About: As a teacher, patience, responsibility, and clear communication are part of my everyday life, and I bring those same qualities to pet care. I have two dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I'm comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels, whether they love long walks, playtime, or just relaxing with company. I pay close attention to each pet's routine, follow care instructions carefully, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. During the summer I am working less hours I am available Monday- Friday after 3 pm and the weekends I am free all day. Caring for my own two dogs is already part of my daily routine, so looking after other pets fits in naturally. For dog walks, I make sure each walk matches your dog's energy level and routine, whether they enjoy a leisurely stroll or a more active outing. During drop-in visits I am capable of doing anything that is needed to care for your dogs needs.
About: I grew up in a neighborhood that had many dogs, and I would always go over to my neighbors’ houses to play with and take care of their fur babies. I currently have a happy 4 year old schnoodle who goes on walks every day and loves to play fetch. Account is run by Jennie! We are available for day and/or night boarding. I work from home three times a week (schedule is flexible, and my mom stays home on the weekends, so your fur baby will receive around the clock care. 😊 We can take the dog on multiple walks a day and we have a 13 pound friendly and happy Schnoodle to keep your dog entertained

“Karen was absolutely wonderful with my dogs. She not only cared for them with so much love, but also paid attention to little details I hadn’t even mentioned. It gave me such peace of mind knowing they were in her hands. Truly grateful for her care!”
About: After moving from the UK and recently adopting a little pup from 10 weeks who’s now just under a year old, I’ve had lots of experience training, caring for and playing with energetic dogs! With dogs all throughout my childhood including my springer spaniel Meg, I will always look after your pup as if it were my own, tailoring the energy to exactly what they need. I’m available to walk your dog, have a play with them in your home or mine, or just drop in and feed them! I’m able to look after your pup on my days off from work so I can give them full care and attention! My husband also works from home regularly so will have lots of presence and get plenty of walks and plays in the area around you or our place. I am happy to look after your pup however you need for your home - playing in the yard, relaxing in the living room or just out on a walk, I can always be flexible!
About: My family and I had dogs and cats our whole lives and truly treat every pet like family. I’m patient, attentive, and experienced with different temperaments, including puppies and senior pets. I provide a safe, loving environment with frequent potty breaks, playtime, and lots of affection. Pets are allowed to be themselves in my home and lay where they feel comfortable. I have 2 children who literally fall in love with every pet they see so they will provide tons of love and affection. My setting includes dog park, doggy bath room and beautiful lake for calming walks. I am the owner of my own business that I run from home. I work around my own schedule and pets actually add beneficial value to my clients. I live in a very safe gated community with dog park and fenced lake. Your pet will be with me the entire time. Just like my road dog :) I have an SUV that I easily have transported many animals in safely.
About: I’m a dog parent to 2 years old Corgi, so I know how important it is to trust someone with your pup. I have hands-on experience with crate training, leash walking, and keeping up with energetic dogs. I’m also patient and attentive with seniors or pets who need extra care. Your pet will be treated like family—because I wouldn’t settle for anything less either! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine since I work from home—and so does my husband! Our flexible schedules mean your pet will get plenty of attention, love, and timely care throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just some company, we’re around to make sure they’re happy and comfortable. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on comfort, safety, and keeping their routine consistent. At my home, dogs have plenty of space to play—including a fully fenced backyard where they can safely roam and get their energy out. Plus, they’ll have a friendly Corgi companion if they’re social! In a client’s home, I make sure to follow your pet’s routine closely, giving them the love and attention they’re used to.
About: Ever since I was little my family and I have been a dog household. I love all types of dogs. I’ve personally had a German Shepard, Yorkie, Maltipoo and a Staffy/Pitt mix! In my free time I watch my friend’s pups when they go away. I love walking dogs and just playing with them at home! Dog company is the BEST company in my opinion:) I work M-F, 7-3pm. I’m typically available in the evenings unless I have something scheduled previously. My weekends are very flexible as I don’t work. I have a pet friendly apartment in Hackensack, NJ. My neighborhood has MANY dogs who get walked daily. I also have a lovely, close knit dog park in the neighborhood as well. I have a balcony in my apartment that the pup can sit outside and hang out if they’d like. I allow dogs to sit on the couch and bed with me if they’d like as well. I have a dog bowl and treats for when my family dog or friends dogs come to visit if needed.
About: I have lived with dogs for the majority for my life. While I may not have professional experience in pet care, I have taken care of/helped with many of family’s, neighbors, and friends dogs. I am currently a full-time college student, meaning my availability may be a bit on the shorter side. I can provide walks and check-ins, but cannot provide house sitting at the moment. If you are interested and have questions on availability/scheduling, please message me. I currently live with two cats, who I am not the primary caretaker but do step-in when needed and make sure they are safe and cared for. I will treat any client’s animal as if its my own, taking time to listen to their ways of communication in order to ensure the best care.
About: Hello! I've had cats my whole life and have had my dog, Jack, since he was only a few months old. Until he crossed the rainbow bridge, I treated him like he is my child. I used to get nervous when I had to leave Jack alone with someone other than myself. So I have decided to join Rover to give fellow dog owners the opportunity to have a real pet lover care for their pets as their own, and put their minds at ease. I would be happy to drop-in and feed & play with your dog in your home or go for a walk around the town. I am very active in my daughters life and drop her off and pick her up from school and dance. Other than that I work two nights a week. I respect the home of other people and I also respect their wishes for their pets. Pets aren’t a “one size fits all” so I adjust accordingly.
