“Aishan & Bhumi accomodated my same day request to watch my dog while I had to run a few errands. I really appreciate their timely communication and taking such good care of Fidel. I would trust them to watch him again.”
“Andrew is top rated for a reason! Totally worth the cost. He’s got a great space perfect for a dog to free roam and family all committed to the care of your little one. Professional, accommodating, attentive, and great with updates / communication. New to the area and was nervous leaving my little one with a new care giver for an extended period for work travel. Andrew gave me tons of peace of mind. Definitely recommend!”
“I am extremely satisfied with the service I received. Luna was taken care of, very well, and the communication (written/visually) was outstanding! I am very pleased with the attention, and we will be back soon! Thanks very much! We are both very happy Rovers.”
“Jeanette was a great sitter for Mr Pickles! Great communication throughout while she cared for our pet, and very friendly and easy going. Her golden doodle was also great with our furry baby, she kept us up to date throughout the day with pictures and video, totally recommended :)”
“Thanks for taking great care of my Jersey boy! I appreciate you taking him out for a walk on a rainy day. He loved the attention and hopefully made new friend. Will book again soon!”
“Piper had a great first daycare visit and we will definitely be going back! She was given ample alone time to feel comfortable in her new surroundings and she looks very happy in the pictures”
About: Pet care is my world, and I’ve spent years getting to know dogs and cats of all kinds. From bouncy puppies 🐶 learning their manners to wise seniors 🐕🦺 who just need a gentle stroll and some fresh water, I’m here to make sure their routine stays perfect while you're away. 🛡️ My "Safety First" Approach: I’m not just there for a walk; I’m there to be your pet’s guardian. I’m the sitter who: Double-checks that harnesses are secure and doors are locked. 🔒 Scans the path ahead on walks to avoid reactive dogs or hazards. ⚠️ Ensures water bowls are topped off and paws are clean when we get back. 🐾 ✨ Real Care for Real Pets: I specialize in Drop-Ins and Walks where your pet's well-being is the priority. Whether it’s a high-energy power walk or a quiet backyard bathroom break for a senior, I adapt to what your pet needs that day. I’m especially patient with rescues or shy pups who need a little extra time to feel safe. 💜 📸 Simple, Honest Updates: I like to keep my focus on your pet rather than my phone screen, but I’ll always send you the essentials! You can expect: A quick "Pupdate" to let you know they pottied and played. A cute photo (or two!) of our visit. 🤳 Peace of mind knowing your home is secure and your pet is loved. My promise is simple: To treat your pets like my own family, keep them safe, and bring a bit of extra joy to their day every time I visit. ✨ ⏰ Dedicated Full-Time Professional Care Because pet care is my full-time career, your pets aren't a "side gig" squeezed between other shifts. They are my entire schedule! 🐾 🗓️ Flexibility That Fits Your Life: I’ve designed my day to be there when you can’t be. Whether your boss called a last-minute meeting or you just want your pup to have a consistent midday break, I’ve got you covered: Early Birds & Night Owls: From sunrise stretches 🌅 to evening tuck-ins 🌙, I'm on the road and ready. Midday Energy Bursts: Perfect for puppies or high-energy dogs who need to burn off steam while you’re at work. ⚡ Consistent & Dependable: Because this is my job, you don’t have to worry about me "calling out" for an office conflict. I am there, rain or shine. ☔️☀️ 🏠 Reliability You Can Trust: Being a full-time sitter means I take my reputation seriously. I keep my route tight so I can be on time and fully present. When I’m at your house, my phone stays in my pocket (except for that cute photo!) so your pet gets 100% of my attention. 🛡️✨ 🛡️ Your Home & Pet: Safe, Secure, & Respected I don’t just "watch" pets, I protect them. Whether I’m entering your home for a drop-in or heading out for a walk, I operate with a safety-first checklist to ensure total peace of mind for you. 🏠✨ 🚧 Out on the Walk: The "Double-Check" Rule: I always verify harness/collar tightness before we step outside. 🐕🦺 Awareness Training: I’m constantly scanning the environment for other dogs, reactive triggers, or unsafe debris on the sidewalk. ⚠️ Temperature Checks: In summer or winter, I check pavement heat or ice levels to keep those paws protected. 🐾🌡️ 🔒 Inside Your Home: Security Expert: I am hyper-diligent about locking doors, arming alarms, and ensuring gates are clicked shut. Your home’s security is as important as your pet's. 🔑 Environment Scan: I check for hazards, empty water bowls, or anything your pet shouldn't be chewing on before I leave. 🚫🦴 The Little Things: I make sure the "routine" is followed, whether that’s a specific treat spot, a white noise machine, or a favorite blanket. 💜 The Professional Promise: I treat your space with the highest level of respect. I’m a quiet, clean, and reliable presence. My goal is for you to walk through your door and feel like I was never there except for the fact that your pet is happy, calm, and well-cared for! 🏠💫
About: My patience with animals helps me connect with them over time. Being patient and understanding with them, while also knowing that they are very intelligent creatures, helps maintain healthy habits and disciplined dogs! Very open schedule while I am in between jobs. I love taking care of pets and love all animals. Great with routines and keeping animals disciplined. I go on long walks and having a furry companion always helps. I’ve worked in various family homes both taking care of pets and cleaning houses. I have a nice backyard and open spaces in my home.
“This was the last daycare I had with Jennifer before my sweet elderly Xander passed. Xander had come to like Jennifer and over time, started to show excitement when he saw her. So this final rating was given by the dog. Xander had many medical needs and Jennifer accepted all of them. Xander passed yesterday and I contacted her to inform her and thank her. I didn't mention this but I was feeling regret about not checking the box asking for pictures all day long. SHE STARTED SENDING ME PICTURES. I"M CRYING BIG TEARS THANK YOU.”

