“Excellent! She did a really good job, update me everyday by sending pictures to me! She is so nice, pet lover she take good care of my dog. I will contact her next time if I need to watch my pup! Definitely trust her with my pup and my pup is happy when I pick him up!”
“Alarie and her family were absolutely wonderful with our dog. From the moment we met them, we felt completely at ease leaving him in their care. They created such a warm, loving environment for him, and it was clear throughout his stay that he was well cared for. Alarie was highly responsive and shared frequent updates and beautiful photos throughout his stay, which we really appreciated. We’re so grateful to Alarie and her family for treating our pup like one of their own. We would absolutely recommend them and would be very happy to have our pup stay with them again!”
“Cathy was great to Chauncey during his vacation at her home. Chauncey played fetch with Cathy and her daughter, which is his all time favorite activity! He was in heaven. Chauncey has tummy issues, so naturally I was worried that he would get sick, but Cathy kept his food separate and made sure he stuck to his diet. Chauncey came home exhausted from all of the fun with the new friends he made. I am very protective of my fur baby, so I am selective when choosing a sitter. I would recommend Cathy if you are looking for the best.”
“Another successful vacay in the books largely due to me not worrying a single bit about my family’s best friend, Sunday. Ken and Irene are the absolute best people. They love my dog like their own and keep consistent communication so I always know what a great time he’s having. Thank you so much!!”
“It was a pleasure working with Matthew! He is an excellent communicator and was very flexible with our schedule. He took wonderful care of Summer, providing regular photo updates and real-time feedback that gave me complete peace of mind. I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”
“Henry and Kyungwon did an excellent job watching Coco. They made sure her medicine was given on time and sent regular updates. Coco was calm and content when we returned. We plan to use Henry and Kyungwon again.”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for both dogs and cats my entire life and genuinely enjoy building a connection with each pet I meet. I’m responsible, attentive, and patient, and I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, meals, companionship, or simply some extra love while you’re away, I’ll make their comfort and well-being a priority. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, respect your pet’s routine, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident knowing they’re in caring hands. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, happy, and right at home. Pet care is a natural fit for my daily routine, and I’m available full-time to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. With a flexible schedule, I’m able to dedicate plenty of time to walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and keeping your pet comfortable in their normal routine. I understand how important consistency and reliable care are, especially when you’re away. I’m happy to work around your pet’s individual schedule and provide plenty of love, attention, and supervision throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and well-being are always my top priorities. Having cared for dogs and cats my entire life, I understand how important it is to create an environment where pets feel comfortable, secure, and cared for. I have a secure, fenced-in yard where dogs can safely enjoy some fresh air and playtime. I also have a small Havanese who loves having a furry friend around and can provide friendly companionship for dogs who enjoy being around other pets.
“Donna was amazing with my dog Taz! She was able to watch Taz for a few days on very short notice. Donna was so accommodating and loving to Taz. 100% recommend Donna and family Your pet will be in great and loving hands.”
“We had our dog stay with them for boarding, and we couldn’t have been happier! They were incredibly kind, took great care of our dog, and frequently sent us photos and videos so we could see how she was doing. We highly recommend them!”
“Kelly was wonderful! This was our first time with her as a sitter and of course I was nervous. But Kelly was amazing and reassuring and sent me pictures throughout my time away. My babies came back home happy and healthy. I 100% recommend Kelly as a sitter and trust her.”
“I’ve used Liz multiple times for my golden retriever and will continue using her for pet sitting. My dog always enjoys staying there. Liz is very accommodating and always sends pictures/updates each day.”
“I will never let anyone else watch my Stormy Girl as long as Lieb & his wife are around. The care they have given my dog along with all the updates made me feel comfortable & now she practically has a second home 😂 Lieb was also super accommodating for me as well in regards to unexpectedly extending our stay multiple times last minute. We have an American Bully and they were knowledgeable about big dogs which was very important to us especially with a bully breed. They are amazing and if you want to relax while your dog is in someone’s care Lieb is who you should go with!”
“Kate and Juan are fantastic petsitters. They treat my dog, Hodoo better than me, and they walk my dog more than me. I felt really at ease as I received photos every day, every time. I was even worried that my dog wouldn't want to come back home. Thank you very much, Kate & Juan. Now, because of Kate and Juan, I think I can go on a business trip or a vacation with confidence.”

Lucy sent pictures and videos throughout the duration of his stay which made me feel at ease that he was having a good time! I will be using Lucy from now on when I need a dog sitter or go out of town. She was absolutely wonderful! Thank you for taking good care of our fur baby!”
“Nala was very well taken care of, receiving so much love and attention during her stay. They provided detailed updates and lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. They took her on plenty of walks, and their kids were so kind and sweet to Nala. I felt completely comfortable leaving her in their care and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a loving, reliable, and attentive sitter. We would happily book with them again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Montvale
Eve and Tony went above and beyond when caring for my dog for 10 days while I traveled internationally. From solo-walks and ball play, to specialized feeding and sleeping arrangements, they took extra time and effort to care for my dog the way I do at home. I could tell immediately from his body language in the photos/videos they provided daily that he was having a fantastic time, doing all of his favorite things and more. They gifted me peace of mind while I made memories abroad, and for that I am eternally grateful. Eve and Tony are wonderful dog-people, and they are also professional and reliable service providers. All communications were swift and effective, and they were flexible in scheduling, too. They have a lovely home and yard in a beautiful neighborhood. I would recommend their services to anyone and hope to use them again. Thank you so much, Eve, Tony, Dallas, and Bonesy!!!
Irene and Ken were real lifesavers! We had a family emergency and needed their help right away. They were flexible, accommodating, and caring. They took great care of Troy, communicated with us and sent pictures, and were so nice! This is the second time that we utilized their services. It won't be the last. Superb sitters and great people!
Jessica did an amazing job watching Betsy. I have an elderly dog who is very skittish but she relaxed and seemed very happy with Jessica. She took her for walks and sat with her. She gave her medication and even tried to clean her ear. Our family felt very happy and secure knowing that Betsy was in such good hands. I would highly recommend Jessica. She has such positive energy and really loves dogs.
I booked Hope to board Walter at her home overnight when I had a wedding to attend! We did a meet and greet before the overnight visit and Hope showed me where Walter would sleep and spend the day! It was reassuring to know she had a gate to keep Walter and his puppy antics contained. During the actual stay she sent many cute pictures of Walter enjoying his stay. She also cleaned his eyes for me and gave me some grooming tips for him! He came home looking even better than when I dropped him off!! I would definitely book with her again! :)
Robyn was absolutely wonderful ! She’s very caring and accommodating. This was my first time leaving my dog with other than family and she made Me feel so safe leaving my dog. I’m enjoyed my weekend with no worries I will definitely hire her again and highly recommend her!!
Meredith did a great job taking care of my senior dog. She has senior dogs herself so she was very understanding. She also gave me good feedback. She communicates very well and responds quickly. She has a nice fenced in yard. My dog got along well with Meredith and her dogs. I think she had such a good time that she didn't want to come home! Thanks Meredith!

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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Montvale can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Montvale home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Montvale.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Montvale. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
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.
You and your Montvale sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
