About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and genuinely love getting to know each dog’s individual personality, routine and needs. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of very different sizes, breeds and energy levels, from a large Boxer to a small, high-energy French Bulldog. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, basic training reinforcement and giving dogs the patience and attention they need to feel comfortable. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I’ll always treat your dog like I would my own and keep you updated along the way! I work from home most weekdays, which gives me plenty of flexibility to fit pet care into my routine. I’m available for walks, drop-ins and playtime throughout the week, and I can often accommodate different schedules with advance notice. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so their day feels familiar and comfortable while you’re away. Every pet has different needs, so I always take the time to learn their routine, personality and any boundaries before caring for them. I’ll closely follow your instructions for walks, feeding, medications, playtime and anything else that helps your pet feel safe and comfortable. I’m also mindful of things like leash safety, doors and gates, interactions with other dogs, and changes in behavior. I’m happy to send photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pet is being well cared for!
About: I have grown up with and around dogs, am an absolute dog lover, and am familiar with dogs of all ages. Working remote full time allows me to be flexible with the owners schedules and cater to their and their pets needs. I work from home/am fully remote, so I have a very flexible schedule due to this! I am available Monday - Friday throughout the day for drop ins and walks for your pups! I understand that every dog has different needs therefore ensuring I have the owners trust and the dogs trust is something that is super important to me. I would first ask that me and the owner meet prior to services to ensure everyone agrees this is a good and safe match. Exercise is something that is apart of my daily routine, I can make certain that each dog will get a walk that is catered to their needs (i.e. distance vs play time)

“Christina is the best petsitter you could truly ask for! She was so patient and loving with our timid cat while we were away. She tried all the tricks to get our cat out of hiding and her perseverance paid off! They Winnie finally emerged and they bonded! Christina goes above and beyond in her communication, rover cards and care of Winnie and home. I'm so grateful to have found such a trustworthy, warm, humorous and thorough care giver for our kitty. I cannot recommend her enough! Thank you so much, Christina!! You're the BEST!”

“Rebecca was the perfect sitter for our two fur babies. Always on time and provided pictures. I would recommend her to anyone needing an amazing pet sitter. We will definitely be booking her again!!!!!”

I highly recommend Gulhan to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter! She is wonderful with dogs, very attentive, patient, and genuinely loves animals. She makes sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I would absolutely trust her with my dog and recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and trustworthy!

Katherine is truly a hidden gem. She came highly recommended so I’m happy to pay it forward! My pets, including a picky torty cat, have grown to truly love seeing her. I have a lot of peace of mind knowing she’s with them. Book her, just not too much because I need her! 😆

Thank you, Catherine, for taking such good care of Penny and Piggy! She was available on short notice and is very responsible, communicating every step of the way and following all my (excessive) instructions! Will definitely be asking her to drop in again.

Audrey is amazing! She made me feel so comfortable and at ease, knowing my baby Maple is in such good hands. She always keeps me updated, is completely transparent, and gives Maple so much love and attention. I get all the pictures in the world, which makes me so happy! She is very reliable. Many thanks to her.

Junyi did a fantastic job taking care of our precious Penny while we were in Australia. We really appreciate the level of care that he showed her. Daily updates included videos and photos which I was very grateful for. Thank you Junyi. Will definitely book again in the future. Highly recommend to all

Emma is absolutely AMAZING!!! I would recommend her to anyone!! She is the absolute sweetest person, totally flexible, has gone above and beyond in so many ways and so many times for me, my fuzzy family member, and my family! The absolute best person all around, I seriously don't know what I would do without her and I am so thankful!!

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Hoboken is $26 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $44 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Hoboken 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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
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.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
