I would not hesitate to leave Zeke with her again. If your looking for a great sitter for your fur baby definitely contact Tiffanny.”
“Marisol was great with Cooper. She was very kind, communicative, and made the whole drop-off and pick-up process easy. She kept us updated throughout the stay with messages and photos, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Cooper looked comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for the entire time. I really appreciated how attentive and friendly she was. I would definitely book with her again.”

About: For over 10 years, I have taken care of the dogs of my friends and family. My experiences include senior dogs with mobility concerns and young hyper-active pups. Through strong attention to detail, I have nurtured and supported the well-being of many dogs and other pets alike. My experience taking care of different animals (e.g cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs) has made me a well-rounded pet sitter. I currently teach part-time at a local community college. Most of my workload can be performed at home. This gives me plenty of time to cater to the needs of your precious doggo. In my home, I have a fenced yard and plenty of space. This assures that dogs can be secured with room to stretch out. I, also, have many home security cameras as an added protection measure. My surrounding neighborhood is safe and very walkable which provides the perfect atmosphere for long walks.
About: Love being with animals, will treat your pets like they are my children. :) I like burning energy, and lazy days, and do well with all types if they are reserved or outgoing. I have no other major time commitments so I am mostly available full time. One two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven twelve 1st priority is your pet is happy, healthy and safe. I have a big backyard that is available part time so let me know if/when that’s something you are interested in. I can also always take your baby outdoors for most of the day too.
About: Hello friends! Spending time with animals has always been one of the passions of my life. I am a 37 year old guy from Spain, sporty and energetic. I have had dogs since I was a teenager, specifically a German shepherd and later a Labrador, as well as a parrot yaco that is still with my family in my country. Currently I have a golden retriever of 4 months old. He is very friendly, affectionate and playful, so your pet will not feel lonely and will have a companion to play with at all times. I would be happy to do a meet and greet if you desire. I am a very responsible person and aware of the value of taking care of your pet,because when you leave your pet in the hands of another person you may feel a bit anxious. I can assure you I will care for your fur baby as I do my own, because quite honestly they are family. I have always trained my pets through positive reinforcement in order to forge a strong and affectionate bond with them. I currently work from home, so I have total availability to spend all my time with them. I can meet at any time and you can visit my home. I have a very large fenced yard where your pet can roam. I live with my wife, an elementary school teacher,who helps me a lot. Our house is very spacious and puppy proof. I don't have a problem with them on the furniture, I'm happy to see then comfortable and relaxed. I have everything here such as extra bowls for food and water, toys, chew toys, chew ropes,leashes. Your fur baby will be in a pet paradise. I am very flexible and accommodating.
“Arely was sensational! She stayed on top of everything with clear and constant communication throughout the entire stay. I felt my girls were safe, happy, and very well cared for with her. I received pictures of dinner time, Ginger playing nonstop, relaxing on the sofa and bed with friends, and having an amazing play day. It truly looked like they had the best time. I highly recommend her services. She has a beautiful, clean, and open space for them to play, and her furry babies are absolutely amazing as well. 10/10 — thank you so much!”
“Estella is so sweet and took care of my dogs so well! They love her and get excited to see her and play with her own dogs in the backyard. She sends lots of cute photos and videos and updates me on what they do during the day. I would definitely recommend her and will come back if I need dog sitting in the future! She also has a background in fostering dogs, so I feel confident she knows how to handle a lot of different breeds, ages, and needs, giving them all the love and attention they need to feel like it's another home.”
About: I’ve cared for animals, my entire life and understand that every pet has their own personality routine and needs. I treat them like part of my own family. Caring for animals has always been a part of my routine. I can have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide walks, feeding playtime, bathroom breaks, and companionship. When caring for pets, I follow their established routines as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I respect both the pets routine and the home itself. I provide a safe calm environment monitor pets closely and keep owners updated with messages and photos so that they can feel confident their pets are in good hands.
“I recently had the pleasure of entrusting my beloved Pup Rocky to the care of Adrian and Jovan, two extraordinary Pup sitters. Their professionalism, warmth, and genuine love for animals was evident from the moment we met. My Rocky was not only well taken care of but also showered with affection, playtime, and attention. It was clear that Adrian and Jovan went above and beyond to ensure Rocky’s happiness and comfort. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking outstanding and safe care for their furry companions.”
“This is the second time we have used Brenda and we will not hesitate to use her in the future. Harriet is a rescue and she is slow to relax in new and unfamiliar settings. However, after each visit Harriet is quick to recover. We would recommend Brenda to everyone.”
About: Friends and pet owners have relied on me to come over (while they were on vacation or at events) and take care of their pets by feeding them a certain amount and following that schedule, keeping a close eye on them when they go outside, making sure they aren’t distributing at other animal in the house (cats) or getting into things they shouldn’t be. I’ve had 3 dogs and I have helped give one of them (sebby) medicine for their seizures for 3 years (pills, shots, syringe) and making sure my australian shepherd didn’t eat my other dog’s food as he was allergic to chicken. I also helped give baths to them and make sure their sensitive fur had the right and best shampoo. I am went along with them to dog parks and take them on long works all around the neighborhood. I have cared for senior dogs for weeks while owner was on vacation, I’ll multitasked with housesitting one dog and dedicating walking a younger dog twice a day for a month and making sure both get all of the attention and energy needed. I have a strong attention to detail for care directions so I will make sure that they are not only being watched with the best key but I am also putting 100% into making sure they are safe and getting all of the love so you will rest with knowing they are in safe and loving hands. I have a very open availability. I am currently home from college for the summer, so I am able to work all hours of the day on the weekends and weekdays. I can do overnight stays or visits on the weekends while also doing dog walks in the week and earlier on the weekends. I am able to put all of my energy into making this part of my daily routine. I can easily provide love and comfort to them by softly putting them if they are stressed, distracting them by bringing out their favorite toy and letting them play fetch. I will ease into approaching them if they are skittish by putting my hand out and letting them approach me first so they have all of the control. I had a big backyard and 2 dogs earlier in my life, so I’m used to making sure i’m keeping an eye on them and not letting them go out of my sight if they are running around. I am also able to calmingly point them in a different direction during walks if a big dog approaches they won’t get barked out and intimidated. Get down on their level and talk to them calming and give them space if they are too scared at first. Always let them come to you first

Harriet is a rescue with time on the street and unknown issues we are still learning how to deal with. She gets frightened easily when meeting new people and dogs, and being in new places. She will display a lot of anxiety in those new situations. Today was the first time she met Analisa and her family. And we cannot say enough positive things about how Harriet cared for- she seemed to fit right in and did not display her usual behavior in those situations. Analisa sent us pictures and videos throughout the day with updates. . Harriet fit right in with the family and the other dogs in the house When we went to pick Harriet up and took her home she was relaxed and showed no stress or distress. We have no qualms about having Analisa care for Harriet in the future. We are very very pleased and satisfied.
Ciara is the perfect sitter. She kept me updated with photos and videos. She was on time, polite, and overall such a sweet person. You can definitely tell that she’s had years of experience with dogs. I recommend her 100% to anyone that wants their fur babies to be in the best care 💕

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 Montclair 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 CA 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 5,968 sitters in Montclair, 88% 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.
