“Here's a shorter version: --- I recently booked Angela for two nights, and I'm thrilled with the care my dog received. Angela provided regular updates with photos and videos, ensuring my peace of mind. My shy dog quickly warmed up to them, and all his dietary and exercise needs were perfectly met. I came home to a happy pup and a tidy house. Highly recommend Angela for reliable and loving pet care.”
“Doug took excellent care of our dog Winnie! He was incredibly responsive and shared lots of updates and fun pictures. We felt fully at ease and know Winnie was having a great time. We will absolutely be reaching out to Doug again the next time we need help with Winnie!”
“Leaving Zeus with Angie was the best decision we made. She’s not just reliable—she’s warm, thoughtful, and genuinely kind. From the start, I could see how much she cared. She treated Zeus like he was part of her own family, and that level of care made all the difference. Zeus is a sensitive dog. He’s usually very shy, doesn’t warm up to strangers easily, and struggles with separation anxiety. He’s also not the most social when it comes to other animals. But somehow, Angie managed to connect with him. Within just a few days, I could see a shift. He looked relaxed, at ease, and even comfortable hanging around her cats, which is a first. Angie kept me updated every day with photos and videos. I never had to ask—she was always on top of it. I could tell he was happy, healthy, and in good hands. It honestly felt like Zeus was on his own vacation while we were away for 10 days. This was hands down the best experience we’ve had with a dog sitter. Angie is someone I’d trust again without a second thought.”

“Veronica looked after our 2 cats very well. She kept me updated on their day-to-day activities and eating habits. Our cats got along very well with her cats as well. Highly recommend!”
“Very caring and compassionate with my pets! I would highly recommend to any of my friends or family. She treated my cats as her own and always kept me updated. Extremely responsive and helpful with short notices. I can’t even begin to explain how thankful I am for her outstanding services.”
About: I feel what makes me different from other candidates is that I have treats for them. I make sure they are always comfortable. I give you updates on how they are doing. I know as dog parents sometimes we stress of knowing how they are. I also have been working taking care of dogs since I was 15. It was helped me learn a lot through the years Taking care of your fur baby fits in my daily routine because I have extra time and I enjoy going on walks and they bring so much joy. What makes my home safe is that I live a safe area. There is a park across the street across the street. They also get the backyard. There are no kids and they will monitored.
“Karollyne was great with Bizzle. She was kind and understanding and really managed to build trust with Bizzle in a short period of time. Bizzle is a senior dog and just needs gentle care and understanding which Karollyne did a great job! Highly recommended.”

