About: Hi! My name is Qing. You can also call me Anna. My family and I have taken care of dogs and cats for more than 20 years. Over the years we have had 2 dogs and 2 cats. We currently have a dog who is very calm and friendly. Her name is Noodle. She is a 35lb rescue Sato dog from Puerto Rico. We will do a brief meet and greet before booking to see how your dog goes along with Noodle. For boarding I'm not accepting new customers right now. If you would like to book boarding we could do a daycare first. If everything goes well we could go ahead and book boarding. Also for everyone's safety and health, I kindly ask that all guest dogs please be neutered or spayed, update on all vaccines and physical exams, and on flea/tick prevention. I could also send Noodle's records to you upon request. I send a lot of pictures especially on the first day your dog is with me, so you know how they are adjusting. Please feel free to let me know if you want less or more pictures. (And please just enjoy the pictures and don't feel obligated to respond 😄) I stay home all day. My husband and our two high school human kids are all animal lovers and experienced caregivers. So occasionally if I need to step out for some errands they can stay with the dogs. Our dog Noodle is 7 years old, very calm and friendly. Your dog will have a lot of love and fun here. Let me know your dog's feeding and walking schedule and I will try to stick to that as much as I can. Your dog's safety, health and comfort is my first priority. We have a deck which our dog Noodle loves to hang out on. We also have a backyard. Our neighborhood is quiet and dog friendly. At home dogs are allowed on furniture and in bedroom. No human food. If you have specific rules I am more than happy to help you reinforce them during your dog's stay. I only take one client at a time. Very occasionally day care and boarding guests might overlap. If you don't want your dog to overlap with another guest dog please let me know and I will be more than happy to accommodate that.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have always had a deep love and connection with them. While I don’t currently own a dog, I regularly care for my cousin’s dog here in New Jersey — walking, feeding, and keeping him company. I’m attentive, responsible, and genuinely passionate about animals. Your furry friend will feel right at home with me! I currently work as a secretary from 12pm to 5pm on weekdays, so I’m available for dog walking and drop-in visits in the mornings before noon and after 5pm on weekdays. I have more flexibility on weekends and can accommodate house sitting when needed! Your pet’s safety is my top priority. Since I offer walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully. I’m punctual, communicative, and will send regular photo updates throughout every visit so you always know your pup is happy and safe!

I provide personalized care for pets of all ages, including energetic puppies and senior pets needing extra support. My time is mostly open but I am available on weekdays during the morning and afternoon. Weekends saturday and Sunday can be free and evening if needed. Our apartment has a private fenced dog park that we are able to enter. I am also able to follow each pet's normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure.

About: Hi! I'm a college student working toward vet school, so caring for animals isn't just a job for me, it’s what I genuinely love doing. I've had my own cat for 5 years, so I know what it's like to be a pet parent. I've also spent plenty of time watching other people’s dogs and cats, from very high energy puppies to older dogs who just want a quiet environment. I'm comfortable with all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. If something’s wrong I will reach out immediately. Since I'm on summer break, I have a pretty open schedule, but I do like to be upfront about my specific availability. I'm available Monday through Friday all day. On Saturdays, I'm available after 4:00 PM. I can also do evening visits, but I wrap things up by 10:00 PM. My schedule is pretty open until I start class the 28th of August. I will have class on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 11am to 1:45pm and Fridays from 10am to 1:45pm. I know routines are really important to pets, so I'll work around whatever schedule your pet is used to, like midday walks, afternoon play sessions, or evening check-ins before bed. Consistency is very important! I only provide care in your home because I believe that pets are more comfortable in their own environment, with their own things and smells. I'm really careful with doors or any gates and will always make sure to double check every exit to make sure your pet stays safely inside. I will treat your home the way I'd want mine treated, I will clean up after myself, wash any bowls I use, and leave things tidy. I'll also send any updates/photos at every visit so you can see how things are going. I will also save your vet's contact info, just in case of any emergency. I always like to be prepared for anything.

“Phil was awesome right from the start meeting him. Being a dog trainer myself I am very picky and particular with who I choose to watch my dogs. He did exactly what I asked and needed him to do and more and couldn't have been happier with the results and my dogs seemed very comfortable with him as he did with them. He gives detailed descriptions of each visit and leaves you feeling at ease when under his handling and care. Highly recommend he will be my guy going forward. Thank you Phil!”

