About: Welcome all doggies and pups! I have 12 years experience with taking care of every type of breed! As a dog owner/lover myself, our fur babies deserve the best care/ attention! And that’s me I work from home creating my own schedule part time so I have plenty of time on the side to make sure all the fur babies get the proper attention! I have twin 1 year old girls, we go on several walks a day, and a friendly fur baby whose name is Bentley as well. A lot of space to welcome another friend!
“Yunhan was a wonderful pet sitter! Yunhan was friendly, responsible, and reliable, with genuine care for our cats. All instructions were followed carefully, and detailed updates with plenty of photos provided great peace of mind while we were away. Communication was excellent, especially when addressing a concern about one cat not eating, with thoughtful updates and openness to guidance. We couldn’t have asked for better care and highly recommend Yunhan to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
About: I’ve taken care of pets since my early 20s. I began fostering dogs in my early 30s and even had some foster failures. I have always been that friend, neighbor, stranger that will stop and help and animal in need or just stop the world to say hi to a four legged love ! I have full open availability! I am a teacher and am home during the summer so I can meet most needs. I am also willing to travel to help a pup in need. I prefer to board at home and I have two small pups at home, Eli and Gidget. Eli is a 12 year old Havanese and Gidget is a 2 year old Brug. They are sweet and get along with all animals and people.
About: I'm a teacher, looking for an excuse to get outside and love on someone's pets! I love all pets, big, small, scaly or furry! I have raised and nurtured shy greyhounds, rambunctious puppies, and cats. I have two cats of my own. I have boarded and walked dogs since I was in high school. I have special experience with senior dogs as Ive cared for many with unique needs. You know your pet best, so I will follow all directions and care instructions. I am a full time educator that is off for the summer (Late June through September) with a few exceptions I can be available all day. During the school year, Im available after 3pm. I have safety procedures in place for escapees, I have two crates and other tools to keep your pet safe. It is the utmost priority.
About: I’ve taken care of several different dog breeds since the age of 8. Mostly larger breeds ranging from a golden retriever to an Alaskan Malimute. My care ranges from basic walking , bathing, and grooming, down to medication management and insulin shots. Currently I’m looking for another part time job, but at the moment I’m eager to get started working with your pets full time. When I do secure employment it will just be part time in the mornings. With the utmost respect. Our pets are like our children and I would want someone to handle mine with care, compassion, and respect and I plan to do the same for you.
“Mark has done 2 Drop-Ins for me, and been professional both times. The last time, he was able to send a vid + pics and positive news that my cat was very welcoming to him. Since she likes to snuggle, it's important to me that she has someone there who wants to engage with her in earnest. Mark is a safe and solid bet when it comes to cat care.”
“Everything was perfect. This was our first time Natalia. She followed our instructions and we got hold to happy pups and well taken care of home. Thank you for your service.”

About: I have been around animals all my life, especially dogs. Growing up we always owned a dog. I grew up in an apartment around dogs, birds, rabbits, chicks, ducks, hamsters and turtles. Over the years, my main connections were and are dogs. They are so unique in their own way. Their personalities are very special to me. Dogs can talk for those who listen. I currently work full time. I am home by 4pm. I take my dogs out for long walks or to the doggie park when I arrive. My husband is our pets caretaker during the day since he works nights. He gets to play with them in the yard, walk them and feed our fur babies. I live in a corner lot house and it is partially fenced. Our dogs play in the yard. They also take long walks three times per day. We also have a dog park five minutes from the house and they enjoy going there.
About: I’m new to professional pet sitting, but I have tons of hands-on experience caring for my family’s dogs. I’ve watched my parents’ four dogs and my sister’s dog, so I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs. I genuinely love animals and will treat your pets with the same care, patience, and attention I give my own family’s pets.. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I’m happy to make time for walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. I enjoy spending time with pets and can work their care into my daily schedule. I care for pets with patience, love, and attention. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication if needed. I also make sure their space stays clean and that they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.
“Ryan did a fantastic job of caring for our two cats while we were away from home for a week. We believe they were much happier with his drop-in visits than they were when we subjected them to our old friend as a house-sitter who wasn't really a cat-lover. Ryan did a wonderful job of keeping us updated on their behavior, providing us many photos with his status updates. Knowing that he was quite close to our own neighborhood made it all the better. We would heartily recommend him to any pet-parent as a reliable and caring sitter.”
“Christine did a wonderful job with my cats and I would heartily recommend her. She followed all instructions including giving meds to one of my kitties. She sent photos every day which showed the affection she handled them with. She is trustworthy, kind and efficient. .”
About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and have 18 years of experience caring for them. I’ve always had a natural connection with dogs, and I’ve never met a dog that didn’t warm up to me. I believe dogs are easier to understand when you take the time to learn their personality, communicate clearly, and establish boundaries built on trust and respect. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable with dogs of different sizes, breeds, and personalities. My goal is always to make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, exercised, and well cared for while they’re with me. My schedule is flexible, and I’m able to work around different walking and pet-care needs. I’m available for regular walks, drop-in visits, and boarding depending on the day and your dog’s needs. I’m reliable and will make sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. I have two friendly, well-trained dogs of my own who are comfortable around dogs and have been properly socialized with dogs and people of all ages. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment and make sure introductions are done gradually and appropriately. I always pay close attention to each dog’s individual personality, boundaries, and comfort level. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow their routines and instructions closely. My priority is making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while in my care.
About: Hi! I’m Danielle — a full-time veterinary nurse working in a busy emergency animal hospital. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do on the side — it’s what I do every day, especially in high-pressure, critical situations. Because I work in emergency medicine, I’m extremely comfortable with pets who have medical needs, anxiety, special diets, mobility limitations, or who simply need a little extra patience and understanding. I have hands-on experience monitoring anesthesia, administering medications (including injections), recognizing early signs of illness, and handling urgent situations calmly and efficiently. That said — I also absolutely love the fun side of pet care. Long walks, enrichment play, structured routines, and making sure your pet feels safe and happy while you’re away are just as important to me.

Julie is fantastic! Reliable and always on time for our scheduled visits. Terrific communication. My two little yorkies felt at ease with her right away. Julie fed them, administered medication to our senior yorkie, and spent time playing with them every visit. It was a relief to have peace of mind while we were away. Thank you, Julie!!
Liv was absolutely fantastic with my big boy! He cried at windows when she left and he hasn't done that with anyone but me. She actually played with him when she was over and he was SO happy and relaxed after she left. I will most definitely be using her again when I need pet care again!
It was a pleasure to have Rachel watch our dog over Christmas vacation. She gave our pup lots of snuggles and love, and even though we had a snowstorm while we were away she was still willing to come. (We were able to get a neighbor which was wonderful, so hopefully she got to stay home and snuggle up!) We will definitely be using her again!

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.

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 Mount Arlington 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.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