“Sissi provided excellent care for Mochi during her stay. We received daily photos and regular communication on her daily activites. Mochi was very comfortable at Sissi's place which had a fenced in yard on a quiet street. We would use Sissi again and recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”
“I left my dog Scooby with Diamond while I was away on vacation & I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! From the very start, Diamond was reliable, professional, and genuinely caring. She kept me updated with pictures of Scooby, which gave me complete peace of mind. I never had to worry, Scooby was well fed, comfortable, and given plenty of love and attention. When I returned, he was his same playful, happy self, which shows how well he was cared for. I highly recommend Diamond and will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I am an animal-loving, high school science teacher, located in Harrison, NJ (previously in Secaucus, Jersey City and Union City). I welcomed my own puppy home in May 2021 and have plenty of experience taking care of my sisters’ three dogs. I live in a spacious townhouse at a pet-friendly complex that has its own dog park. I’m very good with strict schedules & routines and love taking pictures & videos of my furry friends, so their humans won’t have to worry! I am at work from 7:30am to 4pm every Monday to Friday. I can do check-ins outside of these times. I can board and do doggy daycare only on weekends (starting Friday evening) and my days off, as I do not feel comfortable leaving any animal alone while I’m at work. I am a school teacher, so during the summer, I’ll be home for a majority of the day throughout the week! If I have to leave a pet alone, I will use a pet gate, playpen, or crate as needed so no pet gets into any dangerous situation. For check-ins, I will keep your space as clean as possible, so your pet doesn’t get in any icky situations! I will respect your home and always communicate what I’m doing.
“We left our cavalier king charles with Amanda for the first time and we had a wonderful experience. She and her family did a great job taking care of him, and we received photos of him having fun and going on walks. She lives in a beautiful, calm neighborhood and her house is prepared to host pets. We’ll surely book with her again in the near future.”
“Neide was perfect. My family and I went on a trip for 4 days and she picked Melo up and took great care of him. She sent me pictures of Melo and constantly gave me updates on him. Melo got home safe and happy to be home. Highly recommend Neide”
“Jessie stayed with Tynesha and her family for four days. This was the first time she stayed with someone other than a family member. She sent me photos everyday and I could see that Jessie was happy and bring well taken care of. I will definitely use her again.”
“We booked with Sanaz for a long weekend and Ivy adored her! She sent us daily updates and took Ivy on lots of walks. Ivy gets very anxious when we go anywhere without her, and Sanaz was very understanding of her separation anxiety and made her as comfortable as possible. She also was flexible with timing of drop offs and pick ups which was much appreciated!! Thank you so much! (:”
“I am so grateful for the amazing care my dog received! I had to leave out of state unexpectedly and realized at the last minute that I had made arrangements for everyone except our family dog. Thankfully, Klainer stepped in without hesitation and made the entire experience stress-free. Klainer kept me updated daily with pictures and text messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear my dog was being cared for with love, patience, and attention. I truly appreciate her kindness, reliability, and professionalism. I will most definitely be using her services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter!”
“Christian was great. He provided us with an update as to how our dog Foxy was doing in his care and when we did picker up from him, she looked very happy! We would use him again without hesitation!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - East Orange
Doug, Luiz & the Ink & Tails crew Did an amazing job caring for our one year old Bernadoodle and our 13 year old chihuahua. They were attentive, provided frequent updates, and most importantly treated our pets with the love and care they have for their own. We are lucky we found them and will definitely be using their services again in the future. 🐶
Jenni is an amazing pet sitter! The perfect dog mom replacement for when I need to leave Gus behind. She is very communicative and sent wonderful update photos. Gus is a nervous nelly and gets a little bit of separation anxiety and by the second update picture, I could tell he was already relaxed with her.
What a relief. Our 10yr old Guinny has not had overnight boarding/sitting in years. Now that he is visually impaired and diabetic we were extremely nervous to leave him multiple days. Berenice was so attentive and made us feel comfortable from the very start. She maintained his twice-a-day insulin injection schedule and kept him active. At pick up I could immediately tell he felt safe with her as there was no pulling away, no whining, no fuss. We did not enter fully inside the home but still felt it was welcoming and suitable for dog-siiting. We are happy and will definitely book Berenice again.
I can't recommend Darrin and Debra enough! From the very beginning, they were professional, communicative, and genuinely caring. It was clear that my dog was treated like family, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I received regular updates, photos, and messages, so I always knew my pup was happy, safe, and well cared for. They went above and beyond to make sure my dog's routine stayed consistent, and I could tell my dog felt comfortable and loved. When I returned, my dog was relaxed, healthy, and clearly had a wonderful time. It's such a relief to find someone who is not only reliable but also truly passionate about animals. I will absolutely be booking with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional pet care!
Andrew took great care of our senior Pitty Sommy, he immediately struck us as very friendly and felt like extended family throughout the whole process. His home is beautiful with a gated yard for plenty of space and grass for our Sommy. Andrew made sure to update us with photos throughout the stay, and made sure Sommy was well taken cared for. We will definitely book with Andrew again, without hesitation.
From the moment leo was dropped off, I knew he was in great hands. Miasha took such wonderful care of him and kept me updated with pictures and messages throughout his stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was obvious that Leo was treated with so much love, patience, and attention. I truly appreciated the excellent communication and how much she cared about his comfort and happiness. I would absolutely trust her with Leo again and highly recommend miasha to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and caring dog sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of my baby!
I can’t thank Sissi enough for taking such wonderful care of our Sammy! She made him feel welcome and at home while we were away. Sammy is usually anxious without us and we could tell he felt comfortable and happy. We appreciated the daily updates and photos which made us feel at ease. Thanks so much! Until next time.
Jennifer was absolutely wonderful with Brooklyn! She kept us updated throughout his stay with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was incredibly patient and understanding with his little quirks, and it was clear he was well cared for and loved. She even accommodated us for an extra night when our flight was delayed, which we were so grateful for. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jennifer again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter. Thank you so much, Jennifer! 🐾💛

There are 14,487 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in East Orange. About 88% of East Orange sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

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 pet, 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.
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 .
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
