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'm originally from Bolivia, and animals have given my life a deep sense of purpose. At 15, I rescued my first dog. Sadly, I couldn’t save him — but that moment changed my life. I promised myself I would help as many animals as I could. Since then, I’ve rescued and rehomed over 70 stray animals, two now live in Virginia, and five are still with my family in Bolivia. Through this journey, I’ve cared for animals in critical physical and emotional conditions — including senior dogs needing special medical care, mothers with puppies, and dogs with disabilities. This experience has given me deep knowledge of comprehensive animal care and a strong sense of empathy and patience. I also studied tourism and launched a pet-friendly travel business in Bolivia, planning and leading unforgettable 2–3 day trips with up to 25 dogs. I have strong experience managing groups of dogs in large, open spaces such as hiking trails, green parks, and even on buses during transport. These adventures were designed to create joyful, safe, and enriching experiences for both pets and people. Although I currently can’t have pets at home due to housing restrictions, animals remain at the center of my heart. Working with them allows me to stay connected to what brings me the most happiness. I offer care rooted in real experience, deep compassion, and a lifelong love for these incredible beings. I’m currently studying as I prepare to begin a career in education, so my schedule is very flexible and allows me to accommodate last-minute calls or changes. Going for walks is already part of my daily routine — I enjoy walking long distances, so combining that habit with dog walking feels like a perfect match. I also have the freedom to study from anywhere, which means I can easily spend time in homes or outdoor spaces while caring for pets, giving them the attention and companionship they need throughout the day. At the moment, I’m unable to care for pets in my home due to housing restrictions. However, I’m fully available to care for pets in my clients’ homes or during walks and drop-in visits. I always provide gentle, respectful, and attentive care, making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved in their own space.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for many different pets. Growing up, I helped raise two family dogs and cats so I’m comfortable with both indoor pets and larger animals. For 13 years I was the proud mom to my Shih Tzu, Bruno, who taught me just how much love, patience, and daily care go into being a great pet parent. Though he recently passed🙏, the experience of caring for him still shapes how I look after every animal in my care. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or just making sure they’re comfortable and happy while you’re away, I’m here to give them the kind of care you’d want for them. I currently work remotely so I am able to give your pet all the attention they deserve and need. I can leave any time for walks and vet appointments. I’m a responsible and attentive caregiver who takes pet safety seriously. With years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and adapting to each pet’s individual needs.

About: Hi there! I’m Maria, and I absolutely love caring for animals — they’ve been a part of my life since I was little. I’ve volunteered at Paws NY and other dog-focused organizations, and helped friends and family with their pets over the years. I also have special experience with senior dogs, having cared for my own Bichon Frise, who lived to 16. That taught me patience, compassion, and how to make pets feel comfortable and loved at every stage of life. I treat every furry friend as if they were my own, with plenty of affection, play, and attention💗🐶 **What I Offer: - One-on-one care: Only one dog at a time, so your pet gets my full attention. -Never alone: Your pet will always have company and care. -Calm, safe home: Private, quiet, no kids or other pets. -Perfect location: Very easy access, calm, family-friendly and beautiful neighborhood! -Active or relaxed pets: Walks, play, and exercise for energetic pups; gentle, patient care for older or calmer pets. -Health & safety: Administering medications (pills, injections, topical treatments), following special diets, and monitoring senior pets. -Enrichment & comfort: Puzzle toys, scent games, and extra care for anxious or nervous pets. -Frequent updates: Photos and videos via WhatsApp or your preferred method, so you can see your pet happy and safe in real time. -Flexible scheduling: Drop-ins, overnight stays, or extended care tailored to your pet’s routine. -Grooming basics: Brushing, paw checks, and keeping coats clean and comfortable I have a very flexible schedule and can care for your pets in the mornings, afternoons, or evenings — whatever works best for you! I love keeping dogs and cats happy with walks, playtime, and cuddles. We care for pets as a family — my mom, dad, and I all share the responsibility, so your furry friend will never be alone while staying with us 💗 I have my own apartment in a very calm and beautiful neighborhood— it’s a very pet-friendly area! Safety, calm, and love are my top priorities. I make sure every pet feels secure, happy, and cared for. I adapt to each pet’s personality and routine, creating an environment you can feel confident leaving them in.

About: I’m a caring and responsible pet lover who enjoys spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

I’m available for pet sitting, walks, and drop-in visits around my work schedule. I’m especially available on my days off, and I’m happy to work with owners to find a time that works best for their pets.

About: Hi! I’m Leandro, originally from São Paulo, Brazil, where animals were always part of the family. I grew up surrounded by dogs and cats, many of them rescued from the streets, so caring for animals has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up with so many different personalities taught me that every animal has their own way of communicating, trusting, and showing affection. Some are immediately friendly, others need patience and a little space before they feel comfortable. I’ve always loved getting to know those differences. I have 8 years of pet care experience, and what matters most to me is making sure your pet feels safe, understood, and genuinely cared for. I treat every animal as an individual, not just another booking. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, affectionate, or a little stubborn, I’m happy to meet them exactly where they are. I’m a writer and work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to spend with your pets! I love having animals around while I write, whether they’re curled up next to me, keeping me company, or reminding me it’s time for a walk or a little playtime. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, overnight stays, and extended pet sitting. I can easily adapt my day to your pet’s routine, making sure they get the attention, exercise, companionship, and care they’re used to. Having grown up surrounded by dogs and cats, many of them rescued, I’ve learned that every animal has their own personality, boundaries, and way of feeling comfortable. I always take the time to get to know each pet rather than expecting them to immediately warm up to me. Some want affection right away, while others need a little patience and space, and that’s perfectly fine! Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I make sure to follow their usual routines, keep their environment clean and safe, and pay attention to their behavior and needs. I’m also happy to send photos and updates so you can feel at ease while we’re together.