About: As a devoted dog enthusiast, I have accumulated over two decades of expertise in pet care and have been a dog owner for 25 years. My two English cocker spaniels hold a special place in my heart, making them my absolute world, alongside my spaniel before my current two that I had for 17 years, who passed away in 2019. Spaniels hold a special place in my heart. As a remote worker with a highly flexible schedule, I am able to be present with the puppies and dogs regardless of whether it is a weekend or a weekday. Residing in a two-story townhouse, I do not have a backyard, but I do have three balconies. Additionally, there is a park located nearby. I also have two English cocker spaniels, who are siblings, named Parker and Riley. They are friendly and calm after the initial few minutes. Parker and Riley are both six years old, and my husband and I ensure their well-being by keeping them well-groomed. We consistently monitor their eyes, perform regular teeth brushing, and ensure that their paws and nails are in optimal condition.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was in middle school, I currently have a lovely Bernese Mountain puppy that I have been caring for since last year. I’m currently a part-time student, so I will have plenty of time during the day to take care of your pet! I'm currently open to full-day walks, visits, care, and any overnight needs your pet may require! My schedule is super flexible and open to change! I live in an apartment within a 10 minute walk of Fort Greene Park, have a crate setup if needed, and have the sweetest Berner pup that can keep your dog company. I'm a very clean and detail-orientated person, I tend to clean any spaces I'm in regardless of what I'm expected to do.

Jeanette was an amazing dog sitter for my 8 month old puppy. She is very responsive, caring, and will make sure your pet has everything they need. She sends lots of great updates and is very flexible and accommodating to your pet's needs. My puppy had a very fun and relaxing time with Jeanette and Hunter!

Selim took excellent care of our puppy, Coco. From the start, it was clear he’s attentive and responsible. He made sure Coco got regular potty and pee breaks, followed his meal schedule properly, and kept a close eye on him throughout the day. What stood out the most was the consistent communication. Selim provided regular updates, which gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing Coco was doing well and comfortable. Caring for a young puppy isn’t easy, but he handled it with patience and care. Coco came back happy and well taken care of. We’d definitely trust Selim again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for reliable daycare.
Nala gets so excited every time I drop her off, which says everything about how amazing Darrin, Debra, and Emily are. They take wonderful care of her on an ongoing basis, always treating her like part of their family. I’m so grateful for the love and consistency they give her. Highly recommend! 🐾💛

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 Kearny 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 11,509 sitters in Kearny, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.

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.
