“Janise and her family took excellent care of my girl Moni. She sent regular updates and was quick to reply to my messages. Her home is in a nice neighborhood with a really nice sized yard with a fence that closes securely. Her dog Frankie is a sweet girl who got a long great with my pup. I was out of the country for a week and never once worried about my pup being safe and well cared for! I would happily leave my dog with her again and anyone reading this review can book her with confidence that your dog will be well cared for and safe.”
“Ivette dogsat recently for me in her home and Ivette and her husband took great care of my fur baby Lambo. Their dog Blas was also so sweet and welcoming to Lambo and they had a great time together. Ivette provided wonderful updates and pics during Lambo's stay. As soon as I met Ivette i felt so comfortable leaving Lambo with her. I would highly recommend Ivette and will definitelt utilize her services again in the future.”
“Michael was super attentive to banjo! Great at sending update pictures, asking specific questions about his care, even separating him for meal time + accepting a door dash when he ran out of food. Michael really went the extra mile by keeping banjo for an additional night when my flight was delayed till late. Will book again!”
“Sanaz was great with my dog Whitney! She was super flexible and communicative while I was away. I had no doubt that my pup was in great care the whole time. Will definitely be using her services again!”
“We booked Roman last minute and he was excellent! Frequent videos, pictures, and updates of Jobi were incredibly reassuring as this was his first time staying with someone other than a friend/family member. So glad we have someone reputable in the neighborhood to watch our pup!”
“Ryan and Jefra were the sweetest. They took really good care of my boys and constantly sent a lot of pictures. They were flexible and communicative. I recommend them for sure!”
“Eileen took such good care of Denver. It was like his home away from home, she communicated and sent pictures while he was with her and even sent home print outs which were so cute . She was also flexible with the pick up and drop off times which we really appreciated since it was a last minute book. Denver was happy, we were happy and we will definitely book again!!”
“Kathy was fantastic! Gracie obviously had a fabulous time and didn't want to leave. Kathy sent us pictures and videos during the stay and was super responsive to all communication. Would 100% recommend Kathy to anyone, and hope she's available whenever we need a sitter in the future!”
“This was Fig’s second stay with Xander. Drop off to pick up was smooth with pictures and updates along the way. Fig was excited to see Xander when I dropped him off which was a good sign. Looking forward using Xander again soon!”
“Stefan has looked after Finn twice now, and Finn loves going to stay with him. Stefan takes great care of him, is reliable and easy to communicate with, and I feel very comfortable leaving Finn in his care. Finn comes home happy and well looked after. I would definitely recommend Stefan.”
“The reviews are 100% accurate! I would give Paola ten stars if I could. She was AMAZING with my special needs senior dog: patient, understanding, caring and supportive. It was so comforting to know that my vulnerable little dog was under the care of such a compassionate and conscientious caregiver. I am truly blessed to have found Paola!”
“Im very grateful for the help of Ysabel watching my cat Oscar for a month, she took great care of him and always kept me posted and sent me pictures. I would definitely recommend her and rebook her next time, many thanks to Ysabel for the amazing help with my cat.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I can’t say enough good things about our dog sitter. She watched my dog for a full week and took excellent care of him. My dog is elderly and has a luxating patella in his back knee, and she was very attentive to his needs and limitations. She handled him carefully, made sure he was comfortable, and truly paid attention to his health. She kept us updated throughout the entire stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. When we picked him up, he was happy, calm, and clearly very well taken care of. On top of that, she even washed him the day before pickup, so he came home freshly cleaned, which was such a thoughtful touch. You can tell she genuinely cares about animals. I would 100% trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, loving dog sitter.”
“Ashley was so amazing - she went above and beyond to make sure my dogs were cared for (especially when my little pup was having stomach issues unexpectedly). Nothing phased her and she was super communicative along the way. Can’t recommend her enough. Trust her 100%!”
“Anastasiia was awesome! I boarded my dog with her while on a work trip. She was super reliable and sent regular updates with pictures and my baby (dog) seemed so well cared for! She also communicated quickly and was very flexible when my flight was delayed. Would definitely book with her again in the future!!”
“Christie is so amazing! She was able to watch Mocha when we needed a sitter last minute. Mocha instantly loved her and settled in quickly with Christie and her sweet kitties. Christie I felt very comfortable knowing Mocha was in such great hands. Would definitely recommend Christie to watch your fur babies(:”
“I have a big fluffy pup and she had a blast with Sal! I felt very comfortable leaving her with him, and he even sent a few pictures with updates. She looked SO happy in every single one...Thank you!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - North Bergen
I appreciate Darlene so much and the care the provides for my Cashew is exceptional. Anyone with a senior dog knows that it can be quite challenging to meet their changing needs. I can rest easy while away when Cashew is with Darlene; she is an excellent communicator and goes above and beyond to make sure the dogs under her care are happy and healthy. I am so grateful to have found her.
Romina was such a great, communicative sitter for our dog, Milo. He quickly got comfortable with her and showed no separation anxiety at drop-off. Romina sent regular updates and shared pictures/videos of him relaxed in her home or galloping about. He spent 4 nights with her and we were always reassured that he was well-cared for. He seemed happy as ever at pick up and we were more than pleased with Romina as our dog sitter!
Addy was fantastic all around! We had a pleasant meet and greet for our pups at the park and then was incredibly flexible with my drop off and pickup times. I could tell Sebastian had a blast with her youngest pup all weekend because he's been asleep since we got home yesterday!! Highly recommend Addy as a sitter and plan to book her again in the near future!
The moment we entered Aviance’s block to drop Churro off, she was SO excited to see her again! Churro was pulling on her leash, running right up to her with her tail wagging like crazy—it meant everything to me 🤍 Aviance also sent me updates about Churro multiple times a day while I was away, which was such a huge relief. I felt completely at ease knowing Churro was in such good hands. Highly recommend Aviance!
Eileen was so communicative and sent pictures and videos of my baby Diesel everyday. This was our first time leaving him and first time using Rover so I was nervous. But Eileen eased my nerves by having open communication and resounding when we reached out. Will definitely book with her again.

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 North Bergen 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 North Bergen 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 North Bergen.
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 North Bergen. On Rover:
- 85% 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 North Bergen 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.
