About: I love playing with my dog and always make sure he is feed, walked, and is having fun. I have also been around a few different animals and always try to taylor how I treat them towards them. At 8:30am and 6:00pm my dog gets a walk and I let out my dog whenever he stands by my back door into my fenced in yards where he is free do do as he pleases (there is nothing dangerous back there). I walk him around 30 min after his meals so he get a good bowel movement in. I would alway try to leave everything as it is and only to touch what I am instructed too. The would be taken the upmost care of.
About: I've had pets all my life, but within the last few years I've helped out with the pets of friends, family members, and roommates when they've traveled. This has included walking dogs of all sizes, taking them to the dog park for further activity, and the occasional house-sitting for a week or two at a time. I’m pretty adaptable and I’d be more than happy to work alongside you to make sure the needs of your pet are taken care of. while they’re in my care! I have relative flexibility and can be available for last minute drop ins if needed. I recently just finished getting my graduate degree while I apply for a full-time job. I’m free during the week during the days and have open availability on the weekends. If taking care of your dog, on walks I plan to leash them at all times as well as keeping a safe distance from any other animals we may come by.
About: I’ve cared for lot of different dogs from anxious dogs, to the happy high spirited ones. In most cases I’ve found dogs away from home just need a little more attention & a little more patience. I like to set up their routine per owner instructions of course, and keep there life like business as usually if not better. Since I’m on a work from home Flexible schedule, I can dedicate a lot more time to tend to their needs through each day. I have very structured, and tend to be an early riser. I like to run or workout in the morning so typically would bring the dog with me to the park In the am with walks through out the day as I tend to run most errands walking distance. Etc All I ask is your informed me of any allergies, health or non health related problems so I can prepare for their stay. Communication is key.
About: I’m a college student with 4 years experience who loves dogs, enjoys spending time playing with them, and really likes meeting and caring for new dogs whenever I get the chance. I have experience caring for dogs and puppies through helping family members with their pets, including feeding, walking, playtime, and providing loving, reliable care to keep pets safe, happy, comfortable, and well cared for.” I follow a daily schedule to care for my cats, including feeding them in the morning and evening, cleaning litter boxes regularly, providing fresh water, and spending time playing and bonding with them throughout the day. I provide a safe, trustworthy, and comfortable environment for pets by following their routine closely, ensuring their space is clean and secure, giving them fresh food and water, and offering gentle, attentive care and companionship.
About: Hi! I’m a Columbia University graduate student trying to get by. I have taken care of a large range of animals including hamsters, geckos, cats, and dogs. Friends and family have both trusted me with their furry friends. I treat animals like they’re my own (I spoil my cat son Hugo) and make sure to receive the best care! I work a full time job, but I am available on all evenings after 5 and mornings before 9am. I am also available during all hours of the day on weekends. I live in an apartment, but I am happy to watch your pets at your home. If needed, my apartment has a lot of space, and I live in a walkable, dog friendly neighborhood near a park!
About: Hello! Besides having four cats and two large dogs growing up, and being the primary pet sitter for several friends and colleagues over the past ten years, I have been the primary caregiver/parent to two dogs. One, Greta, I raised from puppyhood; the other, Honey, I adopted at 12 and cared for in the final years of her life. Both of these dogs experienced medical complications: Greta was adopted with heartworm, which was cured after a strict regimen, and Honey experienced kidney failure in her old age, for which I gave her daily IVs for nearly a year. Both dogs came to me with behavioral problems, including dog aggression and separation anxiety. I was able to care for both dogs and keep them safe, and am experienced with pets with medical needs. I am experienced as a pet owner and caregiver, and will follow your instructions carefully and check in often. I work from home and would love to do so with your beloved pet by my side, where I can give them lots of pets, walks, and cuddles. I hope I get to meet your pet soon! I work from home 4/5 days a week, though I can usually work from home an entire week if needed. I will check in with your pet’s schedule, and let you know if I am able to meet their needs. As a general rule, I never leave a pet alone for more than 6 hours, but I am flexible according to your pet’s specific needs. I always leave a home I am visiting clean, and am happy to do what I can to make sure you are comfortable with me in your home. I am a lifelong New Yorker and can navigate trains and buses to your home easily. I may have access to a car shortly, if you live somewhere inaccessible by train. In my home, I keep food unreachable to pets wherever possible and have pet beds available for their use. I do not have any pets in my home at the moment. I live right next to one of the largest parks in New York City, and am happy to take your pet for walks, or even to the dog park nearby if they are comfortable with other dogs.
“This was my 1st time using Rover. Melodies had a meeting & greet with me to get to know my fur babies. She walked them and sent pics. They were very happy and Melodie is sooo sweet, patient kind & easy to work with. I will definitely use her again. I felt so comfortable while away due to all of her updates and pics. She made my time away from my babies so easy and I didn't worry once. I will definitely book with her again. Thanks Melodie :)”
“Alexandra was great all around!! She did multiple drop-ins a day and took great care of my senior dog and cat. She was prompt, reliable, friendly and communicated very well & always took a lot of pictures which I really appreciated. Highly recommend Alexandra!”
