About: I come from a family of veterinarians so I can’t remember a time when I wasn’t around animals or caring for them. I’ve been lucky to have an array of pets including dogs, cats, ferrets, rabbits, squirrels, gerbils, hamsters, guinea pigs, turtles and exotic fish. I’m currently in medical school and trying to earn some extra cash. I’m busy during the day due to school, but can study anywhere in the evenings to house sit. I can walk, feed, and keep pet company. I’m used to following long instructions for care, such as, different times and types of medications or supplements that need to be given.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and understand that every pet has unique needs at every stage of life. I helped care for my family’s West Highland Terrier for nearly 18 years, giving me experience with everything from energetic puppy years to the extra patience and attention senior dogs need. I also have experience caring for my parents’ young dog, dogs in my extended family and am comfortable keeping up with playful, active pets. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners peace of mind that they’re in caring, dependable hands. As a teacher currently on summer break, I have flexible daytime availability for dog walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. I teach private music lessons in the late afternoons (typically between 4:00 and 7:00 PM, Monday through Thursday), but I’m happy to work with clients to find times that fit their pets’ needs. Depending on location and scheduling, I may also be able to accommodate visits between lessons. I also have availability on Fridays and weekends, making it easier to provide reliable, consistent care. I believe communication is key and will always do my best to be flexible while ensuring your pet receives the attention and care they deserve. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is helping them feel comfortable by keeping them in their familiar routine. I’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any other preferences you have for your pet’s care. Whether your pet enjoys lots of attention or prefers a quieter approach, I’ll tailor my care to their individual personality and needs. I’ll also treat your home with the same respect I would my own, ensuring everything is left clean, secure, and just as I found it. After each visit, I’ll send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: Hello! My name is Emma, and I’m a 24-year-old dog lover and dog mom to my dog, Marcus. Dogs have been a huge part of my life since high school, and over the years I’ve cared for both my own pets and dogs belonging to friends and family. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from playful puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and care. I also helped care for my family’s German Shepherd, Kookie, who taught me so much about the love, loyalty, and responsibility that come with being a pet owner. I understand that every dog is unique and deserves individualized care. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is always to treat your pet the same way I treat my own dog—with patience, kindness, love, and plenty of attention. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member so I’ll do everything in my power to provide a safe, positive, and caring experience for both you and your pet. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I currently work part-time as a physical therapy aide and attend school part-time in the evenings, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule for pet care throughout the week. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, doggy day care, and house sitting in your home. My class schedule is Monday and Tuesday evenings, and I work Wednesday and Thursday afternoons as well as Saturday mornings, which means I am available during many daytime hours and can provide reliable care before and after my commitments. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their normal routine, so I do my best to follow feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication instructions, and any other preferences you have for your pet. I am dependable, communicative, and happy to send photo and video updates so you can feel connected to your furry family member while you’re away. Whether your dog needs a walk, companionship during the day, or overnight care, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. Before every booking, I take the time to learn about your dog’s routine, personality, likes, dislikes, and any special needs they may have. I am comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, and both small and large breeds. During walks and visits, I stay attentive to ensure your dog’s safety and comfort at all times. When caring for pets in your home, I treat both your pet and your home with the same respect and care that I would want for my own. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away.
About: Our Why? We have Huskies, and while still offering our service to other breeds, we highlight that it takes a fellow Husky owner to understand what a Husky needs. Despite their mischievous shenanigans, Houdini escape attempts, endless fur-sheddings, high-pitched vocalizations, bubbly, energized personalities, and hyperactive frolicking, we adore huskies. We understand finding experienced, dependable, loving, and trustworthy caregivers for your Husky isn't easy. That's why we are here to help. We currently have two friendly young huskies (one male and one female- fixed and crate-trained). We also have experience with English bulldogs, Sharpeis, Chow-Chows, Labs, Doodles, and Boxers. We only offer care for dogs based upon the comfortability of the match to our pet-care style and demeanor. We love our pets as we will love yours. We are focused on weekends, holidays, and summer care. We are open to possible weekday arrangements if your dog is crate-trained. Before booking us, a drop-by visit is required to test the compatibility of all humans and dogs. A few things: Special note-while we have never owned a French bulldog, we are particularly interested in learning to care for this breed. Your pet must be spayed or nurtured to receive boarding in our home. Also, we are sorry but we cannot offer care for full or mixed Pit Bull breeds. How does pet care fit into your daily and weekly lives? Our pets receive two meals a day, comprising dry food and water. Our pets are crate-trained and remain crated when owners are away. Most of the time, there is an adult in the house. Our dogs can access a large fenced backyard with green grass and trees. Our dogs walk with owners through nearby Branch Brooke Park and visit the dog park almost daily. Our dogs are crated during adult meal times and sleep in the main bedroom on the floor, side couch, or end of bed at night. We maintain a clean home and provide puppy pads during inclement weather to avoid mud and chaos. Pets have access to some rooms, but not all rooms in the house. Toys and treats are provided regularly. Linens on beds where animals may sleep are washed and switched out regularly. Our gate is blocked off on both sides because huskies are known for escaping. Our pets have ID collars and ID dog tags and wear GPS trackers during the day. Our dogs are up-to-date on immunizations and have been spayed/neutered. We don't hit our dogs with our hands or objects but use basic word commands. Training dogs is always a work in progress. They are both loved for their uniqueness. We only plan to care for pets in our home. We have a large and welcoming home.