About: I have over two years of professional pet care experience working for Animal Loving Care (ALC) in New York City. During my time there, I worked as a dog walker, pet sitter, and in the dog daycare department, caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. The company even invited me to return after I moved to New Jersey, which I consider one of the greatest compliments to my work. I now provide reliable, loving, and personalized pet care in New Jersey. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. My availability: • House Sitting (Client’s Home): I am available on weekends to stay with your pet throughout the day and evening. I return early the following morning to continue their routine, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, companionship, walks, meals, and playtime. • Boarding in My Home: I can welcome pets into my home any day of the week, as long as they are friendly and comfortable around young children. • Dog Walking & Drop-In Visits: I am available seven days a week for walks, feeding, potty breaks, medication (if needed), playtime, and companionship. Depending on the time of day, I can accommodate visits with or without my son, depending on the schedule and your pet’s needs. I’m always happy to arrange a meet-and-greet before the first booking so you and your pet can get to know me. I treat every animal with patience, kindness, and the same love and respect I would give my own. I am a stay-at-home mom raising my two and a half year old son. I am available full time to care for your pet, taking him/her for walks, feeding it, and playing with them. We live in an apartment, but we have parks nearby, and there is plenty of green space right downstairs. My son is a calm child, and he likes animals. He doesn't hit, bite, or scratch, neither the animals nor us.
About: I have been caring for dogs since 2020, with experience providing dog sitting, overnight care, and boarding for friends, family, neighbors, and Rover clients. I have cared for dogs of all ages, including senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I’m reliable, attentive, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away! I enjoy spending time outdoors, making plenty of time for walks, playtime, and quality time with pets. I’m happy to work around each pet’s routine and needs! I treat every pet like my own! I carefully follow their routine and any instructions from their owner while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their home. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Sabina looked in after my baby Cassius and took great care of him! It was a last minute booking and she was more than accommodating with such short notice. She was attentive to his needs and did everything we asked of her! We’ll definitely book with her again!”
About: Hi! I started helping my mom dog-sit at my house ever since I was 6. I work at a dog day care and boarding so I am around dogs quite a lot! I own two cats (one indoor, one outdoor) and they are polar opposites! :) Around 7-8am I feed the dogs breakfast, A little after I take the dogs on a nice walk and if not too tired I let them roam free and play in my back yard till dinner time. My backyard has fences around and water bowls. Sometime if really hot | bring out the sprinkler. In someone else home I find it easier to take the dogs to a local dog park/park.
About: Have raised and owned pitbulls, German Shepard, Dalmatian, experience with huskies. Great with all breeds. Walks of any duration, none too long or short. Any and all special instructions and dietary needs will be followed...trust! I currently have open availability and can take requests at any hour, any day. Am willing to do light travel. Just send a request and we'll make it happen! I take my two dogs out for no less than 90 minutes a day each. I have a fenced in back yard for little breaks when I'm in and out of the house and play with them frequently.
“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!”
“We have booked Jalisa several times and she has always been wonderful. She is great with our pack of pups (we've never left her with less than 2 and sometimes as many as 4 dogs) and reliably keeps in touch with great pictures. I recommend Jalisa highly.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Little Ferry
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!
Emily was absolutely wonderful with Brady! She was reliable, caring, and truly went above and beyond while watching him. She provided thoughtful updates and photos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Brady was happy, comfortable, and genuinely well cared for the entire time. Knowing he was treated with so much love and attention made all the difference. I highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and professional pet sitter.
I cannot recommend Maxibel enough! She has been absolutely amazing with my dog!! She is so kind, caring, and attentive. My dog genuinely gets excited to see her, which gives me so much peace of mind whenever I’m away. She is always punctual, responsible, and incredibly reliable. One thing I especially appreciate is how consistent she is with updates and photos, which always reassures me that my dog is happy and well cared for. It’s clear she truly loves what she does and treats every pet like her own. I’m so grateful we found her!
Mariah was nothing but amazing with my 2 dogs! I felt so comfortable leaving her to care for them as I was on vacation. She’s great at communicating and sends updates with cute pictures of my dogs. I would highly recommend Mariah and will be using her in the future.
Honest feedback here - I was a little hesitant in using Xavier as he was young without too many years of experience, but I was in a bind and my last two sitters flaked - I saw that he was rated as a star sitter though with great reviews, so moved forward here and I am so glad I did. His communication skills are above the charts. He is extremely responsive, communicates very well (seems to truly care about your pets and their needs) and was always great about texting updates and photos - Too boot, he was extremely accommodating as the drive was a bit far, but he knew I was in a bind and took the job without hesitation - Moreover, he was very punctual and came at the times I needed him too. I can't tell you how nice it was to come home after my trip to a home where it was very easy to see my babies were well looked after and taken care of - Lastly, he has very good energy and I felt good leaving my babies in his hands even though was a stranger -

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 Little Ferry 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.
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 Little Ferry 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

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.
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.
To find sitters in Little Ferry with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
