats since they were kittens (my oldest is 7 years old). Living with cats has taught me to pay attention to body language, routines, and the little details that help pets feel safe and relaxed. My schedule is currently very flexible, which allows me to spend quality time with each pet rather than rushing between visits. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine and send updates and photos so you know they’re doing well. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your pet is a big decision. I aim to be reliable, communicative, and gentle with every animal I care for, and I’ll treat your pet with the same patience and care I give my own. I provide safe, reliable drop-in visits and dog walks to keep your pets happy and comfortable. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, provide plenty of attention, and make sure every walk is safe and enjoyable
“Erick did a great job taking care of our cat following my wife's exacting food prep standards over several days while we were away. We had an intro meeting ahead of our planned visits, and after that we had an unexpected change of plans and he was able to accommodate a different schedule on short notice. He was on time, responsive, and dependable. He played with the cat, fed him, changed his water, and cleaned his litterbox. Erick also went above and beyond, ie he brought in packages left on the porch and pulled in the trash container from the curb after the weekly pickup. Highly recommended.”
“Natalie was just fantastic! She came over for a meet and greet and my dogs instantly loved her. From the moment she met them I could tell she was a dog person and animal lover. Coordinating a drop in with Natalie was super easy. I really appreciate she was able to take my dogs for a walk with only a few days notice. You can't go wrong with Natalie!”
About: I’ve worked with my sister that has run in home boarding for over 15 years, I have handled dogs of all sizes and had a lot of experience with pets of my own!

I am punctual and will follow all rules to ensure pet safety! Will follow all directions and my main efforts would be to make your pets feel comfy and safe with me, taking care of pets has always been enjoyable to me.
“Scarlett is wonderful! We will continue to trust her with our boy as long as she continues to dog sit! She is reliable, attentive & our dog absolutely loves her. She has also helped us when we’ve needed help at the last minute and we are so appreciative!”
About: I’m back on Rover. I was taking a break due to personal reason. Dogs are like children for me. Pet's needs come first than anything else in my life. Dogs live in their families' hearts. For dogs, their family is their world. Dogs never want to be separated from their families even for a day or hours. When their family is away, dogs need more love, more attention, more petting to give them comfort. I never ignore pets. Their company makes me feel loved. Your dog will enjoy more than you when you go on vacation. I would be happy to serve your dog - food cooked by you with no extra charge. Your dog will get GMO free organic treats. You can also provide your dog's favorite treats. No crates - only if owner wants and brings. Your dog will never be alone, complete day and night care. Clean filtered water always next to them day and night. I change their drinking water multiple times. I work part time from hone So I am always available for my dog guest. I order my groceries online when I am watching my dog guest. Your dog will never be left alone in the house. I use gates inside the house if needed for their safety. I walk one dog at a time.
“Andrew takes great care of our 2 cats. He always replies quickly, was very thoughtful during our meet and when taking care of our cats. We have been away with peace of mind thanks to him”

“Sara was an absolutely amazing pet sitter for the week. She took such good care of my two cats that this was the first time they weren’t mad at me for days after I returned home. She sent plenty of pictures everyday that really put me at ease and showed me that my babies were happy. Sara also went above and beyond when my flight home got cancelled and she was able to go and feed them for an extra day. Sara was great with communication and anyone would be lucky to have her watch their pets. I will definitely be using her for any future vacations!”

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.
Karen is the BEST! She took such great care of my 2 dogs! They are still pups and are needy and get into a lot of mischief, but Karen went above and beyond! I highly recommend Karen and hope she is always available to take care of my dogs in the future. One dog is very timid and cautious around strangers but she took to Karen right away. One dog got injured before we left and Karen took excellent care of her wound. One dog was a picky eater and had to be spoon fed, but Karen got my dog to eat on her own, which my dog has continued to do, even after we came home!
We couldn’t be happier with the care Suzanne gave our dog while we were away. Our dog can be difficult to manage, but Suzanne handled her with such patience and skill. She truly went above and beyond!! She sent constant photos and thoughtful updates that gave us complete peace of mind. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, caring, and experienced sitter. Suzanne is a gem!!
Natalie is an amazing sitter - she has an intuitive understanding of animals, a kind & loving approach, and took great care of my dog. Her adherence to instructions and attention to detail were excellent, and the communication was great throughout the process. Will definitely book again.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Dumont stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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 Dumont 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 Dumont 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.