“Molly was great! She was able to help me out very last minute and took great care of my cat, Daphne. She spent some time playing with her every visit and sent the best pictures and updates. Thank you!!”

“Deliris was a great help! She took her time with my kitties and gave them some very needed interaction. She is a great communicator and never left me wondering about what was going on. I would definitely book her again!”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’m a volunteer at Companion Animal Alliance (Baton Rouge, LA), where I spend time walking and caring for shelter dogs, and I have experience with dogs who can be a little stubborn about taking their medication or socializing with others. I know every pet is different, and I’ll make sure yours gets the love, patience, and attention they deserve. I’ll treat your pet like family, so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands I’m on summer break from college, so I have lots of free time and a flexible schedule! That means I can be there whenever your pet needs me, whether it’s for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, or just keeping them company while you’re away. I have a large yard with tons of room for your pup to roam. If they prefer a dog park, it's a quick 5-minute drive away. I also have a very social and playful Yorkie of my own to keep your pup company, but whether or not they meet is completely up to you!

About: I have taken care of family members dogs on and off since I was 10. I also have a cat myself so I am well equipped to take care of your fur baby! I am currently on summer break from college, so I have a free schedule to take care of your pup through the week, including weekends. I am primarily looking to do dog walking services, where your dog and I will walk around town, and get our steps in together! I may be open to house visits after getting to know your pet.
“Kelly is the absolute best. This was our first time on Rover, and her communications were clear and quick, and she did great work reassuring us that our pup was in good hands. Loved the photographs, and really appreciated the time she took to communicate with us by phone and by text. We’re only slightly concerned that our pup now likes her more than us! 😀 Hugely impressed with Kelly - she’ll take fab care of your pups.”

“Jessica was fantastic with our cat Tammy, and took great care of her while we were away. Highly recommend her, and would definitely use her services again. Thank you.”

“Jade was incredible with my cat Daphne! She sent lots of pictures and videos and gave great updates. She spent lots of quality time with her and I came home to a very content kitty :)”

About: Not only have I owned a dog for all of my life but I have also taken care of dogs for a couple of years now. The most I’ve taken care of at a time was 2. I’ve also taken care of puppies and senior dogs. I am a teacher so I’m out of my day job by 3:30 and have plenty of time in the afternoons and evenings to spend time with your pet. I can also go before my job to walk your pet, feed your pet and spend some time with them. Whenever taking care of pets, I make sure to leash them when walking, watch them when in the yard and ensure safety even in the house. I love on them, I’ll play with them and make them feel super loved while you’re away
About: I was a Veterinary Technician for 3 years and I gained many skills as a professional puppy petter and kitten kisser. I can medicate animals effectively and identify and alert the pet parent to potential problems before they become bigger issues. I have a degree in animal behavior and physiology, I've worked at an animal shelter, and I'd love nothing more than to get to know your pet and spend some time with them! I've got a cat and a dog myself, Chipotle and Guacamole, and they are incredible. I am doing this as a second source of income, so I have plenty of time devoted to playing with your pups or kicking it with your kitties! I will do whatever you feel is best for your pet. Your house, your rules. Obviously the pet's safety is paramount, but after that, youre the boss, boss!
About: I cared for family dogs growing up. I had a rescue dog. I walk dogs for neighbors and referrals. I enjoy spending time with animals! I have 2 school age children. I want to have a flexible schedule to be there for my children while earning pay doing something I love! I have a fenced yard and a deck to keep pets safe where I can keep a close eye on them. Safety is my priority.
About: I have the unique perspective of being both a "dog person" and a "cat person". I grew up caring for my lively Jack Russell Terrier and I now live with my two cats. I have a deep love for all animals and I am highly attentive to their needs and health. As a college student, I have a very light schedule over the summer, so I have plenty of time to spend caring for your pets! I am very attentive to your pets' needs. I have experience safely walking dogs of all sizes, letting them enjoy themselves while still keeping them secure. I am cautious when it comes to keeping the house secure when checking in and making sure they are eating well.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - North Arlington
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!!
Jadis was an excellent choice to watch my two dogs while I was away on vacation. From the very beginning, she made everything feel effortless…communicating clearly, showing genuine care, and keeping me updated so I never felt unsure about how my dogs were doing. My dogs were calm and happy when I returned, which says a lot about the attention and routine Jadis maintained. I could tell they were comfortable in Jadis’s presence. I’m genuinely grateful to have found someone trustworthy. I’d absolutely book her again for future trips and would recommend Jadis to anyone looking for a dependable, caring dog sitter.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a North Arlington stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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 North 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 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 North Arlington with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