My priority is aways to ensure they feel safe, happy and well cared for while their owner is away. I have a very flexible schedule, allowing me to provide reliable and consistent care whenever you need it.

I have a 2 year old cat that I recently adopted and was nervous as this was the first time I would ever be away from my kitty but Brionna’s calm and kind demeanor quickly put me at ease! She was so communicative leading up to the visit and throughout. Her daily photos and remarks let me know that Tortellini was safe, cared for and comfortable! Highly recommend and I’ll definitely be asking her to take care of Tortellini again :)”

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes through my own pets and by helping friends, family, and neighbors. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to make each one feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s going on walks, feeding, playtime, administering basic medications, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I also send photo updates after every visit because I know how reassuring it is for pet parents to see their furry family member happy and well cared for. From energetic puppies to shy or senior dogs, I’m patient, attentive, and committed to following each owner’s instructions to ensure their pet receives the highest quality care. Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule, allowing me to dedicate quality time and attention to every visit. I do my best to be flexible and accommodate each pet owner’s needs whenever possible. Whether your dog needs a walk, drop-in visit, or extra playtime, I’m committed to being dependable, punctual, and making sure your pet gets the care and attention they deserve while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and routines to help pets feel secure and maintain consistency. I pay close attention during walks, use secure leashes and harnesses, and always keep a clean, calm environment. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, so I strive to provide dependable care, clear communication, and regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I’ve had the joy of being around dogs for as long as I can remember, growing up with both small and large breeds since I was a little girl. Caring for them is a lifelong passion for me. I love not only spending time with dogs but also training them, learning about their unique personalities, and making sure they feel happy, healthy, and understood. My goal as a sitter is to give each dog the same level of love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is thriving while you’re away. As a freelance artist, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to tailor my day around the needs of the pets I care for. My work in the arts gives me the freedom to be present for regular walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. Because I can easily adjust my routine, I’m able to give each pet consistent attention and love. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my own home or in a client’s home, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I make sure pets are in a secure environment that they are free from hazards, with access to fresh water, comfortable resting areas, and plenty of safe play space. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, from feeding routines to exercise schedules, and keep a watchful eye on the pet’s behavior and well-being. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and ensure it’s kept tidy and secure. My goal is to provide both the pet and their owner with peace of mind, knowing they’re in a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment.

“⸻ Let me just say—after my first two dog sitters, I almost gave up on this app 🙂. But I’m so glad I found Victor. He is incredibly kind and truly cares. My dog absolutely loves him—he wags his tail and gets just as excited to see Victor as he does to see me, which says everything. Victor is also very reliable. He doesn’t just stick to the exact booked time or show up late like others. He often arrives a few minutes early and sometimes stays a little longer, which I really appreciate. It shows how genuine and dedicated he is. I also have a camera at home, since my dog can’t tell me about his day—and it’s clear that Victor treats him with care and attention. That gives me a lot of peace of mind. He will definitely be my to-go dog sitter moving forward!”

She was very prompt for our meeting to introduce her to my dogs and get the housekey. My dogs enjoyed meeting her. She sent pics and video, and even my very shy rescue pup felt comfortable enough to come out of hiding for her.”

Sparky is our first fur baby, and for years we relied on a trusted neighbor whenever we were away. When our neighbor recently moved, we were honestly stressed about the thought of finding someone we can trust. After interviewing several candidates across different platforms, we chose Alexa. Not only did she have great experience with her own cats and dogs, but Sparky took an immediate liking to her the very first time they met. Alexa absolutely delivered. She listened carefully to every detail we shared and gave Sparky wonderful care and attention. She is incredibly thoughtful and proactive, too—when Sparky coughed up a hairball on our sofa, she cleaned it right up before we even knew about it. We loved the regular photo updates while we were away, and coming home after two weeks to a happy, healthy Sparky greeting us with a resounding meow meant the world. Thank you, Alexa! We will definitely be reaching out again for future trip.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Englewood Cliffs on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 27,553 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Englewood Cliffs. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Englewood Cliffs 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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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 personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Englewood Cliffs. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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.

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.
