About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats since I was a teenager. From the family dog to the neighbors that are going out of town. I would feed the cats outside that usually ended up becoming a village. I care for two amazing cats now that are well behaved (Orange cat to the best of his abilities). I have an action camera that I can bring along upon request. I also like to take pictures so if allowed I’ll return some great pictures of your pet! I am an early bird that works from home with a very flexible schedule. I also go for evening walks around the park which are usually filled with dogs. Weekends are usually free. My cats get groomed weekly and have a food schedule that adapts well to their growing diet. When we dog sit our friends 2 Australian Shepard they are full of energy and get walked 3 times a day. Same goes for the family Boxer that has a few more years on him so he goes for a mild walk around the park.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years, starting with my own dog during my teen years and continuing with my current dog, Jack — a 9‑year‑old German Shepherd/Chow Chow mix. I trained Jack through his puppy stage and still give him daily walks, playtime, and lots of love. Over the years, I’ve also become the go‑to dog caretaker for friends and family. Whether they’re heading out of town or just need someone to stop by for a playdate, I’m always happy to help. I treat every dog with the same patience, attention, and affection I give my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine because I’m currently in between jobs and have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for dogs. I’m typically available throughout the week during the day for walks, check‑ins, or just spending quality time with your pup. I love filling my days with dog care, so I’m flexible and happy to work around your schedule whenever possible. For drop‑in visits, I focus on making your dog feel comfortable and cared for in their own space. I follow your feeding and routine instructions closely, refresh water, give plenty of attention, and make sure they get the playtime or quiet time they prefer. I always take a gentle, reassuring approach so your pup feels safe while you’re away. For dog‑walking services, I make each walk enjoyable and stress‑free. I tailor the pace and route to your dog’s energy level and comfort, keep walks positive and safe, and make sure they get the exercise and stimulation they need. After each walk, I ensure they’re settled and content before I leave. My goal with both services is to provide warm, reliable care that keeps your dog happy and gives you peace of mind throughout the day.

About: ***I recently lost my soul dog, Ace ,of 17 years, so currently there are no other animals in my home. Please note: I go by Liora as a nickname in my day to day, but Emma is my legal name, hence why you’ll see both names in the reviews. I have always been an avid animal lover, but dogs are my favorite! In middle school I would go around door to door asking my neighbors that had dogs if I could walk them, in high school and college I would volunteer at animals shelters every weekend. I recently lost my soul dog of 17 years, Ace. I had him since he was 8 weeks old, and trained him with all the commands as well as potty training. I miss him dearly, but that being said - I can handle taking care of puppies, adults, and senior dogs alike, and am comfortable administering medication when needed. I work from home, so your pet will always have a buddy throughout the day and human interaction, and will rarely be alone. Evening and weekends will be reserved for parks and lots of play time! I have a small back yard space and a few great parks nearby just a few minutes away from my apartment. I can also crate your dog if needed / if they prefer. I also have cameras set up at home should I need to step out, they will always be monitored.

About: Hi! I’m Jessica, and I’ve spent the last 18 years working hands-on in the pet industry. My career began in the PetSmart Pet Hotel, and since then I’ve managed multiple boarding facilities, worked as an animal control officer, mentored as a dog trainer, and now specialize in pet nutrition. Because of my background, I’m very comfortable with all personalities—especially pups who struggle in busy kennel environments. Over the years, I’ve opened my home to dogs with anxiety, behavioral quirks, medical needs, or those who just need a calmer, more personalized environment. I’ve cared for everything from dogs and cats to small animals and exotics, and I treat every pet like one of my own. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine will always be my top priorities. If you're looking for a sitter who is experienced, patient, and genuinely passionate about animals, I’m here to help! I currently have the option to work from or bring your furry baby to my pet friendly safe office space. I am a pet nutritionist! I care for pets by treating them as they are one of my own! I will work with you to understand what your individual pet needs to feel safe and comfortable while they stay with me.

About: Growing up. I had five dogs. Four of them lived up to 14 and 15 years of age. One of them still lives with my sister and it’s currently nine years old. All my life I’ve had experience with dogs and even cared for them up until their senior stage. Even though my dogs are no longer with me, my love for pets still lives on. I recently just finished College, and work less days in my job. So I’m free a lot of the time now, which will help me provide an organized routine for pets. Whether that’s is feeding them, walking them, and spending time with them. When I had my dogs, I would take them outside to my backyard and stay with them until they were finished, and then they were able to walk up the stairs and go back inside. When caring for a pet in your home, I will be sure to do the same and take precautionary measures that are needed to ensure that your fur baby is safe. As well as follow any rules instructed.

About: I have lifelong experience as a pet owner/lover as well as a decade of walking and caretaking experience. I specifically have developed excellent walking etiquette and liken myself to a walk-trainer for younger dogs 🐾 I am self employed which gives me more than ample time to give my utmost attention to your babies. I also take a two (or more) mile walk everyday already so it's always a great joy to have companions/break it up throughout the day! I live in a duplex with access to the fenced in front yard in an extremely safe neighborhood. There is also a crate, pee pads, treats, beds, love abundant in the home.

We had such a wonderful experience with Christina! 🥰 She was so sweet, reliable, and attentive with our puppy Chloe, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. Chloe absolutely loved spending time with her, and Christina was always great about keeping us updated. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. We’re so grateful we found her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their fur baby! 🐶💕

We are so grateful for Geoff! He recently helped us out on very short notice when we needed someone to care for our dog, Cayenne, and our two cats so that our whole family could travel for a college visit with our son. Geoff was incredibly accommodating, reliable, and took great care of all three of them, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Geoff has been wonderful with Cayenne and is someone we know we can depend on. It means a lot to have someone we trust caring for our pets, especially when plans come together unexpectedly. We highly recommend Geoff and truly appreciate everything he does for our furry family members!

Pete is amazing. I was gone for a business trip last week and Pete came over every morning to watch Oscar and see him off to daycare every day. Oscar was thrilled, as was Sandy, to spend so much time with his best friend. It gave me such peace of mind knowing that Pete was taking care of Oscar, and it was amazing to have one less thing to worry about. I literally cannot put a price on that!! Thank you, Pete!!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Lyndhurst

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Lyndhurst is $24 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $34 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 26,431 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Lyndhurst. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Lyndhurst 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.

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

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.

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

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.