About: Both my husband and I have hands-on experience as pet owners and frequent Rover clients! I’m from Utah and my husband, Ikumi, is from Japan, where I lived for 9 years. We actually brought our Golden Retriever, Arc, overseas with us from Japan, so we are incredibly attuned to keeping dogs safe and comfortable during big life transitions. Between the two of us, we’ve grown up with French Bulldogs, Labs, Poodles, and Australian Shepherds, giving us a great foundation for handling all different sizes and energy levels. Because we use Rover for Arc, we know exactly what pet parents want: excellent communication, lots of photos, and total peace of mind. We decided to become sitters because we simply love dogs and want Arc to have regular playmates. Whether your dog is young and playful or an older dog who just wants to lounge, we will treat your pup exactly like our own! Between my hybrid work schedule (three days in the office, two at home) and my husband’s evening part-time schedule working at MLB games, we have pet care completely covered! There is almost always someone at home, meaning your dog will rarely be without human company. For exercise, we stick to a great routine: we usually take Arc out for a dedicated hour-long walk together during the day, supplemented by reliable morning and nightly potty breaks. When your dog stays with us, their comfort and safety are our top priorities. We maintain a secure, clean, and entirely dog-friendly environment, and we always closely supervise playtime, especially as your pup gets to know our dog, Arc! Our philosophy is to let your dog set the pace and we will match their energy. If they are feeling active, we love bringing out the toys for a fun play session in the home. If they are older, anxious, or just want to relax, we are more than happy to just cuddle and chill. We strictly follow your specific rules and routines regarding feeding, treats, and furniture privileges to ensure a trustworthy, stress-free stay that feels just like their own home.

About: I am an army veteran that has spent his recent years caring for dogs both of owners and strays and have loved the experience. Pets provide a joy and fulfillment that I can find nowhere else. I believe that pets deserve more than just responsible attention and a loving home, they deserve to be treated with utmost dignity and should also have a learning experience in the process. I have become well versed in training of dogs and would be more than happy to either review or even instill basic training skills. Pets and dogs in particular have become a necessary factor of my own personal happiness. It would be my honor and privilege to be able to provide a special care for a special little friend. I'm a lifelong dog lover, and caring for pets fits seamlessly into my daily routine. Since I'm home 24/7, your dog will never be left alone for long and will get all the attention, love, and companionship they need. I know how hard it can be to leave your furry family member behind, so my goal is to give you peace of mind while your pup enjoys a happy, comfortable stay. I'll gladly send photo and video updates so you can see how much fun they're having. Your pup will have plenty of room to play in my fully fenced backyard, with a dog door so they can head in and out whenever they like. I work from home and I'm here all day, so your dog won't be left alone for long stretches. I'm available 24/7, so whether you need daytime drop-ins, overnight stays, or extended boarding, I can give your dog consistent attention and care while you're away.

About: I’ve grown up with a dog almost my entire life, so caring for pets has always been a huge part of my life! I recently lost my own dog, who was 13 years old, so I have experience caring for dogs at all different stages of life, including senior dogs who may need a little extra love and patience. I have never done professional dog walking but am super excited to start with Rover!! I know firsthand how much our pets mean to us, and I would treat yours just like my own! I absolutely love being around animals and would love the opportunity to give your best friend all the love, attention, and care they deserve! I currently work a few hours a day, so I have a pretty flexible schedule and am available most afternoons/nights! As a former college athlete, I love staying active and getting outside, so going on walks and spending time with your pet would fit perfectly into my everyday routine! I’m happy to work with your schedule as best as I can and make sure your pet gets plenty of love, exercise, and attention! I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone, because I would want the exact same for my own! I will always make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m happy to follow whatever routines, instructions, or preferences you have, whether that's feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or just extra cuddles! I also love sending pictures and updates so you can feel at ease knowing your furry best friend is happy and being well taken care of…I know how much those photos meant to me:)

About: What sets me apart is the personalized care and attention I provide to every pet. I understand that every dog and cat has their own personality, routine, comfort level, and specific needs, so I take the time to learn what makes each pet feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m comfortable providing basic training reinforcement, exercise, feeding, medication reminders, and attentive care for both young and senior pets. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, still learning the basics, or needs a little extra patience and support as they get older, I adapt my approach to them. I treat every pet as I would my own with patience, consistency, affection, and genuine care. I work remote and part-time. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I’m able to build walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and quality time into my schedule while maintaining consistency with each pet’s normal routine. I’m also flexible with different schedules and care needs, whether that means an energetic puppy who needs extra activity, a senior pet who needs a slower pace, or a pet who simply needs companionship while their owner is away. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care and treat every pet like they’re my own. I follow each owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications, and basic training while giving each pet plenty of attention and companionship. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure everything is left clean and secure. I also take the time to understand each pet’s individual personality, habits, age, and needs so I can provide customized care just as I would for my own pet. I have a small poodle who loves to make new friends, and we can head down to my community dog park downstairs or park up the block. My apartment is dog friendly, spacious, and includes a high fenced balcony for some fresh air. We also share toys if wanted!

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.

As of October 2026, there are 26,512 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across North Arlington. 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 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 .

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.