About: Long-term dog walker with years of experience and a big heart for animals 🐾 I’m gentle, patient, and love building trust with every pup. Whether your dog wants a slow sniffy stroll or a happy adventure, I’ll treat them like my own 💕🐕 I’m currently working part time. I get constant breaks, I would be able to walk any nearby neighbor dogs in specific time frames for you I care for pets as if they were my own—gently, patiently, and with lots of love. In my client’s home, I follow their routine closely so pets feel safe and comfortable in their familiar space. This includes feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection.
About: I have walked all kinds of dogs since I was 15. I started with Pitbulls in my neighborhood and walked all sizes since then. I went on to adopt a dog 10 years ago and now live with my fiancé who brought her own dog into our home. I will always be a dog father for the rest of my life and truly value what they mean to someone as a pet/partner and in some cases -child. I already walk my dog 3 times a day so pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Currently dog walking is my only profession as I look for work so I am completely open to accommodate any scheduling requests. Having walked many different types of dogs throughout my life, I know that each dog has different personalities and needs that must be accommodated for. Each pet has its own routine that helps make sure they are happy and healthy. One of my dogs is very good at communicating when he needs to go outside, and I can read his cues and take him out for multiple walks in quick succession. Another one of my dogs is much more of a habit former and appreciates a longer walk that tires him out and gets all his energy out of his system. I constantly check on them both emotionally and physically to make sure there are no problems with their habits or their physical bodies. I always like to make sure the dogs I take care of get to spend quality time with me either at my home or at the client's home to help relax them after or before a long walk. I never leave the house without checking they have food and water readily available, and a treat to make sure they're feeling loved and cared for.
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life! Growing up, I had all kinds of pets. Today, my furry best friend is Twix, my playful male Yorkie, who keeps me smiling every day. Since I work from home, your pet will receive plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. I also live just minutes from the George Washington Bridge and Newark Liberty International Airport, making drop-offs and pickups especially convenient for travelers. Im also close to a beautiful park and walking trails, providing the perfect setting for long walks, exercise, playtime, and lots of fresh air. Whether your pet loves adventures outdoors or relaxing with plenty of cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is a consistent part of my daily routine. I am able to feed and walk my pets at set times, and build in play breaks into my weekly schedule. I’m available for home visits, extended stays, drop-ins, walks, and in-home care as needed. I’m flexible and happy to work with each pet’s individual routine and needs.
About: I am a pet lover, I’ve owned cats and dogs my whole life. I am empathetic and hard working, so your pets would be in thoughtful hands with me! I fully remote every weekday so I am around for every moment. I hope to be honest with you and build a great schedule based on your pet’s needs. I live in an apartment alone with my cat. I have an elevator in case your pups prefer it. I live around several parks great for taking dogs on walks.
About: I’ve been a dog owner for years and have cared for pups at every stage of life—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who needed extra patience, gentleness, and consistency. I’ve raised one dog through his puppy years and lovingly supported two others through their golden years, so I’m comfortable with training basics, routines, mobility changes, medications, and slower-paced walks when needed. Over the years, friends have trusted me with their dogs while they travel, and now that I have more space in my home—and a large, fully fenced yard—I’m excited to do this regularly. My dog, Ochosi, and I love getting outside for long walks and hikes, and I’m happy to tailor activity levels to each dog’s age, energy, and needs—whether that means an adventurous trail day or a cozy afternoon of cuddles. As a bonus, my roommate is also a longtime dog lover and former dog owner, so your pup will get extra attention and affection beyond just me and Ochosi. Between our household, your dog will be surrounded by care, play, and consistency while you’re away. As an empowerment coach, I work mostly from home, which allows me to be present with the dogs I care for throughout the day. I do have occasional workshops, classes, and client visits that take me out of the house part-time, but I always plan my schedule carefully so pups get plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, and companionship. Whether caring for your dog in my home or yours, I focus on keeping routines consistent, energy balanced, and tails wagging. I tailor walks, playtime, and downtime to each pup’s age and personality—from adventurous hikes to gentle strolls and cozy evenings. With a big fenced yard for safe outdoor play, plenty of affection from me, Ochosi, and my dog-loving roommate, and regular photo updates for you, your dog will feel secure, happy, and right at home.
About: I’ve had all sorts of pets since I was a little girl. Mostly dogs and cats in my adult years. I haven’t gotten a new dog since I had to say goodbye to my last furry friend. Now I want to have part time pets to love I’m a photographer and a design coordinator who works outside my home a few weeks a year and spends most time home editing photos, or playing with my two grandsons. I have a nice fenced in yard and a beautiful park across the street. I live in a quiet neighborhood with nice streets for walks. There is also a dog park close by.
“As usual, Remy was VERY excited to see Aashree and was perfectly fine when I left him for the afternoon. As long as she’s available, I’ll continue to use her!”
