“Kiky was absolutely fantastic with my 5-year-old Yorkie! She is incredibly patient and caring, which is so important for a smaller dog. I really appreciated how responsive she was throughout the booking, and the photos she sent were amazing—it was so nice to see my pup looking happy and settled. It’s clear she has a genuine love for dogs and takes great care of them. I felt totally at ease leaving him in her hands and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“This is Kudo’s second time staying with Susan. He looks chilled and comfortable at the place. Susan is very responsive to my questions and sends plenty pictures, which I absolutely love to see throughout the day. These are all the reasons why I chose Susan even though her place isn’t the closest to me. I can trust that she takes good care of Kudo as I go onto my busy day.”
“Tao and his daughter did a wonderful job with our boy Logan. He kept in constant contact and answered all of our questions and even sent over pictures of our special boy throughout the day without being asked to do so. We're going to continue to have our boy stay there when needed. We feel very lucky to have met him and his daughter.”
“Imari did a great job watching our little guy. She sent great pix and took him for walks and spent quality time with him. We highly recommend Imari! Thank you very much!”
“Tiffany was absolutely amazing with my puppy, Cosmo! As a new dog owner, I was nervous about going back to work, but she completely eased my anxiety. She took such great care of Cosmo and made me feel confident he was in good hands. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again moving forward. Thank you again Tiffany!”
“Miran & Jennie treated my dog so well! I received photos as well which was helpful because I was nervous to use Rover for the first time. Their dog Bambi is also so sweet. Thank you Miran & Jennie!”
About: Hi there! I’ve been lucky enough to have dogs in my life for over 20 years, so I really know what it takes to keep them happy and healthy. Growing up with dogs taught me all the little things that make a big difference in their care—whether it’s their exercise needs or just knowing when they need a good belly rub! Right now, I’ve got a super friendly 40lb Mini Bernedoodle who’s all about having fun, so I totally get how important it is to make walks enjoyable and stress-free for your dog. I’m here to make sure your pup has a great time, gets plenty of love, and stays safe on every walk. If you’re looking for a relaxed, dog-loving walker who knows how to keep tails wagging, I’d love to help out! I work from home, part time, so I'm home most of the day and have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your dog plenty of attention. I'm ready to give them all the love and attention they need. Your dog will be in good hands, whether it's a walk, a game, or just a cozy cuddle session! When your pooch is at my place, they’ll be treated just like my dog, Luna! They’ll have full access to the furniture, get all the cuddles, and enjoy the same care and attention Luna gets. I believe pets should feel at home, so I make sure they’re comfortable and loved during their stay. If I’m taking care of your dog at your place, I’ll follow your routine and make sure they’re happy and well-looked after. I’ll give them plenty of playtime, walks, and lots of love—just like I do for Luna!
“Vivian and her husband Ronnie accommodated our last minute request and were very kind and caring. They took Jazzy on multiple walks despite approaching major rainstorm, sent a picture, and kept track of her pooping and peeing. What more could you ask?”
“Denise L was fantastic! I booked her last minute on Rover to watch my furry baby Camilla, and she was super responsive and accommodating. Camilla was happy and well cared for. Denise also gave camilla her medications and made the whole experience stress-free. I’d definitely book her again!”
“While a few hours may not provide a comprehensive experience, Samantha was very attentive, demonstrated good communicating skills and puntual My dog seemed comfortable.”
“Anupa was so amazing with Zoey. Took her on long walks and gave plenty of cuddles just what she needed. She accommodated my last minute request and communicated with me frequently. Will definitely use Anupa again for any dog sitting!”
