Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Elizabeth
Kethely is such a sweetheart and was amazing with our baby pomsky! She was such a big help when we needed someone for drop in visits while on vacation. She always sends daily videos and pictures so that we were constantly updated on how our puppy was doing, and it gave us peace of mind knowing the good care our fur baby was in. We would definitely rebook with her and highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable caring pet sitter!
Joanne was AMAZING with our lil ones. We never had someone come over to take care of them other than close family, so we were a little worried but Joanne gave us the confidence with excellent communication, always on time and sending us pictures. Thanks to her we were able to enjoy our vacation! We appreciate it so much. We will definitely be booking again. Super highly recommended!
Paula was responsive and responsible during the booking and meeting process. I have a 12 week old poodle. He has lots of unbridled puppy energy. he is really just learning how to walk on a leash.. Paula was very patient getting the leash and harness on him as well as walking him. I do appreciate that. I would recommend Paula and I would use her for future walks once my dog matures thank you.👍🏽🙌🏽🙏
Hazel is incredibly reliable. Every year our walker goes on vacation for a month. For the past three years we’ve been able to rely on Hazel to step in & take care of our furbaby, who can be super anxious. Hazel is attentive, communicative, patient kind and gentle with our Mona & we are so grateful.
Ashley did stop in visits and walks several times a day for 5 days while I was away and I felt so at ease knowing she was going to be taking care of my furr babies. She is so patient, loving and affectionate with them they love her presence. I am so happy I have found such an amazing sitter who I can count on. I would recommend her if you are looking for a sitter!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Elizabeth 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 Elizabeth 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 Elizabeth with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