About: In the span of my life, I had 4 dogs and currently I am taking care of 1. I also have taken care of family and friends' dog by bathing, feeding and walking them. I'm currently a full-time student at Mercy university meaning I could schedule walks or pet-sitting around my classes and study sessions. It can also be a relaxing break that helps me recharge while getting some fresh air. Plus, pet care can be flexible, allowing me to pick times that fit best with my weekly schedule. When caring for pets as a dog walker, I prioritize preparation and safety, ensuring pets have everything needed for a comfortable walk. I monitor their behavior closely, adjust pace based on energy levels, and offer personalized updates post-walk. I’m flexible with scheduling, accommodating my school responsibilities and my clients’ needs.
“Jaixa was great - super responsive & sent lovely photos of my babes while she was watching them. Came & saw the place before the booking officially started to pick up keys & ended up bringing in packages & mail for me while I was away. Will definitely book with her again in future!”
About: I have fostered a 4 month old poodle for 2 months. I’d say I personally have more experience babysitting than pet sitting but that being said, I have a huge heart for nurturing and caring I am currently working a part time job but my schedule is pretty flexible so I have a lot of time on my hands! My daily/weekly routine just consists of working and hanging out with friends! Unfortunately I can not host pet sitting at my home for my land owner doesn’t allow pets inside, but if I were to work at your home, I would act accordingly with respect!
About: I have 2 sweet boys named Ozo and Coconut. One has an allergy to chicken so I understand the concern and needs our babies may need a bit more in depth because of my own experience. I’ve also taken care of pets from friends and family each with their own particular routine so I can adjust quick to situations. Flexibility + Care I like to make sure my pets are taken care of and feel comfortable before i start my day. I like to go on walks and feel like having a furry pet can make it better for both of us. They get their cardio and I do too :) I work part time on certain days so it gives me time to stop in during the day or stay overnight. I have a car which makes it easier to travel to a clients home to walk or check up on the pets I follow schedules for feeding time/medications they may need.
“Sam did a great job with my two dogs. Made the effort to come meet them while I was home. Was very reliable and kept me informed of how they did during his visits. Would definitely recommend Sam!”

Zoe went above and beyond caring for both our 90-pound adult dog and our high-energy puppy! I’ve always been the type of person who is extremely nervous about leaving my dogs in someone else’s care, to the point that I’ve never hired a dog walker or pet sitter before. However, after getting our puppy and having a prior commitment that meant we’d be away from home for an extended period, we decided to take the leap and reach out to Zoe. We couldn’t be happier that we did! Zoe didn’t just meet our expectations; she completely exceeded them. She even arrived a little early to make sure she had all the information she needed for a successful visit. Throughout the entire time, she kept us updated and maintained great communication, which gave us so much peace of mind. When we returned home, both dogs were happy, well cared for, and properly exercised. As someone who is very particular about who I trust with my dogs, I cannot recommend Zoe enough! I would absolutely rebook with her in a heartbeat, and we’ve already started discussing our future dog-walking needs with her. Thank you so much, Zoe! We’re so grateful to have found you! ❤️
There are no words for the debt of gratitude I owe to Nicholas for the way he cared for my dogs. I have two elderly dogs, 13 and 15, and I was out of the country for over a week. I never worried for a second knowing they were in his care. He cared for them as if they were his own with attentiveness, love and genuine concern for their wellbeing. While I was away, my 15 year old rescue Diamond, had a flare up with her eye that could have progressed into a catastrophic ulcer and resulted in permanent, devastating consequences. Nicholas recognized that she needed additional care, stayed with her beyond the time he was originally scheduled to, took her to the vet, got her what she needed, and made sure she was safe and cared for. I was halfway across the world and had absolute peace of mind knowing my dogs were with someone who was paying close attention and would do whatever was necessary for them. I am beyond grateful. Nicholas went above and beyond in every possible way and I cannot recommend him more highly. My dogs were more than cared for, they were loved.
Victor is great! We reached out last minute for drop in visits twice a day and Victor was more than up for the task! He checked in on Yankee twice a day, fed Yankee, changed water, and walked him all in a 30 minute visit, and twice a day! Great option if you’re going out of town but want to keep your pet’s daily routine!
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.
I am so happy I chose Tess to take care of my Fenway! I went on a trip out of country and last minute had to find someone to watch my miniature dachshund. For the past four years, I have only had family or close friends watch him, based on his behavioral issues. He has fear reactivity to strangers, children, and other dogs. It’s hard to find someone who is willing to take the time to learn his quirks and get on his good side, while keeping him safe. Tess did just that and more, which I am so grateful for! Tess gave me in depth updates on how their time together went and took the cutest photos of my fenway! I couldn’t recommend her more and will be booking with her again 1000%!!!!
Helen was an amazing dog sitter! She watched our Siberian Husky, Esko, for five days and took such great care of her. She came beforehand to meet Esko, communicated with us throughout our trip, and sent pictures every day. We felt completely comfortable knowing Esko was in great hands. We will definitely use Helen again and highly recommend her!
Sam is the best! My two boys are getting to be in their senior years and are very different. Jimmy is on the bigger side around 40 pounds and rambunctious and Dwight is on the smaller side around 25 pounds and pretty lazy. Sam interacted and loved both boys and was so lovely and attentive on his visits to feed them while we were away on vacation. We are so glad to have found Sam 😌

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Englewood Cliffs 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 .

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 .