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs (including one I had of my own), I treat every pet like family because they deserve nothing less. I’m not just a sitter; I take time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and needs to provide personalized care and comfort. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, calm presence, and genuine love for animals. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, medication support, or just companionship, I create a safe, stress-free environment that keeps both pets and owners at ease. Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily and weekly routine. I structure my schedule around the pets I care for, ensuring they receive consistent attention, exercise, and companionship. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday feedings, or evening playtime, I plan my day to match their needs and routines. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or in a client’s, I always prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency. In my home, I create a calm, pet-friendly space where animals feel welcome and secure, keeping their routines as familiar as possible. When staying in a client’s home, I treat their space with the utmost respect while following all care instructions closely from feeding and walks to playtime and cuddles. I maintain open communication throughout each stay, so pet parents feel confident and at ease while they’re away.
About: Growing up I babysat my neighbors dogs all the time and after moving to NYC I became a dog walker! Now I prefer to stay with them at home where your pups will get lots of care and cuddles and be at ease with their new bestie! Me! I work from home currently! I’m an actor and after covid acting is a lot of self tapes being sent from home! Your pup will be a great fun fit into my routine. I live right by riverside and take trips there constantly, even with the cold weather it feels so good to go outside and get some fresh air. Aside from that we have a calm home that will be sure to leave any dog with a nervous mind at ease. We can play, have treats and stimulation or relax all day together. I know how stressful it is for a dog to be away from their parents so it’s best to do activities that make them feel better.
“Laura has been amazing! Her communication was great and she took great care of our pup Nenya. We could tell that Nenya loves her when we picked her up. She had a super calm and nice approach with her which is great because she is a little bit more on the shy and anxious side. Will definitely book Laura again :)”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Lee
Laura took care of our dog Ficelle for two days, and it was a truly wonderful experience. We are a French couple traveling around the world, and we were visiting New York when we needed someone to look after our Border Collie. From the very beginning, everything went perfectly with Laura. Ficelle was happy, well cared for, and we felt completely at ease. It was a real pleasure to have Laura as our pet sitter. We highly recommend her to anyone, especially fellow travelers like us who are looking for someone trustworthy and kind. Thank you again, Laura!
Kiki took amazing care of our Pippa! She kept us updated throughout the day with multiple photos and messages about how Pippa was doing, including potty breaks, meals, and playtime. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such caring hands. Pippa clearly had the best time and came home happy and relaxed. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be booking with Kiki again. Highly recommend! 🐶❤️
Susan and her husband are AMAZING! I was extremely stressed trying to find someone to watch Mochi at the last minute but Susan responded quickly, was incredibly flexible, and worked with me every step of the way. Throughout Mochi's stay, she sends regular updates and photos, which I absolutely loved. Mochi absolutely adores them. I highly highly recommend!
Jatna was amazing and I fully trust her to watch our pup anytime. We were visiting from out of town and she kept our young puppy and ensured he was well taken care of and loved on while we went to an event. Her communication was top notch and she kept me informed during his entire stay. I trust very few people, but I am glad we chose her to take care of our puppy. Highly recommend!
Luisanna was amazing with Lola and I would recommend her to anyone. We took our Lola girl on vacation with us to New York but she could not do some of the activities… Luisanna was available at short notice with quick and easy drops off/ pick ups. She was very responsive when I texted her and communicated with us during the day on how Lola was doing. Her communication is amazing, along with her sweet relaxed energy Lola warmed right up to her ! She truly took care of my baby as her own and it was easy to tell when I brought Lola the following day, Lola ran right to her. It was so reassuring to know my dog was happy, safe and well cared for. Her location is very convenient for any New York or New Jersey plans as she is right over the bridge. She was truly a life saver and I am so greatful I found her. Anytime I visit NY I will be contacting her as I’m sure Lola would love to see her !
Alexus is an amazing fit for my dog Soukie! Soukie took to Alexus right away and she tends to be on the timid side so I was impressed to see her cuddled up on Alexus’ lap! Alexus sent many pictures and asked lots of questions about Soukies routine to make sure Soukie received the best care. I definitely recommend Alexus! She has a kind and easy going demeanor that dogs respond well to!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Fort Lee on Rover is $42.8 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Fort Lee commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.
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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 11,495 sitters in Fort Lee, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
